HT4972 I cannot back up my IPad because I have a corrupted backup. I need to delete it but cannot locate it on my computer or find help on this topic. I would appreciate any help.
I cannot back up my IPad because I have a corrupted backup that I need to delete. The problem is I cannot locate the file to delete it. How do you locate the backup file?
You have the latest version of iTunes on your computer (on a PC 'Help > Check For Updates' ; on a Mac 'iTunes > Check For Updates') ? You could also try ejecting the iPad and rebooting your PC and the iPad : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
If you still get the same error then check whether it has actually deleted the backup (if you have other devices that you backup to that computer then they will also have backups) - they are stored under :
Mac:~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP:\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.
Windows Vista and Windows 7:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press the Return key.

My camera Canon G3 (i know it's old) no longer connects to iPhoto (8.1.2) on my iMac, I have checked with my friends iMac same model iPhoto version and it works fine using my cable, I would appreciate any help getting this sorted
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there? -
Iphoto diet & iphoto 6 error!! would appreciate any help/feedback
I recently installed iPhoto 6.0.6. and since then, when I run iPhoto Diet (3.1) an apple script error message comes up.
It says: File alias Macintosh HD:Users:michellechin:Pictures:iPhoto Library:Modified: wasn't found. (-43)
HELP! what does this mean? and how can I make iPhoto Diet run properly again?
Would appreciate any help very very very much.
Thanks in advance,

It means that the application cannot find the Modified folder, which should be in your iPhoto Library Folder (inside your Pictures Folder).
Have you contacted the developers of iPhoto Diet?

In iTunes, I have a number of tones stored. I don't know how to access them to add to listed people on my iPhone. I would appreciate any help.
Drap and drop the tones from iTunes onto the phone. Select the contact you wish you add the tone to. Click edit and select ringtone.

I am having a problem with adding selected numbers in a column. When I select "sum" the whole column is added, not just the selected cells. I would appreciate any help how to rectify? Many thanks. Francis Anthony
I don't know if this is the best way but it's pretty easy.
1.) Select the cell you want the sum in.
2.) Select the sum function
3.) In the line where you see =sum(B2:B8) using your finger tap the B2:B8
4.) Use the backspace key to delete the B2:B8 and it will then show "value"
5.) You can now tap any cell you want in the sum
6.) When finished tap the green check mark button at the end of the sum line.
That pretty much sums it up.
Good luck.

I've had my new iMac for about a week now and am totally sick ofthe vagueries of Mavericks,
I would appreciate any help you guys could give me to help me 'downgrade' to Mountain Lion.
I understand that Mountain Lion has never been released on disc, so that would seem to be the major problem.
Thanks in advance
Roy136.If the Mac came pre-installed with Mavericks you can't downgrade. Have a look at mine and den.thed's comments here:

I have a huge mess I would appreciate any help possible with Itunes!
I've had Itunes forever now and it's been fine. With this last upgrade, it's created some problems. Half of my new playlists created have disappeared. The music is still there in the library, just the playlists are gone which was enough to fill a 60 gb ipod. Itunes now reads at the bottom I have 1022 GB of music - my hard drive is 250gb so that's obviously incorrect. My iphone will not recognize my calendar or my contacts in Office 2003 with all updates - so basically it's hosed. Someone had given me a link to uninstall it which I did. I restarted. Then I uninstalled apple mobile something or other and restarted. Then I deleted the itunes folder from program files emptied recycle bin and then restarted. I then proceeded to re-download and install itunes. I went through the hour process of uninstall and restart then install. I get everything finished and open itunes expecting to see a fresh clean slate and it's exactly the same. What did I do wrong since I followed these instructions at the bottom for uninstalling http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305845
I need help. I figure at this point I'll take my losses with my playlists I have spent years building just to have everything working again. I appreciate any help you can give.Assume you mean "invitations" and not "innovations"?
If you have pages 4, just do File > New From Template Chooser and select Invitations under the Page Layout category. -
Whilst updating to IOS5 on my iphone 4 it was interrupted whilst restoring the contents of my iphone!!! Now when I try and restore it asks for a password to unlock my iphone backups - I have tried several but it states password is incorrect and accordingly I cannot restore backups and have lost loads of important information!!
I would really appreciate your suggestions on what to do.
Many thanksPlace the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. Some glitch occured and you have to restore/erse the iPod. Y will have to restore from an existing backup if y ohave one.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -
I have not seen any keys, codes, etc on my phone. Just want to uninstall
Hello- Well, the phone is new so I have an awful lot to learn about it. I know my phone works or goes through Google (Gmail)???? which I have always had a Gmail email. I wanted to sync my PC to my new phone. I downloaded Firefox Sync to my PC. It asked for my email and to create a password, which I did. And that was all I did. I glanced at my phone minutes later and realized that new emails weren't appearing anymore after downloading Sync to my PC. Yet, on my PC, new emails were appearing in my Gmail account. Also, right away I noticed a problem with my network on my phone.
I don't know if I should have downloaded FireFox to my cell phone first before syncing.
When I downloaded Sync to my PC and it asked me for my email address and to create a password, I created a NEW password (which then changed my Gmail password), which my cell phone does not know this new password.
Anyway, today I 'Deactivated' my Sync, I think. Lol. But still have all the same phone issues. I'm guessing now that the problem may be because I changed passwords when I created the Sync?
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you -

I'm running iTunes on a PC laptop and ready to move music to an independent hard drive. We want to add more music to it. I have used iTunes for a while for iPods. My wife and I have new iPhone 5S and would like to access the cloud for different types of music, but I will maintain the music in the cloud. (That's my job.) Can 2 iPhones use the same iCloud? We each have different Apple ID's. Thanks.
Music in the cloud is managed by the separate iTunes Match service ($25/year US). You would sign up to it on the PC, and your music library would be matched with the iTunes Store, and high quality versions of all songs would become available to you on any device also signed into iTunes Match. You should not delete your local copy from the PC, since you should retain a master version of all songs for safety.
You can use the same iTunes Match service, but you'd see the same music (you say you "would like to access the cloud for different types of music", but I'm not sure what you mean by that).
