  • ITunes freezes while transferring TV season from Apple TV back to computer

    I bought a season of a show on the Apple TV and it downloaded the entire season fine. When I open up iTunes and it starts syncing, it indicates that the computer is transferring the shows from the Apple TV back to the computer, but then iTunes freezes in the middle. The Apple TV appears to be fine. I'm currently running Custom Sync as the option.
    I'm running 2.4 ATV OS, the latest iTunes (8.2) on a Windows XP. Network is a Linksys 54G wireless router.
    I've looked at some things and have tried reauthorizing, rebooting, etc. It's a pain because I have some new content that I want to get on the Apple TV, but it defaults to transferring shows back before adding new content from iTunes onto the AppleTV.
    Any thoughts?

    Thanks for the update, but that doesn't really help me since my computer (desktop) and my computer about about 50 feet from each other and I really have no desire to unplug either to sync. The reality is that this has been a problem with 2.4 since it was released a month and a half ago and there is no reason why Apple hasn't fixed it by now.
    What this has led me to do is not download any shows to my AppleTV, I just buy them on my computer now and the downstream sync works fine.

  • Transferring data from Apple TV back to computer

    I had to replace the logic board within my computer and restore all of the data on my hard drive. Before I took it into the shop for repair, I transferred ALL of my music and video from iTunes to my Apple TV. Now that my computer is fixed, I would like to transfer ALL of the back to my computer. I thought it would be simple... just a sync, but I am not sure how to do this action.
    PLEASE HELP ME... SOMEONE...

    you cant unless you hack it or open it and remove the harddisk and connect it to your computer
    next time you set it up to sync with your "new computer" it will delete everything on the atv

  • Sync itunes from Apple desktop to macBook Pro

    I have my iTunes on my apple mac and wnat to sync it so i have it all on my laptop (a macbook pro) when i travel so i can sync my iPhone iwh tlaptop as well as desk top.
    Can it be done? and if so, how?

    Well...basically you need to copy the iTunes Music folder with the original library and transfer it to the other computer. You could do this via a firewire cable hooked to the two computers (and probably the fastest way), or you could use an external drive or thumbdrive, depending on the size of your library. The most inefficient way would be to backup your library to disc and then import the files to the second computer.
    Post back if you need help with one of these methods.

  • Syncing Itunes from Ipad2 to Windows XP computer

    Can anyone tell me why when I sync my Ipad to my computer I lose Itunes purchases? I am now only seeing a few songs from a CD when I downloaded entire CD.  Thanks

    in fact, if i remember correctly, it even worked in itunes, which no longer even has a photo tab.
    Your memory is incorrect. iTunes has never handled the importing of photos from the iPhone's Camera Roll. The Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes is for transferring selected photos from your computer to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process ONLY.
    (and btw thanks, if i could find the answer in the manual, i wouldn't have posted).
    You're welcome. If you couldn't find this in the user guide, you didn't look very well or you spent very little time looking.
    what does that even mean? is there a way to manipulate images from the camera roll to somewhere else?
    It means exactly as I provided, which I can't provide any clearer.
    Photos captured by your iPhone - photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll are not synced. *_Photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll can be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera._*

  • Syncing itunes from iphone 3g to another computer

    i buy all of my itunes on my laptop and then download to my iphone 3g. i had previously made a backup of my itunes (before getting my iphone) and restored them to another authorized computer that i sync with my outlook calendar only. after getting the iphone i had made some new purchases and when i synced with the other computer it recognized my new purchases and put them in the purchased music folder. can i delete all the previous restored songs and will the iphone restore them automatically?

    Ok, sorry, let me correct myself.... Itunes recognizes my phone, but not my PC

  • I synced iTunes from my computer to a new iPad. All of my purchases appear and are listed as downloaded, but none of the will play. Any ideas?

    I synced iTunes from my computer to a new iPad. My purchased music appears as normal in the list and is designated as downloaded, but none of it will play.  Any ideas of what I can do?

    try resetting the device by holding down the home and sleep key, past the red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if that helps.
    Also, try finding a free app, any free app, download it on your ipad then see if that gets your others to work.You can delete the free app if it works (or if it doesn't for that matter)

  • How To : Sync playlists from iOS device back to itunes - Windows

    How To : How To : Sync playlists from iOS device back to itunes - Windows (May work on Mac too)
    NOTE - THIS WILL ONLY WORK IF YOU HAVE THE MUSIC FILES ON THE COMPUTER ALREADY
    If your like me and format your computers only to discover that you've lost all those time consuming playlists that you spent hours on, well your in luck.
    Without any Third-Pary programs it's possible to save those awesome playlists, and pull them back from the blink of oblivion.
    Step 1 - Connect iDevice to your computer and then open iTunes.
    Step 2 - Locate your iDevice on the left side bar on iTunes under the heading 'Devices', click the arrow on the left of the devices name and select a playlist.
    Step 3 - Right-Click the selected playlist and choose 'Export playlist', Save it as a Text file.
    Step 4 - In iTunes, up the top click 'File' then locate Library, move across to 'Import Playlist...', Select the playlist you just created and click open.
    Step 5 - Your playlist will appear on the left side bar under the heading 'Playlists', Select the playlist and attempt to play one of the songs contained.
    Step 6 - You would have been prompted that iTunes doesnt see the file, select 'Locate' and then go to the location of your music and locate the file.
    (Sorry dont have an image for this one due to having all my music already found)
    Step 7 - Doing this once will find all the music in the playlist given that it's in a similar location of the song you found.
    Congrats you have successfully moved a playlist back from oblivion

    There's a different method.
    1. On iTunes -> Devices -> <your device> -> Summary -> Check Manually manage music and videos.
    2. On iTunes -> Devices -> <your device> -> Summary -> uncheck Manually manage music and videos.
    done.

  • How do i sync music FROM my ipod to the computer

    I just upgraded to itunes 11, and all the music that was in the itunes library dissapeared from the itunes library, and Im freaking out!!!! However, the music that was there, is still on my ipod, so I was thinking that i can just sync it from my ipod to the computer.
    there was a time where i didnt have REAL music on my ipod. I would go on youtube and record it under voice memos. How stupid was that?! anyway, my music from another itunes library is there, and like i said, its not even music, theyre voice memos! how do i get rid of those and put the music thats on my ipod back in the library? A pro, please help!

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • Sync itunes from laptop to ipad

    how do i sync itunes from laptop to ipad

    If you are on iTunes 11 on your computer then you may want to enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), which might make it easier to navigate.
    Connect the iPad to your computer and select it on that left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes, and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Music - if you select that tab you should then be able to select which of you iTunes music library to sync to the iPad's Music app

  • Sync iTunes from iMac to iBook

    how do I sync iTunes from iMac to iBook? I tryed through Bluetooth, no luck. Any ideas?

    To keep both libraries perfectly synced, you may need to find a script or separate application to do it.
    If you're just interested in keeping the music the same (but not necessarily play counts, ratings, etc) you can just copy the music itself from one computer to the other (via network).
    Perhaps someone with a bit more imagination/experience can provide a working solution? I've done something similar by using an external/network drive and a sym linked iTunes library, but the problem with that is your laptop won't be able to access the music unless it's on your home network.
