Ipod Mini   Windows XP  

Have you tried restoring your iPod, this will erase the hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings so make sure you have all your songs backed up in iTunes. Once the restore is complete a fresh installation should update from iTunes: Restoring iPod to Factory Settings

  • Updated ipod, wiped out songs, and now I can't get them back on to to it

    I updated my daughters ipod nano, not knowing that it would wipe out all her songs. Now we are trying to get them back on from her library and it only copies 1 song from her 79 and it does not give us the option to send them to it.
    Please Help !!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    When the iPod is connected to the computer and in iTunes go to edit-->preferences. Click the iPod tab. Make sure it is set to automatically update all songs and playlists. Click OK.
    If that doesn't work, try restoring the iPod...
    Restore the iPod
    Now try putting the songs on.
    Also, are the songs that are not transferring purchased (from the iTunes Music Store)?

  • I closed all the taskbars at the top and now I can't get them back.

    I closed all the task bars at the top (so now there is only the blue strip that says 'Firefox - Mozilla Firefox' and the tabs) and now I can't get them back. Tried right clicking everywhere and all the options (right click Firefox in the start menu) but I can't get it back. It's driving me insane - I've got no forward/back buttons, no address bar, no favourites, nothing!

  • I moved the project files and now I can't get them back into iMovie 11

    I was working on a project but I ran out of disk space before I could finish it. Now, for this very purpose, I have an external hard drive with plenty of space on it. So I tried moving the folder with all my project files onto the external hd, and now iMovie can't find my project anymore. With iMovie '06 it was as simple as hitting "save as" and saving the project to the external hd, but I guess that's not complicated enough for the new version. Now I can't get into my project. I even try clicking on the actual project file, and it goes to iMovie as if the project was about to open, but nothing happens. So I fear I wasted a lot of time working on that project only to have to start all over because I ran out of disk space.
    Someone please tell me there's a way to get the project files open again. Thanks

    that is a simple one and should be a routine after purchasing a new drive (in a Mac-only environment!):
    • on your Mac, Apps/Utilities you'll find Disk 'Utility'
    • on the left lane, you'll notice your connected hard drive(s)
    • select it, click on the 'erase' tab
    • NOTE: FORMATTING A DRIVE MEANS ERASING ALL CONTENT ON THAT DRIVE!
    that's why you should do it as step#1 after purchasing a new drive

    "You have to change your router's IP address to be able to access it. It will not give you the internet."
    I'm not sure what that means Richard, but I did change the router's IP address from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.5.1- isn't that what you meant in your first post. I know that isn't reflected in my screen capture that I took last night, but I did do that this morning after I read your post.
    "Log on to your router and change two settings.
    Change the setting in Setup from PPPoE to Automatic Configuration-DHCP and click on save.
    Click on Advance Routing and change the setting from Gateway to Router then click on save."
    I did this and still same results as far as I can tell. Can't get online through the router.
    "Click on MAC address clone under setup tab ... click enable & click clone ...click save settings ... Check the IPaddress under WAN page ....
    If getting IP in public range .... try going online ...."
    I tried this- at least to the part about checking the IP address under WAN. I assume you mean the WAN page in the modem setup- nothing looked any different after trying what you suggested, and I'm not really sure where I would be "getting IP in public range" or what that means.
    I'm about to give up and just buy a new router to see if I can get the same lack of results with a different one. My ISP maintains that everything is set up correctly on their end and really can't do anything more for me. The Modem works and is set up correctly and they can give tech support for a router.
    Here's what my basic setup looks like now:

  • I closed all my toolbars for a clean screenshot, and now I can't get them back. What do I do?

    the background to the toolbars had options to turn all 3 off, and since I wanted to maximize the size of my screenshot, I turned all 3 off: drop-down menus, the webaddress, and bookmarks.

    Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.
    Hit the '''Alt''' key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark. <br />
    The F10 can also be used on most PC's to temporarily reveal the Menu bar.

  • IPhone 5 created a backup larger than the phones capacity (16GB) and now I can't get anything back onto my phone after Restoring it!

    I had a few storage issues to start with, I basically deleted everything in my phone (media, messages, notes, calanders, apps etc) and my phone still said it was at capacity. The more I deleted the less I could put on there. So I took it the the Apple Store where the manager told me to do a Restore. I did this, then was unable to put the backup straight back onto my phone as it said there was not enough free space (it was empty!), I then called Apple Support who instructed me on how to view the size of the backup and it turned out to be 16.32GB (.32GB larger than the iPhones's capacity) but were unable to give me any useful tips! I downloaded a backup extractor but have no idea how to use it! Please help me

    why should I do that?

  • Hey I'm a novice on computers, but i've just done a full system restore on my laptop after backing it up on an external hard-drive long story short in the back up process all my itunes converted to mpeg4 files and now i can't get them back into my my libr

    Hey I'm a novice on computers but i've just done a full system restore on my laptop and put it back to factory spec, obviously i backed up all the data on an external hard-drive but when i have re-installed itunes and gone to import all my old music files from my previous itunes library as mpeg4 files it keeps telling me i don't have permission??!! *** someone please explain or tell me how to get music on to my new itunes without having to re-import every cd i own which is alot!!!

    Other than iMovie, GB always incorporates the audio files into the GB package. So just save or move the GB project to the external drive, and you're done - anything you import, edit or record will be saved to the external drive.

    You can download everything you purchased from the iTunes Store without having to pay again:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Here is the procedure for your reference, using iTunes 10.7. The procedure and screenshots for newer versions are contained in the above link.
    This assumes what you purchased is still available in the Store.
    Open iTunes and click on iTunes Store on the left
    On the right you will see this
    Sign in with your Apple ID, then click on "Purchased" (with the orange blob)
    On the summary page that appears select the tab "Not on This Computer" on the right.
    On the list that appears, select what you want and then click the "Download" button.

  • I updated my iPad to ios 6.1 and now all my notes are gone.  Can you get them back?

    I updated my I pad to iOS 6.1 and now all my notes are gone.  Can you get them back?

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Offand, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"
    If these do not solve the problem you can restore from a current iTunes or iCloud backup.

    Which photos? If the missing photos were synced to the iPod then you have to get them from where you got them the first time. Synced photos are not in the backup that iTunes makes.

    If you had a back-up created you can simply restore from your back-up.
    This article may help, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you don't have a back-up you will unfortunately need to input all of your settings again.
