HELP! How to keep my iphone sync to my pc after format?

I'm planning to format my pc! I know that my iphone can sync with only one itunes library! so how can i safely format my pc and keep my iphone synchronized with it, without fear of losing my songs or apps? I'm using windows 7

Make a backup of everything you want to keep (your iTunes Library in particular) then restore from the back-up after formatting.
However, do you really need to go to all the effort of re-formatting? Perhaps some basic PC maintenance would save you the hassle and give you the same result?

How to keep playlists in sync between two computers?

I have a MacBook Pro and a regular desktop Windows 7, and I have all of my music on both of them. However, I constantly keep adding new songs to different playlists all the time, and this makes it hard to keep everything in sync with both computers and my iPod because I usually sync from my Mac.
Right now I export the updated playlists on one of the computers and import it on the other, but it's quite the hassle just to keep some playlists in sync. I tried using home sharing, but it just keeps downloading duplicates everytime I try to import, I would've thought it was smarter by just adding the new songs but appearently it isn't.
So, anyways, is there any easy way for me to automatically keep playlists in sync between two computers?

I am indeed subscribed to iTunes Match. Are you saying that with Match, it will sync my playlists? I will have to check this when I get home. That would really be a nice surprise!
I sync my iPod to iTunes on my Windows 7 box, but use iTunes on my Mac for synching my iPhone 6 and iPad 2. Normally, I'd be modifying a playlist on the Win 7 box, adding or rearranging songs. However, occasionally, I might download a song to the iPhone while out and about. Then, when I'm back at the Mac, I'd do a sync and add that new song to one of the playlists. Should Match then be keeping the playlists on the two machines in sync?
As for the library replication, I had to do that when I first signed up for Match. I was WAY over the 25k song limit, so I made a copy of the library, and in that copy deleted enough songs to get me under the limit. Also discovered scripting and did some really neat things with that tool. Still have the option when I start iTunes to use the old library, just in case there's something there I need to copy to the smaller lib.

I want to get rid of my laptop and use an iPad. Will I be able to keep my iPhone synced and updated with the iPad?

I want to get rid of my laptop and use an iPad2. Will I be able to keep my iPhone updated and synced by using the iPad2 like I currently do with the laptop?

No. You must use a computer to sync and update both devices via iTunes on the computer. The iPad2 cannot replace the laptop for syncing purposes.

How To Keep Your iPhone Safe At The Gym

I have a problem with the Otterbox Defender (or more like a worry).
Here is my worry. I like to use my iPhone at the gym. I also have an iPod touch. I have used the iPod touch at the gym, with no problems (it has a very thin rubber protector).
I prefer the iPhone because my gym lacks wi-fi, so I can't get pandora. Here is the problem. The Otterbox is not too bulky, but more bulky than the iPod touch.
So when I do a couple of exercises, with the iPhone in my pocket, I get nervous.
For instance, say I do a dumbell exercise (curls), well the DB comes close to contact with the front/side of my leg where the iPhone is in the pocket.
If I do a dumbell bench, same problem, you begin with the DB in your lap, right next to the phone.
The biggest is when I do deadlift, because again the bar almost grazes the front/side of my shorts where the iPhone resides.
Now so far, no problems, but this makes me very concerned. I am worried that I am either going to knick, hit, or drop a DB on my lap with the iPhone in my pocket getting touched, or the deadlift barbell will hit it.
So I have a few questions......
1) Am I being a worry busybody or is this really playing with fire?
2) What do you all do when you workout in the gym (lifting weights, cardio is no problem, very safe). Do you keep your iPhone in your pocket or do you have/recommend an armband?
Most people I see in the gym have it in their pocket, a few use bands...so that makes me thing perhaps am I just worrying, but I dunno.
3) Do you recommend an armband, or is the ottorbox going to protect it just fine if I hastly hit the phone in my pocket with a barbell or dumbell?
4) Or if I had the Griffen defender, would I be all set even if I drop a 60 DB on myself!
***Note to mods, I decided to make a separate thread for this topic, instead of putting it in the "protection" or "gym call disable" one because this is a larger question, and a very important one.
I felt if I put in one of the prior ones, already a few pages into it, this would be missed, and for people using the phone at the gym who want protection, indeed this is a larger, different topic.

Duct tape it to your head.
If you are paranoid that you will smash it with a dumbbell, then get an armband.

How to keep mail attachments synced across iPhone and Mac?

Hardware: iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1, MacBook Pro 10.7.2.
Software: Mail
Services: Yahoo mail
Issue: If I view an email on my phone without opening the attachment, the same email then appears on my Mac but without the attachment. The attachment is still present if I log on to Yahoo webmail.
This issue is causing me a lot of hassle and I risk missing important work related attachments when these are not flagged in the email message.
Is there a fix?

Hi there,
I have the similar problem and I was hoping that a solution has been derived by now.
Actually, already using iPhone, recently switched from PC to iMac and have a small issue with Mail that whenever I open any emails on my iPhone it marks the same email on iMac as "Read" and vice versa.
I need to keep emails on both devices as "UNREAD" until I open the email on that particular device. I do not want to automatically mark (sync) the email on iMac which I open on iPhone and vice versa.
Any help appreciated!
Cheers!

