Upgrading to Nano from a Shuffle

I can't find directions if there are any for this.
My wife has a shuffle with all of her songs on her shuffle and in her itunes account.
Do I just open itunes up plug the Nano in and transfer her songs onto the new Nano or are there some other steps involved I'm not finding?

Hello NJoyinLife,
Are you saying that all the music that resides on your wife's iPod shuffle is no longer in the iTunes library on the computer you wish to sync the new Nano with? If that is the case, then let me know.
Or is all the music still your iTunes library, but you are not sure how to sync a second iPod? If so, you can simply plug the new Nano in, go through the registration and setup process, and sync away to it however you like.
If you are unsure of how to sync multiple iPods with one computer, maybe take a look at some of the methods describe in the Apple support document below.

  • I just bought a new Nano.  How do I transfer the songs from my Shuffle to the Nano and then give the Shuffle to my husband so he can open an itunes account of his own?

    DaisyDoodle,
    The songs on your Shuffle should still be in your iTunes library.  That means you should just be able to connect your Nano to the same iTunes library and sync it just as you would with your Shuffle. There is no limit to the number of iPods, iPads, or iPhones you can sync to one computer, iTunes library, or account.
    As for preparing the Shuffle for your husband, just restore it via iTunes and then let him sync it to his own iTunes library or if its the same iTunes library, let him configure it to sync only his content.
    Here are instructions on how to restore the Shuffle if need be.

  • Changing from a shuffle to a Nano

    Yesterday I switched from a Shuffle to a Nano. I removed Itunes and all related info from the shuffle and downloaded new software that was included with the Nano, basically I started from scratch. For some reason when I buy a song from iTunes, it won't let me download to my Nano (my Nano was already connected to my computer). What gives?

    Thanks for your input. I am fairly new at this iPod stuff, but I like to think I am pretty computer literate. When I "re-downloaded" the software, the songs I previously purchased did download into my nano. Amazingly, Apple still recognized my profile, etc. After I let the nano sync, I purchased a song and I could not "drag" it from my library or puchased area into the nano. Should I do the same thing you mentioned about deautorizing?

  • Upgrading to mini from shuffle

    I am thinking of upgrading from my shuffle to the mini. Will I be able to transfer my library and playlists to the Mini?

    Lori,
    As Long as Your iPod uses the Automatic Sync, you won't have to drag and drop songs to iPod... It will update itself each time You plug your ipod to your computer and open iTunes.
    There's no special way actually, simply install your iPod Mini software with the installation CD that Comes with The iPod mini and You are ready to gO!.

  • IPod Nano and iPod Shuffle not recognized by my iMac

    I'm new to Mac and just purchased a Nano and a Shuffle.  I spent the weekend transferring music from iTunes to both devices without any issues.  A few hours later I went to transfer additional songs and my Mac would not recognize either device.  The screen on my Nano says"Connected - Eject before disconnecting".  My shuffle blinks orange.  That's it...I have reset the Nano and nothing changes.  I'm hoping someone out there can help me.
    Thanks!

    I had this problem with my MacBook. What finally worked was, while connected, toggling the hold switch on/off/on and then holding down the menu and center buttons until the apple logo appeared and it truly reset itself.

  • How can I prevent my iPod nano from turning on by itself and running down the battery?

    I will arrive at my desk in the morning, stop the podcast I'm listening to, notice by the "play" button appearing on the screen and that absence of audio in my ears that the podcast has actually stopped, hold the big oval button down until the screen goes dark, and set my iPod down on the desk. Every now and again (maybe twice a week) I'll catch the iPod playing. It's usually off playing music (i.e. it's somehow navigated away from the podcast I've been listenting to and ended up in a music shuffle somewhere), and it will continue playing until the battery runs down or until I happen to notice it and turn it off. Doesn't only happen at work, happens anywhere...home, car. Result is that once or twice a week I go to use the iPod and the battery has completely run down.
    How can I prevent my iPod nano from turning on by itself?

    Unplug the headphones.

  • How do i get a nano 6G to shuffle within a playlist for a nike+ run?

    hi,
    does anyone know what i need to do to get my nano 6G to shuffle songs within a playlist during a nike+ run?
    the shuffle seems to work if i just play the playlist (if i tap on the shuffle at the top of the list). so what is the trick to doing that within a nike+ workout?
    never had this problem with my 2nd gen or 4th gen nanos
    from searching this forum, it seems to be a known problem, but i cant find any solutions.
    help!
    thanks in advance
    OzinFrance

    I too would like to know the answer to this!
    I have a lot of music on my nano, and only want to play a certain selection when working out, and I would like this music to shuffle while using nike+, not play in alphabetical order.
    Would be great to get a solution for this! Thanks!

