Is there a way to selectively download from your Itunes library?

I have a 4G and download tunes + podcasts - 3G memory consumed.
Now I bought a 2G and want to use it just for podcasts.
Can you do this and from the same computer?
Thanks - p

Thanks a bunch but my ignorance is still in control.
I hook up the new nano, name it, get a new screen which asks "do you want to automatically download?" All very clear.
BUT, I check that - think I shouldn't have and it starts downloading what looks like the total library which I didn't want ("downloading 3 of 300 files etc)
Do you know how I start over and presumeably I shouldnt check that 'automatic' box?
Thanks again - p

  • Is there any way to share music from my itunes library with a iphone not synced with my mac?

    I use my itunes with my Iphone, But my husband has an iphone also and wants some music from my library to be put on his phone. How can i do this without transfrring his iphone to my itunes and visa versa?

    No. Ignore the above post as it is completely wrong, & the poster has no idea what he/she is talking about. By design, an iPhone will sync or manually manage iTunes content with ONE computer at a time. Any attempt to do so with a second computer will result in ALL iTunes content being first erased from your phone, to be replaced with the content from the second computer.

  • Is there a way to delete music from the iTunes library whilst keeping it on your iPhone/device?

    I would like to keep my entire music library on my iPhone but not on my actual laptop.
    Previously with my iPod classic, I could add music manually via iTunes and once it was on my iPod classic, then delete it off my laptop. I have tried to do the same with my iPhone but each time I try to unselect the "Sync music" box in the music section it tells me that it will delete all music off my iPhone if I continue.
    Can anyone help?
    Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you!

    You could also batch select the songs (works for songs in order, such as an album - click the first song you want deleted, hold down Shift, then click the last) and hit the Delete key on your keyboard. You can also choose multiple random songs by clicking one, holding Ctrl on your keyboard and clicking the others you want selected, then hitting the Delete key.

  • Is there a way to "deauthorise" computers from your apple ID without having access to those computers?

    Is there a way to "deauthorise" computers from your apple ID without having access to those computers?

    Hi there ellou86!
    I have an article here for you that can help you with this question:
    iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
    Specifically, it seems that this is the portion of the article that is most relevant to your question:
    To deauthorize all computers associated with your Apple ID
    If you need to authorize your new computer and are unable due to already having five authorized computers, you can deauthorize all computers by doing the following:
    Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
    If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
    Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
    In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.
    Note: You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than two authorized computers. If you need assistance on using this feature, please contact iTunes Store support via email (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/).
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • Is there a way to buy something from an iTunes store other than my own local one?

    Is there a way to buy something from an iTunes store other than my own local one?

    No, unless you have a valid billing address in that country and you are in that country when purchasing from it - otherwise you can only purchase from the store that is based in the country where you are.

  • Is there any way to make my iPod THE iTunes Library?

    Is there any way to make my iPod THE iTunes Library? I would like to free up all the space my iTunes Library takes up on my MacBook Pro, so I was considering purchasing an portable external hard drive to hold my iTunes Library…then it dawned on me… why shouldn’t I just be able to use my iPod for this? But not as simply a hard drive, but be able to access my songs on the iPod the same as I do now?

    You can delete all the songs from your computer and just keep them on the iPod by changing the update option of your iPod to "manually manage music and videos". In manual mode you can connect and play the songs from your iPod through iTunes on your computer. You can get details here: Managing content manually on iPod
    One major word of caution. If you delete songs from your computer and have no back up other than the iPod you will risk losing them permanently if your iPod fails or you find you have to restore it to solve a problem (and that's a very strong possibility). You should reconsider your original idea of investing in an external hard drive to store/back up your music. Alternatively at the very least back up songs you can't replace such as iTunes downloads to CD or DVD. Forum member Buegie has compiled a very extensive procedure for backing up your music which you'll find at this link: Backing up iTunes
    Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod

    Is there a standard approved method of transferring your itunes library from an old pc (windows Vista) to a new one (almost certainly Windows 7)? I can't find anything on the standard Apple websites.
    If not, how do people do it generally?

  • Can you add items to your iPad from your iTunes library through home sharing?

    Sorry I'm a novice to this.
    Say I have a video in my iTunes library and I would like to add it to my iPad so I can watch it when I'm not at home without hooking the iPad up to my PC and syncing.
    Can I do this through home sharing?
    Thanks

    Sorry, I miss-typed in my previous post. I meant to say you can't use homesharing to transfer content. (dictation got it wrong, but I should have checked). In order to transfer content from your iTunes library to your iPad, you would need to connect it to your computer via USB or Wi-Fi if you have Wi-Fi syncing enabled.
    To enable Wi-Fi syncing you must first connect your iPad to your computer with the USB cable and then turn Wi-Fi syncing on in the settings within iTunes.

  • Is there any way to re-download something on iTunes?

    I downloaded an LP from a new album, but one of the bonus videos that came with the album is skippy and I think it might be because I paused the download on the LP and that might have messed it up. Is there any way I can download it again, seeing as I purchased it and it is my property?

    I don't know if the bonus material is available for re-downloading, but go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. You can see if the bonus material is listed there. If so, delete it from iTunes and you should then be able to re-download it.
    For full instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
    If it's not listed there, go here:

    and follow the instructions to report the problem with the video to the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

  • Is there ANY way to transfer songs from ipod to library???

    I have an Ipod mini, and I have received about 200 songs from 3 or 4 of my friends libraries, but now I can't put those songs in MY library. I really want to burn some of them onto cd's etc etc in case my ipod goes down, but the songs need to be from your LIBRARY. Is there ANY way to do this (trick, program, accessory, etc??)
    If not, is there any way to burn songs from ipod to a cd?? I want to get a support together in case my computer or ipod break. Thank you!!

  • Is there a way to import a cd into itunes library unchecked by default?

    I'm in the process of importing all of my cd's into itunes library, but I want the tunes unchecked in the library so they won't automatically update into my ipod. Right now I've got itunes set up to automatically import a cd I insert and then eject on complition. Then I have to open the library, find the songs, and uncheck them. Is there a way to automate the unchecking process? Thanks.

    I don't know how to automate what you are doing however if it's all the songs in your library that are affected it's quite easy to check or uncheck them all at once without searching.
    To check or uncheck all the songs in a list:
    Control-click the checkbox next to a song.
    Windows Keyboard Shortcuts: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/windows/shortcuts/
    Also, if for a period of time you don't want your iPod automatically updated while you are importing your CDs why not change the update option?
    For info:
    The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
    1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
    2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
    3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.
