"so why bother posting to me....so you can feel good about yourself in front of the rest of the ipod curious?"
No, I post to let you know that you are breaking the law and that you probably won't get much help here. Also, to let others who may have posted a response that they would be helping you steal.
"im a texan too and am offended by your judgements... "
You steal music... I find that offensive.

New computer issues and iTunes download ... HELP !!!

My old computer finally crashed and burned ... I had a friend install the old hard drive in my new computer as a slave storage device ... problem now is, every time I plug in my iPod I get a message saying there is another iTunes library already on this computer and apparently you can't have two (how selfish)
It wants me to erase the contents of my iPod and start over ... no can do, ... I worked WAY to hard to compile all my grooviest tunes ... please HELP !!!

You definitely don't want to do that, obviously.
There's an Apple help doc easily found that explains how to transfer your library and settings from your iPod to the new computer.
If you want to transfer from the old computer, I'm trying to figure out how to do that myself -- but via a backup from an external harddrive. Dig around the harddrive posts.

To all those having issues syncing their new iPod touch to iTunes:

Do me a favor and try downloading doubletwist from www.doubletwist.com. I was having issues with itunes telling me it couldn't sync music/videos/photos (but it could apps) with my new 32 GB ipod touch 3rd gen so I shipped it back to Amazon earlier this week.
Most other itune replacement software didn't support the new OS 3.0 and I didn't know how long they would take. I just got an update from doubletwist they now support the latest touch and iphones. I obviously can't try it out.
But if several people try this (make sure to check for latest version), and it allows them to transfer music/videos while Apple have their collective heads up their *****, I will reconsider purchasing it again. I love my new HTC Hero, but it just doesn't cut it as a replacement.
thanks,
Jonathan

Slowed my computer down to unusability, missing (or hidden so I couldn't find them) things I consider key features (tag editing, smart playlists, podcasts). Doesn't appear to do anything I can't already do with iTunes. The Amazon Downloader already adds any of my purchases to my iTunes library.
Oh, and it never recognized my Touch (3.1.2) so I don't know how it would have worked. Would it have synced? Or would I have been stuck with tediously dragging and dropping things?
Given what it did to my computer, I'm unlikely to spend much time trying to get it to work. Perhaps it works better on a Windows box but I don't think I want to subject my low horsepower netbook to it.
Best of luck.

I have just upgraded to Windows 8 and my scyning and upgrading my phone with new apple software fails, Itunes looses connection with the device (phone), cant backup the phone or download new software, is this an issues with Windows 8?

Hi, stig2013.
I would recommend the steps in the article below. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
If you are receiving an error message, find the exact error number that you recieved in the article below and process the steps.
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if you manually disconnect the device during the restore process. You can resolve this issue by using USB troubleshooting, using a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

Bought new 30gb do I have to upgrade to itunes 7?

Hey all, I currently have the older itunes installed and it works fine with my 1gb nano. I just ordered one of the new 30gb players and after hearing some of the horror stories regarding 7 I'm wondering if upgrading will be mandatory for the new ipod? I can live without gapless playback and I have no plans on downloading movies, so will it be possible to simply put my music on the new ipod with the older itunes? Thanks.

im pretty sure they do make u upgrade. i just used a ipod photo on my computer that had itunes 6 and it asked to upgrade...im guesung it wont work to its full extent w/o the update

How do I load music on my new ipod without using itunes?

I am having tons of problems with getting itunes to pull up on my computer. I believe that my computer has a pretty nasty virus in it and it is causing problems with many of my programs (internet explorer, norton, and other programs). I am having my computer worked on later this week so I hope to get the virus taken care of. I am aware of the many different virus cleaners and checkers that are free to me on the internet and I do plan on using them. But right now the issue is time. I don't have any. I am leaving tomorrow morning on a trip and would like to have my nice new 30gb ipod loaded up with some music that I already have my laptop to pass the time on the flight.
Again I do not need a pitch for using itunes....I know how cool it is and I plan on taking advantage of it as soon as I return and have time to fix my computer issues. I just need to know how to load what I already have on to my ipod.
When I connect my ipod via the USB cable and pull up that drive I see the files: Calendars, Contacts, and Notes. I am assuming that I need to create a "Music" file that I will then drag-and-drop the MP3 copies from my computer to the newly created file. Is this correct? If not....then what do I need to do?
Thanks for the much needed help.

Sorry jrock,
You can use iTunes files to load other mp3 players with music files but iPods don't function like other mp3 players. You can't just load mp3's onto an iPod and play them, you have to use iTunes.

Issues with iTunes Media Folder resetting to default location

This is my 1st post to the Apple Support Community (the problem I have is with iTunes, but I believe it also has to do with the way OS X Lion is setup and the way Networked Drives are mounted in it) ...so I hope I've posted this to the correct place. Thank you in advance for any help I'm going to get here. I have no expirience with Mac OS X's (coming from a Windows background) so please bear with me, but I am a S/W Tester by trade so I'd like to think I'm resonably IT literate.
ISSUE:
I have a problem with iTunes and my Media Folder resetting constantly - my Setup is a MacBook Air, with an Apple Time Capsule 2TB which is providing my Wifi Network.
I want to setup iTunes so that it will permenatly point to my Data Folder on the Apple Time Capsule, so that when I download purchases, synch iPhones, or rip Music it will end up on the Apple Time Capsule and not on the MacBook Air's SDD Drive
I though I had managed to do this, but after I shut down the MacBook Air, and then logged back in to rip some music, iTunes had repointed to the MacBook Air's SDD, and all the CD's i ripped were saved there instead of the Apple Time Capsule. So far I have done the following;
STEPS CARRIED OUT SO FAR:
1) Connected the MacBook Air to the Wifi Network provided by the Apple Time Capsule - I can see the Time Capsule in the Finder app.
2) Gone to GO MENU > LOCATE SERVERS and selected the top level DATA FOLDER on the Apple Time Capsule....I believe that I've managed to create an ALIAS (Shortcut?) that points to this, and it's on my Desktop.
3) Next I went to SETTINGS > USERS > and made sure that ALIAS (Shorcut?) to the DATA FOLDER on the Apple Time Capsule is always loaded up on startup for my UserID
4) Next, I found my iTunes folder, and MOVED it from the MacBook Air SDD to the Apple Time Capsule's HDD over the Wifi Network.
5) I then went to ITUNES PREFERENCES and changed the MEDIA FOLDER it pointed to, from the MacBook Air's SDD to the one on the Apple Time Capsule.
6) Then I logged out and shut down the MacBook Air.
7) I powered on the Macbook Air, and logged in, then ripped some music - I then found that iTunes had created a new iTunes Folder for my User on the MacBooks SDD and all the CD's I ripped had been saved there. Also under the ITUNES PREFERENCES menu, it looks like iTunes had reset the location of the MEDIA FOLDER...
I don't know if this is an issue with iTunes or not - I'm assuming it's a setup issue on my part, and that maybe I haven't created a permenant link to the Apple Time Capsule as I thought I had. If it helps I was attempting to do something similar to whats described in this YouTube video; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mA399lEXRTE
Thanks again for any help

if you really moved your entire iTunes folder, the next step needs to be launching iTunes while holding the option (⌥) key, clicking on choose library at the prompt, and selecting the iTunes folder you moved to the TC.
as for auto-mounting the TC's disk on startup, you might find this discussion interesting.

New Development after recent Itunes update

Hi everyone -- Installed the suggested update yesterday (Dec 21, 2010) without error. Later attempted to import a CD (yes it is a silver CD). This did not complete as expected rather ended with a system reset (soft boot). Entered iTunes and discovered part of the CD was imported but not all. Choose another CD and attempted to import. Same result. Discovered iTunes will import a number of tracks but not an entire CD. Everything was operating as expected prior to installing the update. Reinstalled the prior version but same result when attempting to import. Help!!
Thanks in advance. Ed

These are the Mac release notes for the latest itunes. It doesn't mention anything about importing...
Can you import using Windows Media Player?
Just make sure to turn everything off in WMP so it won't mess up itunes:

I'm having a huge issue with itunes locating my missing files..and it's too many for me to locate 1 by 1..It says I'm missing over 3,000 songs and They are all in my music folder..What can I do to fix this issue? I've looked at all the tutorials on youtube and none of it works.

