I need help getting some photos off a really old ipod

Ok so here it is.... My grandparents way back when gave me an ipod video, I just recently found it and realized it has photo's on it that I would like to keep. My problems are 1. I don't have the original computer I used for it 2. when I plug it in my computer thinks it's a hard drive 3. autoplay won't give me the option to import the photo's to my computer and 4. itunes doesn't seem to have an option to transfer photo's from ipods to your pictures folder.... if any one could help I'd appriciate it.

The photos you synced to your iPod through iTunes are no longer in their full resolution, but instead are scaled down thumbnails of those photos. So if you do manage to get them off your iPod, they will be quite small in size compared to the original ones you lost.
In order to get them off of your iPod, you'll need the help of some sort of 3rd party software. Here is one option. You can Google for more.

IPhone stuck on restore -- need to get some photos off!

Hi,
My iPhone is stuck in restore mode. I don't know how it got like that, it was freezing up and I tried to reset it, maybe I did it on accident.
Anyways, I have some photos on it that I need to get off -- so I don't want to do the restore yet! Every time I connect it to my iTunes it says that it is in restore mode. How can I take it out of restore mode to get these pictures off of it first??
Thanks in advance

Hi, I'm a bit low on memory and I can't update the iOS. I need to move some photos off the iPad but I don't want to transfer them to a pc, I'd prefer to transfer them to iCloud and leave them there. Is that possible?

Yes, you could, because in this case you would have something like a backup in the cloud. BTW, personally I also like Flickr. Flickr offers you 1 TB (1000 GB) of free storage and automatic upload for photos since iOS 7 (it is a very attractive offer, at least for me)

HT1386 I need help getting my contacts transferred from my old phone to my new one

I need help getting my contacts transferred from my old iphone to my new one

Either backup the contacts in iCloud or with a compatible programme on your computer (Outlook, Windows Contacts, Address Book etc).
Once done, sync the contacts to your new iPhone from that programme/iCloud.
Read "Contacts"

I need to get all my off my old iphone. i got a new one today

Save any photo stream photos to the camera roll, then import the camera roll photos to your computer, as explained here so they are backed up: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.
Then back up your old phone, either to iCloud (if it still has service) or to your computer using iTunes. Then restore this backup to your new phone to transfer your camera roll photos, text messages, app data, settings, apps and other purchased media, etc. More details here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109.

I need help getting itunes on my new computer. old one crashed

My old computer crashed, I downloaded iTunes on my new computer and need help getting all of my stuff on it that I had. I did 'home share' to see if that worked, and it didnt.
Also, on my old computer, when I synced my iPad & my husbands iPod, it didnt sync any music or podcasts, no videos-and i went through each category seperately to sync it and it didnt work. So I can't sync my devices to the new iTunes bc not everything is on there that i have purchased.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your comuter for just this occasion. Use your backup copy to put everything on the new computer.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I need help getting best photo quality

Hello,
I need some help for a dedication photo page that I am doing for my son's baseball tribute. It is a photo page with limited text and will be printed in a directory. The last time I did this, my photos were very blurry. I am trying to get the best resolution possible and I'm not sure whether I should use Photoshop or In design. I currently have the entire cs4 suite. I sampled the new CC suite several months ago, but like my software I already own, never learned how to use anything. If you can offer any advice on programs and settings to get me going, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Teressa

