Can't sync with my new laptop

I hope someone can help! I had iTunes on my home computer which my ex husband now has. I have since purchased a laptop & downloaded iTunes but cannot complete a sync with my iPhone4 - it keeps coming up with error messages like "This computer is no longer authorised for apps that are installed on the iPhone. Would you like to authorise this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Store". I click on "Authorise" & then I get another error message stating that this computer is already authorised & that this is the 2nd computer authorised. I try to update to the latest version of 4.3.3 but keep getting an error message that there was a problem downloading the software & that the network connection timed out. It gets up to about stage 4 of syncing (apps) & then crashes again. Can anyone help me please????

Im having the EXACT same problem! Help!

    I have the same problem as the emails go to my iCloud account that I cannot access!!! I cannot answer the security questions as someone else must have set up my iCloud account. Nothing seems to work. It would be great if someone has some ideas as what can be done to recover the situation?

    You cannot merge Apple ID accounts, that has never been supported.
    You can contact the Apple ID Security folks per the listing in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 and they can help reset security questions and get the account working.

  • HT201210 I am trying to update a 4th gen ipod touch to version 6.0 but keep getting "connection cannot be made" errors. I am connected to internet. It is the first time i have updated/synced with my new laptop since getting it for xmas.  my iphone has wor

    HELP
    Help needed to update a 4th gen ipod touch running version 4.3.5 (8L1) to the latest 6.0 version.  When I connect and try to update i keep getting a box which states that a connection error occured and I cannot update.
    I have been given a new laptop for xmas which runs on windows 8, and the new itunes version (which is in itself a hurdle as I am a technophobe!) and this is all becoming a bit fustrating. 
    I have connected, updated and synced my iphone successfully, but just hit a brick wall on the ipod.  (which incidentally maybe where this laptop will end up!!)
    Help if you can, but in laymans terms.......

    Thank you for you input so far.....
    I think we are getting nearer to the solution sort of!
    Let me get this straight...... I have paid for content on itunes, bought the apple devicds in order to play said content, now I have to subscribe $25 for the privilage of playing MY library content on MY other devices. Which wasn't such an issue to do before the new and improved itunes version!!
    Have I got that correct.  I think I cannot associate my other iOS devices with my library because I am unwilling to pay further through the nose!!!???  or am I missing something?
    Thanks
    Frustrated even more now!!

  • IPhone won't sync with my new laptop

    I've just invested in a new Macbook Pro but its not letting me sync my iPhone to it because "it can only be synced with 1 iTunes library" Is there no way to transfer over the iTunes library from my old laptop to this one?

    Copy the iTunes library from your old computer to your new one. There are multiple ways to do this. Transferring it via the iPhone is NOT one of them. The iPhone is not a backup, or data transfer device.

  • Hardrive failure / Can I sync with a new library?

    I bought a new computer...can I sync new library with ipod without "erase and sync"?

    First off Leopard won't let you get rid of the Library or change it you also cannot remove the folders inside of the library or change their name. You can however remove the contents of the folders in the library.
    As far as doing doing harm, yes down right removing the library will do harm, not to your pictures or your music, personal documents however it holds all your preferences, the data in iCal, address-book, mail, bookmarks, user specific widgets and that is just a start of the Apple programs built into the OS and doesn't touch on 3rd party applications.
    So I advise to start in the ~/library/preferences folder, look for toast preferences, then proceed to other preferences. But don't delete them move them to the desktop then log out or restart and test.
    You can also try removing the caches folder in the library (you can trash it).
    However unless you are comfortable with using the root user or terminal I would advise backing up your data and migrating to a new user. Because without root or terminal doing anything but the preferences folder gets tedious.

  • TS4062 I purchased a new desktop, downloaded iTunes, & authorized the new computer in iTunes, but, I can't sync with the new computer because I get a message that says "sync will resume when Owner HP is on-line. That was the old computer.

    I purchased a new desktop computer, downloaded iTunes, authorized the computer thru iTunes, but, unable to sync with iPad3. I get a message stating "sync will resume when OWNER HP in on-line. That was the old computer, which no longer has iTunes on it. What can I do?

    You still have to make the new computer and the iTunes library the new syncing library. Did you transfer all of your content into iTunes yet or copy the iTunes library from the old PC to the new one?
    If you no longer have the old computer and did not copy the iTunes library to the new one, read this user tip.
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
    If you did tranfer everything over, you probably have to set up WiFi syncing again in iTunes in order for the iPad WiFi settings to see your new computer.

  • How do i keep my apps and data when syncing with a new laptop?

    My last laptop died so i have got a new one.
    How can i make sure all my apps,data and music on my Ipod Touch are not deleted when i get round to installing Itunes?
    I have done a few searches on this forum but are still unsure of exactly what to do.
    Thanks in advance,Rents.

    Unless you can get the iPod backup file (and restore the iPod from that file on your new computer) from the "dead" computer you will lose all the app data you can export via email.
    - Yu can trabsfer iTnes purchases from the iPod by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - You can transfer non-itunes purchased music to the new computer by using one of the third-party programs discussed in this previous discussion.
    Best iPod to PC
    - After you move the stuff to the new computer, either restore the iPod from the backup, or if no backup, restore to factory defaults,new iPod and sync.
