Put songs on iPod without going through iTunes

I have an older iPod - thisone and I want to convert it into mainly just audio books. I don't want to keep all those audio books on my itunes library and have already backed them up so I just want to go and drag them onto my iPod.
it shows up on my desktop as a drive, but there's 3 folders
calenders
contacts
notes
nothing else. How do I see the hidden files? would that work?

For windows pc's Photo albums:
1) Create a master sync folder on your pc with no photo files at the root level of the folder.
2) Create sub-folders within the master sync folder with the subfolders named what you want the ipad's photo albums to be named.
3) Place the photo files you want to sync in the appropriate subfolder within the master sync folder.
4) In itunes on the photos tab, select the master folder as the sync folder.
5) After syncing, each subfolder will be an album on the ipad with the proper photos contained there-in.

If deleting a note page from your note apps by mistake is there anyway to retrieve it without going through iTunes or icloud, is there a deleted bin that is installed where you could decide if you want to have it deleted for good or restored.

If deleting a note page from your note apps by mistake is there anyway of retreiving it without going through iTunes or iCloud. This is the new age of technology and there should be a deleted bin as in most computers or websites. There must be a way..

There is no undelete facility on the iPad, when you delete something then unless the app itself has an undelete option (which the built-in Notes app hasn't) then it is gone. If it was on the iPad when you last backed up then you could try restoring to the backup, but you would need to restore the whole iPad, you can't just do a single app.

Could you play a live stream from safari to apple tv without going through itunes?

could you play a live stream from safari to apple tv without going through itunes?

There is no way to stream Safari content, with or without iTunes, to your AppleTV.
The only way would be to use a mirroring feature given that you have an AppleTV 2nd gen or newer and a 2011 or newer MBP running mountain lion.
If not, some third party software like AirParrot can also gives you way to mirror your MBP display on the TV.

Saving songs on iPod without syncing w/ iTunes

I have songs that I want to keep on the iPod that are not in the iTunes.
I had the iPod set for syncing, but now I don't want it to sync.
How do I set the iPod for manual mode without losing the songs that will be lost when I hook up the iPod?
The syncing happens too fast to make the changes before any loss.

Hold the keys down and then connect the iPod. iTunes will open and you'll see the iPod icon in the source list, give it half a minute if you are really worried and you can let go. Another thing you can do is connect to a different computer. You will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. You can also use the method described in this article: How to keep iTunes from automatically updating your iPod

You've posted this in the "Mac OS X Technologies > iSync" forum.
iSync has nothing at all to do with iPods or Windows.
Please try one of the iTunes for Windows or iPod forums.

Can I add Podcasts to my iPod without going through the iTunes Music Store?

I want to add some spoken word files to my iPod and store them in the Podcast section. They are not radio broadcasts and are not available through the Music Store, still there must be some way to file them where I want them. Downloading from the Music Store can't be the only way to file things under Podcast, or can it...?

I'm not terribly familiar with podcasting but you can put podcasts on your iPod from sources other than iTMS. From memory, you have to add these manually. Have a look at the tutorial: Podcasting Tutorial

Transfer photos from iPhone 4 to iPad without going through iTunes

Can I transfer photos from my iPhone to iPad without needing to use iTunes to sync?

You have a Mac, so essentially iPhoto (or Aperture, depending on what you have) stores and organizes photos. I find this very useful, because although 99.9% of my photos are from a real camera, I do occasionally take photos with my iPhone, possibly more now that I have an iPhone 4.
iTunes, as annoying as it can be at times, let's you organize what photos are moved to the iPad and iPhone. It really is easy, even for a rank beginner.
Apple also keeps a closed system for these products. Again, annoying at times, but mostly it works. You should read stories about the Android system where apps work or don't work depending on seemingly random movements of the planets. There might be something out there if you look hard, but you'll be frustrated with what happens.
I'm very happy how I control photos with Aperture, iPhone, iPad and iTunes in combination. Switch out Aperture and iPhoto, and you'll be fine too.
But, if there's a particular reason why you don't like the combination, drop a note here, and we'll try to help out.

Is there a way to download a file into an ipad without going through itunes?

I am trying to do it in a similar way to that of an Android device. I would like to have someone with an Apple device scan a QR code which pulls a zip file on to their device and then from there (without using iTunes) extract and load the file into an app already installed on the device.
Is this possible? What is the fastest, easiest, most effecient way to do this?

Is it possible to restore your iPod without plugging into iTunes?

Hello - having great difficulty doing anything to my iPod through iTunes. Is there anyway in which I can restore my iPod without going through iTunes?
(iTunes already re-installed)
Thanks

Thanks for the response.
Ok - what happens..
1)iPod appears to work fine as a standalone player.
2)iTunes works perfectly without the iPod connected
3)Put the two together and it's **** on earth!...
I can't sync or make any changes through iTunes, without iTunes freezing (and that includes the restore iPod option.)
I may not actually need to restore my iPod - however the other option that comes to mind is throwing the damed thing out the window....so any help gratefully received..
