  • How can you get your ipod to play music on your ihome?

    I can't get my ipod to play on my ihome is says this accesssory is not supported by ipod touch!

    If it started after updating to iOS 5 it may be that the dock is not compatible with iOS 5.  Somebody else recently posted with the same problem after iOS 5.

  • HT5610 How can You authorise your Windows Vista computer??? I do not get this drop down menu nowI cannot get this here, have been trying for hours, why is this so uncooperative? My first impression of I tunes is not so good after that.

    How can you authorise your windows vista computer to play stuff you downloaded from itunes???  I cannot get this drop down menu shown on your support pages whatever I do.    I have been trying for ages.  This is not a good first impression.

    Authorize a Mac or PC
    Review the following before you authorize a computer:
    You can authorize up to five computers with your Apple ID.
    You must authorize your computer to download past purchases, use Home Sharing, or use the Automatic Downloads setting.
    You can play unprotected music that's in the AAC file format without authorizing your computer. This includes iTunes Plus tracks and content  from sources other than the iTunes Store, like your audio CDs.
    To authorize a computer, follow these steps:
    Open iTunes.
    Choose Store > Authorize This Computer from the menu bar.
    You may need to show the menu bar to see this option in Windows.     In earlier versions of iTunes, you can access this option from the Advanced menu.
    Enter your Apple ID and click Authorize.
    If your Apple ID uses an expired MobileMe account, you can still authorize your computer.
    In some cases, iTunes may ask you to authorize the computer again. iTunes should use the same authorization as before if the computer is in your  list of authorized computers.
    Learn what to do if iTunes repeatedly asks you to authorize when you try to play your content.

    Note : If you are Unable to see the Store Tab on your iTunes then click anywhere on your iTunes and press
    Ctrl + B key on your keyboard once and you should be able to see the Store tab in your iTunes.

  • HT3819 How can you use Home sharing to play music on an xbox 360 for example thats connected to the same WiFi network?

    My console is running under the same WiFi service as my itunes, iphone, and all the content i have saved in my library. How can i link, perhaps through HomeSharing, my content from my phone or computer to my xbox console?

    You can't.  Homesharing allow to share your iTunes content over Apple's devices.  XBox isn't made by Apple but Microsoft.

  • Hi, How do you  authorize your itunes account to download previous bought songs to my mac?

    Hi,
    I've been trying to give authorization to my mac so I can download my previous bought songs?

    Ever since iTunes became (almost all) DRM-free, you won't need to authorize your computer to play previously purchased content. Just go to iTunes Store>Purchased and download what you want. Then enjoy!

  • How can you stop your ipod touch data from being restored on the computer with a program that lets you see your deleated safari history

    heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllppppppp pppppppppppppp

    Delete the backup from iTunes. Go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and highlight the backup and click on delete. You have to do that after every sync. Also, make sure that you empty the recycle bin (PC) or trash (Mac) to really delete the backup.
    Also, in the future you can turn on Private browsings in Settings>Safari or go there and Clear History right before you sync.

  • How do you get your songs to play after you authorized the computer your on?

    how do you get your songs to play after you authorized the computer your on itunes?

    Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola.
    If it's a Mac, try Senuti or Music Rescue.

  • How can you keep your iPhone 4 (using it as my car's iPod) staying on the Audible app?  When I leave the car and return to continue hearing a book, it has switched to iTunes.

    How can you keep your iPhone 4 (using it as my car's iPod) staying on the Audible app?  When I leave the car and return to continue hearing a book, it has switched to iTunes.

    The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
    The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
    If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

    To restore from backup see:

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
