If your iPod or iPhone has never been used with iTunes, no library was created on your device. That is why an error message stating that no library is found on your device appears. You can fix this problem by following these simple steps:

  1. Connect your iDevice to your PC;
  2. Open iTunes;
  3. Add a track;
  4. Synchronize your iPod with iTunes.

You have successfully created a library on your device and you can use it with all CopyTrans programs.

If you don’t want to install iTunes on your computer and if you prefer to use CopyTrans Manager to organize your iPod or iPhone, you can use iTunes on any computer you want (friends, family, colleagues…) to sync the iPod for the first time. CopyTrans programs work independently from iTunes libraries.

From time to time, CopyTrans Manager creates automatic backups of your iPod/iPad/iPhone library. Therefore, if you have already used your device with this program, you can recover one of your previous libraries.

Important: If your iPod / iPhone / iPad has already been synchronized with iTunes and the above error message appears even though your iPod / iPhone / iPad library is not empty (i.e., contains at least one track), please DO NOT synchronize it with iTunes as it may cause a complete data loss.
