Does my new Ipad and Ipod need antivirus protection?
Does my new Ipad and Ipod need antivirus protection?
well, it depends on how you define a virus, theorically, ios is not prone to viruses, and since ios has built-in security measures (link bellow) theres nothing to fear
and also-since there are more windows users (in theory) than ios users (and again the security) it will be way easier to target windows OS then IOS

PDF FILE NEEDS ADOBE READER / ACROBAT / IE WITH PLUG-INS
READ--> kaspery insisted for apple to open up ios architecutre so companies could devolp antivirus software, but apple made the pdf (above) to prove ios dosent need it
hopes this helps

I am planning a long vacation and taking my laptop but it is my home computer that my new ipad and ipod touch are synced too. I know i can backup to the cloud over wifi but how can i do things like delete photo albums instead of having to manually delete pictures one by one on the Ipad. Is there any way also to add my pictures to the ipad other than through email. i am assuming that i can't just install itunes on the laptop and sync to that. I have been told that i always have to sync to my original synced home computer for that.
The links below have instructions for deleting photos.

My computer recognizes my old iPhone, iPad and iPod but NOT my new iPhone what the heck? It was fine last week, now nothing
When you plug in your phone go to the sidebar on the left, select the device, and select the menu you want to sync.
For example at the top there is summary, info, apps, movies, etc.
If you wanted to sync movies go under there and pick and chose the movies you want on the device.
Let's assume you are doing that and syncing is not going properly. Then first double check that there is a checkmark in the top left of that page that says sync movies
If there is uncheck and then hit apply. Then it will take all the movies off. Now re-check everything and hit apply. -
My iPhone, iPad and iPod are all associated with the same Apple ID. How can I remove the iPod and associate it with a new Apple ID without affecting the data on the other devices (note: there is no data on the iPod I want to keep)?
Very simple. Turn off Find my iDevice, then Tap Settings, General, Erase, Erase all content and settings.

Can I do this and log into my itunes account on both of my PC's and keep them seperate like this?
Yes as long as you have authorized both computers with your iTunes account, you should be good to go.

I recently got a new PC and had all of my files moved to it. However, when I sync my iPad and IPod nano I get a message that states that 41 of my items can not be copied to the PC because it is not authorized on my account even though it is. I have tried de-authorizing it and re-authorizing it but they still will not copy. Any thoughts on how I can get them to copy?
"Note: If you no longer have access to a computer that is using one of your authorizations, you can deauthorize all of the computers associated with your account by following the steps at the bottom of About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization".
Authorize the new computer. Launch iTunes. Go to the menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer.

I need a new phone and iPod, would I be able to use an iPhone as a phone and iPod, without having to purchase the internet date plan?
You cannot do this. iPhones have to be activated with a service plan before any of the features, including the iPod features can be used.

My computer crashed. I now have a new one and I need to know how to sync my iPad without losing the photos, contacts, podcasts, apps, etc I have on my iPad. Can anyone help?
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Some items cannot be redownloaded. You will need third-party software for them - Phone to Mac - Pod to Mac | Macroplant.com or Phone to PC | macroplant.com depending on your hardware.
You might consider modifying your profile information so we will know what your hardware, OS, etc. is. Makes it easier to provided assistance. -
Have been here before but still have not resolved a fix for a black screen when I try to access a PDF file using Safari...Now I've got a new iPad and need the User Guide which is only available in PDF and FireFox will not work.
Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you. -
I forgot my restriction password and I can't delete any app. I can't download anything either, I've filled up all the space in my iPad, and I need to update my iPad in order to restore it. But my iPad needs space in order to update to a newer vers. of ios.. I've also tried to restore to the previous backup, but it yet doesn't work. Please help :c!
I told you, I can't restore iOS. In order to restore my iPad, I need to update it to iOS 7.0.4, but my iPad needs available space to update, but I don't have any. I can't delete anything at all, so yeah.. are there any possible ways to restore my ipad without updating? If not, please state other ways to solve this problem.
