Buy at Amazon.  Back up stuff for free.  iTunes doesn't.  Dare you to post this.

Lost all my files -- on iTunes anyway.  No help getting them back.  Everything I got from Amazon is still availaable.  Guess where I'm buying everything from now on?

Buy from wherever you wish. We, your fellow users, have no vested interest in the business you care to patronize. But maybe, just maybe, you might consider asking for assistance before you "flame on"?

    You can create a new Apple ID without using a credit card for download free apps by following this guide: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534.  Follow it exactly as writtien.  Note that you have to download and try to install a free app and then create the ID.

  • Simple question:  I want to use iCloud as a back up disk for my documents folder.  How can I do this?  If I cannot do this, why am I paying for access to "the cloud?"

    Simple question:  I want to use iCloud as a back up disk for my documents folder.  How can I do this?  If I cannot do this, why am I paying for access to "the cloud?"

    iCloud does not provide general file storage or backup, so you cannot back up your Documents folder using it. You will need to find a third-party alternative - this page examines some options (some are free):

    iCloud at basic level, with 5GB is storage, is free: you only pay anything if you want to increase the storage space.

    I have a new iPhone 4s and downloaded some free apps formt eh app store.  A few days later my phone had updates to install on the apps but kept taking me to the billing details on my phone.  I deleted the apps as it was doing my head in.  I recently downloaded the 'free' apps again and I have been charged for them!!!  How do I stop this from happening and get my money back as I have been clearly ripped off!

  • Is imovie not for free i dont get why you need to buy it??

    I really want this app and i dont like to spend money on apps can you just let it be free??

    You get the app for free if you have purchased a new device since September. Purchase a device, activate it, then use the same ID you used to activate it to download the app and it's free.
    For the rest of the world, it's not free.

  • Can you buy a slide out keyboard case for the six plus? Like you can for the 6.

    can you buy a slide out keyboard case for the 6 plus?

    There are 2 separate issues here:
    - The Apple 30 pin to USB cable was redesigned to remove the 2 button squeeze feature pricesley because of your issue with the buttons falling off and consumers being unable to disconnect the cords.  The newly redesigned cable removes these 2 side buttons for a shorter 30 pin connector that will work just fine in Apple devices.  If there is an ergonomic reason for wanting the larger 2 button design you can buy a host of 3rd party Apple 30 pin to USB cables on the market.  http://store.apple.com/us/product/MA591G/C/apple-30-pin-to-usb-cable?fnode=3a
    http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Meter-Charging-Cable-iPhone/dp/B004SBBD8U/ref =sr_1_5?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1370983635&sr=1-5&keywords=30+pin+apple+usb - 3rd party Apple 30 pin USB cable that should replace the functionality you are looking for.
    - The issue of your iPad reporting that it isn't charging is a DIFFERENT issue.  Your USB cable is FINE.  The reason you are getting this message is beacuse the Power Adaptor that the USB cable plugs into isn't providing enough electrical juice.  If you are plugging your USB cable into your PC it might not be getting enough power.  If you are plugging it into your iPhone Power Adaptor (5W) it isn't strong enough to charge your iPad with it on (it will trickle charge if you have your iPad off).  What you need is the Apple 12W charger for iPad.  Your original power adapter that came with you iPad 2 was a 10W charger that Apple no longer sells.  Make sure the USB cable you are using it plugged into either a 10W or 12W power adapter!  http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_ipad/ipad_accessories/power
    Tech speak if interested: the 12W charger uses the USB cable to detect which iPad is connected and gives it 1 AMP for iPhone, 2.1 AMP for iPad 1,2 & Mini and 2.4 AMP for iPad 3&4.

    If that doesn't seem to work, confirm that you're using the correct iTunes Store account. You may not be using the one that the tracks were purchased under. If that doesn't help, post back with full details as to the problem, including error messages if any.

  • HT3209 If i buy a standar definition movie on iTunes, can I download the HD version later for a lower price? Can I download the other vertions (I mean in language and stuff) for free or a lower prize?

    I just want to know if by purchasing a movie on iTunes, can I download other vertions of the same movie? Like subtitle editions and other language editions or get a lower prize when purchasing the same movie in a higher definition... Etc?

    No. To purchase other versions of movies on the iTunes Store you'll have to pay full price for those versions. The content owners control this licensing and pricing to a large extent.

  • If you re-download purchased items from the icloud are you downloading it for free or is it charging you again?? because when you press the download button you have to add your password and press buy again

    so still a little confused it gives you a huge list of the stuff you have purchased and stuff that is no longer in your library with the option to re-download it but i'm still not sure if it is free to download it or whther we are having to pay for it again??? can anybody help???

    No, I have not taken my phone for exchange as I think it is a coin toss as to if the new one will be better or possibly have issues I do not have on this one.
    I also get emails, and with Mobile Me almost instantly, just like Steve Jobs showed. Mobile Me works great, as do all the other emails, so I do not think this is an issue with just my phone. The problem only occurs under the following conditions.
    1) I use Wi-Fi to browse the Internet, get email, or whatever.
    2) I then turn on 3G in an area that does not have 3G and barely has Edge (Wi-Fi is off).
    3) I go to work where I get full bars on 3G.
    Now, at work after I have done the 3 above things, I get no emails on any email account, including Mobile Me until I either power the phone all the way off or completely close out the email App by holding down the home button. If I do power the phone off after using Wi-Fi before I go to bed for example, then email works fine.

  • Backing up stuff for new Mac

    Guys,
    I'm in the process of getting a new Mac.
    I therefore need to back up the following to my external HD:
    iPhone Apps.
    iTunes.
    iPhoto.
    Calendar.
    Contacts.
    What would be the best and safest method to do this? Is there a way to backup EVERYTHING (bar the applications) from my current Mac to my external HD?
    With the iPhone I'm worried that when I go to sync the iPhone to the new Mac things will go pear shaped!!

    Guys,

    Will you get the new one while you still have the old one? If so, when you set up the new one, you'll be asked if you already have a Mac, and given the opportunity to transfer your settings, data, apps, etc., directly from it, or from Time Machine backups.
    What would be the best and safest method to do this? Is there a way to backup EVERYTHING (bar the applications) from my current Mac to my external HD?
    Yes. Time Machine was designed to do exactly that (including apps). And you should do backups regularly. not just when getting a new Mac. TM was designed to do exactly that, too.

    If you have a problem setting-up or using Time Machine, start with the Time Machine - Troubleshooting *User Tip* at the top of this forum.

  • After my first questio: can not find the link for free download firefox 6. You answered and I used the link you send. nr 5 was downloaded but it did not work on a minimac it said the version of the mac does not allow it. What to do use the 3.6

    The upgrade notification did not give a free download icon so I asked you and you replyed with an email with a link. I went to the page and could happily download nr 5 instead of 6 but well.
    Now firefox gives still the notification to upgrade and what i downloaded does not work on my mac with safari.
    So can i savely stay with 3.6 ?

    You can't use Firefox 4 on Mac OS X 10.4, on on 10.5 you need the Intel chip.
    It would be easier if you replied to your original question, so someone can see what you are talking about. There are a lot of questions asked even in a single day so we can't see what that was easily. If you need to redownload 3.6.17 then

    I doubt that Firefox 5 or 6 would be any different, once support is dropped for hardware or operating system it stays dropped, you need to stay with version 3.
