Got a new pc with Win7,and want to sync iTunes,but getting the different pc warning.I have a copies of music

Sorry for the poor grammar and spelling, but was trying to get in my question in the limited character window.. The how to link that most folks get sent to http://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991 , say's I need to create at least 1 contact in Outlook or Windows address book, which I don't have..How can I do this without the hassle that I've gone throught before of having to restore from iCloud and fixing all my settings, contacts, etc. Everything is backed up iCloud and I got all the data from my Apps and copied it into new folders..I've already 'synced' my phone with iTunes, but only the Apps..Once I go to manally change music, tones,or pics I get the big warning erase and replace message..I have copies of all my music, tones, and pics..I know I'm repeating myself, but my question is the same, but just not able to create any contacts to make iTunes happy, and don't see the option of making a backup copy of what's on the phone..I've already backed it up to iTunes..I have an iPhone5 and just downloaded the latest version of iTunes..Still backing up to iCloud, but want both options. What should I do? Thanks....jc

Sorry for bmping as I don't usualy do this, but after 3 days and no asnwers I'm surprised no one has responded...I'm sure someone has had the same problem and or one of the many Apple or Microsoft Engineers know or at least have some possible solutions...Otherwise I'm stuck and have to reset the whole library which takes quite a lot of time..Any ideas please fellow users...Thanks..

I have a new mac and want to sync my phone to the iTunes on it, but it won't let me manually manage without deleting all music on the phone already from another iTunes. is there a way around this?

I have a new mac and want to sync my phone to the iTunes on it, but it won't let me manually manage without deleting all music on the phone already from another iTunes. is there a way around this?

The best solution:
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
An alternative which is really not what you should have to do, or the way it is intended to be done, if you properly manage your computer and backups:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
Sync transfer is one way, computer to device, matching the device content to the content on the computer (except purchased content as mentioned above). For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will probably have to use third party commercial software unless you have an older model iPod. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

Do not regard your i-device as a reliable unique storage for your media. It is not a backup device and everything is structured around you maintaining your media on a computer which is itself backed up.

i have a new computer and want to sync my phone to the new but dont want to lose the information. how do i transfer. i was told there was a way but not sure how

for the purchased items from the iTunes Store, you could use transfer of purchases
for the photos, other music/movie not from itunes, you'll be needing a third party application
for contacts, calendars , photos from camera roll : you could just directly transfer it from your phone to the computer.

I use iPhoto and want to know how to get the 'key photo' i select on my McBook Pro to be the same one that gets used on my iPhone 5s when i sync. i also want the events to appear on the iPhone in the same order i have them on my macbook. any ideas there too?

No, your Yahoo account is not in iCloud (which only handles iCloud mail), it is in Yahoo, and the Yahoo mail account is on your iPad.
But the MacBook Pro will have none of it! I write this question now as I fear that I will be totally demented very soon and unable to formulate my thoughts clearly!
Get the correct settings for your account from Yahoo and set it up manually.
By the way, I also find the "password" issue problematical. It seems Apple want my Apple password rather than my eMail password. All very confusing.
That would depend on what you are trying to do.

Sounds like the Activation Lock is still set to the previous owner. If you are unable to get that Apple ID and password that iPhone is totally useless to you.
Take it back to the shop and demand your money back because they sold it to under false pretenses.

I am new to this program and want to know how to blur the edges of a pic

i am new to the program and want to know how to blur the edges of a pic?

Another way...
Use the Rectangular Marquee tool to draw out the edge to be blurred. Feather the selection. Here I feathered 50 px (note that feathering makes the borders of the selection appear rounded).
Invert the selection so that the edge is now selected, and apply a Gaussian Blur:
The reason for feathering is to soften the edge of the blur. The amount of feathering and amount of the Gaussian Blur is simply trial-and-error.

My wife and I both sync our iphones on the same computer. I have lost my notes and they have appeared on my wife's iphone. How do I fix this?

My wife and I both sync our iphones on the same imac.I have lost my notes> they have then shown up on her iphone. How do I fix this please ?

You can sync as many iphones/ipods/ipads as you like to one computer/library.
Open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want, sync
Do the same with the other iphone.

Got a new Ipod(With video) AND NEEDS TONS OF HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I NEED HELPOk, so I just got a new Video ipod for my birthday(recently had a mini) and I downloaded about 10 videos. I was so excited but when I downloaded the videos it said
"There was an error downloading your purchased music.The disk could not be read from or written to.Use the check for Purchases command in Advanced menu to try again later"
And so I did and it said the same thing. I have been trying for 5 days now. We called the apple store and one of the "geniuses" said to check and make sure The music store is updated. And yes it was. So he said if it was then to email them at apple.com and so I came here. Then I went to support thinking it would be there and there was no way of contacting them. SO I came to you guys. I really can't bring it down until this weekend, which I was going to go on a trip and listen to it the whole week, SO I would REALLYappreciate your help, like REALLY lol thanks so much.
Help is appreciated So much, so thanks again ~Danielle
HELP

By any chance are you trying to download from the store to a network drive? If you are, try downloading to the "C" drive, then move your purchase over.
EDIT:
I think I may be misreading your problem & want to clarify what is going on. Is this error occurring when your trying to download the purchase to the computer or when your trying to sync the purchase to iPod. If it's happening going to the computer, then the issue could be the network drive.

I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

After downloading the5.0 exe file, i don't get the page(browser) as shown in it's ad. I mean: that red firefox multitab tab button on top left, & other things (shown with tabs & explained in ad feature). I get the old page(browser) i have.

I clicked the blue link: "Upgrade Firefox to the latest version", below the firefox box. In the next page, i clicked a blue link: "Take a tour". In the 3rd page it shows how thenew browser will look like, with the new features.. explainedby tabs and all. I then clicked the download button.
Next, i don't get that new-view browser. How is it? i get the old one i have already.
I also downloaded Gujarati language tool-something.
I then tried 4 times: total 5 times same download from red download buttons on different pages....
Yet no result. I get the same old browser, with no new features.
Also, I rebooted my pc. But to no effect.
Help pl
Thanx

It looks that the update wasn't successful because your "More system details" list still shows a Firefox 3.6.18 version.
If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
