From your OLD computer...
Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..

    When I pre ordered my iphone 6 i was told I was going to get an additional 1 gig of data per month for a year.  It even shows it on the receipt i received with the phone.  When will I see that reflected on my account.  I have had my new phone for a week and used tons more data than usual and am hoping that will save me this month.

    concretedonkey, I'm glad you were able to take advantage of this offer when you ordered your new iPhone 6. I can certainly review your account to ensure this was added for you. Please reply to the direct message I have sent you.

  • I have had my I-Phone for about 13 months and when I did the upgrade I lost my wifi. Now I am paying data fees that are rediculous. Took it down to Telus where I got the plan and they basically said it is a huge problem but could not help me. What to do?

    I have had my I-Phone for 13 months and then a month after my warranty expired the wifi button greyed out. Never had a problem before updating to the new 7.4
    I am getting charged huge data charges due rto the phone using 3G. How do I fix this or do I have to get a new phone? If this is the case then I will go to a smart phone. My husband has no problems with his smart phone and is as user friendly as the i-phone. 

    Hello Theresa818,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like the cellular data will not activate for some reason on the iPad.
    I found this article that will help you resolve this issue here, named iPad (Wi-Fi + Cellular Models): Troubleshooting a cellular data connection, found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4249
    Check for a carrier settings update.
    Update your iPad.
    Toggle the Cellular Data setting off and on under Settings > Cellular Data.
    Restart your iPad.
    Tap Settings > General > About. Locate the Carrier entry and make sure that your carrier is correct.
    If your SIM card has SIM PIN enabled, try turning it off: Tap Settings > Cellular Data > SIM PIN.
    Make sure you're in an area of good coverage. If the cellular data connection works in another area, contact your carrier to report the original affected area.
    Reset network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Restore the iPad as new.
    If none of the above steps resolves the issue, make an appointment at an Apple Retail Store, contact your carrier, or contact AppleCare to troubleshoot further.
    I know you may have done one or two of the steps here, so you can skip those.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • I downloaded firefox 6, and restarted computer, but the message under the search window says I don't have the latest firefox. I tried twice. thank you

    I downloaded Firefox 6 and restarted computer, but the message under the search window says I don't have the latest Firefox. I tried twice. Thank you.

    I have a similar problem; but I think the cause of the "already running" message is that my computer crashed.
    I rebooted before I learned to look for the parent lock file, but even when I knew to look for it, I found my original profile folder to be empty.
    So I created another profile folder, and FF works, but I cannot access my old profile folder. When I open the location where it should be, nothing's there. But if I go to profile manager, I see my original profile is still there (and it has a location, it's where it should be - and where it's invisible, but even if I type in this location, nothing comes up).
    I tried making all folders visible (I run Windows 7), but this did not make my old profile visible.
    I want to find it because of the bookmarks I bookmarked recently.

  • I have had a time capsule for years and it worked well.  Now my airport utility states it is unable to find any airport wireless devices.  When I rescan, I get the same response.  I access the internet wirelessly through my Time Capsule - that part works.

    My time capsule is currently not backing up my MAC.  My airport utility states it can't find any airport wireless devices.  But I can access the internet via my time capsule.  I was trying to reset my time capsule but it won't let me since the airport utiity states it can't find any airport wireless devices.

    i was having the same problem. i held the reset button on my airport express for ten seconds, waited for it to restart and than unplugged my internet modem for 15 seconds and waited for it to restart and my wireless worked. but when i go to setup everything through the airport utility everything goes to crap and i have to start over again. i don't get it.

  • HT201269 Best Buy started the setup assistant on my new iPhone 5 and now I can't make it sync with iTunes.  How can I reset and start over?

    I bought an iPhone 5 at Best Buy, and they started the setup assistant process.  Now I can't go back and start over so I can sync my phone to my iTunes account.  I have an old iPhone 3GS and didn't use the iCloud.  I backed up to my computer.  And now I can't reset my iPhone 5 to sync to my iTunes.
    Help.

    I purchased a iPhone 5, and after completing a backup of my old iPhone 3GS, I in error selected Set Up as a New iPhone in the Setup Assistant.
    I connected to iTunes and did a Restore iPhone, which set the iPhone5 back to factory defaults, and I was able to restart the Setup Assistant, and following the apple support instructions, restored from my 3GS backup and synced with my iTunes account.  The Restore kept my phone number intact.
    I was worried that I would lose the setup of my phone number that was done in the store, but everything worked perfectly.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • I have set up my firefox shortcut to go directly to the profile manager. I have had it that way for years. All the sudden it has stopped working

    Hi,
    I cannot get my firefox shortcuts to go directly to the profile manager anymore. I don't know why. I know I have set the target up correctly in properties but it still will not go to the profile manger. Please help.
    Here is what is in the target location in properties:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -profilemanger

    Glad all is working again.
    If you have not come across this problem in two years maybe you just do not set Firefox as the Sytem's default browser. If so no need to read any further.
    Just be aware that in some circumstances you will run into problems with the way you appear to have done this. If you try to take an action that opens Firefox indirectly it may fail.
    The action you are trying to avoid, opening another window of the existing Firefox is sometimes essential.
    If you try to use a hyperlink or an HTML file your Windows Vista OS will normally try to use your default browser. That may well be Firefox. If that is the case and Firefox tries to open with -no-remote it will fail if the profile is in use. (Or warn you then automatically close down the already running profile )
    I will quote from another help article
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Opening_a_new_instance_of_your_Mozilla_application_with_another_profile <blockquote>'''Important:''' Never use -no-remote to start the "default" profile (the one that is set to open without asking when you launch Firefox). That's because when you launch Firefox, for example, by clicking a link in your mail program, you will get a [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_in_use Firefox is already running but is not responding message] if the default profile is already in use. The solution is to always start the default profile normally and launch all others with -no-remote. Then it will work.</blockquote>

  • My MacBook Pro has a 500GB Hard Drive (HD), but when I search my capacity I says that I only have 384.99 GBs of capacity. Where are the other 100GBs?

    My Mac has been a little slow, so I figured that I should make sure that I have enough storage capacity on my Hard Drive (HD). In doing so I realized that my HD is missing 100GB of space capacity. I thought that my HD was supposed to at least 499.25 of available space.
    When using "About this Mac", it clearly shows that I only have 384.99 GB of capacity.
    Where are the other 100 GB? I should mention that I recently deleted a partition for that same amount of storage. That has to have something to do with this? Can you help me?

    Why can't I download apps I have to pay for on to my new iPad Mini. I have had an Apple id for my iPhone for years and have downloaded app to it, no problems. When I try to download apps to my new iPad Mini, it tells me my billing info has to be confirmed. After confirming with same info that is already there it tells me to contact support, no help up to this point.

    Could the credit card be expired?
    Beyond that, what you need to do is contact iTunes support, they can tell you exactly what is wrong, none of us here can do that.
    In the lower right corner of this page is a 'contact us' link. Click on that and you'll see a page full of info and links, one of which is iTunes support.

    hi can anyone help please ? i have had apple products now for apron 7 years BUT have never been able to make the bluetooth work , not even when 2 products i.e. : phone and iPod are in the same room. So i stopped trying but would like to set it up between my iMac and iphone / ipad but can't get it to work, they say discoverable but just will not connect to one another. I also tried the connection code and tried without one ... NO JOY ... Is this common or am i a twit ?

    You can't connect an iPhone or iPad to a Mac via Bluetooth, except for Internet tethering.
    You're not doing anything wrong - it just isn't a feature of iOS devices.
    What were you hoping a Bluetooth connection would allow you to do?
