My G4 synced my 2 new videos, but my G3 won't

I'm syncing "to this computer" with the cable. Worked fine with the G4, and always has with the G3, but not this time.
Everything's checkmarked.
Also, I've somehow deleted ALL the videos (about 12) on the G3.
Any idea of what's going on?
Thank you

Is the formate compatible with the 3G (assuming you are talking about the 3G and 4G iPod touches)? Only the 4G iPod can play/sync HD videos. Also see:

Why can't I transfer videos to my iPod?

Does the iPod show up in iTunes on the Mac? If not try:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
also
If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
Otherwise what happens when you try to sync? Note that you can only sync with one iTunes library/computer. If that is the problem you should go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase and content and setting and set up the iPod on you computer/iTunes library. One content on the iPod does not belong to you.

I previously synced my iPhone 5 to my home computer, but my computer crapped out, so I am trying to sync to my new computer, but it is keeping all of my old songs as well, so I have duplicates. Is there a way to erase my old playlist?

The title describes my problem. I stopped using my old computer, and when I went to sync to my new computer, a playlist I had is still on my iPhone 5. These are not songs purchased on iTunes. I tried to swipe erase them, but that caused the phone to lock up. I've tried removing all songs from my phone, but they still show up.
Thanks!

Hi Huberticus,
If you currently have all of your content on your new computer (songs, contacts, data, etc), you may want to try using iTunes to restore your iPhone to factory settings, then bring the data back over from iTunes. You may find the following article helpful:

Synced bookmarks to new computer but thumbnail icons didn't come along.

I synced my bookmarks to a new computer but the little identifying thumbnail icons didn't come along. So now there is just a generic empty box next to each until I click on the bookmark, at which point it refreshes with the proper icon. Is there a way to get them all to refresh without having to visit each site? Thanks much.

Try using this addon [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/faviconreloader/ here]. It refreshes favicons (The little identifying thumbnail icons) by using your bookmarks.
Reply if this hasn't helped.

How do I restore my Ipad 4 from my desktop computer? My charger was broken. I bought a new one but now it won't charge. I have a BATTERY bar in the middle of the screen that is flashing RED and I have a symbol on the bottom that looks like a charger.

How do I restore my Ipad 4 from my desktop computer? My charger was damaged so I bought a new one but it won't charge. On my Ipad, I have a BATTERY bar in the middle that is flashing RED and an icon on the bottom that looks like the end of a charger. I have tried to force into reset mode, by holding the sleep key and home button SEVERAL times but it does NOT work. I have plugged my Ipad into my desktop computer, but I do not have a screen on my desktop that is coming up. THIS HAPPENED BEFORE AFTER I DID AN UPDATE AND WAS LOCKED OUT AND I USED EITHER ICLOUD OR ITUNES TO RESTORE, NOT SURE WHICH AND I FORGOT HOW.

Hi MrsMoosie,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If your iPad isn't responding or doesn't appear to be charging, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following articles helpful, in particular the following portion:
If you don't see the charging screen within an hour, or you see the connect to power screen, check your connector, USB cable, and power adapter. Make sure that everything is plugged in firmly, free of debris, and not damaged. You might want to try a different USB cable or power adapter.

Computer crashed. sync ipod to new itunes but threatens to erase! pls reply

Hi,
my computer crashed and everything has been wiped.
So i download new itunes, and sync my ipod but threatens to erase all my files.
This computer runs on Windows XP and my ipod is an ipod touch.
Is there any way to get all my music & videos onto my computer or straight onto itunes?
There's just alot of music and videos that i can't just download them all again!

Welcome to AD!
My advice is to use a 3rd-party ipod manager program to get everything off the ipod.
You can start your research here:

Old laptop crashed, tried syncing it into new one but half my songs disappeared. No I got a new ipod and another new laptop. How do i get back my lost songs and make sure it all ends up on my new ipod?

I had a laptop that had over 2,000 songs in my library but it crashed and my ipod could only hold a little over 1000. Later, when I got my new laptop, I synced my ipod to it only to have all my songs disappear. I did the itunes media folder thing and only got about half of my songs back (some from CDs, some from the itunes store and some from amazon downloads). I hadto get a newhard drive for my laptop and now i have a new ipod. So how can I getback my old songs and then get ALL of my songs tranfered to my new ipod?

Hello Chris,
Thanks for your answer. I was hoping for an easier answer. Too bad there is no drag and drop solution, it would have been much easier.
Thanks for answering so fast.
Bye.

