I had to get a new computer and when I plug in my iPhones it does not have all the apps I bought. I get the error: are you sure you want to sync apps? All existing apps and their data on the iPhone will be replaced with apps from this iTunes library.

How do I get an old library onto a new computer. When I plug in phone all my apps do not show up.

You need to copy the iTunes liubrary from your Old computer, or its Backup, to your New computer...
See Here for one way
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
Or...
From your Old Computer... Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..
Backup iTunes to an External Drive

An Added Bonus is that you will then have a Backup of iTunes...

I hope you mean the iPhone 4S.
If you have an Apple TV or an AirPort Express, Airplay will automatically available to you.

My iphone 3gs does not have a wifi button how can i get one

as my tittle states i dont have a wifi button can i get one ?

First things first: you bought this iPhone second-hand from someone you know. That person must have used his iTunes account to activate the phone. Have you tried connecting your iPhone to your computer (Mac or PC, doesn't matter) via USB and have it recognized by iTunes on your computer? If not, you'll have to activate the iPhone first. iTunes will do that for you, provided the former user has notified Apple he has sold his iPhone to you. Then, there's the question of your mobile phone provider: iPhones are network-locked. You can't buy an iPhone from someone who's, say, an Orange customer, then use it on another network than Orange's (in the US, of course, that point is moot). Only way to unlock your phone is to jailbreak it, but it's risky, and frankly, I don't think you'll find a lot of info on this forum on the subject... First off, check on which operator network you friend was.

I synced my new iPad with my new macbook and when I tried to then sync my iPhone as well it says that all apps will be replaced with apps in my library. How do I sync without losing all of my existing iPhone apps?

My guess is that you previously synced the iPhone with a different computer in the past. You will probably want to set up Home Sharing.

My iPhone 3 does not have the x on apps for me to delete , so how can I delete my apps

My iPhone 3 does not have a x at the corner of my apps when I press and hold, so how can I delete apps?

Hey Sharifa04,
It sounds like you may have Restrictions enabled, specifically the restriction of deleting applications. You can disable this behavior in Settings > General > Restrictions > "Deleting Apps" (Note: You'll need to enter your restrictions passcode to disable restrictions). For more information, see the following article:
iOS: Understanding Restrictions (Parental Controls)
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4213
Also, keep in mind that you will not be able to delete the pre-installed applications on the iPhone, as they are required by the software.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Iphone 4 does not have app store on it, can it be downloaded

my son's iphone 4 does not have the app store icon, can it be added?

Check his other apps folder or home screen.
Go to settings - restrictions and make sure it's not restricted.
If the above doesn't work, then go to settings - general - reset - reset home screen layout.

I'm trying to sync my iPhone 5 with music from my iTunes library!

I'm trying to sync my iPhone 5 with music from my iTunes library and when i click "sync selected playlists" it tells me i have 501 songs when i know those playlists only contain 120 max! When i untick the playlists the number of songs doesn't change. Nor does it change when i re click the playlists i want! Surely if i do not tick any playlists i'm choosing not to sync any songs? My 16GB phone keeps telling me my interal storage is full. I seem to constantly be backing up and then deleting photos to make room. I have 5.02 GB take up by "other" can anyone tell me what this is? TIA

Hi Rennagade,
If you are repeatedly prompted to authorize your computer in iTunes, even after you have already done so, you may want to try the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article:

My iTunes library has been replaced with my husband's iTunes library on our iMac. How do I get my iTunes library from my iPhone back onto my iTunes library on the iMac?

My iTunes library has been replaced with my husband's iTunes library on our iMac. How do I get my iTunes library from my iPhone back onto my iTunes library on the iMac? Help!!!

Well, this is a problem, because the only material you can transfer from your iPhone (using only Apple software) is material you purchased in the iTunes Store.
To do that, plug your iPhone into iTunes, then choose File > Devices > Transfer Purchases from iTunes' menu.
Generally speaking, you should restore your iTunes library from your computer's backup.

Verizon will only unlock your phone for international use.
Just to avoid any possible confusion, a Verizon-model iPhone 4 is a CDMA-only iPhone and can't be unlocked at all. The only way to use that model with another carrier is if Verizon has international CDMA carrier partners for international roaming, available only a very few countries.
Only the Verizon-model iPhone 4S or later is or can be unlocked for true international use.

I found an old iPod classic of mine. It's not synced to my new MacBook Pro. How can I get the music and photos off of it and on to my new computer? When I plug it in to my new computer it wants to erase what is on it and transfer from my new computer.

I found an old iPod classic of mine that is synced to a computer that is long gone. I want to get the music and photos from this old iPod onto my new computer. Every time I hook the iPod up to my new computer it wants to delete what is on the iPod and replace with the contents of the iTunes that is currently on the new computer. I don't want to do that. I want to keep what is on the old iPod and transfer it to iTunes. Any help? Thanks!

See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

TS1277 My computer has had new windows installed and now when I plug in my phone is does not recognize the device

My Computer has just had a new windows package installed and now my "Device is not recognized" when I plug it in?

Microsoft Office is a program you would need to reinstall again.
As for data backup if you baid 200.00 for a cruddy job for just picture backups and a reinstallation of Windows, thats pretty bad.
I would ask the technician where your data is. basically you want to ask if he backed up your User directory

My new iphone 5c does not have an "alarm" on the clock function. My iphone 4 does and it works perfectly. What's that all about?

I recently purchased a new iphone 5c unlocked in the States and have moved to Doha, Qatar. When I went to set the alarm in the clock function a message came up saying I didn't have an alarm on the clock. This is strange as my iphone 4 does and it works fine. How can I add this feature to my clock?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

Msg: all files will be erased and replaced with songs on this iTunes.

I first set up my iPod to work on my iTunes library. Because I wanted some music from my sons iTunes, I then connected my iPod to his iTunes, created some playlists and manually moved a lot of his music into those playlists. The next time I connected iPod to my iTunes, I got the msg about all music on iPod will be erased and replaced if sync'd with my iTunes. So I chose yes and all music was deleted from iPod and all my library was sync'd back into it. However, I'm still getting the message each time I want to update on my iTunes. Could it be because I put a lot of his music into playlists which are still on my iTunes? If so, how can I remedy this?

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
It sounds like you have failed to do this, which is not good at all.
You will have to transfer your itunes purchases from your iphone. Authorize your computer for your itunes account
About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization
Open itunes, plug in iphone, do NOT sync, click File>Transfer Purchases
When you do sync you will lose your pics ( photo library - synced from your old computer), your itunes content ( music, apps, videos,etc) , your contacts and your calendars. So do NOT sync yet. This is why a backup copy is so important.
Enter one unique contact and calendar entry on your computer.
When you first sync, you should get the option to merger the data. Choose it.
If you want your pics, then you will need to e-mail them to yourself before you sync. They will not be of the original quality as they are reduced when synced to iphone.
When all is as goos as it can be, then backup your computer, and always maintain the backup.
