Changing sync settings once mobileme has expired

I dropped mobile me, but can't figure out how to change my sync settings for Calendars to be manual instead of "over the air," as iTunes says. Settings on my iMac won't let me change anything because I'm expired. iTunes is stuck on the "over the air" thing.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Robert

Add the MobileMe account back to the iPhone and turn off the calendar and contact syncing on the phone. Then sync to iTunes. This will change the preference in iTunes to show normal syncing again.

How to change sync settings in iTunes

How do you change sync settings in iTunes? I want to be able to connect my iPhone to iTunes and not have my iPhone automatically sync information to/from my computer and iPhone.

At least taking a glance through the iPhone user guide may be a good idea for you especially if you don't know how to change your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. With your iPhone connected to iTunes, select your iPhone under Devices in the iTunes source list. The various tabs for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes will be available in the main iTunes window.

ITunes 10.6 freezes when changing sync settings

Update to iTunes 10.6 on Windows 7 computer today. Now when I try to change my sync settings, and hit "apply" - iTunes freezes and the sync does not complete. I have already tried to factory reset the iPod Nano, and tried to totally uninstall and reinstall iTunes. Any other suggestions?

Uninstall/Reinstall did not work. Same issue with freezing as soon as it's launched.
Just to confirm, this is 10.6.3 64-bit Windows build.

Changing sync settings erases iPod contents

When I upgraded to iTunes 7 the following problem came with it:
Choose my sync settings
Click Apply
Wait for hours as my entire music library (50GB) syncs to my iPod.
Change a syn setting (for example, choose to just sync one playlist instead of all playlists)
Click Apply
The contents of the iPod are wiped, and ONLY the stuff I changed gets synced across to it!!
This still happens with 7.0.1. Anyone know what the problem is?
It would seem that iTunes 7 is one of the worst pieces of software ever released by Apple. I also get the usual freezes that others get amongst other bugs. Given that I'm using an 80GB iPod & a Macbook Pro it would seem that their testing didn't extend very far!

Yes, this is a TERRIBLE problem! I have two computers: one is a laptop where I don't want lots of music cluttering the drive, and one is the desktop iMac which keeps my library. BUT some days I'm working only on my laptop, and want to download a podcast onto the iPod. Two problems:
1. On first run, the default is to "Sync" everything, and there's no way to change the setting until the iPod is plugged in. (This problem is not new to iTunes 7, IIRC.)
2. Apparently now "Sync" means sync, but "Not sync" means ERASE EVERYTHING -- not "hands off". When I plug into the laptop (with its essentials-only music library), I don't want to Sync my music library. But even LESS do I want to ERASE everything. What were the programmers thinking?
The second problem is an amplified problem of an earlier one: it used to be that if I unchecked a podcast or a *photo folder* from a list of otherwise auto-sync stuff, that kind of podcast (or folder of photos) would disappear. So, my solution was to turn off auto-sync altogether, and drag my laptop's new podcasts over one by one so as not to lose other podcasts. That was workable. But now, I can't make my iTunes handle things manually at all, apparently?

Computer crashed! Need to change sync settings!

My old Windows 7 computer crashed. On that computer was my iTunes and my iPhone 4 was synced to it. Now I don't have a computer and I cant, sync music, movies, update software, or anything else. It gives me 2 options when I connect it to my Friends computers, either erase all data and start over from this computer, or just change the iPhone. I need to be able to change my settings on the phone so that when I get my new Windows 7 computer I don't have to start over.

Here's what you can do to save your settings and data to your friends computer until you have a new one, you'll have to repeat the procedure for your new computer.
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to the new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your phone without syncing. Transfer your purchases by right clicking again, this time choosing "transfer purchases". When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards. Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the phone for the first time.

Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.

How do I change sync settings from apple tv to pc

Hi,
I am only seeing in in tunes Photos and summary and when right click on apple tv in devices, it just tells me 'turn off streaming'. So I try to set my settings from automatically to manual, but I do not know how.
Can anyone help me please.
Have a lot of kidsmovies purchased on Apple tv and cannot load them up on itunes.

