Operating system/iPod troubles

I have an iPod video that is formatted on a mac. Unfortunately, my Mac recently crashed and I have no way of restoring it. For this reason I cannot use my iPod unless I connect it to one of my windows computers. Is there any way that I can connect my iPod to a windows computer and extract my songs and files before I have to restore the iPod? If not is it possible to restore the iPod and extract any of the files on it (my iTunes library is stored on the iPod in the disk storage sector)?
Gateway Windows XP

I highly recommend XPlay, it is easy to use and they have a trial version if you do not need it permanently. Try this link:

GP60 operating system installation trouble

Afternoon.
Im having some trouble installing Win7 Pro on my new GP60 which does not currently have an operating system.
I turn it on and get the message:
Secure Boot Violation
Invalid signature detected. Check Secure Boot Policy in Setup.
Ive had a root round in the setup but am wary about modifying stuff and unintentionally breaking it forever.
Can anyone throw me a bone?

Go into the bios and disable secure boot.

Operating system Ipod classic to Ipod video

Do you know if it will be a update for Ipod Video 30-60-80 GB?
Because the new system and cover flow for Ipod Classic are so beautiful.
Sorry for my English
Thanks
Ha, what is the music in the publicity for the Ipod Touch in the Keynote?
I love them ( Keynote, 47:05 )

I don't think they will update it. Neither for the nano(ha! obviously).
If the classic was a complete update to the 5.5G video, they would've made updates available, like what they did with the early version of the video(w/o the search featurette).
But no, the classic has new thinner hard drives and different interface so I doubt they will release an update.

You may be able to download the last compatible version by:
Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

HT1386 I just reinstalled my windows operating system and decided to put on windows 8. After loading all of my music back into a freshly installed itunes, my 4th gen ipod is not recognized by itunes. My 1st gen ipod nano works with no problem. Help!

reinstalled my windows operating system and decided to put on windows 8. After loading all of my music back into a freshly installed itunes, my 4th gen ipod is not recognized by itunes. My 1st gen ipod nano works with no problem. I can eliminate any problems with the cable and connection.
I've stopped and started the service, and also have performed cold reboots.
Nothing seems to have helped the situation.
Help!

See:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
Have you tried on another computer to help determine if you have a computer or iPod problem?
The iPod Classic uses different drivers than the Nano

HT1678 How do I synch/download photos from my iPod classic to my computer, which has a Windows operating system? Thanks.

I am trying to download photos from my iPod to either an external hard drive or my computer, which has a Windows operating system. The iPod should function like an external hard drive, right? My photo files/computer/hard drive were damaged. Can I put my photos on the iCloud, and then save on external drive? Not sure how to o this either. I lost a few years of baby photos. Thanks for any help!

iTunes syncing to iPods (that are not iPod touch) mostly goes one way, from computer to iPod. For photos, at the time you synced the photos to the iPod, there is a setting that you needed to have enabled in iTunes if you later want to recover them from the iPod. This setting is on the iPod's Photos tab in iTunes (where you set up photo syncing). There is a checkbox for Include full-resolution photos.
IF that checkbox was checked, you can Enable disk use on the iPod's Summary tab, and find the full-res photo files in the Photos folder on the iPod. Otherwise (if setting not checked), when iTunes syncs the photos to the iPod, iTunes converts the images to a very low-resolution version that is optimized to fit the small iPod screen and stores the image data in a single database file (to save storage space). There may be third-party software that can extract separate photos from that database file, but the resulting photos will look bad blown up to computer screen size.

You are referring to OFFICE 2010, not Windows XP or 7.
And which version of Windows do you have?
NEVER begin before you have a backup, ideally one you have tested and know works.
You don't really install Boot Camp, the Assistant is a partition tool utility.
You may just want Office 2008 for Mac.
If you need Office for Windows, perhaps run Windows in a VM like Parallels or Fusion.
Buy some backup drives and start using TimeMachine for one backup, then weekly backup with SuperDuper.
IF there is now a partition for Windows, all you need is to buy Windows, and I would recommend Windows 7 Home Premium (retail) which is about US$149.
Has nothing to do with free space. Office 2010 isn't to boot from. In fact, you can copy the disc to a folder (1.25GB) and run SETUP from there.

HT4623 I have an iPod with iOS 4.2.1 and would like to up date version 5. The pc I normally sync with has XP operating system. So I can't up date to iTunes 10. And my iPod doesn't show the software update button shown in the article. What can I do?

You cannot update it if you can't get the latest version of iTunes. Actually, the latest version of iTunes will run in XP if you have Service Pack 2. Also, you posted in the iPad forum, and your profile shows you have an iPad, but in your post, you say it is an iPod. Is it an iPad or an iPod?

My computer has had a new operating system put on Windows 7 but I did not de-authorise my old computer which was Windows Vista and now I cannot sync my Ipod Classic as it keeps saying I have exceeded my maximum of 5 computers being authorised.

My computer has had a new operating system put on (Windows 7) but I did not de-authorise my old computer which was Windows Vista and now I cannot sync my Ipod Classic as it keeps saying I have exceeded my maximum of 5 computers being authororized. I tried doing this via my account in the Itunes Store but it still won't allow me to do this. Can anyone help?

Contact Apple customer support, they can reset your authorizations.

I reinstalled my computer's operating system. How do I transfer music from my Ipod to my music library? It transfered some, but not all my music. I authorized the computer, but it did not help.

The sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases.
The ipod is not a backup device.
You need to copy everything back using your backup copy.

Since I downloaded the new operating system to my iPod touch I can no longer update my Apps or download new ones. My password is recognized but the download process is immediately interrupted when I touch update (all) or download.

Since I downloaded the new operating system (6.1.3) to my iPod touch I can no longer update my Apps or download and new Apps. My password is recognized but when touching the update (all) button or download, the screen immediately reverts to the earlier screen and no updating or downloading occurs.

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of the Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
