  • TS3274 On my iPhone I can update the 3G signal strength by dialing *228 with Verison. Is there anyway I can update signal strength with my ipad.

    it does not really update your signal strenght, It disconnects you from network and reconnects you back. Termin is reprovisioning. Once your phone is reconnected it autmatically searches for the best cell on the closest tower. You can do the same by simply turning off your wifi radio (airplane mode off). As far as I know there is nothing on your ipad that will make them(verizon) to reprovision your account on their side.

    Okay ... you might be able to get back some of your past purchases if your country's iTunes Store supports redownloading past purchases. See the following document for instructions:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    ... but if you didn't maintain a back-up, then other content (songs that you'd ripped yourself from CDs and so forth) is gone, and you'd have to reimport it.

  • I have an iPad that I want to update to IOS 5.1. I have several apps that each were installed using a different iTunes ID. How can I update the IOS without losing the apps?

    To update your phone requires using the latest version of iTunes, on your computer, as well as Internet access. The update to iOS 5.0 or higher is an erase/restore deal, so you not only have to make sure all of the content, currently on your phone, is on your computer and accessible, you need to update iTunes first, have Internet access, then update your phone. There is no way around this fact. You could go to an Apple store or use another computer, but you run the risk of losing all of your data it you do that.

  • Is there anyway you can save documents on the ipad to the desktop?

    Is there anyway you can save documents from your mail on the ipad to its desktop or folders?

    Hello Peyto123,
    It is possible however to upload document to and from your ipad/iphone via a tool called "phone drive". (https://itunes.apple.com/nl/app/id431033044?mt=8)
    When you have this tool installed, and the transfer option enabled in the app, you can up- and download via an internet browser session from you computer/mac to the ipad/iphone. Very usefull tool, i use it for all kind of documents and photos. 
    Regards,
    Manus

  • How can I temporarily remove games from my iPhone without losing the app data included?

    My iPhone 5 is running low on space so I plan on cleaning it out soon. I have a lot of games on my iPhone with app data included that I don't play as often. I was planning on removing these temporarily because some day I might want to play them again but I'm afraid I won't have my progress anymore. Ex: My levels conquered on Cut The Rope or my worlds on Minecraft PE.
    So is there a solution out there for me to be able to temporarily remove my games without losing their app data? All feedback is greatly appreciated and I how there is a way to do this!

    The only way to recover the data for a deleted app would be to restore from a backup made before you deleted the app.  Apps and their data are integral to eachother, so deleting one deletes the other.
    If you have a backup, you could restore from that to restore an App's data, but a restore is also an all or nothing option - the restore will restore everything to the state of the backup, not single or selective items.
    Other than that, there is no way to acheive what you wish - if you delete the app you delete its data.

  • A friend let me use her old ipad that was still synced to her account. I want to sync it to my account without losing the app progress, notes, and pictures. How do I do this and keep everything on the ipad?

    I want to sync an ipad to my iTunes account that used to be synced to another account without losing the data (i.e.- pictures, notes, app progress). Is this possible or will I lose everything once I sync it to my account?

    You can't. iDevices are one user devices.

  • Is it possible to transfer one single App from my iTunes onto my iPad, without losing the Apps that are already installed on my iPad?

    I originally had the app (FilmOn.TV) on my iPhone, so it is backed up in my iTunes on my PC. It's no longer available in the App Store and I would really like to have it on my iPad. When I read up on this, it seems to say that if I sync any apps from my iTunes onto my iPad, that any Apps currently on the iPad will be deleted.
    Can anyone tell me, please, is it possible to bring one single App across onto my iPad, without losing all of my existing ones.
    Thank you in advance.
    Brian.

    Do you think you could email me the Filmon .ipa file? I lost mine the other day, and it would be very handy.

    I Bought an iPhone 5 from a friend and want to keep his music. If i sync it to my Mac i will lose it. Any way i can keep the music?

    Your friend does get to keep.  .Purchases are locked forever to the Apple id used to purchase them
    They just download again using the same Apple id

  • HT1366 I have a macbook from 2008.  Currently I have OS X 10.5.8 is there anyway I can upgrade my OS X system?

    I want to upgrade my computer and I am having difficulty finding a new OS X system that I can actually upgrade to.  Someone please help

    The next step is to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD; it'a a prerequisite for 10.6.8, 10.7.5, and 10.8.4.
    If you want to go beyond 10.6.8, open the Mac App Store and try purchasing Mountain Lion 10.8. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least 2GB of RAM, and if it does, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.

  • Why can't I use the app that I bought with my Apple ID on my ipad & iphone? why should I have to buy the same app twice???

    Please answer my questions.
    Thanks

    of course I am logged in with the same id of me on both my devices. and when I go to app store, and then purchased apps, I only am able to see the other applications but not the one that I bought some hours ago. This happening now for the second time with me. the first time I bought one app using my iphone and then couldn't find it through ipad, and now it is the same reversely.
    Normally it shouldn'tbe like this! but i dont know what is going wrong.

  • Can I move an IPad to a new iTunes account without losing the apps?

    I currently have two devices on my itunes account, and would like to move one the devices to a new itunes account (not mine). Is it possible to do this without losing all of the apps that have been acquired on that device?

    You can only have one library per user account on a PC/Mac.
    So, if you need to create a new library, then create a new user, and transfer the content you want over to that new user. Then sync.
    Can you clarify a little more what you're needing?

  • I just purchased a MacBook Pro from my college, it shipped with Lion; is there anyway I can update the software to Moutain Lion without having to pay $20 since it is brand new?

    It is "last years model" and it came shipped with Mac OS X 10.7.5. I was just wondering if I could update for free since it is brand new mac?

    Supposedly if you purchase 10.8 and check out, if the machine is one on the list the account is not charged.
    I can't confirm this, but that's what one person reported back as what occured.
