Change account on iPhone to work with my iTunes
Helping a friend here...
She's using her husband's old iPhone, since he just got a new one. The old iPhone already has a number of applications and songs on it, which she wants to keep.
When she connects the phone to her laptop computer, iTunes recognizes the phone -- but as her husband's. She can't add the apps & songs she's downloaded in iTunes to the phone, without erasing what's already on the phone. (When she tries to Sync, it tells her this.)
How can she set up the phone to work with her iTunes, keeping what's already on it and continuing to add new things to it?
You cannot.
The iphone will sync with one and only one computer at a time. When you sync to another, it will indeed erase the current content from the iphone and replace with content from the new computer.
She can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone. Without syncing: File>Transfer purchases
Make sure that the computer is authorized for her husbands itunes account.

hello. I can not configure my major mail account at Mac Mфail - other accounts such as Hotmail and Gmail are working great. Also, I am using that major account at iPhone and iPad with no problem. I had contacted mail provider - we had followed step by step all the settings,, they are correct, and I was suggested to use another mail program. Why, for God's sake I should use different programs for different mail accounts? Anyone, had the same problem?
it says - IMAP - Trying to log into this IMAP account is failed - Verify that username and password are correct
same for SMTP

Will Iphone 4 work with usb 1.1
I have a 3g now and it said it required usb 2.0 but it works fine with 1.1 just a little slow. Will iphone 4 work with my usb 1.1, everything else updated ie itunes?
No,
You need USB 2.0 ports. Per Apples website:
Windows system requirements
* PC with USB 2.0 port
* Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
* iTunes 9.2 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
* iTunes Store account
* Internet access -

Hello Katvan12,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com), click "Manage your Apple ID", and sign in.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you are unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
In the "Apple ID and Primary Email Address section," click Edit.
Enter the email address you want to use, then click Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that address.
Open the email from Apple, then click Verify Now in the email.
Have a nice day,

Will the T-Mobile iPhone 6 work with AT&T LTE?
Will the T-Mobile iPhone 6 work with AT&T LTE? This page seems to indicate it will: http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/ But I imagine the phone could be locked to T-Mobile.
What about the contract free one? It ships with a T-Mobile SIM and is unlocked (e.g. AT&T works with no issues on 4G for me), I'm just unable to get LTE. I've noticed the "carrier" setting is missing from the Settings menus...however when I navigate to the About screen, it downloads the carrier specific updates, so based upon https://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/ it should work, right?
How do you get AT&T LTE on the contract-free/T-Mobile SKU? -
Can a Sprint Iphone 5 work with T-mobile network? How can one unlock with the MSL code? Sprint is not abiding by the Unlocking Consumer Choice and Wireless Competition Act. FCC will only enforce if we file more complains.
T-Mobile is a GSM network whereas Sprint is a CDMA network. They are incompatible. Sprint is not obliged to unlock a phone that is still under contract. Their phones may not be capable of being unlocked.

Will the at&t version of iphone 5 work with t-mobile?
Will the at&t version of iphone 5 work with t-mobile? As I have a t-mobile prepaid plan and I really wanna buy it!!!
And will t-mobile provide me with a nano-sim?Yes, but the officially unlocked iPhone is not available for sale in the US, at present. T-Mobile will have nano sim cards & they are advertising that iPhone 5 owners switch to their service.

Will the Verzion version iPhone 5 work with t-mobile?
I have been wondering will the Verzion version iPhone 5 work with t-mobile?
Just to clarify Meg's answer a bit, it will only work at 3G speeds in some cities. Outside of those few areas where T-Mobile has a 3G network that is compatible with the iPhone in the US, you won't even get that. You'll only get EDGE speeds in most of the country.

Does the unlocked iphone 4 works with other networks besides at
does unlocked iphone 4 works with other network besides at&t like verizon, sprint, and t-mobile ?
An officially unlocked iphone 4 will work with other GSM networks. The ONLY major GSM network in the U.S is T-Mobile ( who are being purchased by AT&T). Currently with T-Mobile you will not get 3G service or visual voicemail with the iphone.

My iPhone 5 pairs with my automobile except it does not allow me to "pickup" calls using the car facility. I've contacted Acura RDX 2013 about this problem. It referred me Apple for a fix. My iPhone 4 worked with the car technology. Is there a fix for the iPhone 5 to allow call pickup via the Acura?
ThanksHI Friend,
Probably the problem it is because your iPhone 4 and your car have the same Bluetooth technology ( 2.1 ), but iPhone 5 has new Bluetooth technology ( 4.0 ).
