I'm running Mac OS 10.5.8. I want to update to 10.7 or later so I can run iTunes 11 with my new iphone 5C. What update should I download?

If you do not know whether your iMac has a PowerPC or Intel processor, do "About this Mac" from your Apple menu. You will get this:
If the line by my second highlight arrow includes the word "PowerPC" as in the image, you can upgrade no higher. If it says, "intel," you can--as Niel indicates--update to at least 10.6.8 and possible higher.

How many songs can I fit into a 16gb new ipod nano

How mnay songs can i fit into the new ipod nano 16gb?
Thanks BH

As many as it can hold. As the size of a song varies depending on its length and bitrate, there is no single number of songs which it can hold.

Itunes won't recognize new Ipod Nano 8GB

Hi, help someone please. The error I'm receiving is: "An Ipod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly. Please disconnect and reconnect the ipod, then try again".
Tried this several times and even reinstalled itunes... didn't work. Tried using a different USB port as well.
All other ipods are working fine when connected. I'm using Windows XP. HELLLPPP please !! it's my kids new Christmas present

I had exactly the same problem - heres the procedure I used - hope it helps ?
It looks a bit daunting but only takes a couple of minutes.
Disconnect iPod
Go into Start - Control Panel - Add/Remove programs
Select iTunes and remove ( don't worry all your music should be safe - mine was still there when I reinstalled )
Next go to apple website, disable your antivirus ( not sure if this is needed, but it's what worked for me) and download and install latest iTunes 9.0.
After installation - close iTunes
Reboot your P.C. and then restart your antivirus.
Next
Go into Control Panel again, then administrative tools( if you can't see admin tools select classic view from the left panel.
Then select computer management - then device manager
Scroll down the list in the right hand panel and expand the universal serial bus controllers section.
Connect your ipod nano - you should hear a bleep and then the details in the USB controllers list should change ( if iTunes starts just close it )
From the USB controllers list select the new addition - it'll either say apple ipod usb or Mass storage device something like that( whichever one has just appeared on connection of your ipod )
Right click on the new entry and select uninstall - at the warning message select ok
wait for it to complete the removal.
Right click the entry again and select scan for hardware changes, keep your ipod connected.
The computer should now find your ipod and reinstall the necessary usb drivers for you.
Next
disconnect your ipod
start iTunes
on your ipod - press and hold centre button and menu for about 8 seconds - apple logo will appear, - then press and hold centre button and rewind for 6 - 8 seconds- ipod will go into a diagnostic mode.
a list will appear on ipod screen
press the centre button and it will select the first parameter on the list then press menu - you will be returned to the diagnostic list but you will be on the second item in the list - once again press the centre button to access, then press menu to return to the list - repeat until you reach the last item on the list "restore". press the centre button and the ipod should restore - apple logo will appear and the ipod will reboot(wait for a minute or so for this to complete )
Now connect to iTunes - hopefully your ipod will show up on the left hand side ( mine did )
click on your ipod on the list - you should now have a screen showing your ipod - it may prompt you to download a newer version of software - click don't download.
on this summary screen select enable disk usage and then click apply - now wait it can take a little while to complete.
When it is finished the apple logo will be back at the top of iTunes.
O.k. this is the fun bit and needs to be done quite quickly !
Read this next section completely before you start
click restore on iTunes.
it will say something like download and restore, click this.
a progress bar will appear - saying extracting software
followed by another progress bar, restoring "your name" iPod
my progress bar then showed 3 or 4 blue dots traveling across the progress bar without actually making any progress.
while this is happening unplug your iPod
press and hold centre button and menu for 8 seconds - apple logo appears
then press and hold centre button and play until it says disk mode.
reconnect your ipod - the progress bar should now slowly complete and at the end say something like ipod will show up on itunes when it reboots.
wait for the apple logo to appear on your ipod, followed by the start screen ( select language )
disconnect
select the language you want to use as from new.
reconnect and then sync as normal - everything should now work.
This is what worked for me - it's a bit long winded but so far so good.
I hope this helps you - it took me about six hours of searching and messing around to finally get this working - my 2 daughters were driving me mad as their new Nano's wouldn't work !!!!

I can't put songs onto my new iPod Nano

I previously had a 30G iPod but replaced it with an 8G nano and now I can't put any songs from iTunes onto my new iPod. I have over 10G in my library and thought it would be as easy as clicking a button to deselect all songs and then selecting only the ones I now want to add into my iPod.
When I attach the nano to a USB, I get a welcome message saying I can do 1 of 2 things and then I hit "continue" then this message comes up that iTunes is accessing the store and that doesn't go away.
I am not sure what to do...Please help!

Hey there Shea 9! I'd recommend taking a look at the following article
The New User's Guide to iPod Nano I linked you directly to step 3 to fill your iTunes and iPod with music.
If you have any other problems try and be a little more specific as to what you are trying to do or what kind of error message you get.

Can you watch movies on the new iPod nano?

I know you can watch movies on the iPod video, but i wasnt sure if i'd be wasting my money on buying a movie from the itunes store and not being able to watch it.
Windows XP

The iPod nano does not support video. The processor is not strong enough, along with other things.
Also, do not try iPod Linux, even though you might hear that its awesome.
1. Even iPod Linux does not support iPod nano downloads.
2. Voids any Warranty you have on yoru iPod.
3. Not unusual for it to leave your iPod as a large domino, and with no warranty, you're out of luck.
I hope this helps!

