HT203511 Is there a way for me to get all 2,000 photos from my iphone onto the photos app on my macbook without having to delete anything? Currently it is only uploading the last 30 days.
I have had my macbook for a few months, but have not really taken full advantage of it. I am trying to get my phone to communicate with my computer so my photos will be in two locations. I just set up the photos app on my computer, but it will only upload the last 30 days.
Have you considered using iCloud Photo Library instead of Photo Stream? See iCloud Photo Library FAQ - Apple Support
The following quote from that link has instructions on how to turn it on:
If you want to turn on iCloud Photo Library on all of your devices, follow these steps:
In iOS 8.3 or later, go to Settings > iCloud > Photos, then turn on iCloud Photo Library.
In OS X 10.10.3 or later, go to System Preferences > iCloud > Options next to Photos, then select iCloud Photo Library.

Hello can someone help me I have an iphone 4 and my daughter has an ipod touch we are on the same email address but somehow with in the last 25hrs all of my contacts are gone and only hers on on my phone is there a way for me to get all my contacts back?
If you need assistance with finding any of your restores or attempting to restore from any that happened prior to his incident follow this article
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
IF you do find a backup that has your contacts; I'd /highly/ recommand turning off your wifi network after the restore is finished because if the issue is with your iCloud your contacts may merge back with her's.
With iCloud you DO NOT want to share the account; bad things happen Evil evil thigns...
But in all seriousness; if two devices have the same iCloud; iCloud is told to merge and sync infomation between hte two and can't tell that it doesn't belong to the same person -
Not all of my photos on my iphone are showing up on the stream on my computer. How do I get all the photos from my iphone onto my photo stream on my PC?
Use a third-party utility such as Phone to Mac - Pod to Mac.

I've recently purchased an iPhone after years of using a Blackberry. Is there a way for me to transfer all my contacts directly
Your wireless provider should be able to do that at one
of their retail locations.
If not, you need to get the information from the blackberry to the
appropriate program in your computer (for example Outlook on
a PC, Contact on a Mac) and then when you connect your iPhone
to that computer and open iTunes, you will be given a choice to
sync that data from the computer to your iPhone.
If you can get the information from your blackberry to google contacts,
you can sync to iPhone from there. -
I lost my iPhone a few days ago and I put it on the lost mode. I don't want to give up looking for it. If a person stole it, is there a way for them to get into it or is it locked? I don't want to give up!!! But if there is a way that they could get in and take over my phone with a new number without me deactivating the iPhone and activating a different phone with my number.
lost mode don't depend of the sim card. If you take your Iphone on Lost mode... anybody can use it with the original card sim or with an other one.
Did you try to localise it ?
But hope that thief don't make a restore of the Iphone... Call your Mobile Operator to try to block the IMEI Number. -

Ive already payed for iMovie on my phone, and it wants me to pay again for it on my macbook. Is there a way for me to get it without paying again?
The iOS and Mac versions of iMovie are in effect separate programs (coded completely differently for the two operating systems) and have to be purchased separately.

I recently gave my old iPhone to my nephew, I did not clear out my old phone before I gave it to him, when he transferred to his account, he had my iCloud info on the phone, and it updated the contacts on my new iPhone 5 to his contacts. Is there any way for me to get my contacts back?
This is caused by using the same iCloud account on both phones. When you do this any data you sync with the shared iCloud account such as contacts is merged and will appear on all devices connected to the account. To fix this you both need to have separate iCloud accounts (you can continue to share the same Apple ID for purchasing from the iTunes and app stores).
Decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account. On the one that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll.
Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (i.e., deleting your nephew's data from your account, and vice versa).
As for recovering your lost contacts, if they aren't on icloud.com when you check from your computer, you will have to recover them from a backup source. You could try restoring to your last backup but this doesn't always work for contacts. (Chances are you nephew deleted your contacts from his phone, not realizing it would also delete them from yours.) -
I have an external hard drive of the brand Western Digital.
Before I got my iMac I moved a lot of my important files from my PC to the hard drive and today I went on and connected it to my iMac to move my files over to it.
When it had connected a window popped up that asked if I wanted to use this hard drive with the program Time Machine and create backups. Without thinking it trough enough and reading the warning properly (I'm stupid I know) I clicked "yes". I then realised how stupid it was and cancelled the formatting of the hard drive. But somehow the program still managed to delete all my important files and can't find any way to get them back. Neither can I connect the hard drive to my PC anymore so I can't check if the files are still there (which I doubt they are since I can't see them on my iMac either).
And now I wonder: is there any way for me to get back my lost files or are they lost forever?
Thank you in advance!
//GinaA data recovery specialist or some data recovery programs should be able to help. Most format simply rewrite the directory tree saying no files are on this disk. The bits that represent the files are still flipped appropreiately so they still exists, you just don't have the location info to get at them. Secure formats and erases rewrite each bit to a zero or 1 or random so the data is then truely gone. This type of format takes a long time to complete.
I'm not making a recomendation of a particular program but here is one company that does what you ask:
http://www.remosoftware.com/mac-recovery The cost is pretty high but I'm sure they don't sell many copies and need to cover their development costs.
Good luck and don't write anything on the freshly formatted disk until you decide what to do. -
Is there any way for me to get my music off of my iPod? I had to get a new computer and no longer have my files, most of it is cds...
Your iPod can only be synced with one computer at a time. If you try to sync it with a new computer/iTunes library, it will replace the contents of the iPod with whatever is in the new library. You should probably disable the autosync functionality first by going to Edit -> Preferences, clicking the Devices tab, and enabling the prevent iPods,iPhones, and iPads from automatically syncing option.
Before doing anything else, authorize the new computer with your iTunes Account. In iTunes, choose Store -> Authorize This Computer and enter in the correct credentials. Either copy a backup file from your old computer to your new one or create a new backup of your iPod in iTunes before letting it sync.
Then right->click on your iPod Touch from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes and choose Backup. You might also want to take a look at this article to see what it all included in the backup.
iOS: How to back up
Now onto synced content such as music, videos, photos, etc. For iTunes purchases you can copy them back into iTunes by choosing File -> Transfer Purchases. For all other nonpurchased iTunes content, see this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
Once the backup has been made and all other synced content such as music, videos, and photos are back in your iTunes library, restore your iPod from that backup you made earlier. Here is more on backing up and restoring your iPod.

If you do happen to lose any purchased content, you can always redownload it from the iTunes Store again at no cost via iCloud. See this article for information.

Is there any way for me to get a 5th generation ipod touch 16gb with both cameras?
i really wanna get an ipod touch 5th generation but i also want the forward and out facing cameras, and for me $200 is already kind of expensive for me, let alone $300, is there any way for me to get an ipod 5th gen without the extra $100?
Like JEM24 said, Certified Refurbished is an Apple item which has been used but been checked over and (if necessary) repaired.
Also, the iPod Touch 4th Generation is 3 years old and cannot get iOS 7 - meaning some apps can't run on it.
Once again, here is the certified refurbished link: http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals/ipod/ipod_touch

I really need to find a way to get into my iPod without having to delete anything. (Note: my home button and power button don't work and I haven't synced anything at all)
No. You have to restore and thus erase the iPod. You have to options:
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
- Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs and then restore via iTunes:
