When my ipod is plugged into my computer music disappears, sometime it tries to upload songs, clears my playlists, and can't locate the songs files. All the same songs are in my Itunes library on my computer. What can i do?
When I plug my Ipod into my computer it shows all my songs on it as reloading onto the device,
and sometimes it can't locate the files or they are just gone. All my songs are in my Itunes library
on my computer, and I do have it in my settings not sync the Ipod with my computer so I can
manage the content myself. It has happened multiple times.
I have cleared my Ipod off as well as my computer, and put all the music back on without seeing
any improvement. And as of today when I tried again it shows some songs on there but with 3 copies
of the same song trying to upload onto my ipod. And have of my playlist where empty. I am getting
frustrated and don't know what to do. Help.

When I clear my history, Firefox clears my browsing and download history even though this checkbox is not checked. It didn't use to do this. What can I do to fix this? I believe the problem started with the last Firefox update.
Do you mean the "Form autocomplete" feature?
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history" > "Remember search and form history"

Please help... I've been trying to get rid of a ton of unwanted music on my iPhone 4S. The music I had marked in iTunes to sync to my phone was not the only music showing up. In my attempts to get rid of the unwanted music, I decided to delete all the music on my phone. Even after unchecking the "Sync Music" tab, there were still 3 songs left as well as my previous playlists. So, I deleted the playlists... which appears to have simultaneously deleted the playlists from my iTunes library! Also, I can not get rid of the remaining songs no matter what I try!! Please help!!!
If you keep the 4s and send back the 4 you ARE stealing their device. If the decide they want the device back, send them the device that they purchased.
Switching SIMs is irrelevant to the discussion. -
someone please help me!
The ipod is not a backup device. The music sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases: Without syncing:File>transfer Purchases
Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one. -
HT1369 All my Apple stuff are not working with my new window 8, what can I do?
I have switched Windows 7 to Windows 8 two days ago, but I did not have any back up, therefore I lost everything from the harddrive, now I try to download videos again to all my Apple stuff, but I can not do that, how come? Please help, thank you.
Move the content from the old computer to the new computer, failing to do so is extremely unintelligent as is not having a backup.
Not all content is available for redownload from iTunes depending on the country that you are in. -
Why can't I open PDF files all the time?
OS X has rendered my protools software as useless. Now my computer also opens MS word & excel on start up. Sluggish to open microsoft office... This is better?
I'm using a macbook pro 2.4 GHz Intel corei5, 4 GB 10667 DDr3, OS 10.9. Before OS X, everything worked fine. Since I installed OS X, Microsoft applications are very sluggish. When I turn on my computer, sometimes it takes up to 5 minutes for MS word or excel documents to even show up in my menu when I open files with said documents in them. And sometimes when I start my computer, it automatically opens a blank excel doc AND an MS word blank doc. When I download PDF's from emails, it will open them only a few times, then it won't. I have to re-download the PDF just to open it, (mind you I usually move the document into the applicable file. Not that anyone can help with this issue, but ever since I downloaded OS X, my protools software doesn't work, and it won't recognize the library of sounds I purchased from reason adapted software. $1000's of wasted dollars. But just ask the people at mac, this OS is the best... Har!

Can I locate an .InDD file via the Folio Builder?
Hi everyone! With InDesign CS6, I've created a presentation and shared it with 6 people via the DPS and Adobe Content Viewer. Now I have an edit to make and the results are not showing up when I preview on desktop or the iPad connected to the computer. I'm thinking I may have the wrong InDesign file open since I created different versions while troubleshooting some other problems (although I'm 99% sure I have the right one open). Is there a way I can use the Folio Builder to point me to the right InDesign file? Much like how the Links palette tells me where an image lives in my hard drive.
Thanks!I found what I'm looking for. In the Folio Builder, go down to the Article view, click the drop down menu arrow, choose Relink. That will give the path of the InDD file. Or in my case, since I renamed the InDD file, this confused the Folio Builder into thinking the file no longer exists. So the Relink option also allows me to point the Article to the appropriate file.
What's interesting is even though InDesign doesn't know where the file is at, it still retains the entire Folio. -
Missing Playlists when transferring itunes library to new computer
I have moved my itunes files from my old computer to my new computer. I went into Preferences to link to the new file, but the library and songs do not show up in itunes. I went through the files and added the songs manually to the library, but the playlists are not there? What did I do wrong? Also, what should my response be when the window pops up when I connect my ipod? Should I select no or yes when it asks if I should change the link?
Please check this out, it'll help you transfer everything properly:

Hello! I have one iTunes library on my iPod and one iTunes library on my computer. When I connect my iPod touch to my PC, however, I cannot find any files in my iPod except for pictures. How can I find the music files so I can add them to my iTunes?
You can't do that.
And before you decide to store any music that you own on a computer at work, talk to your IT department. Many organizations do not permit it for legal reasons. Standard policies are that anything stored on company owned computers is the property of the company. It could not be legally stored on their machines unless you transfer the licenses and all copies, physical and digital, to the company, meaning you no longer own the music. If they were to be audited and could not prove that they own the music, they would be subject to copyright violation penalties. Just use your iPod when you're at the office if you want to listen to music. -
I am in the process of trying to transfer my iTunes library from one computer to another. Some of the music/film info has been edited (by me) in my library (using get info). When put onto new computer (following apple's instructions- using an external hard drive) the info has gone back to how it was before i edited it.. Help!?

My iphone 5s fell from my hand and went off, It refused coming up again. I always got the massage when ever i plug it on itune( iphone recorvery mode) Please what can i do?
<E-mail Edited by Host>Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting.
If this does not help, try to connect in recovery mode, explained here:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
If still no luck, you'll have to contact Apple Support to get it serviced:

Cannot copy my itunes library to new computer
Hey everyone, need some help. I just got a new computer, and I saved my itunes library to my ipod as instructed by the support area on this website. I loaded Itunes on my new computer and then followed the instructions to copy the library to my new computer. However, it's not working and I don't know what I am doing wrong. I moved the Itunes music folder under my documents on the C drive to the desktop. Then I plugged in the ipod, closed itunes, found the Itunes folder on my ipod from the drive under my computer. I can see the music transfering, however when I open Itunes, the music isn't there. I have tried opening the library file from Itunes, but nothing happens. Can anyone help me troubleshoot?
Thanks!Go to the top of this page, click "Support", then type "move itunes library" or similar into the search bar.

If I imported a CD into my iTunes library from one computer how can I listen to it from another computer? I imported music from a CD into my compter at work and when I got home and went to my iTunes account none of the songs were in my library. I also noticed that on my Work computer there were a couple songs that I had to click on the little 'cloud' icon before I could listen to them (these were not songs I imported they were songs that were already in my library). Not sure if this makes semse...help.

My question is since I have imported them into my iTunes library from one computer why can't I access them from my iTunes library from another computer that I have authorized to access whats in my library? Is there no way to import songs only once into the library and then access them from all my authorized computers?
Only if you have iTunes Match or of the computers are on the same local network.
