I already have app on my iphone and on itunes, but it still 'Transfers' my purchase. It takes a lot of time that I don't have

Thats it basically, when I stick my Iphone into computer, I don't want to sync my apps only music coz the apps take ages, but if I untick the sync apps button it says that all of my apps will be removed? why?! Whats the point. I only want to sync come songs not apps.
Can you please sort it out.

The app you got only works with iPhones, iPods touch and iPads, but not with Macs. That's because Macs use a different operating system that requires different applications, so you have to purchase the application for the Mac

  • When I plug my iPhone into my computer to sync my iTunes I get a message that says "iTunes cannot read the content of the iPhone" and wants me to restore my phone back to factory settings. Any suggestions so that I don't have to restore?

    When I plug my iPhone into my computer to sync my iTunes I get a message that says "iTunes cannot read the content of the iPhone" and wants me to restore my phone back to factory settings. Any suggestions so that I don't have to restore? I have all of my stuff backed up on iCloud but I really don't want to go through the hassle of wiping it clean and putting everything back on.

    This is a post from a user named edgar999 and it worked PERFECTLY:
    "OK - this is how it works:
    In order to backup from iCloud you cannot use iTunes!
    Therefore disconnect your device from your computer.
    Turn on your device and go to Settings and then go to General.
    At the bottom of this submenu there is a buttom "Reset"
    If you push that buttom you see 6 different Erase settings to chose from!
    Chose "Erase All Content and Settings" because this will wipe everything from your device and will let you restore from iCloud!  (I tried the top "Reset All Settings" but that did not let me use iClouds afterwards!)
    Once you pushed that buttom your device will be wiped clean and after some time you will see the Device Welcome Screen like on a new device!
    After choosing your location you will be asked to setup your WiFi-conection. After  you joint to your Wifi you will be given the choice to restore the iPad from a backup from the iCloud. Choosing this backup will prompt you with your apple ID and password.
    Restoring from a backup can take some time.  The process uses your Wi-Fi connection to download settings, content and data.  If you had a lot of content on your device, this can take a while.  The restore screen should give you estimates at each stage of the restore process, starting with restoring the settings and then booting into the iPad.  When the iPad home screen appears, the device will continue the restore process by downloading all of your applications.
    If you are restoring from a backup because you have run into problems with your device that can only be solved by restoring it, you can first choose your latest backup. If you still have problems, you can move on to the next latest backup, repeating the process until (hopefully) the problem is cleared."
    THANK YOU edgar999!!!!

  • I can't purchase any apps on my iPhone 5 with iTunes but I can purchase music?

    I have tried everything to get my ITunes to connect to my Apple Account but it will not! I have even synced it twice to my PC and it still won't recognize my apple Account   Could some

    I am guessing you cannot connect to the iTunes app on your iPhone to make purchases.  It's a bit hard to tell from your post and your title, as the English really needs help.
    Anyway, if that's the case, you likely have restrictions set on your iPhone.  Check Settings > General > Restrictions.

  • Help  I have installed and reinstalled iTunes but it will not open.  I get an error telling me that windows DEP will not allow the program to run and i can not shut the DEP off for the program.  i need to reset my ipod touch and cant cause of this.

    I have tried to shut off the DEP for the program but it is not allowed.  I can't get to any of my music on my computer because of this.  I use windows vista and was able to use ITunes until the upgrade to 10.2.  now i can't even open the program and it is getting me very upset.  Please someone help me.

    Many thanks.
    That suggests that another application has stashed old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
    So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • Unable to download new apps on iPad, iPhone, and in iTunes

    I download LOTS of apps and they are all still working fine. Last weekend I tried to download a few new apps and they wouldn't download. (This also happens with updates.) On my iPad they would load 3/4 of the way and start over...and over again. On my computer they would download to the end and start over several times and the fourth time, they would restart. "File corrupted .err=1000000" came up and then the message "To redownload the file, choose check for downloads". It's the same story on the iPhone as the iPad. Also, when I am on the computer in iTunes and I try to delete the apps that won't download, I highlight them and hit delete, they go, only to have them return again...so, I can't eliminate them.
    Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

    For your MB, go under the Apple Menu and select 'Software Update'.
    For your iOS device, using iTunes and with the device connected, click the 'Check for Updates' button on your main 'Summary' page.
    That should update your MB to 10.6.5 and your iOS devices to 4.2.1. That's assuming you have devices that can handle the latest versions of the software. Some older iOS devices can't upgrade and are stuck at lower software versions.

  • I'm trying to update my iPhone 4 through iTunes but says I'm not connected to the internet when I am.

    Hello everyone,
    I have the iPhone version 4.3.3 and I want to update to the latest iPhone software. With this version, I can only update through iTunes. When I plug in my phone to my computer and select the update option through iTunes, it sends an error messsage reading that I need to be connected to the internet to update my phone. My phone and my computer are both connected to wifi at the times I try to update, so I don't understand why I keep getting that message.
    I've talked to my phone company and they said it probably has to deal with iTunes, but they were not sure. I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, but it still didn't work. Does anyone have a clue as to what is going on and also what I can do to update my phone?
    Thank you so much!

    how do i sync apps to my iPhone 4S using itunes without losing aps already installed on the phone but with a different apple ID, and i dont have the apple ID??

    How have you managed to get apps on your phone that are tied to a different and unknown AppleID?
    If these apps were not purchased by you, having them is effectively software piracy and you should purchase them using your own AppleID if you want to keep hem.

    Try syncing the iPhone to iTunes. If it doesn't appear, then log in to your account and check Purchased.
    You're in the Mac App Store Community, if my suggestion doesn't work, then repost in https://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes/itunes_store

    Return the iPhone and get your money back. It has been
    hacked/modified/jailbroken and likely cannot be made

    Can you start Firefox in [[Safe mode]] ?
    You can also do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    You can initially skip the step to create a new profile, that may not necessary for this issue.

    Looking for a Dictation App for my Iphone and MacBook Pro.
    Want to send all dictation to Word.
    I have Dragon.  Should I purchase Dragon Premium or Dragon for Mac?

    Care to share which OS you are using?
    OS has its own dictation program. 
    Should I purchase Dragon Premium or Dragon for Mac?
    Only you can make that determination.  Read the system requirements for both and read the reviews.

  • Somehow my wife has ended up with some of my apps on her iPhone, and I have some of her apps on my iPhone.  So, when I update apps on my phone, some of them ask me for her apple ID password. How do I get her apps off my phone.

    Do you guys use the same computer with itunes on it? And the best way to get them off is to go into the Setting>Itunes & App Store and sign out of her appleid if it's listed there. Also just delete all of the apps from her appleid off your phone.
