HT5114 How can a responsible eleven year old use an i-pod? I do not want to begin with the idea that it is okay to change the year of your birthday like "everyone else does". What can be done in an honest way?

How can a responsible eleven year old use an ipod? I do not want to 'follow the flow' as I have been instructed to do by other parents in order to obtain an apple id for her by changing her birth year. I believe in truth. I believe that even a 'little white lie' simply adds a burden in our childrens hearts and allows them to think it is okay. As I was told, "It is okay, how is Apple going to find out?" I do not want to travel that path. Her friends have ipods, our 9 year old cousin has an ipod....Help, Honest Mom in need of a solution.

She can use an iPod. She just can't have her own account in the iTunes Store. The restriction is on using the iTunes Store, not on using apps or playing content purchased from it. You just need to set up an iTunes Store account and buy items for her rather than having her do it on her own.
Regards.

    Why the ISTORE of Malta is not up to date with the latest movies and series like the UK & USA and why old movies are being uploaded .
    I believe the apple should be universal in all the products and a small island like Malts should have the same products for sale on ISTORE like of the UK and USA.

    The iTunes and App stores are inherently different in different countries.  Local laws on copyright and other limits on the distribution of intellectual property make it impossible for Apple to simply put everything in every store.  Sometimes, the owner of the intellectual property does not allow it to be distributed everywhere.  Keep in mind that Apple does not own the music, books, movies and such that they allow for sale in their store front, so they do not necessarily have any say in what may, or may not appear in what store.

  • How do i remove an Update notification? I do not want to update to the latest iOS (Asian languages) which is useless to me and I don't want to waste space on my iPad. I want to be able to "Select All" instead of doing each update individually.

    That's quite a title I created!  Sorry, I've never submitted a question before! ☺ I do not want to update to the latest iOS (Asian language stuff) which is useless to me and I don't want to waste space on my iPhone 4S and iPad 5. I want to be able to "Select All" updates instead of doing each update individually. It's a real pain in the you-know-what. Does anyone know how to I remove this notification (and any other updates I'm not interested in) from the Updates page? Thanks so much everyone!

    Thanks so much for your time!  I wish you had a more positive answer, but c'est la vie!  I hate the fact that I cannot control my apps and feel like a hostage of the developer(s). I've read other forums and some responses were "then delete the app!"  Lame answer!  So thank you so much for your respectful and insightful reply!  Cheers.

  • How do I set a different folder than the Windows MyDocuments/Downloads folder? I do not use 'My Documents' at all, all my saved files go to other hard drives for storage, and I do not want to bother with the My Docs route. I used to have downloads set to

    I want to set a different folder from the My Documents/Downloads folder for Firefox to put everything I download, like I used to have it. I recently rebuilt my computer and reinstalled everything from WinXP to security software to Firefox, and I cannot find any options anywhere to set a different folder like I used to have it... with the same software, other than it being a newer iteration of Ff. So tell me, am I losing my mind so bad that I just can't remember how I did it before, or have things changed so much that what I want is no longer possible? Please, someone tell me how to set it to do what I want, I can't stand to have what I do on my computer dictated by programmers who only think that they know what people want. If that sounds a little angry, I apologize with the disclaimer that I suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and therefore cannot handle frustration... and this kind of thing frustrates me to the point of rage.

  • Having issues with my daughters ipad mini and match.  The match doesn't sem to want to connect with the itunes store.  Is there anyone else unable to get the Match to work on the mini?

    Ok here is the deal.  I purchased match for myself from itunes from my mac and for my iphone.  It worked, i assume, as it was supposed to.  All the music from my library and my phone went to the cloud and my phone now has an extra 7gigs of memory that i didn't have.  I decided to do the same for my daughter's new itunes account for her mini.  For the mini the match was bought from her toshiba laptop and it just doesn't want to work.  She will need the extra memory spce for her other interests.  Am I missing something? Did I do it wrong? is there anone else experiencing the same issues?

    On the Mac Mini sign into the iTunes Store using the same account ID that was used to purchase the service on the toshiba laptop.

