I have a new ipod classic, not sure what which version but is brand new. Do I need to purchase sd or hd videos from itunes for my classic?

Hi Powell73,
Your iPod Classic will most likely work with Standard Definition (SD) video content. You may find the following articles helpful in that regards:

TS1567 I have an old ipod nano. How do I download the songs I purchased from itunes onto my older ipod?

How do I download the songs I purchased from itunes onto my older ipod nano...I believe it is a 2nd generation? I plug it into my computer, but nothing happens!!!

Hello shay82578,
It sounds like you are trying to sync music from iTunes to your iPod nano. I found some articles with steps to sync music to your iPod:
If you are using iTunes 11, you will want to follow the steps in this article:
iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12313
If you are using an earlier version of iTunes, you can follow the steps in this article:
iTunes: Syncing media content to iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351
To be able to sync music from iTunes to your iPod nano, the music will need to be on the computer rather than streaming from iTunes in the Cloud. You can find the steps to download your purchased music to your computer's hard drive under the section titled, "Apps, Books, Music, Movies, or TV shows on a computer" in the following article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

I have a new iPod Classic 160Gb. i have an iTunes Account, it recognizes my device but will not sync my library of music to my new iPod. What do I need to do?

I have a new ipod Classic 160GB. I already have an Itunes account. The Itunes account recognizes my device but will not sync my library to this new device.
What do I need to do?

Hi Amy2250,
Have you tried to sync music to the iPod via the iPod subdirectory of iTunes? To do this, plug your iPod into your computer, go into iTunes, click on the iPod tab, click on 'Music' in the iPod subdirectory and select whether you want to sync your whole iTunes library or just selected songs and press sync.
Alternatively, have you tried manually transferring music onto the iPod using the 'drag and drop' method? To do that, go into iTunes with your iPod connected, click on the iPod tab, in the iTunes iPod Classic subdirectory click on the 'Summary' tab, then tick the box saying 'Manually manage music' and click save. Then, in the same subdirectory click on the 'On this iPod' tab and click on Music. Then, select the songs you want to transfer either in Finder or Windows Explorer, select the songs you want to copy to the iPod and drag them to the blank list in the 'On this iPod' area of iTunes you just opened.
Good luck,

I have a new iPod Touch and am trying to download photos for the first time. Both iPhoto & Image Capture recognize the device but don't seem to recognize the photos, or at least I can't import them. Nothing happens when I click on anything in either.

If you manually open iPhoto do you not see the photos?
Maybe here:
iOS: Unable to import photos or device not recognized as a camera
Yu are trying to impoort photos taken by or saved to the iPod, right? If the photos were synced to the iPod then iPhot does not work.

I have a new iPod touch that will not turn on, nor will it connect to iTunes. Any suggestions?

I have a new iPod touch that will not turn on, nor will it connect to iTunes. Any suggestions?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

itunes is not recognizing my ipod. there is no sync under file. I need to download the music just purchased from itunes.
can anyone help?

Do you see your iPod under Devices on the left side of the iTunes window in the source list when it's connect to your Mac?
BTW... you sync iTunes media from the tabs in the iTunes menu, not from the File menu unless you are transferring iTunes purchases from the iPod to your Mac.
Might need to zoom to see this graphic. I have "Music" selected as an example.

Having trouble syncing music videos and playlists to my new iPod classic, already have an iTunes account, have an iPod nano, what am i doing wrong?

You may want to check ur settings. when you plug in ur ipod make sure it is highlighted then at the top of the page you will see tabs Summary Music Podcast Info....click on the MUSIC tab...in that box there will be 2 options:
Sync Music
Entire Music Library
Selected playlist, artist, albums, and genres
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE CHECKED OFF ENTIRE MUSIC LIBRARY
I hope this works....Let me know

I have a new ipod classic...

I just got a new ipod classic 120 gb model. It does this thing where while the ipod is showing the usual album cover and the name of the song, the time remaining and so on. After about a minute and a half, the screen changes where it's only showing the time in big numbers and the battery indicator only instead of the usual screen. why is it doing this, and is there any way to get it to stop doing that and show the album art and the song like normal. The older ipods did not do this. I have not been able to find any information about this. Thanks.

You can turn it off under settings. Have the backlight stay permanently on, but this will run down your battery faster.

We have a new iPod Classic and would like some help in choosing "Import Settings" (under Peferences) when loading the iPod from the Mac. We want to be sure that we can maintain a constant sound level. Used with Bose sound dock. OS 10.6.8 iTunes 10.6.1.

Using an iPod Classic on a Bose sound dock....when loading the iPod from the Mac, what "Import Settings" (under iTune "Preferences"), should be used to maintain a constant sound level when playing music? Mac OS 10.6.8, iTunes 10.6.1.
There are many Import Settings available and it is somewhat confusing. Any suggestions?

Go to iTunes>Preferences>Playback. Tick "Sound Check."
iTunes: About Sound Check

I have a new ipod classic, iwant to give my ipod nano to partner.

I would like to take my nano and give to my partner. Do I need to rename it sothey can create there own list of music. Can two be put on the same computer?

iTunes can tell iPods apart so you can rename it if you want but it isn't required. Just plug in either iPod (I don't think you can plug in two at once) and iTunes knows which one is plugged in and will sync it however you set up that iPod to sync. The other will also sync how you set it up. They can be set up differently for the same library.

My new ipod touch 4g 8gb wont let me add songs/apps/etc from itunes

i just exchanged my old ipod for a brand new one at the apple store (both touch;4g) because the home button wont work
when i try to add songs or apps to it (since it has nothing on it) it wont let me. i made sure to authorize my computer, too. it has a 'not allowed' symbol (crossed out circle) next to my ipod when i try to drag songs/apps/videos to it.
when i first plugged it in the other day, i used a back-up of my old ipod but it didnt do anything since i didnt back up my old ipod in the first place. when i wasnt able to add my songs/apps, i reset my ipod and 'started over' w/o a backup and it still didnt work
i also have the latest version of itunes on a windows xp computer
any help would be greatly appreciated ^_^
thanks, Alyssa

im a step closer now--i had it so i cant auto-sync any device on this computer, which it still is, but now i went to devices>my ipod>summary and checked 'manually manage music and videos'. now it has tje plus sign when i drag songs to it, but it doesnt sync when i drop them....
