When moving notes, iPod not found

Hello,
I like to put notes on my 4th gen iPod by dragging them into the notes folder under the iPod shown in My Computer.
Unfortunately, this icon is only there when I'm syncing my music in iTunes. So, for every note I want transfered I have to click 'sync' and then work like a madman dragging and dropping before it disappears.
How can I stop my iPod semi-ejecting itself like this?

my 4gb ipod nano is not seen in itunes so i cannot
restore it back to factory settings. I have done the
5r's resetting it putting it in disk mode,
reinstalling itunes everything. I downloaded ipod
updater software but it says that I MUST use itunes
and stops running. I cannot restore my ipod without
using itunes but itunes dosent see it. My ipod is
found in my computer and the ipod itself seems to be
working but I think the ipod lost some files itself.
How do I get around restoring it??!!! i tried using
my sons ipod and itunes sees it no problem and works
great. also when i plug my ipod in itunes starts
but never shows the ipod in devices.
acer 7100   Windows XP  
I am having same problem---ipod not recognized and not shown as a device
Dell Latitude D800   Windows 2000   Laptop. I've tried about everything discussed. recently had virus scan installed--cpuld that be problem? Help!

  • MacBook making clicking sound when moved?! not the sms HELPP

    Today, i was using my MacBook and it started to make a clicking like sound when moved from side to side. I have had my MacBook for less then a week so I have no idea what could have happened. The computer has not beed dropped or anything! It is not the sms because I turned it off to see if the noise would still happen, and it did. Also this happenes when the computer is off. I cannot take it to a store because the closest one to me is an hour away.

    Normally, a clicking sound would be an indication of a bad HD or if the Superdrive is trying to read a damage disc. Personally, since its a week-old computer, I'd take a one hour drive than taking the chance of the HD failing after the warranty expired. You can try calling Apple as well (1800APPL). You should still have FREE phone support.

  • When my ipod nano is plugged into my computer it says ipod not found

    My ipod nano no longer connects to computer.  It still works when playing elsewhere and Itunes is working as well.  It is exempt from firewall so that's not the problem.  Not sure if my ipad or iphone will connect.  I am afraid to test them at this point.  I tried another usb cable (Apple) so that's not the problem.  Diagnostics says ipod not found.

  • I tried to set up my new ipod shuffle and a error message popped up saying Ipod not found cannot update.  I can't sync my ipod now but it is showing on itunes.  What should I do?

    I bought a new 4th gen ipod shuffle and tried to sdet it up last night.  I installed the latest itunes software and started to sync my ipod, but error boxes kept popping up saying ipod not found cannot sync.  It was showing in itunes, then it would disappear, then it would come back.  I am not very good with computers so I don't know what to do.  Can someone help?

    Do you have an iCloud backup?  If you backed up your old phone to iCloud you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Erast All Content & Settings (which will erase your phone), then go back through the setup screens again and when prompted choose Restore From iCloud Backup.  However your backup won't contain everything in your iTunes library (such as your music) so you'll need to be able to sync with your computer unless you purchased everything from iTunes and want to redownload it to your phone.

  • Ipod not showing up on itunes or my computer.it recharges when i connect it

    Ipod not showing up on itunes or my computer.it recharges when i connect it but it dosent show up under devices so i cant sync any music!!the screen on the ipod would usually say "connecting"or"do not disconnect"but it dosent say that anymore!!Ive been trying to fix it for DAYS but i cant find a good enough solution.PLZ HELP!!(p.s. i have a 4th generation nano)

    Hey there,
    A file or some files may have become corrupt somehow during connecting or disconnecting the unit. Try putting it into Disk Mode and see if that helps. To put it into Disk Mode, hold the Menu and Select buttons until the Apple logo appears. When it does, immediately press and hold the Center an Play/Pause buttons until you see a confirmation that your iPod has been put into Disk Mode.
    If you are able to do this, it may be a good idea to restore the iPod to its original settings. Keep in mind that by doing this you are erasing all the music and files from your iPod so make sure they are backed up on your computer somewhere. More on restoring your iPod can be found in the Apple document below.
    Hope this helps.

