Help! Thank you!

If you're referring to the first part, covering "Transfer Purchases from iPod", that only applies to items purchased from the iTunes Store. It will not work with music you imported from CD or obtained elsewhere and put on your iPod.
Check out this post from Zevoneer for some iPod media recovery options:

How can I get my non purchased song content from ipod touch 4 back to my itunes library. My library

How can I get my non purchased song content back into my itunes library from my ipod touch 4. My itunes had disappeared so I had to get another itunes & start again. I still have the original song content in the ipod.

There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

Copy contents of Nano 5th generation iPod to PC

I need to COPY all of contents of downloaded classes on my Nano 5th generation to Dell PC without changing the iPod contents. Want to be able to study online rather than from iPod. Is this possible. Need to do it THIS WEEKEND.

Hello LivingWell47,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
What kind of media are these downloaded classes? Movies, Voice Memos, etc? How did you get them on there in the first place?

Can I wirelessly stream non-iTunes Store contents from iTunes to my HDTV via AppleTV?

All contents are converted to be iTunes friendly (m4v). They also play properly on my iPhone 4 and iPad. How can I watch these videos on my HDTV wirelessely, will it work on AppleTV? Again, all videos were downloaded and converted to m4v and were not purchased from the iTunes Store.

Anything that is in the correct format and in the iTunes library can be streamed to an Apple TV

Are there any alternative methods to transferring non iTunes media content from an iPhone to a computer?

I cannot seem to transfer some music from my old iphone 4 onto my computer to put it on my iphone 5

Requires a third party utility ...

Trying to delete podcast from nano (5th) but only seems to have disappeared from iTunes

My daughter set up my nano a few years ago by putting running songs on, which was all I wanted it for then . Am thinking about getting another Apple device so have been teaching myself how iTunes works and also other things about this neglected nano. I decided to try downloading a podcast through iTunes, which worked fine, with it showing in the podcast library and then transferred it on to the nano where it appeared correctly in the Podcast menu and played.
I don't actually want that podcast (was just using it to trial the process ) so tried to delete it from the nano. I thought I had followed instructions gathered from here (the user manual wasn't clear) which said I had to do it via iTunes.
Result: I have managed to delete the podcast from the library (shows as nothing in there) but it is still on the nano.
Woudl be very grateful for help on where I go from here!

Further report: I reset the nano, deleted everything and reloaded the music. It worked - no lingering unwanted podcast - but surely there must be a proper way to do this ?

Transferring non Itunes purchased music from ipod to computer.

I have followed all the instructions on the Apple website and these forums but have still not managed to do it. I will probably download the freeware listed in the forums. However when I look in My Computer my ipod is shown but when I open it there is no Itunes music folder just contacts etc. Why is this?

* I see the music in my itunes, but there is no folder! How can that be??*
The files are hidden. Did you read the link I posted above? It contains instructions for both Mac and Windows to unhide the files.\
*Side note: My ipod says "do not disconnect" could that have something to do with it?*
It has nothing to do with it, your iPod is either enabled for disk use, set to manual update or both. Setting an iPod to manual update enables disk use by default. When using an iPod in enabled for disk use the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod

Remove non app store application from Launchpad Mac OS X v10.7.2

As I remember, to remove app from lunchpad in mac os x lion 10.7.1, I just have to drag the app from the lunchpad to trash. But in mac os x 10.7.2, i couldn't do that anymore. How to remove the app actually?

The firmware in Apple's sytems for the past few years disallow the user from running or installing a version or build of OS X that predates the original version and build that came on the computer when it shipped. This is to prevent situations wherein the OS doesn't have the requisite drivers to support the graphics subsytem or other components crucial to functioning.
The current build in the online store is much earlier than the version that shipped on your 2012. It is likely that the only build you will be able to use on your machine, that you could directly download form the online store will be Mountain Lion, when it becomes available.
As such, if you need to restore the system before then, you will need to use the Recovery Partition on your system, or Internet Recovery, to reinstall the OS.

Transferring old iPhone 3G content from older Macbook Pro to new & iPhone 4

Hi,
I would like to know what the most efficient way of moving all my old iPhone contacts and calendar etc. from my old Macbook Pro and iPhone 3G to my new MacBook Pro and iPhone 4?
It doesn't seem that straight forward?
Thanks,
Chris.

Use migration assistant to move everything from the old computer to the new.
Iphone should sync as always.

There are third-party program that allow transfering non-Tunes purchased music from the iPod to a computer like those discussed here:

I've transferred my itunes library from PC to Macbook pro running latest itunes and now it will not recognize my iPods (nano 4 and 5th Gen an Ipod touch). All music is there and playable but will not recognize any devices. Help please

The ipod is not a backup/storage device.
You need to copy everything from your old computer to your new one.
The Apple store will do this for you, you can call apple support and they will help you, you can use google.

Just got a new mac computer and none of the music from my old computer's itunes transfered when I transfered the contents of the hard drive. Now I'm trying to transfer music from my ipod and can't get all the files....help?

The iphone is not a storage/backup device.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
Have you failed to do this?
If so, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You may be able to purchase a third partyn program to get the rest ( not supported by Apple)

HT1351 I've purchased a game from the itunes store. Can I sync it to my Ipod Nano 5th generation?

I have an IPOD Nano 5th generation.
It has 3 games installed and I bought a game from the itunes store.
How do you get the game on the ipod? I saw somewhere "clicker" games are the only kind
you can use. This is driving me crazy. Can I sync this game to the IPOD at all? Thank you.

Thank you for your reply. It was a game I purchased that is suppose to be compatible with IPOD 5G however it downloaded from the ITUNES store in the "Apps" of ITUNES, but shows that it is a game with the extension.ipa. There is no game tab in ITUNES. How do I get the game tab back in order to sync with my IPOD 5G

5th gen iPod transfer iTunes library contents from device... Please help

I have a 5th generation iPod with video, a new laptop (Windows Vista) with the latest iTunes 10.4 installed and am trying to transfer entire contents to iTunes library.

I have been at this for 2+ hours, I hope someone is able to help me, please. Thanks.

My Ipod nano 5th gen lost all of my podcasts and will not download anything from ITunes

All my content on my Ipod nano 5th ed disappeared, and it will not download anything from ITunes. I restoered original content. My operating system is up to date. My capacity is 8 gigs. What more should I do?

The title says "iPod nano 5th gen" but your message says "iPod classic". There is a forum for the iPod classic, if that is what you have.
