My friend asked me to load some of my music to his 1st generation ipod from my 4th generation ipod - do i need to have the older software to do this?
My friend asked me if I would help him out buy sharing my extensive music collection with him. He mailed me his ipod it is running version 3.1.3 (7E18) I believe it is an ipod 1st generation. I am running version 4.3.5 (8L1) on a 4th generation ipod. Am I going to have to download the older version for his ipod in order to have full access to it? Also, I connected his ipod to my computer and was able to access his music library (by opening a new account on computer); however, his apps are all over the place and I was attempting to organize them, but was unable to acces the apps. The apps appear to be locked. What gives?
You can only sync to one computer, unless it is set to manual. The easiest way is to have the music in his library at any rate.
If it is purchased music it is tied to your account and would need to be authorized to play on other computers, I wouldn't advise going that route.

reinstalled my windows operating system and decided to put on windows 8. After loading all of my music back into a freshly installed itunes, my 4th gen ipod is not recognized by itunes. My 1st gen ipod nano works with no problem. I can eliminate any problems with the cable and connection.
I've stopped and started the service, and also have performed cold reboots.
Nothing seems to have helped the situation.
Help!See:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
Have you tried on another computer to help determine if you have a computer or iPod problem?
The iPod Classic uses different drivers than the Nano -
I plug in my iPod to charge from my computer and it syncs with my iTunes, but I've been getting a message that a list of 13 of my apps cannot be loaded onto my iPod because it doesn't have the latest software to support them. I have done all the software updates for my iPod and iTunes says it is completed up-to-date. Do I need to delete the apps and redownload them or what?
Any help is appreciated! Thanks.ok well like lllaass said, most apps require 4.3 or later iOS software. chances are since the apps worked before, the apps themselves got updated and will no longer work with your software version.

I've installed Flip4Mac WMV in Lion and when I try to listen to audio in some sites, it starts playing and after about 0.5 seconds it starts playing again. So, I have the same thing playing with a delay... What is happening and how to fix it? Is there any other way to play theese kinds of files without using Flip4Mac WMV?
Use Flash Media Server to stream the files.......set up a timer and have all three of them play at once....and have a button switch the streams depending upon which stream you want to play.....and wallah......
you can also capture the stream.time from the video playing and resume from that point on the other videos as well....havent done this theoretically so I dont know how smooth the transistion between streams will be....but it can be done....
plus u may have to use double buffering techniques to make sure it starts up right away......

Can match identify my vinyl imported albums in I tunes. Also for it to work will I need to load all the album details. Obviously the iTunes Store needs to have the albums on line
Yes. Matching Songs in Vinyl Albums is possible, usually though with a success rate of 20 - 40%.
Even with great care taken to improve the quality of the recording, the outcome is mixed.

For some reason my Quicktime will not play a mpg file. It says that my computer does't have the proper codec to support the file.

Some of my music was purchased with an old email address (old account) which is no longer valid. Since it has been a long time since we used the email address we no longer know the password. Now I can't access the music from my old account due to using a new computer. I've purchased the music and downloaded cds with the old account and need to be able to get my music.
Thank you!!➡ https://iforgot.apple.com/

How do I transfer purchased and non-purchased songs (loaded from personal cds) from my Ipod Nano (4th generation) to my Itunes library?
iTunes only allows you to transfer music purchased from iTunes because of copyright laws. You would need to search the internet for a 3rd party app that allows you to transfer the non-purchased music or get them from the original source, i.e. CD, other music site, etc.

If I follow a link from an e-mail, I can no longer just close that tab to return to my e-mails, only exit, where I have to login again.
Surely this is wrong!Where are you looking for close Tab?
You can middle click a tab to close the tab or right click a tab. If you want to do that via the File menu then you need to use the keyboard (Alt+F) to open the File menu because some menu entries are hidden in Firefox 4 if you use the mouse.
Set the pref browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab to false on the about:config page to prevent closing the last tab from closing that window.
To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br /> -
I've downloaded Itunes music for nearly 10 years on multiple computers, however, I've noticed that I can't access previously purchased music from some of the older computers. Can all of my Itunes purchases be consolidated?
Hello, ted_marx38.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
The most common cause for this issue would be media present that is purchased with another Apple ID. When prompted to authorize the computer it may show a different Apple ID. If this is the case, the computer will need to be authorized for this Apple ID. The article below will walk you through the process of verifying if that is the case or correcting the issue if not.
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases

I want to update this iPod without losing all of my friends music and apps. What should I do?
To update
iTunes 10 for Windows: Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. That requires a Mac with OSX 10.5.8 or later. With 1OSX 10.4.11 you can only go to iTunes 9.X which gets you as high as iOS 4.1
A 3G to 5.1.1 Requires iTunes version 10.5 or later
A 4G to 6 Requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. That requires a Mac with OSX 10.6.8 or later
Identifying iPod models
Since you are stuck at 4.2.1 you may have a 2G iPod.
iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318. -
I just installed Firefox last night and the home page is in a foreign language. I cannot use it to navigate, as I cannot read the language.
You can try to delete search.sqlite and search.json in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]
You can also try to reset the defaults:
# Left-click the search engines icon on the search bar
# Open "Manage Search Engines"
# Click "Restore Defaults"

Why don't I see a pop-up menu after I plug in my ipod ? I see only my play list. My Ipod is completely empty. I'm trying to reloaded it with added xmas music. Thank You !
Hello Ronald,
I would be concerned too if my iPod was not recognized by iTunes. I found a couple of articles that might help with this.
If you don't see your iPod in the My Computer section of Windows, follow the steps in this article:
iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1369
If Windows recognizes your iPod but iTunes does not, follow the steps in this article:

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

Please help me with this!?
That is what you get when you pirate music.
You are probably going to have reset your iPhone to factory default which wipe out evrything. After that restore from the backup on your computer.

does anyone know how to fix this? it's driving me insane idk what to do!!!
It hasn't been working for three days now, and i really need it to!
I also tried taking off my iMessage but nothing changed.
HELP!!My mistake, I read your post too quickly. I thought you said that you were both getting the same messsages. Is your friend not getting just your messages or does she not get anyone's messages? If she's not getting just your messages you might want to try deleting her contact on your phone and creating it again. Sometimes that will clear things up. Also, obviously the contact must match the number she receives messages at.
