HT1688 How do I check past iPhone accounts on iTunes?

I think my son stole my old phone and I need to know if this is my old phone or really his.  How do I find out?  I don't have the orignal box anymore?

Hello talgreen,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iOS: How to back up and restore your content

How to back up
iTunes can create backups of your iOS device when you:
Sync with iTunes (disabled if you have iCloud backup turned on)
Right-click (or Control-click) the iOS device in iTunes under Devices and choose Back Up
Use these steps to manually back up your iOS device using iTunes:
Connect your iOS device to a computer with the latest version of iTunes installed.
Click the File menu and select Devices > Back up.
Best of luck,
Mario

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
    For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.

    How do I add an Iphone to my iTunes account

    Hello Willart1,
    It sounds like you would like to associate your iPhone to your iTunes Store account. This article should help you do that:
    iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627
    Open iTunes.
    Sign in to your Apple ID by choosing Store > Sign In from the iTunes menu.
    Choose Store > View My Account from the iTunes menu.
    From the Account Information screen, click Manage Devices.
    Next to each device or computer name, you will be able to see when each device or computer was associated with your Apple ID. You will also be able to track how many days remain before your associated devices or computers can be associated with a different Apple ID.
    Note: If no devices have been associated with the Apple ID, then the Manage Devices section will not be visible.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

    No sorry. You need to upgrade to v10.5 Leopard (minimum) in order to sync an iPhone 4.

    Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
    Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
    iTunes 10.1 or later
    iTunes Store account
    Internet access

  • Iphone account on itunes on old computer, moving to new computer

    I have my Iphone account on itunes on my old computer, and I'm about to buy a new computer. When i get my new computer what will i do to keep my iphone up to date. I'm afraid that when i plug it in it won't know what plan i signed up for and nothing will work. I was wondering if there is anything i need to know in moving from one computer to the next with my account on my itunes on the old computer?

    Get an external Hard drive.
    Go into the music file and copy and paste the file into the external drive.
    Very simple to do.
    When you get your new computer, plug in the external. locate it and copy and paste everything from that file into your music file. then open itunes and viowla! =] (excuse the spelling on viowla!)
    Anyway.. On your older PC you MUST de-authorize the computer!!! Go into iTunes and there is an option on the toolbar.... - In View or store or something... In on of those there is an option which says " De-Authorize computer" or something...
    once you do that you'll be good to go! =]
    Hope i helped!!! =] =] =] =] =] =]

    See if this user-tip for syncing to a new computer helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
    If you have music from other sources on your phone (e.g. copied from CDs) and you don't have them on a backup, then there are some program listed half-way down this page which might be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • HT4623 how do i sync my iphone with new itunes? I cant find the sync button

    how do i sync my iphone with new itunes? I cant find the sync button

    The same way you would sync with any other version of iTunes.
    Connect the device. 
    Select the device.
    Select Sync.
    In the new version of iTunes, the sidebar is disabled by default.  With a device connected, it will be listed in the upper right hand corner.
    If you want the side bar back, type Cntrl + S.
