Garageband App to Garageband Computer, clunky process

So, there is no clear way to import files into Garageband on my computer, from my iPhone Garageband App. I am using a new Macbook Air. The only way I have found is to email the file, but the file is not able to be imported.
The file comes to your inbox a .m4a and it didnt work, I changed it to a .mp4, didnt work, and I tried changing it to .mp3, and that didnt work.
So, as a mobile mucisian, it makes it almost pointless to use the Garageband App for iPhone if the files are not even usable off of your iPhone.

you have to tell GB on the iPhone to export the GB PROJECT, rather than an audio file. here are instructions for doing so on the iPad, they should be very similar to the version on the iPhone:

HT1386 When I connect my iPod to my computer and try to sync Apps from my computer to the iPod, a warning comes up saying that I will lose all my existing Apps. Please help

I have got a new computer and i can no longer do a full sync. Apple always tells me I will lose all my exisiting Apps if I do a new sync. I prefer to purchase Apps on my computer over my iPod because of the smaller iPod. The new computer is recognized by Apple as an allowable new PC.
But this Sync warning is a pain. Plus, when i view my iPod's App icons on my copmputer, I can no longer drag and move them. I have the latest version of iTunes installed. Thank you for your help

Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iPod. Only if you back up your device manually before syncing, you can restore it from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Do this:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your iPod without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your iPod for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPod for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

As for your second problem, see if restrictions for app installation and deleting apps are active in Settings/General/Restrictions. If yes, allow to install and delete app again.

Putting Apps into new computer and new Itunes, Aithorization dosnt work.

I just got a new mac and I wanted to snyc my ipod. Using an external hardrive i have already put all my music on but i didnt put on my apps because there wasnt enough space. Now when I snyc my touch it comes up with the sign "would you like to transfer purchased items into itunes" of course I click yes, then it goes on. At this point I should mention I have already authorized my computer for music and apps. When the snycing starts it suddenly stops and says that it cant import the apps because my computer is not authorized, even though it is. to make it worse, the first time i snyced after authorizing the computer 6 apps made it but the rest said my com needed to be authorized. I dont wanna have to lose all those apps (56 in total alot i know) so CAN ANYONE HELP!!!!!!

This is the process I would have recommended:
Backup your library using this User Tip.
Deauthorise the old computer if you won't be using it for iTunes.
Restore the library into the music folder on the new computer.
Install iTunes and sign in to your account.
For the "restore" process you can either just copy the backed up iTunes folder into the new computer or install and set up SyncToy to manage the transfer. If you install iTunes before restoring the library then you should delete/rename the existing empty iTunes library in your profile's music folder first.
Reconnecting an old iOS device backup set into a new iTunes installation is actually quite tricky, but provided the library has been properly conserved it is an unnecessary step. A library transferred as outlined above will be the same library the device was previously synced with, albeit on a different computer/operating system, and there should be no problem syncing media or apps. Info content such as calendar and contacts may need a little more care to make sure the same applications have as used previously have been installed and their data restored to them.

How can i transfer apps from one computer to another?

My i-pod touch was on one computer and i would like to change my apps from that computer to another.

The simplest solution is to copy the iTunes folder from the other computer to the new one. This will transfer everything including music, apps, etc. The folder is /Home/Music/iTunes/.

You don't mention which operating system you have so it's difficult to provide an answer since the mac and Windows stores the files differently.
The other thing you can do is just re-download the apps from the iTunes Store. Just login to the iTunes Store on the other computer using the same Apple ID. On the right-hand side of the iTunes Store page you will see a 'Purchased' link. Clicking on that will take you to a page that will list your past purchases which you can re-download to the new computer.

My iPhone 4 will not sync my new voice memos from the "Voice Memos" app to my computer. This is frustrating, should not be so hard, can someone please help. I use PC with windows 7 with iPhone version 6.1.3 and iTunes most recent. Thanks.

In the Music tab of iTunes, do you have 'Include Voice Memos' checked?

When i go to sync my apps with my computer it tells me ''are you sure you want to sync apps ? all exsisting apps and there data on (iphone) will be replaced with the apps on this itunes library'' does this mean all my data will be lost if i continue ?

Regarding your broken, previously authorized computer, here's how that works:
You would authorize your new computer -- maybe you've done that already. Then you will have two computers authorized. Apple allows you to have up to five computers authorized at any time. If you get to five, you can then go to your account details in iTunes and remove all authorizations.
Bear in mind this is not saying you can synch to more tham one library. Razmee209 and gdgmacguy's comments above are correct. But if Apple only allowed you to authorize one computer at a time, then having a broken computer would mean you could no longer use your Apple ID with iTunes.

Is there anyway to take a downloaded app from one computer and put it on another without rebuying it. I have a macbook that I bought the new iMovie and iPhoto on, but I would rather it be on my iMac. So is there anyway I can change it?

So is there anyway I can change it? I thought that if I bought it the apps on my macbook, they would be avaliable on my imac like the mobile devices operate. The macbook has 10.6.8 cause its a older model and I think lion would slow it down. Any help??

Just redownload it on the other computer by logging into the App Store with the same Apple ID you used to purchase it.

Can I download Apps to my computer and then transfer to an IPOD touch 4th generation?

I'm thinking about purchasing an IPOD Touch, 8 GB 4th Generation. I have Internet acces via Time Warner Roadrunner and my Dell Computer has Windows 7 Professional as an operating system. My questions are:
(1) If I purchase this IPOD will I be able to download Apps without any problems?
(2) Is there a way to transfer these Apps from my computer to the IPOD?
(3) Are there any good Apps for keeping track of foods (calorie content), weight, etc.?
(4) Can I check my hotmail account for emails in my car or anywhere I may be?
(5) I know many Apps are free; however, what are the prices for different music?
(6) What kind of accessories would anyone recommend for this IPOD?
Any other information that might be helpful to me would be appreciated?

(1) If I purchase this IPOD will I be able to download Apps without any problems?
Yes, AS LONG AS you are connected to a working Wi-Fi network that is connected to the Internet.
(2) Is there a way to transfer these Apps from my computer to the IPOD?
Yes. See here: Syncing and arranging apps from the App Store
(3) Are there any good Apps for keeping track of foods (calorie content), weight, etc.?
Yes. Search the App Store or do some research via Google regarding google calorie tracking apps.
(4) Can I check my hotmail account for emails in my car or anywhere I may be?
You can only check for email when your iPod is connected to a working Wi-Fi network. It does not use a cellular data connection like an iPhone or 3G/4G iPad can.
(5) I know many Apps are free; however, what are the prices for different music?
Songs prices vary. Any where from free to a couple of dollars. You'll have to just look around the Music Store to get a better feel for the pricing model.
(6) What kind of accessories would anyone recommend for this IPOD?
Definitely a case of some sort that will protect it from scratches or further damage if dropped. That's about all I will offer though.
Any other information that might be helpful to me would be appreciated?
8 GB isn't that much storage space especially after you consider that some of that is taken up by iOS and take into consideration how storage capacity is reported. You'll only have about roughly 6.5 GB of free space to use. So if possible, I would purchase the version with the next highest capacity at 32 GB.

How to create backup file on itunes for ipod touch 4g game apps data? Is there a way to do it? I want to try an app on my friend's computer, but you can't add apps on another computer without having your own ipod's data being deleted. Thx for any help!

I want to know how to create a backup file (because I'm pretty new with itunes, and it's hard to use it for me still), how to store my app data/media/videos, etc. And how I can retrieve them back when I'm done with the app I tried on my friend's computer.
If anyone can help, it'd be great! Thank you so much!

Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac. You should be able to set a password for it. Save it. Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer, I suppose, back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity. As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
This handy article from Apple explains how
How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine and go for it. You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups of your stuff.

I cant seem to add my new apps from my computer to my ipod!!!

Help!!
I bought a few new apps on my computer and want to put them on my ipod touch. They didnt download when I synched...and although im on manual, it wont let me click on them to drop them into my ipod??
any ideas? I dont want to erase all my apps and their data!
thanks!

Are the apps compatible with the iOS version on your iPod? Is the iPod signed into the same itunes account that purchased the apps? Have you tried downloading the apps direction on your iPod using the App Store app? If the iPod is signed into the same iTunes account that originally purchased the apps you will not be charged again. See:

I accientally synced my iPhone to 2 different computers. Now my older apps are on one computer and new apps are on another. Every time I try to sync all apps on one computer it takes the other apps of and just syncs what is on that computer - Help please

I cannot for the life of me figure this out.

What you need to do is connect your phone to iTunes but do not click sync. Go to File at the top and click transfer purchases from phone, that'll put all your apps into iTunes. When it's done transferring, locate your phone on the sidebar and click it. Then find the apps option above the picture of your iphone, you can select which apps you want or don't want on your phone. After selecting your apps then you can sync. Once you do this you should never have your problem anymore.

If there was no backup, where would you recover the photos from. Sorry but those pictures are gone.

This is one of the most basic of functions of the iPhone. This is a good time for you to read the User Guide. All the instructions on how to operate yor phone are included. I suggest you read through it.
