Is there a way to see free space on an iPod in iTunes 11?

In iTunes 11 I can't find a way to see Remaining Space on a connected iPod. The graphical bar (which oddly only shows useful information when you mouse over it) shows space used, the Summary tab shows Capacity but nothing seems to show Free Space Remaining.
Am I missing this? How are we supposed to know what amounts of songs will fit when we manually manage our libraries (which I do because syncing is just a mess).
UPDATE:
Apparently, according to Apple, the only way is to mouse over the unused space in the graphical bar. Wonderful.
Thanks

The grey portion shows the remaining space on my device.

Is there any way to transfer the music already on ipod to itunes library

is there any way to transfer music already on my ipod to my itunes library without deleting the music

Here's more info for you.
Be very careful when connecting an iPod full of music to an empty iTunes library.There is very real risk of permanently losing all the music.
To prevent auto sync, before you connect the iPod go to the iTunes preferences and select "devices", then select "disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods".
An alternative method is to connect the iPod whilst holding down the 'control+shift' keys and do not let them go until your iPod appears in iTunes.
If you see a message that your iPod is associated with a different library and asks if you want to link to a new one, make sure you press "Cancel".
If you should click on "Erase and Sync" will erase all the content currently on your iPod and it will be replaced with the content of the iTunes library you just connected to.
When you've pressed cancel your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list under "devices" and allow you to change the update setting to manage the iPod content manually, and that will let you use your iPod for the time being without the risk of accidentally erasing the contents.
Then do any of the following to transfer your music from iPod back to the computer/iTunes.
For iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
Find out how to do that here.
How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod or iPhone to a computer.
For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it is a little more involved than other methods.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola and iDump and iPodRobot.
If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
More information is contained here.

NO. You have to set a pass code.
If you have an iCloud account, and if you set up Find My Phone, and if your iPod is turned on and if your iPod is connected to a WiFi network you can remotely wipe the device, or you can make it play a sound, or you can sent it a message....

Is there a way to see a list of songs bought via iTunes?

here's the situation...I was updating a friends iphone, it backed up and all was going well until it hung up in the middle and iTunes closed. I had to reset the phone (can't rememebr the term) anyway all contacts came back but not all the apps or songs that she bought with the phone. Is there a way to get a list of songs bought to the phone from iTunes so she can just put them back on. OR since the phone did backup to the computer where are they on the computer??
Thanks,
Mike

In iTunes on the computer, you can pull up your account (forget which menu item up top). From there you can pull up purchase history. It pulls what Apple has on record for you.

I deleted all my messages and it still shows my messages app is. Using like 3 GB of space in my settings. Is there a way to get the space back?

Go into iTunes store, open account and check purchases
Then re download that you have purchased though iTunes

Is there a way to see the full album names on my iPod Touch?

When albums have long names, they are cut off. This isn't normally a problem, except if the album is part of a multi-disc set, where the names all begin the same way, as shown in this screen shot of my iPod Touch
At the end of each album name is a number (I, II, III).

Flip the iPod horizontal and look at the cover flow mode. You will be able to see the complete album name, even if you don't have the artwork.

Several years ago, I downloaded a lot of music to my iPod (5th generation) from my computer. I have since replaced the computer and I no longer have my music on the new computer. Is there any way of recovering my music from my iPod to my computer.

Is there a way to see the photo information on the iCloud sharing pages?

There seems to be an issue with Apple wanting people to see the information for each photo easily. When I share a photo in a shared album on iCloud, I don't see the title nor do I see any photo information, only the date that the photo was shared.
I DO see the date of the picture when it's in slide show view, in light font at the bottom right-easy to miss, but not when it's the basic view that allows us to scroll through the photos.
Is there a way to see the title and date of the photos on the left where the black space is and the sharing info is?
It seems that this whole Photos program is half-done...
Thank you,
Dave

There is an App at the App store called "Battery Magic". You can get a trial version, (free) that will show you what you want to know, including battery life, and how long you can play games, music and other things on your current battery life.
You can also download the full version. I think its $0.99.

Is there a way to see a file browser on iCloud? It says my account is filled up to 5G already and I can't imagine what it moved over to there that was that big.

I'm wondering if it moved my rhapsody music to the cloud (which is pointless) so I shut off 'document' sharing in case that's the problem, but it's still saying I'm at 5G right now.
When I go to icloud.com all I see is the dumb app icons, with no clue as to what's taking up that disk space.
btw, I did not sync photos from the get-go.
A file browser? please? I need to see my cloud.

Have you enabled Automatic Downloads on all of your devices? This would download all of the books to all of your devices when you download on any device - as long as you are using the same Apple ID and iTunes account on all of your devices.
Go to Settings>Store>Automatic Downloads>Books>On. When you download a book on one iDevice, it will download to all of your iDevices. This will only work for downloads moving forward from the moment that you turn the setting on. You will have to download the previously purchased books to all of your other devices.
With iCloud, you can start reading the book on one device and then pickup where you left off on another device.

The paths won't agree on the two OSs so a simple XML import isn't likely to work.
See Sync iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers and, if needed, Make a split library portable. The techniques in the first link will work when moving the library between Windows and OS X as long as the library is "portable", but iTunes takes quite some time checking the database when the library is opened under a different OS.

My laptop screen when black now it will not turn on or off. And is there a way to see everything that has been done to my laptop at a apple store?

My laptop has been in the apple store to be fixed more times in the past 2 years then you could imagine. They just replaced a defective wire in it, and hardrive not even a month ago and now the screen just went black and wont turn back on. Also is there a way to see everything that has been done to this laptop through the apple store?

If I were you I would call Apple Customer Relations (800) 767-2775. Tell them exactly what you stated in your post in a polite way. See what they can do for you.

Yes. And also on Apple's repair history website.

Is there a way to "see" what font you're using?

Hi,
I'm a bit new to PAGES. I thought when you turn "Show Invisibles" you would see things like what font you're using . . . if it's bold or underlined or italicized - things like that - you would see these characteristics in the body of the document. So if I were writing a paragraph and changed the font in the middle of it, I could actually "see" a symbol indicating the font had been changed. That way, if you wanted to change it back, you could just delete that "invisible" symbol, and change it.
WORD seems to work like that. Is there a way to "see" these symbold in PAGES?
Thanks,
Larry

Thank you, Barry. At least you've confirmed what I thought
Interesting that WORD (which I hate) does such a nice job in this area. When you want to "see" invisible symbols - WORD shows them all to you. I thought it was nice to see exactly 'where' in the document a different font or style might start - that way you can eliminate it there - or change it there - etc. But PAGES, won't even show you. Wonder why they only show you 'some' invisible files?
Thanks, though, for your reply.

My macbook pro was stolen. How can I make sure that the one that is linked to find my mac is this one and not an older computer. Is there a way of seeing the serial number for the computer that is linked to find my mac?

Is there a way to see the IP addresses I logged in from?

Is there a way to see my IP addresses that I logged into my Apple ID from? Looking around other people thought this was just something Apple did from time to time, but I figure if I can see my login IPs I should be able to evaluate if there was any suspicious activity. I didn't see a way when I logged in to change my password as a precaution. Google does a good job of letting you see your IP logins.
I got this email from Apple
