Having Trouble getting data from iphone 4 to itunes so I can ultimately transfer to 4s.

Original itunes machine is dead, so I deauthorized all machines and authorized current machine and couldn't sync items from phone to machine. Apple then told me to uninstall itunes and reinstall, have done so but still can't get it to sync all items from phone to itunes library. (It only synced purchased songs, none of the apps)  I want all the data on my phone to go to my computer, not what is on computer but can't get there. Any suggestions?

Media sync (music videos, etc.) is 1 way. Computer to iPhone. Items purchased on the phone can be transferred using File>Transfer Purchases in iTunes. If you have music on the phone that was synced to it from another computer but not purchased from iTunes, you will either have to use the backup of your old computer to get it on the new one, as suggested above, or invest in 3rd party software to extract it from the phone.

    I am having trouble getting mail from the shaw server that my new iMac is connected to. I have to reboot the system to get Outlook for Mac to access the system and obtain new messages. Any ideas? Its at the point where I have started using the PC again as its less trouble.......

    In Firefox 3.6.4 and later the default connection settings have been changed to "Use the system proxy settings".<br />
    See "Firefox connection settings" in [[Server not found]]
    You can find the connection settings in "Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection"<br />
    If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select No Proxy

    Turn off iMessage on the old iPhone.
    Restore the iPhone as new.
    Have the other iPhone users delete the current message thread, and start a new messae to you.
    Have the other iPhone users delete your contact, then re-add it.
    Go to ww.icloud.com and remove the device from your Find My iPhone.
    Go to appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and/or password.
    Contact Apple Support at getsupport.apple.com for further assistance if these steps don't work.
    Wait about 30 days for the iMessage server to self-correct the issue.

  • Deleted data from iphone thanks to itunes synchronisation

    Yesterday, without realising it, I synchronised my iphone (thanks to this automatic synchronisation service offered as a default on itunes, grrrr) to my husband's itunes account which had NOTHING on it. I have now lost everything on my iphone, including apps, photos, purchased itunes, saved contacts, everything. The setting on the iphone has gone back to basics. Can someone please tell me if there is a way for me to recover everything that itunes deleted from my iphone? I have searched through itunes and my iphone, and there is nothing that specifically answers the issue of accidentally deleting data from iphone due to itunes synchronisation. HELP!

    In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred via the iTunes sync/transfer process from a single computer only.
    Even with iTunes set to sync an iPod or iPhone automatically when connected, when connecting an iPhone to iTunes on a different computer than is used to sync with the iPhone, a warning message is provided along with a warning message that all iTunes content on the iPhone will be erased first, which must be approved.
    Contacts on your iPhone are not touched unless you select to sync contacts with a supported address book application on the computer which is selected under the Info tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, which is not selected automatically.
    3rd party apps can be downloaded again with iTunes on a computer that is logged in with your iTunes account or with your iPhone and you won't be charged again for a purchased app as long as you use the same iTunes account to download the app that was used to purchase the app originally, but not the same with music, which can be downloaded once.

  • I am having trouble with syncing my iPhone to another computer and I can't change the settings on the other computer to 'manually manage.....' because the computer is not working!

    I am having trouble with syncing my iPhone to another computer because the computer that my iPhone is currently synced with is not working

    You can sync/manually mange iphone with one and only one computer.  If you sync/manually mange to anther, then it will erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.

  • Sync Data from iPhone back to iTune

    Because of my computer being formatted, all data has been lost. What I want to do is sync back all my data in iPhone to new iTune without changing any data in my iPhone. What should I do?

    First things first, always do a backup. You can not copy from any iDevice back to your PC, you can thank apple for this and DRM. Google copy from ipod to computer. There is 3rd party software that will do this, some free and some paid.

  • How do I upload my music from my iPhone 4S to iTunes so I can then transfer to an iPod?

    Hi there
    I hope the above makes sense. I have over a 1000 songs on my iphone but 400 in iTunes. I want to upload my iPhone library to iTunes so i can then sync with a new iPod?
    Please someone help...
    Thanks

    As I said, you can transfer itunes purchases.
    As everything else came from your computer in the first place, then it should still be there, and should be included in your regular backup copy of your computer.

  • Trouble transferring data from iPhone 4 to Mac OS X 10.5.8

    I borrowed my sister's old iphone 4 whilst i was travelling overseas. Her accounts were still on the phone and it was closed to her carrier so i had to unlock it and change settings around so that i could use my accounts.
    Whilst unlocking it i backed up her phone on my iTunes located on my Mac OS X 10.5.8. Now that i am back from travelling, i want to transfer my 4hour voice memo, purchased songs on iTunes and iBook, any purchased apps and SMS/imessages to my laptop. I am giving the iphone back to her so if there i any way i can transfer the data without having to buy an application that would be helpful.
    Sidenote: I'm not too familiar with iCloud but it is set to her account on the phone. If i delete her account and use mine what will get deleted?
    After i get the data i want off the phone. How do i transfer the applications which i've backed up on my iTunes on my Mac back to the phone so i can give it back to her as received?
    Any help would be much appreciated. I erased all of the music on my brothers itunes account when i transferred songs to my ipod so a little anxious about using iTunes.

