I would like to give my daughter my old Ipod but....

I run 10.4.7 and she has an old imac running 10.2.8, that is the beginning of the problem I think. I have an old third generation ipod that I have been running on my new mac and my daughter would love to use it. It is found by the imac but does not update without getting stuck after a few songs. I would like to restore it but since she cannot run Itunes 7 the directions from Apple don't apply and I really don't know what else to do. I have just about run out of ideas but don't want to give up. I know the ipod is fine, new battery, I was using it up till last week. Any help for her - and me. Thanks

Do you still have the original CD that came with the iPod? If so, ins't there a program on there to do a restore or reset to the default which will put it back to the way it was when you bought it without the updates.

  • How do I track an old (stolen) ipod touch if I already synced a new ipod touch with the old information without knowing it would not allow me to track my old ipod but my new one instead?

    I lost my iPod touch (4th generation) over a week ago and did not think I installed the icloud on it. When I was setting up my new iPod touch (4th generation),
    I saw that it automatically shows an option for icloud. That made me realize that I probably did install icloud in my old ipod. The problem is that I synced my old ipod with my new ipod on the computer. I thought if I didn't I would loose all of my old infomation. So now evertyime I use the app to find my iPod, it finds my new one. It shows only one device located under it. Is there a way I could find the old iPod? Or could I restore my new iPod and find the old one that way? I'm afraid if I restore it I would loose all my information from my old ipod.

    That makes no difference in finding/tracking your lost/stolen device.
    The old device will only show up in icloud.com if you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

  • I have an IPod 5th generation and I would like to give it away with the apps, but have all personal data deleted, app can no longer be found in the apple store and I'd like to to be able to keep it

    I have an IPod 5th generation and I would like to delete all personal content, and be signed out of my Apple ID as well, but there are apps that no longer exist on the apple store that I would like to keep.

    Do this:

  • Hello, I just bought macbook air - and now would like to give my granddaughter my old mac book. I've deleted all my documents, photos, but am unsure how to empty my iTunes music.  All my stuff is now on my new computer and I do not want to lose my music!

    Now that I bought my new MAc Book Air - if I empty my music from my old computer will I lose all my music on my new computer - ipod etc...
    My granddaughter is waiting in the wings to get my old in great shape mac book!  thanks

    if I empty my music from my old computer will I lose all my music on my new computer - ipod etc...
    No. Be sure you have transferred the entire contents of your old /Home/Music/ folder.
    Create a new user account on your old computer. Have your granddaughter tell you what she would like the username to be and what password she wants. Be sure to set the new account with Administrative authority. Then log into this new account and delete your old account.

  • I would like to get rid of an old iBook, but when I plug it in, I can't get it to boot up at all.

    I have an old iBook Power PC G3 that I would like to recycle.  However, many years ago I dropped it and the logic board was damaged. It will boot up for a couple of seconds, then go to sleep or shut down.  I can't tell.  I think I may have some information on there that I need to get rid of before I send it off to recycling.
    I'd like to wipe the hard drive and get it recycled. Help!
    Beth

    If you hadn't found some ideas online of how to open the old G3 iBook model
    there are a few that may help, depending on which model you actually have,
    in sites such as iFixit.com https://www.ifixit.com/Device/iBook_G3
    Since there were early models in color, and later ones in white, more than
    one kind of hardware build example exists under the name iBook G3...
    To open it and remove the hard disk drive, as suggested, to access it by a
    universal hard drive wire kit (those have their own power supply too) is a
    great idea. If nothing else, you could otherwise dispose of the hard drive
    and not be too concerned of someone else accessing your personal info.
    A destructive method could be used to make the moving parts inside not
    accessible to most usual means. I've seen what a big hammer could do.
    Hopefully someone may want the remainder of your old iBook G3 for fun
    or to look at in wonder, it may not be ready for the trash just yet.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • I would like to listen to rhapsody on my iPod, but i can't seem to download a flash player that will work

    How do you download a flash player onto an ipod touch?

    You don't.
    There is no flash player for ipod.  Adobe does not make one.
    You cannot download anyhitng from the internet onto the iphone.  The ONLY apps come from the app store in itunes.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    First of all, did your MacBook come with DVDs? If it came with DVDs, just erase the disk and reinstall OS X:
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install Disc 1 and hold the C key while your Mac is starting to start from the DVD.
    2. Go to Utilities menu > Disk Utility, select the hard disk at the top of the sidebar, go to Erase tab and erase the disk.
    3. Close Disk Utility and reinstall OS X. When the installation finishes, hold the trackpad while your computer is starting to eject the DVD, and turn off the Mac.
    Finally, open http://supportprofile.apple.com, log in with your Apple ID and unregister the MacBook, so she will be able to register the MacBook to her Apple ID.
    If it didn't come with DVDs, do the same but holding Command, Option (Alt) and R keys while your Mac is starting. Note that OS X and iLife apps are registered to your Apple ID, so she won't be able to reinstall them or update any of the iLife applications

  • HT4436 is there a way to change the apple ID on an Icloud account? I used to share everything with my daughter but she's old enough we need to separate the accounts.. I would like to "give" the ICloud account to her, because all of her games are on it.

