  • HT4914 my ipod mini to music on my home MAC

    I can't seem to put music from my home MAC backed up to the cloud to my office PC to place on a i-pod nano.  It looks like I have to take it home to sync directly with my MAC but I thought with i-tunes store and the cloud I should be able to do it from my workplace.

    You can redownload music from the iTunes Store from your office computer, assuming your company doesn't block access, as many companies do. See:

  • Is there a way of moving music from iPod Mini to computer?

    Hi, I've got heaps of tracks on my iPod Mini, that I don't seem to have in my iTunes Library...
    Is there a way to transferring these tracks back onto my computer?
    Thanks!

    You cannot do it using iTunes (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store).  However, if you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get links for third-party methods and utilities that can transfer song files from iPod to computer.
    NOTE:  Songs previously purchased from the iTunes Store can also be re-downloaded on the Purchased screen at no cost.

  • I can't download music to my iPod mini

    I need help. The description of my problem is extremely long. I had my iTunes library on a computer and then moved it to another computer (more specifically a PC) this is NOT when my problem occured. I imported some music to iTunes and successfully down loaded onto my iPod mini. The next day, I imported more music to iTunes and, when I tried to download it to my iPod mini, iTunes said that it could not read th iPod mini ant that I had to restore it to factory condition and re install the software. I did so and also re-registered my iPod mini with Apple.com. It has been five days since I did that, and I still can't download the music the music to my iPod eventhough it connects to iTunes and all of the music I imported is still on iTunes.

  • Transfering music from iPod mini to new computer

    Ok, so I have two older ipods; the mini and the 4th gen. click wheel version. I no longer have access to the computer that housed both iTunes libraries whatsoever. Now that I have a new comp, how do I transfer my iPod music from both items to the new itunes library?

    Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
    The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • Transfer iPod Mini music to iPod

    I was wondering if I could transfer my music from my iPod Mini to a brand new iPod instead of dragging music from the iTunes Library to the new iPod?
    I have some music that are not in the library, but are on the Mini.
    Do I need a special cable, software, or something???

    You can't transfer directly from one iPod to another, you need to get the content of your Mini back into iTunes so you can update the new iPod.

    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

  • I have an iPOD mini library and now have a IPhone 4S.  I updated my library and synced my phone to the library but can not figure out how to get the music library to download to my  iphone

    I have an iPod mini library which I have update. I now have an iPhone 4S which I have synced to the library using a MS XP computer. I can not figure out how to get the library to download to my iPhone?

    Thanks,  This caused me to go back and try again since the solution seemed so simple.  What I did was when it started downloading, it started with the iphones apps to my computer.  I did not want the apps downloaded on my computer so I stopped it.  If I would have waited, the music was uploaded right after the apps were downloaded.

  • Help! Can't transfer music to iPod Mini!

    Hi there!
    I had some CDs that went with my iPod mini that I do not have with me right now for installation when I wanted to set my iPod up with my computer.
    So instead of using the CDs, I downloaded iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ ... and I installed it on my computer. I have a Windows XP so I downloaded the one for Windows and so I installed iTunes.
    I've got iTunes set up and added music to my library but now I want to transfer it to my iPod mini. I connected the iPod to the computer's USB port and something popped up saying I needed to update my version or something for my iPod...
    So I did. I downloaded something called IPodSetup ... something similar to downloading the update for my iPod http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/programs/iPodUpdaterXP/ ... this isn't the website I downloaded it from but I downloaded the update from Apple's site I think.
    Upon installing that, it said that it was complete in updating... and so I reconnected my iPod and I get the "Please do not disconnect" ... and it pulls up a folder of some folders inside that for my iPod, and it doesn't stop saying "Please do not disconnect" ... I've looked in the mini-help adobe file but nothing there helped me either.
    Please someone help! I'd love to transfer music again to my iPod. I've reset my iPod so far... thought that might help.

    Yes. I have done that. I installed the update and then I connect the iPod to the USB port to the computer.
    When I do that, at the top left of my mini, a circle rotates clockwise I think with two arrows, and it loads my iPod as a driver I think... atleast that is what I think happens. It opens a window as "my name IPO (F:)" and inside that window is three folders

  • Moving iTunes Library from iPod mini to new computer (old hard drive dead)

    Hi all, I own a 2nd gen (I believe) iPod mini with all of my music from my iTunes library on it. Last weekend, my computer began freezing/crashing while loading my desktop, and a diagnostic confirmed that the read/write head on my hard drive was bad. I don't currently have the spare cash to send it away to a recovery lab, so I am starting from scratch with a new computer I will be ordering today.
    My question is this--is it going to be possible to transfer the music from my iPod to my new computer? Many of the songs on my iPod are from other sources, during the years that I was not using iTunes, and from what I have read I will only be able to transfer my purchased music. I know there is a way to make my iPod into a hard drive in order to transfer the music to my new computer, but as I said, I cannot even boot up my old machine, and thus cannot access my iTunes library on my HD.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions and advice you may have.

    I've had to do this in the past (4 years ago). Try this page for a list of programs that can help you:

  • How do I copy music from my iPod mini to iTunes?

    I accidentally deleted music from iTunes and can't find the original CD. The music is on my iPod mini, but I can't copy the music from the mini to iTunes. Help, please. Thanks!
    PC   Windows XP  

    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.

  • I have a ipod mini from 2005, it will only work on my charger.  I did get a new ipod 4touch, how do i get the music to the new one if i don't know the password of the mini.  My ex-husband set it up for me, i not aboout to call and ask for the password.

    I have a ipod mini from 2005,  it will only work on my charger.  I did get a new i pod touch 4, how do i get the music from the old mini to the new touch.  I have never put any music on it myself, my ex-husband did it all and has the password.  I never new it.  I'm sure not about to call him and I don't think he'd give it to me anyway.  Please help!!!

    I don't think the password will matter, because you can't use anything on the iPod or in iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store).  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    The simple software "lock" used on iPods should not prevent you from off-loading the song files.  Once the song files are on your computer, you can add them to your iTunes library.  Then, you can do a Restore on the iPod to give it a fresh start and sync it (and the iPod touch) as desired.
    NOTE:  For songs purchased by you from the iTunes Store, you can also re-download them to your computer at no cost, from the iTunes Store Purchased screen.  The link to Purchased is on the iTunes Store Home screen, under QUICK LINKS.
