Where did my iPod image Go on my desktop???

This has been a....learning experience? I just got a new iMac and have accidently been using my iPod to transfer photos over. I say accidently 'cause I didn't want it to and now I seem to have lost a bunch of photos on both computers, old and new. Grrrr. It seems to automatically start f'ing things up once I plug the iPod in. While this is happening, I'm scrambling to shut off the automatic updating feature. Am I really, really dense or is there no way to turn this feature off until you plug your iPod in?
But that's not the question I really wanted to ask. One adorable photo of my adorable son only seems to be on the iPod. Why it went away on both machines is beyond me but there it is. Well, if I can just open up the iPod image on the desktop, I can find what folder it's in and burn that to a CD. Or something; I just want that one photo for a Christmas card. However, the mounted iPod image immediately disappears after it's done updating. (Which is blazingly fast on this new iMac, btw!)
How can I look around in my iPod or is there a simpler solution? I've got to believe there is.
Thanks.

You can use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on a Mac hold down the Option and Command (⌥ and ⌘ Apple) keys. This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and it will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer: iTunes Keyboard Shortcuts for OSX

Enable the iPod for disk use and it will stay mounted until you manually eject it: Using your iPod as a storage drive

Where did deleted iPod files go?

Hi there! Any and all help with this issue I recently stumbled upon would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
I purchased my first iPod in February thinking that it would hold all of the music from my CDs. After uploading them, it did not. So, I deleted some music and decided to keep those files in a separate personal file folder so that one day, when iPod comes out with an even higher memory iPod, I could upload the songs that I deleted. Now, when I just looked in that file folder, all of my files are GONE! Where did they go?
I just want to be able to keep track of the files I delete so that I can one day upload them.
Thanks again!
Sincerely,
Dan

Anyone able to help? I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

Where Did the iPod Preference Settings Go?

I can't find the iPod settings that use to be under Preferences, specifically the ones that allowed you to select the number of podcasts to sync to my Touch i.e., "download most recent", or " keep last three unplayed".
Have the settings been moved and I'm just overlooking them?
Thanks !
Chuck :- )

Found 'em.

Where did the iPod shortcut button go when you double click the home button and scroll to the left?

After upgrading to iOS 4.3.2 I have noticed that when I double click the home button the multitasking tray pops up when you scroll to the left the ipod shortcut is no longer there, it has been replaced by a safari shortcut. Is this right??

Reset
Have you tried rebooting the device? Hold down on the sleep and home buttons until the Apple logo appears on the screen. If this fails, connect it to a power source and try again holding them for at least 20 seconds.
Reset Home Screen
Reset All Settings
Reset all settings on Device. On your Device, open Settings, then navigate to “General” in the left-hand pane. Scroll down and tap Reset, then select “Reset All Settings.” This will delete any stored WiFi passwords and Appleid login information, but can result in a more stable function. On the final screen you will restore your backup or “Setup as new device” to keep current info intact.

Hi all...
I've recently (and reluctantly) upgraded to OSX Lion due to iCloud, since I was heavily using iDisk and MobileMe. What a mistake... since then I've had Logic Express 9 throwing up crash reports everytime I close a session. Luckily, I haven't lost any data.

That didn't work because my version was newer...

You are probably running Logic in 64 bit mode.... the export movie function is not available in this mode

I finally found out about Quiktime not functioning in 64-bit from previous discussions... so, I was able to finish my project in 32-bit. But thanks anyway! -- Andy

Where did "Open Image Sequence" go?

Running QT Player 10.0 -- where did the "Open Image Sequence" command go?

where did the "Open Image Sequence" command go?
It has yet to exist in QT X. Use QT 7 Pro where it has always been.

How do I print a mirror image? Where did the old functionality go?

Within the last several months I was able to print a mirror image of my document to my HP DeskJet F4180 in high resolution. I don't know if it is the new HP drivers, or my new Snow Leopard OS but now I can' figure out how to do it again. I can grab a screen shot in and flip it in Preview but it ends up printing in low resolution.
I have printed mirror images in the past from my PDF applciations and I think from Office 2008 (PowerPoint). I find no documents saved on my hard drive that come up saved as a reverse image so I suspect that I was using a printer feature not an application feature to print mirror images.
Where did this functionality go?

Found it!
Use the check box marked Flip Image. Didn't is say mirror before?

