Thanks in advance

Have you had any luck with this? I want to do the same thing and my individual photo albums on my iPhone won't tranfer to my laptop or iPad....only the pictures.

I assume you mean on her iPad. Have you tried connecting on another network.

What version of iTunes are you running on your computer? You need to update to the current version.

I am the administrator on our family computer with 3 other member logins. I have downloaded the pages app but how can my other family members also use it on the same computer?

I am the administrator on our family computer with 3 other family member logins. I have downloaded the app for pages but how can I allow the other users access to it? I am a computer novice so i need some advice.

If Pages and the other applicatioins installed in the Applications in the root directory they can be used by everyone. By default all programs installed by the App store are installed in the Applications folder in the root. In other words, your family members should be able to use the programs. Can they not?

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

TS1314 need to delete photo album that is duplicated on my iPhone 4

I have 2 photo libraries that contain the same exact pictures, they each contain 2034 pictures in each album. Not sure how I accomplished this, but it hasn't been a problem until recently when my phone has dropped below a gig of free space and I cannot even upgrade to the newest OS version. Please help!!

Import to the computer and choose to delete from iphone /ipod / ipad. Then let the computer sync them from the pictures folder. You duplicates are one copy from camera roll and second that was transferred from the computer.
You can also uncheck to sync photos and hit apply to remove the computer set from the device. That doesn't solve the issue if you want to sync folder again later..

How can I download albums that were purchased on my iPhone, and I dont have my iPhone anymore?

I had my iPhone stolen and I had purchased two albums and did not get to sync my phone how do i retrive those albums?

The link provided for reloading music is currently US only
If you reside outside the US and don't have a backup you may be out of luck
All you can do is contact iTunes, no guarantee

How to retrieve deleted pictures from my ipod that were taken on my iphone but are now lost

Pictures taken on my iphone 5s were accidentally deleted. I did a reset and an ISO update but was unable to find the pictures. Many previous pictures were recovered but not the ones I wanted. I used a free trial of Dr. Fone for my 5s and the pictures were not there. I used the free trial (Dr. Fone) on my ipod and the pictures are there. My ipod has not been upgraded or reset. So how do I recover these pictures that are only showing up through Dr. Fone on my ipod that were taken on my iphone 5s?

Open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want to be on your iPhone, sync.

None of my album artwork was downloaded to my iPhone and iPad.

How do I get the artwork?

Hope this helps. Deselect "display album artwork," check apply. Then select "display album artwork," check apply. Depending on how many songs you have, it will take several minutes. If you have like 2400 songs, it will take 10 minutes.
I have a similar problem, except it is not with all my songs but for certain songs. I notice albums do not initially show album artwork if you add/change album artwork via the iPod. But if the album artwork is already added from the computer, mine displays just fine.
Edit: whoops, you already tried that, sorry

Can family members added as part of the Family Share feature of iOS 8 really erase other family members devices with the Find My iPhone feature?

I initiated a Chat session with Apple Support to see if this was really possible. The answer I got was that it DID seem possible at this time. If this is true, then Apple may want to look at giving the sharing device the option to disallow other family members from erasing that device remotely (or playing sound, entering lost mode).
I would be comfortable allowing my wife to lock my iphone or erase it remotely if needed, but I would not want any of my kids to have that ability.
Can somebody else confirm this could be done?

Just tested this. You have to enter the Apple ID Password for the device you are trying to remote erase. You CAN put the device in lost mode without the password, but you cannot initiate a remote wipe without the password for the device.

I have been sharing an apple ID and icloud with other family members. How do I change my iphone so as to create my own account?

I have been sharing I-cloud with other family members. How do I change my i-cloud setting on my i-phone so as to creare my own account?

If you want to keep your iCloud data, you would need to migrate your device and a copy of the data to a new account. To migrate to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; others keeping the account will not be effected by this), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data.
Once you are on your own account, you can go to icloud.com and manually delete any data you don't want in your account without effecting anyone else.

When I am home, calls to my iPhone 5 also go to my other family members' iPhones. How can I get this to stop happening?

Or better yet, create and use new Apple IDs for others in your household. You could always use different Apple IDs for iCloud services (like iMessage and FaceTime) and iTunes and App Store., but it's even easier to share purchased content now with Family Sharing.
