Taking music out of another persons ipod classic!!

does anyone know how to take music from another persons ipod and putting them on a disc or putting them on your itunes music library on a mac computer?

Yes. Because one person made the purchase and two persons are using that purchase separately. If two is OK, why not 100, or 1000, or a million "buddies"?
I respect that Apple pays to run and moderate this forum. If I answered your question, someone would take the time to edit or remove my post, because Apple does not want to be seen as facilitating music piracy.
I'm not saying what you should or should not do. I'm just saying you should not ask the question in Apple's discussion forum.

TS4124 Hi, do you know how can I upload inelegible songs from itunes to Icloud. They are songs added from original CDs. Another question would be how can I transfer all the music I have in my Ipod Classic to my Itunes or ICloud as I want to back it up.

Depends on why it's ineligible. If it's under 96 Kpbs, try right-clicking on the file and choosing Create AAC Version. (If you don't see this option, go to iTunes>Preferences, click "Import Settings..." then choose "Import Using: AAC Encoder" and "Setting: iTunes Plus".) Then rescan your library to see if this version will add to iTunes Match. Or, after changing your import setting, just re-import the song to your iTunes library.
If the song is over 200 MB you would have to reduce it's size to make it eligible.

I recently dug out my old 160gb iPod Classic. Every time I connect it to iTunes, the program freezes and/or crashes. My computer recognizes that the iPod is plugged in, (it's accesible under "My Computer") but iTunes doesn't acknowledge it, at all. Help?

I know the Classic is outdated, but my other iPod doesn't have nearly as much room. Can anyone help with this?

Yet Another Faulty iPod Classic - Connects to "computer" but not iTunes

In Oct 2009, I purchased 160GB Classic and is now out of warranty so unable to replace, and i am not too keen on buying another one (NZD $470 RRP).
It had been working as per normal until Dec 2010 when I tried to sync the iPod on newly updated iTunes (10.1) then it started to freeze during sync and now, it doesn't sync any longer. It is howing as "connected" on the iPod and in "My Computer", but doesn't show up in iTunes at all.
iTunes also freezes (doesn't work whatsoever) while my iPod is plugged in to my computer. I have tried everything that the "Apple" help sites suggest (the 5 "R's", formatting, disk mode etc) you name it, but to no avail.
Trying to fix this problem is becoming frustrating and time consuming. My wifes iPhone 4 works perfectly so I know it's not the computer or iTunes itself. As I (had) trust in Apple products, I would expect this to last for more than 15 months.
I have no idea how this all came to be, and would just like it to work as normal again. What a way for Apple to earn its' "money"...
PLEASE, if ANYONE can help here, it would be very much appreciated.

I purchased 4 x iPod Classic 160gb units between July 2008 and March 2009 (and a 120gb Classic with which we have not had a problem). One unit worked for one day and had to be returned and was replaced with a new unit. The other three all failed within the 12 month warranty period and were replaced by Apple. Of the four replacements, three have now failed about 15 months after they were replaced. Of course the units are outside warranty (in particular due to Apple only offering the greater of 3 months warranty or the remainder of the original warranty). The units haven’t been subjected to any forceful knocks and as demonstrated by the lack of physical marks on the units.
To have 7 out of 8 units fail in this timeframe is in my opinion indicative of a fundamental flaw in the build quality or design of the units. After putting my case to Apple Australia I finally received a reply confirming that the units were out of warranty and nothing could/would be done - but they did offer a "thank you gift" of a credit of up to $125 at the Apple Store if I spent at least $425.
I replied that this wasn’t satisfactory but took up the credit whilst it was offered to at least get some discount off a new 160gb Classic (more reliable I am led to believe!). I am now out of pocket over $770 with replacement three units and still have one remaining unit that could die at any time.
Apple is no longer replying to my emails. If anyone with similar experiences would like to join together to put pressure on Apple to make good, or pursue other actions via consumer affairs, please reply on this forum.

