How do I backup my iphone to a computer when every time I plug it into the computer, it starts syncing it to itunes or trying to download itunes?  How do I back it up and where do I find the backup?

The backup does not include any itunes content. NO apps, music,etc
You can transfer itunes purchases from iphone to computer:  File>Transfer Purchases
You need to copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new computer.

  • I just got a brand new ipod shuffle and every time i plug it into my computer it shuts down itunes. What's going on?

    Its a brand new 2 gb ipod shuffle and has never been connected to a computer before.

    It would be interesting if it could "talk" to iTunes on a different host computer..if it couldn't it sounds like it would be some type of hardware problem, and would involve a warranty replacement of the new device.....wish I had a better answer...

    Sue321,
    It's a waste of a very expensive Mac to use it as a simple Netflix/TV streamer when less expensive and more capable devices exist. The Mac will get dirty from being exposed, overheat and just be a pain hooking cables whenever you want to watch TV and trying to fiddle with a remote.
    A better low cost option is to get either a $60 Roku or a AppleTV, or if you want to play BlueRay and regular movie DVD's and have a few video games around for the kids, then a Playstation. Buy a HDMI cable online, they are only about $10.
    All three options have a remote control, and every thing is designed to work on the screen, no need for the computer.
    With the Mac, your going to have problems with copy protection, sound and other accessibility problems as computers are not really designed to be used as entertainment devices, or to power a big screen, but rather versatile tools, and along with that versatility comes some sacrifice.
    You can use the same Netflix account for both the Mac AND the Roku etc., at the same time, in fact both are very much integrated, watch one show on the Mac while having another on the TV.
    Also if you so happen to burn out or have a electrical accident with the less expensive device, it's only $60, instead of a few thousand $$ with the Mac. Not to mention once you set it up, the Roku, AppleTV etc is pretty much done, sits there ready to be used as intended for anyone to use who can push a button.

  • How do I get photoshop elements 11 to stop opening every time I plug in my iPhone on windows 10?

    Please help, it happens every time I plug in my phone and is really annoying. I've looked into the topic online and all I can see is help for the mac and other sites that don't help. Thanks and please get back to me soon.

    This is probably a setting in your operating system.
    I don't have the Windows 10 Preview version but try either searching for Autoplay or go to
    Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Autoplay
    The phone is probably being treated as a camera and so set the default action accordingly.

  • How do I get my Time Machine to appear as a disk in the Finder (wireless) and where do I find the place to assign TM ports to a NAS (Pogoplug v.4). Runnig 10.7 Lion on iMac. Thanks

    I am trying to set up Pogoplug Series4 as a NAS attached to my Time Machine router. The TM does not appear as a drive in the Finder and I cannot locate it to assign ports to the PP device. Running 10.7 on an iMac. Time Machine and Time Capsule work fine for backup and internet, I just cannot find it.
    Thanks, Ken

    After I posted the question, I finally figured out that I needed to open the necessary ports to allow the Pogoplug website to communicate  with my computer. After navigating to the proper area (in Airport Utility) and authorizing  the ports, it seems to work. The Pogoplug device is neither as easy, intuitive or plug-and-play is it claims to be. We will see if it was worth the effort.
    Podini's Time Machine FAQ's is a good resource, however. Thanks for sharing.    
    For anyone who searches for Pogoplug/port forwarding help and ends up here, this is the entry that helped most:

  • How to install my onboard Networkcard and where do i find the drivers?

    I have updated my computer with some hardware and i now need to install the sound and network drivers again. I think i found the sound drivers  but i cant find the network driver. Anyone got a link for me? And how do you install these drivers? Just run the installfile and everything goes automatic or is it more complicated?
    Btw: I have Windows XP on a 40gb harddisk and a maxtor 300gb harddisk on secondary master. But in windows xp it only show 127gb (i think i was). Why?
    Thanks for all the help.
    BTW: If anyone got any other nice pages to get my mainboard up to speed, bring it:)

    Windows needs SP1 or greater to recognize drives larger than 137GB. Install SP1 or SP2 and partition the remaining space via disk management.
    And we can't give you any info on the network card without knowing what motherboard it is.
    Good Luck

  • How to enable telemetry logs and where can i find the command line for sun

    Hi i tried creating the telemetry logs directory but the logs are not being populated. i created the following directory:-
    /opt/SUNWmsgsr/data/telemetry/imap/usersns1
    where usersns1 is the userid.
    Also pl. tell me where can i get the command list for sun one messaging server to use the command line utility to list, delete mailboxes. also can i search for all the mailboxes under one domain name. if yes then which command i have to use.
    thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Hi i tried creating the telemetry logs directory but
    the logs are not being populated. i created the
    following directory:-
    /opt/SUNWmsgsr/data/telemetry/imap/usersns1
    where usersns1 is the userid.Make sure the permissions (ownership) on the user directory and the sub directory match those that messaging server uses - by default mailsrv:mail. This is the most common cause of the telemetry data not being created. The other thing to verify is that the user's account isn't stored as user@domain, otherwise you may need to create the directory as the entire user@domain (try both just to be sure).
    Also pl. tell me where can i get the command list
    for sun one messaging server to use the command line
    utility to list, delete mailboxes. also can i search
    for all the mailboxes under one domain name. if yes
    then which command i have to use.The Messaging Server reference guide is a good place to start (lists all the command-line utilities/flags and what-not):
    http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-4429?l=en
    The mboxutil command is used to list/create/delete mailboxes and you can use a pattern to only list those mailboxes in a specific domain.
    Regards,
    Shane.
    thanks in advance.

    I want to download a previous movie purchased but when I go to the tab, I see tv, music, etc.  Where do I find my movies that I bought?

    You don't.
    You buy one and only one download of movies. It is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
    Sorry.

  • I'm trying to transfer my iPhoto library to a new mac and I can't find the library on my old mac.

    When I "revel in finder" a photo in my iPhoto app on my old mac, it shows the path: hard drive, user, meghanica, library, iphoto library and so on. BUT when I go to my hard drive and try to follow that path on my laptop, there is no "library" folder to open in meghanica. I have tried to spolight the library folder with no luck. All of my photos that I've looked at in iPhoto show this path. I can't figure out why when I go to my hard drive, it's not there. Any ideas? I'm using updated iPhoto '11 on os x Lion on a macbook pro. Thanks!

    It sounds like the library might have been placed in your Home/Library folder which is invisible.
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    For  Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    When you find the iPhoto library move it to your Pictures folder.
