Should I be able to listen to music from my iPod 5 on my car stereo?
I have a Pyle stereo in my car. I am having trouble listening to my iPod using the USB on the stereo. The Pyle support team says
It can't be done, that the USB is for mass storage devices. Isn't that what an iPod is? I am a little suspect of they're answer, especially after reading some posts. Can someone give me the scoop? Can I or can't I listen to my Ipod through the USB....PLEASE??
"that the USB is for mass storage devices. Isn't that what an iPod is? "
No. It is not what an ipod touch is at all.
You can only listen to it via the USB if your car stereo supports it. If it does not, then you cannot.
It sounds like your stereo does not support the ipod via USB

IPhone 4S/ BLuetooth/listening to music from my iPhone in my car
I'm looking a purchasing the Plantronics - Voyager Legend Bluetooth Headset - to go with my iPhone 4s running IOS 6.0.1. Here is my question...I currently listen to music from my iPhone in my car, and I use the earphone jack to connect it to the car stereo. My fear is that if I have the bluetooth headset paired up with the phone, my music will no longer go through my car speakers, but will rather go through my bluetooth headset. Can anyone clarify this issue for me, specifically....will I be able to still listen to music from my iPhone 4S through my car stereo, if a bluetooth headset is paired with my phone, but yet if a call comes through, that will route through the bluetooth headset.
Alternatively, is there a way I could turn the Bluetooth headset on for calls and off for music?
Thanks
Any suggestionsGood question. Because your iphone is connected with an AUX cable, the normal audio should run through there and I'd EXPECT that the calls should be routed to the bluetooth headset if one is connected.
In the case the music get's routed to your headset - you should be able to go to the 'music app' (whichever one you're using) and you SHOULD be able to switch the audio output (see below). Mine show "Apple TV" - but your bluetooth device would be displayed here as well - mine is just turned off at the moment. -

After a virus, I had to have my computer "wiped". I cannot seem able to get my music back to my computer from my iPod touch. Help please
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
Have you failed to do this?
The ipod is not a storage/backup device. It simply mirrors the selected content of your computer. The sync is one way - computer to ipod. The exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You may be able to purchase 3rd party software to extract other content ( not supported by Apple). -

Can I listen to music from my iphone 4 using an in-ear bluetooth set?
Hi,
I'm looking to buy an in-ear (mono) bluetooth device.
I would like to be able to listen to music from my iphone through the device.
Not looking for something fancy.
What specs do I have to look for? Version 2.0? A2DP? Any specific models recommended?
ThanksA2DP is a Bluetooth profile. If both Bluetooth devices have that profile, then they can share information in that way. See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_profile

Transferring music from the iPod to iTunes
I had been using a friend's computer for my iTunes because I did not have one of my own at the time. I put all of my music and bought all of my music onto that computer, and then sync'd it onto my iPod. Now I have my own computer and want to be able to transfer my music from my iPod to my iTunes library so that I can play the music from my computer as well. Is this possible? If so, how?
If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows. The procedure is a bit involved and it won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. This is just a selection, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, they are generally quite straightforward. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

PodUtil Mac and Windows Versions

If your iPod is set to update automatically take care when connecting back to your OWN computer and a different iTunes. 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. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync again. -
Will i be able to listen to music, watch videos and take pictures and sync with itunes without a sim in my locked iphone 5?
You will need a SIM to activate it. There is no way around that. The SIM does not have to be active, but it must be from the correct carrier if the phone is carrier locked. Once activated, it can be removed and used like an iPod touch, but if you ever have to restore or update iOS, you will need the SIM to re-activate it.

You can hear your music of your iPod from your car via Bluetooth or by a USB port (maybe located in your car) and connect it with the cable.
If your car doesn´t have does two things, you can do it by accesories: http://store.apple.com/us/search/Belkin-TuneCast-Auto-with-ClearScan?mco=Nzk5NTQ 1Ng# -
Why is it when I press on the music icon on the bottom it says ''you must be synced to the computer to listen to music''? I haven't been able to listen to music in a long time.

Thank you now how do I get the songs on to the flash drive?
Insert the flash drive into the other computer, and open it so it looks like a window. Highlight the songs you want in his iTunes, and drag them into that window.
That will cause them to copy onto the flash drive, and will not affect his library.
If you normally run iTunes in full-screen mode, make it smaller so that you can do the drag.
Then insert the flash drive into your computer. Find your Automatically Add to iTunes folder (it is inside the iTunes media folder) and drag the songs into it. -
Was able to transfer itunes music from external drive to computer, but they won't play. There are "!" marks next to all transferred songs and a message reads "Unable to locate songs". How do i get the transferred songs to play without having the external drive connected.
Select a single song with a broken link, press CTRL+I to Get Info, cancel when asked to locate the track and take a look at the Summary tab. Post back where iTunes is looking for the file. It begins file://localhost
Where is it really?
Please post back both paths so that I can make suggestions. Full paths please, exact spellings, you can replace your user name with <User> if needed.

hi i need help with my ipod nano i want to transfer my music from the ipod to the itunes so that i can be able to transfer the music to my ipad can you help me with that ?
You cannot use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store. However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do an Internet search on something like"iPod transfer," you should get some links. (The CNET article seems to be popular.)
Once the song files are on your computer's drive, you can add them to your iTunes library, and then sync your iPad. -
I bought a bluetooth Bose speaker so I could listen to music from my imac in multiple rooms at the same time. I wanted to use BOTH my existing speakers using the headphone jack and add additional bluetooth speakers in other rooms, but the imac wants me to pick one or the other, is there a way to have both?

How can I listen to music from iphone 4s via apple tv while doing a phone call at the same time?
When I take a call on the iphone, iphone stops streaming the music to apple tv until I finished the call.
thx!
Claus
PS: did ask the same question to apple hotline in germany. Answer: we don´t know... funnyWelcome to the Apple Community.
As far as I know you can't, which sort of makes sense, it seems logical to pause whatever you are doing while you take a phone call, which after all is the primary function of a phone. -
