The new update doesn't allow me to add songs to my iPod

I recently updated iTunes on my Windows computer. I got songs (not from the iTunes Store) and attempted to put them on my iPod. I had made a playlist with songs in it which is on my iPod, but it doesn't come up as an option to add the songs to it. I create another playlist with the new song's but it won't go onto my iPod. I tried everything, clicking and dragging, restarting iTunes, unplugging and plugging in my iPod again, syncing multiple times. I was going to sync through the Setting part of iTunes under my iPod, but it doesn't recognize my iPod from the previous version of iTunes. The songs work on iTunes, but they just won't transfer to my iPod. Thanks for anyone who can help me out!

Generally if syncing doesn't work as expected take the following steps:
Backup device.
Restore as a new device.
Restore the backup made earlier.
This assumes all content on the device is in your library already. If that isn't the case see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

First, create a separate login on your computer for your friend. Do this BEFORE you do anything else. Next, make sure iTunes is up to date. Then:
1. Disable auto sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected under Preferences>Devices in iTunes.
2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in the supported applications(Address Book, iCal) on your computer. These entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
3. Connect her phone, iTunes running, do not sync at this point.
4. Store>Authorize this computer.
5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on her phone will be in her itunes library).
6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
7. Right click again and select backup.
8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore her itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding her contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
You should be good to go.

HT1920 The e-mail address that I used to add songs to my ipod in iTunes no longer exists. Most of the 2,600 songs were downloaded from CD's. Is there a way to access the itunes account?

The e-mail address that I used to add songs to my ipod in iTunes no longer exists. Most of the 2,600 songs were downloaded from CD's. Is there a way to access the itunes account?

Only downloads from iTunes will be tied to that iTunes account, unless you subscribed to iTunes Match and uploaded the other songs from your computer to it. If you can't remember the account's password then you could try seeing if you can get reset via this page : http://iforgot.apple.com
If that doesn't work then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can help : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
When you've got access to the account you can update the primary email address on it to be one that you still have access to : http://appleid.apple.com
If you don't have the music that wasn't downloaded from iTunes on a backup then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back from your iPod : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

The new iTunes doesn´t allow me to import or see my homemade videos, any suggestions?

Hi, I just installed the new Itunes on both my mac and Pc. In the Mac i have no problems yet, but in my PC (windows Vista) I can´t see the movies i have in the library and wont let me import new homemade videos. I try to go back to the old version, but it won´t oppen becouse the Itunes list is made by the new version. Someody have the same problem? Any ideas about what should I do?

I am facing the same issue too. One workaround is to get all the tracks and music videos of that artist by using the search option and then select the video that you want to view. Then double click on that view and you will be able to preview the video rather than directly going to the preview option. This somehow works for me pretty well.

The new update does not allow me to start a new tab in the browser

After updating Firefox for Mac, Command-T, the prompt in the File menu, nor the + by the open tab will start a new tab.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
*Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
'''For Firefox versions previous to 29.0:'''
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]] button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
'''For Firefox 29.0 and above:'''
#Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Troubleshooting Information''.
Now, a new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
#At the top right corner of the page, you should see a button that says "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]]. Click on it.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

Facebook Zuma Blitz. The NEW Firefox doesn't allow gameplay

Made sure everything is allowed for the game to load. It worked BEFORE I upgraded to the Firefox 8.0. Now it doesn't load completely for game play.

You can uninstall (remove) the Java Console extensions and disable the Java Quick Starter extension, you do not need them to run Java applets.

The new update 5.0.1 wont put my songs in alphabetical order

Is anyone else having this problem? is there anyway to fix it?

Click on the top of the Album column to sort the songs by Album order. If you have proper track numbers, this will also do a secondary sort by track number, thus putting the album in the correct order.

HT4759 How do I set up icloud for my ipod shuffle on my new computer windows 8. I downloaded the icloud but it tells me that i don't have the icloud and I cannot add songs to my ipod.

An iPod Shuffle can't use iCloud. It can only be used on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a supported Mac or PC.
Also you can't create and iCloud acount on your PC (or your iPod Shuffle). You have to create your account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.2) or higher. After creating the account on one of these devices you can sign into it on your PC. But this still won't allow you to add songs to your iPod Shuffle as it doesn't support iCloud.

HT1338 I need to update my software in order to download the new version of iTunes in order to put songs on my new iPod. But my software doesn't need updating..or so my computer says. What should I do??

If your iMac has a PowerPC processor, Leopard OS 10.5.x is the max OS. If your iMac has an Intel processor, it can run Snow Leopard OS 10.6.x or possibly higher.
Once we know your iMac model, we can better recommend what OS X version.

Pages 5 now uses the system-level auto-correction in System Preferences > Keyboard > Text. Unfortunately, a lot of the options available in previous versions of Pages no longer exist.

Why doesn't the new update for itunes work?

I have tried to download the new update for itunes now several times and it doesn't work! It gets so far then doesn't work. I have tried to uninstalled then reinstall itunes and that hasn't worked either so I no longer have a working itunes on my computer. And having an ipod nano, which doesn't have wifi I can't update it at all. Getting very annoyed!!!

Many thanks, that's perfect:

TS2755 Since the new update...My text messaging doesn't work???? I need help, I've tried everything...

Is anyone else having a problem with their text messaging since the new update?? If so, how did you fix it???

I seem to be having a similar problem. Since updating to iOS 7 my text messages are consistently getting the message send failure. I-messaging is fine, it appears to only happen with simple text messages to non-iPhone users. Maybe 1 out of 5 goes through on the first try.
Tried all the usual suspects. Checked settings. Restarted phone.

HT6114 mail doesn't open since the new update

Since the new update(v10.9.2) my mail has refused to open keeps coming up with the mail has had a problem would you like to reopen screen. Has anyone else had this problem?

Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Go to Library/Containers/com.apple.mail. Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
Re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.

The new update for Firefox 6.0 is not allowing me to add it, without adding two toolbars specifically IMVU and Norton, that I don't want to add and the update will not allow me to remove them

The new update keeps appearing with the toolbar additions and I will not update until they are removed

Thanks for the article. I've done some of the suggestions but it is still not the same....Does anyone else miss the status bar? Even with installing the add on for it, it did not work for me. Overall, the article suggestions made a definite improvement. What was Mozilla thinking with this version? But thanks for pointing me to that article!

I tried to read about the new update on security but it doesn't come up. I'm afraid to download it until I know what it's about

Is the new update for 7.06 on the security ok to download. It won't let me download the info to read up on it first.

Yes of course. It addresses a security hole within Safari. Its an update provided by Apple, its certified to work on Apple's devices. Why would you doubt it?
Here is what it specifically fixes.
