how to authorize a different computer to sync iphone and get purchased itunes

FIRST, copy the iTunes folder from your old computer to the new one BEFORE YOU RUN ITUNES for the first time. Depending on your computer it will be in the Music or My Music folder. Copy the entire folder, including the iTunes Library file and the iTunes Media (or iTunes Music) folders.
Install iTunes and Authorize it to the same account as the old computer on the Store menu.
Connect the iPhone. Set up syncing with desktop apps on the Info tab.
Sync the iPhone.

Different id on my iphone and my itunes on my mac

does the syncing has any impact if my iphone and my itunes on my mac has different ID?

It shouldn't if your computer is authorized for all the Apple IDs used to purchase media (music, apps, etc.) on your phone (You authorize your computer in iTunes>Store>Authorize this computer.)

How can i store music on my iPhone and use iTunes match?

I signed up for Itunes match but found the streaming music uses a lot of data and is too expensive. I then put the music back on my iphone but found that enabling itunes match will delete the music on my phone. Is there anyway to keep the music on my iphone and also connect to itunes match?

Thank you so much for the response. This half sorts out my issue, as turning off Musicmatch means I can load music onto my iPad, but the minute I turn it back on to access my library whilst travelling I will lose what I have loaded as it comes up saying " all music will be erased".
I really apprecaite your time, so will just have to live with what I load. Seems weird that Apple wouldn't consider people want to listen to music on planes or in Non - wifi zones??
Thanks again!

How can I take photos on my iPhone and get these on my iPad

Using iCloud how do I get photos that I've taken on my iPhone to show on my iPad photo stream?

Sign into the same iCloud account on both devices in Settings>iCloud and turn on My Photo Stream and Shared Photo Streams in Settings>iCloud>Photo Stream. After that, new photos added to the camera roll will be streamed to both devices when the camera app is closed, you device is connected to wifi and has at least 20% battery life remaining.
Photo stream only adds photos take after enabling photo stream. To use stream photos taken before enabling photo stream to your other devices, create a shared photo stream containing the photos and invite yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99).

HT1206 I buy apps in my iPhone using different Apple IDs. Which Apple ID should I use to authorize the computer when synchronizing iPhone with iTunes?

I buy apps in my iPhone using different Apple ID. Which Apple ID should I use to authorize the computer when sync iPhone with iTunes?

Hi again,
After a little further research, it appears that you would need to create separate iTunes libraries in order to be able to continue to purchase and download previously purchased items on the same computer, for two different Apple IDs. Sorry - but my husband and I have had the library we sync with authorized for so long, that we have not run into this issue, but it appears that you will get an warning when you try to authorize the second ID on the same computer, indicating that another ID is already associated with it.
So, you will probably have to set up separate iTunes libraries for each ID:

Sorry for any confusion - hope this helps!

HT1386 Hello, When trying to sync, I get the following message. This computer is no longer authorized for apps that are installed on the iPhone "Terri George's iPhone". Would you like to authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Store?

while trying to sync with my iphone I recieve the message: This computer is no longer authorized for apps that are installed on the iPhone “Terri George’s iPhone”. Would you like to authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Store? When I put in my password and hit authorize, I get a message telling me there was an unknown error (-50). Would love to sync today. Any help would be appreciated.

The -50 error is documented in this article:
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
Here is a synopsis:
Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.

I sync two iPhones and an iPad with one iTunes library on the same computer and each device has different content. Each device has its own sync preferences with iTunes. You can transfer the same music and apps to each device or different music and apps.
Are you sharing the same Apple ID or iTunes account?

HT1535 I own an iPhone4, an iPod 3rd generation and an iPad 2. I use the same iTunes library but unfortunately synced iPad with a different computer before syncing to my own. Do I risk losing the films/apps I've downloaded onto my iPad if I sync with my i

I don't want to sync what is on my iPod to my iPad. (I have a 32gb iPod but only 16gb on iPad. The iPod I use mostly for music.) I can't seem to add the films I have downloaded onto iPad to iTunes. If I could do that, I could erase them from iPad to create more storage.
This is intensely confusing, sorry.

Question.....
"I own an iPhone4, an iPod 3rd generation and an iPad 2. I use the same iTunes library but unfortunately synced iPad with a different computer before syncing to my own. Do I risk losing the films/apps I've downloaded onto my iPad if I sync with my iPod?"
Answer.....
Yes you will lose the films that you downloaded to the iPad when you sync with your own iTunes unless you transfer the purchases into your own iTunes library. Were these movies that you purchased? If so, you might be able to download them again for free. Do you have multiple computers that you sync from or is this someone else's purchased content?
You can select whatever you want to sync to all of your devices in iTunes, you do not have to sync the same content to all device.

How do I transfer my video's from my computer to my iphone and ipod touch?

How do I transfer video's from my computer to my iphone and ipod touch?

First of all..you need to make sure your videos are all in formats your iPod/iPhone can play.... eg .mp4. If they are not in that format... you will need to convert them using a video converter like http://videoconverter.hamstersoft.com. It has a very easy to use interface. Once all your videos are in the proper format, go to iTunes and them using File -> Add File / File -> Add Folder.
Then connect your iPhone/iPod go to the Movies tab on your Phone's page and select Sync All Movies.
Now, select apply to the bottom right and corner of iTunes and your phone should synchronize videos..
