TS1967 After 'updating' the newest iTunes version, I cannot sync my iPod Nano! It does not show up anymore.
After 'updating' the newest iTunes version, I cannot sync my iPod Nano! The 'old' version recognized and showed in icon to sync, but the newest version does not. Is there a way to sync the older iPods?

After updating the newest version of Facebook, my messaging is still the same old way even though it says it was supposed to turn to chat heads. Anyone else experiencing this?
you're welcome, you can get it sooner if you want to search google for directions, but i would just wait.

I have a desktop mac operating on Mac OSx 10.4.11 and the system does not recognize my iphone and I am unable to upgrade to the newest itunes version. What do I need to do?
Backup first
It is always best to have a full bootable backup before you upgrade. If you fail to do this you will be unable to return to this OS if you decide you don't like the new OS. Also there is a slight chance that an install could lose everything on the Mac. The backup must be to an external hard disk. Preferably use Carbon Copy Cloner to make a bootable backup of the whole disk.
Erase before the install
Once you have a bootable backup on an external disk it is best to erase the internal disk with the new installer DVD before you install.
During the install
Preferably do not import any data or preferences from earlier OSs during the install process as this can reintroduce bugs.
OS numbers and names
OS X 10.4.x - Tiger
OS X 10.5.x - Leopard
OS X 10.6.x - Snow Leopard
OS X 10.7.x - Lion
OS X 10.8.x - Mountain Lion

Upgrade to Leopard
Those wishing to upgrade to Leopard should be aware that install disks can be expensive unless you contact Apple. Details: http://lowendmac.com/deals/best-os-x-leopard-prices.html Standard Leopard installers impose several hardware limitations including speed and RAM size but all these restrictions can be overcome. Google for details. Leopard works well at 500 MHz with 1 GB of RAM and many happy users have less than this.
Upgrade beyond Leopard
OSs beyond OS X 10.5.8 require an Intel processor. If in doubt check this: Click the apple at the top left of your screen and select 'About this Mac'. This will give you your OS number. Then click 'More Info' to see which processor you have. If it says PowerPC you cannot upgrade to Snow Leopard and above. If you have an Intel Mac it is well worth upgrading to Snow Leopard now and then considering other options after that. You can buy Snow Leopard here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A

Check that your Mac complies with any requirements. If you are not in the US you should use the Change Country link at the bottom of Apple pages. -
I have the IPhone 4 , after updating the software to version 5.0 , i can't edit my contacts anymore(the button edit doesn't exist anymore), is it only from my device or the updated software should be adjusted?
That's exactly right. And since you have a MacBook Air (as I do), that means the synching should occur just fine (if you've set it up right in iTunes). In other words, once you actually do the update, the iTunes on your MacBook Air will re-sync your photos back to your iPhone.
Basically, the process is that your iPhone gets backed up, wiped clean, then the new iOS version gets installed, then the backup gets restored. That will restore everything in the article above, which does not include your photos. But the sync process that happens after the iOS installation would restore your photos from iPhoto given you've set it up that way in iTunes.
When you have your iPhone plugged into iTunes, while looking at the iPhone's summary page, click "Photos" on the right side of iTunes to see how you have your sync set up.
Regardless, it sounds like you'll be fine! Your photos will wind up in iPhoto once you place them there. They will be safe there. -
I have synced my IPhone 3GS to the newest iTunes version to get IMessage, it worked for a while but now it doesn't work and I have tried resyncing my phone but it still doesn't work. what should I do?
Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
If you have been through ALL of the troubleshooting steps and you're still having problems, then you'll need to bring your phone to Apple for investigation. -
i cannot find apple tv (1st generation) under devices after downloading the latest itunes version.
cannot stream any pictures or music
any suggestions?Welcome to the Apple Community.
If restarting everything including your router doesn't help......
Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted. -
I was asked to install the newest itunes and my software on my ipod just died. its dead so it does a cycle now over and over. it starts with an apple on it, apple fades away and the whole screen proceeds to light up and stay that way untill it cycles and goes back to dieing and shows the battery charging in red till the apple comes on again. My computer wont even pick up that there is a drive plugged into it. Also when i was installing the newest itunes on my comp, there was a error msg saying" ipod service..." something.... thanks Connie
<Edited by Host>Try:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

Will the latest iTunes version nullify operations of older ipods?
My son bought the latest iPod Nano (Gen 7) and found he needs to run the latest iTunes version supported by OS Mountain Lion in order to use it. We are running Mac OS X 10.5.8 (OS X Leopard).
To run the latest, Mountain Lion, will require 2 upgrades on our part. Apparently we have to upgrade to OS X Snow Leopard before we can upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.
This is all fine, but my son thought he saw something on an online forum that if we upgrade to Mountain Lion, our older iPods and my other son's iPod Touch ( all purchased within the last 4 or 5 years) might not be able to run/load/sync tunes on the newest iTunes version.
This seems counter-intuitive to me and may be (and probably is) complete bulldust. What's your knowledge of this situation?My 3rd gen iPod (2003 model), which connects using FireWire instead of USB, still works fine with the latest iTunes. My 4th gen iPod (2004 model) and 1st gen iPod shuffle (2005 model) also work fine. I don't have one to try, but I'll bet even the very first iPod from 2001 would work fine. Everything on the Internet is NOT true...
The iPod nano 7th gen specs
http://www.apple.com/ipod-nano/specs.html
say the Mac System Requirements are "OS X v10.6.8 or later, and iTunes 10.7 or later." So, technically, it does not require Mountain Lion, and the latest version of iTunes (11) works with Snow Leopard (10.6.8).
So, the minimum paid for upgrade (for you to use a 7th gen nano) would be for Snow Leopard, which is available from the online Apple Store for $20.
NOTE: If the Mac is a PowerPC Mac, you cannot upgrade it to Snow Leopard (Intel-only). -
I update my Mac to version 10.9.2 and now my printer does not work anymore. I did all the software updates and I do not understand why my mac does not recognize the printer anymore?
Go to the website of the manufacturer of your printer and check to see if they have released an updated driver for your particular model.

When I try to sync my music on my iPhone 4 I have a tab at the top that says 'on this iPhone'. This is at the end of all the other tabs like info, ringtones, music etc. The music in that tab is always on my phone but does not show in my itunes library. How can I get it into my library? It doesn't sync either.
The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version. You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes. Or you can adapt to the new look.

I have purchased podcasts on itunes and they show up in the podcast library,
but when I sync my ipod touch they will not go on to the ipod itself?
any help?Are you positive these podcasts are configured to sync to your iPod Touch? Have you double checked the configuration for podcasts from under the iPod's Podcasts configuration tab in iTunes?
To access this tab, plug your iPod in and click on its name from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes. This will bring you to the iPod's Summary tab. Locate the Podcasts tab along the top and select it. Here you can choose how and what podcasts sync to your iPod.
