  • Need help loading songs from computer to iPhone

    Problem moving songs from computer to iPone in same order

    How are you trying to get music on the phone, either via sync or manually manage music? And, what are you referring to when you say "in same order"?

  • Need help getting songs from iTunes to iCloud and to ios devices.

    I just added some CDs onto my iTunes account on my MacBook and they won't transfer to my iPhone or iPad.  The titles of the songs show up on my IOS devices within the Music app but they are grayed out and won't play. I'm using iCloud and Music Match. Hopefully something simple.  Thanks in advance for your help!

    UPDATE - 20 minutes at the Genius Bar and it was resolved.  The tech that helped me out had never seen anything like it before but he and another tech starting looking up stuff on one of the iPads that they have which provides them with solutions to all kinds of problems.  He tried a few things on my Mac and then kept switching pages on his iPad for solutions.  I'm guessing it said "try this and if that doesn't work then go to the next step".  Eventually he got it to work so obviously there is a "fix" out there for issues related to iMatch, iCloud, and the Moutain Lion update. 
    I asked him what all he did to fix it but he said it was too complicated to explain even though it was very simple.  Oh well, rest assured that it can be corrected and hopefully someone will be able to post the fix on here so as to save people trips to an Apple Store.  One last thing, nothing had to be removed or reloaded in my iTunes account.  I hope this helps you out some.

  • How do I get songs from my old Ipod onto my Iphone? I have a new apple ID for my phone... Do I need to use my old apple ID to get songs from my Ipod to my Iphone?

    I need help getting songs from my Ipod to my Iphone. I have a different Apple ID on my ipod... I am not sure of that Apple ID. How do I figure that out? How do I get my songs to all be on my Iphone.
    I do not want to repay for songs I have already.

    Are the songs on a computer? Right mouse click on a song and on the summary page it will tell you what AppleID was used to purchase it.
    If you are going to carry on using the same computer then just plug in the iPhone and sync the information there. So you will have a copy on your iPhone and maybe different stuff on your ipod.

  • New ipod need help with songs from old one NEED HELP!!!!

    I got a new ipod nano 3rd gen. but it wont let me take all of my old songs from my old ipod(nano 1st gen) and put them on my new one! I dont want to lose my songs so PLEASE HELP!!

    When I did that on my old ipod and it said doing so will delete all the songs on it and replace it with my library. When I did it on my new ipod it just put the songs that was already in that playlist back on the ipod, not the songs that i need from the old one.

  • How to get songs from my old ipod to my new hard drive then to my new ipod?

    Recently my computer crash and in order to fix it I had to get a new hard drive which means all my songs' files is gone! I had over 2,000! So I was wondering if there is a way in which I can take all the songs from my ipod and transfer it back to my computer now that it is fixed?? Also, my situation is a bit more complex because I am planning to get a newer ipod.
    My old one is a ipod photo (I believe it is the 4th generation) and I am getting the 5th generation ipod video. Is there a way where I can transfer my songs from my old ipod back to my computer or itunes first then plug in my new one so it can update my old songs from my old ipod and my new songs' files in my computer all into my new ipod.
    I reinstall itunes because I still use the program to listen to new songs that I have on my computer so I don't know if this information is useful or make things more confusing. I don't know if I should delete this version itune and reinstall the disk that comes with the ipod video? Or is it the same itunes version?
    I really need help here I'm so confused on what to do and I am afraid of plugging my ipod in because it would update to my new song on my computer and delete all my old 2,000 songs from my ipod that I do not have backup files too because my old hard drive crash!
    Any suggestions, advises, or comments are appreciate!

    Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod.
    The transfer of content 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:

    If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
    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 would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • Can't get songs from library to ipod

    hi
    i just bought an ipod yesterday. I was able to get songs from my cd's to the library. I can't get the songs from the library to my ipod. When i look in the user guide, i see an option button which looks like it should be in the bottom right hand corner. My itunes does not have this button. I even removed programs and downloaded from apple website. What am i doing wrong.

    hi!
    * Sorry for my last post, this is want i want you to search for:
    SYNC/ERASE
    * using the latest iPod Updater and iTunes Correctly:
    1. Run iPod updater, then connect your iPod shuffle
    2. After it recognizes the iPod, run iTunes
    3. The iTunes will not recognize the iPod shuffle.
    4. Close the iPod updater, iTunes will now recognize the iPod shuffle
    5. You could now sync/erase your songs
    * I think the iPod shuffle updater program conflicts with iTunes program:
    Coz, if you just connect your iPod shuffle and let the iTunes run automatically, the iTunes will recognize it while the windows will recognize it for just a sec then disconnects it, that's why you couldn't sync/erase yor songs.
    ** Only tested in iPod shuffle, but i think this will work too if you got the same problems.
    * wait 5-10 sec for each steps (1-3)
    i hope this would help you!..

  • Need help getting contacts from outlook 2010

    I need help getting my contacts from outlook 2010 to icloud and/or my iphone. I have icloud up and logged in on pc. when I go to a contact to import it says there was a problem reading the vcard. any help is welcomed.

    I do have the latest version of DTM and working with OUTLOOK 2000.  I know it is old, but it still does what I need it to. I did try to uninstalland reinstall.  No luck.  The only options listed to sync are yahoo, outlook express, and ASCII inport/export.  Obviously it is not syncing my other data either, but it is my contacts that I am most concerned with at this point.  The calader would be nice too!  Any other suggestions, or is my outlook too old to sync?

    how do i move songs from computer to ipod

    Maybe I did it wrong, but I tried that, and nothing changed. I bought the songs on iTunes, not through my iPod...but thank you anyway. I also tried the "manage music manually" setting on my iPod and nothing changed either. What should I see when I try that?

  • I DESPERATLY NEED HELP TRANSFERING SONGS FROM IPOD TO ITUNES LIBRARY

    hi my computer crashed downstairs and i need help moving all my songs from my ipod to my itunes library, on the other computer...will someone please help me?

    Hello Markatkis,
    Make sure your not connecting it to more than one PC. A new iPOd is set to "Auto Update" by default. With this setting all you do is plug the iPOd into the PC and iTUnes automaticly opens, loads all the songs it has listed in iTunes to the iPod, and after its done, ejects the iPOd.
    If you connect it to another PC tho with iTUnes on it you usually get a promtp that in short says "iPOd library linked to another PC, do you want to link to this one" if you click yes, it wipes the iPOd clean and loads only whats on that PC.
    Since your new to all of this a great place for you may be the "iPod 101" site. It will show you all the bacis ropes of using your iPOd, using iTUnes, and using them both together. http://www.apple.com/support/ipod101/
