    Connect to your computer and open iTunes. Look for your iPod under the Devices heading in iTunes sidebar. Select the name field and rename it as you would any file.
    If you don't have a sidebar showing then select Show Sidebar from iTunes View menu.

  • Iphone 5 will not charge, tried 3 different cables and none of them work on my phone but do on other iPhone 5's

    Iphone 5 will not charge, tried 3 different cables and none of them work on my phone but do on other iPhone 5's. All 3 cables are genuine Apple cables.

    Sounds like the dock port on your iPhone has a problem. It is in warranty so you will need to get it serviced.

    If you didn't set up Find My iPhone in the iCloud settings, then you can't. Notify the police and change the password to your Apple ID and any other online services you used from that iPhone, just as a precaution.

    Have new iPhone 5s and older iPad ( looking to buy new iPad ) question for both is should I hook them up to y computer and back up the computer on each devise and sink and than the next one.  The second question is should I do the I pad first cause it has photos in my email that have not been downloaded and it is one of or is the first model

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

  • I have a 4s and i am trying to get my photos off my phone and back onto my computer. any advice?

    I have a 4s and i am trying to get the photos off of my phone and back onto my computer.... i am not able to delete these photos (only the ones in the camera roll can i delete )   if anyone has any helpful tips they would be appreciated. thank you

    Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process cannot be deleted direct on the iPhone.
    Photos transferred from the computer are optimized for viewing on the iPhone – the original resolution of these photos is reduced, and the reason transferring these photos in the opposite direction is not supported. Photos transferred from your computer should be included with your computer's backup along with all other important data
    Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process are removed from your iPhone in the same way. To remove all photos that were transferred from your computer, deselect sync photos under the photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by sink.

  • I just bought and backed up my computer and time machine with a "Seagate BackUp Plus for Mac". Now my time machine is empty. Panicked. can anyone help?

    I just bought and backed up my computer and time machine with a "Seagate BackUp Plus for Mac". Now my time machine is empty. Panicked. can anyone help?

    Lets start over...
    Please restart the network.. shut down everything..
    Restart in order.. modem.. router.. if different to TC.. or TC.. client devices.. wait 2min between each startup.
    If the TC does not show up on the computer, in finder.. then we need more info.. what OS are you running?
    Does the TC show up in Airport utility? Are you running wireless or ethernet?
    If you still have issues.. plug the TC directly into the computer by ethernet.
    Do a full factory reset of the TC.. and see if it now shows up.
    Please tell us exactly what model TC it is and how old.. the A1xxx model number from the base will help if you don't know.
    You take a screen shot of the TC opened in finder.
    eg..
    My TC is named Tardis4.. click on it.. and then open the data folder.. on this one called Tardisdata.
    Then take a screen shot of it so we can see what the problem is.. screenshot.. with area selection.. control + shift + 4 .. the picture goes into the desktop.. and then you click the picture icon in the posting web page controls and select the picture.

  • I had to restore my iPad recently and in opening Pages again found that even though I synced my iPad and backed it up my files did not come over to the restored iPad. Is there any way of recouperating them? Thanks!

    working files aare not backed up as far as I know. You must either 1)"copy to itunes", then use itunes to save as... to your desktop machine. Or 2) use iCloud to keep the docs.
    I also learned this the hard way. No way i know of to get the working docs back.

  • I have Firefox 7.0.1 and would like to go forward and back more than one page at a time- how do I set this?

    You can right click on the back or forward button and jump to your required page.

  • I changed my email address and password on my computer but my phone won't let me change my email that I use to sign in.  Should I click on 'delete account?'  It constantly asks me to sign it but I can't with the old email address.

    can i talk to someone on the phone?

    You can try contacting Apple here.

    You do know tht if you created a new Apple ID - that is different than changing the Apple ID. Apps are always tied to the ID that was used to make the purchase. If the old ID is popping up, it seems like that ID is rid to the apps indicating that you created a new ID. Of course, I could be wrong or misunderstanding what you're saying as well.
    If you go to Settings>iTunes & App Store, tap your old ID and sign out and then sign in with the new ID, that should be all that you need to do, if you changed the ID. If you created a new ID, that will not work.

    Does the software enable a group of users to scan to a selected computer by selecting it from the printer or can users scan by clicking a button on the software?