  • Mouse pointer does not stick on fader when moving it

    Using Logic Pro 9. If I grab any fader, the mouse pointer turns into a small dot. If I then drag the fader up or down, the dot does not stick on the fader. Instead, I find I have to drag the dot well above or below the fader to make big adjustments. Is there any setting to control this? Or is this just how it is in Logic. In all other audio applications I've seen, the mouse pointer sticks on the fader when moving it up or down.

    No - haven't found a fix for this yet. I can only guess that maybe it wasn't as noticeable when display screens weren't so big. I'm running on a 27" iMac so the effect is quite pronounced. I supposed it could be argued that it gives you a finer grain of control to make small changes - but it really takes away from the 'feel' like you are moving a real fader.

  • When moving my iphone from one computer to another, the apps do not follow and if I purchase an app on the new computer, it seems that all previous apps on the iphone will be lost   How do I import the previous apps to the new computer?

    When moving my iphone from one itunes computer to another, the apps installed on the original computer do not show on the new one.  How do I get those apps to be recognized on the new computer without deleting them all from my iphone as it asks. 

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • Have ipod nano 5th generation..will not sync dognostics in itunes says no ipod touch found...its a nano pass all other test

    i have a ipod nano 5th generation. use to work fine now will not sync. have done the 5rs several times all that got me was no songs on my ipod at all. have latest version of itunes. when run diognostics test on itunes pass all but says no ipod touch found. whay is it saying no touch when its a nano? I will never purchase another ipod only worked until the warnety ended.

    Although you used the new USB 3.0 port, the actual connection speed is still USB2.0, as the iPod Dock connector, does not have the 10 times faster USB3.0 signal pins, the connection speed is still 480Mbits/s
    I assumed that you have tried the other USB 2.0 port to no success..
    Can you do the iPod Disk diagnostic as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but helps in troubleshooting.
    Have a nice day!

    You need to sync the app to the iPod

    Is the app compatible with your model iPod and iOS?
    Are any Restrictions set that would prevent installing the app on your iPod? Settings>General>Restrictions

    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Have you successfully synced aps to this iPod from this iTunes library before?

  • Error for open process order when BOM alternative is not found

    Dear colleagues,
    When I open process order. BOM alternative is selected according to the production version. But when  BOM alternative is not found system gives only information message and I can open process order, I want to prevent open process order when there is no BOM alternative according to the production version. Because the Bom can be deleted after creation production version.
    Thanks for your helping,

    Hi,
    U need to use an enhancement at the creation of order to check the active status of the bom and restricting the order creation when BOM status is inactive.
    see whether following enhancement is useful for your scenario:
    PPCO0006 Enhancement & EXIT_SAPLCOZF_003
    Please confirm.
    Regards

  • How can I be certain the contact list in my iPod touch updates my computer Outlook contact list when I sync and not go the other way? The options in iTunes are not specific enough.

    How can I be certain the contact list in my iPod touch updates my computer Outlook contact list when I sync and not go the other way? The options in iTunes are not specific enough. In other words, I want to replace the information in my computer Outlook contact list with the data from my iPod touch. 

    How is your iPod configured to sync music from your iTunes library?  In other words, what options and configurations do you have enabled from under the iPod's Summary and Music configuration panes in iTunes?

  • Here goes. My iPod touch has all my songs on it. I have changed computers several times and iTunes has a library of similar but not as many songs as iPod. When I plug iPod in ans go to sync it says that iTunes library will replace iPod songs.

When I plug iPod in ans go to sync it says that iTunes library will replace iPod songs. I don't want this to happen I want the I pod songs to sync with iTunes. What do I do?

    That really does not work since music is not included in the backup.  See:
