Multiple Computers, not updating copied cds

I have been updating my Ipod from two computers. I am now back to my "main" one. I have been adding new cds to my Itunes (not downloaded, but copied from CD) and they are not showing up on my Ipod. I already have my Ipod set on the "manually manage" setting. I don't know what to do about this. I mess with taking it off manual and it says it's going to replace everything with what's on this computer. I have stuff copied from the other computer! Am I going to lose stuff? Luckily, everything on the other computer was "purchased" music so I synced my purchased music with this computer, but I am trying to figure out the best course of action in case I have forgotten about something that was copied from the other computer.
Thanks for any help.

With manual transfer you have to drag an drop songs onto the iPod, but you're not saying what happens when you do this. Does iTunes show a transfer of songs is taking place and then no songs show on the iPod?
If so, this Apple knowledge-base article may help address that issue.
Strange iPod behaviour.
If you were to change to automatic transfer, the contents of the iPod would be erased, and replaced by the contents of the iTunes library it is connected to.

  • Using my ipod with multiple computers: not the usual problem I think

    I've searched the forum and various help documents but I couldn't find the answer to this.
    I have a laptop at the office (work-related, so I don't have any of my music on it, just itunes) and my computer at home. Ideally I'd like to:
    = keep my ipod automatically synced to my home computer
    = be able to connect my ipod to my work laptop and play the music stored on it through itunes there, and also keep it charged and ready for the trip home.
    It seems that the 'manually manage music and videos' setting travels with the ipod, rather than being stored on the computer's itunes installation. If I set it at work, so I can play music there, when I connect the ipod at home I have to reset it (and a few times when I did so the ipod started deleting everything because 'sync my music' was not checked, grrr).
    I just want to set things up in a way so that when I connect my ipod at work it will let me play whatever songs I have there (without wanting to sync anything), and when I connect it at home it will automatically update it. It's simple enough, but I can't seem to figure out how to do it.
    If I connect the ipod at work and press 'cancel' when the 'do you want to erase things' pops up, it doesn't try to change the settings, but at the same time it doesn't let me play music at all, everything is greyed out
    does anybody have any idea? I don't want to resort to have to buy a usb power adapter just so that I can play my ipod at work without draining the battery...

    Could it be because its an iPhone and not a true iPod???
    i doubt it.
    actually, syncing an iPod Touch (or iPhone) with multiple computers is not recommended @ all. click here to find out what Apple has to say about it.
    all i can think of, i you really must do that, is this:
    to prevent a sync when plugging in the iPod - hold down the option and the command ( on a PC that would be the shift and ctrl ) keys when plugging in the ipod - keep pressing the keys until the iPod is listed under the devices list in iTunes. now you should be able to do what you want.
    however, you do so @ your own peril, as the article above outlined.
    alternatively, consider a setup such as this.
    good luck !

  • Finder not updating copied files

    When I copy a file to a different folder, Finder does not show it. If I try to recopy, it says the file already exists there.
    Thanks in advance.

    Yeah seem to be having the same problem with Finder updating as well.
    I deleted a few of the files in my download folder and all the files disappeared. Yet only the properly deleted files appeared in the Trash. I browsed back to the dowload folder and one thing had reappeared, then all the others suddenly appeared out of nowhere while I was looking at the folder.
    Very strange.

  • Director 12, multiple computers not allowed

    So, I have a desktop and a laptop for travel for work-on-the-road. Apparently, Director 12 will not allow me to install a copy on both computers sharing the same install ID number. (It asks me to de-activate the desktop when I install on to the laptop).
    Is this correct? I used to be able to install on both machines.

    I need to do the same, is this not allowed in D12?

  • Send a message to multiple computers(Not users) from win7/xp command/or scirpt

    Hi Team, is there a way to send a message to multiple windows xp/win7 computers from my win7/xp? 3rd party software,commercial or free, command line,batch or script all welcome. I have a few hundreds of computers, ping-them alive,but I don't know their
    location and user name. I was failed  to push SCCM client to them,some could be in work group or admin$ disabled. so I plan to send a message like " please contact IT department for your pc maintenance by this Friday or this PC will be deleted from
    the corp domain", when the user contact IT, we can RDP or manual install SCCM onsite with user cooperation. The msg.exe can only send to user,instead of computer names. I tried shutdown /m \\pc-name -f -s -t 1200000 "testMessage" but I got alert
    of access denied. though it works if put my local PC name. is there any other way to accomplish this? Many thanks!
    Thanks and best regards, -- KF

    Hi,
    Base on my experience, personally I think solve this case the better method is through your help desk collect the new computer information because consider this: “some
    could be in work group or admin$ disabled”, if there have more workgroup PC, it will always hardly to manage them though a purely technical method.
    About the domain computer, you can refer the following thread I replayed solution, notice a message to users to connect IT department.

  • Backing up my iphone - onto new computer - so I lose all songs I did not purchase on itunes? If I copied CDs into itunes on an old computer that I don't have access to anymore and I upgrade my software to 5.0 I lose anything not on the new computer itune?

