Using iCloud and iTunes match, should I still wirelessly sync with my computer iTunes?

Using an iPhone 4 with the latest updates. I keep getting an error message syncing over my wireless network that says "Cannot sync phone. There are too many files open" from iTunes on my compter. Should I turn off the wireless syncing now that I'm using iCloud and iTunes Match?
There are 4 iPhones that are using this feature on our network, plus AppleTV 2.

Even though you have iTunes match and iCloud, there are several other types of media that aren't included in either of the services, such as movies, photos etc, if you aren't syncing any of these to your phones, then you may well be able to turn iTunes wifi sync off.
Personally, I would want to find the cause of the error message and use the iTunes sync for backup, I consider it far more reliable and convenient than iCloud for back up

I AM STRUGGLINT TO ACCESS MY IPHOTO'S AND HAVE TO GO THROUGH APPLICATIONS TO ACCESS MY PHOTOS. HOW CAN I CORRECT THIS PLEASE. DOES THE MAC HAVE A DEFRAG? TX

I am having problems viewing my iPhoto from the dock and have to go through my applications to view. What do I have to do to correct this please? Also does the Mac have a defrag function? I have also been advised by the sales person that the Mac does not need an antivirus programme, is this true?

I'm sorry but your post make no sense
first off All Caps is not necessary and makes things hard to read and is consider shouting - it is rude
Second you do not have "an iPhoto" - iPhoto is an application that manages photos - the photos are stored (by default) in the iPhoto library in a SQL lite database and you use the iPhoto program to manage them
I am having problems viewing my iPhoto from the dock and have to go through my applications to view.
can you please explain this in some detail. When you launch iPhoto by clicking on the iPhoto icon in the Dock what happens?
As to your other OS questions this is certainly not hte best place to address them - we are iPhoto users just like yourself here --- basically as I understand it (and I have had had Macs for 30+ years) there is no "defrag and you do not need one - and antivirus is your choice - most people feel it is a waste of money on a Mac but some like to have it

Does PSE6-Mac have Date/Calendar View?

Hello
Years ago, I used PSE for windows and I liked the date/calendar view, especially since, if I remember correctly, I could add text to a date even if I didn't have photos associated with that date.
Does PSE6-Mac have this date/calendar feature?
If not, do you know of a calendar application that does link with a set of photos, to link by date
Thank you -
Marion in Rochester

No.
PSE for the Mac has no Organizer features whatsoever.

HT1338 new to macs - have 10.4.11 and an iMac 2 - older Mac by today's standards - is there a version of Itunes that would work on the OS?

I'm not certain what you mean by iMac 2. Is that the lamp shade model -- round half ball with stem & lcd display?

Why does my ipod have on the screen the itunes symbol and the cord and an arrow pointing to the itunes symbol? I can't get it to do anything.

Why does my ipod have on its screen the itunes symbol and the cord with an arrow pointing to the itunes symbol. I can't do anything with my ipod now!

Plug it into iTunes. If that does not work hold the power and home button untill the screen turns off then let go of the power button but KEEP holding the home button... this should bypass the connect to iTunes screen. Hope it helps.

You can't merge two iTunes accounts.

Does iPad air have flash for pictures and video rec.?

Does iPad Air have flash for camera and video rec.?

Do you mean flash the program? or flash as in a camera flash?
The answer to both is no.
Apple products do not natively support the flash program. ANd iPads do not have the LED light for a flash.

I have an iBook G4 and iTunes is no longer updating. The last update is 9.2.1 but it doesn't support my iPhone or iPad. Is there anything I can do to update iTunes or is my only recourse to update my laptop?

As Niel has suggested Mac OS X 10.5 Lepaord.
But first of all make sure that your iBook is above 800Mhz and you have at least 512 Meg of memory. (1 GB recommended)
Please note, that if you do install Mac OS X 10.5 on your iBook, it will not allow you to install the latest version of iTunes version 11. The most recent version of iTunes that can be installed would be 10.5, which will be compatible with your iPod touch 4th gen, provided it's not been updated to iOS 6.
Sadly you can't install any version of Mac OS X above 10.5 Leopard, as it they requires an Intel processor, which your iBook G4 does not have.
Hope this helps.

I have a new computer and itunes content didn't transfer - it doesn't recognize me, all my apps are gone, what do I do, I have a new computer and itunes content didn't transfer - it doesn't recognize me, all my apps are gone, what do I do

I received a new laptop. the person that transferred all of my files, didn't know what they were doing when transferring itunes content. Now I have my new computer and itunes doesn't contain all of my music. I don't know how to set it up to recognize my account and I don't see any of my apps. What do I do now?

Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.

I have done my updates and itunes is no longer recognizing my iphone as a device. My phone shows that it is plugged in but when I open itunes, my iphone doesn't come up as a device.

Mac OS 10.4.11 and iTunes 8.2 in April 2011 - no access to music

I understand Mac OS 10.4.11 and iTunes 10 are not compatible, but why can't I keep using my iTunes 8.2 with my OS10.4.11 to access music on iTunes? Does anyone know how to make this work?
There's too much bullying of people who are not adopting updates within the timeframes Apple feels are appropriate.

Thanks Diane! I'm downloading it now. I didn't know there were still newer versions of iTunes that would work with my current system (10.4.11). To answer your question: I've been able to access my library, but as of this week, I can't access the store. First, it was only the store main page (many months ago) that wouldn't appear. A warning came up, "please update." But I could search for artists and go to their specific pages. Now, I can't even do that.
I never updated to 10.5 because the word was Logic Pro (audio software) wasn't working well with the then new 10.5. So I stuck with 10.4.11. Everything has been problem free. Now we're far beyond that system, and so me (and others, I'm sure), are getting flushed into incompatibility because we can't afford an intel processor.
I guess finally purchasing a now rare 10.5 system update would hold off my extinction.
Anyway, thanks again!
