Listening from iPod mini while connected

My computer speakers are broken so I was wondering how to listen to the music from my iPod mini while its connected to my computer and I'm doing stuff in iTunes. I can't find an option in iTunes and I've tried plugging the headphones straight into my computer but no luck. any ideas?

You will need to set the iPod to manually update your music. Then you will be able to listen to your iPod when it's hooked up to your computer.
If you're running iTunes 7.0 just follow these directions.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iTunesWin/7.0/en/2580.html
You'll then be able to browse and listen to your music on the iPod like you would if it was on your computer.

ITunes 10.0.1crashes when iPod mini is connected

iTunes 10 crashes every time my iPod mini is connected. Is this Apple's way of making me buy a new one?
Can I downgrade to a workable version? I don't care about Ping or any of the new features in v10.

Fixed it. Plugged the iPod mini into an old laptop, iTunes didn't crash and I was able to uncheck the box that automatically syncs the iPod. That was not possible with the other computer because iTunes crashed before I was able to uncheck that setting. Turns out there are 2 places that control syncing- iTunes prefs and the iPod's own settings.

Hi. I have an ipod 7th Gen. Whenever i rate a song from ipod, when i connect my ipod to my pc i see that another different song is rated on itunes. Can you help me with it? or what causes this problem?

Hi Becki ..
You need to "authorize" the Mac.
Launch iTunes on the Mac then from the iTunes menu bar top of your screen click Store > Authorize This Computer.
Now, using the same Apple ID as you used to purchased iTunes media originally, you should be able to sync all your content.

Can I use AC charger from ipod mini on new nano???

My son had an ipod mini. He had bought an AC charger for it. I am buying him an ipod nano for his birthday (ipod mini went bad...). Can he use the charger from the mini to the nano???

Maybe, depends on the charger. It would appear that while older iPods only needed the power pins, newer ones may require the data pins to also be active for charging. Some chargers do not connect the data pins at all.
But it won't damage the Nano. It will either work fine or do nothing at all.
Which charger is it?

Listening to iPod nano while recharging?

Hi everyone.
I have my iPod nano connected to a set of speakers in my office.
When I need to recharge it, I connect it via the USB port to my PC (no iTunes installed) in my office.
My question is:
if the iPod is playing music while connected to the USB port for recharging, will it use power from the battery?
thanks

there are many car stereo places that can hook your ipod up to your present car stereo. Then all you have to do is plug it in. Not sure of the price, got mine done here in Mexico for less then 30 dollars U.S. and love it now. Just had it done two days ago. Great, no more tape or fm for me.

MY ipod mini dosnt connect to my computer

Hello unlike many of you unfortunate folks whose ipods do not connect because of itunes 6.0, mine is unlike that. My ipod is not recognized by my computer. It is not because of itunes 6.0 because this was going on before i updated. i thought that maybe if i updated it might work but....no. i know my usb is fine because i can update my brothers ipod on the same computer and the same cable so if anyone can help me that would be superb.

Hello Paul,
Thank you for your kind word, I totally agree that Mark is a knowledgeable guy but def. not me. I am just a guy enjoy to repairing the iPods and share my experience with people who have the problems.
Make the long story short, I do not know the reason cause but I discover the following points:-
1. iPod will be free from problem if it only got charged by the AC charger instead of the computer.
2. Problems always happen just after the installation of the latest iPod updater or connecting with the computer, particular PC.
3. Some iPods not able to be charged from the USB port of a PC - it happens to most of the PDA cases as well. The unstable of power supply from the USB port always the reason to screw the iPod.
4. After the installation of the iPod updater, some iPods need to be plugged with an AC Charger to finish the installation process. And lot of case got stuck at this stage.
5. iPod is like an external HD, when you put it Disk Mode, you got better chance to get your iPod mount with the computer, in order for you to do the Restore.
6. Reset does help on most cases
7. If reset does not work then you must do a Restore
8. Some iPods may need to do a Format (Disk Utility or 3rd party software) instead of purely doing a Restore.
9. If your iPod is formatted in a PC, and cant recognized by your PC, it is better chance to solve it by connectting it with a Mac and vince verse
10. Use Firewire instead of USB
Stay away from connecting your iPod with a PC unless you need to do the update of iPod software

Moving iTunes Library from iPod mini to new computer (old hard drive dead)

Hi all, I own a 2nd gen (I believe) iPod mini with all of my music from my iTunes library on it. Last weekend, my computer began freezing/crashing while loading my desktop, and a diagnostic confirmed that the read/write head on my hard drive was bad. I don't currently have the spare cash to send it away to a recovery lab, so I am starting from scratch with a new computer I will be ordering today.
My question is this--is it going to be possible to transfer the music from my iPod to my new computer? Many of the songs on my iPod are from other sources, during the years that I was not using iTunes, and from what I have read I will only be able to transfer my purchased music. I know there is a way to make my iPod into a hard drive in order to transfer the music to my new computer, but as I said, I cannot even boot up my old machine, and thus cannot access my iTunes library on my HD.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions and advice you may have.

