If you have iTunes 11 (the latest which you should use) 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
To sync to your iPod go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod.... and follow the instructions.

My iPhone will not turn on, when I plug it into my computer and load up iTunes its in recovery mode and the only option is to restore my device to factory settings. I have no back up of my phone I've also tried the home/sleep button thing but nothing

My iPhone 4 will not turn on, when I plug it into my computer and load up iTunes its in recovery mode and the only option is to restore my device to factory settings, I have no back up of my phone I've also tried the home/sleep button thing but nothing, I have literally done every method I was told, I checked for water damage and that's fine. I don't want to restore my phone or buy a new one or pay for repairs because that's wasting money when it could be a simple way to fix it. And yes, I've also tried charging it and turning it in. I really need some help with my phone

That does happen. It depends on how hard the server is being hit, as well as the connection speed of your system. If you are on a windows system, you will want to disable any antivirus or firewall software during the download.

I am using numbers in the new iWork. Just bought it 10 days back. I am not able to figure out how to add serial umbers from 1 to 100( for example) also i need to freeze the top header like in windows so that we can browse down without the heading going of

Hi Jay,
Be aware that "Freeze Header Rows" and "Freeze Header Columns" apply only to rows and columns that are Header rows or Header columns. You can have up to five Header rows, Five Header Columns (and five Footer rows) on a Numbers Table.
"Header rows" is a special designation. Besides being able to be frozen, Header and Footer rows are not included in formulas referencing whole columns, making it possible to place formulas such as =SUM(B) at the top (or bottom) of column B without causing a self-reference error, These designated rows are also not included in sorts of the rows in a table.

Barry

Somehow my itunes started a new library and I lost my old library. Itunes will not allow me to sync new music to my ipod without deleting stored music from ipod. How can I start using this new library and sync the new music without losing existing music.

Somehow my Itunes started a new music library and I lost the old library. Itunes will not allow me to sync new music from my computer to my Ipod because it is now in a different library. Itunes wants to delete all my Ipod music before sync any new music. How do I work around this. I think this happened during Itunes Upates.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

I am at a computer that does not have my music library. I have a CD that I want to add to my iphone. The only music on this compi=uter is the new CD I just bought. Everything I do seems to suggests that my entire iphone library will be replaced

Help

Hi istillFrustrated,
If you try to sync your device to a new computer that does not have your iTunes Library on it, then it will erase everything on your device and sync whatever is in the iTunes Library on the Computer you are syncing with.
You need to transfer your iTunes Library to the new computer, or you need to burn the CD to the iTunes Library on the computer you normally sync with.
Cheers,
GB

When I create a new contact on my iPhone 5, despite having all my devices connected to iCloud, the contact does not appear anywhere else. Please can you let me know how to solve this?

When I create a new contact on my iPhone 5 it does not appear on any of my other devices (iPad, PC).

''Firefox 4.0 has a new feature that automatically saves your tabs when you close Firefox.''
Its seems that for many people, this feature was not enabled automatically, instead it is set on a different setting of 'show my homepage' or 'show a blank page'. But it is very easy to change, I just did it myself! Here is how to do it:
At the top left of the screen is an orange 'Firefox' box, click on it. On the right of the dropdown menu you will see 'Options'. Click on it. Then you will see another 'Options', click on it. This will bring up the Options menu.
The part we are interested in for this fix is where it says, 'When FireFox starts:'. There is a dropdown selection next to that sentance, click on the little down-arrow, and choose ' Show my windows and tabs from last time'. Then click on 'OK' at the bottom of the Options menu, this will close the menu.
You should be sorted now, I was. I hope it works for you too. To test it out, have a few tabs open, and close firefox. Then try open it. Those same tabs should re-appear. Holding thumbs & fingers crossed :)

HELP!!!!!! I changed Computers and My Ipod Will Not Sync the New Music!

So I've changed comupters. I just reinstalled itunes and I'm trying to sync a new album on my ipod but the artists, songs, album will not show up on my ipod even after I clicked sync. How Do I transfer music that I bought on my first laptop onto the one I have now?

