HT4527 i have an ipad iphone and ipod all synced with my old windows 7 pc how do i sync them with my new imac without lossing my data

Help I dont understand the instruction. I transfered by date using the migration assistant which didn't work that well as it locked all the file. I managedto sort this out but it did nt transfer this automatically to itunes. what do I need to do now ?

It's alright, I don't have a Mac so I get confused too. The option key should be somewhere to the left of the space bar and look like it is trying to represent railway points.
I don't know how migration assistant works, but presumably it has dumped an iTunes folder somewhere on the Mac. Inside that should be a file called iTunes Library.itl that is the core of the library. Unfortunately iTunes "thinks different" so we can't just double click the file to open it, that opens whatever the "current" library is instead, so you'll need to hold down option (shift for Windows) to get a dialog to choose or create a library. Click choose and browse to the relevant file.
If iTunes can't play your music at this point and gives the exclamation mark of doom then we need to go back to the Windows 7 library, tweak it up for easy export then bring it over again. Overview here. Customized instructions on request.

  • Twitter account hacked now Ipad, iPhone, and iPod all F-up.  How doe i fix this?

    Twitter account was hacked. They put the twitter name up for auction, somehow they got into my iPhone, iPad, and son's iPod.  I know from reading the boards that everyone who says they got hacked is told it can't happen but it has.  Nothing is "jailbroken" nor has any device been outside of your physical control. Everyone's iPad is wireless only with no external carriers (AT&T, etc).  No one has ever physically been connected to my router (Airport Extreme).  And yet someone has gathered personal information.  On my son's iPod he was having fun writting nonsensical random letters typed in notes (he is 8).  When we just looked at his iPod to see if it was hacked as well, we found hidden words in the random text.  Things like sex or sexing even GmbH which is the German symbol for a German Limited Liability Company.  It was properly capitalized in the exact order in the prior sentence which is the proper use of the abbreviation. I believe in random walks but that was no accident and eight year olds aren't into limited liability abbreviations.  My wife keeps getting crazy messages and my Mac Mini is running slow.  Forgot to mention son's iPod was set up using wifes e-mail account (same as Twitter account) I have done all of the following:
    Swept all computers with Avast! and my work PC with Malwarbytes.  No infections show up.
    Cleaned all cache and history's.
    Went into Safari preferences and removed all cookies.  There was a bunch, but the strange thing is after wipping it clean 2 to 4 would always re-appear even after i check ALWAYS block cookies in the privacy section.
    I reset my wife's iPad, iPhone to factory settings.
    I erased old network connection and passwords, which by the way was set already at WPA2.  New Home base and Network names and random generator to set new password (lower/upper case, numbers, and symbols).
    I cross referenced all IP addresses of our devices with the DHCP.  By the way the old operating system made this a lot easier FYI.
    So does anyone have any additional suggestions and anyone wish to tell me i am making this up?
    Thanks

    I'm assuming this is the iPod Touch, since that is the only iPod that accesses the iTunes store. I would recommend you post this here https://discussions.apple.com/community/ipod/ipod_touch

  • I already have an ipad, iPhone and iPod on my iTunes.  Can I add my wife's iPhone to my iTunes?

    I already use iTunes for iPhone4, iPad and iPod classic.  Can I add another iPhone4 now my wife has one?  If I already set up an Apple ID for her, do I now need to keep the two separate or can I simply erase that Apple ID and put all devices and Itunes through the one Apple ID/iTunes?

    I have an iPad 2 that I want to use with video mirroring to give lectures with. I bought a VGA Adapter for the iPad, iPhone, and iPod as I want to be able to connect with any TV, monitor or projector for lectures, not just an HD device.. After plugging in my iPad to the VGA adapter and then to the video device, it appears that there is no connection with the iPad. Anybody have any thoughts?
    Thanks, Steve

  • HI!  I have a new macbook air but having difficulty connecting to a router if I am about 10 meters away.  My iMac, iPad, iPhones and iPods can connect easily.  Is there something that I need to configure?  I have no issues if I am close to it.  Thank you!

    Hello, If you are dealing with one of the really thin iMac's that have no superdrive, then the superdrive icon should not appear on the desktop when you plug it in, but when you put in a disk (CD, DVD, etc.) that should appear. If you go into disk utility, and look at superdrive, that should be clickable and not grayed out when you have it plugged in. If this does not show up in disk utility, go to Apple, and ask to speak to their supervisor, speaking to a customer service agent is like talking to a potato, nothing gets done. Good Luck!

  • Why have I lost radio 4 on my ipad, iphone and ipod. I have tried lots of different british radio apps.

    I can't tell you how it happened, but if you want to get them back on your other devices, download the app My Contacts Backup on your 4S and use the app to back up your contacts as a vCard attachment to an email.  Send the email to yourself.  You can open the email on your iPad and tap the attachment to import the contacts to your iPad.  If you want them in iCloud, go to Settings>iCloud on your iPad and turn Contacts to On before importing the contacts.  If your computer is signed into your iCloud account this will also make them appear on your computer.  If not, import the vCard attachment to whatever contact management program you are using on your computer.

  • HT1386 How do I create one Apple ID and iTunes user name and password for all of my Apple products: iPad, iPhone, and iPod plus iTunes on my PC?

    How do I create one Apple ID and iTunes user name and password for all of my Apple products: iPad, iPhone, and iPod plus iTunes on my PC?

    Yes, I do have multiple devices and it appeared to me that every time I tried to sync or log onto iTunes, the password was incorrect.  Consequently, I was and am constantly changing it.  Wouldn't it be nice if Apple would simply say that you only need one Apple ID and one password regardless of the number of Apple devices you intend to sync via iTunes. 
    Barring the above, how about a way to merge all of the Apple IDs and passwords into one.

  • I have my ipad, iphone, and macbook pro all synced together.  I receive all my emails on the macbook and iphone just fine, but don't receive all emails on my ipad.  Some go to Trash because it says they're improperly formatted.  What gives?

    I have my ipad, iphone, and macbook pro all synced together, which generally works fine.  I receive all emails from senders in my address book in my Macbook Pro and iPhone, but some end up in Trash on my iPad, with the message, "This message cannot be displayed because of the way it is formatted.  Ask the sender to send it again using a different format or email program.  text/plain"  They appear to be mainly from competing platforms, android, etc.  Is there a workaround for this problem?
    Thanks-

    Imap: google, hotmail, and more including icloud.
    If you want to use multiple devices - move to imap, I would even say "exchange", but Google does not support free exchange anymore, since January of that year. So Ironically  Icloud or Hotmail would be my choices right now.