  • I am trying to use itunes, it will not open at all, have uninstalled and downloaded new software and 64bit for windows. i have an old ipod nano from about 5 years ago. anything i can do, even to view my purchases and watch/listen to music etc?

    ok i have a advent roma laptop with window 7. my itunes used to work fine, completely. every time i plugged in my ipod it was ok. recently my ipod was not working so i never bothered with itunes, however i have movies/tv prog that i purchased and would like to view them. i have an ipod nano from about 5 years ago, the problem with thet is, it switches on, but the circular control panel does nothing, all you can do is lock and unlock it - nothing else.
    i tried to download new version of itunes, then uninstalled my origonal version, incase it was corrupted etc, i then again tried to down load new version and also version that is windows 64bit. still when i select the downlaod to open as son as it is finnished nothing happens. and now my desktop shortcut has dissapeared. before when it was there, id double click it, nothing, right click to open it, nothing.

  • TS1363 I was upgrading iPhone OS from 5.1 to 5.1.1 on Win 7 using iTunes 10.6.1.7.  The iPhone hung.  It is no longer visible by iTunes on Win 7

    While upgrading iPhone OS from 5.1 to 5.1.1 on Win 7 using iTunes 10.6.1.7, the iPhone hung.  I could not get iTunes to find it and Win 7 does not see it.
    When I connect the iPhone to the USB, Win 7 issues the welcome sound, but that is it.  The same happens when I disconnect iPhone.
    The Devise Manager has the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver correct without any problem.  I updated this driver called usbaapl64.
    The iPhone is still hung.
    I restarted the iPod service
    I restarted the Apple Mobile Device Service
    I tried to empty and delete the temp directory in C:\users\myname\AppData\Local\ but could not
    The iTunes I am using is the latest version
    I updated the Apple Mobile Device Driver as stated above correctly
    The iPhone is still hung and is not recognized by Win 7 or iTunes, so I cannot restore the OS to the previous working version
    What else can I do to restore the previous working OS on my iPhone 4

    I was connecting the iPhone 4 to a USB 3.0 port.  I was told by Apple Express Support (at US$29.99) not to use USB 3.0 and to use USB 2.1 instead.
    If you are connecting your iPhone to the computer using a USB 3.0 port, disconnect it immediately.  iPhones will lock up if you try to update while  using a connection through a USB 3.0 port.
    Disconnect the iPhone from the computer
    Go to Device Manager and find the connected USB port.  Click the mouse right button and update the driver
    Shut the iPhone by pressing the sleep button and the home button concurrently for some time
    Move the USB cable to a USB 2.1 port or older without the iPhone.  
    Restart iTunes.
    Connect the iPhone
    Your computer should recognize the phone and reloads the correct USB 2.1 driver (Apple Mobile Device)
    Then iTunes should recognize the iPhone and starts reloading the firmware.
    When that is complete it may ask if you wish to restore, naturally you say YES
    iTunes will restore the iOS
    Using iTunes, restore the latest backup to get your data back.
    When all of the above is completed.  Start enjoying your iPhone.
    If the above does not work.  Throw your iPhone out of the window and get a replacement Android phone.

    I upgraded MacbookPro 2009 from 10.6.8 to Yosemite 2 weeks ago. My iphoto is now a nightmare. i went to our local apple retailer but they could not help either. Perhaps someone can help. Beforehand the OS upgrade I made a backup copy of my Iphoto library onto an external hard drive. Lets call it BU with 50GB. I also deleted half of my photos from the default library on my laptop, lets call it DE, now with about 20GB, to gain space. I then upgraded to Yosemite.
    I have also installed since a long time Iphoto Library Manager 3.8.6. (this may be the cause of the problem as it was not upgraded and perhaps thus not compatible with iphoto 9.6 which I have now after the upgrade to Yosemite) It all worked fine before the upgrade, switching in iphoto between the two libraries DE and BU.
    It also worked fine after the upgrade for a few days. At one stage Iphoto asked me to upgrade the iphoto version as it otherwise could not read the photos when I tried to load the BU library into iphoto. I did click yes to upgrade iphoto. As a result I became a brand new but totally empty library, no photos.
    BU was still on the external disc, however the "Master" file was empty. We fortunately discovered all photos were in another file called Old Master, also under BU. We made another copy of the Old Master file onto the external disc. Lucky we did, because shortly afterwards we could not open anymore the BU file thus had no access to anything in there. Now I have 17000 photos in a file called Old Master on my external disc and another smaller library  DE on my laptop. When I tried to import the photos from Old Master into a new iphoto library it was very messy. All events dates were mixed up, many photos were imported twice. I have no idea whether all my 17000 photos have been imported.
    Can anyone suggest what is the most time efficient way? How do I best import my 17000 into a new library ensuring I don't loose any in the process. I do not wish sorting through 17000 photos for a week or so. Shall i also get a new iphoto library version now? Thank you for anything that may work.

    Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
    In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think?

  • Unable to edit my songs in my shuffle, such as deleting songs from my shuffle and adding new songs into it.

    When i first bought my shuffle a few years back, i would use the itunes in my old laptop to add/delete songs from it.

  • Upgrade ONS15454 MSTP from 7.0 to 9.8

    Hi all
    I would like to some help that customer need to upgrade ONS15454 MSTP from version 7.0 to 9.8. So, I may need some help
    1. how to upgrade it ?a
    2. Is it possible to direct upgrade to 9.8?
    3. I saw many file information in cisco web site, and which one i must to download it ? ( ONS 15454 R9.8.0 System Software for MultiService Transport Platform, ONS 15454 R9.8.0 System Software for Multiservice Transport Platform - Lite Version for TCC2P/TCC3 -WSON) I do not know which one is to using
    4. what should i know that my card support version 9.8? In my idea, i think it should be support but i may need confirm or information from this before. (my card have OSC-CSM, OPT-PRE, AD-2C, MXP-10DME and TCCP2)
    5. Have any interrupt between upgrade ? and Is it upgrade in each TCCP2? because that may help when card reset or reboot. And the traffic still flow to another TCC2P.
    Thanks
    V

    1. I try to using your upgrade tool, my ONS15454 is SDH version 7.0  so, I can choose only 9.3 for destination version. It means that i must  to upgrade to 9.3 first and then go to 9.6 and 9.8, Correct?
    yes it is true you go directly to 9.3.0, it is not a multi-shelf node.
    please be sure that your software version is 7.0.0.
    So upgrade path is 7.0.0 to 9.3.0
    2. Is  it possible to upgrade without downtime ? as my understand that  ONS15454 have 2 site (east and west), Can i do upgrade east site before  west site? and when finish upgrade east site and go to upgrade west site  after that, can i ?
    becase as i understand when finish upgrade  per site all card in that site will reboot, so, i think that another  site will take the traffic without downtime. I don't sure that i am  correct or not if you have any mention please let's me know
    no not possible without downtime,
    there will be a traffic hit or 10seconds or less than that, it you are using MXP_MR_2.5G cards without Y-cable protection. same for GE_XP cards there will be a traffic loss for few seconds.
    yes you can upgrade east node and after that upgrdae west node, but not like doing upgrade to 9.8 for one node and another still on 7.0
    3. I don't have multishelf, i just have one shelf per site
    4.  I have plan to upgrade to customer soon, but i may need to give a plan  for them. But right now, i may confuse about the way and solution to  upgrade that include how and impact to upgrade.
    1. There will be a traffic impact on MXP and GE_XP card for less than 10 seconds.
    2. If MXP client ports are y-cable provisioned, than upgrade will be error less, in case of Y-cable protection just lock protection before proceeding to upgrade.
    3. traffic will impact as MXP cards have to do FPGA upgrade also and for this they will take a reboot, but in case of y-cable other card is taking over.
    4. As you have TCC2P card, so always select lite versions, if its SDH than SDH-DWDM.
    5. also if possible, arrange spare TCC2P card, atleast one at each site, just to be on safe side.
    6. here is the path which you have to follow:
    7.0.0 to 9.3.0
    9.3.0 to 9.6.0
    9.6.0 to 9.8.0
    also please feel free to reach for any queries.

    I have upgraded Apple Aperture from version 2 to version 3 and I'm having a problem with the "Highlights and Shadows" adjustment. According to the user's manual, I should have access to an advanced disclosure triangle which would allow me to adjust mid contrast, colour, radius, high tonal width and low tonal width.
    If anyone has any suggestions as to how to access this advanced section, I'd be most grateful.

    Hi David-
    The advanced adjustments in the Highlights & Shadows tool were combined into the "Mid Contrast" slider in Aperture 3.3 and later. If you have any images in your library that were processed in a version of Aperture before 3.3, there will be an Upgrade button in the Highlights & Shadows tool in the upper right, and the controls you asked about under the Advanced section. Clicking the Upgrade button will re-render the photo using the new version of Highlights & Shadows, and the Advanced section will be replaced with the new Mid Contrast slider. With the new version from 3.3 you probably don't need the Advanced slider, but if you want to use the older version you can download it from this page:
