HT2106 I downloaded my itunes library to my iphone 4S and now I am almost up to capacity.  Any suggestions on how to free up space without deleting the itunes library?  I also just backed up my phone to iCloud

How do I free up space on my iphone 4S?

Drag it from the Music item of the Finder's sidebar to an external drive, launch iTunes with the Option key held down, and point it there.

    Did you fail to import your photos before updating?  If so, then they are likely gone.  You can try restoring from backup.  If that fails then they are gone.  You should regularly import photos to your computer, most especially before any update.
    Did you fail to transfer any purchases on iphone ( that were not on your computer) to your computer before updating?  If so, then you will have to redownload:

    Is it still charging if you connect it to the adapter? If yes, let it charge for about 10min, then connect to your computer in recovery mode, explained in this article:

    I used disk permission repair to try to resolve this as well as a 'soft' restart. Still have a grayed-out mute checkbox in the sound section of system preferences.

    iMessage and FaceTime went down yesterday for some people. Mine is still down. My iMessage is saying the same thing about being activated. Sounds like you are still down too. Ignore the status page that says everything is fine - it lies.

  • I restored my phone from a previous back up and now all my apps are gone. Any idea on how to get them back?

    I had liquid damage to my phone and had to receive a new one so I went home to restore it to its old settings from my back up on 5/8/11. I've had an iphone since 2008 so I have a lot of data and apps saved on to my computer, many of which I paid for. When my back up finished all my music, contacts, photos were restored but none of my apps. Can someone please help me get them back? Thank you!

    After you restore from backup, you MUST sync to restore your iTunes content. No iTunes content is included in the iPhone backup. Your apps should be in your iTunes library, just sync them back to your phone. If for some reason your apps are not in your library, you can re-download them for free:

  • After sharing computer with my partner, he backed up his phone and now our address books have been merged. Is there an easy way to separate them? The cloud automatically adds new contacts to both our phones etc.

    A while back, My partner asked if he could back up his phone on my macbook. Ever since our address books have been merged. there are so many duplicates it's  madness as if we both have a friend by the same name perhaps with no surname it's easy to call the wrong one.
    Is there a way to identify the root of each contact so we can separate them.
    Thank you for any solutions.

    hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music'  then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

  • I currently have Firefox 3.6.16 on my macbook pro. It is constantly crashing. I checked and there is 4.0 available. I tried downloading it and it's taking almost an hour? Any suggestions?

    As I said 3.6.16 keeps crashing. I thought I downloaded an update a few days ago and this started. But when I looked for the latest version I found there is 4.0. I am currently downloading it but so far I've only downloaded 19.0 of 26.8 MB in the last half hour. It says it's only downloading at 3.1KB/sec which is quite slow.
    Does anyone out there know why it may be crashing and does 4.0 solf this?
    Again, I'm on a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X version 10.6.7.
    Thanks in advance for any support.

    In my case it seems that Firefox just doesn't "see" (or can't find?) the coupon printer application anymore after the FF update. (and yes, my add-ons are enabled - to answer the tech support people's first question).
    For me, the coupon printer doesn't even show up in my Firefox "Add-Ons" list anymore. Is that what people typically see when they're saying the coupon printer "doesn't work" with FF? The coupon printer was visible on the add-ons list before my FF update, and now it's totally Gone! It seems that Firefox just doesn't "see" (or can't find?) the coupon printer application anymore since the FF update.
    When I'm on the coupons.com site and I click "print coupons", it tells me I haven't installed the application. But it Is installed on my computer, I can see it in my folders, and it works on IE, so it's definitely there.
    BTW - I have uninstalled/reinstalled the coupon printer application. I have tried all the suggestions on the Mozilla help/forum sites, as well as the Coupons.com web site. I have closed and re-started Firefox after the installation. I have also shut down and restarted my pc after installation. I tried installing the application with Firefox open, and tried it again with Firefox closed. I've even cleared out all my cookies/history associated with Coupons.com.
    ... I can't think of anything else to try, except for the "solution" of using IE for coupons.
    If it Really is a problem on the Coupon.com end of things, do you think it's worth it if we bombard the coupons.com support team with messages saying they need to fix the problem? (or just a waste of time?) ;(

  • How do I add music from a music cd on a MacBook Pro?  Up until this morning I got a window that asked me if I wanted to record or play the cd I just inserted.  Now that window no longer appears.  Any suggestions on how to rectify this?

    How do I record music from a music cd to my MacBook Pro?  Up until this morning I would get a pop up window that asked if I wanted to play or record the disc I just put in.  That screen no longer appears - a disk starts to play.  I can stop the auto play but how do I add the music to my existing music collection?
    Thanks

    Do you mean "how do you rip a CD to iTunes?" If so, just insert the CD into the optical drive of the MBP, launch iTunes, edit the ID3 tags to show what you want, then click the "import" button in the lower right corner of the window.

  • An updated favicon is not visible also after a page reload! How can this be done without deleting the full browser cache?

    I updated the favicon on a homepage.
    I reloaded the page in firefox but the old favicon remains.
    I do not want to delete the whole cache of the browser. A page reload should be enough because other users will not delete the cache to get the new favicon.

    Did you try a reload with a cache bypass?
    You can reload the page and bypass the cache with:
    * Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
    * Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    * Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
    See [[Keyboard shortcuts]] and [[Mouse shortcuts]]
    If you have bookmarked that site then try to remove all bookmarks (open the bookmarks in tabs, click the yellow star and click the Remove button). Then try to reload all pages and create new bookmarks if that works. You may need to close and restart Firefox. You can also use Forget About This Site in the History right-click context menu but that will remove everything relating to that site, including saved passwords and exceptions.

  • HT4528 My phone was charging and now it won't power on. Any suggestions?

    I was charging my phone last night and was at 79% before I went to bed.  This morning the screen is black.  It won't power on.  I also connected it with my laptop that has itunes and it was not found.  Has anyone had this problem?  How do you fix it?

    I found other posts that recommended holding the on/off power button and the home button at the same time until the Apple logo appears and disappears.  Then you can power the phone on.  This worked for me!

  • Downloaded a file from safari on iphone 4 and now can't find it

    Help please?

    Without jailbreaking, there is no way to explore your phone's file contents on your actual iPhone.
    If you hook up to a computer, you may be able to use a program like iExplorer and find the file somewhere in there. But if you aren't jailbroken, you won't get root access, which may cause problems.
    I'd probably just bookmark whatever page you found it on and e-mail it to yourself so you can download it on the computer. Easiest method.

  • TS4443 I tried to download the latest app for IBooks, it won't download and now I can't use IBooks.  Any suggestions?

    The app shows the download bar at the bottom but nothing is happening. My app button is also grayed out.

    I will request that your query be relocated to the iPhoto forum where knowledgeable iPhoto users will be able to assist you.
