Why can't I use the Column Browser for my iPod when connected to the computer?

In iTunes 11, I can use the Column Browser while viewing my music library on the computer. But it's inexplicably not available for viewing the music on my iPod when it's connected to the computer to sync.
The Column Browser is the simplest, easiest, most elegant way for me to review what's on my iPod, and create Playlists from my music and CD books. It was available in 10.7 and is available on the computer, why not the iPod????!!!???
Why mess around changing something that isn't broken - after all these years why can't that option still be available? It doesn't have to be the default, just be available. Will I have to downgrade to 10.7 yet again????
And you don't even have a relevant category for me to choose from below!! It makes sense to me that you provide a general "Using iTunes" category.

Thanks for your reply, but I've already done that and the Column Browser options are completely grayed out. I've taken a screen shot and hope I can paste it in here. You'll see I have the sidebar open. That's the way I prefer to deal with iTunes.
This happened after I updated to iTunes 11.0.4. Perhaps that changed the setting options. I think I had the Column Browser option prior to that, but I just got a new iPod and I was busy loading stuff, so not completely sure if it worked before the update. But I think I would have noticed, because it bugs me so much not to have the option.

Hi, why can't I use the iMessage on my iPhone? I've already had my apple id email on it but it keeps saying "waiting for activation" always like that. No progress. Could anybody help me on this? Cheers

I have an old iPod Touch with old software that can no longer be updated:
iOS version 6.1.6
I've been searching for a solution to my iMessage login problem for months and tried everything from those frustrating links and all the tips from other users.
Here is what finally worked:
1) Settings > Privacy > Location Services > On
2) Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically > On
3) Reboot device until Apple logo appears
4) Settings > Messages > Sign In

Why can't i use the radio on my nano 7g with bluetooth

Why can't I use the function of menu item 'issue delivery output'?

why can't I use the function of menu item 'issue delivery output' in main screen of delivery note?
And at the same time I can't use the button of printing in main screen of delivery note.
the main screen of delivery note I mean above is in screen of maintaining shipping data instand of the first screen of VL02N.
TKS in advance.

Hi,
Because delivery will be having header level output and item level output. So if u try to print through main screen then system will not know whether it is header related or item related. That is the reason it is only print output at header level or item level but not in main screen.
I think u may have doubt like how billin will be issued output through Main screen. Because for billing both header and item level data are same..

Why can't I use the Basic brush tool?

I'm learning the ropes of drawing in Illustrator and I've fallen at the first hurdle. Why can't I use the Basic brush tool? Whenever I select the brush tool and use the 'Basic' brush type, the cursor turns into a hashed circle indicating I can't draw. If I load other brushes, I can draw with other brush types, but I can't use the Basic one. If I select the Basic brush when I have other brushes loaded and try to draw with it, it always defaults to a different brush! I don't understand why.
On a related matter, I'm also having trouble changing brush size. I know that using the [ and ] keys changes brush size, but I have no idea what the values are. If I try this in Photoshop, I can see the brush size in the Options bar, but in Illustrator it doesn't appear anywhere! Not in the Brushes palette, the Stroke palette or the Appearance palette. Where can I see the brush size?

Glitcher,
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Why can't I use the landscape feature for iPhone 5? It only works in limited apps. I feel as though I wasted my money since I prefer to use my phone in landscape mode.

Why can't I use the landscape feature in all of the apps? It seems like a waste of money since I prefer to use the landscape feature.

It is up to the app developer to decide if the app should work in landscape mode or not. This is also true on Android phones, by the way.

Exporting to Facebook - why can't I use the old plug-in?

It's nice that iPhoto '09 tried to help us with the Facebook exporter built-in. But why couldn't they make it useful? Why can't I tag people before I upload them? Why can't I upload photos to an existing album? I wouldn't mind so much, but they seemed to have disabled the existing (working) plug-in that was available. So now I have to export the pictures to my desktop and upload them through Facebook. Hmm...doesn't seem too user-friendly.

Exporting to Facebook - why can't I use the old plug-in?
Have you considered asking the author of the plug-in?
It's nice that iPhoto '09 tried to help us with the Facebook exporter built-in. But why couldn't they make it useful?
Millions upon millions of people do find it very useful
Why can't I tag people before I upload them?
You can - have you watched the iPhoto tutorials?
Why can't I upload photos to an existing album?
You can IF the album was created by iPhoto
Do you have an iPhoto question that one of the iPhoto users who volunteer here might be able to help with?

It says in the corner of my itunes account that i still have money from my itunes card that i redeemed, but when i try to buy a song, the billing info. pops up. Why can't i use the money on my card?

It is simply asking you to verify your account info. Select None for the CC.
It will still pay with your gift card balance.

Why can I not use the channel name, which is obtained from the function of DAQmx Task, as the input of the channel name for the function of Get Channel Information of DAQ?

Why can I not use the channel name, which is obtained from the function of DAQmx Task, as the input of the channel name for the function of Get Channel Information of DAQ?

Not a lot of details here, but my guess is this isn't working for you because you are wiring in the task to the Active Channels Property and not the actual Channel Name. I have attatched a screenshot of what I believe you are trying to do. The Task has 2 channels in it, so I need to index off one of the channels and wire it into the active channels input of the Channel Property node. Then I can read information about that channel

Why can't I use the iPad as my smartphone?

My basic question is,why can't I use the IPad as my smartphone? Ipad is doing everything what a smartphone does, except the calling facilities. Since IPad can connect to the Internet(WiFi), and via VOIP services like skype or yahoo, we can very well connect to any mobile or landline phone. So what I'm asking is, Ipad can very well provide some User interface as phone does and internally it can use the VOIP to connect to phones. Share your views.

My basic question is,why can't I use the IPad as my smartphone?
You can as long as you don't want to make calls over a mobile phone network as the iPad doesn't have the hardware to make calls that way.
At least we'll be able to recognise you on a call:

Why can't I use the 16GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm) with 24GB flash Hard Drive Acceleration Cache?

I tried to customize the Envy 15t but I can't proceed on upgrading the following.
Error
24GB SSD Acceleration Cache requires purchase only up to 8GB System Memory.
Why can't I use the 16GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm) with 24GB flash Hard Drive Acceleration Cache?
Can HP explain this to me? or any one? please

Hi,
The 24Gb cache drive will store manything and normally it will need at least twice the size (capacity) of RAM. Double 16Gb is 32Gb therefore 24Gb is not big enough.
