I have 2 Itunes accts. from previous Iphones. I now want to put the music, apps, etc onto my new phone from both accounts. When I sync one account to my new phone and try to sync the other items from my 2nd account - it wants to erase all of the items I synced from the 1st account. Please help! ????

There is no solution other than getting all of your content into a single iTunes library. By design, iPhone syncs or manually manages with one computer/iTunes account at a time.

  • My iPod touch 4G 8GB, lets me download apps on iTunes, but when I go to my iPod, and then apps, the entire selection is grey and won't let me click my new apps to add to my iPod. What can I do?

    My iPod touch 4G 8GB, lets me download apps on iTunes, but when I go to my iPod, and then apps, the entire selection is grey and won't let me click my new apps to add to my iPod. Usually I just restore my ipod and re-download everything, but thats time consuming, and after I unplug my ipod from the cord connected to my computer, I can replug it right after and this will pop up again. I'm getting tired of doing this.
    Like I said, it will let me download the apps off iTune, just when I come to my apps page on my ipod, it won't let me add it to my iPod. I can't download it straight from my ipod either, but iTunes doesn't work on my ipod, and when I update my apps, when they're in waiting they never move. What can I do?

    I would say that you are not connected to the iTunes library you last synced with. You can only sync with one iTunes library. If you connect the iPod to another computer/another iTunes library then you get what you see.
    You can only manually manage music and videos among different libraries, not apps.

  • Can iTunes be set to play only one song and then stop when the song is finished and not go on to play another unless commanded?

    Can iTunes be set to play only one song and then stop when the song is finished and not go on to play another unless commanded?

    If you uncheck all of the songs, they will only play if explicitly commanded. Command-click in a checkbox and they will all be unchecked. Command-clicking again will check the all again should you want to do that.

  • HT4236 When I am syncing one albumn and then another the previous synced photos gets deleted why is it so?

    When I am syncing one albumn and then another the previous synced photos gets deleted why is it so?

    That is how it works. Synced photos can't deleted directly on the iPad, instead that are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync - so you need to select and sync all the photos that you want to remain on the iPad on each photo sync

  • Does anyone know why when i change a contacts number and then try to send them a message the old number still pops up??

    Does anyone know why when I change a contacts number and then try to send them a message the old number pops up aswell??

    The phone remembers recently used numbers just like how Mail remembers recently used email addresses. As time goes by the phone will eventually forget unused number that are not in your contacts as long as you do not use it. Same for unused email addresses that are not in your contacts.

  • When I download photos to my I-Mac and then try to open them,  It says that I don't have permission to view them. I have been using the computer for several months without this problem, but it has appeared within the last two weeks.

    When I try to open my downloaded photos from a DVD through finder the computer says that I don't have permission to view the files.
    This is something that has just happened recently.

    Copy the images to your Pictures folder or Desktop and then try again.
    If that doens't work, then do #6 here, (Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs)
    that will set the permissions to you.

  • Why doesn't my iTunes content show in Library? Also, How can I sync music purchased on my iPhone to my PC's iTunes Library?

    I have been having several annoying problems with iTunes for the past several months...
    1) Library content not showing after folder relocation:
    First, in order to free up space on my C drive, I wanted to relocate my iTunes folder to a new 1TB hard drive (F) I installed. I did so according to Apple's instructions online, but despite setting the new location to be my library in my iTunes preferences, the content never shows up in the iTunes Library in the actual application. This is my most annoying problem, so please someone help me to resolve this! Thanks.
    2) Albums purchased on iPhone 5 only sometimes sync with PC
    I have purchased a few albums on my iPhone 5 and only some of them have synced to my PC when I connect my iPhone via USB. They don't even appear under the "Purchases" playlist in the iTunes Store. So, I have content right now on my iPhone that I can only access via my iPhone, and some of the music has gone missing. One or two tracks from albums are not there despite me purchasing full albums at a time... This is also pretty dang annoying and prevents me from trying a solution I'd looked up to fix my third problem...
    3) Album artwork mixed up/mismatched on iPhone 5
    This is pretty self-explanatory. Ony day my album artwork decided to play musical chairs. So now, for example, it shows Andrew W.K.'s bloody face when I listen to Zedd, and shows Skrillex when I listen to Symphony X. I read online that if you desync your content on you iPhone so that none of the music is there any longer, and then resync content from your computer, it will fix this issue. I'm hesitant to apply this solution until I can fix the ones above though, because I don't want to lose content that I have legally paid for.
    My final problem:
    4) Apple charges $20 for a support phone call for iTunes
    Seriously, WTH? I hope the community can help me out. Thanks all!