I've had to do this in the past (4 years ago). Try this page for a list of programs that can help you:

Transfer music from iPod mini to iPod with video

I'm going to be spending a few nights at my friend's house and they plan on giving me their iPod with video. I currently have the iPod mini and I was just wondering if there's a way (in Windows XP) if I can get my music and playlists from my iPod mini to my new iPod with video at my friend's house so I don't have to wait until i can go home and connect it to my PC.

Actually Problem solved!
if anyone wants to know the steps here they are
*make sure your iPod is enabled for hard disk use*
-on your PC, export the library and any playlists to a flash drive or CD (in this case, I'm using a flash drive)
-create a new user account in Windows
-open and setup iTunes
-connect the iPod that has the music you want
-go to FILE then IMPORT, and select all your playlist text files along with your library xml file and import
-when done, connect your NEW iPod and format it
-then sync the music and there you go! all your songs on a new iPod when you don't have access to your PC!

Playing Tracks from iPod Mini throught iTunes

I have an iPod nano and when i connect it to my laptop i can play music from my iPod through iTunes. However, My Father has an iPod mini and he cant play music from his iPod through iTunes when it is connected to his PC. The Tracks are faded out on the screen and u cant click on them to play them. There is also a strange lock symbol beside the Memory status bar on the bottom of the screen. Has anyone ever seen this before or know what to do if if does appear???
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Cheers Gavin.

You have to place the iPod in Manual Music Transfer in order to play music on the Ipod through the PC.

I've never had my ipod die while connected to the charger

I've been having problems with my iPod since I've updated it to iOS 8. My battery isn't charging and it's actually died on me three times WHILE connected to the charger. My apps also keep crashing. It's beyond frustrating.
Is there any way I can fix my problem about it not charging?
(i don't have a computer to plug it into so that's a solution that will not work)

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable. The cable for 5G iPod (lightning connector) seems to be more prone to failure than the older cable.
- If a 5G iPod
Iphone 5 lightning port charging problem - SOLUTION!
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
For app crashing first restore from iClould backup and next restore to factory settings/new iPod via wifi
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

Is there a way of moving music from iPod Mini to computer?

Hi, I've got heaps of tracks on my iPod Mini, that I don't seem to have in my iTunes Library...
Is there a way to transferring these tracks back onto my computer?
Thanks!

You cannot do it using iTunes (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store). However, if you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get links for third-party methods and utilities that can transfer song files from iPod to computer.
NOTE: Songs previously purchased from the iTunes Store can also be re-downloaded on the Purchased screen at no cost.

Hi Hill,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Some reading material for you from Apple:
1. iTunes: Moving your iTunes Music folder
2. Just plug your nano into your Laptop after you have moved everything across from your PC.

Operate iPod itself while connected to Alpine

I've got my iPod connected through the special cable to an Alpine CDA-9856. It's been working and sounding perfectly. The only problem we have (my copilot is usually who changes music) is that you can't move around and search the iPod through the Alpine, as freely as you can in the iPod itself. When connected, the iPod can only be operated through the Alpine, so when we want to find something specific, we have to disconnect the iPod, search and only when found, reconnect again. This is tedious and not good for the connection. Manual doesn't say anything about it, so I ask here if any of you with an Alpine, has found a way to operate the iPod itself, while being connected to the Alpine. Thanks.

No, there's no support email, forum or anything other than phone and I'm not in the US now. There's got to be something to allow it though, that isn't in the manual.

Sharing from ipod mini to ipod on windows

Any speedy way of transferring some of my music from the mini into the regular ipod. Not all of it is still in my libraray. Can I get it out of my IPOD music into hers? Please advise.

After you downloaded itunessetup.exe, did you physically open that file to run the install? If you did, then I recommend uninstalling itunes by going to your start menu, then control panel, then add/remove programs, and selecting itunes AND quicktime. Don't worry about losing your music as it is stored on your hard drive and will not be affected. After that, go to www.apple.com/itunes/download and download itunes. When you click on the link that says "download itunes 7.0.2- Free" it will ask you if you want to run or save this file. You want to save it. After it has finished downloading, it might ask you if you want to run the file you just downloaded. then you can click run, which will start the installer! Hope this helps!