This is done via the AppleTV. You setup it via AppleTV to just Stream.
So go to ATV and go to settings, computers and tell it to un-link with your computer. Then set it up as a Syncing computer there (note, only one computer can sync with the ATV at a time).
The computer in ATV should have like a Chain Link icon next to it if set for Syncing and not just streaming.
It will give you a 4 digit code to go enter into iTunes on your computer. Once done, then you can have full sync options.

How do I change Syncing settings for Address Book, iCal, etc?

I remember when I setup my operating system, it asked what percent of changes
to Address Book, iCal, etc. I wanted to set between my computers, before I was notified. I think the default was 5%. But I'd like to change that setting. Does anyone know where I can find that?
Thanks,
Paul

Barney-15E,
Thanks that's it.
I always forget to open iSync.
I tried looking in the MobileMe.
Thanks,

How do you change project settings on Premiere Elements 12?

I have Premiere Elements 12. When I view a DVD I created of wedding photos, the edges of people and objects are jagged and generally the photos appear blurry. On my old Premiere Elements 8, I did not have this problem - the pictures on DVDs were clear and sharp. When checking the project setting on Premiere 8, the project settings for Capture was DV which changed all my settings for General and Rendering project settings. On my new Premiere 12, the Capture setting is HDV and I cannot get the General and Rendering settings to change when I change the Capture setting to DV. The online help from Adobe says to correct this, "In the New Project dialog box, click Change Settings," but when I start a new project in Premiere 12, "Adobe Premiere Element Editor" is the only dialogue box that shows and I cannot see a change setting button. Does anyone know how I can change my project settings so that when I select DV it will change all the presets for the General and Video Rendering settings?

The party line is that you cannot change project settings once the project settings have been set. You need to start a new project.
Edit Menu/Project Settings/General does not offer the opportunity for any significant project settings change in this type of situation.
I have discovered that, under certain circumstances, that the user can change the established project preset without starting a new project.
The approach to doing this involves editing the Notepad document of the saved closed project file (project.prel file). I have written about this in the following blog post.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/05/pe11-changing-project-settings-without.html
You need to weigh the pros and cons of going through the procedure or just starting a new project and start the project again.
All of the above being said, on to setting to the correct project preset to match the properties of your source media. Please refer to the issues involved and how to set manually the project preset when the program is not doing the job correctly or best automatically.

To the specifics...if you are doing DV data capture firewire into Premiere Elements 12 Capture Window, the scenario would be...
a. Open Premiere Elements 12 to the Expert workspace, go to File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings. In Change Settings,
change the project preset to NTSC DV Standard or NTSC DV Widescreen depending on NTSC or PAL set up and 4:3 or 16:9 DV data source. Then before you exit that area, make sure to place a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on This Project" in
the new project dialog. Exit that area and return to the Premiere Elements 12 Expert workspace for your Add Media/DV Capture selection.
If you are doing HDV data capture firewire into Premiere Elements 12 Capture Window, then same scenario except the project preset change involves NTSC HDV HDV 1080i30 (if NTSC). In this instance, the Edit Menu/Project Settings/General should look like
Please review and consider and then let me know if I have targeted you question or need clarification.
Thank you.

You cannot.
By Design the iPhone can Only Sync to One iTunes Library at a time.

The software on iphone has expired + Itunes cannot sync apps to the iphone because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined + Can't restore = Help!

