You should sync your ipod to your computer regularly.

  • IPod Touch 4G won't sync new apps on 2nd authorized computer, but WILL sync music, podcasts, etc.

    Hello.
    Everywhere I've read about apps not syncing to the iPod touch while using iTunes on a second authorized computer have mentioned that they could sync nothing to the device. Yet I have a different problem, one where I have no problem syncing new music, podcasts, pictures, etc., and only new apps refuse to sync to the device.
    I recently purchased a new iPod Touch 4G. My computer being away for repairs at the time that I bought it, I synced only podcasts, apps, pictures, and video to the device using a friend's computer under a different Apple ID. When I first synced it, I authorized that computer with the device, and it mentioned you could sync the device with up to 5 computers, so I figured I would have no problem when I got my own computer back.
    Having now received my computer back, I connected my new iPod touch to my own iTunes under my Apple ID and authorized my computer as the second authorized computer. These are the only two computers I have ever synced the device with.
    I copied my music library, more pictures, and more podcasts to the device with no problems, and they play/show on the device no problem. Also, I can still access and use all the content previously on my iPod.
    I have downloaded a few new free apps that I wanted to sync to my iPod using my computer, but when I go to sync them to my iPod, they won't sync to the device. I have downloaded all the apps I had originally put on my iPod using my friends computer so that I would receive updates for the apps automatically. I have not tried to sync these, though I have (or iTunes at least is telling me I have) synced any updates that have since come up for the apps already on my iPod.
    I have tried clicking and dragging the new apps from the apps tab over to the device tab, and iTunes shows them syncing, and to the best of my knowledge, shows that it has finished syncing them. It also shows that it has completely synced all the new apps when I try syncing on the apps tab under the device tab (the one that shows up when you click on the tab for your iPod, and is next to Summary, Pictures, Video, etc.). I have all the boxes checked off, and the boxes next to all the apps are checked off as if they're on my iPod, but they don't show up on the screen display next to it. When I click and drag the new apps over so they appear and click "apply," iTunes shows that it has completed the syncing process, but the apps won't show up on my iPod, and disappear from the sceen display on the device apps tab the next time I sync my iPod.
    I have the latest version of iTunes, and have downloaded all updates for it. My iPod's less than a month old, so I don't think there's any updates for the iPod itself.
    I also currently don't have the ability to sync over wi-fi, or have wi-fi access on my iPod at home, though I could set it up if it would fix the problem. Right now, I'm only syncing my iPod using usb and iTunes.
    I would prefer, if possible, not to have to restore the iPod to factory settings, and begin anew. However, if this is necessary, any help on how to restore the iPod and back it up would be much appreciated.
    Any help you can give is awesome.
    Thank you for your time.

    Hey, I'm probably too late and you may have already solved it but here's a solution. In iTunes go to Edit then preferences and then click on reset dialog warnings. What happens is when you first sync your ipod, you receive a message saying something like transfer?and you've probably selected "Do not show this message again". I don't really know why but iTunes assumes that the apps on your iPod are already on your computer and therefore need no transferring.
    After you've reset it, the same message should pop up about transferring. As long as you don't click don't show, you should be good to go.

  • My iPad wont sync to my computer but will sync to other computers.

    Like the title says, my iPad wont sync to my computer but will sync to my bother's mac and my windows laptop.

    First off, an iPad is designed to sync with only one computer. Syncing with a second computer erases everything synced from the first computer.
    What exactly are you trying to accomplish? What happens when you try and what, if any, error messages do you receive? Do you have iTunes 11.1 or later on the computer you want to sync with?

  • TS2756 How can i create a new usb connection (service)  on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )

    How can i create a new usb connection (service)  on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )
    i know its not a problem whit my carrier o data plan or sharing preferences on the ipone because when i use it un my laptop it works perfectly through
    the usb and even works on the Imac through wifi and bluethood tethering but NOT through usb!!.
    the problem is that trying to make it work i deleted the "profile" usb iphone on the network prefereces panel. Now i only have 3 options: ethernet / wifi / bluetooth
    but not the usb iPhone i used to have.
    And when i try to add a new one i dont get a USB option.
    can some one help me please??
    this is how it looks (after the bluetooth PAN i used to have USB iPhone option)

    The question would be more appropriate in the Mac forums as it is not really related to the iPhone.

