Want to put music on Dad's Iphone not sure how much stuff will be deleted

I wanted to put music on my dads Iphone for his birthday, but since it is my itunes and not his, it will "clear" his iphone....now this is his very impoortant work phone and so I do not want to delete all of his emails and calendar and contacts and all of the other stuff like that from his iphone...so exactly how much will itunes delete when it clears his ipone?????????

if the iPhone is setup to connect to your computer (which is not one he uses), everything will be cleared. in order to put content on his iPhone, you will have to connect it to the computer he has it already setup with. iPhone's can only be connected to 1 iTunes library, and each computer is a different 'library'.

  • I'm on a prepaid plan for the 4s, i want the hotspot option which isn't offered on the prepaid plan.  heard the connection is too slow on the 4s only worth it on the 5 or 5s. would you agree? not sure how much the hotspot would increase my monthly bill...

    To use the hotspot for any of those devices, I believe you have to switch to a postpaid account and plan. You can see the pricing for the available postpaid plans under the "Shop" area of the website.

    I need help on getting iTunes back on my iPhone

    Did you lose iTunes from your phone or from your computer? You posted in the iTunes for Windows forum, but you said "How do I get it back on my iPhone?"
    Assuming you are referring to your phone... the iTunes app cannot be deleted. Maybe it got restricted. Check under Settings > General > Restrictions.

  • Want to change the name of my network not sure how

    Hi:
    I set new airport express up Friday night but would like to modify the network name I gave it.
    Any suggestions as to how?
    Thanks

    Hi Britney2B
    Open up airport admin utility. Click the airport that appears in the list (sounds like there will only be one) You may have to eneter a password or not (you should have changed the default password to something more secure to stop others doing the exact same thing).
    You will see the network name in the settings. Simply change it to what you want, click update and let the airport do its stuff.
    If you have any security enabled which you should have, then you will have to enter your network password again, but this is nothing to worry about.
    Post back if any problems.
    Nb. If you don't want to do this, then you could restore your airport to factory settings and go through the entire setup again but the first method is far quicker.

    You will have to upgrade your operating system version and possibly your whole computer.  We cannot provide more information easily until we know more about your system.
    Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..."  Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).
    Apple does tell you about required equipment for the iPhone -- in 8 point medium gray type on a light gray box.   The Store associates kind of automatically assume everybody is running a new model computer and the one I met when we bought our iPhone had never seen a pre-2008 Mac and was somewhat puzzled why anybody would own such an antique.

  • I want to store my music files on a NAS (which has an iTunes server built in), but I'm not sure how this will affect my iPhone sync. Will I need a local copy of my music on a computer in order to continue to sync?

    Hi,
    I have an iPhone and I sync playlists to it from iTunes. (I have far in excess of 16GB of music/podcasts.)
    What I want to do is permanently share my music library with all devices in the house, so I'm planning on buying a NAS server that has a built-in iTunes server. (I don't want to just use my computer to share and leave it on 24/7 because that is a phenominal waste of power.) That way all networked computers can just load the library under the 'SHARED' option in the left pane. However, this had me wondering about how I will continue to sync my music to my iPhone? I wondered if I will need to maintain a duplicate of the library on one of my computers, and then have my iPhone sync with that. Otherwise I'm not sure how it'll work.
    Any help/comments/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Tom.

    Incidentally, my first thought was to map a network share from the NAS to my computer, so that my music files appear on the Z: drive, say on my computer. I could then set up iTunes to store music etc in that folder, and to copy all new items to that folder. However, if I do that, all that'll happen is that on my NAS, the library file will become out of date as I add music to the collection but not to the index.

  • I want to transfer music from an old iphone to a new itunes library , but not working

    I want to transfer music from an old iphone to a new itunes but its not working

    If you backup with iTunes and you restored from the backup and the data are gone, then there is no where to retrieve them from unless you have another backup that contains those data.
    Launch iTunes on the computer and go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices. You will see a window with all of your backups listed in it.
    If you see a recent backup that you are certain contains the data that you need, recover deleted data from iPhone backup.
    If your note is gone from iCloud.com there is only a few ways to possibly recover it.
    The first things I would check is a iCloud Backup, a iTunes Backup, or a 3rd party email that may have contained the note. To restore from a iCloud or iTunes backup follow this link. This article explains how to restore a device from either back up.
    Note if you have backed up since the note went missing, you will not have the note on the backup. Make sure you do not back up if trying to restore from a back up as this will back up the content without the note.
    To get to the "Set up assistant" on an iOS device, you must go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings. Once the phone restarts, you will be at the "Set up Assistant"

  • I want 2 put music from cds on another ipod without the songs being in my..

    I want 2 put music from cds on another ipod without the songs being in my library. Sorry it cut me off on the title. I want to import songs to put on my brother's ipod, but when I try to delete the song from my library it deletes it from his too. Help?

    If you want to delete content from your computer but keep it on the iPod (so that is not deleted next time you connect it to iTunes), you need to set that iPod to manage the iPod content manually.

    my iphone has the software 6.1.3  the latest and i want to put on it the older the 6.0 how do i do it

    That is not supported by Apple, once you move up in an iOS version you cannot downgrade.  The files for the lower iOS are no longer available.

    My account 2yr contract ends in Nov 29th 2014, however, i want an iphone.
    Should i buy it paying it in full 750 dollars or just pay 299+tax and make another 2 yr contract?
    The reason im asking is im leaving US by May 2015. How much EFT will cost by May 2015? Do I have to return the device as well? or i can keep the device?

    kiyoungtack1,
    You have asked a great question! It is your choice how you would like to go about purchasing the iPhone. Do you currently have an iPhone? If so you can trade in your current iPhone and put it towards the purchase of the new iPhone 6 or 6 Plus at full retail pricing. http://bit.ly/GGnDDC Have you checked to see if you are eligible for Early Edge? If you would like us to investigate further into which option would be the most cost efficient to you please private message me so we can review further.
