IPod and Limewire issues

I just bought my $300 iPod, and right now for me, is worth crap. I have Limewire Pro and it is under the shared files in the iTunes page. I can never drag it, or do anything with it. I am thinking of returning it to the store for my money back, but if someone can please help me, that would be great!

You have Limewire pro and you can not drag it or do anything with it? (that is exactly what you said). Perhaps you could start again and example what you are trying to do.
If you are trying to add a shared library to your iPod you can't. So instead, go to File -> Add to library then navigate to your Limewire folder where you music is and pick that. All those songs, assuming they are in compatible music formats, will be added to your iTunes library. That should then transfer to your iPod ok.

  • Having trouble with 10.4.6 update - ipod and isight issues

    Hi everyone.
    Got my first mac a few weeks ago, and ran a host of updates all at once, so to be honest, I'm not sure which one is causing the problem.
    However, since running the following, my built in isight no longer works, telling me "no camera is attatched or it is being used by another app."
    I ran the updates whilst my ipod was connected (via USB), and now my ipod is not being recognised at all, in itunes or on the desktop.
    I've tried turning off, unplugging everything, deleting all 3rd party apps, but all to no avail.
    My main question is, is this a known problem and will a further update sort it, or do I have to contact apple and send it back?
    Thanks for reading this, and thanks in advance for any advice.
    Cheers, Ben.

    Some sucsess so far.
    If I plug the ipod into my hub then it seems to work fine. But both my ipod and an external drive don't work through the other two usb ports. I'm assuming that that must make it a hardware fault, but odd that it should only occur after the update!?
    I'm currently backing up everything, but once that's done I will try different devices through different ports.
    The isight is the built in one though, and doesn't appear in system profiler. Once I've backed up I might try reinstalling photobooth, imovie and ichat. If that fails I might reinstall os x.
    Does this all sound resonable?
    And thanks for the help! The speed and quality of the replies have really impressed me.

  • Cannot restore ipod and other issues.

    If someone can solve my ipod issues, you will totally make my birthday. Here's the deal. Sometimes when I connect my Ipod to my computer, it sees it as a just a removable disk drive. When that happens, Itunes tells me that my ipod is corrupt. When it tells me I should restore, it then tells me error 1418. I followed the steps on the post on here about that error code and it doesn't work. However, sometimes my computer recognizes my ipod, a message will pop up from memory card manager saying failed ot locate supported file types or there are no photos found on this device. Then my ipod will sync in itunes and start copying files. It says it's copying (which in actuality it's not copying anything or i might get a song or two to copy to my ipod) but then it stops and a message pops up saying, The ipod "Mike's ipod" cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found. I just don't know what to even try anymore. I've looked at so many posts and still nothing works. Please if anyone can help me I'd appreciate it so much!!!

    Hi,
    Ok, there seems to be a problem... I've now been running Disk First Aid Erase on my iPod for an hour and a half. So far the blue bar showing progress seems to be stuck on about 5mm in...
    Btw... there's been 2 people w probs posting here (I couldn't find the link to make a new post and joined this as it had similar probs)- the original guy has sorted his problem. Mine revolves around an iPod that showed up corrupted when I plugged into my Mac after not using the iPod for a couple of months.
    iTunes can't restore it - error sign... As it also now shows up unrecognizable when I plug it into my Mac but with a "you can intialize" possibility I'm trying that as suggested. That takes me to Disk First Aid where pod erase seems to be stuck....
    Hope somebody out there can help... thanks!

  • IPod and computer issues...

    I have returned my 6GB and found out that they don't make the mini's any longer. Could this be true? Any way, I had to get a 4GB instead (the new iPod wasn't for sale yet at the store). I've read the countless of issues with the mini so that I don't know what the heck is the problem. Is it the iPod, the computer, the USB port, the iPod cable.
    My computer sometimes recognizes the iPod, then it stops for a bit. I toy around with the cable, then reset, then reboot my computer and viola...it recognizes. That is until I hear the slight ding from my computer that the iPod connection was lost. I have deleted and re-installed both iTunes and iPod updater countless of times, in addition to changing over to 3 different computers in my home. Any solutions? Perhaps, this is why Apple doesn't make mini's any longer?

    Good Afternoon, James Bond (great tag name): Yes, I am using the back-end USB port on my laptop. Do you think that the issue might be using a laptop vs. a desktop? I read somewhere in the discussions about similar laptop issues.
    I have actually tried unsuccessfully using both of my laptop USB ports. I thought it was the iPod cable not fitting correctly/snug in the port. I hooked up my digital camera and my Treo phone, and they worked just fine. I then came to the conclusion that perhaps it is a software conflict (I have Treo and Palm software, Norton Antivirus and Firewall, ACT Database). What threw me for a loop was everything downloads just fine, but as soon as I plug in that little white iPod cable, it starts getting a tyrannical attitude.
    There was probably nothing wrong with my original iPod that I returned. I returned it because it had absolutely no life no matter how many restores, reboots, deinstalls and reinstalls I did.
    If you have other solutions, then let me know. Thanks for your kind response. M Manriquez

  • Downloaded ios 8.2  on my ipod and having issues

    please can give any advice on the problem with the download

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                                                       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • TS1718 I have purchased two complete albums in the last three weeks, old Bob Seger and new Maroone 5, both have the same issue, only a few songs will play and will skip over the rest of the songs on IPod and on computer????

