I got the new iPhone 4 but can't put my music on it because it says I need Mac OS X 10.5
I am trying to put the music from my iTunes account on my MacBook Pro onto my iPhone 4 and it says I must install the new version of iTunes. When I try to install the new version of iTunes it says I can't because I don't have Mac OS X 10.5.
Specs on the box the iPhone came in and the website for the iPhone:
Mac system requirements
Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
iTunes 10.1 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
iTunes Store account
Internet access
Don't meet one of those?
Then why would you be surprised it doesn't work?
The only solution is update whatever you need to to meet those specs.

Hi - I've brought my iphone 5 but cant seem to download my music from my itunes account onto it. I've downloaded the latest version of itunes as i heard this could be a problem but still no joy. The phone tries to sync when i plug it all in to the pc and even has the capacity bar showing about 12gb of audio but there is still nothing downloaded onto the phone.
The only thing i can see that might be causing the problem is that when i go into my itunes account it doesn't show that the iphone 5 is an option is the 'managed device' section but i dont know how i can add the new iphone 5 to this....
Can anyone please advise me on what to do ?
Many thanks !
RazorYou can only sync to one computer/iTunes library. To make this your syncing computer:

I got new iPhone 5 can't figure out how to make one of the songs from my music playlist a ringtone
There are many apps in the App Store, which you can download (many are free) that will let you take a song on your phone and turn it into a ringtone. Virtually all of them will require that once you've made the clip, you do something like email it to yourself, then connect your phone to your computer, save it iTunes, then sync it to your ringtones library on your phone. Go to the App Store and type in Ringtone. Lot's of options will appear.

Just upgraded to the new iPhone 4S, but can't seem to find Siri, even though I did as instructed!
Hi,
I have just upgraded to Iphone 4S. Very nice and as expected from Apple.
One of the applications I am keen on is Siri, however when I tried to hold the home button, instead of getting Siri, like I thought I was, I got the old voice control screen.
I know that Siri is in Beta, but does that mean it is not on Iphone 4S yet?
Thanks
AlexI had same problem.
go into settings and under General is an option for Siri, i had to turn it on. -
my iphone 4 was backed up but my contacts did not move over to my iphone 4s anyone know how to get my contacts back
If you're using your phone as recommended, your contacts reside on your computer in Outlook, Address Book, or with a cloud service. Just synch your contacts to your phone from your computer or cloud service.

can't access my backup to store on new phone. i see that it was backed up yesterday at 1:39 got the new iPhone 6 my contacts came over but none of my pictures
What photos are you referring to? Are these photos that are in the Camera Roll and Photo Stream albums on the device you backed up, or are they in different albums? Are you signed onto the new phone with the same iCloud ID? Are the Photo Stream photos ones that have been taken in the past 30 days?
When you set up the new phone did you set it up using that backup?
Cheers,

I recently deleted iTunes off my computer by accident, when I reinstalled it I got the new version and I can't figure out how to get my music to store on my iTunes to transfer from my iPhone to my iTunes. I goal is to get my iPod filled with the music that I have stored on my iPhone and figured the only way to do so is to use iTunes as my transfer hub. Any suggestions?
Wow you're kind of a iTunes bully. Dude the reason I am asking for advice and help is I am completely computer ********. If I knew the answer I wouldn't be asking. Anyways. Question to anyone else.
If I have no music on my iTunes at all and no music on my computer, hard drive or any other version of storage yet there is a playlist on my iPhone. While my iPhone is plugged into my PC and my iTunes is up, is there a way to swap my playlist from my iPhone to my iTunes? Directly? Without downloading some new media source or backing up my old media source from my history. The reason everything was deleted (iTunes and media source) was due to the size of everything and space it was requiring. I am simply trying to get 233 songs from A to B.
I have tried magic but it is not working.

I have Mac itunes and a touch 2G. My wife has Win7 and touch 4G (both iOS 4.2.1). She got a new iphone, I now have her touch 4G, and am trying to sync it to my Mac itunes. The music and videos sync to the 4G, but apps & podcast will not. All are checked to sync. During sync, it gets to "determining apps to sync" then immediately goes to "finished syncing". No apps or podcasts from my Mac itunes are on the touch 4G.
You can only sync to one iTunes library but you can manage music and videos among different computer/libraries.
It appears that you are trying to sync with a different library.
- If you want to make the Mac you syncing computer:
--- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by:
iOS: How to back up
--- Restore the iPod from that backup. Note that synced media like apps and music are not in included in the backup. -
I have got the new iPhone 5 and the iOS inside is suppose to have the facebook integration, i have upgraded to the latest version, now i get the facebook option in my notification centre, but i thougth i was going to get all the notifictaion , but sadly i have to log on to fb application to get all my notification updates , nothing is notifyied to me , is there a way to make this happen ??, if yes please help me out , i have tried all the options but doesnt seem to work im afraid ..
Good.
Three things come to mind:
1. I think you're implying when you travel away from your home to a more populated area, the cellular coverage improves and your iPhone works well. Is that right?
2. Do you have a case or some other obstruction over or near your iPhone's antenna? Have you tried moving or removing any possible obstructions near the antenna?
3. AT&T has a (free) app in the App Store called "Mark the Spot". You can use this app to report voice and/or data issues to AT&T, as well as keep up on progress they may be making in improving coverage in your area. Your trouble reports are geotagged (if you wish). -

You would need to buy a new operating system (Snow leopard 10.6.x, or higher).
Before doing that, it would be best to check to see if your Mac can run the higher operating system.
Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..." Copy and paste the information into a reply here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present). -
My husband and I share music in one itunes account for both of our iphones. We just got the new iphone 5s's and iin ttryinngto back up our old phones I have realized we SHARE one icloud as well. Can I create him a new icloud for pictures, contacts etc
You can have one icloud account and a different itunes account on the phone. I have my icloud account and a shared itunes account. He does not have to use the new icloud account as is ID in itunes and app store. He can keep using the old one.

Hello Sophie59
You should be able to see two different tabs when setting up the email if you go to Other > Add Mail Account. Once you enter in the email address and password, you should be at the next screen to provide more details about the email as far as incoming and outgoing servers and at the top there will be a blue section to add it in as a POP or IMAP email account. Check out the article below for further troubleshooting and emails setup options.

I just got the new itunes and I can open itunes and see my music but whenI try and go to the itunes store it just loads to a white page. I try and refresh and go to the home page and nothing happens. I can sign into my account and the tabs for the itunes store pop up like they normally would when browsing the itunes store but when I click on one of them, it is a blank page. Is there a setting I need to change? Does it just take an extremely long time to load? Please help!!
