I just purchased a song with the new itunes 11 but cannot figure out how to get it onto my ipod shuffle. I don't see the autofill from purchase. Any help would be great. Thnks.

What you may need depends on what the problem is. So what exactly is the problem, what are the symptoms that you are experiencing?
By the way, the iPod Classic does not use iOS.

I see there is no way to change the security questions i set up when I first purchased my ipod touch. Software takes you in circles with no help

I see there is no way to change the security questions i set up when I first purchased my ipod touch. All the answers I get do not work. Can't by another device until I get around this issue.

Reset Security Questions
Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
Manage My Apple ID
Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
If all else fails:
1. Go to: Apple Express Lane;
2. Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
3. Then choose iTunes Store;
4. Then choose Account Management;
5. Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click
      Continue;
6. Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
7. Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would
      like your security/challenge questions reset;
8. Click Send/Continue.
You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
In the event you are unsuccessful then contact AppleCare - Contacting Apple for support and service.
Another user had success doing the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
      tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
      "done", in the upper right corner
c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
      Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
      should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
      security questions.
d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
      selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
      should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
      questions.
It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
Good Luck friends!

I just purchased an ipod shuffle (4th gen.) and I have been working trying to get it running for hours. I have followed all manuals and tutorial help. When I pull up my device manager, it shows an Ipod, but won't let me download the Usb driver.

I just purchased and IPod Shuffle (4th gen.) and can't get it running. I have gone through all of the help available. It shows up in my device manager, but needs a USB driver. It will find it online, but says an error has occurred and access is denied instead of installing. I bought this for a last minute trip with teenagers and I have spent hours on this. I am running Windows 7 and have tried disabling the firewall.
Help, please.

Transferring purchases from ipod to itunes 8.0 hangs

I am trying to transfer purchases from my ipod to a new PC. I am using itunes 8.0 and the transfer starts but then hangs. The initial transfer is a movie from the ipod (perhaps relevant, perhaps not) .. any ideas ? is there a known issue with transfering purchased movies from the ipod to itunes ?

I throw my hands in the air, 446 U2 songs gone....gone where...who knows...why?...because i clicked one button in itunes to transfer purchases from ipod to pc...!!! Sorry I'm really really REALLY annoyed...I bought this back in February 2005...and now it's gone...I don't appear to be able to download it again, I can't even find it on the website....but there were other albums also gone...!
Does anyone have any hints suggestions before I smash the Ipod to bits :O
I searched HD for songs but no joy..heart breaking..to say the least..(regardless yeah I should have had a backup..) but the transfer should have transferred them somewhere...I guess.

Considering purchase of IPod 7th generation

I'm considering on purchasing an IPOD Touch 7th Generation but was told it was very sensistive to breakage. Amazon has a bunch of protective covers for generation 4 IPODs. Will the IPOD 4 case fit the IPOD Touch 7th Generation unit?

Hey Godhall, If your going for an iPod 5, (First released in 2012), I have one also, make sure you get a 32G or 64G model, they have both a front and rear camera, the 16G only has a screen side camera (good for Selfies, not much else). These are may favorites for cases; Griffin Survivor, Griffin Survivor + Catalyst, Lifeproof fre, Otterbox seems OK, I just didn't care for it. Of the cases listed they offer good shock, drop protection, will at least minimize broken screen issues, but the right wrong fall and the screen can still crack, all will protect against dirt, dust scratches, and weather, wind driven rain and snow. The Griffin Survivor and Otterbox are waterproof, will keep most water spills rain, snow off your iPod, but drop it the pond or toilet (happens a lot just read these forums) your iPod will get wet. The Griffin Survivor + Catalyst and Lifeproof fre are watertight, no water will get in if your drop it in the toilet, provided the seals are in working order and closed. If you do get a 16GB model the cases will still fit, you just have a port or window you don't need. Something else, all the windows on these cases are plastic, will scratch, But if you buy universal disposable screen protectors, cut then to fit the case's window and apply. When it get's beat up peel it off and replace with a fresh one, will not interfere with operation, and it's cheaper than replacing the case every few months. Hope this helps, Cheers.

Laptop crashed and how to transfer music from ipod back to laptop and won't transfer new purchases to ipod?