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the corrupt tracks from the music section of your iTunes library, close & then reopen iTunes, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unchecked. This seems to help with partial downloads...
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the "Report a problem" links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

  • Is there another bug fix coming soon. IpadAir, iPod and iPhone are still having many, many issues even with the last update. IOS8 has been a disaste! 

    Many features are still having issues, including basic iPad, iPod and iPhone functions that used to be rock solid. When can we expect the next SW releases?

    I have that exact same problem! It plays albums fine. But individual songs including ones downloaded from iTunes either skip or play the music of another totally different song. All play fine on iTunes and my iPhone... Got this one to replace my dying 5th gen classic.
    I hope there is a fix for this, cause it *****!!!!

  • I NEED HELP! IPOD AND ALBUM ARTWORK ISSUES

    I can use the music store and surf the internet fine. BUT, I try to use the ministore and with the new itunes, update mmy ipod and download album artowrk, it says itunes cannot connect, please make sure my connection is active. I tried the network diagnostics and it said network failed, but in the report, it says it connected to the music store. I dont understand, this shouldnt be because I can use the music store no problem. What is odd is on my other accounts on the computer, this issue doesnt exist. I dont recall changing any settings. Can someone help please?

    You can get album artwork from various other sources as well as Amazon. You can even locate artwork using Google image search by using the artist or album name. I find this site is a good source of artwork: CD/Album Cover Art Search from SlothRadio.
    Locate the album from any of those sources, right click on the image and save it to the desktop, once it's there drag it to the iTunes artwork pane. Once you've added the artwork you can either delete the original file or keep it in a folder somewhere in case you need to use it again. Alternatively there are programs like these that help locate artwork: iTunes Art Importer or MP3 Tag

    Hi Ken,
    Wow, I've logged into adobe and never seen your response until now.
    I need to make the forums more of a daily stop I guess.
    Thank you for your response, When I go to the Archives, it states I have none. In addition, previously when I'd tried to move items to the archive, they just disappeared  
    Currently my desktop is not connecting at all, Everytime I connect, it's states "We have now logged you out" and requests I login again.
    I have of course rebooted,
    Gone into taskmanager, killed all the relevant threads,  tried again to login through the desktop, no luck, I'll have to uninstall it, make sure the threads are killed, then reboot it and then reinstall it, but I've not had the time to do that.
    On another note, and just as a point of reference, myself, personally, I hate these "cloud" file repositories (not to be confused with adobe cloud services which I love) but the file repositories themselves imho, are a blackhole of resource usage when one doesn't/isn't using them,
    Is there a way we can use it more of a "ftp" sort of thing, when I want to I can  put files there?  There is no way to "Download" the repository, no way to download the folders.. only individual files and then it takes I think three different steps before the download starts.. I find this very inhibiting.  Just an fyi. for what it's worth.
    Please, feel free to contact me,
    I'm on g+ chat [email protected]

  • I used to download illegal music files from limewire, I don't anymore though, and I've since deleted them all from my iPod and will never do it again, but could I get in trouble for what I did before?

    And how can I delete the illegal music files on iTunes that me and my brother used to download? Maybe I could delete or report the music files, I really love apple and I really don't want to do this illegal stuff anymore. It's really not fair to anyone and it's also wrong. (Something I somehow couldn't see when I first got my iPod back in 2009) I buy all my music from iTunes now on my iPod, and have since deleted all the data which includes all the songs from my iPod (for a while I didn't use my iPod for music, just games) I am now afraid to put the songs I purchased and downloaded on iTunes on my computer with all of the pirated music! Please help, I really just want to know overall if apple could hate me for this, and what I can do to delete all the songs from iTunes (like the ones me and my brother downloaded that he still uses, though I guess I can't control that.)
    Is it just me or was I never meant to feel like an honest user? (I really want to feel like I am)

    Firstly, where do I go to delete the songs from my hard drive? Can I delete them straight from iTunes?
    You can delete them right from iTunes:
    - Click on the song to highlight it (select it). Alternatively, you can Control-Click on a number of songs to select them.
    - Go to Edit in the Menu bar and choose Delete (alternatively, you can Right-Click on the song and choose Delete from the pop-up menu.
    - You'll be asked "Are you sure you want to remove the selected song from your iTunes library." Click Remove.
    - Next, you'll be asked " Do you want to move the selected song to the Recycle Bin, or keep it in the iTunes Media folder?" Click "Move to Recycle Bin"
    - Empty The Recycle Bin on your desktop.
    Can I delete all the illegal songs including the ones my brothers (Apparently more than one are doing this) downloaded? Would it be somehow against the rules to delete their songs even if they didn't pay for them?
    It's best to talk to your brothers before deleting their stuff. Tell them how uncomfortable you feel about having 'stolen property' in your shared iTunes Library.
    Could their downloading of these songs get me in trouble somehow? And lastly, should I still use iTunes on this computer if they're doing this?
    If this is your computer and the Music Distributers find out through your Internet Service Provder that you/your brothers are illegally downloading/sharing music then you can get in trouble.
    You can continue to use iTunes but I would really try to get this resolved with your brothers. Hope this helps and as I said earlier, you are doing the right thing by buying music legally!
