New iTunes 10 took away auto syncing for PDFs from podcasts?!

You might as well make this a sticky since I've answered my own question:
The autosyncing of PDFs to iBooks has been changed. You now have to select your PDFs and put them to the "book" selection under media selection. I guess you can make a smartlist to find your PDFs so you can find them quickly to change their media type.

Ok Apple why did you have to break something that was working perfectly to begin with? None of the PDFs can be synced to my iPhone now even though it says it is. This is just ******* ignorant that you had to go and change something yet again!
Now I've got to figure out a good way to get these PDFs from the podcast folder into either my AirSharing or Stanza apps so I can read them again.
Does anyone have a good idea about how to do this, preferably automatically?

  • Tried to sync iPod Touch, noted "new" iTunes. iPod won't sync ("iTunes is unable to load data class information from Sync Services"). Tried the fix, but iTunes hangs when I try to open Preferences.

    Just tried to download new audiobooks to my iPod Touch 3, and noted new iTunes. iPod won't sync ("iTunes is unable to load data class information from Sync Services"). Tried to Reset Sync History per Support Article, but it didn't work. My purchased audiobooks are also gone from my iTunes Library.  Any fix, or is my best bet to uninstall new iTunes and reload earlier version??

  • My 6th Generation Nano Shuts down my Thinkpad, I've tried uninstalling iTunes, turning off auto sync'ing and restoring my ipod, but every time I plug in my iPod, my whole pc goes blue and then reboots in safe mode. Please Help. Thanks.

    Hello kidmango,
    I am going to have to agree with planb77. Look into other drivers in your computer causing the issue, not just the nano's drivers.
    It is possible that security software is the culprit. Use this:
    iTunes: Troubleshooting security software issues
    You may have to restore your computer to a previous point. From before the issue started. Contact computer manufacture or Windows for steps, or do a search with a search engine.
    I would test the ipod on a known good computer to see if its the ipod is the issue. My gut says no. You can set a reservation at an Apple Retail Store. Apple.com/retail .You can also test a known good ipod on your computer.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT1386 In the new iTunes where is the sync options?  I used to see an icon.

    In the new iTunes where is the sync options?  I used to see an icon on the left side while the sync was happeneing, then click on it to make changes.

    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar and Control+B to show the Menu bar
    To sync to your iPod go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing and follow the instructions.

  • I just buy a new iphone 4S, i wanna sync my data from 3GS to new iphone but i forget the password for the 3GS

    i just buy a new iphone 4S, i wanna sync my data from 3GS to new iphone but i forget the password for the 3GS

    Connect your 3GS in recovery mode and restore, you'll get the option to reset the passcode during this process:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore and iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

  • HT1918 why do i have to create a new itunes account because I moved to Canada from the U.S.?

    why do i have to create a new itunes account because I moved to Canada from the U.S.?( My current account won't let me change my address to canada so my billing address for account is incorrect, making it impossible for me to buy anything). Will it affect what I am able to put on my device i.e. already downloaded apps, music, etc?

    How do I switch my 6th generation over to my new iTunes account and put all my songs from my iPhone onto it?

    The iphone is not a backup/storage device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a abckup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • Why is the new iTunes make it so hard for me to manage my own music

    As a standard everyday user and rather big music fan with a libary filled with 100's of gb's of music this new itunes is a downgrade for someone like myself who rather manage and organise my music. I don't care about bold album images and the terrible viewing options. i care about simple, easy and useful ways of listening and managing my own music.
    The fact that as soon as the update was completed, the status and side bars where hidden makes it look to me like apple are trying to turn itunes into an app instead of creating a strong program that alows management and customisation.
    The best feature for anyone that itunes HAD was display duplicates and they took that away for what?
    Is there anyway to downgrade to itunes 10???

    If you want to get most of the old look/feel of iTunes back, then choose "View" from the menu, and select "Show sidebar". 

  • Streaming New iTunes Library without original synced iTunes library connect

    I was wondering if the Apple TV won't let you stream a new iTunes Library if the original Synced iTunes library isn't connected. Does anyone know if this is true?
    I've been trying for quite some time now to stream a new iTunes library, but the apple tv never shows up in iTunes. No Devices at all. Search for Apple TV's is checked. Nothing shows up under it. All ports are open.
    Thanks
    Dave

    What if the host computer is the same but you use a different iTunes Library? I have the bulk of my music on a network share (mirrored RAID). I would be willing to relocate the library to the ATV if it had backup features or if it allowed more music on the ATV than lives on the laptop. But neither appear to be the case. I guess the ATV is NOT a true digital media hub though it has the potential to be. You can't even subscribe to podcasts "on the ATV itself" which seems an obvious feature to offer.

  • New itunes 11.1.1 Version for Windows Vista

    I downloaded the new iTunes Version, I cannot open it as it gives me "The iTunes Library .itl cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the
    "iTunes folder" in the "Music" folder". I unistalled the program and re-installeded 2 times; followed the iTunes support advise of deleting the SC info.sidd and SC info sidb; restarted the computer and stil lhave the same error. I tried following instructions from a previous post here but, I cannot find the Choose Library option to see if it works once I locate the .itl files.
    Any suggestions?? The previous update about a month ago, took all of my music -with the exception of the latest purchased files--off. The library was gone. Then before this update last week, it would not transfer any of the recently purchased music from my iphone to the ipod once it downloaded to the itunes.
    Any advise is greatly appreciated.

    I use a utility called ByeTunes that removed Itunes completely of my pc "It's free"       and got a good down load of Itunes.a few weeks after they correct the upgrade.LOL

  • Warning!  Songs were removed from iTunes Library after installing new iTunes and iPad/iPod Sync

    I purchased the iPad 2 yesterday, updated my itunes software, and itunes messages indicated that it would not allow certain songs to be included in my library any longer since these were not purchased from iTunes.  Many of the songs were from CDs that I stored on this library for several years.  Only after I upgraded iTunes with this new iPad was my music removed.  Luckily I still have my music on my iPod, but my iTunes library on my laptop contains only the music I have purchased from iTunes with the last 18 months.  Weirdly, except for one particular song that iTunes said was not purchased from them, but it was part of an entire album purchase from iTunes.  Also, all of the movies I purchased from iTunes were also removed. I am not able to sync any movies onto my iPad. 
    I restored the iPad a second time, reinstalled the itunes and have the same result.  All of my older archived music is gone from the iTunes library. 
    Warning, if you want your music, back it up before installing the latest iTunes particularly if you have the new iPad 2.

    Hmm, it is only very recently (about 6 months ago I think) that the policy on Music changed. Prior to that you would be routinely reminded to back up all purchases (immediately after the successfully completed download), unless of course you ticked an option not to be reminded again. The change in policy (in our favour) would have been noted in the small print that neither you or I read when upgrading iTunes, though we say that we have.
    Again I'm still not certain if audiobooks are excluded from both "Music" and "Books". One would hope that they belonged to one category or the other in respect of redownloading. In the past, in the event of an absolute disaster, fatal hard-drive crash, fire etc. some users have been able to prevail upon the charity of the iTunes store staff who would occasionaly grant a second, but never a third, download of past purchases.
    The restictions on different types of media are ultimately imposed by the rights holders, not Apple. It is in Apple's interests to offer the same terms as their competitors, so my guess is that nobody currently offers unlimited repeat downloads of movies. Certainly the unique codes you get on some DVDs/Blu-Rays are one-time only.
    Backup all (or at least the non-replaceable parts) of your library with this User Tip.

  • Downloaded new itunes, but can't sync to new ipad mini?

    I went to iTunes to download the latest version. I'm assume it worked however my new iPAD mini can't sync, saying I need to download the latest version of iTunes? How do I know that the download worked? iTunes says "Thanks for downloading the latest version".  Thanks for the help

  • Auto sync for all accounts?

    Under Settings > Mail > Auto Sync, I have selected Every 15 minutes. I assumed that this would sync ALL of my accounts and ALL of their subfolders, every 15 minutes. It seems that it only syncs the last active folder in the last active email account. This is not at all what I was expecting. Since Auto sync is a general mail setting, it would be very misleading to have it only act on the last active account and folder.
    Is this how it was intended to work? Is there something wrong with how I set this thing up?
    Any help here would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hallo Michael,
    What you describe is actually exactly how Skype Manager works:
    You start with purchasing Skype credits on the Skype Manager group account and set up the manager account to auto-top up on low balance.
    You can then enable members of the Skype Manager group to receive credits from this manager credits pool and have them set up individually for auto-top up from that source as well
    See also this FAQ article: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA633/what-is-aut​o-recharge-in-skype-manager-and-how-does-it-work

  • IBook cannot auto sync revised PDF file

    I have revised a PDF file in my MacBook.  But iBook do not sync the updated file to my iPhone and iPad.  Anyone can help?  Thanks.
    julius

    Some more information. The PDFs from outside world can transfer to iPad over USB connector without problem.
    When I opened iTunes, clicked iDevice on the left side, go to Books tab on the right side,  I can only see the PDF from apple store. Then I go to the Books heading under iDevice on the left side, I can see all PDFs in the list including those from outside world.
    When I go to Books heading under Library, where shows PDFs on my mac in the right side, and drag an apple PDF from there to the iDevice on the left side, I can see a  green "plus" sign along with the red number sign. Then the sync happens. But when I'm dragging a non-apple PDF, I didn't see the green "plus" sign, so I cannot sync it.
    I think this might be an intended design for iTunes. But then why it allows syncing over USB connector? Hope I can find some explanation for this.
    Thanks.
