HT204053 I recently moved my song library to a new computer. I went to authorize my songs for the new computer, but about 1,000 will not authorize. They are authorized on an old account that was linked to my old work email. Can I do anything to get thes

So I have about 1000 songs that I can no longer access because they are linked to my old account. I cannot access that account, because the email I used for it was my old work e-mail. I got laid off in 2009, so I have no way to access that e-mail. Is there a way I can unlock these songs, or are they lost? They are still on my iTunes, and everytime I go to play them, it says I need to authorize them to play on this computer. What can I do? Thanks for any help!!!

You can update an older Apple ID that is no longer a working email address by using a new email address. Just make sure that it is not an email address that you are using in your second Apple ID.
Once you have rehabilitated the old Apple ID, authorize the Mac to use content from both Apple IDs.

IPod touch won't allow FaceTime to load

iPod touch won't allow FaceTime to load, is there any fix out there for this?

With the limited amount of information you provided all I can suggest is the standard fixes.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

There is nothing wrong with the OS update.
Delete ALL your email accounts.
Restart Playbook
Put the accounts back and ensure they are all set with PUSH ON. Manual (push off) will burn battery.
Similarly delete your wifi connections and add back when required.
Turn off wifi is not connected to wifi.
Any "hunting for connection" in email or wifi will burn up battery.

IPod Touch Won't Update to iOS5 without error message (-43) stating all contents will be deleted. How can I update without everything being deleted?

Hi there,
I have an iPod Touch 3rd generation (Model A1318). For the last several months I keep trying to update to iOs 5 and it gets stuck during the backup phase and an error message pops up:
As half of my songs are not iTunes purchases, therefor not on the cloud, I do not want to start from scratch and have everything deleted. Also, Apple does not allow you to extract songs back off the pod easily to backup, so it would present a serious hassle reuploading hundreds of songs from CDS etc. Can anyone help explain this message? Has anyone hit continue with the update occurring smoothly without anything being erased? Any guidance much appreciated. I tried several times disabling my anti virus software during the process like others have said on the boards and in the Apple store but the same message and outcome. For reference, I'm using Windows Vista and the most recent iTunes 10.6.1.

See my response to your other post.
The automatic iTunes backup does not contain any synced items like apps, music (either iTunes purchases or not). There is no difference in what is backed up. See:
iTunes: About iOS backups

IPod Touch won't allow apps to update, says not enough space

My iPod Touch (which I believe is a 4th generation) will not allow me to update my apps. With help, I was finally able to update iTunes and update my iPod to iOS 6, which I thought would fix the problem, but it hasn't. I deleted all of my photos and videos, assuming that would free up a huge amount of space, and it did, but my iPod currently has 887MB of space available (it's an 8G model). I have 5G of iCloud space available but I don't really know what iCloud is or how to use that storage space. So how do I convince my iPod Touch that it has more than adequate space to update the apps that need it? Any and all help would be sincerely appreciated, THANK YOU!

How many apps are you trying to update? How big are the updates? It must think that there isn't enough free space to store the updated versions of the apps.
iCloud space won't help you on this, it's only for additional off-device storage.

My ipod touch won't allow me to log into messenger

My daughter's ipod touch will not recognize messenger any longer...even though her email is confirmed. Also, the ipod won't recognize our wifi info...we have tried to reset the ipod to no avail...any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thx

- Try tapping the screen twice with three fingers to get to normal and then go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn Voice-Over over.
- If unsuccessful, connect the iPod to its syncing computer and go to the Summary pane for the iPod in iTunes. Click on Configure Universal Access and turn Voice-Over off.

8.02 troubles: my 5th gen ipod touch won't allow me to open up the app store following my update, even after a restart. What should I do?

My ipod touch is a 5th generation and I recently updated to 8.02 software, however, when I attempted to open up my bank app it gave me a warning that the application may have been compromised. So as I have done when things I need stop working in the past, I erased the application and went to re-download the latest version from the app store. I only then realized that, regardless of my wonderful wifi connection, my ability to access the app store has also been cut off. I have had more problems since the update also with applications closing out in the middle of what I am doing (but this is not new so I thought very little of it) and with my photos. After I take a new photo they aren't arranged in the order that I have taken them in and I have had to search through my 3000+ photos for the one I just took a second ago, which should honestly be at the end of the list like it has always been in the past (not somewhere randomly in the middle like they seem to be now). It's just all so frustrating and I was just wondering if anyone has had the same problems with their ipods, recently and if they know any way to solve them.

Also, when I go on to safari, another alert pops up that safari cannot verify the identity of the website, anything that I type in to as common as google.com. It gives me 3 options to either cancel, look at details, and continue. I've looked at the details of the website of Google and it is legitimate the site. Any help?

Ipod touch won't allow purchases

My son's ipod touch will not allow him to make any song purchases eventhough there is plenty of money in our itunes account. Here are the symptoms.
First it was giving him a non-descript error - 1004 I believe. We hadn't synced it in awhile, so we synced it. It also was updated to the latest ios per the instructions. Now when he buys a song, it says it is going into download but then it just disappears without downloading. Luckly it doesn't deduct money from the account. I was able to successfully load an Uno game.
Any suggestions?

I checked and restrictions are off so this is not the problem. I logged out of itunes and restarted my computer. I also reset all the ipod settings just in case. This did not solve the problem. I also noticed that when we go to update an app, it will show that the app is waiting for update, but it never updates. It just evenually goes back to the normal icon without updating.

IPod touch won't let me share my computer music library

I have a new iPod touch 5th generation running IOS 7. I've set up my computer to allow home sharing, but the iPod won't connect to it using wifi. I have an Apple TV, and that will connect to my computer iTunes library with no problems. What am I doing wrong?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

HT1386 I have an older ipod classic with tons of music I collected over several years. I want to add the music from this to my itunes library. When I connect it, I don't see that option. How can I do this?

I have an older ipod classic that I have had for about 5-6 years. I used this to download music from cd's through an older computer that doesn't work anymore. I want to add the music to my current computer I-tune library, but can't figure out how to do it. How do I import this music from my older itunes ipod so that I can then sync some of it with my iphone. Hate to lose all of this music since it took me years to collect and download it.

My itunes will not start in Win XP. I get an error that says MSVCR80.dll can't be found. I am scared if I just reinstall iTunes that I will lose all my music and apps that are in the old itunes. What can I do.

My iTunes will not start in Win XP. I am getting an error that says MSVCR80.dll can't be found. I am concerned that if I just do a reinstall
of iTunes it will overwrite or delete all the music and apps I have on the current app that won't start. When I boot the PC I get the following:
APSDaemon.exe - unable to locate. MSVCR80.dll not found. Reinstalling application may fix this problem. How can I get iTunes started without losing
all my music and apps? Thanks

It won't unless a problem occurs. Back them up, uninstall iTunes and all related components, and reinstall them.
