  • How to download pictures and music from Ipad (no Itunes)?

    Hi.. a week ago someone broke into my home and they stoled stuff (inlcuding my macbook). The only photos I still have are in my Ipad.
    How can I download these photos to another mac (not the ones taken with the camera, but the ones synced with my stolen macbook)?
    Unfortunately, the available mac that my mom lended to me is from 2007 and the OS is less than 10.5, which is requirement for the latest Itunes (needed for my Ipad2).
    So as you can see I am in trouble. Is there a way to download the pictures (and/or music) without using Itunes?
    please Help.!

    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • How do I home share music from ipad to mac

    HI all. I have my entire music library on my ipad2, and want to home share it to my new mac. But the mac does not seem to be able to see the music from the ipad? Is this even possible, or can it only go the other way around (mac to ipad). I know I have home sharing set up right because the mac shared videos to my ioad. What I want is to be able to share everything on my ipad, and access it on my ipad. Can anyone help?

    You can only use home sharing to stream content from a computer to another computer or device (or to copy content between computers), it doesn't work from an iOS device.

  • How do I download the music from iTunes onto an old iPhone 3gs? I have reset the iPhone to factory settings and when I plug it in it wants to use the device name for my current iPhone 5 and I don't want to change anything on my old iPhone.

    How do I download the music from iTunes onto an old iPhone 3gs without affecting my iPhone 5? I have reset the iPhone to factory settings and when I plug it in it wants to use the device name for my current iPhone 5 and I don't want to change anything on my current iPhone. iTunes won't let me change the device name for the 3gs. I just want to use the old iPhone like an touch.

    Hi littlemansa,
    If I am understanding you correctly, it sounds like you are returning to an old iPhone that has been erased and you would like to set it up as a new device without restoring from a backup which would affect the name of your iPhone, as well as the contents therein. I have an article for you that can help you set up your iPhone as a new device, and that information can be found below:
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT4137
    Basically, it seems like you may be stuck on a screen that is asking if you would like to restore your device from the backup that is filed under the name of your new iPhone, or if you would like to set up the device as a new device. I would suggest that you set it up as a new device to achieve your desired results. 
    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • How can i get my music from iphone onto a new pc

    how can i get my music from iphone onto a new pc . i have A NEW IPAD I WANT TO TRANSFER THE MUSIC ONTO

    When connected to your computer's iTunes you can use File > Transfer Purchases to copy over any music (and other content) that you've bought from Apple. For music that you've copied from your own CDs or bought from other download sites then is it not already on your computer and/or on a backup that you can copy onto your computer ? If not then you will need to find a third-party program to copy them off the phone.
    And there is no need to SHOUT.

    connect the Macs with a firewire cable. start the G5 in Target Disk Mode. copy the entire iTunes folder from the G5 to the music folder on the new machine (overwriting the iTunes folder in place there).
    fire up iTunes.
    make sure you point iTunes to the correct media folder location via preferences > advanced
    enjoy !

    You should copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, as you would normally do when you get a new computer. Try it to see how to transfer music from iPad to computer.

  • How to transfer images and music from PC (Windows 7) to iPhone?

    Hello:
    Could someone please inform me how can I transfer images and music from a PC (Windows 7) to my iPhone (3GS)?

    Hi, RichardParker,
    I have also meet problems to transfer music from PC to iPhone, and I had solved it now. You can do the following steps,
    1. Copy music to your phone memory
    2. Exported contacts to SD Card (on Android phone) in VCard format
    3. Transfered VCard file from SD Card to PC
    4. Created a Google Account
    5. Opened the Google Account from a browser (on PC), go to Contacts, and then uploaded VCard contacts to the Google account
    6. Configured the iPhone (using a separate Windows user account - so as to allow for importing pictures & videos through iTunes)
    7. Created a "CardDAV" account on the iPhone and synchronised all Contacts
    If you have any question ,you can ask me about iPhone Transfer. And I hope the steps above works.