    So my home computer decided to quit... I am trying to start using my work computer more now. I have itunes with a library of only 150 songs. My iphone has over 550 songs. Even after I sync my phone to my new computer and mark items purchased to be sync it doesn't increase on itunes. I know I've purchased songs on my iphone so that is my first problem...
    Next, at home I copied CDs onto itunes which I sync'd onto my iphone. Am I right that I will lose all these songs now when I update my software?
    To summarize:
    I have no way to back up songs that were not purchased on itunes?
    How do I sync my iphone purchases into itunes correctly (since it isn't working now)
    Will I lose content from my iphone, if it doesn't show up on itunes before I update my software to 5.0?
    Am I making sense?

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Since your updating from iOS 4 to iOS 6, you will most likely lose your songs, but if songs were purchased from iTunes, you can try this:
    Downloading past purchases from App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    You can redownload from iTunes on your iTouch, if running iOS 5 or better.

  • How do I have catalog on an external drive and update tags from multiple computers?

    I have catalog on an external drive but the tags are on the computer. Is there any way that tags can be placed on the external drive so that other computers can access and update?

    In case its just the tags that you want to have in one catalog that is easy.From multiple computers save the tags to the xml file.Copy the xml file to the external drive where the catalog resides.From there you can import the tags into the catalog.
    Command for exporting tags ->Save tags to file in the tags panel of the application

We currently have a subscription that allows the programs on two computers, but now I need 5 computers to be updated with CC.

    Hi,
    I presume that the new configuration is missing some parts as you seem to have the IP address of the external interface configured staticly on the interface but you have not configured any default route on the firewall? (Original configuration got default route dynamically and added it to the routing table)
    You also mentioned that you were able to connect to the Internet which would indicate there was indeed a default route with the new configuration?
    I am a bit confused about the host mask on the external interface (/32 - 255.255.255.255) ? Does the ASA really let you configure a host address on the interface? It can't lead anywhere as there is no next hop with a host mask. I think the ASA even blocks using a /31 mask link network which works with Cisco Routers.
    I guess I would go through the basic troubleshooting step when the new configuration is in use
    Check logs for any blocked connections or error messages
    Check the Static PAT (Port Forward) configuration with the "packet-tracer" command
    Capture traffic on the ASAs external interface (with the ASA itself) and confirm that you are seeing the TCP SYN of any connection attempts, or perhaps capture ICMP

  • Why can I copy music to my iPad or iPod touch from multiple computers but from only one computer using my iPhone?

    Why can I copy music to my iPad or iPod touch from multiple computers but from only one computer using my iPhone?
    IPads and iPod Touches don't seem to have the same media copying restriction that my iPhone has. My main computer is at home. I have music at home and at work and sometimes I like to add it to my iPhone from work. I can do this no problem using my iPad or my iPod touch, but when it comes to my iPhone, I can only copy music to it from my main computer.
    Why would the iPhone have this restriction but not the other two devices?
    ps. Where's my "add currently playing song to playlist" button? I can't even find a third-party music app with this feature.

    Because...!
    I've no idea why either.
    Although it isn't normally possible to sync an iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers (or manually manage an iPhone from more than one) it can be achieved if all computers have copies of the self same library. See Re: how do i sync on a second laptop without the data on my iPhone 5 being erased?

  • I have multiple computers and iPhones and now iTunes will not allow my wife to load applications or use her own iTunes playlists.  How can I setup each device for each user correctly?

    We have multiple computers and iPhone devices which I have passed on to other family members, such as my wife.  Now she is not able to load apps to her devices, eventhough it appear she is logged into her own iTunes account.  How can I setup iTunes correctly on each device?  Currently, there is one PC and one Mac laptop and we each have iPhones, with one other family member not able to use his 'passed-down' device for iTunes, also.

    Hello dal1820
    Check out the article below on how to use multiple devices with one computer. The main idea that I want to point out is to have different users for each person as it is the easy way to make sure that no issue happen when syncing.

  • My i pad is not responding. I have a security copy in my iTunes. But my iTunes is not updated

    My i pad is not responding. I have a security copy in my iTunes. But my iTunes is not updated. Will i lose my Security copy?

    I have an iPad 1 as well that I updated when the iOS was first released a few weeks ago and I think that the new update really sparked my iPad into "new life" again. It's so hard to tell what will happen when you update - ideally the performance of the device should improve - and not fall off.
    Have you tried closing any/all open/running apps in the recents tray? Close them all and restart - see what happens.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Update copied to multiple documents

    Hi
    We have a requirement to update a property or value within a document such as expiry date and for this update to automatically copied to multiple documents on different sites and libraries.
    We need to edit a 'master copy' and have this change copied to all other documents based on the 'master copy'. We would appreciate any suggestions. We are thinking of using workflow rules and the update list item action but are unsure if there is better
    options.
    Would we possibly be able to use the document information panel and have the update copied to other documents based on a template?
    Thanks very much
    Tony

    Hi
    Just to let you know, I am considering using a Slist and a custom document information panel.
    The data will be changed in the list and then using a data connection within the document information panel, be copied to the quick parts within the word document.
    The word document will reside on a different site and library and when opened will receive data from the list (master copy), the data will then be copied to the quick parts within the document.
    Does anyone foresee any issues with this approach?
    I would like to refresh the document automatically without reopening the document. Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks very much
