My sisters ipod touch was being registered to my itunes account and then itunes crashed at the final stage and now it wont give me an option to sync my apps and songs from my itunes to her ipod. What can i do?

I have an iphone and it is obviously registered to my itunes so i have all my apps and music on it and my sister just got the new ipod touch and wants my apps and music and so i went to register it to my itunes to sync my music and apps to it just before her birthday but itunes crashed on one of the stages (the final stage i think) of registartion and so i had to close itunes and start it up again but it didnt give me the steps to register the ipod again and now when i connect it i go onto the ipod button and it is just blank with ipod written in the middle with no autofill buttons or sync buttons or any automatic fills and i cant drag music onto it either. Is there anything i can do?

- You need to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod and start anew. Is the restore button visable in iTunes? If it is they restore the iPod.
- If it is not visible try resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- If the restore button is still not visable, try placing the iPod in recovry mode. See:

My ipod touch is being replaced by a warranty. How do I back up the data? I have to send the old one in first, before receiving the new one.

How can I fix this.

As for iMessage, you do Settings -> Messages (scroll down) -> where it says iMessage, turn the switch to off.
As for pictures, you do Settings -> iCloud -> Photo Stream -> My Photo Stream -> turn switch off.
As for apps, you do Settings -> iTunes & App Stores (scroll down alot) -> Music, Apps, Books are all swtiched off.
If you want to the delete the music, you go onto the music app and slide your finger from right to left on the song.

I recently bought an ipod shuffle and my computer doesn't give me an option to sync. I downloaded latest edition of itunes and it still won't let me sync.

Why can't we activate ipod touch after being registered?

Just recieved an ipod touch as a gift. Someone told me that I could just log onto my already existing account with apple because I have an Iphone and just register my Ipod touch. I registered it and it still will not activate. Help

I would uninstall both iTunes and Quicktime and reinstall them. Follow these instructions:

The option to sync calendars/contacts has diapered from my iTunes. Help?

Upgraded to 10.9.2 last week. Now when i go to iTunes, the option to sync my calendar and contacts is nowhere to be found. there is a sync button, but it only syncs browser data, apps, etc. My outlook stuff is not syncing with iCal, even though it's supposed to as i have sync services turned on. I'm really getting tired of Apple's BS.

"I've got sync services turned on in Outlook."
Okay but Sync Services does not exist in OS X 10.9.
MS needs to update Outlook for removal of Sync Services.
Local sync with iTunes is supposed to return to a newer version of iTunes & 10.9.
FYI: it is now called Calendar. iCal went away with 10.8

Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

I plug in my iPhone 5C into my computer, and it charges, but when I go onto iTunes it isn't appearing there so I can't sync it or copy music from my computer onto it. What can I do to fix this?

Well, I will explain. I got a new iPhone 5C last week, and since then I have not had time to plug it into iTunes on my computer as I was checking out all the new stuff (as it is my first iPhone). I also have an iPod touch 4th gen, which I was using before on which I had purchased lots of music and apps on. I was browsing my iTunes account today to find that a Katy Perry album I had bought was not appearing as "purchased" and available to download, it was instead coming up with the price of £7.99. Since I only have less than that on my account and have not credit card connected to my account, I thought I could at least try to see what would happen if I tapped to purchase it, knowing it couldn't charge me. Instead, I got a message saying that it had already been purchased or something like that. This got me quite confused, as I was sill not able to download it.
Knowing this, I was sure that the songs were on my account, so I got iTunes downloaded on laptop (latest version) in order to get them onto my iPhone. I plugged in my iPhone 5C, it was charging, but iTunes did not automatically open like it did before with my iPod Touch 4g. I then opened iTunes by clicking on the icon. iTunes opened but my phone wasn't showing up as a device. It is turned on and fully connected and charging, so I am really not sure why this is happening. If anyone could help it would be really good! Thanks!

While trying to rebuild my library after loosing my harddrive, I conneced my ipod nano 3rd Gen. to charge and when prompted if I wanted to sync (warning I would be replacing the library) I didnt accept as I only had a few songs replaced. Now I finally have my library rebuilt andI cant get it to sync. In windows It only shows as "Photo Stream."

Restore the iPod to factory settings in iTunes to associate the Nano with your new iTunes library.

HT204053 my ipod touch was stolen

Hi , Unfourtuntaly my Ipod touch was stolen when I went to get my 1993 corvette detail. The guy who stole it has been hacking into my google account. I have two ipad and back them up with icloud, unfortuntly I did not with the ippod touch. I did have the serial number once before from a apple assoicate. I also was able to track down some of the place they been by looking at my google history. I di not have any more details now. I did contact the owner of the shop, which i think it might have been him as well. I also called the police and told them where the ipod has been and where it last place to be at and had the serial number then and I told him I would like for him to go get it. He called the shop owner to work things out with me . he chose not too. and now I do not have the serial number. What can i do? Sincerly Karen aka Harmony4jc

First change your Google account / Gmail password. Go here:
https://www.google.com/settings/security
Sign in with your Google ID and password, and change your password. You will need to change your Google password in all the devices that use it already - your computers and iPads for instance, so don't forget the new password.
While you are there consider adding a secondary contact email and / or a phone number for Google account verification also.
That will prevent the thief from using your Google account, assuming he didn't change your password already. That would be bad.
Your iPod's serial number, while useful for the police report to establish ownership, is not useful in determining its location. Only iCloud can do that, assuming it was enabled it in your iPod Touch.
If you are absolutely certain the shop stole your iPod, or even failed to properly secure your Vette and its contents while it was in their care, then file a claim in small claims court. The burden is on you to prove they stole it, but if the shop owner suspects you are right he will settle with you. He may even fire the scumbag who stole it.
Don't forget that comprehensive auto insurance policies generally cover the car's contents as well, but the reimbursement might only reduce your deductible amount.
Good luck!

Any one can help? my ipod touch was stolen

my ipod touch was stolen is there any way of finding it if provided with the serial number

No, Apple can't find your iPod, you'll have to report to your local law enforcement agency.

I accidentally erased my phone from Find my Iphone App and I have a sim lock on my phone - now it wont let me restore. any ideas?
When I try to connect to itunes, It states ''The sim card of this phone is PIN locked - please enter the PIN code of your SIM card and connect again to iTunes" however I don't have the option to enter the Pin code on my phone as on my phone screen it states "your iphone could not be activated because the activation server is temporaily unavailable"
PLEASE HELP AND THANK YOU

With a sim lock,
you'll have to contact your carrier for the PUK code, as described here:

When I save a pages document as a pdf and then try to email the document, it loads as an application octet-stream dat file instead of a pdf. What's happening?

When I save a Pages document as a pdf and then try to email the document, it loads as an application octet-stream dat file instead of a pdf and recipients can't open it. Some load correctly, but about half don't load as a pdf. What's happening?

Hi mjmonck-
Which email provider are you using? There are different solutions possible for different providers. Yahoo is having trouble with attachments, outside of any Firefox issue. I've seen a Google user fix this by manually adding the mail URL to their ad block program- which mistakenly perceived the webmail page as an advertisement.
Hope this helps.
