  • Error in iTunes when I'm wanting to put a CD on my iPod to listen to for a short time

    Hi,
    My iTunes has been playing games with my mind. It makes me think that my iPod is full and it's not 'cause I have been taking off CDs and putting on just the CD that I want to listen to since my iPod can't handle much more since it's near full. Whenever I want to put a CD on my iPod that isn't on there yet I get this weird lookin' error in iTunes when I'm wanting to put a CD on my iPod to listen to for a short time. This is what it reads: "iTunes could not copy "song" to the iPod "Liz's iPod" because an unknown error has occurred (-50). See, my iPod can't hold too many more of my new CDs so what I'm having to do is when I want to listen to one of the new ones I can put it on, listen to it, take it off and put another new one on which I don't mind doing, but this error that I am receiving has been annoying me for a long time. I'm hoping somebody knows something about this 'cause my iPod is not full at all since I'm trying my best to keep it from getting there. One other thing, I rip my CDs in 192 and VBR. My iPod has AAC on there as well, but those are just my converted music downloads that I have downloaded over the years, but the AACs aren't the case. Just my ripped CDs. Does anybody know what this error is telling me?
    Thanks,
    Liz

    Nevermind, I figured it out this morning. The CDs that I have ripped in 192 all load up good without errors and I just have to drag CDs that are ripped in VBR by transferring 2 songs at a time to get it all loaded up. That is weird, but thank goodness it had nothing to do with iTunes. I was just confused... that's all.

  • I want to put my songs on a [stick] so i can play in new car

    how would i copy my songs to a ubs stick so i can play in car

    I have only been using the conversion that is with itunes. I can't find the file extention before I copy - where do I get that and why isn't it converting my playlist?  Most of the songs are from my own cd's, why do they get changed to mp4?  I have Apple care but I can't get them to ring me - this is the first time anything Apple has annoyed me.

  • I need to put a help system into my app (NEED SOFTWARE)

    Hi to all
    Can anyone help me with where I can get some software that would build a help menu for an Application that I have written?
    I am sure that someone has written software that would be able to do this.
    I would really like to be able to search for information within the help.
    I am running a Mac OS X 10.3 system and running Jbuilder 9
    Can anyone point me in the right direction?
    Thank you,
    Craig

    That's a great idea. I was looking for a low-cost easy solution, that should do the trick.

  • Had an old ipod with all my songs on some years ago now says i cannot synch with my new computer and new apple account do not want to lose all my songs how do i get them on my new comp pl

    Hi had old ipod with old large library on have lost my old itunes account so opened a new one but i cannot get my library onto my new comp help!! pl

    The music you purchased with the old iTunes account is tied to that account.  You need to obtain the ID and password for that account.  The following provides instructions.
    Frequently Asked Questions About Apple ID
    Once you get the accountinoformation you can transfer the the iTunes purchased stuff to the new computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    If you are the USA and have the latest iTunes you shuld be able to redownload them with these instructions.  Again, you need the ID information.

  • Okay, my gateway laptop crashed about 2 months ago and Im saving up for a new Mac. I want to use my iPhone 4 on the Mac, but how do I do that with out wiping my phoen clean or without my old laptop too. And I am not tech savvy so I need step by step.

    So basically I'm a girl who can't figure out technology. I want my music and apps to stay and I want to be able to update my phone because it still has it's original software.

    Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
    Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
    After this, do an update from the App Store.
    Thats all there is to it.
    For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
    Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
    There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

  • I have a hdd from late 2009 that I upgraded from leopard to snow leopard to lion to mountain lion.  I want to upgrade the hdd to ssd.  Do I need to buy a new copy of mountain lion to install on the ssd?  If not, then what is the procedure to transfer?

