Transfered purchases from other ipod wont go on my ipod

I recently transfered purchases from my friend's ipod onto my computer, but when I try to put those songs, games, and videos onto my ipod, they will not load. Why is this?

Because you did not purchase those songs.

  • Transfering purchases from 1 ipod to another

    i have a 30 gig that i have everything on. i am trying to transfer all my purchases to my new 80 gig but it doesn't transfer everything. i have bought 5 games and none of them are on my new ipod and only 3 episodes of csi:miami season 5 are downloaded not all 25 which are on my old ipod. i have done the authorize thing , tried sync nothing . what am i doing wrong. please help. i would really like to use my new ipod.
    thanx

    A 30 gig iPod can't be a Classic as they are only made in 80 and 160 gig models. It is quite possible, as suggested, that some/all of the games won't work on a Classic (I'm assuming that the "new 80 gig is a Classic) and therefore won't transfer. This doesn't, however explain the issue with the video content. For that, I'd check to see what syncing options are selected for television shows.
    Best of luck.

  • My ipod nano is recognised by my new MacBook Air, and even transferred purchases from it, but it won't synch?

    My old ipod nano is recognised by my new MacBook Air, and even transferred purchases from it, but it won't synch?
    When I linked it it used the name I had given the ipod so it seems strange that it won't synch even though it is definitely connected.

    See if this helps:

  • Transferring purchases from ipod to itunes 8.0 hangs

    I am trying to transfer purchases from my ipod to a new PC. I am using itunes 8.0 and the transfer starts but then hangs. The initial transfer is a movie from the ipod (perhaps relevant, perhaps not) .. any ideas ? is there a known issue with transfering purchased movies from the ipod to itunes ?

    I throw my hands in the air, 446 U2 songs gone....gone where...who knows...why?...because i clicked one button in itunes to transfer purchases from ipod to pc...!!! Sorry I'm really really REALLY annoyed...I bought this back in February 2005...and now it's gone...I don't appear to be able to download it again, I can't even find it on the website....but there were other albums also gone...!
    Does anyone have any hints suggestions before I smash the Ipod to bits :O
    I searched HD for songs but no joy..heart breaking..to say the least..(regardless yeah I should have had a backup..) but the transfer should have transferred them somewhere...I guess.

  • Transferring Purchases from iPod to New Computer

    I have recently gotten a new laptop and I am having problems transferring my purchases from my iPod to the laptop. I have authorized the new computer and have followed the instructions given by Apple on how to transfer (Transfer Purchases from "__" with the iPod connected). However, it only "transfers" a few of the songs and I still can't play them. When I try to play any of the songs, it says that it can't locate the original file.
    Before connecting my iPod, I had transferred all of my music to my computer via an external hard drive. I have also tried moving the music files to the iTunes Media/Music folder as well as adding the original file from my hard drive to the iTunes library.

    There is authorization and "authorization"
    I did a similar move. I replaced my Itunes server with a new build. I successfully saved off the old Itunes folder to my Network Attached Storage box and later copied that archive from the NAS into My Music on the new Itunes server.
    The Itunes folder contained different types of data.
    For CDs I loaded DIRECTLY into Itunes, the data includes authorization to play the data - because Itunes verified that it was an origional CD that was played directly into Itunes.
    In a similar manner, if you have Itunes data that was purchased and downloaded from the Itunes Store, then you need to "Authorize" the computer with Itunes in order to play that Itunes Store procured data. This is the "you have done 3 of 5" authorization.
    Finally, for CDs that I loaded into my old server via Windows Media Player, when I did a consolidate in Itunes, it went out and found the WMP data on a disk I dedicated to WMP music files, and since it was authorized in WMP, Itunes would play it. When I went to the new server, Itunes had the Itunes version of the songs in its library, but would NOT play the songs that had been migrated into Itunes from WMP until I actually connected the hard drive with the WMP files on it so Itunes could satisfy itself that it has "autorized" copies of the music. As soon as I connected the Windows Media Player data drive, Itunes did a compare and updated the Itunes versions of the songs imported from WMP to authrized and plays them just fine.
    The alternative is to reload from the origional media.
    Hope this helps.

    I too was looking for the same thing and found it.  Go to File (top bar next to iTunes), Devices, Transfer purchases...

  • HT1848 I transferred my purchases from my iPod to my laptop, but only some of the songs transfered. How do I fix this?

    i followed all the steps but a lot of my songs that I purchased from my iPod are missing. I want to get them onto my laptop, so what do I do?

    Can you see other pictures like wallpaper in normal mode?
    Did you check the format of the photos you synced through iTunes?
    iOS and iPod: Syncing photos via iTunes
    On a Mac, these file formats will sync from your iPhoto Library to your device: JPG, JPEG, TIFF, PICT, GIF, PNG, JPG2000 or JP2, PSD, SGI, and BMP.
    On Windows, these file formats will sync to your device: JPG , JPEG, BMP, GIF, TIF, TIFF, PSD, SGI, and PNG.
    Did you check the settings for black&white in Settings/General/Accessibility/ "White on Black" ---> "OFF"

  • Transferring songs from my Ipod to new hard drive

    I had to remove work related programs (and my ipod library),from an office laptop computer I brought home. I transferred some stuff (including wife and kids itunes libraries), from the old home computer to the new (old)laptop,downloaded itunes and it restored their libraries. When I plug my ipod in to it I get the "itunes can only be on one computer" message and asks if I want to erase ipod songs and replce with this library (pretty sure it means my wife and kids). I authorized this computer and my ipod id came up, but then same message came up again. Anyone have any experience restoring itunes library on a new (old) machine from ipod?

    If everything that is on iTunes that was on the library then pressing erase and sync will reload the iPod and link it to the library of your home computer. However if the content of the iPod is not on your computer when you get the that it 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 the 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. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
    The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    TuneJack Windows Only
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iGadget Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    SharePod Windows Only
    iRepo Mac and Windows
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows
    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the 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. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • How do I keep iTunes from automatically transferring purchases from my iPhone?

    Well, earlier in the year I had a Hard Drive failure. After having it fixed not all my files where on my Mac, including my iTunes media. So I connect my iPhone and it asks me if I want to transfer purchases? I click yes, the transfer wnet fine but some old media transferd too. I didn't want it so I simply deleted it. But when I plug my iPhone in now, it automatically says transfering purchases from Alex's iPhone. I then clicked on the "X" to cancel the task. But how do I keep iTunes from automatically transferring the old material?

    iTunes/Preferences/Devices - Select "Prevent iPods, iPhone, iPads from syncing automatically."