Photos on 30 GB Video iPod - where did they go?

I had 1200 photos on my iPod - now I have 32. I connected my iPod to my new iMac - where did the rest of my photos disappear too? HELP!!! Originally they were on another PC not a Mac. My other PC died.
Could some one explain if I can retrieve them? Thanks. PS

Thanks for the input. I lost 1200 photos then I hope I put them on a disk somewhere. Otherwise, I am up the creek w/o a paddle. (sigh).
By the way, I LOVE my new iMac - so chic and cool! It is amazing!

HT4972 I was downloading $15 worth of iTunes songs from a gift card when my iPod died. Now, no credit & no songs on my iPod. Where did either my $$ go or my songs that I paid for disappear? How do I get one or the other?

I was downloading $15 worth of iTunes songs from a gift card when my iPod died. Now, no credit & no songs on my iPod. Where did either my $$ go or my songs that I paid for disappear? How do I get one or the other? I have 2 of the same iPod's and logged onto both with the same as well as different apple ID's and passwords to each respective iPod and the completion of my downloaded songs has disappeared into thin air. Where did it go? How do I get the credit too re-download those songs to the correct iPod? Please help me!! [email protected]

What happens when you try to redownload them?
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
On a computer go to iTunes>Store>View Account>Sign in and go to purchased history and see if you actually purchased them.
Try redeeming the card again

Formatted second IPOD on Mac Now can't see first one. Where did it go??

Originally formatted Ipod nano on Mac g-5. Worked fine. filled it up and later bought a video ipod. Formatted it on Mac G-5 and all works fine. Decided to give up the nano to the wife who has a windows xp laptop. I know I need to restore nano to original settings in order to format to windows. When I plug nano into my Mac it doesn't see it anymore. Where did it go? And more importantly how do I get it back. (the nano still works fine)

No, the Mac should recognize more than one. I use a Mac at work and we have 6 company iPods that I update frequently.
Reinstalling the latest version of iTunes is always a good idea to see if it helps, and also downloading the latest Updater. If that doesn't help, you might consider trying the nano on someone else's Mac to see if you can get it recognized. You can then try a Restore.
Good luck,
maz

I saw Corey Barker do a demo where he extracted an image from the background, then cleaned up the edge with a process that allowed him to de-fringe it. I can't remember how he did it. And I can't find it. Help!

I saw Corey Barker do a demo a few weeks ago where he extracted an image from the background, then used a technique I was not familiar with to clean it up. You selected the area, then did something that involved going either to edit or select, then there was a dialog box that allowed you to dial it in, depending on the color background you were removing. I can't find this anywhere. Can't remember. It's driving me crazy! If someone can help me find this, I would be very glad and grateful. Thanks! Laura

In technical support, sometimes you have to make educated guesses. I'm sorry that you were offended.
iTunes does prompt when it is going to erase a device, and the message is clear.
She said in her message that she was able to successfully sync the old ipad. This indicated to me that itunes wiping the data was not an issue, because either it had been setup at the apple store (in which case it doesn't actually wipe the ipad despite saying it will*) (*based on a single case I saw), or because the itunes media folder was migrated.
Furthermore, my solution was to tell her how to backup her ipad (by either doing it manually, or as a last resort, by deleting the corrupt backup -- that she couldn't access anyway.)
I got that last part of the instructions from the "Taking Control of your iphone" book which I found samples of when I did a google search for "corrupted backup itunes".
She marked this as a solution, so it worked for her.

Where did my photos go after syncing iPod touch?

I just downloaded a software update for my ipod touch and after it was done syncing, the photos were gone. I found the ipod touch photo folder but there were no pictures in it. Where did they go and how do I get them back? Thanks!

Photos were taken from the ipod touch. I connected to my macbook via USB and downloaded a newer verson for the ipod. When it was all done, the photos were gone. Can't find them. Are they stored somewhere and can I get them back? If not, then how do I prevent this from happening again? Thank you.

Hi all, my first time on. I shared my imovie project to Media Browser. Fine. Then after it downloaded it 'disappeared.' Where did it go? Having found it, how do I then share it with idvd? I am told the image quality will be much better this route.

Hi
I do
• In iMovie - select a project
• Share to Media Browser and as Large (not HD or other res.)
• Close iMovie
• Open iDVD and select to start a New iDVD Project
• Import movie - from Media button - down to the right - and here from Movies
