No more iPod??

I recently had my 80gb iPod stolen. So, I went to the store and bought a new one, only to find, there are no iPods that are compatable with OS X 10.3.9 any more? Is this possible? There is nothing I can do to access my music? I am out of the US for the next 3 months so I don't want to buy a new computer, and have no way to upgrade my operating system...I want to cry! Should things remain compatable?

Hi deggie, you're right, my post does seem confusing.
The way I read the Macintosh requirements for 7.5 at the iTunes download site, which I quoted, is this way:
1. If you are running Panther, it must be 10.3.9
2. If you are running Tiger, it must be 10.4.7 or later,
3. If you are running Leopard, you are fine.
Maybe now that the thread is on a better forum, someone else can set me straight.

Apple, Create a 120GB or more IPod Touch

Can you create a 120GB or more IPod Touch?

More iPod/iTunes Issues...

I've read posts from a few other people who have had problems with their iPod declaring itself full eventhough it isn't and I've seen the 'restore your iPod' tip in each thread. I gave this a try (seeing as I'm having the same issue) to no avail. My iPod currently has 687 items on it (this is after A LOT of deleting to get the iTunes library to fit) and is at 3.66 GB.
Given that minis are supposed to hold 1,000 songs how can I be full and so far from that number? Anyone have any ideas why? Or ways to help me tweak my iPod or iTunes so I can get everything loaded?
Any help is appreciated!

"So what's the best option?"
There is no "best" option, it's what suits you best. Apple would recommend you use the AAC format, and I would choose 160kbps as the bitrate. But that's just me. A bitrate less than that compromises sound quality to my ears, but you may not notice any difference between that and a bitrate of 128kbps. If you don't, then use the lower bitrate, and you'll get more songs on your iPod.
From my own point of view, I don't buy into this "AAC sounds better than mp3" mantra that many people preach here on the forums.
Don't let anyone tell you what to use. Use your own ears to decide what's best for you.

More iPod space.

I need help finding out how to get more space on my iPod touch so i dont have to keep deleting music and videos i bought, im running out of space on my iPod for stuff, it is an 8g one, but it only lets me use 5g. and please dont tell me about this iCloud stuff, becase by the look of iCloud it seems that it is only a backup plan if you brake you iPod, Please someone help me with this.

Open itunes.
Connect ipod.
Look at the bottom of the itunes screen for the capacity bar. Where is the memory being used?
You cannot make the ipod have any more memory.However, if somehting is taking up space that should not be, you can remedy that.

2.1 Update Broke more iPod accessory compatibility

When I got my iPhone 3G I knew there were problems with existing iPod accessories. So when buying a new head unit for our car we went to the store and tried them all out with the phone and a cable.
We purchased a unit that allowed the iPhone to be controlled through the head unit. The sound would mute (fade out) beautifully when calls were received (and the audio sent to the appropriate in-car bluetooth unit) and then fade back in when the call was done.
The unit worked with a USB cable and so wasn't prone to the "power on the firewire pins" problems that a lot of other accessories had.
As of the 2.1 firmware update, the head unit can no longer work with the iPhone. It simply attempts to connect constantly. Never actually connecting.
FAIL.

2.1 seems to be causing more problems that fixes man
All my accessories no longer work on this phone
And I refuse to buy all new ones.
I sure hope Apple addresses this problem with the 2.1 Operating System ceasing use with accessories.
I got a replacement Iphone on the way, maybe I will get lucky and it will have the 2.0.2 OS on it. Crossing my fingers man
Applecare wasn't helpful at all with this problem either.
The tech did say they are getting alot of complaints over the Apple DEV team killing off accessories with this OS Update to 2.1
What have you tried to get urs back working???
I did a reset as well as clearing all data, a full restore
Nothing
Only thing to fix this is JB the Phone back to the older OS.
And we shouldn't have to do this being consumers.

More iPod Weirdness......

Hi,
I posted the other day concerning problems of waking the iPod. I usually have to force sleep and then wake before a selected song will play.
I did a restore and it was no avail, the problem still occurs but I have encountered further "symptoms" or clues. First it seems to only do this when using in my car with a cassette adaptor. Could this mess with it's head? I also noticed that the plug of the cassette adaptor is a a bit looser and sometimes works it's self loose resulting in lost fidelity of sound.
Part 2 Weirdness
When I plug it into my Powerbook it used to go straight to "do not unplug" with slashed circle icon. Now it does that initially but will revert to just the large "charge" battery icon. When I "wake" it, it goes to the menu as if not plugged in. It will then go back to the charge battery then go to sleep/dark screen. iTunes recognizes and I can make changes via iTunes. Not too odd but it didn't do this till the restore.......
Weird little gadget....
Warren
PS ALL software is current and no issues elsewhere.

