How do you set up iTunes 10.5 on a new computer?, How do you set up iTunes 10.5 on a new computer?

I have a new computer with Windows 7, Outlook and I use iTunes with an Apple iPhone 4 and a iPad. My devices have iOS5. How do you set up iTunes 10.5 on a new computer and sync these devices. I have already downloaded iTunes 10.5 on my computer. Also, I use MobileMe. Thanks for your help. LCP

Thank you for your response. I have all of my files, etc. and am sitting here on the old computer. I just wasn't sure if I should simply save the iTunes program I am using or insall a new version.
After I get iTunes onto my new computer do I authorize the new computer before I plug in my IPod or after?
I'm sorry I didn't point out that I had all of my files available. For some reason, working with iTunes and my iPod make me nervous.
Thanks again.

My 2 children share an itunes account. now that they are older and receive lots of itunes gift cards, it's very difficult for them to each redeem cards fairly! how do i set up separate accts

can anyone tell me how to go about setting up a separate account for one child without messing up the original account? or can anyone give suggestions about redeeming gift cards so each child does not have to keep track of the others purchases. its' causing a lot of stress around here and potential inequity. my daughter wants her own acct. i assume i would set that up under a separate email and will she lose everything?

You will indeed need another email address, but you just then set up the account as you did your current one. You can use your daughter's gift card to set up the account. I'd suggest you give each child his/her own user account in Windows, if you haven't already. That will give them each their own iTunes library and keep each child's purchases completely separate.
As to the existing content, once you've set up the user account for your daughter, just copy the content you want your daughter to have from your current iTunes library to a shared location (either on the computer or on removable storage such as a USB flash drive or an external hard drive), log into your daughter's user account, launch iTunes, and drag the content into the iTunes window. Then just authorize that copy of iTunes to that iTunes Store account (Store menu -> Authorize) and she'll be able to continue to play and sync that content. Log her into her own iTunes Store account for future purchases.
Regards.

Set up new iPhone 5 with iCloud restore, then iTunes created new library with only content already on phone. How do I find and sync everything in original library?

My daughter got a new iPhone 5 and we set it up using the option to restore her iPhone 4 backup from iCloud. This worked great and everything on the old phone showed up on the new phone. Because we were traveling, we weren't able to sync the iPhone 5 with iTunes at that time.
She purchased new apps and music on the iPhone 5. When we returned home she synced with iTunes, and it seems to have created a new library, with only the content currently on the phone. I don't know if it prompted her to do this on the first sync or not - she doesn't remember.
So in iTunes, the library now only shows the music on the phone. A sync isn't doing much now because when choosing the phone in iTunes and selecting each content type across the top (Apps, Music, Movies, TV Shows) the box is unchecked to sync that content. When I check the box to "Sync Music", iTunes gives a warning:
Are you sure you want to sync music? all existing songs and playlists on the iPhone Becca's iPhone will be replaced with songs and playlists from your iTunes library.
Same goes for apps, except that warning also mentions that the apps and their data will be erased and replaced.
At some point she was also getting a message that this iPhone was associated with another library, but I'm not sure how she had triggered that. She says she canceled out of that. I can see all of the music
How do we get iTunes to see the "old" library of songs, videos and apps without losing the ones she's purchased already on the iPhone? The music files themselves are still on the computer, and include music both purchased from iTunes as well as music ripped from CDs. Thanks for any advice!

Do you mean iTunes library?
iTunes account is what you use to make iTunes purcahses.
iTunes library is what is on your computer.
It says my phone can only be set up woth one itunes account. How do I remove the previous account?
No, it tells you it can only be sync'd with one iTunes library.
Simplest way is to copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder (thisis the iTunes library) from old computer to new computer.

Do you know how I can fix taht for his phone? Any settings I can turn off that will prevent all of my apps/contacts, etc from auto populating his phone?

Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
Its wrong to assume that everyone has a backup copy.

How can you turn off the braille setting on an iPhone 4s, once on it won't let you slide the phone into use mode to change the settings or do anything?

An alternate method is Accessibility Settings when connected to iTunes. You should be able to turn it off there. I would also check out some of the answers listed to the right of this post and see if they can help.

.dmg.part is not a complete file.. It usually indicates that the entire file has not been downloaded yet. Are you sure you downloaded the entire file? (i recommend updating itunes through  > Software Update

My iPod screen broke and I bought a new one, how do I get iTunes to un-recognize the old one (i heard you can only have 5 devices).

I have new iPod Nano. I want to set it up w/ the same name as my old one. I heard you can only hve 5 devices, so since I'll never use the original one again, how do I get iTunes to know that it is no longer?

You do not need to do anyhting.
You can sync as many devices as you like.

one fine day yesterday, my i phone just hangup lost all contact detail. The screen only show a picture depicting cable connection to iTune. I have tried to restore iphone to factory setting but not working . May i know how to proceed to recover lost contacts.

I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

Didn't the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section of that article work for you? If you don't already have a valid rescue email address, only Apple itself can reset the questions.

Using 2 ipods on 1 computer - How do you keep the itunes seperate?

Want to find out how 2 different users can keep their own itunes library on the same computer without having to have each other's music on each ipod.

There are actually three main ways to do what you want. There is the manual update that superman suggests, but that requires you to give up all the convience and features of the automatic updates. Here are two other ways:
For each iPod, go to the prefs and set it to Update only selected playlists. Then you will be given a list of all playlists in iTunes, and you can pick which ones will update to the iPod. This can include smart playlists, so you have a control over what goes on each iPod. If you later make new playlists, just go to the prefs and check them to include them on that iPod. Then, do the same with the other iPod. You can include some of the playlists on both iPods, and have some that are on one iPod and not the other. Your choice.
The third choice is good when the two users have virtually no music in common. What you do is make a separate login account for each user, and have them run iTunes from that account. Any songs that one user puts in their library will never show up in the other iTunes. It's like they were running on two separate computers. Then let each user sync their iPod to their iTunes library, and the two iPods will not even know about each other. Each will have their own library, thier own playlists, and their own music on thier iPod.
