First time iPhone user. How to sync?

Finally gave in to purchasing an iPhone. So my first order of business is syncing stuff that I've downloaded to my phone. I've had my friend download some contents to it prior to this. So here are my questions:
1. Will syncing erase the contents of my phone?
2. Can I sync just certain type of contents that I want and not everything that's loaded on my iTunes?

  • There is a problem in updating iphoto and iMovie, read a response here from a certain Dahveed if I'm not wrong to try this, however I'm a first time mac user, how do you delete this ... /Mac HD/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/adoption.plist

    It says 'To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it.'
    However I only have one account. I've tried to sign out and in several times. But it doesn't work. I do remember changing my password recently. Secondly I'd like to add that I got this macbook air 3 days ago. I'm a first time mac user. It had three updates initially. Mountain lion 10.8.2, iphoto and the imovie. I updated the mountain lion, thinking I'd get the iphoto and imovie done later. However now this problem has come up. Thanks for responding. Hoping to hear from you soon again regarding this.

  • Im a long time Android user switching to the iphone 6 plus. What is the experience of the first time iphone users switching from Android

    I had the Gal note 3 then was given a SGS5 for a replace because the Note3 had issues.
    Couldnt stand the screen size so I had to go back to the larger screen.
    I decided to go with the iphone 6 plus.
    So for those who have made the switch from android to apple for the first time what
    has you experience been like.
    I am an ipad user but want to know peoples opinions that have switched phones.
    One thing I dislike and I know you can change it; it seems like google want to
    force you to use chrome which I cannot stand

        Hi zharvey85,
    I truly apologize for your experience at the store. However, we provided the pre order as a way to avoid needing to go to store as inventory availability are subject to change without notice. The pre order secures the device and the other email was for the shipping information. Perhaps you can re order the device online to get the ball rolling for you to get your iPhone 6 plus as desired as opposed to going to the store of which inventory can change depending on the availability.
    Thank you!

  • Question from a first time iphone user

    I am picking up my very first iphone tomorrow. My question is this: I have tons of mp3's that were not purchased through itunes. Is there a way to put these mp3s on my iphone so I dont have to rebuy them from the itunes store?
    Thanks.

    Import them into iTunes and you can sync them onto your phone directly from there. No need to purchase again. I have done this with loads of CDs.

  • First time iPhone user. Please help.

    I just got my new iPhone 6. It was already charged when I opened it.
    Do I have to charge it again or let it run out first?

    You should not let your device run out of battery on purpose. Charge it whenever it is convenient. You cannot overcharge it. But letting it drop below 15% on a regular basis will shorten the battery life. If it is charged, then go ahead and use it.
    Cheers,

  • I have the iPhone 5c, and earlier the black part of the screen lifted up from the white part, I was able to snap it back down. But is that normal? I'm a first time iPhone user so I'm freaking out!

    I would really appreciate accurate answers to my questions!

    No, that is not normal.
    The iPhone is still under warranty.  Take it to an Apple Store or Authorized Apple Service Center and let them look at it and advise you about the next steps.

  • Good book for first-time computer user?

    I need to teach someone who has never used a computer how to use one. I have used computers all my life, so I don't know where to start. I thought I'd get a book. If it were Windows, I'm sure I could find a hundred books for a newbie. On a Mac, though, I'm not sure what exists out there, because most new Mac users have used Windows, whereas most new Windows users have never used a computer.
    Does anyone know of a good book that teaches a first-time computer user how to use a Mac?

    The David Pogue books are excellent but first, have you seen Mac 101?

  • I'am a first time mac user, can any explain to me how to transfer file i.e. iTunes ,pictures, other files.

    I'am a first time mac user, can any explain to me how to transfer file i.e. iTunes ,pictures, other files.

    Select a file you want to transfer and drag it to the desired destination.
    If you need help with the basics of OS X you can:
    Select Mac Help (or Help Center) from the Finder's Help menu and enter a search keyword. For your question you might search for "copy," "file copy," or "drag and drop" for example.
    See Apple - Support - Mac 101
    Visit the Apple website where you will find additional information and tutorials on how to use OS X.

  • I have just opened my brand new Macbook Pro and I'm a first time mac user. I have tried to download flash to enable me to watch you tube clips, but on trying to download it, it says I need to close Safari but after doing so, it still won't respond.

    Actually you need to quit Safari which is different from closing.  With Safari open go the menu bar for Safari/Quit Safari.

  • HT1386 i lost all my contacts in my iphone 4  how to sync conacts

    i lost all my contacts in my iphone 4  how to sync conacts through itunes

    Two way:
    - If they are in the calender ap/program on the computer just sync them from there back to the iPod.
    - Restore the iPod from backup. Make sure that autosyncing is off otherwise, when you connect the iPod to the computer iTunes will backup the iPod without the contacts.   To turnoff go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices anbd change the box that says: Prevent iPods....syncing".

  • First time apple user

    First time apple user here, switching from using a PC laptop. I read that the 2015 Macbook Pro 13" got an upgrade to the track pad and using the broadwell chipset. Will the Macbook pro 15" get this as well? I've been reading online, and haven't seen much news about the 15" model, only the 13". Any updates on when the 2015 Macbook pro 15" will come out?
    Thanks
