    You don't have to. Just go to Apple's Express Lane and add products.

  • Why does the screen on my iPad mini jump around?  Apps open and close, I can't get back to the home screen.  Is my mini possessed?

    Why does the screen on my iPad mini start jumping--larger, smaller--can't close apps.  I reboot and still it happens.  Any suggestions?

    If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...  Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

    Hi deamayfield,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your Music app is unresponsive, try restarting/resetting your iPhone:

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    The only way you will be able to track that iPod is if it is turned on and connected to a wifi network by the person that has it.

  • I can't get back to my home screen? Is the home button broke?

    I can't get back to my home screen? Is the home button broke?

    A simple press on the home button should always get you back to your 'app-menu'. If this is not the case there is a problem. It is possible that your button is broken. Maybe you could try first to install the latest iOS version through iTunes if you haven't done already. Or try to reset your iPhone by pressing the power button a few seconds and then Slide to Power off.
    Let me know if it works!

  • My apple tv 2 says I can't stream music from my iTunes library on my iMac without settng up iTunes Match. I don't want to set up iTunes match. How can I get back to the pre-Match system which let me just use home sharing to stream music from computer to A

I don't want to set up and pay for iTunes Match. How can I get back to the pre-Match system which let me just use home sharing to stream music from computer to Aple TV

    Ditto.
    You need to look for your itunes library under Computers and select it, then music.
    Music column is for web based content not local content, just to confuse everyone.

  • How do I get back to the original screen on GarageBand?

    How do I get back to the original screen on GarageBand? I have gone into My Songs (not that I have any of my own), and I now want to get back to the screen where I can play any instrument. Please help. Thanks

    Sibbo123 wrote:
    Thanks for replying, however, there is no plus sign on the screen that I'm looking at. I'm on the screen that shows one of the songs that comes pre-loaded with the application. It has all of the instruments used down the left hand side of the screen and the recorded segments to the right. Thanks in advance.
    In that case press My Songs to get to screen where the songs are displayed. Then you can press the + at the bottom of the screen to create a new song where you can experiment. Or, as Carolyn says, press Instruments, however in this case anything you want to record will be added to or overwrite part of the current song.

    I just clean installed maverick on my computer and I have nothing in my iTunes library, how can I get back all the music I have bought?

    From your backups. By doing a clean install you erased your startup volume. You may have installed OS X, but your personal software was erased. You can restore from backups if your have them. If not, then you've lost it all, permanently.
