ITunes U and PDFs synchronization with iPod

I have in iTunes U same Collection of Audiofiles and PDF-Files. The Audio-Files will synchronized with my iPod and will be visible in the synchronization of my iPod as collection, but the PDF-Collection will not be synchronized with the ipod and are not visible in the synchronization-configuration. How can I synchronize the PDF-collection in iTunes U with my ipod.
iPod touch 32 GB Version 3.1.2

Unfortunately, iPods and iPhones don't currently support syncing PDFs from iTunes U.
However, one possible solution could be to install one of the various iPod touch apps that can sync files to the iPod. You could then manually copy the PDFs from the iTunes Media folder into that app, which should allow you to read them on the iPod.

  • How do I transfer my MacBook Air to my wife so she can sync her iTunes account and other settings with her iPad Mini?

    How do I transfer my MacBook Air to my wife so she can sync her iTunes account and other settings with her iPad Mini?

    You can change the account shortname to whatever you wish to use.
    As you can see from my example above. Once you click on the Create User button a new account will be created.
    She will need to get her own Apple ID setup so when she starts with iTunes she can open her own iTunes account unless you both want to share the use of the same Apple ID. This can create a bit of confusion if you have your own iPads or iPhones or iPods. As you have discovered it's pretty much one iDevice with one Apple ID.
    As for the iTunes library that becomes a more complicated issue.

    Download them to the computer to which the iPod is synced, re-sync.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list, or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
    Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
    Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
    You can re-download your available previous purchases.

  • Itunes playlist does not match with ipod playlist.

    itunes library does not match with ipod playlist.
    when I copy all my songs from itunes library to ipod playlist always a couple songs are missing. I have 5.000 songs in library but only 4700 on ipod.
    please help. thank you

    I'm not certain I understand the problem: have you re-installed iTunes 6 and now are unable to purchase iTunes Store music?
    I have an iPod Mini and have used it flawlessly with iTunes 7 on both a G5 iMac and a G4 Cube under 10.4.7, so "incompatibility" is not the issue here.
    iTunes 6.0.5 indeed does continue to allow iTunes Store music purchases...if your problem persists, get back to us here with more info!

  • HT2105 When you get a apple receipt for itunes songs and you paid with a itunes gift card do they charge you or give you store credit what's store credit is it good or bad or does it charge you if you have a free account with no credit cards at all is it

    When you get a apple receipt for itunes songs and you paid with a itunes gift card do they charge you or give you store credit what's store credit is it good or bad or does it charge you if you have a free account with no credit cards at all is it bad?

    iTunes credits are, for example, if you download a song from the store and it's found to be corrupt - if the track can't be fixed then iTunes support will tend to give you a song credit for a free download.
    When you purchase music from the store then any credits that you have will be used first, then any balance that you have (e.g. from iTunes gift cards or allowances), and any remaining amount will be taken from your credit card.

    You have posted to the iTunes Match forum, which your question is not related to. I suggest you contact the web site from whom you wish to purchase the subscription.

    After doing the IOS 7.1.1 update on my iPad 4 the screen just shows the iTunes icon and a cable with an arrow. I can't get the device to open. Can someone help me with this issue? Thanks!!

    Yes. The phone will be back to default settings.

    My husband wiped out the library on his itunes account and replaced it with mine.  Any ideas on how to get it back?  Our laptop does not have his library either.  only mine. 

    How exactly did this happen? Were you using separate iTunes libraries on separate user accounts on the laptop?

  • HT201412 it shows itunes logo and usb cable with arrow after that it switch off itself

    iPAD shows itunes logo and usb cable with arrow after that it switch off itself

    If the Restore doesn't work, force your iPad into Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

  • I recently had to get a new harddrive for my computer and lost my itunes. But i have a ipod touch and was wondering if i just download itunes again and sync it with my ipod would all my song and apps be transfered over?

    I need to know if i just downloaded itunes to my new computer and synced it with my ipod touch if all me songs would transfer over?

