HT1386 New laptop Help needed

I just bought a new laptop and am trying to sync my iPhone with it.  How do I do this?

Copy everything from your old laptop to your new laptop. Don't have any backup...bad idea...follow the instructions here:

  • Urgent Iphone with new laptop help needed!

    ok so i did a fresh reinstall of leopard on my macbook without thinking about syncing my iphone.
    now whenever i plug my iphone into my laptop it thinks its a camera and opens image capture and asks me what photos i want to download off it. It wont show up on the desktop or in itunes.
    I have all the music, apps etc backed up on my machine. i do not however have backups of my contacts!
    i have a backup of the iphone in itunes, but i cant get to a point of restoring the phone to the back up i have, as plugging it in does nothing.
    there is a setting to erase all content and settings on the iphone, will this render it as if i had just bought it out of the shop, meaning i can resync with my 'new' laptop?
    HELP!

    I managed to fix it myself in the end, with a slight work around. once i had reinstalled leopard, i noticed a utility called migration assistant. I used that to transfer my old user account off my time machine and restore all the settings etc. now my iphone syncs with my laptop again. hoorah!
    Interestingly, i tried the migration assistant when installing leopard (the whole 'setting up your computer' process) but it refused to do anything. I would tell it what to restore from time machine, it would accept, and then sit there with an empty progress bar that did not move all night. And i mean all night!

    You cannot, nor do you need to, until you reach the limit of 5.  Once you reach 5, then you can deauthorize all, and then authorize the active computers.

    Hello,
    Thank you for posting in the HP Support Forum.
    Your computer comes with Win 8 pre-installed but one of the steps to install/run Windows 8.1 is having updated drivers for Windows 8.1
    Please, go to Control Panel -> System (or Start -> type winver and open) and verify what is your current version - if it is Windows 8 or 8.1
    Windows 8 is version  6.2.x
    Windows 8.1 is version  6.3.x
    If Windows 8 in place, then , please read this article and enroll in the steps:
    http://www8.hp.com/us/en/pdf/instruct_update_win8.​1_EN_tcm_245_1508074.pdf
    Update to the latest drivers prior and post installation respectively for win 8/8.1 :

  • How much Ram do I need? (getting a new laptop, help me please!)

    Hi!
    So I'm in the market for a new laptop since my current one can't manage at all.
    I've found an MSI laptop that I really want :
    http://www.msi.com/product/nb/GS70-STEALTH.html#specification
    It's a gaming laptop but it's got all the specs I've been looking for and the thiness and lightness of it is just astounding.
    The only problem is that it's only able to have 16 GB of RAM, will this be enough?
    I mostly use Premiere pro cs6 where I'm confident that 16 GB will be enough, I'm a bit worried about After effects cs6 though. I don't use AE everyday and when I do it's as a hobby but I do still sometimes use it quite a bit, at the same time as running Premiere. And once I get a laptop that can actually handle AE I will probably start using it more.
    So what do you think, will 16 GB of Ram be enough?
    I am currently using a laptop with only 6 GB (and it's a nightmare, although the other specs of this laptop aren't really worth smiling about either)
    I would really appreciate any and all help!
    /Lisa

    > I just recently realised that the graphic cards in all of the laptops I've been looking at are not supported by neither Premiere pro cs6 nor After effects cs6.
    That is not a correct characterization.
    The GPUs that you list are supported for use by these applications.
    In the case of After Effects, there is one---and only one---feature that doesn't work on the cards that you list... and it's a feature that you don't need to worry about: GPU acceleration of the ray-traced 3D renderer. That's all.
    Put differently:
    "IMPORTANT: A common misconception is that After Effects requires CUDA features of one of a specific set of Nvidia GPUs. That is not true. Only the GPU-accelerated ray-traced 3D renderer requires this. The other GPU features work on any GPU that meets certain basic requirements, including AMD and Intel GPUs. See below for details."
    (from this page: GPU (CUDA, OpenGL) features in After Effects CS6 and After Effects CC)
    The case of Premiere Pro is only somewhat different. You can use all of the features in the application; it's just that some of them will be faster with a certain GPU. Details:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/premierepro/2011/02/cuda-mercury-playback-engine-and-adobe-premiere -pro.html
    Also, the CC versions of these applications allow you to use any GPU that meets certain requirements for the features described above. It is here that you do enter into "unsupported" territory, because enabling the usage of the GPU for these features can put the system into an untested and unsupported state.

