Nano 4gig not letting me load music into it

down at the bottom where it says USED and FREE space, there's a little LOCK symbol next to the USED
i put my cursor over it but nothing happens.
i've restarted the ipod and computer and usb several times, but to no avail.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
That lock means that you have set your iPod to automatically update.
That lock is perfectly normal and okay. iTunes should be updating all your music onto your iPod (or whatever you have set it to do).
If you want to manually drag music onto the iPod, then you have to set it to manually manage songs and playlists (through iTunes preferences or the Summary tab, depending on which version of iTunes you are using).

  • My HD died on my iMac. I replaced it and lost everything that was on it. I found my source disks from my original purchase for Final Cut Express HD 3.5.  I now have Maverick ISO and it will not let me load my software so I can continue my film work. ???

    My HD died on my iMac. I replaced it and lost everything that was on it. I found my source disks from my original purchase for Final Cut Express HD 3.5.  I now have Maverick ISO and it will not let me load my software so I can continue my film work. How do I get it too recover it without paying for it again since I paid for it already and have projects in progress that need to be completed?

    1) Partition your hard drive or add an external drive and install Snow Leopard (with the Optional Rosetta) into it and then you can dual-boot (System Preferences:Startup Disk) into Snow Leopard and run FCE 3.5 there.
    2)  Use one of the following methods to install FCE 3.5 into Mavericks:
    a)  Pacifist:  http://www.charlessoft.com/
    b)  Jeremy Johnstone's Terminal method:  http://www.jeremyjohnstone.com/blog/2012-03-11-installing-final-cut-pro-studio-2 -0-on-mac-os-x-10-7-lion.html
    Reports on this forum seem to confirm that Final Cut Studio 2 will continue to operate in Mavericks once it is functionally installed, albeit some plug-ins may fail to function.  FCE 3.5 is the same generation as FCS2, and presumably will continue to operate in Mavericks, as well.

  • My generation 6 Ipod nano will not let me download songs from my library to my playlist if they are on the cloud. How do i get the songs on my playlist?

    My generation 6 IPOD Nano will not let me put songs on my playlist from the library. A message comes up saying it has to be downloaded from the cloud. I do I bypass this?

    If the songs are not in your iTunes library, download them as indicated here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519.  Then sync them to your iPod.

  • I just purchased PSE 8 for my windows 7 and it will not let me load the "content" cd,

    I just tried my new PSE 8 for the first time and it will not let me load the "content" dvd, it states that PSE is already running (it is not) and to close program and start again.  Any ideas?  This is my first time using any kind of video editing software also.

    Photoshop Elements (PSE) doesn't ship with a Content DVD.
    I think you're probably referring to the PRE Content DVD that comes with Premiere Elements (PRE)
    The PRE User to User Forum (http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere/premiere_elements) may be a better place to post this question.
    If you bought the Bundle of PSE and PRE it would have come with the PRE Content Disk, but the PRE Forum is still where you might find some help.

  • Imovie will not let me load a movie to You Tube error message say wrong user name and password when it is right

    imovie will not let me load a movie to You Tube. The error message from imovie says it is the wrong password and user name. I rechecked it and it is right.

    It can be tricky sometimes.  Go to your youtube account in Safari and try logging in.  They might have changed the security requirements.  In addition, you might find this software easier to use for uploading video to youtube.

  • It's not letting me put music on my phone from my iTunes? What do I do?

    It's not letting me put music on my phone from my iTunes? What do I do?

    Be sure both the iPhone and iTunes are in fact yours.
    They should both be using the same Apple ID and password, and be transferring music that belongs to you (belongs to that Apple ID, and not synced to some other computer).

  • IOS7 will not let me transfer music to my phone. Please help

    Hello,
    I currently have version 10.6.3 for iTunes. After downloading the new IOS7 software, my phone will not let me transfer music to it without version 11.1 of iTunes. I have gone through and downloaded the missing versions of iTunes (10.6.8, 10.7) and when i try to upload them onto my computer, I receive and error message saying I need version 10.6. Please help!

    Reset the phone (no data loss): press both the home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears.

  • IPhone will not let me add music

    My iPhone will not me add any music to it. It will not let me sync music to it, or drag music to it. I've tried clicking the box to manually manage music and that has not worked, neither has hitting the sync button. When I try to drag music from my Library the red circle with a line through comes up. When I try to sync, it just won't do it. 

    Then I guess I would recommend you try uninstalling iTunes and all of its components as outlined here: Windows XP, Windows Vista/7, and then reinstall the latest version of iTunes.  You must follow this guide, uninstalling all of the components and in the correct order, or it will not be successful.  Also, uninstalling iTunes only removes the application; it won't touch your iTunes library or data.

  • I have money on my account but it will not let me purchase music can someone help? pls

    I have loaded an itunes gift card to my itunes account and it will not let me purchase any music can anyone help with this

    What exactly happens when you try to buy something ? If you've already removed the card from your account then iTunes shouldn't be asking for any details about it.
    If you log into into your account is the card still shown . On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.  If you are doing it on your phone then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account  - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.

  • Cannot load music into iTunes

    I am having a problem loading some of my music into iTunes. I choose the folder (or even just the file) and have it load. It shows the bar analyzing files and it goes through all of the files, but then nothing happens and the music is not loaded or only a couple songs off the album are loaded. I have had thees same albums loaded on iTunes before and nothing has changed with my system or the file format since then. I had to delete them off of iTunes and try to re-add them because I did something with the id tags that messed up the info. The file format is mp3 and the files are perfectly normal (I can play them on other media players). Anyone know what is up?

    Hi Catherine,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
    There are several ways to get music on your iPod, you'll have to enable the Manually manage music and videos to drag and drop. The article below provides more information and will walk you through the process.

  • Photosmart D7560 will not print envelopes - load paper into main tray

    My photosmart d7560 will not print envelopes, after moving the envelope into position for printing, the message "load paper into main tray" is displayed.  It does print the envelope data correctly on a piece of 8.5x11 paper.  Setup is for a #10 envelope.  Envelopes are self sealing.  I have tried creasing the edge better but that didn't help.  I tried a non-self seal (which had a letterhead on it so I couldn't use it for this mailing) and it DID work.  Is there any way to make self seal envelopes work in this printer?
    This question was solved.

    Do you have the flap folded inside the envelope, so that it does not stick out?
