  • TS4036 how do i backup photos and music from my computer to icloud

    How do I backup photos and music to icloud to download to my iphone4s or ipad.  Not having any luck transferring by direct connect

    You can redownload music purchased from iTunes as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.  Music from other sources can only be accessed from iCloud if you subscribe to iTunes Match.
    Photos can be transferred by putting them in a folder, then selecting the folder on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing.  Or, you can transfer them over wifi by using an app like PhotoSync.  To stream them with iCloud, you have to set up iCloud on your computer as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html, enable photo stream, then add photos as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2606.

  • How to backup apps and music from an iphone 3g using itunes 11

    Hi, my godson has been using an iPhone 3G as an iPod for music and gaming apps. I want to give him my iPhone 4 (not a 4S) and I have iTunes 11 (registered with my appleID) on my Win8 laptop. I've done a Backup of the 3G and then restored to the 4, the settings and photos "transferred" with the Restore operation, but the apps and music didn't "transfer." How do I backup (all apps and music and photos,etc.--everything on the 3G--to the iPhone 4 using iTunes 11. I think I could have done it easily with older versions of iTunes (with the "Explorer" bar on the left side of iTunes), but I can't seem to figure out how to do it with iTunes 11.
    Thanks!

  • Backed-up iPhone onto computer, got new iphone, restored from backup, apps and music are gone!?

    I have read that this is a common question, but I just don't understand and need it explained to me in a simple manner.. I'm not very "tech savvy".  Why would music and apps NOT be included in a back up?? Where are they now? Apple replaced my iPhone so I don't even have to old one for reference.  I can re-download my apps at no extra cost, but it seems like in order to re-download my music, I would have to pay for it again! What to do???

    Apps and music do not need to be saved in the backup, they are already in iTunes. iTunes contains your music library and your apps. Apps can be transferred to the iTunes library as necessary, but music should be housed there. If it is all music that you downloaded from iTunes, then you can put it there the same was as you do apps, but transferring purchases.

    thanks all

    the following post by Zevoneer in this thread http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8794716 says it all:
    Did you back up your purchases before you you reinstalled your system? If you erased your drive then the purchases will have been erased along with everything else. If you didn't make a back-up of your purchases to restore from (as you are advised to do) then I'm sorry to say that the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
    "Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage." iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
    You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on this link you'll be able to email your query: iTMS Customer Service
    If you have an iPod that still has the purchases on it the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer

  • How do I load pics and music onto ipad without another computer

    I bought a IPAD 2 after my home computer crashed. I had all of my Pictures and Music saved on an external hard drive. Problem is I don't have a personal computer to load all of them onto to transfer to my IPAD? Please help!!!

    Unless I am missing something, you can't transfer the music and photos from an external drive to the iPad. You need a computer that has an operating system that can move the files from the drive to the computer and then to the iPad. Or you could sync the content from the drive, I think, but you still need an operating system in order to make the transfer work.

  • How to not backup apps, photos, music into my laptop?

    My sister has an iPad, she wants some of my apps to be installed in hers. But when I synced it, it was backed up. My laptop's memory usage increased. I don't want her music, photos, and apps also to be synced in my iTunes because it will consume the memory. Please help. Thank you very much!

    Hi! Thanks for the reply. Here it is, I just don't want all of her apps, photos, music, files, etc. to be synced into my iTunes on my laptop. Since, it'll consume great memory usage on my laptop. All I want is just to transfer my apps to her iPad. That's all. Please do help. Thank you!

  • How to download all of the music onto my computer from my ipod.

    Recently my computer was restored to factory settings and I lost itunes along with all of the music that was on it. I have an ipod classic..the newer ones and I was wondering how I download the music from my ipod back onto my computer? Right now I am just downloading itunes all together.
    Thanks!

    This is why maintaining a backup is basic.
    Where is your backup?
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup (terrible idea), then you can transfer itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchases

  • How to copy backup of iTunes library onto another computer?

    My primary laptop with my music library just crashed. I have a older laptop that I plan to use while I get the other repaired. I have a complete backup of my music library on external drive. After installing iTunes on the spare laptop I copied the backup music library to the iTunes music folder. However, when I start itunes, nothing shows up in iTunes. This has probably been discussed but several searches have not found how to recover this. Does anyone know what the process is?
    Thanks

    If you want to backup your iPod onto another computer you can download a program called "iPod to computer transfer" at the following URL:

  • How do i share apps and music between 2 of my apple ids?

    I have a work apple id for my new iphone5, and a home one for all my other stuff !
    I want to have my home music, films etc available on my iphone ?
    any ideas

    Hi Brett:
    Congrats on your new purchase of a MacBook Pro!
    The key to holding chats between 2 of your own mac's is having a seperate screen name for each of the mac's. You can sign-up for another .Mac account screen name that you are able to keep after the free trial, or you can sign-up for a free AIM screen name at: http://www.aim.com.
    Once you have a seperate screen name for each of your macs, you'll be able to conduct a video chat between the two.

  • HT1373 how do i share apps and music between two itunes accounts

    How do I share music from my itunes account with my daughter so she can put it on her ipad?

    To give other users read-only access to your iTunes library, use the Sharing features of iTunes. Sharing works over the local network as well as on the same computer. See the built-in help for details.
    To give others selective access to your iPhoto library, you have the option of using iCloud Photo Sharing, if the privacy implications don't bother you. The images will be stored temporarily on Apple servers.
    If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support articles linked below.
    iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
    iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users
    There is a way to share the library without moving it to a secondary volume. If you really need to do that, ask for instructions.
