Open App Store and sign in with your Apple ID. Click on the Support link under Quick Links on the right side.

First: I get the message telling me that "iTunes was unable to load data class information from Sync Services. Reconnect or try again later."
Second: In the Summary Tab under Backups, iTunes is telling me that my iPhone has never been backed up to my computer - which is not true. It's also telling me that my iPhone has never been backed up to iCloud. Again, not true. Although my backups are all missing from iTunes, I can see what I think is them in their folder: C:\Users\*your user name here*\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync.
Third: iTunes is SLOOOOOOOOW. It takes nearly ten minutes - sometimes more - to launch, and when it does, it's constantly not responding. It seems every time I touch something it stops responding.
Fourth: I've been searching this "help" forum for a solution, and I've seen many other references, yet the only suggestion I've seen from someone from Apple is a reference to a solution that is over 2 years old - and DOESN'T WORK for anyone I can see who's tried it!
I've tried everything I could think of, and that others have suggested, including:
Uninstalling and re-installing iTunes
Ensuring I have the latest version of iTunes
Re-setting sync history
Renaming my Backup folder at the path above, and letting iTunes create a new one
Running around the house whilst pulling my hair and yelling obscenities
None helped. At all.
Hmmm... Been a devoted Apple/iOS guy for years, but maybe it's time to switch to Android?I've resolved the issue with iTunes constantly not responding. It's a bit embarrassing. I had a DVD in the drive that was corrupt, and once I was able to remove it - BAM - iTunes ran perfectly.
I'm still getting the Sync Services message, and my backups are still not showing in iTunes.
Getting there.... I hope! -

If I am planning on buying a macbook and my parent is an educator, therefor I would get a discount... If my parent does not come with me to buy it is there any way that I can still receive the discount?
If you are a college student and take a student ID you will get the education discount. If you are a student in public or private high school and have a student ID you may get the discount. I know of some parents/students who claim to have gotten the discount and some who have been denied it. Not sure if that's due to a policy change or just a difference in interpretation of who is eligible. I suggest you call your local store to find out.

Why does my iphone say it has never been backed up
my iphone says it has never been backed up, or last back incomplete or back up failed, yet my icloud will say it has been backed up. why is this happening?
Did you ever get an answer to this? My phone started saying this over six months ago..it says it has never been backed up and icloud doesn't have enough storage. I don't even have ANY music and only about 100 pictures. I sync it to my computer all the time and when I do it says it's completely up to date.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

I have recently been experiencing problems with my iPhone and iCloud backup. My iPhone tells me I have not backed it up to iCloud in over 4 weeks, when in actually it was 2 days ago. So I plug my phone into my laptop and click - 'Back up to iCloud'. It runs and when complete, it tells me 'Your iPhone has never been backed up to iCloud.' Even I after I have just completed the function.
Can someone help shed light on what the problem is?To backup to iCloud, you actually backup on your phone, not your computer. To backup to iCloud, you MUST be connected to wifi. While on wifi, go to Settings> iCloud (sign into iCloud if you haven't yet)> Sorage & Backup> Backup Now. You get 5GB of complimentary iCloud storage. For most people, that's enough. iCloud backup stores app data (game progress, login, etc), contacts, calendars, notes, and photos. The apps themselves and your music can be retrieved in the iTunes and app stores for free again by going to the purchased area.
Hope this helps! -
hi, i just tried backing up my iphone on icloud but th option to 'Back Up Now" doesnt work. when i tap on it, nothing happens. Im worried because my iPhone has never been backed up before. Please help
Reset the phone then try it again: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.

I have a new ipad2 for xmas . I have tried to sync the device to itunes and it is not being seen. I have the latest version of itunes, updated last night, and have several other devices that are seen fine (iphone/ipods).
When I connect the usb direct to the mac iphoto starts but then that is it - itunes will not recognise the device......
I have gone thourgh the suggested support help on the apple website and came to the last point - review community ... so here I am!What you provided is not everything mentioned.
Your Mac is running 10.5.8 or later and iTunes 10?
You are connecting the iPad direct to a USB port on your Mac and you have tried every port?
You have reinstalled the Apple Mobile Device Service?
If your Mac is running Snow Leopard - 10.6, have you checked this link?

My laptop and my iPhone both crashed I have lost all my contacts music and pictures is there anyway of getting any of it back for my new iPhone 4S
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to backup, tehn you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Everything else is gone, if you have failed to backup or sync it to icloud or some other cloud service. -
When I connect my MacBook to my television using Apple TV the audio stays on the MacBook and doesn't transfer to the TV. How can I make it so I can hear the Movie or Video through my TV's speakers and not my MacBook's?
This is called "extended desktop mode". It's an extension of the desktop off to the right (by default) of your MBair screen. Grab an app and drag it off the right side of your MBair screen and it will appear on the TV.
To mirror your MBair screen on the TV you can press Command F1. This will toogle between mirror and extended desktop.
You can find all the settings in System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement tab.

Using my airport in my downstairs office, the wifi is not strong enough upstairs due to the concrete floor in between. Is there a product that I can add , either at the airport or upstairs to boost the signal?
The correct way to add more range to your network is install another AirPort router upstairs and then connect it back to the main AirPort using a wired Ethernet connection.
There is no signal loss in the Ethernet cable, so the upstairs AirPort will receive a full strength signal to broadcast upstairs.
The upside.....you will have a network designed the way an IT pro would recommend.
The downside.....you, or someone else has to run the Ethernet cable and do some drilling.
With a concrete ceiling, it would not be recommended to try to extend the network by connecting the upstairs AirPort to the downstairs AirPort using a wireless connection. The reason is simple.......the signal will be weak and slow by the time that it gets upstairs.....and the upstairs AirPort cannot make the signal that it receives go any faster.
The upstairs AirPort acts like a signal repeater.when it connects using wireless. It can make the weak and slow signal go further, but it cannot make the signal that it receives go any faster.
If you have the time and willingness to experiment, it is possible that adding an AirPort upstairs to connect using wireless to the AirPort downstairs might provide some improvement to your current situation. But, it would also be a good idea to understand the store's return policy before you buy.
The unfortunate fact remains that wireless signals are very weak, and they will not go through concrete very well at all. -
The lock symbol does not appear when I open a secure page in firefox 4.0. Has this been removed?
Previously, using firefox 3.6.1, when I opened a secure or encrypted page, the lock icon appeared on that page.
When I upgraded to firefox 4.0, the lock icon is no longer appearing when I open a secure page. Please confirm whether this has been removed or in the alternative whether there is a way to determine that the secure or encrypted page is indeed secure to use.In Firefox 4 you no longer have the Status bar that showed the padlock in previous Firefox versions.<br />
The padlock only shows that there is a secure connection and doesn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server.<br />
So you might still be connected to the wrong server if you make a typo in the URL and someone has claimed that mistyped URL.<br />
The functionality of the padlock has been replaced by the [[Site Identity Button]] on the left end of the location bar.
