I have more songs than can fit on my ipod. How do I add the most recent when I sync?

I suppose sometime I will have to get a bigger IPOD, but I still love hwat I have but like to mix up the music. I now have too many songs on my computer to load on my IPOD. Is there any way to automatically load the most recently added tunes when I sync or do I have to manually deselect tunes I don't want to load?

Hello sifishman,
Instead of trying to reinvent the wheel on this one or explain it myself, have a look at this Apple support document. Should be able to answer your question.

In iBooks if I have more bookmarks than can fit on a single page, how do I access the second page of bookmarks?

In iBooks when I access the Table of Contents and select Bookmarks sometimes my list of bookmarks and Highlites & Notes is larger than can be displayed on a single page of the screen. How can I access the list of additional Bookmarks and Notes that are were not displayed? Trying to tap for the next page gives no response. Am I limited to a list that only fits on one page of the screen?

oops! yes scrolling works if I first scroll down and then up. thanks

I have more songs than I can put on Ipod. How can I un-click all songs in an album without doing each singly, to reduce space? Thanks

I have more songs than I can put on Ipod. Will unclick some songs but one at a time is taking forever. How can I un-click all songs in an album without doing each singly, to reduce space needed on iPod? Thanks

Why not try syncing a smart playlist that updates automatically every time you sync your iPod?
Try something like this:
1. Pull down File > New Smart Playlist;
2. Playlist IS Music; click the plus button;
3. Last Played IS NOT in the last 90 days;
4. Select the option to Limit to xxx items selected by Random and click OK.
Name the playlist that is created something distinctive then sync you iPod with that. It will automatically update based on the last played dates of a tune and you'll always have fresh content on your iPod. Modify the playlist as needed to make it give you the results you want.
Regards,
Michael

I have a 3rd gen iPod touch and I downloaded the most recent itunes, ever since I did, only the first song syncs to the ipod. As soon as it gets to the second, it still says its syncing. However, nothing happens. How do I fix this? I have restored and updated the ipod. I have the new iTunes. I have restarted my computer checked the connection and everything.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

I have three users each with PC/Mac and iPods, how do I overcome the '5 user limit'? If I create a new acct, will it blow out the library on the iPod?

You don't. 5 is the limit of COMPUTERS that can be authorized to a single itunes account. Ipods/iphones/ipad/Apple Tvs do NOT count toward the 5.

Why can't ipod touch 1st gen get the most recent ios update?

i have tried to update my ipod touch but it doesnt work. i dont understand why the 1st generation cannot get the most recent update.

Because the 1G iPod does not have the hardware necessary to support higher than iOS 3.1.3

I have a file where I store my download music. When I click on "add music" to my ipod my music file opens, but rather than have to drag one song at a time to my ipod, how do I copy the entire file at once to my ipod. - steve

Hi - I have a file where I store my downloaded music. When I plug in my ipod and click on "add music" my file appears. Rather than drag one song at a time, how can I download the entire list at once? - steve

I am not doing it in ITunes, but i did down load the song from ITunes. I loaded the song on to my Nano, but in my menu selections it doesn't show the song or the artist in any search format. However, when i plug in my nano to my PC I see the Nano library on my PC drive listings and that song and artist are there. I can click on the song and it will play in Windows media on my work PC. I did notice that the format for most all the songs in my library on my Nano are MPEG - 4 audio Files.
Thanks for your help, Mel

I currently have a Macbook Pro from late 2008 and I'd like to update it to the most current software in order to run newer programs such as Adobe Creative Suite 6. I am not sure if this is even possible but if anyone has any advice or help I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

I have a newer version of flash player installed then what is listed as the most recent version??

Hello,
I am checking the version i have installed of flash player via the adobe version check option at the site and i have version 11.8.800.94 and when i check the list of the latest versions of Adobe, i see 11.7.700.169 listed as being the latest vversion. How can i have a version installed that's above that? I haven't installed a beta version, never signed up for beta testing and all i did was install the latest version of flash player via the website.
I am wondering what this is cause recently when viewing videos on youtube, my videos tend to hang up or end halfway through and think the video ended when it's not. My guess now is that i have sumhow obtained a version of flash player that's not correct and thus why the videos go haywire now. Re-installing flash player sets it back to the 11.8 version again, so that didn't work.
Any information any1 might have that can solve this is much appreciated.

11.8.800.94 is the latest version for Windows and Mac. 11.8.800.115 is the latest beta version. http://helpx.adobe.com/en/flash-player/release-note/fp_118_air_38_release_notes.html

HT1766 I was gave an Ipod that I can't do anything with, how do I find the original owner when the person giving this to me was less than honest?

Contact the police.

How to synch in the most recent version of iTunes - 11.0.0.163 - The latest version updated today and changed the look of the program. I can't see where to click to synch. If I disconnect and restart it works fine automatically, but why do that?

I updated the latest version of iTunes today and it has a new look. That's fine but I can't see where to click to synch my ipod after downloading music or podcasts. It was always easy.

It might make it much easier on you if you enable the sidebar in iTunes. Launch iTunes and go to View>Show Sidebar. With iTunes set up like that, it should look a lot more familiar to you. You can select your device name under the devices heading and then go through all of the iTunes panes by clicking on them at the top of the iTunes Window.
My screenshot shows my iPad, but it works the same way with an iPod.
