I have recently started using an old Nano and purchased some new songs. When I go to sync it wants to erase other songs to download new. Is there a way to just sync new songs to ipod without erasing existing music on devise?

Syncing shouldn't trouch you photos unless you have photos in a Photo Library album. These would be photos that were synced to your phone from your computer. If you do have any, you'll need to use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your computer prior to syncing.
If you prefer to backup your camera roll photos prior to syncing, open iTunes and go to Preferences>Devices and check "Prevent...from syncing automatically". Then connect your phone to your computer and import them as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
Then, to minimize data loss, follow the steps in this user tip: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141. To follow the steps, first open iTunes and go to View>Show Sidebar. Also, Transfer Purchases is now located in File>Devices.

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this test is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.

My parent's IPad is SUPER outdated and I'm trying to buy an app for my brother for Christmas. However, the computer that was connected to the IPAD, we no longer have. So is there any way I can update it on my mac without erasing all the photos and videos?

I recently updated to 10.8.2 and now my notes from my iPhone no longer appear in my mail nor do my calendar appointments. Is there any way to change it so they will appear?

If it has the same (bad) behavior on two different systems then there is a very good chance that the drive is toast.
BTW you'll get better response to your questions if the question actually reflects the problem you are having. In this case it would have been better to say you couldn't access the drive rather then that it doesn't show on the desktop.

I have to enter my Firefox Sync account information every time I open the browser. Is there a way to get Sync to retain this information?

Using Firefox 3.6.12 with Firfox Sync 1.5.1. When I open Firefox I have to go to Sync settings and put in all my Sync account information. One the information is in place everything sync's up fine and I am alright until I close Firefox. Once I open Firefox again I have to input all of my Sync account settings again. Is there a way to get Sync to remember all of my settings so that it connects and syncs every time I start Firefox?

@the-edmeister
Thanks for the advice. In my case, it is sufficient to '''uncheck''' " Saved passwords".
('''''Preferences -> Privacy -> Clear History when Firefox closes -> Settings -> Saved Passwords''''').
Great to have Sync. :)

Is there a way to get into my locked/disabled ipod without deleting the date on it?

My iPod has been locked for a couple of years, I didn't even know that could happen. I need to get the pictures off of the device, but I don't want to erase the data off of it since it hasn't been backed up. Is there a way I can do that?

No by you may be able to get some info off the restored iPod (since you do not have iOS 8) by:
- Maybe from the restored iPod via How to perform iPad recovery for photos, videos

Hi t.romano91,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
I'm not sure why you had to manually enter your contact information, but if you created and turned on your iCloud account, the information should be there.
The link below will give you a general overview of iCloud, and how to look at your contacts:
iCloud Help: Contacts overview
I've also included the User Guide for the iPhone below to help you get started ...
Please note that the Contacts App (looks like a brown address book) is located inside the Utilties folder on your home screen. Press and hold the Utilities folder and it will jiggle. Then drag the Contacts App out onto the home screen for easier access. (see page 20 of the guide below).
manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
Page 100 - 102 explains how the Contacts feature works.
Enjoy your new iPhone!
Have a great day!

I have a few failed downloads on my iPod that I have bought and paid for. I don't care about the money but I would like to know how to delete them? Is there a way I can do it on my iPod without using a computer?

I have a few failed downloads in the 'downloads' section on iTunes. It won't let me download any other video and it keeps asking me to 'tap to retry' I don't really care about the money lost but can anyone tell me if I can delete them from my iPod? Thanks x

Have you tried resetting your iPod:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

I have recently started using the IMAQ add-ons in Labview 6i.

Does anyone know if I can easily (and if so, how?) convert a 16bit image to RGB format (or vise versa) without re-opening it?
Thanks
Dan

Dan,
I believe you are looking for "IMAQ Cast Image" under Image Management, which will convert from one image format to another. The help information should be enough to get you on your way.

I have recently started syncing to iCloud on my laptop and iPad. It starts to sync and then stops and I get the message: you do not have permission to sync this folder. I do what it asks but cannot get past that folder? Help!

I have recently started using iCloud on my laptop syncing it with my iPad. When the syncing process starts it stops and gives me a message something like: You do not have permission to sync this folder. Then it wants me to unlock and gives other suggestions. I have done them all and still cannot get the syncing process past this folder. I is a folder in my documents. Anyone have any solutions?

If you think this is a bug, you can report it here:

Copy the music from Nano to computer by:
Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device: Apple Support Communities
Then just sync to the new device
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod

Yes by:
Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
However, you can make this computer the syncing computer by:
- Transering iTunes purchases to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
Copy music
- For synced photos you need a program like TouchCopy or PhoneView. The do music too.
- After everything is on the computer connect the iPod to the computer and make a backupo by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup
Note that the backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps, music, synced photos.
