Unfortunately, unless you set up an iCloud account on the iPod and turned on Find My iPod before it was stolen, no.  Even if you did do that, there are many ways it could fail (for example, the thief could wipe it clean or not try to connect to a network or the network's location might not be known).  But, you could try it by logging in to iCloud and using the Find My iPhone applet.

    Have your friend put them back on.   That's how the songs got on there in the first place.

  • I tried to download old purchases onto my ipod on my pc screen it popped up with this "You can download past purchases on this computer with just one apple IDevery 90 days.You cannot associate this computer with a different apple ID for 6 days"

    Help is needed i payed a lot for my purchases !!!

    You can use multiple AppleIDs to purchase new music but you are limited as to how frequently you can change authorizations for re-downloading  past purchases.  It may well be a measure to deter piracy by stopping a group of people from going around to a friend's computer and downloading purchases on the other person's computer.  It is easy to avoid by making sure you have backup copies on drives at home so you never need to redownload anything.

  • Is there a way to track a lost iPod touch?

    I recently lost my iPod touch.  Is there a way of tracking it down?

    I have a feeling that I did not lose it at home, so it would not have an internet connection, so it would not help me.  If I change my Apple ID passwords here, will that at least lock it out of my account so that someone cannot access it?

  • When attempting to purchase a song from i-tunes that was on an old ipod that I had to replace, the song is marked as 'purchased' and grayed out.  Is there a way that I can download these previously purchased items onto my new ipod?

    Lori,
    If you upgrade to iTunes 10.3, you can redownload your past purchases from the iCloud.  Just go to the home page of the iTunes Store and click on "Purchased" under "Quick Links."  It will bring up a list of your past purchases that are not currently in your library, with a little arrow icon that lets you download.

    Call Apple with the Serial and they will send you the ones that came with the Mac. Or search the Net.

    If your iPod was purchased with a credit card, check with the card company.  Some cards provide Purchase Protection insurance which will replace or repair any item lost, stolen or damaged within 90 days of purchase.

  • I was given an 80gb ipod classic formated with mac os. Is there any way to connect it to my windows pc so I can transfer the song to my library?

    I was given an 80gb ipod classic formatted with mac os. Is there any way to connect it to my windows pc so I can transfer the song to my library? When I try to connect to my pc I get a message asking me if I want to format the drive. I want to try to save the 15000 songs that are already on the ipod. Any suggestions?

    The iPod and iTunes are designed so that you cannot transfer music on an iPod to another iTunes Library. This is because the 15,000 songs do not belong to you and you have no legal right to keep them.

  • You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days

    I have a mac which my fiancee and I share. There are 2 separate accounts and 2 separate apple ids used to buy different music (i.e. we have 2 separate iphones and music collections).
    I received the following error (see uploaded image) which states that, "you can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days".
    Now, when I sync my iTunes and iPhone only some music that I have previously purchases is affected. For some reason they failed to sync with my iPhone and become unavailable in my iTunes ("file cannot be found"). When I deleted the record I saw that it became available for download in iTunes and then discovered this issue.
    I have legally purchased the music and just want to be able to sync the files legitimately. It just seems very restrictive to say that you have to have 2 different machines for every account (i.e. you cannot have multiple users on a device with their own accounts which each have their own Apple IDs).

    Hi
    No - that is the issue - both my husband and I use the same computer and want to be able to use our individual Apple IDs so can access our download content e.g. I-books that we have purchased through our other MAC devices such as I-Pad.  In the past, we had four people using one computer with no problem regarding Apple ID.   In the newer operating system, we are now restricted to one at a time - it means one of us is blocked out from accessing our content for a period of 90 days.   Have you any suggestions on how we can both use our individual Apple IDs with the same lap-top?  We have set up discrete accounts so we log on to the computer individually.  Many thanks for any help.

  • I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same fam

    I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same family.

    Welcome to the world of digital media. Your can't really transfer it. I don't know what the rules are about transferring to your spouse but I do know that in some cases when you die, your heirs cannot inherit your digital media. This is why there is still an advantage to buying the CD since the usage rights belong to whomever holds the physical media.
    A possible workaround is to burn the songs to a music CD with yout account (tracks only without song titles) and then having your wife upload it as a regular music CD onto her account. It's been a while since i've done this so I'm not sure if it would work now.
    Please note that I'm not advocating copyright and/or TOS violations. I'm only suggesting ways to copy music for your own personal use which has traditonally been permitted. I only did this because I wanted to convert iTunes songs to mp3 files so I could burn them onto a data CD for use in my car. It would make sense that since married couples are a joint entity, this would be personal use.
    Also, I'm not a lawyer so don't take this as legal advice.

  • Automatic Downloads and Strange Error Message: "You can auto-download purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days"

    Hi gang-
    Yesterday I noticed that iTunes on my iMac had not auto-downloaded several new songs that I had recently purchased on my iPhone.    In iTunes Preferences, under Store -> Automatic Downloads, I always have Music selected so all songs purchased from any device using my Apple ID normally download automatically.
    To troubleshoot this, I double-checked my Preferences and sure enough, Music was de-selected under Automatic Downloads.   I then Selected it and clicked OK.   Here's where it gets weird and I get this error message:
    This computer is already associated with an Apple ID.  You can auto-download purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 84 days.
    I read and re-read this message and none of it seems to apply to me.   I have only one Apple ID.   I am currently logged in with iTunes to that one Apple ID.   All my iTunes Music ever has been purchased with that one Apple ID.   I am not trying to associate this computer or any other with a different Apple ID.
    I logged iTunes out and then back in again and tried all the above- but same error message.
    So, as it is now, I am unable to turn on Automatic Downloads in iTunes.   
    Anyone know what the heck is going on?
    Thanks!
    Dave

    Hey gang-
    Okay, this gets more and more bizarre.   I sent a support email to Apple and basically they said  "...it seems that someone else associated your Mac with their Apple ID. That's the reason your purchases won't download."
    Yikes!   My wife and I live alone- and we have exactly one and only one Apple ID.    Would somebody have needed physical access to my iMac to do that?
    Support then said "You can view which devices or computers are currently associated, remove unused devices or computers, and see how long before they can be associated with a different Apple ID from the Account Information page in iTunes on your computer."
    Okay- so I logged into My Account in iTunes.   On the list of associated devices, my own iMac is NOT on that list.   But I am logged in under the same Apple ID I've had for years on that iMac.
    So my big question right now is...if my iMac (that I've owned for 5 years) has somehow been dis-associated from my Apple ID, how do I find out what Apple ID it is associated with?
    Thanks gang for trying to help me unravel a mystery.
    Dave
    PS- Here's an Apple Tech article on iTunes associations, but it doesn't really go beyond what we've discussed above:

  • Someone stole my 27 imac, is there any way to track it?

    My 27" IMac was stolen.  is there any way to track it by using the serial number?

    Unless you had it registered with Find My Mac via iCloud or installed third-party anti-theft software, there is no way to track it. If you need to, take precautions by canceling credit cards, checking accounts, etc. from which financial and personal data can be used to steal your money or identity. If you had it covered by insurance report it to the insurance company. Terminate your old email address and get a new one.
    Otherwise, you are out the computer and whatever is on it.
