Can I use my iphone with my new laptop?

Hi all;
I've bought a new laptop and want to pair my iphone with my new laptop. Is there any problem?

That's useless if what you want to have on your phone and what you have in your iTunes library are different. Another example of Apple's terrible software design, making these otherwise beautiful devices difficult to use.

  • Previous laptop crashed, got a new laptop but I can't use my iphone with it

    My old laptop crashed and is now inaccessible. Not only is all my music on itunes on that computer, but it was also the computer that I used to sync my iphone 4 with for updates, music, and other media files. So now with my new laptop, I can't put more music on my iphone 4 and I can't download the iOS 5 update.I can authorize my itunes account on my new laptop, but I can't download the update or manage the music on my iphone without clearing everything that is on my iphone. Retrieving the music wouldn't be a problem if all my music was bought from itunes on my account, however a large part of my music is from other sources. I'd also like to download the iOS 5 update without completely wiping out my iphone 4.
    Any way I can sync my iphone with my new laptop that won't clear my iphone's memory? And is it possible to get my music from my old laptop back? I know this question is similar to others that have previously been asked, but its different in that my old laptop is completely inaccessible.
    Extra info:
    -I tried to backup my old laptop when it was pretty much dead. I was able to backup some files, however not my music.
    -Both laptops are PCs.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    What exactly is it that you are concerned about losing.
    What did you have before your new Mac.

    can i use my iphone 3 in new zealand with a nz sim card in it without it needing to be unlocked?

    That depends... its is ALREADY unlocked? If so, then you should be fine.  If the phone is carrier locked, then no, obviously you can't use it with a SIM from another carrier without getting it unlocked first.

  • How can i use my iphone with more than one itunes

    how can i use my iphone with more than one itunes

    Sync iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers
    Although it isn't possible to sync an Apple device with two different libraries it is possible to sync with the same logical library from multiple computers. Each library has an internal ID and when iTunes connects to your iPod/iPad/iPhone it compares the local ID with the one the device normally syncs with. If they are the same you can go ahead and sync...
    I have my library cloned to a small 1Tb USB drive which I can take between home & work. At either location I use SyncToy 2.1 to update the local copy with the external drive. Mac users should be able to find similar tools. I can open either of the local libraries or the one on the external drive and update the media content of my iPhone. The slight exception is Photos which normally connects to a specific folder on a specific machine, although that can easily be remapped to the current library if you create a "Photos" folder inside the iTunes Media folder so that syncing the iTunes folders keeps this up to date as well. I periodically sweep my library for new files & orphans with iTunes Folder Watch just in case I make changes at one location but then overwrite the library with a newer copy from the other. Again Mac users should be able to find similar tools.
    As long as your media is organised within an iTunes Music or Tunes Media folder, in turn held inside the main iTunes folder that has your library files (whether or not you let iTunes keep the media folder organised) each library can access items at the same relative path from the library folder so the library can be at different drives/paths on different machines. This solution ensures I always have adequate backups of my library and I can update my devices whenever I can connect to the same build of iTunes.
    When working with an iPhone earlier builds of iTunes would remove any file not physically present in the local library, even if there was an entry for it, making manual management practically redundant on the iPhone. This behaviour has been changed but it will still only permit manual management with a library that has the correct internal ID. If you don't want to sync your library between machines on a regular basis just copy the iTunes Library.itl file from the current "home" machine to any other you want to use, then clean out the library entries and import the local content you have on that box.

  • Hi, I lost my computer. How can I sincronize my iphone with the new computer without loose my contacts and apps?

    Hi,
    I lost my computer.
    How can I sincronize me Iphone with the new computer without loose my contacts and apps?
    Thanks

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
    Use your backup copy to move everything to the new computer.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone:  File>Transfer Purchases
    If you enter one unique contact and calendar entry on your computer, then when you first sync you should get the option to merge the data.

  • HT4865 i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?

    i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?

    You have to delete the old account, provide the password for the ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos that are not in your camera roll, save them to your camera roll before deleting the account (open your my photo stream album, tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward facing arrow, then tap Save to Camera Roll).

    The laptop I originally synch'd my iphone 4s with is broken and cannot retrieve any files. How can I sync the phone with a new laptop without losing all my downloaded music and apps already installed on my iphone?

    If the answer to the above question is "yes", FIRST, set up a backup of your new computer before you do anything else so the next time your computer breaks you will not be in the same situation. Backup solutions are numerous and inexpensive, and there is absolutely no excuse in the Third Millennium not to have one.

  • My old MacBook pro died, got a new Mac can I use my cs4 with my new computer?

    MMy old MacBook pro died, got a new Mac, can I use my cs4 with my new computer? Do I need to buy a new license?

    Using Time Machine, or any other such program, to transfer Adobe software from one machine to another works probably less than five percent of the time. Uninstall from your new machine. Run the cleaner tool (do a search for Cleaner Tool on this site if you don't know what it is). Then reinstall properly from original media or downloads.

  • I want to buy an iphone 5s (GSM, SIM-Free). While I travelling to India, can I use the iphone with a local-SIM in INDIA.

    I want to buy an iphone 5s (GSM, SIM-Free).
    While I travelling to India, can I use the iphone with a local-SIM in INDIA.

    I am looking into buying an iphone 5s (GSM, SIM-Free) from apple store in US.
    While in India, I am looking to use it with a local-SIM (Local carrier) in INDIA (Eg: Airtel, Vodaphone etc). Will it work ?
    While browsing iphone products in the Apple store, I did not find any iphone referring to "Unlocked" but ended up with SIM-free as the only option (http://store.apple.com/us/buy-iphone/iphone5s/64gb-gold-unlocked?aid=www-k2-ipho ne%205s%20-%20index-n@p&cp=k2-iphone%205…).
    I also found the following information from the apple store - When you travel internationally, you can use a nano-SIM card for iPhone 5s from a local GSM carrier. The unlocked iPhone 5s model is A1533 (GSM).
    If Apple is the only source of unlocked iphones, could someone provide the link to the store.

  • Can I use my iPhone with home?

    Can I use my iPhone with home?

    Possibly. With iOS 4.3 and later, you can stream audio from third-party apps, like Pandora Radio, installed on your iPhone ONLY if the developer for the app has added AirPlay functionality. I did a quick review of this app from the Apple App Store and it did not mention having this feature.

  • Can I use my iPhone with my Mac and PC's iTunes?

    Can I use my iPhone with my Mac and PC's iTunes interchangeably?
    Will it erase all my songs?
    I am assuming since both versions of iTunes (Mac and PC) are registered under my email it's okay--- would that be right?
    I don't want to have to put back each song again
    thanks in advance!
    aaron

    With the iPhone, you can sync all iTunes content with only one computer. Trying to sync iTunes content with a second computer will result in iTunes erasing the content from the first computer. However, non-itunes content such as contacts, calendars, mail settings, notes, etc. (anything in the Info pane) can be synced from another computer.
