    i have multiple devices backed up to the same computer each with different data. how do i keep them from syncing all data when i back up or transfer stuff from the computer to a device? one is an iphone 6 and the others are ipad mini first gens, each ipad has 64gb and the iphone has 128, need to keep the data seperate as they are not all mine

    Itunes content and pics are NOT part of the backup that itunes performs.

    You should transfer any purchases from iphone regularly:  File>Transfer Purchases  , if they fail to be transferred when you sync.
    You buy one and only one download.  It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your purchases.
    You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.

    You can't merge Apple IDs.  What you could do is set up your phone to use the same iCloud accout you are using on your Mac.  To do this, go to Settings>iCloud and turn all synced data (Contacts, Calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted, choose to keep the data on the phone.  When everything is off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Now add the iCloud account you set up on your Mac (with the same Apple ID) and turn syncing back on for Calendars, Contacts, etc.  When prompted, you will probably want to choose merge, to merge the data on your phone with the existing data on this iCloud account.

    yes, just make sure you turn off auto-sync to keep everything organized before you try syncing

    We have a 10 person office - all either use Acrobat XI or Reader XI.  One person is on Windows 7.  The rest are on Windows 8 (not 8.1).  I say this because I thought it was a Windows 8 issue, but having the same problems on the Windows 7 machine. We are all having problems opening pdf's sent to us from other firms. This has increased in frequency over the past two months. We've checked with the various firms, and their other clients are not having problems. Some pdfs open but with a lot of missing content and strange formatting, others won't open at all.  There are different error messaged depending upon the doc.  Some are regarding the fonts, for example "can't extract the embedded font...."  Others are "insufficient data" errors.  There are more, but for purposes of keeping this short, I won't include them.  Another unrelated issue is that we are having trouble printing excel files to pdf.  The files end up with bad formatting.  I've worked with adobe "chat" support, our IT consultants with no resolution.  I also haven't found any similar "known issue" online  Would very much appreciate any assistance.  Thank you

    The font embedding can be a problem if not done and you are trying to view the PDF and do not have the font on your machine. Acrobat will often try to find a replacement, but it is not always a good choice. Sometimes the "Use Local Fonts" button can be changed in state to resolve some of the viewing issues.
    If you are trying to copy or export info, then it is important that you have the fonts on your system. Otherwise, the message you are getting about embedded fonts would not be showing up.
    As for Excel formatting, be sure that the Adobe PDF printer is selected in the printer screen before you look for the paging and formatting of the file. In most OFFICE programs, if you change the printer the application will reflow the document to best match the printer (called "using printer metrics"). So check before you create the PDF that the layout is correct.

  • I only have one iTunes account.  The other day I made the mistake of downloading purchased songs and movies logged on another user account (Administrator) on the same computer.  How do I consolidate all my purchases in my preferred user account?

    I only have one iTunes account.  The other day I made the mistake of downloading purchased songs and movies logged on another user account (Administrator) on the same computer.  How do I consolidate all my purchases in my preferred user account?

    copy the songs that you downloaded as admin and put it somewhere you can access it from you're preferred account (usb stick / cd / shared folder / external hard drive) log into with you preferred user account and drag and drop the files on top of the itunes icon and they will be imported.
    if you have a second computer you could use home sharing to move the music from admin itunes to the second computer and from the second computer to the preferred itununes
    ps you can only connect 5 computers to you're itunes account so don't forget to de-autorise when you no-longer wand it.

  • I got a MacBook Pro, and a new iPod touch and downloaded everything through my iCloud. but now when i try to do anything on my ipod from my macbook, it says ipod is hooked to another account, even though its the same one! what do i do

    so what im exactly getting is 'the ipod "kira's ipod" is synched with another itunes library, do you want to erase this ipod and sync with this itunes library?'
    annnndd ummm, its the same itunes account that im using, and im just trying to put 2 videos on to my ipod without erasing all of my music.
    Everything in my MacBook has been downloaded through ICloud, and my IPod was set up from my grandmas desktop.. But its weird because i have had my IPod plugged in to my MacBook before, and downloaded music i believe, so i dont see why its doing it now... PLEASE HELP!
    i just need to know what to do so i can start proving to my family that apple really is a good company who doesnt just try to rip people off...

    - You can only sync an iPod to one iTunes library/computer. You can however, manually manage music and videos among different libraries.
    Go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
    - If y wnat to switch syncing libraries/computer see:
    go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.

    If all the synced media like music is in the iTunes library of the second computer it is very easy.

  • I have downloaded music from cd's onto my itunes on my computer, however we use the same computer for 2 iphones in our house and i cannot transfer music from the itunes on our computer to the second iphone, but its fine on the first? help?!

    I have an iphone 4 and my dad has a iphone 5s, we both use the same computer to sync to itunes and add music etc and therefore share a itunes library and just add our own music to our phones, but recently i havent been able to add music that is already in the itunes library for example from a cd, onto my iphone 4, i used to be able to use the typical 'drag and drop' method but now it jut doesnt work? it still works fine for my dad oh his iphone 5s but not for me? Any ideas on how i can transfer music?

  • Rented movie from iTunes, but now the same computer is "not authorized"

    I rented a movie from itunes.  Now I try to play it on the same computer and it won't play, it constantly asks me to authorize the computer (a little odd i'd say, since I downloaded it with the same exact account).  Then, when I select authorize this computer in iTunes, as predicted, it's already authorized.  Yet another problem with the iTunes store, another $4 stolen from me by apple.  My iTunes is up to date too.  What gives?  Another problem like this and I am def out of the apple ecosystem.

    Hello JGSA1,
    Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with the movie rental purchased from the iTunes Store.  It sounds like you are doing everything correctly, and I understand your frustration with the continuous prompts to authorize the computer. 
    I recommend the following the steps in the following article for an issue like this:

  • TS2446 If my iTunes account was shut down due to fraud activity why can I not use the same credit card if I choose to when I have no other way to pay

    When I turned in my iTunes account b/c fraud activity had been detected while my iPhone was not working so they disenabled my iTunes account but I got my new apple id back to download free games but I can't use my debit card anymore and want to use the same card as that is the only access I have as a form of payment

    You can give feed back to Apple from the iTunes drop-down menu in the iTunes menu bar..