    It was locked to Vodafone Australia and i had to unlock it so that i could put an international sim card in it. Because i was running out of time, i went in-store and asked the Vodafone staff and they said i can unlock it using iTunes. I had to google the instructins however as i wasn't sure of what buttons to press. So i went home and went through the whole process only to have it fail at the very end. I went in-store and the staff showed me how to restore files back to my sister's phone and was finally unlocked.

  • Help?! I use multiple Apple ID's to download purchases to my phone and am having trouble getting purchases from them all?!

    Hi, 
    This situation has been causing me much stress and frustration for about a week now and I really hope I can get help here. 
    I got my first iPhone 5 this past June and synced purchases from my mom's computer to my phone and was able to use my own Apple ID to purchase music to my phone just fine. Everything was fine with having purchases from my Apple ID and from my mom's Apple ID on my phone until I recently got my new HP 2000 laptop with Windows 8 and set up an iTunes library under my own Apple ID. Before setting up iTunes on my computer, I cleared out my music library (containing songs purchased from my Apple ID and my mom's) due to an issue with my playlists. I re-synced my phone with my music on my computer and ran into a problem: I had to delete apps and tones bought with my mom's Apple ID. Not caring or thinking I let it delete the few apps and tones I synced from my mom's library. I got all my songs back on my phone and fixed the playlist issue. Everything was good, but I have songs and other purchases on my mom's account that I want on my phone. I read that I can't sync with two libraries though, which is a bummer. So, I decided to just sign in to her account on my phone and re-download purchases right from there. Well, when I tried I got a warning that stated, "this device is already associated with another Apple ID" and it tells me if I want to transfer purchases from her account, I'll have to wait 90 days if I want to re-download purchases from other Apple ID's? What does that mean? Is there away around all this so I can get purchases from other accounts on my phone without running into that warning? Will I be able to get the purchases to my phone at all? 
    I apologize if this is confusing, I'd be more than happy to provide any further clarification to those willing to help me. All replies are very much appreciated. Thank you to those who can help in advance!

    Have you tried signing out and then back in?

  • Having trouble moving songs from iPhone Music section to a playlist in 10.6.1

    I'm able to import songs from my computer to my iTunes just fine.  However, it seems that with version 10.6 of iTunes I can't drag a song from my iTunes Music section on my iPhone 4S to a playlist.  The song will highlight in the Music section but drag & drop are not working.  I don't recall having this problem in version 10.5 of iTunes.  Anybody else have this issue?  Is there a fix or do I have to wait for version 10.7?  Thanks for the assistance.

    Thank you for that. It all looks like it should work except for step 12:
    From the Advanced menu, choose Consolidate Library. A message appears that says: "Consolidating your library will copy all of your music into the iTunes Music folder. This cannot be undone."
    There is no button that says consolidate library. Not even on the example picture they have.

  • I am having trouble getting audio from a DVD.

    Initially when I insert the DVD i get audio playing.  Then, I pair my bluetooth headphones, they say they are connected but I get no audio from the laptop speakers or from my headphones.  I disconnect the headphones and still get no audio from the laptop.  I have ejected the DVD and tried to start over and still have no audio.  I would like to have audio from my bluetooth headphones because this is a workout DVD.  Oh, I can get audio from itunes when my headphones are connected.
    Thanks in advance!

    There are differences among MacBook models in that most cannot use audio over HDMI, and according to at least one answered reply here in ASC discussions, you'd need another cable or adapter for audio if you don't have a 2010 MacBook...

  • Having trouble "getting" video from a DVD.

    When trying to "get" video from a DVD I have recorded using a Magnavox DVD recorder, Premier Elements 4 will only import a portion of the video. The entire recorded video is viewable if I watch the DVD on a player so I know it is all there. This is only happening with video recorded on this one particular recorder. It is also only happening with Premier Elements 4. We also use Final Cut Pro and it works fine with DVD's from this recorder.
    If anyone has any answers please let me know.
    Thanks!!!!

    VCR/DVD burners can produce some mixed quality video files, Richard, particularly if they're recorded to a low quality disc (like Memorex).
    The wisest move would be to convert those DVD files to DV-AVIs using a program like MPEG Streamclip or VirtualDubMOD (both free), per the FAQs at the top of this forum.
    http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3bc4800e
    DV-AVIs are the ideal format for editing on a PC.