    Is there a way to change the apple ID on an Icloud account? I would like to "give" an ICloud account to my daughter. We used to share one, but she's getting older I would like to split our accounts. She has her own Apple ID but since all her games are on this ICloud account, I would like to give it to her and start my own.

    You can migrate your device and a copy of the iCloud data to a new account.  To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow, then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If you are syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; your daughter's device won't be effected by this), choose Keep on My iPad and provide the password when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload the data.
    Once you are on separate accounts you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.
    The existing iCloud email account cannot be moved to your new account so you will need to give your contacts your new email address if you are giving the account to your daughter.

  • Can I gift my own album on itunes? Im an artist and would like to give my music to a few people for free

    Can I gift my own album on itunes? Im an artist and would like to give my music to a few people for free

    I would presume you can pay and gift the album as you would any other album, even though the album is your own. Not having any content in the iTunes Store, though, I haven't tried it. You probably can't gift it at no charge to yourself, though, if that's what you mean. I'm not aware of any program in the iTunes Store where you get "gratis" codes you can give out. If you want to give your music to a few people free to both them and you, you'll proably need to get the music to them in some other way.
    Regards.

    I am currently using the adobe cloud service and would like to give my granddaughter my original lightroom and photoshop programs.  Would do I need to do to remove them from my computer to hers?  The lightroom 5 program has been replaced with the cloud version on my computer.

    Follow the steps listed at  Transfer an Adobe product license
    Lightroom has no activation check so you don't need to do anything to your computer. Your old copy of Photoshop must be deactivated / uninstalled if you haven't already done so.

    I am shooting aerial video with a GoPro H3+ at 1080p 30fps and would like to edit videos and give them to my clients to use in as much media as possible for their advertising and marketing needs.  I would like to give it to them at the highest quality allowed.  What form should I save it in 'Publish and Share'?  I have Premier Elements 12.

    Can we assume that your 1080p30 is an AVCHD.mp4 file or other?
    You manually or the project automatically should set the project preset to
    NTSC
    DSLR
    1080p
    DSLR 1080p30 @29.97
    (If your frame rate is really 30 instead of 29.97, then go with DSLR 1080p30 instead of DLSR 1080p30 @29.97)
    See the following link for setting the project preset manually
    http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/04/pe11-accuracy-of-automatic-project.html
    For your export
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    AVCHD
    with Presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30
    Please let us know if you have further questions on this or need clarification on anything written.

  • HT1918 I would like to give back the last purchase wich was a mistake

    I would like to give back my las purchase wich was actually a mistake

    If you purchased using your AppleID, look in your purchase history.
    If you purchased using a credit or debit card, ask the financial institution
    that issued the credit/debit card for a copy of the receipt.
    If you paid cash, you could try contacting the store; but unless you
    provided some identification at the time of sale, there would be no
    way for the store to tie any transaction to your purchase.

  • I would like to give my old iPhone to a friend who would be on a different carrier, is this possible?

    I have recently upgraded to the iPhone 6 and would like to give my old iPhone 4S to a friend in Argentina. Can i do this, if so how? Would his carrier just put their SD card in the side?

    It's very unlikely.  Here are at least some of the conditions you would have to satisfy.
    Ask the original iPhone 4S' cellular carrier if they will unlock the iPhone.  If their answer is "no", you are finished and cannot proceed.
    If the original carrier would unlock the iPhone, you would have to do this before passing it to your friend.
    Check Settings > Genreal > About > Model and record the model number you see.
    Ask your friend to contact their cellular carrier to find out if they support that particular model.

  • I have a mac  book pro that i bought in late 2009. My current software is snow leopard version 10.5.8. I would like to get the new lion operating system but I cant without first getting the latest version of snow leopard. it doesnt show on software updat

    I have a mac book pro that i bought in late 2009. My current software is snow leopard version 10.5.8. I would like to get the new lion operating system but I cant without first getting the latest version of snow leopard. however when I go to update my software it doesnt show that any update is available.

    10.5.8 is Leopard, not Snow Leopard. You need the Snow Leopard DVD;
    You can get it only by phone now from Apple.
    In the US, call 1-800-MY-APPLE and ask for a sales assistant. Last quoted price was $19.99 for the single-user and $29.99 for the family licence.
    For other countries, check here; http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    Don't forget to ask for Sales; the tech support guys can't help.
    If you want Lion, rather than Mountain Lion, the same Sales team can give you a download code to use at the Mac AppStore.
    To get the App Store, you need to update your new Snow Leopard from 10.6.3 (which is the version on the installer) to 10.6.8 with the combo update; http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    Be warned that the upgrades will render a lot of older software unusable, and will need new drivers for printers and scanners in all likelihood.
