  • TS2972 I can see the song titles in itunes shared library on my new imac  but songs will not play. I have a pc with wifi network that the main music library is on. tried saving songs from pc to an external drive then to new mac but thats not working eithe

    attempted to transfer itunes music from pc to new imac. didn't work. apple suggest using sharing method. main library of music is on pc. did those steps and shared library shows up on mac but when you click on the song to play it doesn't play or maybe ther is no content? any suggestions?

    Hi there,
    It sounds like your purchased content is not transfering via a flash drive. It may be easier to re-download this contnet directly from iTunes. Take a look at the article below for mor information.

  • Hello, well i just purchase iphone 4 from pakistan.. I want to update my ios but that didnt work. I just saw the status of my phone.. So iphone was lock.. I need lil help . Thanks

    Hello, well i just purchase iphone 4 from pakistan.. I want to update my ios but that didnt work. I just saw the status of my phone.. So iphone was lock.. I need lil help . Thanks

    ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it. You will have to contact them. Since you are not the original purchaser of the phone and do not have service with whatever carrier it might be locked to, it is highly unlikely you will get it unlocked.
    Since it was hacked to unlock it originally, it is highly likely that the phone will become a brick if you attempt to apply a legitimate unlock.
    Actually, it is probably already a brick.
    There is nothing we can suggest other than to google "iphone dfu mode" and try doing a restore in DFU mode to see if that can bring it back to life. It may. If so, you will then need to work with the carrier it's locked to or sell it and buy a new phone.

    Hi alicia243,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone wont power on, I recommend going through these steps first:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Best,
    Jeremy

    If Join was on then your home wi-fi must be set to Non-Broadcast.  If you did not set this up (maybe your provider did) then you will need to find the Network Name they used, and any password they used.  The SSID is Security Set ID and to see more try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSID .  Basically it is the name used to identify your router/network.  A lot of times the installer will leave it set as LinkSys, or Broadcom or whatever the manufacturer set it as for default.  Your best bet is to get whoever installed it to walk you through how they set it up, giving you id's and passwords so you can get in.  HOWEVER, if you are not comfortable with this (if you set security wrong, etc.) you would be well ahead of the game to hire a local computer tech (networking) to get this working for you.  You can also contact the vendor of your router and get help (if it is still in warranty), or at least get copies of the manuals as pdf files.  Sorry I can't give you more help, I hope this gives you an idea where to go from here to find more.

  • Iv lost the files to play audio books iv tried to and found them locate files but that dont work

    I'm going to take a wild guess and say that you have a SATA controlled hard drive. Apparently, there's some kind of bug with SATA disks and Vista and Quicktime/itunes video...and possibly Nvidia is involved as well.
    The workaround is sticking the video on a flash drive in order to play it (because that avoids the SATA controller and thus bypasses the issue). It's a crappy workaround, IMO...and I'm not spending another cent on iTunes videos until the issue is actually fixed.

  • Okay, so my computer was having some problems.  I recently did a restore (the one where you set back time to an earlier date) itunes didnt work after that... i tried uninstalling it but that didnt work.  I then downloaded a third party app to...

    completely remove itunes...  i re downloaded after that and itunes is up and running (currently listening to music)  however i now have no way to sync my iphone to the pc...  i first tried using wifi sync, but the phone said the "pc was unavailble" and the sync button was greyed out.  i then plugged the iphone directly into the computer via a apple usb 30 pin connector.  Nothing.  The computer recognizes the iphone in "my computer" and i can access my photos that way.  but itunes doesnt recognize it at all.  there is currently no way for me to sync my iphone.  I have already "reset" my iphone... (holding down home button and lock button until it shuts off... and still until it shows a apple icon and then releasing after the apple icon goes away).  i then turn it back on and plug it into the computer.  itunes still doesnt find it.  what do i do?  i really dont want to unistall it again.. its a huge hassle and take forever.

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • The songs being synced to my iphone would get corrupted and then everytime i plugged in my ipod or iphone itunes said they needed to be restored but that didnt work so i uninstalled itunes and now when i try to install it it doesnt install.

    At first everytime i tried to sync songs to my iphone the songs got corrupted and wouldnt play or they would skip. Then my ipod and my iphone wouldnt sync and itunes said they needed to be restored to factory settings, I tried doing that a few times and it never would work, the restore would run into various errors and never work out. I recentlly tried uninstalling itunes to see if that would help but now when i try to install and download itunes it doesnt work and the install runs into an error.
    Also my ipod is stuck in recovery mode but my itunes doesnt even read the fact that its there. Can someone please help.

  • How do I find the device for my iPad 2? When I found the app, it stated that it worked with iPhone, iPod, and iPad2.

    I downloaded the iPad2 app for Firefox, have gone into my MacBook, opened it up, set the preference, and then it wanted the numbers for the device. Where do I find the numbers?
    Then I found no iPad2 listed. The information on the App Store stated that it definitely was available for iPad2, but no luck syncing it.
    I do have the bluetooth up and running, but will that serve to sync? Should I go ahead and run a normal sync.

    Whow what a shame, I thought this iPad was going to be terrific.  Guess I'll get out my trusty Cannon from now on, lots less hassle.
    Thank you for the reply!

  • HT5137 I have installed on my iPad Mini IOS 7.2 and I have downloaded the. Free Podcast app from Apple.  When I plug in my ear buds, the podcast software stops.  The play control actually changes to STOP.  When I unplug the ear buds, the software works fi

    When listening to the Apple-provided Podcast App on my iPad Mini, the moment I plug in my ear buds, the playback stops and no amount of tapping the play button will restart the playback.  Then, when I unplug the ear buds, the play button functions normally.  This has only begun since I updated to the new IOS 7.2
    Regards...

    Log in to the Developer forum. You will find instructions on how to install the lastest beta. Your problem is the beta you have installed has expired. All of them did on October 5; you will find hundreds of threads discussing this. If you have a beta it is assumed that you will continue as a beta tester, so a simple update using iTunes will not work.
    If you no longer want to be a beta tester install the GM 7.0.2 by restoring from iTunes using DFU mode.

  • How do you keep attachments from rotating  when they come in on the side

    You keep attachments on your email from rotating when they come in sideways

    You can't of the PDF or the file was oriented that way. You can lock the screen orientation and turn the iPad the other way - landscape or portrait - but you can't change the orientation of the file in the mail app.
