Unlimited Data Plan-Need to change my phone but don't want to lose!!

I am "grandfathered" into the unlimited data plan, we have four lines, I need to change my phone as my current one doesn't work. I tried switching to an old phone that I used 6 months ago with the unlimited data via online and it would not allow me to do so. How can I change to another phone without being told I have to buy a data plan? If we need to "buy a data plan" all 4 phones will be going else where....

Makes no difference about any tin foil hats, Verizon is using ANY MEANS to force unlimited data users off the unlimited and onto share or metered data. It is a fact. They tried twice with me and I pay full price for my devices.
1) Change your minutes, they want to take away your unlimited.
2) Buy a new device on subsidy, lose your unlimited data.
3) Buy a new device on the Edge program, lose unlimited data.
4) Swap a device on your account, they want to take unlimited away.
5) Add a prepay tablet to your account, they tell you that you lose Unlimited data.
However the instructions are you are prepaying for the tablet use so its billed to your credit or debit card yet not really part of your cell phone plan but they want you to lose unlimited.
In short if you go online or call on the phone or even chat, for any reason in some cases Verizon is removing your unlimited data. And you have to be careful since many here are stating the same as I listed.
They are a business, if they decided not to have unlimited data trust me it will be gone. So leave a little room in that tin foil so the broadcast will get through.
Just for a giggle, many many years ago I bought an unlimited Mobil Gasoline coffee cup. You paid for it once and each time you came to a Mobil station you get a free coffee. I still have the cups (they came in two sizes) yet just try and get that free coffee. The company dropped the promotion. And now you get arrested for theft.
Nothing lasts forever.
Good Luck

Need to uninstall Dreamweaver cs3, but don't want to lose my files

Need to uninstall and reinstall Dreamweaver cs3. How do I do that without losing my files? I only have one website and a couple of dozen files related to it.Dreamweaver support forum

Your files are in a separate folder on your computer, not in the DW folder, so they should be safe.
If your site is live, your files are also on the server, and can be downloaded later if necessary.
DW simply allows you to edit those files by means of your site definition which tells DW where to find those files. Before uninstalling DW, export your site definition (an STE file) to a safe place on your computer for later import into your next DW installation.
Use the cleaner tool before installing your new DW.

We want to purchase a new iPhone but don't want to lose the text messages on that phone. Can they be uploaded and then restored onto the new phone

we plan on buying an iphone 5 but don't want to lose the text messges we have on our iPhone 4s. is there a way to upload the texts and then download them onto the new phone

Text messages are included in your iPhone backup. Before switching over to the new phone, back up the old one, then restore this backup to your new phone. That will transfer text messages, along with other data and settings, as well as your apps and other purchased media. More details here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109.

Downloaded apps using my iphone, now I want to sync my phone on my computer, but don't want to lose the apps that I've downloaded onmy phone Help!

Downloaded apps using my iphone, now I want to sync my phone on my computer, but don't want to lose the apps that I've downloaded on my phone Help!

Connect the phone to your computer, but do not sync. Make sure iTunes is authorized to the same account that you bought the apps with. Then select "Transfer Purchases" from the iTunes File menu. Once this finishes the apps will be on your computer, so you can sync safely.

I need to update my software but i dont want to lose all of my content. This is a new computer i am updating from and it doesnt have any of my content on it.

I went to the apple store and they told me that my version of Itunes on my Ipod touch is like 20 versions behind. My mom just bought a mac and I want to update my software but I dont want to lose all of my music,movies,shows, and pictures. I no longer have the computer that I used to put all of the content on my ipod so I am scared that if I do the update I will forever lose my content. Please tell me if I can update my software without it deleting my ipod. Thank you so much

- If you have a 1G ipod you can't update past 3.1.3. To identify yourd see:
Identifying iPod models
- Be aware that if you can/do update the iOS to the latest (4.2.1 for a 2G and 4.3.4 for a 3G) you may not be able to sync to the old computer since that computer will need the latest iTunes to see/sync with the update iPod. Yo need an Max with at least OSX 10.5.8.
You can transfer iTunes purchases from the iPod to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
You can use on of the third-party programs dicussed here to transfer other stuff:
new PC: Apple Support Communities
Unless you can move/copy the iPod backup file to the new computer you will loose all app data and restore from that backup. That file is located:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

My iTunes got deleted off a (no longer working) computer. Is there a way I can transfer all content from my iPhone onto iTunes on a new computer? I want to update my phone, but do not want to lose any music off it when syncing it.

My iTunes got deleted off a (no longer working) computer. I have lost all music & data that was on this original itunes. Is there a way I can transfer all content from my iPhone (music & photos) onto iTunes on a new computer? I want to update my iphone (3GS), but do not want to lose any music off it when syncing it. Help please!!

By design, the iphone will sync itunes content with one computer at a time. Any attempt to sync such content with a second computer will result in ALL itunes content being first erased from your phone & then replaced with the content from the second computer. This is a design feature and cannot be overridden. Because you are using a new computer, your phone will see this computer as a "new" computer. The itunes content sync is one way: computer to phone. If you have photos that were synced to your phone or music ripped on your own that were not backed up, you will first have to extract them from your phone using third party software, before you do anything else, as Apple makes no provision to do so:
http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/index.php
Once you've done that, do the following in the order specified:
1. Disable auto sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected under iTunes>Preferences(under the edit menu if using Windows)>Devices in itunes.
2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in the supported applications(Address Book & iCal or Outlook, Windows Address Book) on your computer. These entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
3. Connect your phone, iTunes running, DO NOT SYNC at this point.
4. Store>Authorize this computer.
5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on your phone will be in your itunes library).
6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
7. Right click again and select backup.
8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore your itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding your contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
You should be good to go.

