Why when I have my iPod on Wifi sync, iTunes pops up out of no where even though I'm not syncing my device?

I could have my iPod sitting on the table and I'm on Facebook and out of no where iTunes pops up. Even though I'm not syncing my iPod wirelessly. I just have it on the Wifi sync setting.

but when I select a category there are no words on the screen to choose a selection. the boxes to check are there, but no words!
That's usually a problem with the Segoe UI fonts on your system.
Vortical's suggestion in the following post is a bit of a sledgehammer approach, but it is usually quite effective on XP and Vista systems:

  • Why don't my photos appear as they do in iPhoto on my Apple Computer. Even though I specify to sync all Events, Faces, etc. the iPad 2 is missing Faces categories and the Events are in a different order.

    1) The best way to relocate the iTunes library folder is to move the entire iTunes folder with all subfolders to the new path, then press and hold down shift as start iTunes and keep holding until prompted to choose a library, then browse to the relocated folder and open the file iTunes Library.itl inside it.
    If you've done something different then provide some more details about what is where and I should be able to help.
    2) Purchases on the device should automatically transfer to a Purchased on <DeviceName> playlist, but it my depend a bit on whether automatic iCloud downloads are enabled. If there is a cloudy link then the transfer might not happen. You can use File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. In iTunes you should also check out iTunes Store > Quick Links > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer.
    3) Backup the device, then immediately restore it. In some cases you need to add a restore as new device into that equation. Obbviously not to be attempted until you're sure all your media is in your library. See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device should it be needed.
    4) I believe there is complimentary 1 incident 90-day support with hardware purchases, but no free software support for iTunes itself. AppleCare gets you a different level of support.

  • Why, when I have two PDF file open, is one document faded out?

    Hi All
    I was wondering if someone out there could maybe help me?
    I’m having problems with opening documents in Adobe Acrobat Pro. When I have one PDF file open and I open another one, the one opened later has kind of a grey/black film making it difficult to read.
    I was wondering if maybe anybody out there has had similar problem? Or maybe you know what can cause this?
    Thank you in advance
    Pete

    Which version of Acrobat and which version of Windows do you have?

  • When syncing iTunes with Apple TV (1st gen) some songs and movies will not sync..

    I get the message that these songs and movies are not authorized to play on this computer. The computer is authorized and the songs and movies will play on the computer but will not sync to Apple TV
    Any advice is aproeciated.

    Thanks for the reply WC
    Yes they do.
    They origialnally played just fine. I moved my entire iTunes library to a new computer and now only 62 songs, out of over 2000, and two of four movies won't sync. All songs and movies are in same folders and same format.
    I already selected "keep iTunes media folder organized" and "copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library"
    using iTunes 10.7 and OSX 10.8.2

  • I have lost my I-Phone.  Is there a way to wipe it even though I can not find it?

    I have lost my I-Phone.  Is there a way to wipe it clean on line without access to the phone itself?

    Apple - iPhone 4S - Locate your missing iPhone with Find My iPhone - http://www.apple.com/iphone/built-in-apps/find-my-iphone.html and: iCloud: Find My iPhone overview - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2696
    Note that these features require you have the "Find My" activated before you lose the device, the device be turned on and able to connect to a registered wifi connection (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) or data network (iPhone, iPad), and not having been restored by a finder of the device (if it was really stolen then the thief has probably restored it). If you have activated the "Find My" feature, go to https://www.icloud.com or use the Find My iPhone app - http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-my-iphone/id376101648?mt=8
    Setting up iCloud (requires iOS5) - http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html - includes activating the 'Find My' feature.
    Frankly in the case of a stolen phone this almost never works. Report it to the police.  Change passwords on accounts. Tell your carrier to stop service. Go shopping for a new phone.

  • Why when i unplug my ipod do the songs that I have on the computer come up with exclamation marks

    Why when i unplug my ipod do the songs that I have on the computer come up with exclamation marks

    You need to plug your iPod back in and copy the songs from the iPods memory onto your MBPs hard drive, and then import the songs into your iTunes library from there.
    I'm guessing that before you were simply clicking a song from your iPods memory to play it in iTunes, so whenever you tried to access the song without the iPod plugged in, your MBP couldn't find it.

  • Why when I have an annual Creative Cloud subscription am I repeatedly asked to login to authenticate

    Why when I have an annual Creative Cloud subscription am I repeatedly asked to login to authenticate the subscription - sometimes twice, three times during a single product session usage? It's really out of control with Acrobat Pro where I am routinely asked to agree to a trial subscription. Why, I have a full subscription?? Almost everytime I open a PDF file, I am asked to sign-in - this is a huge time burner and completely ridiculous! This new subscription model is extremely frustrating to deal with day in and day out - please fix this mess.

    I have been having this same problem for the past few weeks.  I ran the subscription with no problems since August of 2013. I agree this is time consuming and frustrating. It has now started to do it with illustrator too.  I am not sure if it started when I updated. 
    I thought I solved the problem last weekend, when I removed an old trial version.  However, I didn't exit Photoshop because it was having this problem and I didn't want to deal with it. My computer updated and restarted and the problem is occuring again.

  • I updated my ipod Touch 4g directly on ipod using wifi. on itunes too it shows ios 6.1.2, but when I try to restore it, itunes downloads the software again. What can I do now?

    I updated my ipod Touch 4g directly on ipod using wifi. on itunes too it shows ios 6.1.2, but when I try to restore it, itunes downloads the software again. What can I do now?

    Let the computer/iTunes download it. That is how Apple has it set up. When you restore via iTunes the IOS is reinstalled on the iPod. Thus, it needs to be on the computer.

  • WHY, when I have nothing plugged in does Windows flag up a USB device that is does not recognise?

    WHY, when I have nothing plugged in does Windows flag up a USB device that is does not recognise?  When I check it a box comes up which offers a diagram that does not tell me which port it is?  How do I check which port/outlet it actually is? Could
    there be software (rather than a USB port) in my system that Microsoft doesn't recognise? The Windows defender scan shows nothing and the Windows reporter said twice now there are 10 problems but they can't report back right now.  Should

    PS What is code 43?  Also it says Broadcom 270 Bluetooth is disabled, what does that do?  Should I enable it, won't it allow Bluetooth access, which I don't need?  The scanning of hardware seems to say Hardware changes may not have been detected
    as well as Unknown Device is not working properly.

    Some phones can only send and recieve SMS messages. If the recipients phone doesn't support MMS they won't be able to recieve a text with a photo.

  • Why do I have my husband's songs in iTunes Match?

    I've just signed up for an iTunes Match account and now I can see all my husband's music in the Cloud.
    We have separate iTunes accounts and separate Apple IDs. The only thing I can think of is that we have at some stage shared our iTunes libraries - even though his Mac hasn't been on since I signed up to iTunes Match.
    This isn't exactly a problem (though I now have to trawl through all his weird music LOL) - but I AM curious as to why this happens. Any ideas?

    No - sorry, my bad, I wasn't clear.  I'm talking about tracks that I've never had in my library which he has in his. We have separate iTunes accounts (though they share the same credit card).
    I have only just (in the last 48 hours) signed up for an iTunes Match account.
    When I checked my music on the Mac in iTunes, I could see many tracks I've never had in my library but I know he does - such as the kids' music he uses for work.  The tracks all have the symbol beside them which indicates they're in the Cloud. I'm just puzzled that my iTunes account would know what he has in his library and make it available to me, when his computer is not even switched on!
    It's true that when we both have our Macs on, we share our respective iTunes libraries via the home wifi connection. Is iTunes somehow remembering that, even though we're not sharing at the time?
    Like I said, it's not really a problem (except of course now I have even more stuff to scroll through in my library LOL!) - but I'm confused.
    Thanks anyway!
