Will i be able to listen to music, watch videos and take pictures and sync with itunes without a sim in my locked iphone 5?

You will need a SIM to activate it. There is no way around that. The SIM does not have to be active, but it must be from the correct carrier if the phone is carrier locked. Once activated, it can be removed and used like an iPod touch, but if you ever have to restore or update iOS, you will need the SIM to re-activate it.

Hi, Im having trouble with my Iphones sounds, it wont let me listen to music, watch videos, notify me if i get a text, basically everything that makes a sound is no longer working. The volume level you get when you play music isnt there, HELP?!

Hi, basically i have no sound at all on my Iphone, it doent notify me when i get a text, when someone rings, when i play music or watch videos, the volume slider that is usually present while watching videos or listening to music is no longer there at all, ive turned my phone on and off a couple of times now ive put headphones in and out to see if i had a sticky jack but still no luck Someone help??

And to clarify, these are all iTunes movie and music downloads, so there should not be a compatability issue. And no, the iPod did not come damaged from Apple, it was a hand-me-down from a friend who busted the internal speaker. But it's never done anything like this before. It just had crappy sound. And yes, the timing of the movies and music having issues is the same as the speaker dying. And no, this has NOTHING To do with music videos. I don't have any on any of our devices.

I need to transfer my music form my IPod Touch which is synced with ITunes to my IPhone 5 which is synced on the same computer

I had limited hard drive space on my old PC so I synced it to my IPod Touch. I have since bought a new computer and an IPhone 5. I was able to transfer the music back from the IPod Touch to the ITunes library on the new computer where the IPhone 5 is also synced, but I cannot transfer the music. When I open the IPhone in ITunes and ask it to syn the music, ITunes wants to delete all my contacts and notes. Is there a way to import my IPhone 5 contents into the IPod ITunes library and then syn my IPhone with that library which would also have my music?

Morning @mb,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at this article:
iTunes: Transferring media from your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1209
Music imported from a CD or another source
iTunes cannot transfer this media back to a computer. Make sure to back up your iTunes Library, or you can use iTunes Match2.
Best of luck,

I lost all the music on my ipod nano trying to sync with itunes. Can I retrieve the songs?

I tried to sync my iPod music library into my newly downloaded iTunes last. Before I knew it, thje music was gone! It not on iTunes or the iPod(Nano 4th) Is there any way to retrieve the music? Thanks in advance for your time.

Your question makes little sense. Please explain

I'm going to quit iTunes match, all my music is online (non on my computer). When I come back to iTunes Match: will I be able to acces my music?

I'm going to quit iTunes match for other streaming services, all my music is in the cloud (non on my computer). When I come back to iTunes Match: will I be able to acces my music?
I'm planning to not renew my iTunes match ending soon.But when I change my mind in, say, a year, will all my music be available to me. I really don't feel like donwloading and backig up :-)
Thank you!

I don't know if Apple keeps a record of what music you had in the cloud. I am assuming that after the subscription lapses, after some amount of time the music in the cloud is deleted. So, after a year, if you sign up again you'll need to go through the process again.
iTunes Match is not a backup, and if you don't pay the subscription fee Apple is under no obligation to keep the data around.

Not able to play games, music, or videos. Sometimes it works sometimes it dont.

Sometimes I am able to play games listen to music watch videos but then other times I am not able to. I have adobe flash installed all my plugins seem to be up to date. What could be causing this and how do I fix this problem?

My iPhone4 will not sync with iTunes,

my iPhone4 will not sync with iTunes, but Windows Explorer (Windows7) recognizes the iPhone is connected and will download photos from iPhone.
When I look at the Settings-General-iTunes Wifi Sync, it says "Sync will resume when "PC" is available."
More details:
I have three iPhone4 phones. 1 of them will Sync with iTunes, but the other 2 have this problem where they will not Sync. All 3 phones recently were able to Sync, like 10 or 14 days ago. I am Sync ing them all to the same PC and iTunes account. No idea what has changed to cause 2 of the iPhones to be unable to Sync. they both have the "Sync will resume when "PC" is available" message under the Wifi Sync menu.

You say your phone will not sync but then you say, "when it does sync."
Does it sync or not? Did you remember to select music to sync onto your phone before clicking on Apply or Sync?
You do have to have iTunes on your computer in order to sync your phone. And your music must be in iTunes.

Any apps restored to new iPod due to service will not sync with iTunes.