Hello guys, I'm begging for your help, I've read so many threads, nothing works for me. I hope you will try to help me
First message I get when I connect the iphone is
"The software on iphone has expired and must be updated to a newer version"
Then it tries to backup but I get
"Itunes cannot sync apps to the iphone because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined"
When I click check for updates it says I have the latest version (5.0)
When I try to restore I always get "iTunes could not backup the iphone because a session could not be started with the iphone. Please disconnect and reconnect the iphone, then try again"
Tried that MANY times but no luck.
This iphone was on a developper account but it is not anymore (removed from developper account).
I'm the administrator on my PC. When I'm on the summary of my iphone it shows N/A as my phone number.
Back up to icloud doesn't work because I didn't set it up before it stopped working
When I try to activate it directly from the iphone I always get "Could not activate iphone. Your iphone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarely unavailable..." (for the past 3 weeks :s)
I can access my music and everything from itunes.
I even tried to restore it from the ispw file (using shift + restore) but I got an error message (sorry I don't remember which one) but it didn't work.
I also tried device manager, select PC, scan hardware for changes (read it worked for some) but not for me after that I don't get the
"The software on iphone has expired and must be updated to a newer version" and "Itunes cannot sync apps to the iphone because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined" ...I just get "Itunes could not back up iphone because a session could not be started with the iphone" + "itunes could not sync because a connection could not be established with the iphone"
Please help me make it work again! I'd go to an apple store but I'm in south-east asia at the moment and there is nothing like it in 700km +
This little machine would be perfect to travel with, it's a shame it just stopped working like 3 weeks ago, just said I needed to activate it again ...
Thanks a million times!

I can't access it on the iphone as I said
On itunes in summary I have "Software version: 5.0"
Yes I tried to restore it
"When I try to restore I always get "iTunes could not backup the iphone because a session could not be started with the iphone. Please disconnect and reconnect the iphone, then try again" ...did that many times but always the same error message
"I even tried to restore it from the ispw file (using shift + restore) but I got an error message (sorry I don't remember which one) but it didn't work."

SBS 2008 RWW displays "Your password has expired. Change it on the Change Password page."

I have one User Account that when logging into RWW , a dialog (as attached) comes up? From my experience, when a password needs to be changed you are simply taken to the change password screen to enter old password and new. This AD account even has Password
does not expire set.
Even after changing password in AD this comes up - there are some other worrying things happening with this account as when the User opened their mailbox all of their Unread Items were marked as Read. Not sure if this is related.
When I login with another Test User Account, I cannot force the same dialog to come up and a google does not show me much.
Could RWW of been compromised or is there something in User AD Account? I ended up resetting Users' password via AD just to be safe, but dialog still comes up.

Hi,
Did this encounter for all the user accounts or just for a specific one?
In general,if it is determined that the user must change the password upon logging on to the site (for example, the password has expired or set to User must change password at next logon), the logon page will present that error message to the user.
Please check the prperties of that user account to see if you have selected "User must change password at next logon"check box.
In addition, please check the default domain policy via the path below: Computer Configuration/Windows Settings/Security Settings/Account Policies/Password Policy
Pleae check the value you have configured for “Maximum password age”.
Best regards,
Susie

How can I change the settings so notes don't sync to my email?

I don't like how notes always syncs to my email, because it's pretty much send my diary out, even it there's not much stuff there. How do I change the settings so they don't sync?
Thanks. It might seem like an obvious question, but I can't find the preferences in settings.

Go to Preferences in Mac Mail on your computer. Open Accounts. Open Gmail Account. Select Mailbox behaviors and uncheck "Show notes in inbox". I just figured it out a couple minutes ago, but so far notes will update on the computer, iphone and ipad and nothing has been erased.

While playing music on my iphone 5, i am now unable to play, pause, or skip songs while my phone is locked. I can still change the volume and slide the scrub through songs. This has always worked for me until now. I have not changed any settings

While playing music on my iphone 5, i am now unable to play, pause, or skip songs while my phone is locked. I can still change the volume and scrub through songs. This has always worked for me until now. As far as i know, i have not changed any settings. This is whle my phone is locked both on the slide up toolbar/menu interface and on the normal screen before i slide to unlock.

I skimmed through this very long post but from what I read, this sounds much more like a coverage issue with your network than a device issue. I have not seen or heard of this issue before and I do not have this issue personnally and & I use the music app quite frequently while working in the yard.
The DND feature should not be a factor at all if you're sure it's turned off. I always recommend restarting your phone by holding down the home button + the lock button for 10-12 seconds until the Apple logo appears. Once the phone reboots, do a test to see if this has helped to resolve the issue.
If not, go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Then, test it out again. Post back if neither of these solutions solve your issue.
