  • HELP! Have new PC, how can i get iphone's music, apps ect onto new itunes??

    Hi there,
    Unfortunatly my laptop was stolen a week before christmas. My Iphone was synced to the laptop and I also used the Itunes' Store to purchase my music from the computer aswell as buying some from the phone itself.
    I now have a new laptop and have just downloaded Itunes to it. I logged in to the Itunes store using my apple account fine. I then tried to sync my Iphone to the new laptop's Itunes but it said that 'music frm my Iphone would be replaced by my Itunes libary' (which is empty).
    If i go to purchased underneeth the Itunes store it is empty. However if i got in to my Apple Account Information it had the full list of my past pursaches from my old laptop but shows no way of importing those songs and applications in to my Itunes Libary.
    So really i just need to know how to sync my Iphone to my new laptop and keep the files i have already purchased which are on my Iphone at the moment.
    Help would be great. Many thanks, Tom

    You mean songs purchased with iTunes on your computer that was stolen which weren't transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process?
    People get new PC's all the time.
    Sure they do, and many people also maintain a backup for their important data stored on an external drive or some other external media used for backup purposes only that includes their iTunes library - especially iTunes content that was purchased from the iTunes store. Apple includes a warning or alert message about maintaining a backup of your iTunes store purchases after making a purchase - maybe not after every purchase, but often enough.
    What happened to your other important data stored on your laptop that was stolen? Was that data included with your backup or did you lose everything with the theft?
    Just one of the many reasons why this is so important. Hard drives don't last forever and can have a partial or complete failure at any time - even the brand new hard drive with your new computer. I know some people who maintain two backups in case the media for one of their backups fail. Not likely that two would fail at the same time. I use iDisk for one of my backups, and I use an external flash drive for my other, which includes my entire iTunes library. Important regardless the platform but even more so with a Windows PC due to constant virus, adware, and spyware concerns.
    Apple may help you with this, but they aren't obligated to do so.

  • My iphone has calendar history for 10 years.  my icloud only shows about 6-8 weeks back.  how can i get icloud to show all the calendar events in the past that are on iphone?

    my iphone has calendar history for 10 years.  my icloud only shows about 6-8 weeks back.  how can i get icloud to show all the calendar events in the past that are on iphone?

    I encountered a similar problem when finally (and with much regret) I was obliged to migrate my MobileMe to iCloud last month.
    Many years of iCal history vanished without trace during this automated transition by Apple and iCloud then kindly synched the resulting vacuum back to iCal on my Mac.
    Fortunately, iCloud wasn’t able to decimate iCal on my other Macs because (1) they are still running Snow and (2) I had switched them off as a precaution.  Good job I did.
    My solution was to export my iCal data on one of those other Macs to a backup file – then I imported that backup file into my Lion-updated Mac’s iCal. That restored all the iCloud-deleted iCal data back on to my Mac and this was promptly synched automatically to my Calendar on iCloud.  So now it’s all there and showing.
    Perhaps you could do something similar?  In the meantime, be very careful not to let iCloud’s amnesia get synched to your iPhone (and other devices).
    Experience has taught me never to trust an “upgrade” until it is proven to be working correctly and always to keep in reserve another Mac with a properly-functioning system and all synching to it switched off...

  • After updating to iOS 7 the contact photos no longer appear when I receive a call. How can I get them to show again?

    After updating to iOS 7 the contact photos no longer appear when I receive a call. How can I get them to show again?

    I'm having the identical problem on my iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 7--no ability to update apps or download new apps.  Here is what Apple tech support emailed to me:
    I understand that you are unable to download or update applications after updating iOS7 on your iTunes. I know you must be eager to get this resolved and I will be happy to help you today.
    ... to help you better with this issue I would request you to please try this steps given below to resolve your issue.
    Please follow this steps:
    1) Double tap the home button
    2) Hold down on an icon
    3) Tap the red "X" on iTunes, and the App Store.
    4) Tap Settings > Store > Tap your Apple ID, and choose sign out
    5) Tap Settings
    6) Tap General
    7) Tap Reset
    8) Tap Network Settings
    Once it has been closed with multi-tasking, and you have rebooted the device in the network settings reset, please sign in, and try again. 
      Howevr, if you are facing the same issue than for this issue, you may need to call our AppleCare technical support team. A technical Advisor will be able to tell you about Apple's complimentary and fee-based support. The technical Advisor can also assist you in determining what option might be most helpful to you in this case.
    Mildly amusing that the instructions for force-closing a program are the IOS 6 instructions, which do not work on IOS 7. 
    Otherwise I'm having a little success with this.  Some apps (not all) are updating. It seems that a few more apps update each time I go through the process (close everything, sign out, and either reset or reboot, then go to the app store, sign in and try to update all).  So far it has been a very lengthy, iterative process. 

  • How can i get iphone 4s to remind me of missed calls

    how can i get iphone 4s to remind me of missed calls

    No, not even your phone will give you a missed call sound.  It just shows a red number in the top right corner of the phone app if you have a missed call/voicemail.  If you open the phone app and see who called, that number will disappear.  So if you want to be reminded to call that person later, then you need to create a reminder in your reminder app to remind you at a specific day/time to call them back.  Hopefully that all makes sense.

    How do I get "iPhone" to show up as a mobile device when I edit contacts?

    Hi Chimbo,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you want to change the label associated with a contact's phone number. See the iPhone User Guide for the steps:

    Pg. 101 says:
    Edit a contact: Choose a contact, then tap Edit. You can:
    • Change a field label: Tap the label and choose a different one. To add a new field, tap Add Custom Label.

  • I put in my memory card to the left side of the computer, but I cannot find the file of pictures anywhere. Its not even on my desktop. What should I do and how can I get it to show up on my desktop?

    I put in my memory card to the left side of the computer, but I cannot find the file of pictures anywhere. Its not even on my desktop. What should I do and how can I get it to show up on my desktop?

    If your Mac is new-ish and has one of the Lions as its OS, the drives, cards, USB sticks no longer show up, even though they're there. Go to Finder's Preferences and tick the corresponding items in the General and Sidebar tabs.

  • My computer crashed and I no longer have the itunes library. i get an error msg that my iphone is synced to another library - how can I get the info from the phone to the itunes library?

    my computer crashed and I no longer have the itunes library. i get an error msg that my iphone 3g is synced to another library - how can I get the info from the phone to the itunes library without losing everything? How do I delete old audiobooks from my iphone?

    You can transfer itunes purchases:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

    In my iCal, "new reminder" does not appear in the menu under "File". How can I get reminders to show up on my iCal?

    If you're running Mountain Lion (10.8.3), reminders is now a separate app.  Launch reminders from your applications group and you will be able to access File>New Reminder.

  • When I have a pdf file open, I used to be able to click on "Bookmarks" tab on left side and allow me to click on each individual page and delete if I needed to.  Now when I click on the Bookmarks tab, that section is empty.  How can I get it to show each

    when I have a pdf file open, I used to be able to click on "Bookmarks" tab on left side and allow me to click on each individual page and delete if I needed to.  Now when I click on the Bookmarks tab, that section is empty.  How can I get it to show each page again?

    Hi chrismarks1,
    I think you may be confusing bookmarks with thumbnails. If you click the Page Thumbnails icon (the one above the Bookmarks icon), then you can delete a page by clicking its thumbnail, and clicking the Delete Pages icon (the trashcan icon). Just make sure that you're viewing the PDF file in Acrobat (rather than Acrobat Reader), as you can't delete pages from Reader.
    Best,

    Where are you looking on your iPad for the shows?  In iTunes?  If so, look under Videos.
