Ipod access for windows

Hi everyone
I recently had a error screen on my ipod 5th generation and it asked me to restore to the factory settings which i did.
Since my library had been transfered back to my computer using Ipod Access for Windows program (i had to format my computer at one time) well now i am getting nothing but errors messages when i want to transfer back all my songs.
Here is the Error message: Attempting to copy to the disk "Jewels IPOD" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to.
Is there any way to by pass the songs that there is an error to them, so that i can stop crabbing about deleting them and restarting the process
thank you so much JEWELS

See if this troubleshooting article helps.

I have a 30 gb ipod formatted for windows I would like to reformat for a macbook

I have a 30 GB ipod formatted for windows How can it be reformatted to work with my macbook?

This process will delete all songs in your iPod. (Sorry if I sound like some outcountry Helpdesk)
But you can transfer Windows iTunes library to your Macbook.
1. Connect to your Macbook, close iTunes if it opened up.
2. Open up Disk Utility, select Checksum CRC
3. Select your iPod icon.
4. Click on Erase tab
5. Select Mac OS X Journal format
6. Press Erase button and wait for about 20 minutes
When it finishes, Itunes will launch and prompt for Restore, so just follow the prompts.
Have a nice day!

HT1238 I can't run iPod utility for Windows in my Windows 8 . does this apps support windows 8 ?

I can't run iPod utility for Windows in my Windows 8 . does this apps support windows 8 ?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
iPod Utility for Windows hasn't been updated for a long time, so it's probably not supported in Windows 8. Have you tried to run it in compatibility mode?

How do I reformat an IPod Touch for Windows that has been formatted for a Mac? All instructions I have been able to find use ITunes or Device Manager to reformat. My IPod is not being recognized by ITunes or in Device Manager.

I have an IPod Touch that has been formatted for a Mac. All instructions I have been able to find use ITunes or Device Manager to reformat the device for Windows. This cannot be done if Windows doesn't recognize the device. Is there another way to set the device back to the factory settings directly on the device without using ITunes?

Ipod touch is not formatted one way or the other at all.
Just sync it to the new computer using itunes.

IPod formatted for windows... not working on mac! ***????

Hi all...
My iPod mini was my first apple product over a year ago... worked awesome on my Dell laptop. Then I got this Dual Core G5 and the dang thing isn't recognizing any music?!?! Because it is formatted for windows, I can't install an update it is telling me it needs. I am assuming this is why itunes can't see it and my kick butt G5 is being ******** with not showing any of the music on it... any ideas?
I have read the other threads and can't find anything like this... so how can I use this thing on both machines? or did Apple "F" this thing up?
Thanks

Yes, it shows up on desktop but only the calendar, notes, contacts are accessible...
No, iTunes does not recognize it even if I force it into Disk Mode... weird. I am beginning to think I need to keep it on the mac 100% and stop using it on me PC... but that stinks? My Dell is portable, this G5 is not!

No guest access for Windows clients

Since installing the 10.4.11 OS X Server update, Windows clients can no longer browse the list of shares. Guest access is allowed in the Windows service, and one of the shares does have Guest access enabled. I went so far as to allow R+W for the unknown and unprivileged groups.
The logs show the windows user account failing authentication, which shouldn't even be necessary since Guest access should give them explicit access anyway. The Windows client gets prompted for a user name and password, which does authenticate properly if an actual account is entered. For some reason, this client's IT department is adamant about allowing guest access. Any clues?

Hi,
I know it is a common issue, but the answer you link to is very old and for Windows NT4 and Windows 2000.
I should be possible to enable NAT on the VPN server as described here:

But I cannot get it to Work.

Connecting an iPod formatted for Windows to a MAC

OK here's my situation:
I have a Sony laptop (running XP Pro) that my 8GB iPod nano (G2) is currently "synched" to. Last November I got a new iMac (Leopard, 10.5.2), which I've been meaning to figure out how to transfer all my mp3's from my laptop (PC) to iMac (separate issue).
I never got the chance- my laptop was stolen a week ago. I have yet to break the news to my iPod, which is- I'm guessing- formatted for Windows. I'd like to connect my iPod to my iMac and salvage the 8GB of music on there. I'd estimate that 20% of the music on my iPod was purchased on iTunes, but the rest came from CD's that I uploaded onto my PC. I know about re-downloading purchased music, but what about the rest? I don't have all my CD's anymore =(
Thank you in advance-
Josh

Hey Josh,
Sorry to hear about your stolen laptop. That stinks.
But the good news is Macs can read Windows formatted iPods just fine and there are ways to get your stuff off the iPod and onto the Mac.

IPod Nano Sync with Mac, but iPod formatted for Windows

I finally changed to the Mac platform and all my iPods and iPhones were synced with a Windows based computer. While my iPhones were not a problem, my iPod Nano (4GB 2nd generation) seemed not be recognized by my iMac.
I can't seem to get my iMac to show the iPod under Devices to reformat it. Anyone have any advice to give?
I have plugged it in to a my Windows based work laptop and it seems to work fine. However I don't sync with that machine and I have already sold my old Windows based computer it was synced to.
Thanks in advance for the help.

I have three iPods: 40GB iPod photo, 2GB black iPod nano and 1GB iPod shuffle. Each one has it's own playlist to auto sync songs from (technically, the 40GB iPod is synchronized manually, but the other two have playlists to sync automatically from). They each have different names so iTunes knows they're each different. So, you shouldn't have any trouble keeping just two iPods separate with your Mac mini or iMac.

IPod formatted for windows, connected to mac accidentally

I have an iPod video, 30GB. I formatted it for use with my windows laptop.
Then, my mother hooked it up to her macbook pro. No syncing took place and it didn't show up in iTunes. However, now neither machine will show the iPod in iTunes. The windows machine, on connection to the iPod, brings up an error message saying the iPod is corrupted. When connected to the Mac, the iPod spontaneously crashes iTunes even before it opens.
Through a series of unfortunate events, much of my music is not on hard drives aside from my iPod, so any help resolving this issue without restoring the iPod would be greatly appreciated.

Mac Os X will read Fat 16, Fat32(the windows default for iPod) .
I believe it will read, but not write to NTFS.
Windows can not read or write to HFS(Mac OS X format and iPod for Macs) drives.

Reformat 60g ipod video for windows

I would like to reformat a recently purchased ipod already mac formatted (and loaded with files) to windows. The idea would be to use the ipod and itunes with both pc and mac.
I haven't purchased any songs from itunes and plan to use my existing music as mp3s rather than m4p or m4a on the ipod.
I have an external hard drive (formatted fat32) which can be used to back up music/video files which reside on the mac computer (and are also present on the ipod), transfer them over to the pc, then back onto the ipod again after formatting.
I've read that apple does not officially support a windows formatted ipod to be used on a mac. I've also read that using an ipod formatted fat32 on a mac slows down read/write in itunes, etc, but not sure if that also applies to the latest ipod video units.
Can someone verify this? I would like to be able to use the ipod on both platforms.
Can I just format the ipod with windows into fat32, or do I have to use the apple software to do this?
Would using the ipod like this be more trouble than it is worth?
dell Windows XP

Thank you Niel.
I have an old winme computer that I've been using to format my external hard drives to FAT32 and have had success for 200g and 300gb drives which xp and mac then recognize, but there probably is some advantage in using Apple's refomating software for the ipod, so I will use that.
The ipod will be used on both xp and mac. I came across a post regarding using one of the older ipods formated in FAT32 and how that file system slowed certain functions with the mac as opposed to HFS formatted ipod and was wondering if anybody has experienced this with the ipod video.
When using ipod with both xp and mac, are there any other issues to be concerned with, like syncing with itunes, etc?

Sharepoint access for Windows XP & Windows 2000 workstations

We just had an outside vendor upgrade our MAC environment. A 10.4.3 X server was installed and a sharepoint setup for our marketing department. All of the MACs and Windows XP workstations can access the sharepoint without any issues but if a Windows 2000 workstation attempts to access the sharepoint they are prompted to authenticate but there domain UserID & Password do not work. If the users go to a Windows XP workstation they can access the sharepoint properly. What do I need to configure to allow our Windows 2000 workstations to connect properly to the X Server sharepoint?
Thanks

I recently did a clean install of Win7 Ult on my X61 7676A24, and this is the only Lenovo software that I could not find a Win 7 solution for. However,
1. I was able to load WinDVD8 upgrade (from Lenovo's Win7 information page) after first loading the WinDVD5 version that was the last good release for Vista.
2. The Multimedia Center for Think Offerings is basically Roxio's suite for writing cd/dvd's, drag to disc and so on.
Since I could not load this anyway, I was forced to try out Win7's inbuilt cd/dvd writing - it works perfectly well. Even better, Win7 natively supports an excellent ISO burning tool. So, I think if you explore these inbuilt tools, you can probably live without the Mul Cent for Think Off.

Remote access for Windows Server 2012

Hello there,
I have a dedicated Windows Server 2012 server, and I need remote access from a PC from a Mac OS X simultaneously.
Today, I use Remote Desktop Connection on the Mac and TeamViewer on your PC.
The problem is that the PC loses connection when Remote Desktop Connection is closed!
What is the solution for either the PC or the Mac or the two at the same time to access the server desktop?
Is there a setting that allows TeamViewer this?
Should I use or purchase additional software? if so, which one?
In short, what is the best solution to this problem?
Thank you!

We use RDP through VPN, so there is no forwarding ports, it is as if we are on the same network. This way, you do not have to worry about hackers, as you are in a secure VPN.
Are you doing this from a different office, from home, from a computer in the next room on the same network? What level of remote access are you looking at?
RealVNC is a good solution, but again, if you are outside the network, you will either need to go through a VPN to keep it secure, or open ports on the firewall. RDP will give you the ability to have two concurrent users (although with different usernames)
logged on at once. The limitation of only one user is a session limit on the computer itself, if one person is logged in as administrator, if someone else tries to RDP and log in as administrator, they will take over the session. This is
the same with other solutions. RealVNC is using a console session, so if another person uses VNC, they will see the already open console session, and possibly take over the others VNC session.

Which DVD to iPod Method (for windows) has the highest quality?

Hi everyone! This is the first thread I have started! *pats himself on back*...
...O.K. down to buisness...
Does anyone know or tested which dvd to ipod conversion method is best? I have looked at most of the threads here about the conversion methods, and I was wondering which had the highest quality picture, quickest conversion time, and taks up the least memory. Feel free to post your opinions, but I feel tested responces are more helpful. Thx for your time...

'dvd decrypter' is phenominal. all it essentially does is takes the '.vob. file off the dvd. it takes up alot of space, but the quality is perfect. somewhere on videora.com there is a link... its free too. as for a converter, ive tryed most of them, and totally preferred videora, onyl because it converts any type of file.