    1) The best way to relocate the iTunes library folder is to move the entire iTunes folder with all subfolders to the new path, then press and hold down shift as start iTunes and keep holding until prompted to choose a library, then browse to the relocated folder and open the file iTunes Library.itl inside it.
    If you've done something different then provide some more details about what is where and I should be able to help.
    2) Purchases on the device should automatically transfer to a Purchased on <DeviceName> playlist, but it my depend a bit on whether automatic iCloud downloads are enabled. If there is a cloudy link then the transfer might not happen. You can use File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. In iTunes you should also check out iTunes Store > Quick Links > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer.
    3) Backup the device, then immediately restore it. In some cases you need to add a restore as new device into that equation. Obbviously not to be attempted until you're sure all your media is in your library. See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device should it be needed.
    4) I believe there is complimentary 1 incident 90-day support with hardware purchases, but no free software support for iTunes itself. AppleCare gets you a different level of support.

  • HT204370 If I pause a rented movie and then try to resume play, I am told that the movie has not been downloaded and to go to iTunes in the menu and download it.  There is no download section showing and the search for rentals option produces nada...

    When I pause a rented movie and then try and finish watching it, I am told that I have already rented this movie and it has not been downloaded.  I am instructed to go to iTunes on the AppleTv menu, but there is no download section on any menu and search for rentals only gives me a continuous spinning wheel?

    The time it takes to load is dependent on your network. Rentals made on ATV won't be available on any other device.
    What is your current connection. Use speedtest.net
    Make sure DNS is set to automatic (settings - general - network)
    If on wifi try Ethernet
    Go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC) to get a report of the network, look for signal strength and noise

  • Can i re download music etc purchased on my account?

    My daughters ipod broke and has been replaced with a new one. Also, her itunes was on a laptop that too is not accessible. She has a new laptop and new ipod. All purchased downloads were made on my account. Can she re download them? I have searched purchased history and they are listed - but how do i select download again? I was advised that I should perhaps try purchasing them again and then I would be told that I have already purchased the item??? Seems odd - but does anyone know? I amusing itunes 10 on mac but daughter will use it on windows. (same itunes account - different library of course)

    ok. I understand. I will contact iTunes to see if they can do anything. I have always backed up my PC - my daughters laptop wasn't allowed too near me! She was insistent that it would be fine!! Anyhow, as I have previously had up to 6 itunes libraries on my PC - all using one account - is it possible I wonder if I can find this music of hers in the backup files somewhere.? I am on the search. (used amazon too and they are looking into it for us) Now that I am on Mac I will be using time machine regularly - once I have sussed how to! Thanks for your help and I will recommend that my daughters new laptop is regularly backed up!!

  • HT204053 My wife and I have an iphone each using one apple id. How do we stop items being deleted from one phone and then find it has been deleted from the other?

    My wife and I have an iphone each using one apple id. How do we stop phone contacts being deleted from one phone and then find it has been deleted from the other?
    Also this works when one of us downloads an app it appears on the other iphone

    You need to use separate iCloud accounts. This will mean that you can both have your own separate contracts and calendars and put an end to them being deleted by each other.
    Whether or not you have a separate iTunes account, is up to you. If you have a separate iTunes accounts you will not be able to access the music, books, apps that have been purchased by the other. This may be exactly what you want, but it also means that you both may end up purchasing the same item.

    how do i find which Apple ID is associated with music in my iTunes? When I sync with my iPad and iPhone it tells me I have music, apps etc from more than five IDs. I am asked for PW for a number of now extinct accounts.

    Go to Settings/icloud. The Apple ID at the top of the screen is the only one you need to be concerned about. That one MUST be a working ID, and you must know the password for it, or you will be unable to use the phone if it ever crashes, you want to update it, or you want to sell it.
