Need help with transferring from ipod mini to nano!

I own an iPod mini and just went and bought an iPod nano and am wondering how to transfer the music from my mini onto my nano. This may seem like a dumb question but I'm not finding a way in iTunes to do it. Thanks for help in advance

IPods are designed to transfer music in a one way fashion. Meaning, iPods can only have music transferred to them via iTunes, not vice versa. So, in your case, where the iPod mini has your music on its memory, you will be unable to transfer the actual music back to the computer. Hopefully, you have the music from the iPod mini stored on your computer or on some flash drive to be able to import the same music to the iPod nano. I am assuming that this is the case, your music being on iTunes, else other implications would have occurred in updating the iPod mini. Put simply, you need to have your music solely on iTunes and transfer from there to the iPod nano. Hopefully this helps.

Okay, need help with transferring from computer to computer...

I borrowed 5 movies from a friend so I could put them in the format for him to put on his iPod, since he couldn't figure it out, and he uses a Mac and I use Windows, I couldn't really help him out.
So I have them all coded right for him, but the problem is, I have 5 movies, and one or two of them are bigger than my 700mb CD's can hold!
Is there a way that I can put them on my iPod, bring my iPod to his computer, plug it in, and take them off my iPod and put them on his iTunes? Or is this just a dream I wish would come true?

Hmmm, well I know the below stuff works for songs, but could very well work on videos as well. Unfortunately I am not sure. But here are the links for your reading pleasure...

Hello Andrew,
Was the reply I gave you in the other post you made of no help?
I explained that Windows ME is not compatible, but you can get it work with a little messing around, and once again, here's a link on how to do it.
Guide to iPod and Windows ME.
As I said previously though, you won't be able to use iTunes.
See my other answer to you here.

Help! Need help with transferring Ipod to new computer

After it took me forever just to figure out how to ask a question...eerr!
My old computer crashed and I need to move all my files, purchased, photos, and music that were imported. I know with the new Itunes you can transfer the purchased items, but will that erase everything else on my Ipod...ie: my photos and imported files?
I have downloaded a Ipod copier..but not really sure how to do this all. Any help from anyone would be so greatly appreciated.

Check this site out www.findleydesigns.com
you can download whatever you need to recover all photos and music files from Ipod to mac.

Need help with syncing from ITunes to IPOD

Hi. I'm relatively new to ipods but I just got an IPOD mini. Since it only has so much memory(about 4g) I want to sync specific songs, not have Itunes do it automatically. When I clicked on the "manually manage music" I can see it works but only to a certain extent. You have to drag EVERY SINGLE SONG to IPOD in Itunes INDIVIDUALLY!! I cant do that everytime I wanna switch up my IPOD library. I also clicked "only sync clicked items" hoping that in my normal music library, if I click the box to the left of each song that I want to be synced and uncheck the songs I dont want sync'd that would work. Will it? Because that's all I want to do, just sync particular songs without having to drag 1000 songs. Clicking would be so much easier.

Using unchecking to manage an iPod is an option but only if you can live with the other things unchecking does:
Unchecked songs will be skipped when playing songs from the library or a selection. They will only play when individually clicked on.
Smart Playlists have an option that unchecked songs won't appear.
Unchecked songs will not be burned to CD.
A better option to use when your iPod is smaller than the iTunes library is 'Sync Music - Selected playlists'.
Open iTunes and create a playlist to update your iPod from, call it -iPod to make it the first playlist in Sources. You can make this a normal playlist and drag whatever you want to it or you can make it a random Smart playlist. If you are making a smart playlist limit it to just less than the size of your iPod (for example 3700MB for a 4G iPod Nano or Mini). Now connect your iPod and when it appears in the Source list click on the iPod icon to bring up the preference tabs in the main pane. Go to the Music tab and choose Sync Music and the Selected playlists radio button. Choose the playlist you just made from the selection and click Apply. You can also sync from any existing playlists by choosing the same setting:

Need help with sum from previous years

Hi All,
In a report i have 4 fields. The first field shows the YTD invoice totals for the current FY 2010 (which i accomplished). The other 3 fields are :
2nd field Sum of the value of invoices for the FY 1YEAR prior to the current year
3rd field Sum of the value of invoices for the FY 2YEAR's prior to the current year.
4th field Sum of the value of invoices for the FY 3YEAR's prior to the current year.
How can i get the desired results for the second,third and the fourth fields, please need help or advice.
Thanks

Hi
If you have the values for several years in the same report you should be able to do what you want using the analytic LEAD and LAG.
LAG will retrieve values from previous rows whereas LEAD will retrieve values from following rows.
The basic syntax is the same and look like this:
LAG(value, offset) OVER ({optional_partition_clause} ORDER BY mandatory_order_clause)
The ORDER BY clause is mandatory and cannot be omitted. However, this ORDER BY has nothing to do with the sort order you manually create in the worksheet. Generally, most people will set their sort order the same as the ORDER BY in the calculation.
Here's an example that gets year to date from 2 financial years ago:
LAG(YTD,2) OVER (ORDER BY FY)
You have to understand that Discoverer will pull values from previous rows not from previous cells as displayed on the report, although if the cells may happen to be rows too then it will appear as though it is pulling previous cells. I personally am very experienced with analytuc functions and can make manipulate data within Discoverer just about any way that I want. Generally, if I can see data on the screen even when they are in different cells or rows I can create functions to manipulate it. This capability only comes about as a result of experience and I would strongly advise you to practice with the analytics and see if you can at least master some of them. You'll find your Discoverer capabilities will improve dramatically and you will become a great asset at work.
When working with a new report I generally duplicate the report as a table so that I can see the values. Then if I need to sort the items in order to line up the values I want to work with I do so. Having worked out what sort order I need I can then see what offset I use then I create the analytic and use it in the main worksheet.
Hope this helps
Best wishes
Michael

Need help moving music from iPod nano to new computer

I had a computer that had all of my music on it, it was a combination of music I purchased from iTunes, purchased from other places, and that had been transferred from my CDs. That computer died, and the music was lost. My CDs are in storage and I can't put my hands on them easily. All of that music was on my iPod Nano, but when I plug it in it only gives me the option to erase and sync, and I don't want to lose what's on my iPod but I would like to add new music that I've added to iTunes on my new computer to the iPod. Is this even possible?

it 's possible you just have to change your sync option from automatic to manual
the way to do this is the do the following
-open iTunes while ipod is connected
-if you get the message to erase and sync just click cancel
-on the left hand side of the iTunes window click on your device in the devices section
-in the ipod summary page go to the bottom of the page and choose "manually manage music"
-click apply and now any new music you want to sync you just drag the music from the library section and drop it onto the ipod in the devices section in iTunes
hope this helps:)
ps: this is only a temp fix but if you want something more then just a work around just post back

I NEED HELP DESPERATELY!!!!!!!!!
Dell Inspiron Windows 2000

Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes (iTunes 7.0.2.16). To find the version of iTunes you have open iTunes, click Help, then About iTunes. If this does not work then follow the following instructions:
For iTunes Technical support please call 1-800-APL-CARE
or
Another problem might be that your service pack of Windows 2000 is not the latest version (Windows 2000 Service Pack 4).
I would recogmend getting Windows XP, many advantages over Windows 2000. Especially security and looks wise.

Going from ipod mini to nano

Silly basic ?? like will my itunes library transfer from my mini to my nano?

"will my itunes library transfer from my mini to my nano?"
If you have the songs in iTunes then your new iPod will load those up. However if the songs are only on the Mini then you would have to return them to your computer, you can't transfer directly from one iPod to another.
