How to transfer from iPad and iPhone to new iMac

I just purchased a new iMac, my iPhone will not sync or does not display in iTunes. Can I transfer songs, media and photos from my iPad, iPhone and iPod to my new Mac? Also, on my crashed computer (with no back up drive) has all my iTunes purchases, how do I retrieve them again from iTunes?
Elizabeth Eggert

Elizabeth,
on your new iMac start iTunes and log in to the iTunes Store (Store menu) using the same Apple ID as on the broken old Mac.
Then authorize this new Mac and select the iTunes Store. On the righthand side, you should see a section labelled Music or similar and below that a link to your purchased items. Clicking that link sends you to a list of all items purchased with your Apple ID.
Good luck, Andreas

      just launch the App Store App
        tap on Purchased at the bottom of the page.
          tap on particular Apps you want to download and install..
    for other items
      launch the Settings App
        scroll left pane down a bit, just below Privacy
          tap on iCloud
            Turn on iCloud sharing for particular items
              Contacts, Calendars, Mail, Safari (favorites)
    Turn on iCloud sharing on your old devices and your new devices.
      Wait 10 or 15 minutes, or so depending on your WiFi network..
        You should start to see these shared items appear on your new device..
    You can turn iCloud sharing off on your old devices (and new device)
      after you are confident enough items have transferred.

    how to connect my iPad and iPhone to my new apple tv ?

    Also, make sure that all devices are on the same Wi-Fi network (e.g. not on a "guest" connection), and verify the ATV settings to see that AirPlay (and HomeSharing while you're at it) are turned on.

  • I have an Ipad and Iphone but I don't have an Airprint, only a WIFI printer,my question is if I connect the wifi printer to Airport express, can I print from Ipad and Iphone ?

    I have an Ipad and Iphone but I don't have an Airprint at home but only a WIFI printer, my question is if I connect the wifi printer to Airport express, can I print from Ipad and Iphone ? Please help me if anyone knows about this.

    Unfortunately, connecting a non-AirPrint-enabled printer to an AirPort base station's USB port will not make it AirPrint-ready.
    You will need to use another solution, like Printopia, to be able to print to this printer from an iOS device.

    Because they are two separate devices.

  • I'm getting a message that my iCloud storage is almost full (5.0 GB, 186 mb remaining).  I have transferred all photos from iPad and iPhone to Mac.  I've deleted all but 200 photos on each of these devices.  Data storage is still same.

    I have transferred all photos from iPad and iPhone to Mac.  I have deleted almost all photos from both (about 200 remaining on each).  I do not store tunes or videos.  After making these changes, I still have the same message in iCloud.

    Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage > Select your device (listed as 'This iPhone' or 'This iPad') then look at the next backup size.  Compare the 'Next Backup Size' to the 'Backup Size' on taht same screen.  If the next backup size is smaller, then you have successfully removed some content from your device.
    Now the question still lingers as to why your iCloud is still showing so full right?  Well, iCloud keeps the last 3 backups from each device.  It doesn't duplicate them, but it uses an incremental backup system.  So basically your device's backup will take up as much space on iCloud as the largest backup of the last 3 backups.  With that being said, your iPhone and ipad will eventually shrink the size of your backup (if that next backup size is smaller) in about 3 days (3 backups assuming your iOS devices backup once as day when you are sleeping).
    Can I expedite this?  Well of course you can.  If you want, you can Delete the backup from both of the devices via that same screen then go back to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup, turn iCloud Backups back on, then backup now.  Keep in mind that if you do this, it will clear out your last 3 backups (and cannot be undone), but it may also take a long while for your iPhone and iPad to complete that inital backup after deleting the old backups.
    I hope this helps. (My Recommendation: Basically check what's in paragraph one, then it will works itself out in a few days.)

  • Just the other day I try to put an event into icalendar but it won't appear on screen.  When I go to my iPad and iPhone the "New Event" appears on these but I can't see where to add info on my MacBook Pro.  Can anyone help?

    Just this week I am unable to see info I am trying to add to my iCalendar.  But when I look at my iPad and iPhone the "New Evnt" appears.  Because it doesn't look like there is anything on my MacBook Pro can't enter appointments.  Any help is appreciated.

    This can be caused by a number of issues.
    Was everything working and then suddenly stopped??
    Or is this a new clean setup and has never worked.
    Do you have a cable modem which is not a router and the TC setup in bridge? That will cause it. The TC must be in router mode, ie dhcp and nat.
    Check the IP the MBP gets including dns and gateway..
    Then check the ipad/iphone.. post what IP dns and gateway (router in applespeak) they get.

  • HT201335 AirPlay Mirroring is working from iPad and iPhone, but not from Macbook Pro.  How to fix?

    I can see and activate AirPlay Mirroring from Macbook but nothing displays on the TV when mirroring is activated (screen changes from Apple TV menu to blank screen only).  I have 3rd generation Apple TV and a brand new Macbook Pro, so AirPlay Mirroring is supported by both devices.  I can display video content on the TV from my MacBook from iTunes by selecting to display on Apple TV instead of my computer, but it does not work for mirroring.
    For reference, when I activate AirPlay Mirroring from iPad or iPhone, it works perfectly and content is displayed on my TV.
    Has anyone else had this problem and know how to fix it?