Resetting my iPad but don't want to lose data

I need to return my work iPad to the company and therefore will be resetting it. How can I ensure I don't lose the data, how can I save it so that I can put this on a new iPad if I decide to get a personal one.
I also have an iPhone and don't want to lose anything from that when I reset my iPad, are they linked? Is there anyway to move this data across to my iPhone?
The data I'm worried about losing is the contacts, iMessages and bookmarks/favourites within Safari.

If, in iCloud settings on the iPad, you have Safari checked, your history and favourites will be synchronsied via iCloud and you'll be able to get them back on a new device synced to the same account. Same for contacts, calendar items and so on.
The page below outlines everyting backed up via iCloud.
https://support.apple.com/kb/PH12519?locale=en_US
So between iCloiud sync and backup, you should be OK

Need to UPDATE but don't want to lose rankings, last played, playlists, etc

I need to download the new version of iTunes for some reason, in order to buy an ipod and even to download certain songs in the itunes store. This is very annoying.
In the past, when I've updated my itunes to a new version, I've lost the song rankings, playlists, last played info, etc for over 5,000 songs/videos. It was EXTREMELY annoying. I don't want to lose this info again when/if I update my itunes.
I now have over 10,000 songs on an external hard drive, along with the itunes folder/etc. I am using Windows XP. Can anyone here, anyone at all, tell me how I can update to the new version of iTunes without losing this info?
I will not update if I can't be guaranteed that this will work. I do NOT want to lose all this info again.
Thank you! Kevin

I have an ipod 30gb then i bought a shuffle just because i wanted one. I had to also update my itunes software for that and it kept everything in there perfect. Ive had to update my software many many times actually and nothing ever was deleted.. The only time something was actually deleted was when i didnt update it when it told me to. Id say youd be safe to update it. If you are really worried about it you can back up your music first!!

HT5661 i have an iphone 3 i am selling .. if i go to erase all content and settings .. will the apps still be on the phone .. i've never been able to add apps to this phone and don't want to lose them

how do i prepare my iphone 3 to sell ..
i've never been able to download new apps so i don't want to lose the apps that are on there
am i to reset all settings? or erase all content and settings? or reset network settings?

Only the apps that are part of iOS will remain on the phone.
If you're going to sell it, use "Erase All Content and Settings".
If you're selling it, what difference does it make to you if the apps get erased? You don't have the legal right to transfer any apps you bought to anyone else. Not to mention the fact that you stated you have never been able to download new apps...
Why don't you just re-post the question in your native language. There are so many contradictions in your post that i don't believe you're conveying the questions you think you are.

I can't connect to the itunes store and have some problems with other websites. Some websites load OK. I had the same problem on my iPad and changed the DNS, but don't want to do this on my iMac, anyway, surely I should have my router's DNS?

I can't connect to the iTunes store from my iMac and have problems loading a number of other websites, however some websites load perfectly well. I have had the iTunes store issue on my iPad and resolved it by changing the DNS but surely I should use the DNS for my router. I don't really want to change it for the iMac as I access secure sites with it to internet shop.
Any ideas, I was going to try loading Chrome but can't get it without going through the iTunes store. Anyway, that is treating the symprom not the cause.

Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security, (including anti-phishing and redirects) (Full information about Open DNS is here: http://www.opendns.com/home/nobloat ) and further independent information can be read here:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57338784-263/free-dnscrypt-tool-enhances-ma c-web-security/?tag=mncol;txt
and here:
http://www.macworld.com/article/1146064/troubleshootdns.html?t=234
Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:

Presumably you didn;t use it very often.
June 2011:
iWeb publishing, MobileMe Gallery, and iDisk will all disappear as the company sunsets its current online service in favor of iCloud.
Other MobileMe services—including syncing of Mac Dashboard widgets, keychains, Dock items, and System Preferences—will not be part of iCloud, Apple says. Those syncing services will stop working as soon you migrate from MobileMe to iCloud. In addition, Apple says that while MobileMe members can no longer upgrade to a Family Pack or buy additional MobileMe storage, Family Pack members will be able to transition their accounts to iCloud individually, as long as it’s done before June 30, 2012.

August 2012:
As of today, visitors to MobileMe.com are no longer given the option to convert their accounts to iCloud or to retrieve old photos and files, with Apple now simply pointing users to iCloud.

Personal Suface Pro needing to access a Domain but don't want to connect to it

Hi
I have a personal Surface Pro I use for work and i would like to access websites and servers within work network. Overtime it asks me for a domain/username and password to access the information I'm after. The issue is sometimes it works but most of
he time it doesn't. I don't want to connect it to the Domain as its my device and i want to keep control of it.
Can anyone recommend the best way to do this or am i stuck with putting it on the domain.
thanks
Brenden

It depends, if internet is controller by proxy servers, you might need to authenticate using domain ID.
I would suggest you to check with the Infra Admin in office.

Want to reinstall OS Tiger but don't want to lose all my settings, data

Please Help
My computer has been having kernel panics - I was told reinstalling the OS may fix it.
Is there a way to reinstall OS X without having to completely wipe the drive and reinstall everything (applications, pop email accounts in mail, etc.)? I'm also working on a Final Cut Project and don't want that harmed.
Can I refresh the OS without altering or erasing data?

I would make sure to have a complete backup of all your important data. This is always a necessity, but is more of one now since your are experiencing trouble.
And take a look at the following regarding kernel panics:
