Upgrading to a larger iPod.. can it be done?

I received my iPod mini for a gift two years ago. I love it, but it really does not hold as much music as I would have liked. I have about 3000 songs, three times as many as the iPod mini holds. Does any one know of any offer that the Apple Store has that allows one to "upgrade" to a bigger, preferably 30GB ipod.
Humor me on this if you can,
Dave

1000 songs is about 2 days, 5 hours of continuous playing wihtout ever playing the same song twice!
If you create a smart playlist selecting 3700 MB at random and not played in the last 3 days, you, when you sync this playlist, it will load new songs onto the iPod.
Do this once a week and you'll never get tired of your library as well as rotating it all through the iPod.

Syncing between iPhoto on your iPhone and iPhoto on your Mac is one-way. You can sync selected albums, events, faces, places albums from your Mac to iPhoto on your iPhone using iTunes. This will not delete any albums you created on your iPhone, just add new albums. But albums you create on your iPhone cannot be synced to your Mac.
See this page on how to transfer photos from iPhoto on your iPhone to your Mac:

HT1688 I just got an old Iphone 3g with 4.2.1, i would like to upgrade to the ios5. Can this be done and how?

I just got an Iphone 3g with the version 4.2.1 ios, I would like to upgrade to ios5 so i can run more apps like facebook. The facebook app wants version 4.3 ios and newer. Can i upgrade the 4.2.1 ios to iso5 and how do I do that? Thanks

Only if you have an older version of the facebook app that will work on iOS 4.2.1.
Otherwise, use the facebook mobile site.

Need to upgrade to version 11.1. can this be done remotely or do I have to tac my imac to the apple store?

Need to upgrade my Mac OS 10.5.8 to 11.1 or higher. I cannot access icloud, iphone updates, flashplayer, can't watch movies, or use itunes (I'm sure there are other options I can't access but haven't found them all) unless I upgrade. Can this be done remotely or do I have to take my PC to an apple dealer?

Version 11.1 of what? There is no version of OS X with that number so presumably you are referring to iTunes, which requires an Intel Mac running Snow Leopard or better:
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS upgrade for 24" aluminum iMac -- can it be done?

I have a one-release-previous 24" aluminum iMac (bought about 2 months before the newest one was released). I play a lot of World of Warcraft, and would love to upgrade the video card to the new NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS that works in the current 24" iMac.
Is there a way to do this at all? Apple solution, third-party solution, anything? I've heard rumors, but can't find out anything for sure.
All help appreciated.

Yes, I think it's technically possible, but you'd have to purchase the stock part from an Apple specialist (a corporate store probably wont do it) and have them install it. Expect to pay $300+ for the part alone. Even then, there's no real guarantee that it will work, even though they do indeed use the same form factor. There may be power/thermal issues.

Transferring *PART* of iTunes Library w/ an iPod: Can this be done?

Hi there:
Before I ask the question, here's the summary of the basic sitaution. I've got iTunes 7.71 on my MacBook Pro and I've got a huge music library (approx 256 GB) that I keep on an external firewire drive. (In case it affects things, the overwhelming majority of stuff in the library consists of MP3 rips from my CD collection-- very little is from the iTunes store).
I also have a 60 GB color display iPod that I use to listen to tunes when I'm at the gym, on planes, etc. Since my whole iTunes library does NOT fit on that, I don't try to sync my whole library to the iPod, but just a few selected playlists (which I keep in a playlist folder called "iPod playlists"), which total about 50 GB of songs.
OK, got that? Now: here's the challenge:
I just started work at a new job and I would really like to be able to transfer the iPod part of my library only to the (Windows) machine I have there... the songs/playlists, etc. (I don't want/need all 256 GB of my library there... and in fact, I'm pretty sure there wouldn't be enough room on the machine for it. Also, I don't want to just plug in my iPod or an iPod dock and play from that, as I really like all the additional sorting functionality that iTunes offers, and frankly, I just know I'd be forgetting and leaving my iPod at work half the time if I did that, and be kicking myself later when I had nothing to listen to at the gym..)
So: Can I do this? If so how?
I searched around among the support documents and found very detailed instructions on how one can use an iPod to transfer a WHOLE library from one computer to another (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1329). But that's not what I want to do here-- and the size of my main library precludes it anyway. I ONLY want to transfer the part of my library that I put on my iPod to my work machine.
There ought to be an easy way to do this, I think-- but I can't seem to find it. Or is it impossible? Can anyone out there please point me to info on how this can be done? Or just tell me? Thanks!

