ITunes: No option for manual update

Hi All,
I recently bought a new IPOD shuffle. I tried to install iTunes from the CD provided with the ipod, but it was giving some error at the end of installation. I have norton antivirus on my machine and Windows XP professional. Finally I downloaded iTunes from Apple's website(Version 6.0.5.20) and that worked. But this iTunes does not have manual update option.
Then I used itune to transfer mp3 files on my CDs to the ipod. Ipod works fine. However when I dock ipod to get some other music files from different CDs, the songs from first CD are erased from my ipod.
Could anybody please suggest some solution?
Thanks,
MYR.

The iPod shuffle does not support the manual update option. You need to use a different model of iPod if you want to sync songs to it from two or more iTunes libraries, or if you want to put music on the iPod without keeping it in the iTunes library.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
When it says place the iPod in recovery mode ue one of these programs:
For PC
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
For MAC or PC
The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

HT4623 i just bought an iPad from a friend. I think is generation 1 or 2 not sure where to look for this. Bottom line, I would like to update it to iOS7. Is this possible? It does not have the option for software update.

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and antivirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
How to Upgrade to iOS 7
The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
Go into the iPad's Settings.
Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
To upgrade using iTunes:
First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
Now you are ready to begin the process:
If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.

Unless you set the device up for Wifi Sync, you will have to upgrade using iTunes. On the Summary page in iTunes, click the button Software Update.

HT4623 When we go to Settings General, we do not have an option for Software Update...only About and Usage.

Trying to update my LG G2, when I go to Settings, About, there is no option for Software Update..

I am trying to update my LG G2, when I go to Settings >> About >> there is no option for "Software Update" .. what else can I do?

4.4.2 was the last update. Now, in the same section look at Build Number. Mine says VS98026A. If yours ends with 26A, you are current. The last update was for HD Voice called Advanced Calling 1.0. Our next over the air or OTA update will be sometime next year, probably near March. The G2 is already getting 5.0 Lollipop in Poland and is rolling this way. We will get it, but even though Google has released the source code and update to manufacturers, Verizon still has to test, add to it and approve it, then roll it out over the course of a few weeks or months.

If your ipod is set for manual update, how do you add playlists?

If your ipod is set for manual update, how do you create and add playlists to the ipod?

Thanks! I have several ipod books and they told me about manually updating songs but not playlists. That tutorial is VERY helpful. I assume that if you manually update the playlist, all the songs contained in it would have had to been previously manually updated to the ipod....to say it another way, updating the playlist does not transfer any songs. Am I correct?

Change logs not working for manual update modify/delete statements.

Hi experts,
                 My requirement is to display the change logs for a few custom z tables.The log data changes is selected in technical settings of the table.When any changes are made to the table using sm30 the changes are logged.
My requirement also displays an alv grid which allows the users to edit/insert/delete   entries in the table.
In this case the change logs are not getting recorded(ie whenever the user manually updates or inserts a row into the table the change docs are not getting stored).
My code works like this,
Whenever the user chooses a custom table and selects the display change log button i transter the control of my abap program to the standard rsvtprot program(sap std. pgm to display change logs).
sample code:
elseif sscrfields-ucomm eq c_chgdoc.
    refresh:r_seltab.
    clear:r_seltab.
    r_seltab-sign   = 'I'.
    r_seltab-option = 'EQ'.
    r_seltab-low      = w_tab.
    append r_seltab.
Call the sap standard program rsvtprot via selection screen
by passing the table name and display grid parameters.
    submit rsvtprot via selection-screen
                      with cusobj   in r_seltab
                      with alv_grid eq c_x
                      and return.
Is there any way by which i can extend the change logs functionality for the changes made using the alv grid?
Please help me out.

Hi Anuraag,
In TM you should open the transaction /SCMTMS/ZONE. Here you select the zone you would like to modify and you execute the changes you would like to make.

Nico.

Connect to iTune and Check for Updates (tap to enlarge)

IPad and iTunes cannot check for iOS updates. And iTunes cannot restore the iPad to 6.1.2.

Hi.
I have iPad 4G 32GB A1460. NO JAILBREAK EVER. Recently I installed iOS 7 Beta 3 on it. And now when I go to Settings -> General -> Software Update I get the error message "Unable to Check for Update. An error occurred while checking for a software update." And that's all. No useful information actually.
I have tried to reboot the device but no luck. I have also tried to connect it to a PC and check for updates from iTunes. iTunes shows me a little different error message: "iTunes could not check for an update to the carrier settings for your iPad. An unknown error occurred (1651). Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later." I checked the connection just in case and was convinced that the Internet connection is active. Does anyone know what's happening? I really don't like this.
OK, maybe the next iOS version isn't out yet. But what will happen if it is? Will I be forced to use 7.0 Beta 3 forever? I don't want to))
Another thing that I've tried to do is to restore my iPad to iOS 6.1.2. But the iTunes shows another error: "The iPad "<iPad name>" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (3194)." I tried this on Windows and Mac. On Mac I have a different message: "This device isn't eligible for the requested build" which seems to be the same thing as 3194-error on Windows.
Can anyone help me? Is there a reasonable explanation of this? Is this related to Apple's developers web site unavailability (http://devimages.apple.com/maintenance/)?
Thanks in advance!

ITunes password fails for app updates

My itunes password works for new app downloads and on computer, but fails when I try to update all apps, have triple checked the password for all and it is the same, any ideas?

Hello,
I believe the reason for your problem is that the apps were originally bought by your husband(The app is registered with his account). He therefore needs to update them for you. Then if you sync your ipod you can get the most updated app. If it is a free app you could just download it using your own itunes account so you could update the app yourself.

I am struggling to download iOS 5 onto my iPad 2. There is no option for software update in settings.

I am struggling to download iOS5 onto my iPad 2 as there is no software update option in settings?

The option to update over the air is a new feature that appeared with iOS 5. If you do not already have iOS 5 on the iPad2, then you will need to plug it into iTunes on your computer and update it there first. After you've upgraded to iOS 5, you will then have the option to use over the air updates in the future.