  • Trouble with new G570 - help needed

    Dear All,
    I am a new, rather unhappy, customer of Lenovo UK as of this week, via a dealer called www.saveonlaptops.co.uk .
    I'm terribly disappointed to have had such a bad experience...
    I purchased a Lenovo G570 (product code M5143UK)  from the above vendor on their website using my credit card on 17th July 2011...
    I eagerly awaited delivery on 19th July 2011.
    Unfortunately, upon setting up the laptop and switching it on, it became quite clear that there are hardware issues with the laptop.
    It took me 3 hours to get the laptop working, after it repeatedly attempted to install/configure software and OS updates and repeatedly failed midway through often shutting down of its own accord too early to allow update to complete.
    3 hours after, I had got it working, but immediately noticed how SLOW the laptop is...The 3 year old Dell laptop I sold last week ran much much faster than this Lenovo ever has.
    The boot time averages over 2 minutes just to get to login screen, and applications are unacceptably slow loading/running.
    I had spoken with Lenovo UK support whom suggested that it should run no slower with a retail version of Windows 7 64-bit OS on it, which at the consent of them, I duly installed.  Unfortunately, a further 4 hours of waiting for repeatedly failing OS updates to install took place, before this version of Windows 7 (clean install) ran even worse than the original OS image. 
    Lenovo UK support have said that I need to return the laptop to the vendor to be assessed, but the vendor is currently refusing to accept any come back as such, and saying that due to the clean install carried out (at the consent of your support guys remember) that they will not return and swap for a brand new like-for-like laptop.
     I have been assured previously by Lenovo that clearing a partition off of the HDD and applying a fresh install will not invalidate warranty...!!!!!!!!!
    I have never received such poor service from a hardware vendor or a how manufacturer, especially seeing as I had fully researched the brand/model I was to purchase for weeks prior to final purchase.
    I am writing to your goodself in the hope that you can arrange for a brand new laptop of the same spec to be sent to me, and arrange for the courier to collect the faulty one at the same time to stop me being without a laptop.
    The vendor has been rude, unhelpful, dishonoring towards me and Lenovo and I wish I had not approached them to purchase this laptop.  The price though was £80 odd cheaper than with Lenovo direct.
    All I want is a non faulty laptop to last me 5 years before i change for a new Lenovo (if the service is good!) model.
    You will find a copy odf my order attached.
    I look forward to hearing from you soon.
    Kindest regards

    welcome to the forum,
    It's regrettable to read about your experiences to date, obviously not an invigourating experience, reads very much like a pillar to post scenario
    Firstly; a clean windows install does not invalidate the warranty regardless of what the reseller says. The warranty covers the hardware, unless explicity stated and purchased there is no warranty on software whatsoever.
    IMHO your first point of contact should have been the retailer to ask if they were in a position to offer a possible solution. Should they then have at some point instructed you to contact Lenovo support you would be in a stronger position to argue that they should resolve the issue. Whatever, you did the right thing by contacting support. Did support issue you with a call number which you noted down and could share? Against the call number there will be notes logged by the service rep. and you could ask the retailer to call and validate the instructions you were given by support.
    As this is a peer to peer forum, provided by Lenovo in order that members may seek assistance from others and share their experiences, there is a Lenovo presence which deals with some of the broader issues, it's not always possible for them to assist on all individual issues. Members will certainly be glad to and be able to assist you diagnose any possible hardware fault with the system which would then hopefully provide you with the facts you need to hopefully reach a speedy resolution.
    You're probably pretty miffed at the moment and don't want to read the following, but it's meant well.
    As a first step I'd like to suggest downloading the mediacreator from this site and use the media you create to test the system's hard drive, please let us know the results.
    Best Regards

  • Sync my iphone to new laptop HELP!!!

    i currently have my iphone synced to a PC at work but I have now purchased a new Laptop at home. Over the weekend I connected my iphone at home and downloaded the new update.. However I lost all my videos, films, music and apps.. So when I arrived at work this morning I had to re-sync my phone to retrieve them all. HELP!! How do i now get all of the above onto my home laptop as I no longer wish to use my work PC.. And don't want to lose all of my purchased items every time I connect at home.. (i am using the same account)

    Back up your media in iTunes and restore iTunes on your new HD again.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1382
    As for the contacts, set up one contact and one event in your calendar before you connect your iphone for the first time to Vista. Then your contacts and calendar will be merged with your first sync.

  • I have a new laptop and need to sync my itune library with it ... how do i do this ?

    I have not backed up my itune library from previous laptop and have a new laptop. Got a new iphone which has all my music but since i bought a new laptop and want to sync my music on iphone with my new lapotp... how do I do this ?

    the proper way is to transfer your itunes library from the old laptop and resync your iPhone to the new computer.
    It will erase the iPhone and load it again from the new laptop.
    If you do not have access to your old laptop and the iTunes library...
    well there are ways of getting things off iPhone but you need to google for third party software to do it.

  • I have the Photoshop CS2 in an old laptop and recently purchased a new laptop.  Need to move it.

    I have my new laptop and my Photoshop CS2 is no longer supported.   How do I tranfer to the new laptop with the upgraded version.  - Brian Robertson

    Adobe has disabled the activation server for CS2 products so you can't use your own serial key.
    You will have to download CS2 and use the serial provided on this page...