I had to have a retail location replace my iPod and they restored my music and apps from the old one to the new one. Since then, when I plug my device into my computer the 'Apps' tab in iTunes will not allow me to manipulate the screens of my iPod. The image remains dim and I cannot switch to different screens or touch the apps. Any apps purchased since the restore are syncing with iTunes without a problem. There is the option to sync iTunes to my iPod but that will cause me to lose the apps not synced into iTunes. I hope this is specific enough! I don't want to lose my apps, please help!

Never mind, turns out that by uninstalling the programs "Megakey" and "Megaupload" it had resolved this issue.

My computer sees my iPad as a camera and will not sync with iTunes.

My computer sees my iPad as a camera and I can't sync with iTunes.

If there are any photos in the Camera Roll you will get a prompt like you mentioned when connecting your iPad to your computer. It is indeed a good reminder to save those photos to your computer. But if you don't want to copy those photos to your computer then dismiss the window and start iTunes. Once iTunes is running you should e able to sync your iPad.

I just got an iphone 4s. My iphone will not sync with itunes

My phone will not sync with itunes without 10.6.3 itunes which is not compatible with the software that is currently on my mac book. However, My mac does not have a software update available. HELP

It would help if you told us which version system software you have on your Macbook and which version of iTunes and what system requirements say on the side of the phone's box you actually need.

Battery flattened and wanted to perform Restore. Having done that it will not sync with iTunes.

Battery flat after non use. Connected to charger and message came up that I needed to restore the device using iTunes. Did that successfully, but iPod now has nothing on it and it won't sync with iTunes?

Your first question makes it sound like you are trying to add new photos to the iPad and the sync will not complete. Can you sync the iPad without syncing the photos to the iPad?
Sometimes it helps to delete the iPod Photo Cache folder if you have issues syncing photos. If that is the problem that you are having, delete the iPod Photo Cache folder and then try to sync again.

Will I be able to copy my music library from my PC to I pad and listen to it at a remote place without sync and without I tunes match?

Will I b able to copy my music library from PC to I pad while sync and listen to it without sync at a remote place. Is it possible without iTunes Match?

Yes. As long as all your songs you lost have been Matched or Uploaded to iTunes Match you can download your entire library from the cloud.
It might take some time though

Why is it when I press on the music icon on the bottom it says ''you must be synced to the computer to listen to music''? I haven't been able to listen to music in a long time.

Thank you now how do I get the songs on to the flash drive?
Insert the flash drive into the other computer, and open it so it looks like a window. Highlight the songs you want in his iTunes, and drag them into that window.
That will cause them to copy onto the flash drive, and will not affect his library.
If you normally run iTunes in full-screen mode, make it smaller so that you can do the drag.
Then insert the flash drive into your computer. Find your Automatically Add to iTunes folder (it is inside the iTunes media folder) and drag the songs into it.

HT1296 Hiya, I am thinking of buying my first Apple Ipod the new 32gb Ipod Touch. Will I be able to import the music that I currently have in the form of CDs and other music not purchsed from Itunes and if I can how do I go about doing this? I have heard

Hiya, Im thinking of buying my first ipod the Ipod Touch 32gb model. Will I be able to transfer the music I currently have stored in the form of CDs and already on my laptop onto the Ipod and if yes, how would I do this? I have heard from some friends that Apple and Itunes is notoriously limited in the types of formats that are accetable? I dont want to pay £249 on an Ipod only to find that Im locked into buying all my music from Itunes and I cant use the music that Ive already paid good money to buy from other sources. Many thanks for any help and advice that you may give me?

Many thanks JEM24 for your help. Ive just spent the best part of six hundred pounds on a new Sony Rx100m2 compact camera, so I have no interest in the Ipods camera at all really. I doubt Ill be watching many videos on it as Im very lucky in that I have a good Android tablet. Its more as a stock music player that Ill be buying the Ipod for, if indeed I do end up buying one. I dont like the idea of paying the exorbitant amount added for more memory space that Apple along with most other companies charge. In fact I read an article on this very subject just yesterday in the tech section of Flipboard. It stated in the article that in the case of the Iphone the actual cost of each additional gigabyte of storage to Apple et al is something in the order of 60p.. This is certainly not reflected in the price us the customer has to pay at the till.. Its for this reason primarily that Apple in particular, because their products do not allow adding expandable memory of your own in the form of cheap to buy cards, that nobody in their right mind buys the 64gig etc Iphones..I am aware that we are discussing my potential purchase of an Ipod Touch here but you see my point. Many thanks again though for helping me.

Will i be able to listen to music, watch videos and take pictures and sync with itunes without a sim in my locked iphone 5?