Safari preferences and Click To Flash have nothing to do with it, so deleting or removing those won't solve the problem. If I were you, I'd download the 10.6.2 Update and reinstall that, then Repair Disk Permissions and then restart Safari to see if the problem continues.

Adding two more ipods to one computer

My daughter and I currently have I pods. When I got mine I was told to make a new user on the computer for my library (don't dare want my music mixed in with hers). Having the two users has worked well. I recenly moved our itunes (and hopefully libraries too...another thread) over to an external hard drive with each of our names. My twins 16th birthday is Friday. I am considering getting them each a nano. My question is do I need two more users on the one computer? OR, can I set it up to have theirs on the external with their names?
I hope that makes sense to someone!
Thanks in advance!

Each user account will maintain a separate library as you know. All users can use the same physical storage location. I recommend doing that, that way if one wants a song the other has all they have to do a use the add file or add folder option.

More Ipod Video Problems

Greetings,
After reading these threads all night I guess that the ipod update 1.1 doesn't seem to user friendly. Several solutions involve rolling the update back to 1.0 using the disk that came with the ipod. In the event that the disk gets lost, where would one be able to get the 1.0 update? Any help would be appreciated.

The older iPod updates are available in the Downloads section. Just scroll through the list until you find it. It will be bundled with an older version of iTunes as well.

More iPod madness

Since the IOS upgrade, the iPad app periodically becomes "out of sync". For example, I'll tap "Big Me" by Foo Fighters and "Big Me" will show in the Now Playing, but a completely different cover art appears AND an entirely different song starts playing that's unrelated to either the song I picked OR the cover art displayed.
Going to task manager and terminating the app then restarting fixes this for a bit, then it starts again. I've already tried reloading my entire library but since it's more than 6,000 songs it takes a REALLY long time and I'd rather not have to go through that again. Any advice?

Even more Ipod problems

I have had my ipod for almost a year I got a new 30gig video last christmas, I love it for the most part. As soon as I installed 1.2 I got all kinds of problems at the moment I am trying to restore my ipod. It never messes up in the same place restoring but it ends up giving me an error message.Before I tried restoring it, the ipod would freeze while playing music sometimes 30 songs into a playlist sometimes 8 or before it even starts playing. My ipod is a paperweight now since it erased when restoring but gives me an error message when trying to put the stuff back on it. I know there are like 20 other posts about this very thing but I had to vent on the subject. sorry people

It never messes up in the same place restoring but it ends up giving me an error message.
what does the error message say, deskins? include error message numbers if you're getting any.

How do I create more than one ipod account on one computer

I have an eighty gig ipod and just recently bought a Clip and want to sync both to my music is it possible. If not how do I create two accounts on the same computer?

If you are adding a second iPod for your own use you don't need two accounts. Just connect your new iPod (by Clip I presume you mean an iPod shuffle) to your computer and follow the on screen instructions to register and name it and you can choose whatever setting you like to sync it. iTunes will recognise each device that you add and they will have their own settings.

Multiple ipods on same pc?

I have 3 ipods on the same computer. how do I set them up so they each have their own itunes library - i.e. so they don't necessarily share songs? It's a problem because they have different gb's. my running ipod has only 8 gb, my home ipod has 160, and itouch 16 gb. I now have more than 8 gb music in my library, and thus running ipod doesn't have room for my playlists.

If you particularly want to have separate libraries you can use that method if you wish. To create or access a second (or more) library, hold down the Shift key in Windows when launching iTunes. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to the other Library.
Note: You can only have one Library open at a time and iTunes will default to the last library opened if you don't use the keyboard command to choose one. The new library will be empty until you add content to it. To get back to your original library you need to close iTunes and open it again while holding down the shift key, this time choose to open an existing library and navigate to its location. Multiple libraries can prove tricky when using multiple iPods, if you don't use the keyboard command you can risk syncing to the wrong library: Using multiple iTunes libraries -Windows
You can mitigate the risk by switching off auto-sync and sync the iPod yourself after you are connected. Open iTunes first and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box "Prevent iPods and iPhones from syncing automatically" and choose Ok. Then connect your iPod.