Thanks for a clear explanation of your situation. You should be able to use your iPod to do this...
There is one issue. If you currently sync the iPod to a Mac, it will be formatted for Mac (Mac OS Extended aka HFS+). Windows PCs cannot read the Mac format. However, Macs can read and write the Windows format (FAT32). So that is part of the solution.
In order to use the iPod as the means of transferring the files, you'll have to connect it to the PC and Restore it in iTunes. This should erase and initialize the iPod, and change the format to Windows. Don't put any songs on it. You should enable disk use and set not to start iTunes when connected.
Now connect it to your Mac. If iTunes does start and asks if you want to sync it to the Mac, say Cancel or No. Quit iTunes. Hopefully, the iPod appears on your Desktop as an external hard drive. Since you did not load any iTunes songs on it, most of the hard drive's space should be available. Create a new folder at the top level to hold your +to be transferred+ files. You can name it Transfer (or whatever you want). Have a Finder window open so that you can see this folder (or see into the folder).
Start iTunes. Select that "iPod playlist" playlist in the sidebar so the main pane in the iTunes window shows the songs you want to transfer. Do a +Select All+ so that all the songs get selected. Drag all the songs from the iTunes window and drop them onto the Transfer folder. iTunes and Finder should work together to make a copy of all the song files onto the iPod. They will be visible, because you are using the iPod as a hard drive.
Connect the iPod to the PC and use Windows Explorer or My Computer to copy the files off the iPod. If you use the default settings in iTunes, namely the preference (on the Advanced tab) to +Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library+, you can actually run iTunes and drag/drop the whole transfer folder icon from the iPod to the open iTunes window. iTunes should copy the files to the iTunes Music library, and organize based on artist and album. You'll be copying the files and adding the songs to the iTunes library at the same time...!
Once you are done, Restore it in iTunes on the Mac to put it back to the proper Mac format.
You can, of course, substitute a regular external hard drive (formatted on the PC as FAT32) and not have to mess with your iPod's formatting. That would make things a bit easier.

CMR 1-N with very large N. Can it be done?

Hello,
Say I have a Customer bean with a 1-N relationship with CustomerHistory implemented using CMR, then how do I practically add a CustomerHistory entry?
I may have 10000 history records for each customer record. When I need to add a new history record all the examples I have seen would have me do:
collection = getHistory();
collection.add(newHistory);
setHistory(collection);That seems a bit ridiculous to me - I have to retrieve 10000 records just so I can add one!? Am I missing something - is there a more efficient way I should be doing this?
Thanks,
Paul

Having run a few tests it appears that the getHistory() is pretty quick [due to entity caching?], and I should not be doing the setHistory() as that just causes references to all existing history records to be dropped and replaced with those in the collection passed as a parameter to setHistory(). The new history record is added by the container's implementation of collection.add().

Can't open Office after upgrading to a larger HDD.

I recently upgraded my HDD in my Mac to one twice the size. I used the Disk Recovery tool (command + R) to clone my old HDD with all of the software that was installed on it to my new HDD. Now that everything is copied over I tried to open Office for
Mac 2011 and it asks me for the product key.
I am not sure where my original software and product key code is. I have already reformatted the previous HDD and don't have any of the stored information on it.
Is there any way that I can recover or get a different product key that would allow Microsoft Office 2011 to work again for me? I did not know that upgrading to a larger HDD would cause me to lose the Office activation that I already have.
Thank you for your time.

Your iPhone and iPod can share the same iTunes account. Apps can be freely shared and used by one or both devices. You can't use money in your iTunes account to pay for your phone, but purchased apps can be used by both the iPod and iPhone.

I have an IPod Touch and how do I upgrade the OS so I can download stuff that needs IOS 4 or 5 please?

Which iPod touch do you have? If you're not sure, take a look at this -> Identifying iPod models
This Apple article outlines the versions of iOS that will work on each iPod touch.
Notes:
iOS 4.2 is the latest version of iOS for iPod touch (2nd generation).
iOS 3.1.3 is the latest version of iOS for iPod touch (1st generation). If you are using an iPod touch (1st generation) with iOS 2.x or earlier, you can purchase iOS 3 from the iTunes Store. See this article for more information.

I have an older iPod Touch, Model MC086LL with an IOS software version of 4.2.1. Many of the applictions which I had previously purchased were recently upgraded and they no longer can be loaded on my iPod. What is the fix?

Reload older versions from iTunes on a computer, or buy a newer device.

Ipod can not sync photos after iTunes upgrade

I upgraded to iTunes 10.0.1.22 a few days ago. I plugged in my ipod and get the message, "ipod can not be synced. required folder can not be found" and after this message another, "...device cannot be found" I have not deleted or moved any folders.
I have never had trouble with syncing my ipod before. What's different? any suggestions?

if you guys own Aperture, a new update just fixed my issues.
I didn't even think Aperture was an issue since I never selected to sync using aperture. But now my iPhoto options are not grayed out to select partial library options, and the full library sync finally shows my accurate 12.8 gigs of space in the colored device fill bar at the bottom of iTunes sync.
Issue RESOLVED.

HT5527 Dear Apple...I know time marches on but unfortunately you have become useless to those of us who can't upgrade systems or afford Iphones. So my itunes is totally unavailalbe since ipods can't work w/Itunes 9, so all the $ I spent is out the window!

Dear Apple...I know time marches on but unfortunately you have become useless to those of us who can't upgrade systems or afford Iphones. So my itunes is totally unavailalbe since ipods can't work w/Itunes 9, so all the $ I spent is out the window! I have been an apple mac user since the Blue Tower in early 2000. The fact that I recently replace a stolen Ipod Classic and it isn't compatible w/iTunes9 is really screwed up. You have failed many!

What is your question?