2 HUGE Issues with iTunes Match that I am having...

Okay, so I have now had iTunes Match for one week and am having two MAJOR issues which I cannot seem to sort out. Apple is at least investigating the first, but unless anybody here has any suggestions I am out of luck on the second for now...
Issue # 1: Literally every song that was uploaded to iCloud because it could not be matched is freezing when attempting to download them to my iDevices (all high-quality to begin with, encoded at 256kbps AAC "iTunes Plus quality)
Say, for example, I wish to download an entire album. It will download each song one by one, but whenever it is finalizing the download on an uploaded song, the little progress wheel stops at about 11 o'clock. It then stays in that position and skips to the next song, repeating this process any time it hits an uploaded track. The end result is a partial album where I can play any songs downloaded from Apple's matched selection, and a whole bunch of progress wheels next to my songs I had to upload. I have tried deleting my iCloud and iTunes library, and then re-adding the entire collection, with no luck whatsoever
Issue # 2: Not quite a technical glitch like above, but rather a playback experience issue due to the fact that Apple likely has many different versions of the same album from country to country. Any matched Gapless albums (such as most live albums, Pink Floyd's discography, etc) end up skipping even though they are the Apple downloaded (matched) versions straight across the album. The volume also seems to vary from track to track as they skip, leading me to believe that it must pull the songs at random from one of likely many albums spread across Apple's worldwide iTunes stores. This is likely due in part to the fact that many albums have varying distributors across the world, resulting in a different set of AAC files for each distributor's release of the album. I'd like to say that the problem is isolated to one or two albums, but pretty much my entire collection suffers on at least a few songs
Any thoughts, opinions, suggestions or commiserators out there on these two problems???

(all high-quality to begin with, encoded at 256kbps AAC "iTunes Plus quality)
Reading this, I assume you mean they were imported into iTunes, then AAC copies were made and the originals deleted. If this is not how you produced the AAC versions, I may know at least part of the answer.
iTunes Match will allow some flavors of AAC to be matched/uploaded, but the uploaded files will not play. If they are part of an album where some songs were matched, when it comes time for them to play, playback will either stall, or skip forward until a matched track comes up.
I know this through personal experience. I identified two encoders that I used in Audacity to create AAC files that Apple let through, but simply would not play. My fix was to delete the offending files from my iTunes library and from the cloud, re-import to iTunes, make new AAC copies within iTunes, then start up iTunes match again. The new files uploaded and played just fine.

I recently bought a new computer and downloaded itunes but when i try to sync it, someone else's apple i.d. shows up and i don't know the password. I try to authorize my computer but it still won't let me

I recently bought a new computer and downloaded itunes onto it. When i sync my ipod it prompts me to authorize my computer
with the purchases that i've made, but when i try to do so, my apple i.d. is not what shows up and so my ipod won't sync any of my songs or apps. I have no idea who's username i'm seeing and i've never seen it before. That's the only thing that is stopping my ipod to sync, a password that isn't mine!! I am beyond frustrated and don't know what else to do, if someone can please help me i would be so appreciative you have no idea. Thank you so much

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

After getting a new desktop I downloaded iTunes and authorized my new computer and then de-authorized my old one, When I try to update my 5S it says my phone is not authorized and list my wifes email address as the account holder and not mine. How do I correct this. I am using Windows 8.1 . My wife has never had an iTuunes account

Hello Lakesidetom,
It sounds as though you are experiencing an issue with an Apple ID and authorizations. Based on your post, it sounds like you are familiar with the authorizing and deauthorizing process. The Apple ID in question (your wife's email) may be originating from the iPhone you are attempting to update. Is it possible that your wife created an Apple ID or iCloud account which is signed in on that iPhone? Below, I have included links to some resources that may help you determine if your wife has created an Apple ID:

How do I set up a new Apple ID and iTunes account for my daughter, but let her keep the current content of my iTunes account?

How do I set up a new Apple ID and iTunes account for my daughter's MacBook, but let her keep the current content of my iTunes account? (We currently share the same Apple ID and iTunes account). Hope someone can help... Thanks

Discussions on using purchases from multiple AppleIDs in one iTunes library - https://discussions.apple.com/message/19543804
As I mentioned earlier, the main time when this becomes an issue is if you need to do something involving associating a computer with a particular AppleID. Careful management of your collection should minimize this situation.
iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 - In connection with, "When you turn on iTunes Match or Automatic Downloads, or when you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID." "Your Apple ID can have up to 10 devices and computers (combined) associated with it. Each computer must also be authorized using the same Apple ID. Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days." - Additionally instructions for "Removing an associated device or computer from an Apple ID"
So the first account is really "yours" and you are setting her up with her own account? It helps to know this because if both are "hers" then there isn't an issue with her having full access to both accounts. If in 10 years she moves 2000 miles away and she is pretty much independent then you may not want her to have full access to your AppleID just so she can authorize a device.
