IPod does not support FireWire anymore
I have learnt it. Can someone give me the detail of such discontinued support of iPod devices. Thanks!
The iPod mini and the iPod 4th gen were the last to support FireWire for syncing.
The new iPods will still charge with FireWire.

Hi... I would like to purchase a Tablet Sony Xperia Z 2 10.1 (the last one of the Z series) and I was told that Adobe does not support Sony anymore.... I need to be able to open and read Adobe PDF files and I would like to know if this tablet can still use Flash Player...
Is there anyo who can help me with this? I asked in the shop and I was told "yes of course" , but when I contacted Sony directly I was advised to check with Adobe as apparently in the recent months Adobe and Sony haven't been getting along anymore...You may be mixing up two entirely different Adobe products.
1. Adobe Flash Player. Needed to view web pages designed with Flash. Not needed to view PDF files. Not available for Android (not just Sony).
2. Adobe Reader. Reads PDF files. However, the Android can also read most PDF files without needing Adobe Reader. -
Yesterday 20 november I have made some purchases in Ittunestore. The download went well. Till the synch of itunes with ipod. Some of the downloaded music did noch synchronize. The message was: the ipod does not support the file format (mp4). Strange, right? All the rest of downloaded music items has been synchronised without any problems. What may be the problem?
For music files purchased via the iTunes Store, Apple has used the following file extensions -
.m4a unprotected AAC format music files
.m4p protected AAC format music files
.m4b protected Audio Books
.m4r unprotected ringtones in AAC format
As you can see Apple have never used .mp4 for music files via the iTunes Store.
For videos Apple use .m4v and these are in H.264 format.
You could try changing the file extension to .m4a, first then see if it plays on your computer and then try re-synching it. -

Why the iPod does not support Thai language
Why the iPod does not support the Thai language? iTunes supports it. If I drag a song with ID3 tags into my iPod the title becomes blank. If I remove the ID3 tags the title displays but the enconding of the characters are inccorect.
Why the iPod does not support the Thai language?
The languages supported by the iPod are listed in detail in its tech specs:
http://www.apple.com/ipod/specs.html
Hopefully future versions will expand the list to included Arabic, Hebrew, Thai, Vietnamese, Hindi, etc. -

Newest ipod gen,
My ipod won't sync about 89% of my library because 'it doesn't support the song' but I previously had the songs on my ipod, downloaded from the same computer. Itunes on my computer had issues and I'm now re syncing all music. How do I get my music back on my ipod if Itunes says it can't be synced?
Thanks!In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?

Why does appple not support Firewire to the 5th Gen ipods?
I just picked up a new 5th gen iPod and am upset that it does not allow for connection to my older G3 iMac via Firewire (as did my older iPod Photo 40).
I can connect it using usb 1.0 but that connection is painfully slow. Why not support Firewire conectivity? Perhaps Apple wants to force me to buy a new computer?
G3 imac (CRT) Mac OS X (10.3.9)
G3 imac (CRT) Mac OS X (10.3.9)"Apple is aware that iMac users could use Firewire with older iPods, but not my new one. It has nothing to do with updating computer hardware."
While it is true there is nothing you can update on your computer to make the iPod work on a Firewire port, it has everything to do with the fact that the iPod no longer supports the HARDWARE (i.e. chipset) for Firewire transfer in the iPod itself. It has been this way for well over a year now.
"IT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME THAT I NOW HAVE TO USE USB WHERE I USED FIREWIRE TO SYNC IN THE PAST."
Extending your flawed logic further, I used to be able to use SCSI drives, ADP keyboards and Mice, AUII network ports, RS-422 serial ports, etc. so should I still be able to use those now? How's that floppy drive working out on your Mac? Used to be those as well, so I guess your Mac has one now?
"This feature is dreadfully slow,"
Yes, USB1.1 ports are very slow which is why all Mac computers for MANY years now, have all come with USB2 ports for high speed transfer. While I know it ***** when you have an older computer that doesn't support the latest in higher speed ports, but you can not expect Apple to support all port types forever on every device and machine.
When the original iMacs came out, everyone moaned and complained about the loss of a floppy drive and all the devices that no longer would work, like tablets, because there were no ADB ports and all the external SCSI drives that couldn't be used. Guess what, everyone got over it and moved on. Now you would laugh it Apple put a floppy drive into a new machine.

IPod does not shut off (? firewire problem ?)
My Ipod does not shut-off and I don't wan't any of the "have you trouble shooted" have you restarted your iPod"....yes and yes I have done all the troubleshooting and have restored my ipod. It says
"FireWire connections are not supported. To transfer songs, connect the USB cable provided.
Press Center to Dismiss"
It says that on my iPod not on iTunes andI am connected to USB and I'm not even completly sure what a firewire port is and yes I do press eject everytime im done using iTunes and take out my iPod....I'm Stumped1. Try a different USB port on your computer.
2. If that doesn't work, try a different cable to connect your iPod,
3. If the above two steps do not work, check the connector on the bottom of your iPod and make sure there are no bent pins. -
i have an ipod touch and just updated my software to ios 7.1.2. Now I get the message that my adapter, accessory does not support my device. Is there a new adapter that I need to buy that works with the ios 7.1.2?
This is not my problem. However, I think it may be related to an old speaker. I was using the 30 pin adapter for about a week after the upgrade to 7.1.2. But I think with the update the speaker won't work anymore. I will try with a new speaker system. Thank you for trying to assist.

I can't install my old logic 8 on my new macbook pro. It says it does not support powerpc applications anymore. what do i need to do?? this is ridiculous!!!
Logic 8 will probably run on your new machine but the installation program contains some older PPC code for pre Intel Macs. This was not a problem as all OSX versions contained the "Rosetta" PPC emulation, that is, up until Lion when all PPC emulation was dropped.
There are ways to do this however, try searching Google for: Installing Logic 8 under Lion or Mountain Lion. -

please help me out to solve the issue.if any third party earphones support please let me knowIf the headphones are the Apple EarPods, it does not work with the 3rd gen shuffle (the remote control buttons do not work).
As an alternative, you can get an adapter like this one (there are several similar products)

"iPod software update server could not be contacted. The Server does not support this version of iTunes." iPod will not turn on or charge or reset settings. I tried plugging it in my laptop, house computer and docking station to charge and nothing. Also, I have all the latest software updates to my knowledge. This is a classic 8GB iPod, running of Windows 7. Any thoughts/suggestions?
only thing that seems to work so far is syncing without photos and also check here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3206849?start=30&tstart=0