Can't play music from Universal Dock when iPod classic plugged in

According to the iPod classic manual, one can play music or video while the iPod is connected to the computer or AC power to be charged up. However, this is not working for me. Instead, it says "Connected", and won't actually let me play music unless I unplug the USB cable. I have set iTunes to NOT start automatically, otherwise it will just sync over and over again, and still never play music. I know the iPod and dock are working correctly because if I unplug the USB cable from my computer, it plays music through the dock as expected. Suggestions? Thanks.

Alas, not so easy. No matter what way I use to eject it from iTunes, once it stops with the "Ok to disconnect" bit, if it is still in the cradle (which it needs to be for playing), it toggles back to Connected, and the following dialog box from iTunes pops up, saying:
"The iPod <name of iPod> cannot be ejected because it contains files that are in use by another application."
The only application using it is iTunes. I've tried exiting iTunes quickly, no joy. [Aside to discussion forum moderators: There doesn't seem to be a way to paste in a bitmap to show the dialog. Oh well.]
I just found a work-around, basically telling Windows at the OS level to remove the iPod qua USB device (usual way, right-click on the Safely Remove Hardware icon, choose the drive letter associated with the iPod), and that seems to do it. The battery icon is in the AC power state, so it's still on external power even though the OS doesn't see it. So maybe that's good enough. Although that's still something that iTunes ought to be doing, I would think.

Retrieve music from backup of an Ipod classic

My wife just lost her Ipod classic, and we would like to get the music off a backup. I no loger have the computer it was backed up to but I have a mirror of the hardrive that contains the backup file. The music and videos were never imported into Itunes or this would be easy. So what I have is her new Iphone, the old files from the computer containing the backup. Is this possible? Any help would much be appreciated.

I bought an ipod classic 160, do i need itunes installed to play music?, i bought an ipod classic 160, do i need itunes installed to play music?

Hi, i bought an ipod classic 160, and i am new to this. Do i need to install itunes to play music? I have installed music on to the ipod, and i can see the songs via my pc, but i cannot see the songs on the ipod to play them?
Thanks for the advice

You need to start again.
From what you have told us, it sounds to me as though you have put the iPod into disk mode and transferred music to the iPod using Windows Explorer, in which case you are using the iPod as a simple storage device. However, you cannot play that music - you have to add it to the iPod via iTunes.
So, install iTunes on your computer.You can download iTunes by clicking on this link; http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Add your music to iTunes, this becomes your iTunes library.
If you wish to put songs into Playlists, do this in your iTunes Library before connecting the iPod. (Usually, you make changes etc. in your iTunes Library. Only after that should you connect the iPod to it. We can discuss the exceptions to this later if you wish.)
You then connect the iPod to the computer and let iTunes Sync the Library to the iPod.
Once the Sync has completed (you will see a message confirming this), eject the iPod using the eject iPod button in iTunes.
Play the music on the iPod (and in iTunes).
By the way;
you may need to use Windows Explorer to remove the files you previously added to the iPod, as they will be taking up space on it that you want for music.
don't let anyone tell you either "not to use iTunes" or that "you don't need to use iTunes". iTunes is tailor-made for the iPod and it really is the best way to manage your iPod. Furthermore, using Sync (you'll see it when you work with iTunes) is the best method for adding or removing music to the iPod. There is an alternative method know as Manual Managing, but Sync is by far the better way to manage an iPod Classic.
If you need any further help, either with iTunes, arranging your Library, or with the iPod itself, post back into this thread rather than creating a new one, as it will make it easier to see where you have got to so far.

How can I set up a form for someone to fill out on another person's behalf?

