Charging for first time: Will Itunes auto sync ?
I'm about to charge a new 4 gHz Nano for the first time , using a Windows XP PC. I will charge it for a few hours in advance of giving it to my son for his birthday tomrrow. One quick question...
We currently have Itunes 7.0 on the PC with two different playlists (his and mine), plus some podcasts of mine. When I plug in the Nano to the PC for the first time, will it just charge the unit of will Itunes automatically launch and sync the existing Itunes music? I'm looking to avoid having my son getting all of my music with the first sync.
Nano 4Ghz Windows XP
When you plug the new Nano in for the first time, it will get installed (if it's charged enough)--or, it will just charge until it's ready. Then you'll get boxes with choices. Since you and your son will have different music on your players, it's probably best to choose the manual update option when that screen opens. Once the iPod is charged, with the manual update option selected, you'll be able to choose the playlists/songs you want to load on your son's new Nano.
Happy Birthday to him! I hope he loves his gift!

My refurbished iPad 3 charged for first time it and charger got very hot is that normal
just replaced my refurbished iPad 3 with another. Tried to charge it for first time. Noticed it got very hot and so did charger. I don't recall my other iPad doing this is this a defect in the ipad?
Define "hot".
If fully drained both the battery (that essentially fills up most of the body of the device) and the charger will get quite warm, though not unbearable. Time to charge will vary according to device: my iPad 4 takes about 6 hours if almost flat, but takes about 40 min if at 75%.
Be sure to use ONLY its original charger OR chargers that are rated for iPads. They draw twice the current as phones and will cause phone chargers to get much warmer than usual. -
How do I sync my iPad for first time to iTunes?
I have iPad 2. I had and iPhone 1 and when I try to sync for the first time and try to get updates of apps it wouldn't let me. What do I do?
Hi -
I seem to have the same problem as igmackenzie.
Nothing happens when I plug in the iPad. I need to manually open iTunes, but Devices are empty.
iPad is recognised on my computer as an external device only.
How do I get iTunes to recognise the iPad under 'Devices'?

Using wall charger and am now getting error message "charging not supported by this accessory." Have been using since December and this is first time I have encountered this.
Did you look to see if there is debris or dust causing the problem? Get a flashlight and take a look to make sure.
Is there something in the USB end of the cord perhaps?
You didn't answer this question ....Are you using the charger and cord that came with your iPad?
You could try changing cords if you have another one available to see if it is the cord. Have you tried connecting to your computer to see if you get the same message?
You could try a hard reset by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears, let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. Then try the charger again. -

New P-book: OK to use while charging for first time?
Hi All,
I'm getting my Powerbook today. Can I plug it in and set it all up while it's charging, or SHOULD I wait until it's fully charged? Thanks in advance for anyone's help.
-MikeNo, this will not do any damage. The thing you should do though is after that first charge is complete, go ahead and drain down to zero percent, so that it will be calibrated.
People who leave the battery charged in all the time while using the computer, do not have the battery go bad because they are using it plugged in. The reason it goes bad in that situation is because they aren't keeping the juices flowing in the battery! They don't take it off the A/C, the chemicals don't keep moving, so that shortens the life. That is why you should use a portable, not connected to A/C at least one or two times per week to at least 70 percent (use 25 to 30 percent of battery) or so.
However, the actual using of the machine while connected to A/c is no problem. Just be sure to regularly use it via battery too, to keep the chemicals moving. -
hard drive on my mac died, installed new hard drive. When I try to sync my phone for the first time, will the computer wipe all the songs, photos, ibooks from my phone?
Yes because that information is not located on the hard-drive of your new mac! If it is purchased content from the store, than this issue isn't as bad as it looks!
Here is a link explaining how to get your previously purchased content back:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
You also want to authorize your Apple ID account on the computer by following these instructions as well:
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH1730
Basically this link explains to go to the top left corner of your screen where you will see file, edit, view etc! Click on Store in that section and click on authorize this computer, also you want to make sure that the computer will not automatically sync by going to iTunes in the top left corner, just to the right of the apple symbol if iTunes is selected, and go to prefrences, and here you will see back up! Right under the back-ups has an option explaining to prevent devices from automatically syncing which is good cause you may be able to transfer your purchases from there which will put your content into the computer, and if that happens than we don't lose anything
Hopefully I was of some help:) -
if i bought my ipod touch 32gb in germany where the voltage is 220v and i live in America where the voltage is 110, i will have to wait to get to my home to charge it for first time or I can charge it here and change the voltage of the battery in America?
please i need help, im worried that if I connect my ipod here, it will burn or sometihng bad.Just connect it to a computer's USB port.
Most wall chargers are dual voltage (110- 220 volts) and only require a plug adopter. Check the wall charger to see if yours is. -

How do I sync my new ipad mini with my old ipad 2, without losing any apps or data in notes? I need step by step instructions for first-time sync with ipad mini. Thanks.
If you synced it many times, you have to have a backup. It's just a question of how old that backup is now. When did you last sync?
First of all launch iTunes on your computer and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. Do you see any backups for you iPad in that window? If so, how new is the newest backup? That will be the backup that you will want to use. But remember that if you use that backup and it is one month old, you can only restore from that date back in time. Anything that you did on the iPad in the past month will not be in that backup.
Turn on the new iPad Minin and start activating OTA via WiFi. You will get to a certain point in the process where you will be given the choice to Set up as new, Restore from iCloud - or Restore from iTunes. You will want to select Restore from iTunes.
That is the short and sweet version. There are step by step instructions in this article. This applies to the mini as well as the iPad 4 or the iPad 3 for that matter.

help. tried for first time to use FaceTime with another iPhone user & call refused to connect. Call would dial, allow us to accept call, then error message "FaceTime failed" would appear & call disconnect. we are both on wi-fi networks, both phones have updated software & both enabled FaceTime with iTunes logged in. don't know what else to do to get FaceTime to connect. Someone please help.
Thanks Helen for the response. At least you can get some of the contacts to work. Absolutely none of mine will. Feel like my phone is cheating me out something it should do. Think I'm going to just have to dump all the Apple products in general because this phone hasn't worked right since I got it.

HT5312 I'm trying to buy iTunes for first time, but can't verify security questions.
I'm trying to buy iTunes for first time and can't answer security questions.
<Personal Information Edited by Host>The page that you posted from has instructions for how to reset them i.e. if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should give you a reset link.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset (these are user-to-user forums).
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use
