HT204150 i was told to use itunes to sync my contacts because they are not saving in icloud
I have been using icloud to save contacts, but for some reason when I checked recently, only some contacts were in my icloud account. It stopped awhile ago. Someone at my iphone verizon store said I should use itunes for contact storage. How and help please.
Contacts and Calendars are synchronised via iCloud only in OS 10.9 and later. Older OSX you can sync with iTunes.

This possible? == use iTunes to sync your contacts to Macbook contacts?
Hi guys,
As I am unable to sync my contacts from Mobileme to my contacts in my macbook (my earlier post), a possible solution I was thinking of is if I am able to use iTunes and sync the contacts from my iphone into my contacts on my Macbook.
Is this possible and if so, can you tell me the steps please.... a million thanksNo. The iPhone stores no data on a sim card, thus there is no way to do what you want using iTunes.

I have purchased songs from itunes on my ipad but now they are not there anymore. How can they get them back? Dont come up in songs not on this ipad and in itunes it asks to buy again
If you are now in the US then you can only use the US store, so you should update the address on your account
Changing country : Change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account.
Had you copied the songs over to your computer's iTunes library, do they show in the Music section on it ? You can copy purchases that you still have on your iPad over to your computer's iTunes library via the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option -
Hi. I just got the iPhone 6, plugged into itunes and made the mistake of putting an OLD back up on my new phone resulting in losing all contacts after 2013. They are not saved on the cloud. Is there any way to go back to before I screwed up?
If you have performed a sync with the device since you restored this old backup, then don't bother looking for another backup. iTunes writes over the last backup each time you sync. If you were handling contacts in iCloud, you would find them by logging into iCloud. Or you can check settings and iCloud and see if the button it on for Contacts. Otherwise it might have been on the computer, if you had a program that syncs with iTunes and handles contacts, depending on the computer system you use. If Windows, it would be Windows Contacts or Outlook. If a Mac, there is a Mac Address book as well.

I was trying to sync my itouch with my new mac, and some songs won't download because they are not authorized for this computer. But even after my computer was authorized they still won't sync. How do I fix this?
I have the same problem. It is only with tv shows and only with programs I have downloaded after the software update.
Apple support sent me the above link too....but it doesn't solve the problem...my computer is authorized and the content is in my library and will play on my Mac air, but it will not sync the tv shows, it keeps saying my computer isn't authorized for it.
No answers here, but you are definitely not alone with this issue. -
Since I downloaded iTunes 11, I get a message when syncing my iPod that some of my songs were not copied because they are not authorized on this computer, I go to Store> Authorize This Computer, a message pops up telling me that this computer is already.
So I am unclear, did you purchase these songs or import them from a cd?
If you imported them and still have the CD try importing them again and see if they work the delete the others.
Or if you purchased from itunes re-dowwnload and see if they work. Maybe they are corrupted files and this should resove it. -
An apple representative told me its ok to buy a Ipad mini wifi cellular because they are NOT locked devices, I can just take the at&t chip out and put in another carrier. and it will work
I thought apple change the name from Wifi + 3G to Wifi + Cellular because it has features to work just like a cell. e.g. recive calls and text etc.
My question is can it really do that? or is their an app I can down load to received calls with the cellular data number and also send out calls? or sms messages? -
My phone has been restored using iTunes. All of my previous photo are downloaded. I'm unable to delete the photos from the phone - no trash bin. It has utilized all my storage and I'm unable to use any of my apps.
Hello there, Jeanne2919.
There is a great Knowledge Base article that is right up your alley:
iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
Specifically this section:
To delete synced photos and videos
In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Sync photos from."
On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Click Apply.
To delete Camera Roll photos and videos
There are two methods to delete items from the Camera Roll:
Import the Camera Roll to your computer, choosing to delete items after import.
or
Delete photos and videos from your device manually. Open the Photos application, open the Camera Roll, tap the Action button, tap each photo to select it, and tap the Delete button.
Note: For photos and videos you want to save for later, import them to your computer before deleting them from the Camera Roll.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,

i need to know whether or not i will still be able to get my contacts back if i reset my phone to factory specifications
If they are synced to iCloud and appear on icloud.com, they will reappear on your phone when you sign back into your account. As a precaution, you could use an app like My Contacts Backup to back them up before you restore if you wish. I would also recommend as a precaution that you import your camera roll photos and videos to your computer before restoring, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

Songs showing on my iPhone in iTunes, but when I unplug phone, they are not on the phone?
I have been trying to clean up my songs by correcting song names, albums, etc. I got through one artist, a total of 32 songs. I wiped all songs from my phone. All the songs are listed correctly in iTunes. I then drag and drop all songs (I manually control the music, because iTunes is just too complicated) on to my iPhone. ALL THE SONGS show that they are on my iPhone, in the iTunes window. When I uplug my phone and open up the Music app, only 27 of the 32 songs are there. Also, it breaks the albums apart. There should be 4 albums, not 6. What the **** is going on???? I am so sick of how complicated these Apple products are to use. Not to mention this is my 4th iPhone 5 in a year and a half..... It should be pretty simple to drag and drop songs on to my phone. Android is looking better and better each day!!!!!!
Before you unplug the phone you have to sync it with iTunes.

I HAVE CONTACTED ROBOFORM AND THEY TELLME THAT THESE TWO PROGRAMS ARE NOT COMPATIBLE AND I WOULD LIKE TO USE BOTH PROGRAMS. HOW DO I GET A VERSION OF FIREFOX BEFORE VERSION 4
I just tried to import photos and took a screen shot of the import settings. Does anyone see any problem with the destination settings? I think that after I took the online course on LR, all I did was uncheck the Into Subfolder: Lightroom Trial.
I also took a screen shot of the answer I got after the pictures "imported."I
If anyone has any ideas as to how to fix this, I sure would appreciate it. Thank you. -
When ripping some CDs to iTunes to then sync to my iPod classic, songs are not listed in proper sequence. Some are separated from CD and listed elsewhere, what gives??
You probably have you Itunes music set as list and not as albums. Go to view at the top of Itunes and check as albums.

saying "The feature you are trying to use is on a net work resource that is unavailable.

I bought some movies via itunes how do I take it off my computer and add it to the icloud?
Are you in a country where films can be redownloaded - the page that you posted from should list countries and where the different content types can be redownloaded. But even if you, not all countries have agreed to allow their films be redownloaded, and there is no guarantee that a film (or any other item) will remain in the store, so you shouldn't rely on being able to redownload them. You also can't add films and/or tv programmes to the cloud, whether an item appears there depends upon your country, the film studio, and if it remains in the store.
If you are in a country where films can be redownloaded, and those films are still in your store, then if they don't show in the cloud check to see if they care hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
