Ipod New computer sync and homeshare problem?

I recently purchased a new laptop and used home share to transfer my i tunes libary. The first problem is i tunes has not moved all my music only the items purchased on i tunes which is only 5 albums! How do I get it to transfer all of my music?
Also on to 2nd problem, my ipod classic wont sync with my new laptop, I am not getting any error messages. I just click sync and its says syncing but after a couple of seconds ejects my ipod?
Please help, I want to turn my old computer off and get rid of it but cant until I have my music?
Thanks

I have a new computer and would like to take my
existing songs on my iPod shuffle and move them to my
new computer, but I receive a "sync and erase" error
message because my iPod is currently synced with
another computer. I understand that I'm not able to
sync with two computers, but is there a way to move
my current playlists to my new computer? I don't
want to sync back and forth- I'd like to swtich to my
new computer and stop using my old computer.
Hopefully, there's a way to permanently make a
switch.
Thanks for any help and suggestions.

  • Zen vsion M 30g computer sync and charge problem

    My Zen vsion M was baught from creative refurbished. It was working fine but stopped. I couldn't connect it to my computer because it wouldn't recognize that it was plugged in. There fore my battery couldn't charge and eventually ran out. If i plug it into my computer it has a black screen with the beattery charging symbol in the corner and the blue light under the power button blinks. Although it is plugged in it won't charge. I have had it plugged in to try and charge it for over 2 hours but it built up no charge. On any random occasion the Zen turns on and functions like it normally would only while being plugged it but it only functions as the player portion. It doesnt sync or recognize that its plugged in. What can i do to fix it's

    Are you still within the warranty ? If so send it back or buy a wall charger for it. The PSP (playstation portable) wall charger will work & is safe for the player using the Creative dongle .

  • Syncing and Charging Problem with 1st gen iPod nano

    I purchased a 1st generation iPod nano via eBay about 3 months ago and have developed an interesting syncing and charging problem.  When I plug the nano to my iMac, frequently neither the computer nor iTunes will recognize it.  I have done "the five R's" with occasional success.  I've tried jiggling the cable in the computer port and sometimes it works in getting iTunes to recognize the nano, sometimes it doesn't.  Even when I am able to get iTunes to recognize the nano, I have frequently found that the nano hasn't charged up at all.  In fact, a couple of times I found it almost totally drained of power after having been connected to my computer.  Yes, I have the most recent version of iTunes installed on my iMac and my iMac, by the way, is relatively new - having been purchased in May of this year.  What is interesting is that I've taken my nano to work and it has absolutely no problem charging up on my Dell (yuk!).  For the record, I do not have iTunes installed on my work computer and I am not allowed to add any apps to my work computer without the consent of my supervisor.  The chances of getting iTunes installed on my Dell at work are pretty much nil.  Any suggestions on how I can fix the problem?

    I bought a new USB dock connector and hoped, with fingers and toes crossed, that something positive would happen.  Sure enough, I was able to sync and recharge my old iPod nano.  I guess the original USB dock cable is on its last legs.  Not totally broken, but no longer reliable.  I consider my problem solved!    My thanks to everyone who took the time to read and try to solve my iPod problem.  I greatly appreciate it! 

  • I still have my iPod Nano 3rd generation, but my old computer crashed and I did not have itunes backed up, so I lost my library. Is there a way to get the songs from my old ipod to new computer library and then on to the new ipod?

    Save all the photos from your Droid into a folder on your computer.
    Connect your device to your computer. On iTunes left Pane, select iPhone under 'Devices'; then on the right Pane, select PHOTO tab.  Make sure Sync Photo box is checked, and "from" box selected the folder that has Droid's photos.  Then click the SYNC or APPLY button on the lower right window.

  • I have a new computer from my father that already has his iphone content on it.  what do i need to do to switch my phone over from my old computer to the new one and have the new computer sync MY contacts and content to the new computer without erasing

    okay from reading posts it seems if I transfer my backed up info from my old comp to the new one and erase my dad's phone's back up i could reset my phone and it would transfer all my old data back onto the phone, be linked to the new computer and i could proceed.  Where do i find the backed up info from my phone?

  • I have a new computer Window7 and can't get sharing for photos. If I reconnect to the old computer WindowsXP I can see photos. Is there a different setting in Window7?

    I recently purchased a new computer Window7 and no longer can find or share photos from my library. If I move back to the old computer WindowsXP I can share photos. Is there some setting that I'm missing on the new operating system that is preventing the sharing of photos?

