Use iTunes. It is designed to sync a Nano and other Apple devices.

My passcode was entered wrong too many times now i have a configue iphone screen and my laptop does not recognise my iphone ... do i have to reconfigure it?

Please help i don't want to lose all my info and pics from the last week for the 4th time.

If the computer does not recognize it and you've forgotten the passcode, there is no other option.
If you've been using the device as designed and syncing regularly, only the data since the last backup will be lost.

Someone tell my why itunes is not uploading on my computer when i have reinstalled it many times and still doesnt work

i have reinstalled itunes on my labtop 12 times and still gives me the same message that it wasnt installed correctly when i did it all correctly someone tell me why it isn't working propertly?

Doublechecking, Jensen. What's the precise text of your error message, please? (There's a few different ones I can think of that you might be getting.)

Error while syncing can not be erased and have gone to all articles and nothing has worked. Have tried to erase my data in the sync file and that can not be done - it says try again another time. What now?

Have gone into my snyc data file to erase all data - error says that it can not be done at this time. I still have the error while syncing on my bar. Have tried to get a new sync number and that will not change - it goes back to the original how can I start over and try again?

This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

Hi, recently my Photoshop had stopped working. Whenever I try to run it says that it has found and error and something about Microsoft Visual C not working. I have done everything i could and nothing has worked thus far. I am working on a Windows 7 desk

I have tried many other things and I cannot directly contact Adobe.
Ignore the Dog photo.

SOLUTION - Photoshop CS5 Runtime Error, R6025, runtime c++
CS5 Design Premium Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Error
These are the forum topics that I used. It did include restoring preferences and running the Adobe CS5 cleaning program thing.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled PS as well.
What kind of CC cleaner tools do you recommend?

I restored my ipad today and i put in the passcode and now it is not letting me in and keeps disabling itself. i have reset it twice already and nothing has worked.

i have been trying to unlock my ipad for over an hour.i restored it today and have been putting in the passcode and it won't let me in. the passcode is right.

TRY FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. If you did not do step 4 properly, start all over again.

I have a 16GB iPhone 3GS. Tried synching my phone through iTunes (11.0.1 I think... on a 2009 Macbook Pro). Now when I connect to iTunes, it says it does not recognise the content on my phone. Is this because my phone (and laptop) are too old?

Also, when I tried to Restore the settings, an Error Message pops up that says " The iPhone software update server could not be contacted. The requested resource was not found.
I'm trying to free up space on my phone by removing [literally] thousands of old photos which were originally synched to the phone, because I had forgotten to uncheck the photos button when I synched it ages ago.
I have also tried synching it on my 24" iMac (running OSX Snow Leopard). But again, when I try restoring the phone through itunes, it says the file is corrupted. It sggests unplugging the device, and then plugging it in again. I have done this numerous times with no success.
I'm guessing it must be because my phone (and versions of iTunes, and OSX) are all too old.
Please can anybody help.
Cheers,
Dan_nz.

My windows 7 machine does not recognise .swf files. I have down loaded the flash player but I think.

My windows 7 machine does not recognise .swf files. I have down loaded the flash player but I think but it is linked as a plug in with chrome and IE. How can I get my windows to recognise the .swf files to play them.

The downloaded file is the projector, not an installer; you need to make the file association manually:
move the downloaded exe file to a location you can remember, e.g. C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
right-click on a swf file and select Open with > Choose default program
navigate to the folder you saved the player and select flashplayer_13_sa.exe

Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
