HT201617 does downloading from itunes use my home internet data??
does downloading from itunes use my home internet data??
in other words, does it contribute to my download limit?All transactions through the home internet (be it your wi-fi base, or wired Ethernet) would be
the same total on the monthly limits for that service. However the costs for downloads via
your home network and ISP, may be less than using a cellular network and data rate/limits.
Depending on what the product is, in use for these iTunes downloads. An iPad, iPod, or
iPhone that can be set to use wi-fi from non-cellular sources, gives you an option, so it
could be used to go online with those, anywhere; including free sources instead of one
of the cellular plan giants.
So I am not sure what other parameters your question is meant to address.
Could you clarify the situation a little better, to specify if only an ISP is the
main or only source of internet, or if there's some other device involved..?
I know that if I stream or run a live music feed from the iTunes player and just listen to any
free channels for hours on end, it would certainly run my internet into overage - and it may
prompt the service provider to limit my bandwidth as part of a penalty in addition to adding
extra charges per GB over a set limit, that I'm over. There is that ceiling...
However, if you have a supposedly "unlimited" account, there may also be ways a provider
could go further to make it harder for you to keep using it as 'unlimited' since their side may
see those as potential money-losers. To have streaming video over internet would really be
a quick way to use any limits and likely garner significant penalties.
The wording in your home or cellular services is probably subject to change so be sure
to read your agreements and see how anything new may affect you or what you pay...
Good luck & happy computing! -

It has always been possible to re-download 3rd party apps without having to pay again for purchased apps and recently the same is now available for iBooks and music purchased from the iTunes store, but not for movies and tv shows.

This is one of the reasons why including your iTunes library with your computer's backup along with all other important data is a good idea. -
My Ipad is not responding. It has the small apple in the middle of the screen with the little "thinking" flower symbol surrounding it, and does not respond to restoring. We received an error message when trying to restore from itunes.

I just updated my iphone to ios7 and I keep getting stuck at the 'Set up your iPhone' screen. I click 'Restore from Itunes Backup', but it only ends up restarting after restoring and fails to get past the 'Set up your iPhone' screen. Any ideas?
Normally, I would suggest restoring the iPad and uninstall and reinstall iTunes but you have done both of those things - more times than you ever imagined!
Have you thought about turning auto syncing off?
Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
If you do this you can backup the iPad right away before it syncs. You may want to go into all of the iTunes tabs and just make sure that all of the current content on the iPad is selected to sync before you actually do sync.
This doesn't solve the problem, but it would prevent the automatic sync and erasing content. Hopefully, in the next few days- when iOS 5 is released - you will also be relieved of this weird iPad behavior - since the iOS devices are supposed to become PC free.
BTW - and this is no excuse for what you are experiencing, but I have found that some of the game apps that I had on my iPad turned out to be quite troublesome and after I removed them, my problems went away. I know that is almost sacrilege with regard to the Angry Birds addiction .... But I'm just saying ... -
I have an ipad 2 on ops 4.3 and have just updated to 7.1 via itunes. I backed up first and have synced repeatedly but keep getting a message on my ipdad screen that the ipad is not set up - I chose the set up option restore from itunes back up
To free up hard drive space the best bet is to move data files that you don't need access to all the time. Likely candidates are music, video, and photos. Things like word processing and spreadsheet files can also be moved but they tend not to be very large and so don't free up much space. The problem with moving the above mentioned files is that iTunes and iPhoto need to know where the files are stored.
Here's an article explaining how to move the iTunes folder. You can move the iPhoto library using the Finder but there is a slight complication. Start iPhoto, open the Preferences and click on the Advanced tab. The first option is "Copy items to the iPhoto Library". If this option is checked, copy the iPhoto library to your external folder (drag it from the Pictures folder to your external drive) and then delete it from your Picture folder. If this option is not checked, it is a bit more complicated and we'll need to talk a bit. -
All- I get this message ("iPhone can not make or receive calls. Restore from iTunes" (happend once while on airplain mode and now once while in wifi only area, out of cell range)). iPhone 4. Newest OS. Never happened with old OS! Cycling phone on/off does not help. Ignoring message causes phone to cycle off then on. After first time this happened, I restored. Six days later...same problem! Clearly a new fix is necessary. Suggestions?
I have not tried that...I will look up the process so that I can do it correctly (and still transfer all of my files, contacts, etc). Any suggestions? What is the advantage of restoring as a new device..is this more akin to a complete wipe of a hard drive?