  • Ipon nano 3rd generation red. Sync and storage problems.

    I have just got the new iPod nano (product red) 8 GB capacity. When i started to sync with my Intel Macbook i got suprised with a sync and storage problem. It starts syncing and suddendly it stops and lock the iPod and the Itunes. The must surprising is that happens every time the storage capacity reaches about 300 mb of music. Does anybody got this kinf of problem?
    I have tried all the solutions I have found: formatting the iPod, connecting on a PC, restoring the factory settings and nothing works.

    You'll want to copy what is currently on the Nano to your iTunes library on the laptop.  Your iPod can only be synced with one iTunes library at a time. See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

  • For some reason, I can not delete bookmarks. I did one at a time, then tried 5 or 6 and it worked once then no more. I then tried 1 at a time and it worked once the no more. This is a brand new computer (Win7) and FF just loaded about 3 hours ago.

    # Question
    For some reason, I can not delete bookmarks. I did one at a time, then tried 5 or 6 and it worked once then no more. I then tried 1 at a time and it worked once the no more. Why is this happening? This is a brand new computer (Win7) and FF just loaded about 3 hours ago. Do not know how the bookmarks even got in there. Some were ok, but no order and some that were never bookmarks. Looks like FF tried to import some BM's from the Virtual XP installed, but did not get it any where near right. I need to completely delete all of them and install from a saved .html file.

    Well, I did not see the exact problem that I was having listed in the articles, BUT the problem is solved for now.
    I opened FF and the Bookmarks to Organize again. I deleted all of the folders and entries, ONE AT A TIME, AND IT WORKED. Evidently, for what ever reason, FF did not like "Batch" deletes of ANY amount greater than 1 and the HANG UP would occur.
    Deleting one at a time then importing the good .html from a good file, loaded the wanted Bookmarks. Yea

  • I downloaded digital hd copies of movies onto my parents' computer and they have a new computer now, and the movies aren't there, even though they have the same apple ID. What do I do to get them to download?

    I downloaded digital hd copies of movies onto my parents' computer and they have a new computer now, and the movies aren't there, even though they have the same apple ID. What do I do to get them to download?
    New computer: Dell, Windows 8.1
    Processor: Intel Core i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz
    64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor
    16 GB RAM
    itunes up-to-date
    Old computer: Dell, Microsoft Windows XP
    Processor: Intel Pentium D CPU @ 2.80GHz
    1 GB RAM
    itunes not up-to-date (updating it isn't really an option)
    I have these movies downloaded on the old computer from digital hd redeemed codes: Fantastic Mr. Fox, Super 98, Thor, Inception, The Hunger Games, and Star Trek Into Darkness. I bought Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl on itunes with money, and that one isn't showing up either. When I search it on itunes to see if I can just re-download it, that isn't an option. I would have to buy it again. Home Sharing isn't what I want because the old computer will not be here forever and it is not connected to wifi.
    It's kind of a lot of movies, and I want them on the new computer.

    im so happy I have a iTunes Card Code absolutely free! I got it at http://linkbitty.com/freeitunes2014

  • Apple TV worked until today. Message says unsupported signal check your output device.  I have checked hdmi cable with another device and it's fine. Put on a different tv and same message.  Went out yesterday and bought a new Apple TV and same problem.

    Apple TV worked until today. Message says unsupported signal check your output device.  I have checked hdmi cable with another device and it's fine. Put on a different tv and same message.  Went out yesterday and bought a new Apple TV and same problem.

    Which TV do you have.
    You may wish to try the following:
    Press and hold the menu and the up button simultaneously on the remote for six seconds, the Apple TV should then begin to cycle through the various resolutions available to it at 20 second intervals.. If you see a picture appear up on your screen, use the remote to scroll down to the OK option and select it.

  • I use to have a iTunes account with my old computer, and I have lost all my iTunes music, some purchased, some downloaded from another source. Now I'm using a brand new computer (Windows) and I have opened a NEW iTunes account, but I need my music back...

    I use to have a iTunes account with my old computer, and I have lost all my iTunes music, some purchased, some downloaded from another source.

    Now remove all your info and update the old AppleiD/iTunes account and use only that account.
    You cannot transfer items between iTunes accounts.
    You can redownload all the content.

    If you can... you need to Upgrade your OS X to 10.6.8
    It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
    Do this first...
