Using old iPod Video games on new iPod Classic?

Hi all-
I bought several games for my old iPod Video (don't know what generation it was but it was about two years old). These games include Mini Golf and Zuma. My old iPod broke, so I recently purchased an iPod Classic. When I connected it to sync to my computer, these two games and iQuiz did not show up in the games tab of the iPod sync list. I have read things about older iPod games not working on newer models, but these games are still available from the iTunes store and are said to be compatible with the Classic. So my questions are:
1. Why do my older iPod games not work with my new iPod, though the same games are still available to be bought in iTunes and are said to be compatible?
2. Is there something I could do to make them appear in the sync list?
3. If I were to buy these games again from the iTunes store, would they work on my new iPod? Is there some kind of update that happened to them that render the old versions useless on my new iPod?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. Why do my older iPod games not work with my new iPod, though the same games are still available to be bought in iTunes and are said to be compatible?
The earlier releases of the games were not designed to be forward compatible to a newer iPod that hadn't been designed at the time they were written. The new versions currently available in the store are explicty designed to work on both the 5th & 6th gen. iPods and 3rd & 4th gen. nanos. They won't work on the iPod Touch or iPhone should you ever get one.
2. Is there something I could do to make them appear in the sync list?
No.
3. If I were to buy these games again from the iTunes store, would they work on my new iPod?
Yes.
Is there some kind of update that happened to them that render the old versions useless on my new iPod?
Yes, the iPod got updated making it incompatible will the older versions of the games.

Safari crashing frequently on new Intel MacBook-

My wife recently got a new Intel MacBook to replace her old G3 iBook. We used the setup/migration assistant to move her files and settings onto the new computer. Everything has been working beautifully with the exception of Safari.
Safari is crashing frequently. The crashes seem to be especially trigged by forum/discussion-board pages. I’ve read through these forums and tried all of the following with no success:
-- Reset Safari
-- Deleted the Safari preference file.
-- Run all of the system updates.
-- Created a new user account and tried Safari from there.
-- Used Disk Utility to repair permissions.
-- Deleted the Cookies and Cache files in the User Library directory.
-- Attempted to run the 10.4.6 Combo update. (The MacBook won’t let us install it, claiming “This volume does not meet the requirements for this update.” )
-- Used the provided OSX install disks to “upgrade” re-install the system.
...and still no luck. I assume that something bad must have been carried over or introduced with the setup/migration process.
We really, really hope not to have to start everything over from scratch with a complete clean install of OS X. Perhaps someone who understands the crash reports can make some sense out of this and give us some leads on what to try next: (click on links to see several of these crash reports)

The most frequent cause of Safari crashes in the new
intel systems has been Plug-ins that are not
Universal, i.e. not written for the Intel chip. Have
a look in either your Main or User Library>Internet
Plug-in folder for the possible culprit(s).
Thanks for the quick response!
Actually, we had already tried moving the Internet Plug-Ins plug-in folder to the desktop. (Sorry - I had forgotten to include that in my "things tried" list above.) That didn't seem to fix anything - but we'll try it again. I'll list the items in the plug-in folder in a while.

My ipod is about 8 years. Want to transfer music fron old ipod to new one. Can that be done ?

Hello try again
All your media should be in iTunes so you can sync using iTunes to get the music over. If you have any purchases from the iTunes Store you may transfer them to your iTunes library.

Old iPOD to new iTunes on new computer to new nano. Is this possible

I have an old iPOD and I have a new nano and new computer. I want to get music from old iPOD to new iTunes on new computer to new nano. Is this possible

Yes. You'll want to copy all the content from the older iPod back to your new iTunes library first. Once you have successfully copied and stored all of this content in your new iTunes library, you can set it up to sync to your new Nano.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

Sync old ipod to new macbook pro

how do i sync my old ipod and its library to my new macbook pro without losing music. I dont just want to transfer purchases but all my old songs. There doesnt seem to be an easy option to do this.

Correct, there is no Apple sanctioned option to get the music to your new computer from your iPod.
Instead, transfer your iTunes library from your former computer to your new computer.

Watching online video on a new Intel-MacBook

I am unable to watch online videos on my new MacBook. The windows media player alarm comes up telling me I don't have the right plug-in. I believe that is the Quicktime component add-on. This still doesn't work. How can watch online video (like cnn.com for example) on my Intel MacBook?

The intel flip4mac beta is no longer available so you can't use it.
Therefore install windows media player from http://www.mactopica.com
You could then force safari to open under rosetta and the windows media plugin should work.

New Intel Macbook pro or a PC laptop

Hello everyone. I currently have a 2003 Powerbook G4 Ti 1.0Ghz. It works greate. Now the problem is that I am in the Army and I use lots of military programs that only run on PC's. I have been using Virtual PC 7 to run some of them, but there are some that require a lot of memory and speedlike Falcon View and Performance planning software for Army helicopters. I am also separated from my family and currently use Skipe to do video conference with them. She has a PC laptop. So no Ichat there.
The question is, Are the new Intel laptop able to run Xp and Mac os X at the same time . Is that program Bootcamp really good. Can I start the laptop in Mac to use all my applications and games and then restart in PC mode to work with Pc software or talk to my family?
Do I need an external hardrive to operate in Xp? Or... should (as much as I dont want to) I get a PC laptop.
Also I currently have a lot of Mac applications, are those going to work with the intel chip or I need to get an intel version. Lots of money there.
Thanks in advance.
Gonzo

hi you can use bootcamp to start your macbook/macbook pro in windows xp/vista or mac os x. Or you can use a program like parallels which can run osx and windows side by side. AFAIK you don;t need an external hard disk to run windows - bootcamp just creates a virtual partition.
As for the mac ppc applications that you have - some may have intel (universal binary) upgrades or updates. It depends on the programs...some you'll have to pay for others might be free upgrades.
However, i currently use some old mac ppc software on my intel mac and in general it runs fine. I know that programs like photoshop for example do run slower on intel machines than ppc but it's marginal apparently. Basically non-intel software runs on intel mac's in an emulation called Rosetta which automatically enables tha applications to run.

Do check with the relevant software co.'s websites about their products and availability of UB (universal binary) version/updates.
I'd personally recommend a macbook pro. Beautiful machine. runs xp well from what i've seen. runs intel and non-intel mac software well. you can run os x and win xp simultaneously. And by the way, skype exists for mac os x - and it runs great - i talk to my pc friends using it...no problem.
Hope that helps

Moving files from old ipod to new ipod

I purchased a new generation 5.5 30g video ipod. How can I transfer all the audio books and photos and music from the old ipod back to itunes and then to the new ipod?
thanks

For all other non purchased music (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
Enable your iPod for disk use.
See: iPod Disk Use.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.
There is also CopyPod. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
If you copied photos to your iPod using the full resolution option, enable disk use, open your iPod in "my computer", open the photos folder then open the "full resolution" folder and drag the photos out of that folder to your desktop. For enabling disk use look here.
Disk Use.
If you only copied the photos as thumbnails, you can't do this so you'll need a program such as this one.
CopyPod Photo
Photos as thumbnails won't be of the original quality when copied back to your computer.