    I have a hdd from a late 2009 mbp.  I upgraded from leopard to snow leopard to lion to mountain lion.  Now I want to upgrade to a ssd.  Do I need to purchase a new copy of mountain lion to go on my new ssd? If I don't, then what is the procedure to transfer mountain lion with my 4 user accounts onto the new ssd from the hdd?
    I'm confused on if I can use the recovery hd on a thumb drive to install mountain lion on my ssd.  Will it be pheasible with so many OS X upgrades?  And then how do I get my user accounts onto the ssd from the hdd.  Do I use migration assistant?  Do I need to make a time machine backup first?  Should I use something called Carbon Clone or something like that?
    Thanks for reading

    If you have a cable that connects and external HDD to the MBP, it will do.  If it is something like this, an  enclosure will not be needed for the swap:
    An enclosure allows you to use your old HDD for storage or backup purposes.  The cable will not. 
    Here are instructions as to how the swap can be performed using DISK UTITY.  Substitute You cable for the enclosure in same:
    INSTALLING A NEW HDD IN A MBP
    1. Make certain that you have backed up all of your important data.
    2. You will need a HDD enclosure.  One with a USB connection will do.  A 9 pin Firewire is better.
    3. Install your new drive in the enclosure and connect it to your MBP.
    4. Open DISK UTILITY>ERASE.  From the left hand column drag the new drive into the 'Name' field.  Make sure that the format is 'Mac OS Extended (Journaled)'.  Click on the 'Erase' button.
    5. Click on the 'Restore' button (on top).  Drag the old drive into the 'Source' field and the new drive into the 'Destination'  field.  Click on the 'Restore' button on the bottom right hand corner.
      Depending upon the amount of data you are transferring, this may take a couple hours or more.  A Firewire will speed up the transfer.  This will result in both drives having identical information on them.
    6. After the data transfer has completed, you may swap the drives.  Start the MBP and you have finished the installation.  The initial boot may take a bit longer than you are accustomed to, but that is normal.
    7. When you are satisfied that the new hard drive if functioning properly, you can erase the old drive and use it for any needs that you may have.
    If there is any confusion on your part, post back.
    Ciao.

  • I do not want to update to 5.0 how do i stop it for updating

    how do i stop ff from updating do not want 5.0 it has messed my home computer up . It locked it down with a blue screen. Tech said the whole hard drive was going to have to be formatted , said he had more than 4 to fix because of the update. And i don't want the update any way.

    Most of the apps being updated for the new iPad also contain bug fixes and in some cases new features. I go ahead and update. Having the latest version of an app is usually a good thing.

    Have you seen this type of problem before? I think it could be a serious issue for anyone in a similar position.
    No; but then, I've not had occasion to use TDM. I've been using firerwire drives for over 10 years, both FW400 and FW800, with no issues except a bit of instability using a B&W G3 machine.
    TDM should be safe. Using cautious, manual copying of files from the Target machine to the Host machine should not result in unexpected loss of files or damage to the Target drive's directories. It should behave exactly the same as if it were an external (to the Host) firewire drive.
    •  I don't suppose there is anything I can do to 'put back' lost items from a separate Time Machine drive which has an up to date backup on it.
    There is probably a way to do that - seems to me that's one of the reasons for a Time Machine volume.
    On the other hand, if the Time Machine volume is rigidly linked to the now-absent OS on the original drive, there may be no way to effectively access the files in the TM archive.
    I know that using a cloned drive would work well in this instance.
    I have no experience with Time Machine, so perhaps someone who has will chime in with suggestions.
    With the machine in TDM with the other machine, have you tried running Disk Utility to see if you can effect repairs to the drive?

  • I want to put music onto my partners phone from my Mac computer. The message comes up that her phone is synced with another iTunes library (not in use anymore) and do I want to erase this iPhone and sync with this itunes library.

    There is currently no music on her iPhone and all the apps are already in the iTunes library on the mac that I want to sync it to so its not a problem, the apps won't be lost.
    My question is are photos and messages and contacts classified as iPhone contents? Because I don't want those to be wiped. So can I sync her phone to this iTunes library? I have not been able to find online whether or not photos and contacts will be lost.
    Also her phone is already backed up on this computer because it gets plugged into it all the time we have just not tried to put music onto it yet until now.
    Thanks for any help clarifying this

    Try redemaing an itunes gift card.
    Otherwise,
    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old
