Telephone # for iPod help

Can somebody tell me the number to call to ask for iPod help?
thanks

Hi Drummer,
You can contact Apple here:
http://www.apple.com/support/contact/
If you purchased your iPod recently (within 90 days, I believe) you get 1 complementary tech support call. After that, it's an arm and a leg ($60).
Good luck,
Maz

  • Convert Selection for Ipod help

    Having just updated to the latest version of iTunes 6.0.2 for the Mac I have been attempting to the Convert Selection for iPod menu selection for video podcasts that have not already sync'd up. I have successfully converted 1 video podcast and loaded it on my iPod 5G, but have also tried unsuccessfully to the same with 4 or 5 others. When I do Get Info on the converted files it does show the .m4v file extension and when I run the video podcasts from within iTunes, it looks like it is the right size.
    Has anyone else seen this and can offer a resolution?

    I think I was able to resolve this myself after some trial and error. It looks like it is all in the name of the file. I've gotten some files to transfer after going into the Get Info section and updating the name (usually shorten the name or take out non-letter/number/# characters and then get the filename on disk to match.

  • Cable for ipod - HELP!!!

    I was looking at purchasing the XtremeMac Auxiliary Audio Cable for iPod and I just want to be clear that I am understanding the description correctly. Do you plug the cable into your ipod (where the headphones go) and also into your stereo (also where the headphones go) so it plays from your stereo speakers? I would appreciate an answer soon since I am considering buying this in time for Christmas. Thanks.

    I don't think that is right. You need an audio in jack on the stereo. A headphone jack would be audio out. I haven't seen a car stereo with a headphone jack. I have seen an auxilary jack on some - for use with mp3 players.

  • Ripping DVD's ready for iPod - Help Needed!!

    Hi All
    I have been using Handbrake to rip my DVD's and for some reason it has stopped working now..
    It goes through the process of encoding the files, all the settings are correct and I have noted the saved directory (even changed it a couple of times), and when it completes 100% there is no file to be found anywhere......
    I have posted a note on the handbrake forum but got no reply yet.
    Does anybody know what the problem may be?
    Also, does anybody know of an application that will rip DVD's so that they are iPod ready, or maybe into MPG/MPEG/AVi format.
    Many thanks
    Garry

    It goes through the process of encoding the files, all the settings are correct and I have noted the saved directory (even changed it a couple of times), and when it completes 100% there is no file to be found anywhere.
    How long do you wait? Once conversion has completed, the YourFileName.temp file must be rewritten to your desitination location. This can take some seconds, depending on the size of your movie. While we're at it, is the temporary file even being created when conversion begins?
    Also, does anybody know of an application that will rip DVD's so that they are iPod ready, or maybe into MPG/MPEG/AVi format.
    Ripping/extraction of DVDs can be done by a number of Mac compatible appliations. MacTheRipper (free) is probably one the most popular at the moment. Stripping and/or conversion, however, still requires an ancillary application like MPEG2 Works 4 Advanced ($$) or MPEG StreamClip (free). However, since your were less than specific as to type (stream file, elementary streams, VCD compatible, SVCD compatible, DVD compatible, etc.) of target file desired, I can only generalize. Conversion basically depends on the workflow you utilize. Both applications have some "intrinsic" capabilities but, for the most part, rely on QT, QT Tools, and/or QT components you have installed and available. In addition, both application allow output to what is basically the QT Pro "Movie to QuickTime" export option. This simply means that in addition to the specific formats you mentioned, you also have full access to all of the same target QT formats you could normally access directly from your QT Pro application. (I.e., you can go directly from a VOB file or file segment to any available QT compatible compression format based on QT Pro and installed QT Pro components.)
    REMINDER: These alternative compression formats are not iPod compatible.
    ADDED: Forty-TwoDVD-VXPlus ($$) will convert ripped/extracted DVD directly to iPod compatible formats.

  • Error when converting videos for ipod--help needed please! : )

    *** is that supposed to mean? : )
    i think i have the 5th generation ipod. its the larger gig video one that came out last octoberish.

    any help would be much appreciated--thanks!

