Update finally working - but how do I get the apps I bought on the phone??
Bought some apps from the appstore yesterday - but even though I FINALLY got my phone updated after 5 hrs of clicking, how the heck do I get the apps into the iPhone??
Here's what I did. After downloading attach your phone to your computer. You will notice a new tab ( just like you have for music, video etc) called applications when you select your iphone in the side menu of itunes. Check off the applications you want to try on your phone and sync. The first time I did this the applications did not work on my phone. I went back and removed them, did a sync, added them back and synced again. The second time was the charm and they seem to be working. Good luck.

I bought the remote/radio for it and I don't see the radio on the screen.I'm also not able to detect my micromemo device. Any help?
TIA,
MikeI could never get it off before with the eject, control E, or just about anything short of resetting, rebooting, or disconnecting the cable. When I first saw it, I thought "Oh no, I am locked up again" But now I ejected under Itunes instantaneously. I guess it was infamous in my own mind and with others that could not get the iPod to eject normally.

How do I get the new iPod to work with iTunes
I recently purchased a new iPod--I think it's the "Shuffle," whichever one retails for $150. When I plugged it into my iMac, it said I needed to install iTunes 10 to run it. When I checked for updates, it said that iTunes 9.xyz (whatever came after the 9) was the latest version.
How do I get this new iPod to work. As you can tell, I am not much of a gadget junkie, and I'm a bit of a technology incompetent, which is why I purchased the Mac to begin with. I have an iMac, have no idea what operating system I am using--whatever came with it when I purchased it in November, 2008.
TIA!Okay, I just looked and I do have 10.411. How do I upgrade to get the new iPod to work, and how much does the new operating system cost?

Will iPod Shuffle work on Lexus IS250/350 Standard Audio?
I own a '11 Lexus IS350. Will iPod Shuffle work on standard Lexus audio by plugging the device to USB port inside the center arm rest and control playback of tracks through Lexus audio unit? like PLAY, PAUSE, SKIP FORWARD / BACKWARD, etc etc etc? I know iPod Touch works, but how about iPod Shuffle? It doesn't have a lightning connector, instead it uses 3.5mm-to-USB cable supplied by Apple. How da heck is that gonna work is beyond me..
Thanks!
goodolcheezThis is pretty embarrassing that nobody owns iPod Shuffle to play it on their car sterero.... Is playing music with portable player in the car not popular any more? C'mon guys this is ridiculous...... let's get real please thanks.

How I got my iPod to FINALLY work
When my husband bought my iPod for me, he didn't purchase Applecare. But since I reported problems with it while it was still under warranty, I could still purchase Applecare. I really recommend doing this if you can. They (usually) service it for free.
To make a long story short, my computer (powermac G5) wasn't recognizing my ipod, so therefore I couldn't download anything on it...very frustrating.
So, I returned it to Applecare, and they sent me a new one, still didn't work. And we did this again, it still didn't work. UNTIL I was told to plug it into the back of the computer...it works.
For some reason, my iPod only works in the USB port in the back of my hard drive tower.
Hopefully, this will work for some of you..."For some reason, my iPod only works in the USB port in the back of my hard drive tower"
Although I'm not familiar with your particular computer, some USB ports are not connected directly to the computers motherboard, and those that are tend to work better with the iPod because of this.
This may be the reason why your iPod was instantly recognized when you changed ports. -
My iPod was working fine until I finally
My iPod was working fine until I finally decided to update the software. After i did this, it told me to update my firmware by plugging it in. I did, and then when I unplugged it later on, every song on my iPod was gone. A few days later, I plugged the iPod into my computer and all the songs magically came back on it, even the ones that were not backed up on the computer I plugged it into. It worked fine for a couple of days, but this morning when I tried to play a song, it kept lagging and would struggle, making some clicking sounds (not continuous ones like when a harddrive crashes, just occasional ones like it was having trouble reading), so I reset it. When I started up again, I got the sad iPod icon. I have since tried everything in every relevant support article I could find. I tried the 5 R's, and I also put it into disk mode (which it finally did, after much lagging), but still my computer would not recognize it, even after reinstalling iTunes.
Basically, what it comes down to, is I cannot restore it, because I cannot get my computer to recognize it. It has always worked fine on this computer -- in fact, I never had a single problem with my iPod until I tried to update the software. I guess I learned, 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' - but how can I ever get my iPod to work again? Please help me!Hi jaded99, Welcome to discussions, I trust you found the correct iPod forum if not here is a link. Bob :~))

When I try to restore my iPod, it stops restoring at the same place and doesn't work. How do I fix this and make it completely restore itself?
Did you make sure that your security software allows iTunes to contact Apple during the restore process? http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125

Through damage, loss and resetting computers, my iTunes has synced itself to 5 devices (which I believe is the max) but I currently have my 6th iPod touch and need to know how to keep all this music and put it onto this other iPod. Do I create another Apple ID? Is it possible?
You can have 10 devices associated with your iTunes account for iCloud purposes. See:
iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
You can have five computers authorized for one iTunes account. See:

My ipod classic has started making a mewling sound and all it does is scroll through the songs. It does not play on my Bose sound dock or through earbuds. It will play when connected to the computer...but that makes it hard to take it on a walk with me I thought it might be a synching problem so tried that--still doesn't work. How do I fix this problem with out restoring it to the factory setting? I do not want to lose all my music content as some of it I cannot replace easily. Please help with suggestions and advice. Thanks. Karen in GA
Have you recharge your iPod for at least 2 hours, preferably till the Full charge Battery symbol comes ON.?
