Using new shufflw with itunes 6

Can I use a brand new shuffle with itunes 6? I hate 7 but when I connect the shuffle it says it needs the itunes update to 7? Can I format the new shuffle for itunes 6? Thanks!

New iPods need iTunes 7.0.2 minimum, to funcion properly.

  • Using New ipod with itunes 6.5

    I just got a new 30gb ipod video and i do not want to install itunes 7.0 (due to all the problems and things its been having) and when i plug my ipod into my computer and open itunes i get the error message " The ipod can not be used because it requires itunes version 7.0 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of itunes" Is there any way i can make my ipod work with itunes version 6.0.5.20. and not updating to Itunes version 7.0

    No. If your MacBook has an Intel processor you can update to OSX 10.6.8 and then install the latest iTunes.
    A 5G iPod with iOS 7 requires that if you have a Mac you have OSX 10.6.8 or later.
    You can get 10.6.8 here:

  • Can you use new Nano with iTunes 6?

    I'd like to get the new iPod Nano, but I have Mac OS 10.2.8, so I can't get iTunes 7. It says on the system requirements that I need 7, but is it really necessary? (i.e. is it possible to use the new iPod Nano with iTunes 6?)

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    While I haven't tried, I would image the answer is no.
    Usually when iPods are released with a new iTunes version, they aren't made to be/are made not to be compatible with previous iTunes versions.
    It may work, but I can't be sure either way (someone else may have tested this).
    In the past, even if iTunes updated the iPod, there tended to be problems syncing.

  • Sync used new iPad with iTunes w/o setting as new device or restoring

    Hi,
    few weeks after using new iPad that never synced with iTunes (backing up to iCloud), i want to sync iBooks and Aperture photos from iTunes library.
    But, when i connect my iPad to iTunes using usb cable, there are only two choices: Set as new device or restore from older backup. I dont want to sync anything but iBooks and photos. What could i do?

    Hmm, is Whitson's iPad the current name of the device, or an earlier iPad? Does that image you've shown occupy the entire iTunes window or is the usual column of library sources and playlists shown down the left-hand side. If the list is there then the iPad should appear as a device that you can right/option/cmd-click on. Failing that with all your purchases having come from the store you should be able to set up as new device and then reacquire all your store content but that would lose any data and settings. I suppose that after restoring as new, then backing up to the machine, you could then try restoring the backup from the cloud, and then if needed go through the original process as I suggested.
    You might find that if you opt to set up as new nothing actually changes until you choose some content to sync, which may give you the opportunity to use the process I've previously outlined. Sorry I can't be clearer but I know that method has worked for a few people who have had to switch computers after a crash. I'm not personally familiar with the process under your precise circumstances.
    The "cut the cord" feature which allowed you to set up the device without connecting to a computer is all well and good but if you have to go through this sort of effort when the time comes that you want to hook up your device to a library on your computer it becomes a complete nightmare.

  • How come I can't put music on my ipod? I already have a fair amount of music on my ipod but I have enough space for more. I am using a new computer with itunes and it is telling me if I wasnt to put the new music on my ipd i need to erase my ipod HELP!

    Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
    - Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
    - Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.
    To move mdia to the new computer see:

  • De-authorizing itunes? Several of my authorized pc's have died, and have no way to deauthorize iTunes on them. Now I am unable to synch purchases on my Iphone to new computer with iTunes because I already have 5 computers authorized. What can be done?

    Several of my authorized pc laptops and desktops have completely died over the years, and have no way to deauthorize iTunes on them. Now I am unable to synch purchases on my Iphone to new computer with iTunes because I already have 5 computers authorized. What can be done?

    Deauthorise all to reset to zero, then authorize again.
    Following quote from Apple Support:
    If you need to authorize your new computer and are unable due to already having five authorized computers, you can deauthorize all computers by doing the following:
    Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
    If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
    Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
    In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.
    Note: You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than two authorized computers. If you need assistance on using this feature, please contact iTunes Store support via email (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/).

  • HT1386 I cannot find how to keep previous photo albums loaded on Ipad when syncing new ones with iTunes. The old ones are wiped out every single time

    I cannot find how to keep previous photo albums loaded on Ipad when syncing new ones with iTunes. The old ones are wiped out every single time

    If it's not too late, see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. As long as you have a backup of the device when the device still held your photos you should stand a chance of recovering them using a tool such as iPhone Backup Extractor.

  • HT1535 how do I move my music from my ipad to a new computer with itunes?

    how do I move my music from my ipad to a new computer with itunes.  I have already done the purchases

    If you want to copy music off then File > Transfer Purchases will only copy iTunes purchased music off the iPad. To copy music bought from other sources and/or copied from CDs then you will need to use a third-party program to copy them off - see the page that I linked to for some examples.
    There is some help on this page for syncing to a new computer : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

  • Can anyone help with associate my new iPhone with iTunes? My other old devices are there, but I see only how to delete one, not how to add one.  Thank you.

    Can anyone help with associate my new iPhone with iTunes? My other old devices are there, but I see only how to delete one, not how to add one.  Thank you.

    iTunes Match is a subscription system that allows you to upload your own music (e.g. coped from CDs) to the cloud so that it shows (in the cloud) on your devices and computers without having to sync/copy it.
    Automatic downloads allows to, for example, buy an app on your computer's iTunes and have it automatically download on your phone without having to connect and sync it or go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your download and download it yourself - but doing that, going to the Purchased tab and redownloading an app, should get it associated.
    But no, I'm not aware of any problems that not having it associated causes.

  • I need to export photos from my ipod touch that was synced to my old PC which crashed.  I have a new PC with itunes.  My itouch is backed up to it now but I don't want to sync it because it warns that my itouch content will be erased.  Help!

    My old PC crashed.  I now have a thousand or so pictures on my itouch and nowhere else.  I have backed up this itouch to my new PC with itunes.  I want to move or copy the pictures from my itouch to a folder on my new PC.  The older photos do not show when I look at the folders, just a handfull of new pictures that were saved by game apps on the itouch.  What is the best way to do this?

    The photos are on the ipod.  Photo sync will erase them.  I need a way to extract them from the ipod, or to.extract them from the ipod backup that is who knows where on my PC.
    I've been searching for an app to do that with no luck.  They all seem to want a newer OS than is on my ipod yet I have the most recent update installed.