My laptop crashed about 2 days ago. I got it fixed and had to reinstall it. I had to reinstall itunes all over again. How do I transfer all my songs from my ipod including the ones that were from hardcopies and by hardcopies I mean cds I bought in real life and is on a disc. All of the songs are still on my ipod so how do I upload all of the songs and videos (purchases, music/songs from hardcopies/cds uploaded not bought from itunes, etc...?) How would I upload all of that back to itunes on my laptop? Another question is for some reason when I hook up my ipod to my laptop, I recently bought 23 songs about a day ago and it won't upload those purchases to my ipod, is it because I have all the hardcopies and downloads on my ipod that the itunes library doesnt have? Also, how would I sync my newest purchases to my ipod efficiently without deleting any of the hardcopies I uploaded before my laptop crashed?

phonefans is a spammer, ignore his posts.
If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
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 from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.

If I purchased an ipod shuffle in 2011, and I am wanting to get an ipod touch in a few weeks, would I be allowed to purchase one, or would I be told that I couldn't by a store?

What are the rules of purchasing an ipod?, Do you have to wait until your ipod won't charge anymore to get a new one?, I bought the most recent ipod shuffle in two thousand eleven, and it wasn't what I expected it to be, and I am planning on getting the ipod touch in a few weeks with my own money. What are the pros and cons of the ipod touch?, I have a friend who has the ipod touch and he says it is amazing!, also what is better the black player, or white player? What earbuds could I purchase?, The original ones that come with the ipods hurt my ears and they don't stay in well, also is it necessary to get a case, or should I just forget about it?, is facetime free or do you have to pay for it?. Is it necesary to have 32 gb?, or should I stick to 8 gb?

no, you have every right to buy an ipod, no matter how receant your old one. plus the company wants the money from buying an ipod. Pros and cons of ipod touchs are generally up to the user, but they are pretty cool. Black or white depends on your choice. Earbud wise, you could go for out of ear ones like headphones or even those ones with a removable tip. You WILL NEED A CASE for your ipod, as of they absorb shock if the ipod is dropped and prevents the thin glass screen from breaking. facetime is free as long as there is wifi. As to whether you want a 32gb or 8 gb is up to you, how much space do you want? What i will tell you about having an 8gb with apps, songs and movies it that it is actually really small. so it all depends on what you put on it. THERE are NO rules of purchasing an ipod.

Unable to load purchases to iPod

Unable to load purchases to iPod. I have 4 movies purchased. In iTunes, the movies are there. each movie has a small blue dot to the left of the check box, what is that?
I have iTunes to sync manually to the iPod, but still the movies will not load tot he iPod. Even when I apply setting, nothing transfers.
Since I had a hard time finding this, can someone (anyone) please e-mail me at: [email protected]
PLEASE HELP

Do you get an error message when trying to add the movies to your ipod?
You might try de-authorizing and reauthorizing your computer.
Then sync your ipod again.
Something else to try is to rebuild your itunes library.

I uninstalled itunes to fix some ipod issues, and now I tried to reinstall it but it says that it's already installed.

I uninstalled itunes to fix some ipod issues, and now I tried to reinstall it but it says that it's already installed. When I went to find the "icon" I can"t find it. When i looked in the download files I saw the downloads, but not the actual itunes "app". Please help thanks!

How did you uninstall it and what were your IPOD issues - that may help clarify the problem.

I have my iTunes on my PC and have an iPod Classic, I have just purchased an iPod touch and want to load all of my Itunes music onto it, how do I do this and not loose my library, I'm not very computer savvy.

You sync music the same way as on the Classic. What you sync to an iPod does not effect the iTunes library on your computer.

HT1430 I already own an iPhone & have purchased and iPod touch for my husband. How can I have a completely separate Apple ID for both of the devices?

I have purchased an iPhone 4s 2 years ago and recently purchased an iPod touch for my husband while he was abroad working. I used the same Apple ID when setting up the iPod touch but now I want to know how I can have two separate Apple IDs. One for his iPod touch and one for my iPhone?

Create a new ID and start using it.
You will not be able to transfer your existing purchases and updates will require knowing the password for the old ID.

My question is, when i bought my sons ipod I created the account with my email, the I purchased an ipod as well and used to same account. I want him to have his own account so he can't access my itunes money.

My question is, when I bought my sons ipod I created the account with my emai, then I purchased an ipod as well, so we share an account. I want him off of my account. How do you do that, he has his own computer.

His own password for what? You can only have one password for one account.
He can use your account for items and he can also use his own account. To purchase items with a different account you go to Settings>Store and sign out and sign into the other account.
To update apps you have to sign into the account the purchased them.
