I downloaded a book from iBooks and it only had 46 pages and had loads of spelling errors. How can I claim my money back? Before the download, it did not show how many pages the book contained like it normally does.
use the Report a Problem link on your receipt or in the purchases area of you iTunes account.

FoxTabs looked pretty cool and I was interested in using it, but I didn't expect it would remove all of my FastDial information that I have built up over the past 5 years!
I would still like to do this, but I really need the FastDial pages restored, I have links I do not even remember and would be hard pressed to even come close to restoring what seems to be lost. It still shows FastDial as an installed add on, but it doesn't open to it. Please help!is it compatible with Firefox 5.0 ??

By any chance, did you have the Find My iPhone app installed prior to it being stolen?
Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product
Hopefully you had your iTunes purchases backed up to an external source such as an external drive or CD's? -
I have deleted a conversation and it held a very important video, I need to get that back i didnt download it into my photo album and i didnt back it up into my itunes and my ICloud is turned off because i had a problems with it. How can i get that video back?
No way to recover it unless the other person didn't delete it on their end but the Perfect time to activate iCloud Drive and you won't ever need to worry. If you set it up correctly.

If they were on your phone when you last backed up you could try restoring to your backup. This may restore them if you follow this user tip: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
Would you mind telling me which anti-virus package you use? It may be that it is disturbing iTunes when it tries to write out the fresh database, as it does after almost any activity with your library. I'm noticing more of this type of problem than usual and trying to see if there is any pattern. It may help to prevent a repeat of the problem if you look at the advanced options for your AV package and see if you can find a way to exclude the iTunes folder from any real-time scanning process.

I was updating my software on my iphone 4 and it crashed so it recovered it and i restored it from its back up. However I have lost all my music and my apps but not my pictures. How can i get my music back. I did not remove my phone from the computer until it had said it had finsihed.
Media and apps are not part of the backup. They need to be re-synced from your itunes library or re-downloaded from the store.

I reinstalled my OS and now it wants to empty my phone. How can I get it to back up my phone without removing the data?
You can't. But if you backed up your computer prior to wiping it out, you should be able to restore your iTunes library, contacts, photos, etc. from that backup. Once you do, you can set the phone up again and just sync everything from your library back to it.
If you didn't back the computer up either, you can transfer items purchased on the phone into iTunes, and if you set up at least one contact in whatever application you sync your contacts to on the computer, it will offer to merge the address books on the first sync, saving those. Any media you'd acquired from sources other than the iTunes store will have to be re-downloaded from the source or re-ripped.
The iPhone is NOT a backup device. -
This my second computer in the last two years. The first one fell and broke but I had only $20 worth of Itune stuff on the first one so I did not bother however this second computer I have tons of apps and music. I have lost all my apps while I was trying to backup my iphone with my new computer. I am wondering how can i get those apps back. How can I safely syn my iphone to my new computer without losing any more stuff.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Certainly after losing everything once, you started doing the basics and have a backup copy.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( twice), then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone: Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
Make sure that you have your computer authorized to your itunes account. -
i am having macbook air recently my iphotos did not open and was showing report apple and reopen but i came to know that by pressing alt and iphotos i open an new photo library and stored the pics but now how can i get the pics which i had in the earlier photo please help me to recover my photos
Well I'll guess you're using iPhoto 11:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

I turned off my phone and when I turned it back on, all my apps were deleted. I tried to reinstall my apps, but it wouldn't let me. My storage still remained the same even though, all my apps were deleted. How can I get my apps back?
Hold the home and power button down until your phone restarts. If that doesn't work, backup and restore using iTunes.
