    How do i get my music off the icloud and back into just my library?  It started downloading my music in my library and put it on this icloud and now I cannot play the music in the library that has been downloaded on the icloud

    iTunes should show you two copies of the file (track) one which is in the local music folder (on the laptop / pc) and one that is available from iCloud.

    Transfer the iTunes folder from your old computer to your new computer. It's in your My Music >> iTunes folder. You'll probably need an external hard drive to do this. Make sure you upgrade the old and the new computers to the latest iTunes before transferring your music to the new machines.

    Find an app to which you can save the attachment and which also uses file sharing
    iOS: About File Sharing
    or similar to get the music into your computer. Import into iTunes library and sync to the iPod. There is no direct way to get music into your iPod Music app besides purchasing  from iTunes or syncing from your iTunes library
    GoodReader should work but I do not think it is available for the 2G

    The music sync is how you got the music from the computer to the ipod in the first place.
    You cannot sync it from the ipod to the computer as I explained in the previous post, unless it is itunes purchased music.

  • How do I get my iMessages to/from iPhone to also appear on my iPad

    Until fairly recently, all iMessages I sent/received appeared on both my iPhone & my iPadmini. Now, they are completely separate. I haven't changed any settings. How do I get back to seeing the iMessages on both devices? Thanks!
    (7.1.2 on both devices, iPhone 4S)

    On all your devices check Settings/Messages/Send & Receive and ensure they are set to be "reached at" on all your devices. I also set the "Start a new conversation" to my iPhone on all my devices. You may also have to Sign Out of your Apple ID by tapping the ID then sign back in on all or one of your devices.
    You may have to do the same for you FaceTime settings.

  • How do i get the contacts off my itunes that belonged to my old iphone onto my new iphone? Help :(

    I hope someone can help me, my old iphone is no longer working and i have gotten a new one. Problem is that i dont know how to get all my contacts off my itunes and onto my new iphone. I always thought i was doing the right thing by backing up all the time Help!!!!

    When you say iTunes, what exactly - Just a back up or were you syncing them to Outlook/Address Book app?
    If it's a backup then you can only do a full restore to get them back (that's the point of a backup!). If you were syncing them (different to a back up) to Outlook (windows)/Address Book (Mac) then it's just a case of setting the sync back up on the new phone in iTunes.
    I suspect you did a back up from reading your post though..

  • How can I get my i books from my iPad to sync onto my iPhone

    how can I get the downloads on my iPad to sync with my iPhone

    For ibooks bought from the iBookstore then you might be able to redownload them on your iPhone via the Purchased tab in its iBooks app - but not all ibooks are compatible with iPhones, some can only be read on iPads and Mac computers, so they may not all show on your phone for redownloading on it.
    Or you can connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to your computer (and if using a Mac with Mavericks or Yosemite on it then do File > Move Books From iTunes in its iBooks app), and you can then sync (those that are compatible) to your iPhone.

    hi Darryn
    Hope you are doing well and sorry to learn that you are having this issue.
    Taking into consideration the security of your data and your own, every time that email is reset is locked for 6 months.
    I see how that can an inconvinience in your situation but remember the purpose of that in my modest opinion is to protect data that is send to you and you to that email to print, A good example.
    You changed the email a week ago told your relatives and they forgot and they sent  information confidetial or private information met to you but I choose the email you had last week and I get a hold of this information.
    This is why I think HP make the decision of Automaticly locking the old email as soon is changed.
    What you can do to keep it as close as you can you from the one that you had previously is to add a number or another lettter to the old one and communicate the changes to your allowed senders.
    Hope this gives you a good explanation and an alternative;