I am trying to set up a form in which someone is asked to fill in the form for another person. Basically, we're asking people if they're still our primary contact. If they are, it's a simple blind form confirmation. If they're not, we are asking them to please tell us who is. So it will take them to a form where they can tell us who is the new contact. However, I don't want cookies for the new person to be attributed to the person that filled out the form (as that would then mess with segmentation, lead scoring/nurturing, etc). We also need to see who is the person filling out the form, so we know who the new person is replacing. So we'll need to collect the name and/or email address of the person filling out the form, in addition to the name and email address of the person they're adding.
I know this can be done, as at a previous company we had a form that was used internally to add people who called in sales inquiries, so that we could capture them as "submitting an inquiry" as if they had just filled out a form. For example, I would fill out the form after someone called in asking for product information, but the online behavior of that person would not be attributed to me even though I filled out the form from my computer. Unfortunately, I can't recall how this was set up. Does anyone have any ideas on how this could be set up?

Hi Abby,
The easiest way to do this is to set up two forms:
The first form is for your primary contact, who will submit the email address for the secondary contact and any additional contact data for the secondary contact. You can also include a field (hidden or otherwise) for the primary contact if you wish to record this form submission activity, but functionally this is not required.
A second form which will accept the secondary contact's email address and any other contact info you'd like to capture through this process.
The trick is that once you've got these two forms saved, you add a form processing step to the first form called Post Data to Server. In this processing step, you fill in the details for the second form, including making sure to map the secondary email address field on form 1 to the primary email address field on form 2. The URL will need to be the POST action url for the secondary form, which you can get from the integration details. You'll also need to append your SiteID and Form Name, and also a variable to disable cookies for this submission (elqCookieWrite). The final URL should be something like this:
https://s1886.t.eloqua.com/e/f2?elqSiteID=1886&elqFormName=Alt2&elqCookieWrite=0
My organization is 1886, so you'll have to replace this with your Site ID
My secondary form name is Alt2, so you'll have to replace this with your secondary form name
elqCookieWrite=0 ensures the secondary form will not try to associate the session with the ElqGUID (cookie)
In the secondary form, make sure you have the processing step Update Contacts - With Form Data.
Now when submitting form 1, you'll see a submission to both forms, and the contact info submitted to form 2 creates a new contact (or updates an existing one) with no ties to the current session/cookie used to submit form 1. You can add these contacts to a shared list, enter them into a separate campaign or program, or anything else you could do with a normal form submission.
One caveat to remember though is that since this person did not submit the form, you have not technically collected any permission to contact them, so you'll have to sort that out with whatever rules apply in your area (your use case seems to be for existing customers which is generally OK, but you should still check).
Hope this helps,
Richard

Video Out not working on Ipod Classic 80gb

I can't get video out to work on anything. I have a relatively new Onkyo home theater with an iPod dock that has video out cables, and I can't get a picture to show up on the TV. Also, my gym has StarTrac cardio equipment which has video connectivity through a built-in iPod dock. Video is supposed to show up on the TV monitor attached to the cardio machines, but all I get is "no signal".
Since I can't get either of them to work, is something wrong with my iPod?
Thanks!

When you want to show the video on your TV, have you selected TV out in the video settings options?
If that's not the problem, check this page, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1454 to ensure you have the correct cable for your iPod, although you need to ensure you have identified your iPod model correctly. Check http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353 if you're not sure because there is a crucial difference between the Classic and the 5th generation video models. (On the *iPod and iPhone: TV out support* page - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1454 - look at the third table down, headed *Apple Component AV Cable with iPod Universal Dock or Apple Universal Dock* .) Notice that the Apple Universal Dock and Component cable combination works for an iPod Classic, but not for the 5th gen iPod. My point being; if the STarTrac device you mention has a built-in dock, perhaps it's designed for the iPod Classic, but if you have the 5th gen, it won't work.
... and no, I don't know why one dock is called the Apple Universal Dock, while the other is called iPod Universal Dock! Such a similar naming convention only leads to confusion. I know, I had to examine each box in my local store to find the iPod dock among all the Apple docks they had since they thought both docks were identical.