How to make my iphone sync with my Mac Book Pro without icloud

My iphone no longer syncs with Mac Book Pro now that I have downloaded Maverick. It just flicks open synching and flicks on to say "waiting for change to be applied" before it closes it's attempt at syncing and does nothing. I have read elsewhere it is because Maverick wants us to use icloud but I don't want to sync my contacts and calendar on icloud as it is not secure enough with the confidential information I have on my calendar and in contacts. I just want to make sure that my contacts are backed up on my computer as well as my calendar saying the same thing on my iphone as well as my Mac. My Mac calendar is the most up to date version at the moment and when I go out to meetings I want my iphone to be up to date too. All help appreciated in solving this syncing problem. Thanks

Plug yr iPhone to your compu in the old fashioned way with cable.
Just to cover yourself...select the iPhone in Devices of left pane of iTunes window, then on main pane, select radio button Back up to Computer. Right click on the iPhone in devices, do a backup. It shld then be on your compu'.
Then, back in main windo, select Info 'tab' from top of the right pane, and tick the Sync iCal events.
I'm sure this will help.
If it all goes pear-shape, u have the backup to restore the pre-sync device.

How to change computer iPhone syncs to without losing info

I bought a new iMac and am trying to set it up so I can use it to sync my iPhone (original not 3g) instead of the old PC we were using and are trying to phase out.
When I plug the phone into the iMac and try to sync, or even manually manage music, I get the message that "the iPhone is synced with another iTunes library, do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?"
I don't care about losing the music/pictures that are on the iPhone, as I can easily re-add them to the iPhone. However, I DO NOT want to lose the contacts, text messages, notes, and other data that is on the phone.
I have found hacks online to be able to sync an iPhone with multiple computers continuously, however I am simply looking to CHANGE the computer my phone syncs to, not use multiple computers all the time.
When I moved our music to the iMac, I created a new music library because it was much easier than doing the "consolidate library" process that I have had a ton of problems with in the past. Is this now creating the problem with the phone?
We're slowly trying to move all of our products to Apple...but Apple is not making this process very easy!

Thanks very much! That message "iphone is synced with another itunes library...erase this iphone" is an awful message. It should just read "music" and not "erase this iphone". I didn't care about erasing all my music on my iphone, as I have it all on my computer stored safely. I did not want to lose my contacts, applications, txt msgs, call history, etc. I thought Apple was supposed to be user friendly.... changing computers that my itunes library uses was very stressful because I couldn't find out how to properly do it without "erasing my iphone". There needs to be an article on this at apple.com! If there is one, please point me to it so I can bookmark it for the next time I switch computers

Can I keep 2 iPhones synced at once?

Hello all,
So I am getting the 5 next week. When it comes I will obviously transfer my backup of my 4 to the 5.
Now comes the question. A few days later when we get the old 4 switched over to my wifes number will she be able to sync her iphone on that same itunes which has all of our music and apps? Will it confuse the itunes or phones?
I know I had a problem trying to sync an old iPod Mini and my 4 a while back. So I'm trying to avoid any issues here.
Do I just need to create and keep 2 playlists?
Anything I need to do? Thank you.

You can sync as many iphones/ipods/ipads to one computer/library.

Music video/magnetic timeline - how to keep things in sync?

I'm working on a wedding video that is set to music. Certain parts of the song really belong with certain clips. It would be great to park those clips over the song and have them always be connected to that point in the song. But with the magnetic timeline, any adjustments made prior to that point in the song will move around the clips so they are no longer aligned where I want them to be.
I love the benefits of the magnetic timeline except this...when you're really trying to set things to a music track, it seems impossible to really lock down transition points or align markers relative to the music and have them stick with further modification.
Hopefully there is just something I'm missing about the way I should be working with it.
What are your workflows and tips for aligning video to specific points in an underlaying audio track throughout an entire project?

So I started arranging my project where the music track was the primary storyline and all video is connected to it on a secondary storyline. In theory this seems like it is working. But there's one thing I can't seem to wrap my head around still.
I would like to connect certain things to my secondary storyline (as if it were my primary storyline) such as B-roll and connected audio. This way if I am adjusting things on this secondary storyline, these audio and/or B-roll clips remain in sync with the clip they belong to.
Seems like turning these "connected" clips into a compound clip somewhat solves the issue, but I don't like two things about this method:
1. The different elements are not visible until you go into the compound clip. This lack of visibility of the elements in the timeline bothers me. I like to see the different "tracks" all at once. (such as how in the image below I can see the two audio tracks connected to the video clip).
2. If I connect all the clips (like in the image below) into a compound clip, I get one big clip that has blank video in front of and in back of the actual video. This makes transitions and dealing with collisions difficult or impossible in and out of this video since this compound clip can't be added to the secondary storyline.
What I would like to do is be able to anchor clips into a secondary storyline like you do to a primary storyline. Is this possible? How does one lock audio to a clip in a secondary storyline?
When video is on primary storyline, audio elements are connected to it. As I move the video around, the audio remains where it should. I like this behavior.
A compound clip of the two audio tracks and video track have black area before and after video, making transitions and adding it to the secondary storyline impossible.
Any way to attach these audio clips to the secondary storyline without a compound clip?

How to keep 2 macs synced

I have a Macbook Pro that I use for my home & office computer. I am thinking about purchasing an iMac for my office so i do not have to lug the laptop back and forth. My questions is: is there a way to keep the two computers synced? Same apps, music etc... Any solutions and/or suggestions are appreciated.
Thank you

Most stuff can be synced via iCloud. Music can be synced via iTunes Match. I use DropBox for files and passwords (1Password).

Help-how do you move iphone photos into iphoto on iMac??

I have 4,814 photos in my iphoto library (categorized into 114 events). On my iphone 4, I have 1,028 photos taken exclusively with the phone. Can someone tell me how to get all of my iphone photos into my iphoto library on my iMac?
Thanks----

Never mind..figured it out. Just in case anyone else is dense like me, just plug iphone into iMac, then launch iphoto. In iphoto, the iphone will be listed on the left as a device and all your iphone photos will show up to the right. Simply click import at the bottom of the screen and you're on your way.
