Ijust got my new ipod video,and when putting videos onto it,,,,,
the audio doesnt come out,so i went on the help faq and it said i needed a third party video converter to put the videos on it.So does anyone here know of any?And if you do can you tell me how to operate it?Thank you in advance
Here's one of many:
Hopefully in answer to the many posts on “how to get various video formats onto your iPod” I have put together a summary of applications I use. I have tried a few others with varying amounts of success (some of which are free) - I have finally plumped for the software produced by Xilisoft as providing good quality video relatively affordable cost for use withPC’s and numerous MS operating systems. The link below takes you to their site which not only allows you to download trail versions of their software but also has a comprehensive set of tutorials and FAQ's for their iPod video conversion software.
I have regularly used these applications to convert various file formats to iPod friendly video. They are simple to use although frequently processor and RAM hungry:
Use Xilisoft iPod Video Converter if you want to:
[*]Convert various video file formats to MP4
[*]Convert most audio file formats to MP3
[*]Extract audio from video file and save to MP3
[*]Encode several files simultaneously
[*]Pause encoding process to run other CPU time consuming programs at any time
Supported file formats:
Video:
[*]MPEG(mpg, mpeg, dat, vob); WMV; ASF; AVI; QuichTime(mov, qt); MPEG4(mp4); 3GP; DV(dv,
dif); Real Video(rm); Animated GIF(gif - decoding only); Macromedia Flash(swf - decoding
audio only);
Audio:
[*]MPEG Audio(mp2, mp3); WMA; WAV; AU; MPEG4 Audio(m4a); Real Audio(ra); OGG; AAC; Raw
AC3(ac3); NUT Open Container Format(nut);
To convert DVD's to an iPod friendly video format:
Use Xilisoft DVD to iPod V4:
[*]Just pop the DVD in your drive select compression variables (default settings work well) and sit back!
All these products are available on a "try before you buy basis", yes there are applications for XP which are free but and may work just as well but I have converted many hours of video for my iPod without hassle using the Xilisoft products (no I don't work for them!). Check there web site HERE

I just got a new ipod 5 and when I plugged in the charging cord that came with it, it says it is not supported, and may not charge. It worked the first few times, but now it won't charge at all.
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. The cable as well as the iPod, is covered by the warranty.

I got a new ipod touch and when I went to text it used my Dad's number. I want to use our family's itunes account (for music etc) but have my own id/number for texting. What do I do?

My daughter got a new ipod touch and set it up using my apple id. Once she sync'ed it, she had all my contacts, so she went ahead and deleted the ones she didn't want. Unfortunately, my iphone then sync'ed to the cloud and all my contacts were wiped out (the ones she deleted).
So, I wiped my iphone and did an icloud backup/restore. This restored all my apps, but my contacts are still the ones from when my daughter did her update. It doesn't appear as though I got back my contacts, even though I chose an icloud backup from before the deletion. Logging into icloud shows the reduced/deleted contacts, not the full list I had, and I can't see a way to revert back to an old copy.
Any ideas? I thought restoring from the cloud would have done it, but the contacts I got were the 'current' copy, not an older/archived copy.
I'd appreciate any ideas. None of the articles I found seemed to address retrieving an 'old' copy of your contacts from the cloud.The "system" performed as designed. All devices syncing to one iCloud account are kept in common sync. The idea is that all such devices belong to one user. Different users should have different iCloud accounts. Once your contacts were edited, all devices were updated as well and subsequent backups (from yours and her device) reflected the changed contacts (and any other data that may have been edited like calendars). Your first task is to change your daughter over to a new account before she makes other changes.
The only way I see for getting back contacts is to restore them from a time machine backup, assuming you also have a Mac included in the account which syncs the contacts. However, I'm not sure whether time machine includes contacts from iCloud along with those that are local, "on my Mac".
Otherwise the deleted contacts are gone. -
I have bought a new ipod touch and when i went to sync my music library on to it only a few songs went over, the ones that didnt had a ! next to them. I had no problem when using my last ipod touch but i was using a pc at the time not a mac though.
Hi there,
This usually meas that iTunes can't find the original files. I would recommend taking a look at the article below for some tips on locating that lost media.

My daughter bought a new ipod touch and when synced received the contacts from my iphone. She deleted the ones she didn't want on her ipod and now they are gone from my iphone. I have the cloud and i thought back up on itunes. I have tried to re-sync and no luck. How can I get my contacts back?
Your problem is that she used your icloud ID to connect to icloud and thus had all your data synced to her device. Contacts are not saved in a backup to icloud, since they are stored independently in the Contacts section of icloud. If someone deletes them, they are gone. If you had them on the PC would they be available in some backup you frequently make of the PC?

I just bought a new ipod touch and when i plug it into my Mac usb port nothing is happening I can get the computer to sync other ipod in the same port
Try:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
Do not omit the Additional Information paragraph.
Is the iPod that connects an iPod touch? If not that does not mean anything since iOS devices like iPod touch, iPhone and iPad use different drivers than other iPods. -
I just got a new iphone 5,and when I try to update my phone, and install the aps that I've already purchased onto it, it says I don't have permission to do so.
Contact your carrier & have them reset your Voicemail. Most carriers require such, so after they reset it, just set it up again.

Just brought a new iPod touch and when I set it up (twice now, after resenting to factory settings) there are grey squares on all screens at the top and the apps over these squares won't open. Any suggestions?
I can't envision what yo are seeing.
If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..