Everytime I hook up my ipod, it syncs not only new music, but only a select few of my older, already synced music

When I connect my ipod to my computer, Itunes automatically launches like I set it up to do. Then, any new music that I've put onto my computer, syncs with my ipod. This is all fine. However, I notice that some of my music seems to sync EVERY TIME I connect. It's the same cds that do it over and over again. My ipod doesn't have duplicate copies as a result, and I dont' see anything duplicating in my library on the computer. So it's not really a problem, but more of a WTH is going on thing. Any suggestions ?

Does it matter?
Frankly there are things a lot more serious to worry about... just accept it and move on.

Sync iPhone with new computer but keep text messages / photos etc

Hi,
So I have an iPhone 4 that I always synced with my Mac Book Pro. I now use a Mac Pro tower computer as my primary machine. I hear you can only sync with one computer at a time (is this true?) well if so, I'd like to start syncing my iphone with the tower for now on, but am concearned cause my friend was in the same predicament and had a bunch of stuff erased. I see online a lot of people say to manually transfer your music to the new computer and sync, but I want to make sure everything else is properally done as well including contacts photos and the text message / call history etc.
My itunes music is already transfered to the tower. I beleve my "contacts" app is mostly updated on my tower , and even more updated on the phone itself. The photos are only on my iphone, and the text message / call / voicemails are only on the phone ( I dont even think those could be backed up). So - should I just go ahead and try and sync it with the new computer?
What option would I choose...I don't think I wanna swipe it...and although I have my music on the tower, my contacts / photos are on the phone so what is the best way of properly doing this?
Thanks

You just have to set your preferences in iTunes.
You can choose not to delete contacts etc from the iPhone. After you connect the iPhone, click on the iPhone icon that shows up in iTunes, and go to the appropriate tab, and check / uncheck what you want or don't want.
I don't think text messages get deleted or changed.

My ipod is synced on my new computer but i want a song on my old computer but my ipod is not syncing with the old one. What do I do?

What do i do? (BTW: i own a pc)

transfer the song from the old to the new computer's iTunes.
you can use e.g. home sharing to transfer the song.

Added new file but type still won't open in CS5

I would like CS5 to be able to open .m3u files as text files. I have added M3U into the Extensions.txt in my C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\Applications Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS5\en_US\Configuration\Extensions.txt, and the C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\configuration\Extensions.txt files. I've also added it to the C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\configuration\DocumentTypes\MMDocumentTypes.xml file. I have tried this two different ways: one by adding M3U as an addition TXT file, and the other as a completely new type.
In both cases, I can do File\Open and it lists my type (either Text Files (*.txt; *.m3u) or M3U Files (*.m3u)), but when I try to open a file with .m3u extension I get "Dreamweaver can't open .m3u files. Please choose an HTML, XML, or other compatible file."
Is there some other location I need to change this? Or is there somewhere to tell CS5 to open unrecgonized file types as text (the way Dreamweaver 8 used to work)?

Robert,

You should never edit files in the *Application* Configuration folder (i.e.C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\configuration). You should only edit files in the *User* Configuration fodler (i.e. C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\Applications Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS5\en_US\Configuration). The reason is that you can always delete your User Configuration folder to reset to your original installation files.
You said that you edited "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\configuration\DocumentTypes\MMDocumentTypes.xml" but you should have edited the one in your User Configuration folder instead. If it doesn't exist in the User Configuration folder, then copy it there first, then edit it. You should just need to add it to the winfileextension and/or macfileextension attribute(s) as a comma-separated value.
You'll need to shutdown and restart DW.
HTH,

I have a new iMac but iMovie 11 won't open - just crashes instantly?

Originally it did open but when asked to convert thumbnails from video in iPhoto when selecting this option to access these videos - it crashed.
I have tried deleting it the app and redownloading it but this hasn't worked and now it simply crashes on opening?
Any help gratefully recieved...
Thanks

Hi:
Those files are in your home folder ( ~library>preferences). You can find the library by clicking on "go" in the menu bar while holding the option key down. With the release of OS X, Apple has hiddeen the library - I think because one can do a lot of damage if one fools around with much of the data there....

Applying for a new job but their system won't except my resume

I really hope someone can help me. I am trying to apply for a job. I have a resume that was originally written on a Windows Vista. I was able to get it saved on to my iMAC but now that I try to use it with my future empolyer's system it wont upload due to formatting. I thought making changes to file sharing may correct it but no luck. How do I change the format so it will be excepted? Any ideas?? Thanks Apple land!!!

What format does your prospective employer need? What kind of file is your resume?

I updated some games. For my iPod touch 4th gen on the computer. But it wont up on my iPod I synced the apps and all but it still won't come up D; anyone know?

Please answer ;3

You probably have a better chance posting in the appropriate section (iPod Touch), as here is for the iPhone use in the enterprise (so for work)