    Where are the videos from? are they from a creditable source or from an illegal downloading site such as limewire. most of those videos are not in the correct video format to begin with so apple itunes will not recognize them and convert them. The best way to convert video is to rip your own dvds or home movies and put them on your computer then ipod. There is at least one way on each operating system (windows and mac) to rip your own dvds and then transfer them to itunes and finally put them on your ipod. A mac is the easiest of the two ways. If you have a mac, then you download a program off of the web called handbrake. Simply "google" >handbrake rip dvds< and its homepage should pop up or try <a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://">http://handbrake.m0k.org). Handbrake allows you to copy and convert your dvds to ipod format. On a windows operating system the most effective way I have found to rip my dvds is quicktime pro($25-$35). You can buy it at quicktime's website. It basically does the same thing as handbrake. I, myself, have simply converted some videos, like sports shows and commercials, to ipod format using itunes and both the video and audio worked fine.
    If you have any ?'s just reply back
    I hope this helps!

  • Brenthaven Easel for iPod - Help

    http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=713 72256&nplm=TJ199LL%2FA
    Will this fit the 80g? I'm asking because when I first purchased my iPod, everyone at Circuit City recommended a certain case, so I bought it. It was made for the 60g but they told me it would fit the 80. I bought it, and it didn't fit. The flap wouldn't close.
    I read through the reviews on the Brenthaven Easel and someone said that he couldn't plug his headphones in while it was closed..something about the hole not aligning right with the headphone jack. Do any of you have this product, or know if this really would be a good case to get for my iPod? Thanks!

  • IPod to iPhone Face Time - thank you for your help : )

    I have tried to use face time with someone who has an iPhone - both on IOS 5. We both have wi-fi and ended up having to switch to Skype instead. Can someone please help? Should we both be using e-mails to connect? I use her phone number to send text messages and they go through.
    Thank you so much for your help!
    Tupy

    For FT. for a iPhone, you call the phone's telephone number.
    For an iPod, you call the email address that is set for the iPod.

    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. That is how it works
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • New software update for iPod touch 4th generation? PLEASE HELP!!

    Ok so here is the problem: I have the iPod touch 4th generation with software version 4.3 (I have had my iPod for about 7 months) and recently within the past week or so I have started experiencing multiple crashes with many different various apps and games. Just random games crashing and then I noticed it happening with the Facebook app and even Safari on my iPod! I had to get off of my iPod and come on the computer to type this message out because Safari would crash every single time I tried to type this on my iPod! So at first I figured it was the apps and games' problems, but then as more and more began to crash, like Facebook and Safari, I figured it is the Apple software version 4.3 acting up. So I was wondering, is Apple working on a new software update for iPod touch 4th gen.? Or is this a rare problem? Is there anyone out there having this same problem? Or anyone at all that can PLEASE help me?! MANY THANKS!
    - Sam Amos

    No one would know what Apple is working on, unless they announce, which they very rarely do.
    Have you tried the basics from the manual?
    restart.
    reset.
    restore.

  • How come I can't put music on my ipod? I already have a fair amount of music on my ipod but I have enough space for more. I am using a new computer with itunes and it is telling me if I wasnt to put the new music on my ipd i need to erase my ipod HELP!

    Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
    - Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
    - Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.

  • How to create backup file on itunes for ipod touch 4g game apps data? Is there a way to do it? I want to try an app on my friend's computer, but you can't add apps on another computer without having your own ipod's data being deleted. Thx for any help!

    I want to know how to create a backup file (because I'm pretty new with itunes, and it's hard to use it for me still), how to store my app data/media/videos, etc. And how I can retrieve them back when I'm done with the app I tried on my friend's computer.
    If anyone can help, it'd be great! Thank you so much!

    Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac.  You should be able to set a password for it. Save it.  Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer,  I suppose,  back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity.  As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
    you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
    This handy article from Apple explains how
    How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
    don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
    and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
    time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine  and go for it.  You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups  of your stuff.