  • I have a 3G iphone. I just tried to download the new itunes and lost all my itunes I had.  I tried to transfer them from my computer but can't. How can I and what do I do to get the ones I bought before and now have lost.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod/iphone/ipad:  File>Transfer Purchases

    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.

  • Dvd/cd drive works but won't allow me to install new programs from disk, doesn't recognize the disk,

    dvd/cd drive works but won't allow me to install new programs from disk, doesn't recognize the disk, what can I do?

    Well I was able to obtain a work around download of Flash and it installed fine but Firefox tells me it needs updating so I go out, thinking I'm "IN" finally to update it and I get that issue of not being able to get the update for it.  It's a regular laptop, not a touch screen or one of those new fangled ones for todays world.  In fact it's a refurb so it's probably origin date was a year or so ago before all this MS stuff took off fully.  So not understanding why I'm feeling like I'm being BLOCKED from getting the updated Flash I need and desire.  If I click on the little "X" and tell it to ignore the warning the vid will play just fine but don't want to have to do that every time.  Must be a better way. 
    Again, I'm sorry for posting in the wrong forum, getting this posted in the Flash forum was my desire but the way Adobe has this set up I just couldn't figure it out.  I belong to ALLOT of forums and most are pretty straight forward but this one is confusing!

    when i plug my phone into my dell computer to download the new software and all my music but nothing synces or pops up. what do i do?

    If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. This makes 1 look and act more like previous versions. Also go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod>Sync your device>Set up syncing>Sync device manually.
    to make sure you are follwoing the right instructions for drag and dropping.
    If the songs do not play in iTunes on the computer then y willhave to reimport them into iTunes. For iTunes purchases you can
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • IPhone 6 will not sync to iTunes. ITunes will only give restore option.

    I restored my hubby's new iPhone 6 from his itunes, iphone 5 backup and it won't sync his apps, music or other media. When I plug
    it into his Windows 8 laptop (vomit, lol), it only give me the option to restore from backup or start as a new phone. I've restored the phone 3 times. I've rebooted the phone and laptop.
    HALP! He has a lot of music that he's stored on there that isn't just an iTunes download away.

    Had the same issue. Restored from previous backup, but the apps & music were missing (did not sync).
    I then gave up and did "Set as new iPhone" and then suddenly all apps started to sync.
    Good luck.

  • I synced my new iPad with my new macbook and when I tried to then sync my iPhone as well it says that all apps will be replaced with apps in my library. How do I sync without losing all of my existing iPhone apps?

    I synced my new iPad with my new macbook and when I tried to then sync my iPhone as well it says that all apps will be replaced with apps in my library. How do I sync without losing all of my existing iPhone apps?

    My guess is that you previously synced the iPhone with a different computer in the past. You will probably want to set up Home Sharing.

Please check your internet connection or try back later.
    My internet works fine and I have tried back dozens of times with same result.

    Did you ever figure out the problem? "Contact Software Manufacturer"?? That sounds ominous... I've got the same issue and I'm pretty durn aggravated right about now....
    Thanks!

  • How can i set the number of results that can be displayed on the page

    hello im just wondering how i can set the numebr of results that can be dispaleyd on the jsp, when the there are more than 5 results i want the suer to press more
    how is this odne could anyone send me a example code?
    and also how can i get results from the query displayed as select list options, so that when they press one of teh results it goes to correspnding page
    Thank you

    Hi,
    I assume that you have the connection to the DB.
    You can try this code.
    Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
    String sql = "<some sql code for selecting>";
    ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
    rs.last();
    int count = rs.getRow(); // this is the number that shows how many numbers you have after select query
    rs.first(); //we moved cursor again to the begining of the results.
    if (count > 5) {
    for (int i=0;i<5;i++) {
      //as an example
      rs.getString(0);
      rs.getString(1);
      rs.getString(2);
    out.print("<a href='morePage.jsp'>More</a>");
    else {
    for (int i=0;i<count;i++){
      //as an example
      rs.getString(0);
      rs.getString(1);
      rs.getString(2);
    rs.close();
    stmt.close();I hope this would help you.
    If you have problems let me know..