ITunes doesn't see new iPod nano and creates 'iPod' folders on the Desktop

My mom got a new 5th Gen Nano. When it is connected to my parents' iMac (G5 with built in iSight running Leopard), iTunes doesn't see it. The strange thing is that the iPod itself goes through the normal synching procedures about every 30 seconds, and every time it happens, it creates a new 'iPod' folder on the desktop. The really strange thing is that each folder is actually a mounted volume that cannot be ejected and the only way to remove them is to reboot the system. Right now, there are 11 of those folders on the desktop (I am connected via screen sharing in iChat.
Any idea what to do about this one?

So, I found out how to fix this issue. In "My Computer" right click on the iPod and format it. I chose to format it using FAT and Default allocation size. After that, I opened iTunes and it recognized my iPod Shuffle. It said it wasn't formatted properly but gave me the option to restore it to factory defaults which fixed everything. Way to go Self. Thank you. You're Welcome

HT1727 I lost my old iPod and bought a new one. The old one had many of MY personally owned and legally bought CDs on it. I have those iTunes backed up ant now I can't seem to "synch" them to the new iPod nano.

I can't seem to synch my new iPod nano to the legally purchased music from CDs that had been on my old iPod which I've lost.
I had a backup of all those iTunes that I want to import to the new nano.
How can I "synch" the new iPod nano to the music I see in an iTune library? The new iPod nano displays "no music" and
doesn't play anything.

Hello PrettyinPinkInk,
You might consider restoring the iPhone, then removing the SIM card after activating the iPhone, so as to use it as an iPod Touch. This should prevent any unwanted association with a phone number, and thus, voicemail, as well.
Using an iPhone without a wireless service plan

Video not working on new ipod nano (3rd gen)

Just bought a new generation ipod nano. When registering, I got a free movie short and a TV show episode. It did not seem to fully download on to Itunes. I have updated itunes to 7.5. I get an error message that says that I can't play video on my new ipod nano, which it clearly has the capability to do. Any suggestions? Not sure how to re-download freebie video and TV shows.

Does the video play in iTunes
if so right click and select "convert to ipod/iphone format"
if not click "store" in the bar and click "check for purchaces"

I cannot download my old itunes library to my new ipod - please help!!!!

Unfortunately in August 2006 someone nicked my Ipod mini - thanks! So my insurance co. replaced it with an ipod nano. I've installed the new software disk that came with my ipod nano and hooked up with the old itunes library to my new ipod nano. Simple huh? Not likely. It says I have too many tunes in my itunes library to download to my new ipod. However the mini and nano are both the same size -4G so why now is it telling my I have too many songs to download to my ipod nano? I have even deselected some from the library but no luck. My old ipod mini was not full to capacity anyway? any ideas?
It could be that my current pc is not logged to the internet - AOL fault currently being sorted but surely that should not stop me updating my ipod? The tunes are in the library the new 4g ipod (allbeit a nano and not a mini as was) is connected yet the **** thing says I have too many tunes selcted to download WHEN I KNOW I DONT! Help......... please does anyone have a clue where i'm going wrong its driving my nuts!

Why not? What happens when you try?
Is the content selected to sync?

How do I get iTunes/Windows to recognize my ipod nano?

iTunes Match is shut off on my iPad. The problem is that when I attempt to turn iTunes Match on by going to Settings, Music, and touch iTunes Match, it briefly switches on, then shuts off and displays the message that I am not subscribed. But my computer indicates that I am subscribed. iTunes Match worked on my iPad when I first subscribed, but now it keeps insisting that I am not subscribed..

Hi Divine Inspiration,
You wouldn't connect the iPod to the iPad for data transfers. Music is stored and shared either through a computer or iCloud.
This article gives an overview of moving music and data off the iPad.

I have a MacBook with Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and iTunes 11.0.1. When I tether my new iPod Nano, the icon shows up on my desktop, but does not show up under devices in iTunes. The Nano says it is connected and synching, but I cannot download music if it doesn't show up under devices.

Hi,
Have you managed to solve this problem? if yes, please highlight how you solved it...i'm facing same problem with my new Iphone 5S but udner Windows, thanks.

I have a new ipod nano and have created an Apple ID and provided all of my account details including address (shipping and billing and debit card). When trying to buy music through itunes I am told to review my account details. i.e. I cannot use itunes!!

I have a new ipod nano but at the moment I am unable to download music through itunes. I'm so disappointed. I have created an Apple ID, reviewed and inputted all of my data for my account and still get told to 'review account' because my ID has not 'been used with Itunes before. Why is this happening and why don't apple have a more intuative way of dealing with this.
Please help, I am completely frustrated.

You'll either have to redeem an iTunes gift card, or create a new ID by following the directions here:

I only have 16bit windows vista on my laptop. Can I use my iPad to download songs from iTunes Store and sync to my new iPod Nano?

I have a 16bit vista laptop which is unreliable and I do not wish to use it to transfer songs to my new iPod Nano. Can I sync downloads from my Apple iPad instead?

You need to contact Apple to get the questions reset. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.
Whichever method you use, you probably won't get a response until the 26th. If you absolutely must make a purchase before then, create a new Apple ID; you won't be able to transfer previous purchases or iTunes Store credit to it.
