    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    When you try to copy data to the external drive, what happens? If you don't see any error, the external drive is formatted in NTFS, and OS X can't write in it.
    To be able to write on this external drive, you have to use an app like Paragon NTFS. Another solution would be to format the external drive in FAT32 or exFAT with Disk Utility > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU1.html Make sure you copied all the files of the external disk to the internal disk before doing it

  • How to replace an App purchased by another Apple ID?

    There is a free app purchased from an abondoned Apple ID while other apps are from the current Apple ID.  So, I want to download the free app again with the current Apple ID.  But there are data with the app, so deleting it and download again means the data will be erased.
    How can I replace the app using the current Apple ID and retain all data?  (I have Time Machine backup).

    You cannot.

    I meant after changing the Apple ID, I purchase it again. It keeps on asking me to update it with the initial Apple ID.
    You need to Delete the Old App and then get it again using Your Current Apple ID.

  • Lost my old iPhone ..... how do i remove the data in other Apple devices?

    My old iPhone (3GS on IOS 4.1 before iCloud was introduced) is lost. It was synchronized using iTunes. I have other devices (iPad, iMac). How do I remove the data created in that iPhone from Calendar, etc. The recurring event created in that old iPhone will continue until I remove them.
    Appreciate the help

    Settings -> General -> Reset -> Erase all Content and Settings
    or restore it to factory settings:

  • Why can't I carry on using my 2009 iPod Touch and 4 iPod Nano's. I don't wan't to buy any new versions. More and more apps are incompatible with my iPod Touch. I can't upgrade the sofware beyond v. 5. I certainly won't purchase any other Apple devices.

    My advice to any customers: Don't buy new devices. Apple is not looking after customers properly. Not all of us can afford to purchase new devices.

    Complain to the developers. The make the apps incomaptible with previour versions.

  • How do I share edited photos with other apple devices.

    Photo Stream does a great job of sharing photos between your mac, your ipad, and your iphone UNTILL you want to edit them. How do I edit a photo and then be able to see the edited version on all my devices?  If I edit on my Macbook, the changes are made in the iphoto library.  If I edit on my phone the changes are in the camera roll.  But the Photo Stream image remains unchanged yet it is the only version that can be seen by all devices.  Very frustrating when you edited a bunch of photos for better viewing, but can only see those changes on the device you made the edits on.  Also, trying to remembering which photos you edited on which device is impossible.  Any ideas on how to keep ONE editable photo database accessible from all your devices?

    If you edit a photo in iPhoto on your Mac and then use the Share button at the bottom and select iCloud ➙ MyPhotoStream
    the edited version will be added to the MyPhotoStream on all devices.  It has to be manually added. It's not automatic.
    If that edit is removed in iPhoto, i.e. Revert to Original, the edited version in My Photo Stream remains.

    Hi. I have shared an Apple ID with my children for some time.  As they are getting older they do not wnat me seeing all their messages, photos etc so want their own accounts.  How can they access their purchased music and apps on the new account please?

    Yes.
    On their iOS devices, under Settings>iTunes & App Store, they should use your Apple ID. When they log into iCloud, iMessage and Facetime, they should use their personal Apple IDs.

    how do i access a purchased book that i have on my adobe application on my laptop from my iphone adobe app?

    Hi j.v.fromnc,
    One of the advantages of having Pages in iCloud beta is its ability to share with other devices, so it is not surprising you want to be able to access it on your iPad. To begin with you will need to install Pages for iOS on the iPad.
    Pages
    Once the document is created in Pages in iCloud, it automatically becomes available to devices using your iCloud account. On the iPad, go to Settings > Pages and make sure that Use iCloud is on. Of course you will want to be using the same iCloud account.
    See this article for further information -

  • How do I transfer app purchases on my iPhone to my itunes library on a Windows machine?

    I'm on Windows 8.1 and using iTunes 11.1.5.
    I  was just going to update my phone from iTunes and I got a messege  saying (paraphrased), "There are apps on this phone that aren't in your iTunes  library. You should transfer all app purchases to your iTunes library  before continuing." I decided to just download without updating, but now  I'm wondering, how do I transfer app purchases to my computer?
    Supposedly  (according to mac users who I've seen post this in this community) they  get a dialog when they plug their phone in asking them if they want to  transfer their app purchases or if they want to synch their phone. I  only get the option to synch my phone. So, how can I transfer my app  purchases into my iTunes library? (I know how to back the phone up, I  don't think that's the same thing).
    Thanks!

    The iTunes source list is where you select things like your Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, AudioBooks in your iTunes library, and where your iTunes playlists for music is located.
    Selecting your iPhone under Devices in the iTunes source list is how you make your various selections for syncing content with iTunes on your computer.

    Hello iTouch questions,
    This can be done by choosing the File menu in iTunes (if it doesn't appear, you may need to hit the 'Alt' button on your keyboard, it will appear at the top of the window), then Devices, then Transfer Purchases.
    After connecting your device to the computer and its icon appears in iTunes, go to the File menu, then Devices, and choose Transfer Purchases from "(Your device name)".

  • I just purchased an iMac.  How can I use apps purchased on my iPhone and iPad on my new laptop?

    I just purchased an iMac.  How can I use apps purchased on my iPhone and iPad on my new laptop?

    1) Congratulations on purchaing an iMac. But an iMac is not considered a laptop.
    2) Apps you bought for you iPhone and iPad can interchange with each other, but can NOT run on an Imac or a MacBook.
    You will have to buy the same title again from the Mac App Store. When you do, you can run them on your iMac and your MacBook.

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.
    <!-- VERY important to include-->
    <b>WARNING:</b> Do not run Firefox's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u>