    No, they won't transfer over, however, there are third party PC/Mac programs which will transfer the content of your iPod to your computer. Just do a Google search on this topic and you will find them (e.g. senuti)

  • ITunes U and Playlist option in iPod Nano

    This is another question about my iPod nano, I was try to solved my Audiobooks problem (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2361715&tstart=15) by change Media Kind into iTunes U. And the happy news is, I can browse my Audiobooks collection in each books/album on iTunes U. But new problem has come. The problem I got is, I can't continues play my entire books. Example, if I have books A with 5 tracks, when I choose play track 1, after track 1 completed, iTunes U doesn't go to next track (Track 2) but iTunes U play again Track 1. This is weird problem that I got. Can anybody show me how to fix it? to make my iPod Nano play to the next track.
    Any feedback are appreciated

  • Help please - itunes library empty after sync with iPod

    Please help if you can.
    Plugged in iPod to charge, iTunes opened and said ipod associated with another library. I obviously took the wrong option as now all my music has gone, play lists, purchased music included. Music store still has correct account no though. Everything is on my ipod but nowhere else. If you know how I can get it back, I would be most grateful.

    There is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward.

  • I got a first generation IPOD TOUCH for my husband and want to take some songs From my Computer that is hooked up to MY newer IPOD (not Touch, just IPOD)  Is it possible to take the music from my ITUNES account and add the his IPOD Touch without changing

    I am trying to take songs from my PC AND My Itunes account and send them to my husband's IPOD TOUCH First Generation BUT I don't want to change my whole ITUNES account that is already on my computer.  When I plug HIS Ipod Touch into the PC, my ITUNES account wants me to CHANGE the DEVICE Name on the account and I don't want to do that.  I only want to share SOME of my songs on my Itunes account and send them to h is IPOD TOUCH?  Is this possible and HOW!  Thanks a ton!!!  I "checked" off the songs that I want to send but that's as far as I get before it asks me to change the Device Name?

    Is his iPod usually synced to a different iTunes library/computer?  If so, that would explain the message iTunes is giving you.  An iPod is designed to sync with only one computer/iTunes library at a time.  If you try to sync it with a new library, the iPod's contents will be erased and replaced with what is in the newer/different iTunes library.
    So if there is content you would like to add to his iPod, simply transfer it from your iTunes library to his.

  • Updated iTunes software & ITunes Updater and now cannot sync iPod

    I was requested to update my iTunes software and install the iTunes updater, which I accomplished. Now when I go to sync up my iPod I get the following error message "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to be closed, We are sorry for the inconvenience" It will not allow iTunes to remain open or sync with my iPod. It didn't happen prior to installing the updater. Any suggestions? Thanks

    Hard to believe an update did this!! I had the exact problem-updated my iPod & iTunes software & iTunes was crashing whenever I hooked up the iPod-"unclicking" all of my purchased music did the trick! THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH FOR THAT TIP-I'M SURE I WOULD'VE STILL BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM!!
    Wish I hadn't restored factory settings first since I would have at least still had my piles of PURCHASED music on the iPod-I accidentally had ONE purchased song checked off to update the iPod & it crashed all over again-glad it was easy enough to figure out which song wasn't from my cd collection that I uploaded! Does anyone have any idea how this will be handled? It seems that money should be refunded for buying these songs for Apple products that, upon the company's instructions to upgrade, can no longer be played on the hardware they're specifically designed for! Or at least they're hopefully coming up with a new upgrade to solve the problem! Very irritating situation!

  • Keynote and iCloud - sync with iPod

    I am using Lion and I have a problem when I begin a document in mac I can upload to icloud fine - the ipod sees it fine. The problem is when ipod closes and updates and I go to icloud to download I don't know where it goes and I don't see any changes in the original document.
    If I start with ipod and upload to icloud fine - download to mac - I see it.  I work on it and I upload when finished.  It goes up and the ipod sees it and tries to bring it in but does not recognize it as same document and saves it with a "1" after the name.
    Please advise how to get this to work properly.
    I do not have iworks 09 I only have keynote latest version for both ipod and mac

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It sounds as though you have a conflict of versions, I had a similar occurence, it took some sorting out.
    Try this:
    Remove the most up to date versions of your documents either by downloading from iCloud.com or by saving to iTunes on the iOS device. Turn off document and data syncing on all devices, turn it back on and change the name of your documents before re-adding them.