When taking a picture with a camera, use the highest resolution possible and if it offers raw format use that instead of jpg. The raw format is just that raw, kind of like a negitive. Nothing is done to it, but provides the highest quality resolution and number of colors. The jpg format, is an edited version in that the settings of the camera dictate what the final image will look like.
Even though for beginners jpg sounds appealing as the camera is doing the work, it also degrades the image. Jpg by nature throws out data to compress the file so that it can be smaller in size. Each time you open and save that jpg file, more data gets throwed out, until the image looks blotchy.
Raw files are non writable. There is no way to over write the data in that file. They use a sperate file called a sidecar file which holds any changes you make to that raw file in camera raw or lightroom.
Once the file opens in photoshop, there is no save as raw file (well there is, but it is not the same as your camera uses) So any edits here in photoshop need to be saved in another format preferable one that is non-destructive when compressing the file, like psd, tiff, png, etc.
Now that the file formats are out of the way, next advice is to keep an eye on the pixel dimentions. The higher the pixel numbers for the width and height, the better the quality will be.
To see the pixel dimentions use the menu Image>Image Size...
Towards the bottom is a check box for resampling the image. With this box checked, you can alter the pixel dimentions. With it unchecked, you can not.
If you reduce the pixel dimentions you are literally throwing in out data. It will no longer exist.
If you increase the pixel dimentions, photoshop trys its best to guess what the data should be to add it.
This is the reason why it is so important to use the highest quality image directly from the camera. As good as photoshop is, it can only be just so good, when you increase the pixel dimentions enough the image will become blurry.
If you reduce the pixel dimentions enough the image will become "pixelated" (It will look like it has a severe case of the jaggies {blocky looking})
So most of the time someone will have an image that does not have enough pixels in the image and the program they print from scales it up to fit a certain area and it will be blurry.
Long story short, it does not matter which program you use, photoshop or InDesign, if the image has enough pixels you will be fine, if not, you will get blurry images.

I need to get my Photos off of my iPod touch...

I have a iPod touch 16GB and a MacBook Pro.
Recently, I upgraded my Mac to Leopard, and had to wipe my HD. I thought that i had backed up all of my files to disks. Turns out that one folder didn't back up, and it was from my pictures, and they are pictures that are really important to me! They are still on my iPod Touch and I would like to get them off.
Does anybody know how I could do this? Are there any programs?

You may be able to find a program to transfer the photos off of the ipod touch back to your computer, but they will not be the same resolution as they were before. Itunes resized the photos before it transfered them to the ipod, so they will be of now a fairly low resolution even if you can transfer them back.

HT4906 Need help getting iPad photos onto iMac

I'm trying to get my photo stream from my iPad to upload automatically via iCloud onto my Mac desktop. I'm getting the message that all updates are complete, but the desktop still won't let me check the box to update photos via iCloud. What to do?

Are you referring to this checkbox:
If that box is checked and it's not imorting into iPhoto disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

Just like every idiot knows that those of us who frequent these support forums are psychic and know exactly what you did and when without you having to tell us.
You killed it. It's dead. Your photos are gone. Deal with it.

I need help getting my photos back on my iPad!

So my iPad had a lot of photos. My photos were syncing to my computer I think and then all of the sudden, I looked on my iPad and they all disappeared. I didn't delete them. Then I looked back on my iPad and they were syncing back. Then I let them sync for a day or two and then they disappeared again. I really want my photos back. :( please help someone.

Hi karate2014,
Music and apps purchased under one Apple ID are not transferrable to another Apple ID, nor can ID’s be merged. See this article -
Using your Apple ID for Apple services
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895
It is possible, however, to use different Apple IDs for different purposes on a single device such as your iPad. See the same article under -
Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Need help getting some music 'across the bridge'

So I've been clicking and dragging music
from my external hard drive into my iTunes
and so far alot of the records have made
the leap...
however, there are a handful that WILL NOT
make the move. I'll select them and then drag
'em over but they don't add to my iTunes.
What's the deal?
yes, I've checked to see if they were 'protected'
they are not.
yes, I've checked to make sure they work fine.
They do.
I'm lost here.

Try mp3val.
Alternatively the tracks may have been successfully added to the library but are listed somewhere unexpected.

I need help getting Time Machine to recognize my old files

I recently was forced to restore my system. I was using Leopard (10.5.1). I have several backups on my external drive from that "old" system. After I restored by system, Leopard will not recognize the old files. Any ideas about how I can get Leopard to see these files so I can restore?
Thank You

Thank you for asking. I solved my problem last night. I reloaded the system using the "erase and restore" option this time. Then, once I reached the Time Machine level, TM could see the old files. I did have to restore the files one area at a time. I could not launch a general system restore.

How do I get my pictures off of an old ipod to a new one

How do I get pictures off of a ipod touch and put them on anther ipod

What pics?
Pics taken with ipod should be imported to your computer regularly as with any other digital camera.
Copying personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
Pics synced to the ipod are synced one way only - computer to ipod. They should still be on your computer and in your backup copy of your computer.
