My friend gave me her Ipod and when I try and load music to it from my Itunes it says I don't have the privilege to do so. What do I do?

Help please??

When someone complains that their music upload stalls I immediately think of three problems:
1) corrupt song(s)
2) bad cable
3) bad hard drive
The list is actually in reverse order of my expectations. Since you were able to format the drive it obviously hasn't suffered a hard crash but there might be a very large number of bad sectors. Go here to see how to put the iPod into diagnostic mode so you can further check the drive.
If the drive passes muster borrow another cable. And finally, create a playlist and verify that each song is good by playing it. See if it will sync. If it does, add more songs (verified good). Keep repeating.

When I try to put Firefox in my applications folder a message says I don't have sufficient "privileges" to do certain things.

I have a MacBook operation system 10.5.8. I have been using Safari and wanted to upgrade to the Firefox 6 version. I do have an older version of Firefox in my applications folder which I agreed to "replace" when queried. But when I tried to put the version 6 to replace the older version, that's when I get the message about not having sufficient privileges to do that. Please help. Thanks.

It is better to download a new copy of the Firefox program from:
http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean reinstall.
Install the new version that you have downloaded.
(your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose bookmarks or other personal data).
thank you

When I try to sync my iPod to iTunes it says I don't have access privilege

I bought some songs on my iTouch, but when I try to sync them to my computer it says I don't have access privileges to do so, but it only works when it try to sync apps, what do I do?

Did you try authorizeing your iTouch on iTunes under the store tab?

Why when I plug in my iPod does it say I don't have the privilege to makes changes?

I plugged in my iPod to my computer a couple of days ago at night to sync new music and in the morning when I unplugged it, all the music on my iPod was deleted. I then restored my iPod (as my iTunes instructed me to do) and now when I plug my iPod in to sync all the music in my iTunes that got deleted, it says my iPod cannot be synced because I do not have the privilege to make changes. Help!!

If you have iTunes 11.1 on the computer and using the same cable for both iPods that indicates a problem with the iPod.
- Does it charge?
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
- 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.

I have tried plugging it in and holding the sleep/wake button and home button at same time and all it does is gives me the "slide to power off" option. Is there anything I can do??? Please Help!

Try DFU mode and then restore
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
Or try using this program to place the iPod in recovery mode
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
- Next try the manual install method of:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
- Then try on another computer

I just purchased a new iMac. My iTunes account is missing a ton of music and only contains "purchased" music. When I try to load music from my ipod to match my imac it only asks if i'd like to sinc my ipod with my account. How do I access my entire library? Thanks

Unless you subscribe to Match, you will have to transfer your non-iTunes stuff from your old computer:

If you want to copy non-iTunes music off of your iPod (eg, if your old computer doesn't exist), you'll need to use a third party program. I don't know of any free ones anymore, but if you google, you can find several in the $19 range.

You buy one and only one download.
As it should have been transferred to your computer when you synced, you can contact itunes support and ask for an exception.

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable. (is this what you meant by charger?)
- 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.

Before you restore the iPod from the backup that Dave had you make yu have to transfer stuff from the iPod to the computer since the backup does not contain the apps themselfes, music, synced phots and some other stuff. To see what a backup contains see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946
To transfer iTunes purchases:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- For other stuff you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