*I just reinstalled itunes and I'm trying to sync a new album on my ipod but the artists, songs, album will not show up on my ipod even after I clicked sync*
Check your update preferences. Click on the picture of the iPod in the left pane of iTunes. This will bring up the tabs in the main pane to the right. In the first tab "Summary" check to see if your iPod is set to "manually manage songs and playlists". If you have songs on the iPod that aren't on your computer then leave it at this setting, if you change it to sync automatically it will erase anything you have on the iPod and replace it with whatever is in your new iTunes.
*How Do I transfer music that I bought on my first laptop onto the one I have now?*
If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases you'll find details on transferring them to your new computer in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
The transfer of content from sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.

I recently downloaded a bunch of songs an ringtones from Itunes on my phone. I synced up the phone to my computer to back up the files and to charge it and afterward all the new music and ringtones are gone?! Checked iTunes and they're not there either!

I recently downloaded a bunch of songs and ringtones to my iPhone 4 and when I synced my phone to my computer to back up the files and to charge the phones the ringtones and songs were gone. They disappeared from my phone and from my iTunes as well. I checked my my iTunes for downloadable items and there was nothing there. I went onto iTunes and tried to download the same things that I had previously and when I did it said I had already downloaded them? iTunes only gave me the option to purchase the music and ringtones again. Does this happen often or is there something wrong with the software on my iPhone?

Hi,
Did you have the music in your iTunes library on your computer when you signed up for match? How did you transfer the music from you iPhone to your computer? Do you have a back up.

I have been told that my I-tunes has probably been corrupted. How do I remove the corrupted program and restore an i-tunes that is not corrupted. Also, how do I get the new uncorrepted i-tunes to up date the i-pad and i-phone?

I have been told that my i-tunes is probably corrupted. How do I uninstall the corrupted i-tunes and install an i-tunes that is not corrupted? Will this automatically be sync.ed to my i-phone4s and i-pad once corrected on my emachine computer?

Just download a fresh installer and see if that works. If it is in the Add/Remove or Programs and Features, then uninstall and reinstall. If it cant, or isnt listed, then just reinstall.

Adobe Photoshop elements - the catalog will not open on the new laptop I just bought.

I installed the Adobe software for Elements 5.0. The catalog won't open. The new laptop uses Windows 7. Could that be the problem? If so, how do I rectify the problem?

Hi,
Actually, I did eventually get it to open. However, the photos are no longer tagged. I recovered the photos from my external hard drive, which is where I always stored them.
So you are saying that I would need to actually to a BACKUP from ELEMENTS itself? If I do that, the tags will still be attached to the photos? I have over 6000 photos. I do not want to have to reorganize and re tag them again.
Thank you for any suggestions you can provide!

HT1510 My iPod shuffle is not being recognized by my computer. I have the original USB cord but when I plug it into my computer there is no recognition. The first time I plugged it in it recognized but never again.

My iPod shuffle is not being recognized by my computer. It is flashing orange and when plugged in with the original USB cable nothing happens to show the computer recognizes it.

Flashing orange usually means it is being recognized by the computer. The flashing means do not disconnected, because the shuffle's "disk" is mounted.
In iTunes (with the shuffle connected), when you look in the sidebar (left side of window), under DEVICES, the iPod is not shown there? Does it say DEVICES in the sidebar?

I closed about 60 tabs when working on my wife's computer. How can I restore the tabs again? Where does FF save the lists of urls? This is extremely urgent - can save my marriage! Thanks.

This was done on FF6.0 running XP

You can restore a closed window -- don't know about 60 tabs removed from a window. Use "Alt" to bring up the Menu bar (if hidden), then click on History, then Restore windows then select windows to restore and / or tabs to restore.
You can bookmark all of the open tabs by right click on a tab then "Bookmark all tabs" will be grayed out if only one tab, and in FF 6.0 does bookmark the app-tabs. App-tabs should already be bookmarked by you anyway so they can can be restored.
If you fail to bring back the tabs, use the History Sidebar ("Ctrl+H"), they are not in the history on the basis of last open though so if they've been open for several days you may have a hard time finding what was lost. The "View" single menu item at the top of the History sidebar allows for various ordering, but you may wish to the the History Library List instead ("Ctrl+Shift+H").
