I can't transfer my music fromitunes to my iphone,i've read everything and watched all the youtube videos but nothing helped. Please help.
Hi, whenever I try to transfer music from the itunes to my iPhone 5s it wont work. It simply does not let me drag the music, sinc my music or add it. I have tried everything I have found on the internet. Please help. Thanks
Hi Johnrjohnr,
Here are some images to help you out. Please be sure to first plug your iPhone in or enable "Sync with this iPhone over WiFi" and be running the latest version of iTunes.
1) Select your device from the upper-left corner of iTunes (your application may appear slightly different on a Windows computer). To erase your iPhone, select "Restore iPhone" in the Summary tab of your device. Erasing your iPhone will remove ALL data - including photos, contacts, apps, etc. If you choose to do this, be sure to back up your information to iCloud, iTunes, or another service of your choosing. All apps, movies, music, etc. that you have purchased through iTunes will be available to install immediately after the restore.
2) Remain on the Summary tab. Scroll to the bottom of the screen where you will find the Device Options List. To drag and drop songs to your iPhone, "Manually manage music and videos" must be checked. The remaining items are optional.
3) It appears I was mistaken on the "Advanced" menu, my apologies. It is no longer in iTunes (I believe it was removed with iTunes 11). The option is now located under Store -> "Authorize This Computer..." Selecting this will give your computer full permission to access any content you have purchased through iTunes. I have not personally used podcasts in a few years, but I'd imagine it will apply as well. Sign in using the Apple ID that you have purchased content with and you should have unrestricted access. Keep in mind that you may have up to 5 authorized computers at any given time. To authorize a 6th computer, you will need to go to one of the other machines and select "Deauthorize This Computer..."
I hope this has been of some help to you. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Good Luck!

Hi. My Ipod Touch switched off in the gym during exercise (got wet or battery wend down). I tried all the troubleshooting hints but nothing helps. It is not responding, not charging and is completely dead. I tried various charging from different sourches but nothing happens.
Any advice please?If you tried everythng here then it is time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. It appears you have a hardware problem.
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on -

Am unable to transfer/sync my "Notes" data from iPhone 6 to my MacAir and MacMini PC. Just doesn't work. Please advise.
regards / krishnakumar
Cochin/IndiaThere may be other ways, but the best way I've found is:
Set up an iCloud email account so that you can use the Notes part of this service. Note that I said "iCloud email" not "iCloud" ... you need to enable the email service of iCloud in order to get the iCloud Notes feature. Otherwise, the "Notes" app on your device will only store notes on your device, or maybe sync them with some other email account (e.g. Gmail, Yahoo ... but does so poorly IMO).
On your Macs, set up the same iCloud account as on your iPhone. Now that you've set up the email part of iCloud, you can enable the Notes feature of iCloud on your Macs.
Be sure to set iCloud as the default account to store your notes, in case you have other email services with a Notes feature.
New notes that you create on any device will sync to each other.
Notes that you created before doing all this cannot sync to your Macs, since the notes were not in iCloud. Just turning on iCloud Notes does not cause them to enter iCloud and sync -- you'd have to copy and paste them into a new note, after ensuring that iCloud is the default account for any new notes. -
I can't install ADE on my PC, because as I try to open it a message of error appears to me: The application will be closed. I've already try with different browsers and also with the manual installation, but nothing..
1
Close all iWork applications
2
Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
3
empty the trash
4
shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
5
Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install -
I can connect my Iphone 6 and Ipad Air to my Bose Soundlink but not my IMac. I have tried all the usual solutions but nothing works. It has worked recently but not in the last week. Help
make sure it's not being connected to by any of the other two
one can only connect 1 device at the time and just by waking up sometimes a headset connects to a device
automaticly
then forget the bluetooth device in OS X and put the headset in pairing mode / discovery mode and connect with it once again with the mac -

Trying to play music from my apple tv directly to speakers and at the same time watch tv. Now I'm not that advanced at technology so I kinda need the easiest way to do this. Now I see that the Apple tv has an optical audio output. Can I set that optical out to self powered speakers and then have regular RCA cables set out from the tv to the same speakers and watch the tv on mute, unless I want to turn it up for a moment. I want to be able to airplAy music through my apple tv but also put a game on at the same time if I have guest. I hope my question was clear enough, but that's the best that I can explain it. Oh by the way, I do not have one of those centrAl hub receiver where all the speakers are plugged into and where you can set different inputs and outputs out of it. Everything would be a direct connection.
yes. u dont need the tv. turn it off.
1. direct connection (optical or stereo cables) to your amplifier
2. use mac to play to atv, or iphone/ipod touch to remote control the atv. (wifi)
works as a charm, Ive done this for several years.. -
Can u transfer files via airdrop from a iphone 5 to a mac and vice a versa
hi,
can u transfer files via air drop from an iphone 5 to a mac air, and mac air to a iphone 5.I would like a constructive response, rather than an ascerbic one.
We have owned Iphones for a couple of years, and used photostream to copy photos to a PC...
Within the family, we have 2 ipod touch, 2 x iphone, 2 x ipad minis and 2x Ipad Air.
I have recently purchased a Mac desktop and would like to use this as a central backup and storage for all devices.
I have been made aware that photostream / Icloud will only do its thing and back up to the Mac whenever the designated account is open on the Mac. (so I must remember to ensure the account for each family member is opened at lease once a month)
SO, on one of the iphones, for example, we have over 900 photos in the photostream album. When connected to the Mac, only the last 30 days of photos are copied across (about 60 photos).
How can I transfer across the other 850 photos ?
I cannot copy them across to the camera roll on the iphone
I cannot access them from iphoto
the camera does not show itself as an " external drive" in Finder (Please note I am more acustomerd to using a PC).
Itunes only allows "sync" and "backup" of the phone but is not at all helpful. (No indication of what is is/has backed up or synced)
My Icloud is currently holding 12gb of my data, but the only info I KNOW is in the Icloud is my next dentist appointment.
I really wish to transfer these photos across, as I would also like to upgrade the ios software, but this needs a few gb of memory space, and, of course, the
These photos are visible within the iphone, but how do i get them transferred???
like I said at the beginning, constructive answers please. -
I've just upgraded iTunes and iOS 5.1. Suddenly iTunes has UNSELECTED every song in my music library. When I pick "Select All" from the drop-down menu, all the songs are HIGHLIGHTED, but none of them are CHECKED. I can't manually check every song in my library. How do I get iTunes to SELECT and CHECK songs in my Music Library?
thanks! got it. it's the command key. hold it down while checking one of the boxes and the rest of them will be checked.