Hi I have an iPhone 4 and suddenly it stopped working. Could here notifications and nothing on the diisplay. Wake up button on top is not working. so unable to restart the phone. Wanted to try restore from iTunes but Find my iPhone (iCloud) is on. How to recover or restart my Phone
Follow these steps to log into your iCloud account on your computer and deactivate "Find my iPhone" on your device:
Remove an iOS device or Mac on which you can’t turn off Find My iPhone
If you can’t turn off Find My iPhone on the device, turn off the device so it goes offline, then remove it from Find My iPhone on iCloud.com.
Note: You can also remove your iOS device by first erasing it—just follow the instructions below for removing an iOS device you don’t have. You can later restore the device from an iCloud or iTunes backup.
Turn off the device you want to remove.
Sign in to icloud.com/#find on another computer with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud). If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.
Click All Devices, select the offline device, then click Remove from Account. If you don’t see Remove from Account, click All Devices again, then click the Delete button next to the device. If the device comes online again, it will reappear in Find My iPhone. If your device reappears, turn off Find My iPhone on the device (follow the instructions above for removing a device by turning off Find My iPhone), or if it’s an iOS device and you no longer have it, follow the instructions below for removing an iOS device you no longer have.
Remove an iOS device you no longer have
If you no longer have the iOS device because you gave it away or sold it, you need to remotely erase it before you can remove it.
Sign in to icloud.com/#find with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud). If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.
Click All Devices, then select the device.
Click Erase [device], then enter your Apple ID password. Because the device isn’t lost, don’t enter a phone number or message.
Note: If you’re trying to erase a family member’s device, that person will need to enter his or her Apple ID password on this device. If the device is offline, the remote erase begins the next time it’s online. You’ll receive an email when the device is erased.
When the device is erased, click Remove from Account.All your content is erased, and someone else can now activate the device.

i bought a brand new 5th gen ipod touch. im trying to restore from itunes backup. then it says connect to itunes but my hp laptop is not syncing it. when i plug it in it does nothing but say connect to itunes... how do i fix this?
Hey jtom234412,
Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, it sounds like your device is not detected in iTunes for Windows. The following resource may help resolve this issue:

Furthermore, if your device is in recovery mode (displaying an iTunes symbol, with a plug), see the relevant information under Step 5.
Thanks,

i have a white iphone 4 that says it was approved but restoring from itunes does not show (congrats unlocked message)

Email from AT&T says the IMEI number was approved for unlocking

When restored. But the 4 does not. AT&T insists its unlocked but they are only going off
Of the request and IMEI number. Is there a way from the phone i can verify it was unlocked?
If AT&T e-mail says it is unlocked, then believe it is so. Insert non-AT&T SIM inside and after backing up restore in iTunes again. Unlock gets attached.
You can check the status of the unlock request on AT&T web-site. -
Have a classic 5th gen. have restored, relaoded itunes, gone through the troubleshooting tips and I still can't sync my latest 3 albums to my ipod. It will sync all but those. Also, when go through ipod trblshoot and select check for sync, says can't see my ipod. pls help
Thanks for the reply. The Itunes trouble shooting in Itunes help. I don't get an error message, it just states can't see ipod like if it wasn't plugged in. I do get an error message on a few of the songs when sync that say error 50, and state that they can't be loaded to ipod. The weird thing is that I can load all of my libary except the latest 3 albums. They are in my libary but they won't load. I'm not sure but it seems like it started when the cloud came about from amazon which is where I buy most of my music.

Updating to IOS7 caused all files on iPad to disappear and restore from iTunes does not work
I recently updated my iPad to IOS7. Before doing so, I backed up the contents to iTunes. After completing the update, I found that the iPad has been completely cleared out of all files. .It is now completely empty and prompts for a new setup when I turn it on.
So naturally I tried to restore from iTunes. However, although the restore process appears to have completed, nothing changes at all on the iPad. It remains a blank slate.
Can someone please advise how I can recover my files? There are a lot of important photos I want to preserve. Perhaps I am missing some obvious step.

If I choose "restore from iTunes backup" to move everything from old iphone to a new one, will I still be able to use the old phone for music and apps? Can the old phone be docked up to that same computer every now and then? Or will the new and old phone overwrite each other in some way? In other words, are the two phones treated as different devices when the "restore" option is used to set up the new phone? Thanks in advance.
Yes, you can use the old iPhone as an iPod touch.