    You are unable to register what ? If you are in China then you can only use the China iTunes store (you have to be in a country to use its store), if you want to contact China iTunes Support then you can do so via this page : http://www.apple.com/cn/support/itunes/contact/

  • MY hard drive crashed and I had to replace it. Now when I try to sync my iPod with iTunes it says that I have to replace the old library (that is lost forever) with the new library to sync. I do not want to lose all the songs on my iPod! What can I do?

    Copy all the content on your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes. Then go ahead and sync the iPod with your new library.
    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

(see FCP X)..
    good luck with apple dude..
    Where is the Apple problem? I have CS4 and CS5 running perfectly fine on my Macbook Pro. Installed 5 after Lion upgrade. Worth every cent. Adobe did have some catching up to do with Lion but with the CS5.5 update all runs fine. But not yours. So it is a problem with the Lion OS? You say you have been with Adobe since 2005. So you would be aware of all the other issues that Adobe had catching up with past Oss in Mac and Windows then. They get it right, but it is up to them. It is not up to Apple, nor Microsoft for that matter, to run around and check that every software developer in the world is running their business properly.
    And what has politics got to do with anything. Some people just have to blame Software for their poor Hardware maintainence of failure of the same.
    <The only think I can really do is to go back on my old windows...give back this orrible lap top and ask for my money back!>
    Great suggestion. You should go with that one, but good luck getting a refund.

  • How can I delite copies in easy way from "Photo", there are about 4-5 copies each of 3500 pictures!

    How can I delite copies in easy way from "Photo", there are about 4-5 copies each of 3500 pictures!

    Did you import an old iPhoto library into this one? It sounds like you did - NEVER import an iPhoto library - it does not work and creates a massie mess
    If that is wha tyou did and you still have the old library available drag the bad library to the desktop for now and drag the old library to your ictures folder (No Importing Involved) and launch iPhoto - it will open the library and upgrade as needed - once you are sure your photos are safe and at least one backup cycle has run you can trash the bad library on the desktop

    What is the GarageBand version that your friend is using?
    If it is GarageBand '11, version 6.0.5, you can buy GarageBand '11 as a boxed retail version with the iLIfe '11 bundle, e.g. from Amazon.
    Then you can upgrade GarageBand '11 to 6.0.5, using this upgrader from the Support page:
                     GarageBand 6.0.5
    GarageBand 6.0.5 will work well with your system.  But if your friend is using the newest GarageBand 10, this will not help. Then ask your friend to send you audio files for each track, so you can recreate the project from the audio.  Or your friend could also use GarageBand '11 for the projects you want to share, that will run well in all newer MacOS X versions, even with GarageBand 10.0 installed on the same system.

  • I have 2 iPhones - one for personal use and one for work. They are currently connected with the same Apple ID. I would like to separate the two accounts. Does anybody know how to do this?

    I have 2 iPhones - one for personal use and one for work. They are currently connected with the same Apple ID. I would like to separate the two accounts. Does anybody know how to do this?

    Just create a new AppleID for your work.
    As Allan suggested, items purchased on one iTunes account cannot be moved to the other account.
    However, you can put items purchased on on account onto the other iPhone.

  • Can I backup two devices (with different documents) to one iCloud account?  For example: iPad and iPhone, not everything is synced between the two, but I would like to backup each (seperately in the cloud), is this possible?

    Hello Apple Community,
    Can I backup two devices (with different documents) to one iCloud account? 
    For example: iPad Air and iPhone 5, not everything is synced between the two, but I would like to backup each (seperately in the cloud).  Is this possible?
    This way when I change from an old ipad to a new, I can restore with the ipad backup, and when I change from an old iphone to a new, I can restore from the
    iphone backup.
    Thank you in advance!

    Terminology check here. Do you really mean a "CD"?  There's a difference in Cloud behavior between content from a physical CD you ripped (which only has Cloud content if you have iTunes Match) and an "album" you bought from the iTunes Store.
    Read references for Home Sharing.
    iTunes: How to share music and video - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2688 - about Music Sharing and Home Sharing
    Home Sharing Support page - http://www.apple.com/support/homesharing/
    iOS: Setting up Home Sharing on your device - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4557 - "With Home Sharing in iOS 4.3 or later, you can stream your entire iTunes library over your home Wi-Fi network from your Mac or PC right to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch."
    The above can get pretty complicated.  You are probably best off by syncing both devices to a single library and/or updating the libraries on both computers to have the same content.
