    How do you sync your apps from your iphone to a new PC?
    When syncing you receive a warning that you are about to remove all content from your iphone (device)!!! I don't/can't have this happen!! I have the music and calenders etc on iCloud but the Apps don't get stored there (as far as I'm aware).
    Should I de-register the old PC first? Will that then signal iTunes that this is OK to syc the apps with the new??
    Thanks.

    You really need to copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.
    The iphone is not a backup/storage device

    One of my ipod touches and ipad2 will not connect ti itunes. Unknown error keeps popping up 0xE800000A. I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. I have restored to original settings but it will not appear on my computer, but will other computer. What to do?

    Thanks for the help Ricky.
    I did put my iPod into DFU and iTunes recognized it in restore mode. After restore I am back where I was before - iTunes cannot connect because of an unknown error.
    I have installed Jailbreak to see if I can bypass itunes but haven't succeeded. I can't get my computer to recopgnize the iPod as a device.
    I'll take it to a Genius bar next time I am in the area of one. Until then I'll probably continue to try hacks to get it connected.

  • How do you sync your iphone to your itunes without losing your contacts

    Just go an iphone 4. How do you sync your phone to iTunes without it erasing all your contacts and messages etc. I did yesterday and it erased everything. I had to go back to AT&T to get all my contacts and photos back. I backed up my iphone but I don't know where to go from there...

  • How do you sync more than one itune at a time to your ipad?

    how do you sync more than one itune at a time to your ipad?

    Not sure what you mean?

    You can sync with one and only one computer/itunes library at a time.  If you sync to another it will erase the current content.

  • HT1386 How do you sync your itunes from the Iphone to the macbook pro?

    How do you sync your itunes from the iphone to the macbook pro? 
    Let's say, I have an Iphone 3GS and it was synced to my older pc (I know...) and it crashed and I can't retrieve my files on there.  I want everything that I have on my 3Gs: photos, videos, music, notes, voice recordings, etc...  Now, I recently upgraded to 4Gs.  I can sync almost everything via icloud but there are files like photos, videos, other music that I cannot sync or for some weird reason it won't work over the cloud.  So I want to move all of those information to my macbook pro (upgraded from pc... yes!).  How do I move everything in my iphone backed up to my itunes in my mac book so that I can sync it to my new 4Gs? 

    I have a 3GS IPhone and have not been able to find Cloud on it anywhere (I was instructed to go to Settings, General, etc). I have also been told I should download update from I Tunes and have not been successful doing that either. I know my I Pad has the Cloud and I am wanting to sync the calendar from the phone to the pad. Any suggestions?

    With the neew version of itunes, 11.02, how do you manage your apps/videos, etc - when on your computer - the appearance of 11.02 does not seem to have a layout that provides your phone screens - I am sure it does & I am not smart enough to figure out how to access the same. Thanks.

  • How do you download free apps on itunes without hidden charges

    how do you download  free apps in itunes library  without hidden charges being applyed

    Apps that are listed in the app store as free will be free to download (if you have a credit card on your iTunes account then you may get a temporary holding charge on it which should disappear within a few days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3702). If you don't want to be able to buy any 'extras' within any app after you've downloaded it then turn off In-App Purchases on your devices - on an iPad it's under Settings > General > Restrictions, and I assume it's similar for other devices.

  • TS2972 How do you move your music within itunes from your regular library to the homeshares library so that you can import it to your new computer?

    How do you move your music within itunes from your regular library to the homeshares library so that you can import it to your new computer?

    You do not have to move it as such. Here are the steps to setup HomeSharing
    1) Ctrl B to turn on the top menu
    2) File > Home Sharing > Create Home Share enter your apple id and password, click create
    3) repeat steps 1 and 2 for the other computer and create home share using the same apple id and password
    On your new machine if you have turned on the left hand sidebar the Shared Library should be about halfway down like this.
    Select the songs you want and click import at the bottom right. If you want all songs then I would select one song nad Ctrl A to select all
    Finally if you have a lot of songs to transfer Switch off the wifi on the old computer. Leave the wifi on the new one. Connect with an ehternet network cable. The copying speed is way faster.
    Click import and grab a coffee
