Got a new iPhone that I've been using for about a month now, so the question is how can I get the pictures from my old iPhone and keep the pictures I have on the new iPhone?

Connect old iPhone to computer and save the pictures on computer.
Connect new iPhone and sync the pictures to your new iPhone.

Enable iCloud on both, and Calendars on the iPhone should sync with iCal on the Mac wirelessly.

Not going to happen the way you want it to.
When you add a gift card balance to the Apple ID, it's available for the Apple ID.
Probably best to create unique Apple ID's for each... this will also make things easier in the future as purchases are eternally tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with.

Can I replace my land line with an iPhone and keep the same phone number? Thanks.

Hi, Can I replace my land line with an iPhone and keep the same AT&T phone number? Thanks.

Hi
There are always some wrinkles in this kind of change. If you have a home security system like ADT they require a land-line for their system to work. This less of an issue in apartments and condos - it's mostly a "house" issue.
Before you make the switch (and there may be a switching fee) just make sure you cover all the bases.
Cheers

HT4623 I tried updating to iOS6 via itunes bc my storage space was pass limit and now my phone is telling me it's in recovery mode and I need to restore it. I didn't back it up. How do I take it out of recovery mode and keep the information on my phone?

You cannot. If it is in recovery mode, the data is already gone.
Did you fail to make sure everything was on your computer before updating?

My husband and I are separated, but still using the same App Store account. Is there any way I can create a new account but keep the apps (and, more importantly, the data in those apps)?

I have budgeting and home management apps that contain lots of data and I would like to retain these apps and the data when we split our App Store accounts. Is there any way to do that? I don't want to have to go and buy the apps again - this includes all the kids' games that we bought on the account.

Thanks. Well I retain the data if I purchase the app again?
That depends on the app and where the app's data are stored. I think if you back up the phone, delete the app, purchase it again using your Apple ID, then restore the backup you will get your data back. But I cannot guarantee it.

HT3529 i used to be able to send pictures so other people on my iphone to others who dont have an iphone and recently the pictures have not been sending, why is that?

I never had a problem sending pictures to other people from my iphone when they do not have an iphone but recently, my pictures wont go through to a non iphone user...how do i fix this?

are you getting an error when sending them or are they just not recieving the pictures?

I need to take my computer in for service, can I use Master Password to keep the tech from seeing them or am I better off deleting them?

My question says it all...if I use Master Password will it keep a "nosy" tech out of my list of sites/usernames/and passwords or should I delete all of them after making a copy off computer so they don't have access? When the computer is returned I need to go to each site and reenter the information

If you put a password, it should keep most nosy people off your PC. Or, you can always simply back up your current profile on like a thumb drive, etc. Then delete your current one. when you get the PC back, just put your old profile back. You can read [[Backing up your information]] for instructions on how to do this.

Dear sir. I am using my iPhone 5 in UAE now . I want to use my iPhone 5 in my country Bangladesh during December 2013 . Please be inform that it is possible to use ? Any country lock have in iPhone 5 ? If any country lock available how can I use ?

Please give me advice , if I want to use my iPhone 5 in different countries any country lock available or not

Talked to Vodafone. They said that if my phone is indeed unlocked that theoretically I should be able to stop into one of their stores and pick up a prepaid (PAYGO) sim and it will work. The only problem is, they don't have any prepaid sims yet. Hopefully they will when I arrive there in 2 weeks. I may pick up a nano sim cutter just in case they don't.

We had one family apple id. I want to keep all devices on the same apple id for itunes but separate for everything else on the cloud. How can I change the other apple ids now? We have 3 iphones and an ipad.

Hi, thank you for this post. I hope you might be able to help me too?
I am relatively new to apple (have an iPad) and having been a PC user for years I was pleasantly surprised with the apple experience and am now trying to work out the best set up for me, my husband and young son as I am buying them both of them apple products this Christmas. New Mac laptop/ ipad for hubby and then an ipod touch for my son oh and a new mac laptop for me. We are also thinking of moving from Blackberries to iPhones. Yes we seem to be hooked! but i am unsure about the home family set up and how to replace my PC network that I run off an 8TB server.
In reading the forums I keep seeing people talk about problems they have with two apple IDs and trying to merge them. I have also heard about a family ID allowing us to share apps legally. I am really nervous of setting us up wrong and then having problems later and hence i am now looking for some advice on how to share as much as we can legally but also make usage practical and not invading each others privacy. thoughts so far:
Music - I think we are happy to share the same music and access using one ID (we currently don't buy much music from apple but have lots of CDs we share).
Photos - It would be nice to share photos - as long as my son or husband cannot accidentally delete photos of mine (which is my biggest concern). I currently load all camera photos onto my 8TB storage box as the network owner and my husband has full access to copy any photo to his laptop but can never delete the original copies by accident.
Apps - If possible i would like us to share these but they are cheap enough these days to separate if really needed. Would be good to share licence for pages etc though
cloud, contacts, facetime, email - this is what is making me consider separate IDs or learning how to have multiple users in one apple ID - I do not want to have to share synced contacts with my husband. I have near 300 contacts now through work etc and he will not want them plus i will not want his or him being able to delete mine by mistake. and then for email and facetime, well I want to give him his privacy so I do not receive his messages etc. especially now that we are considering switching to iPhones
Then last but not least, i don't know the best solution for my son. he is only 7 years old so even though I don't want to pay for things again I don't want him being able to download "just any" app from the purchased icon in Appstore. Also, is there a child friendly setting to prevent him from viewing inappropriate content on the internet?
Appreciate I have asked a lot of questions here but I am looking for any genuine advice out there. Thank you or other potential advisers in advance.

HT3819 I am a teacher. I have an iPhone and iPad for personal use. I also have an iPod and now an iPad for school use. Would it be best for me to use home sharing on all 4 devices, or should I split my account and have separate accounts for home & schoo

My first i device was an iPod touch that I was given for use in my classroom. Then I got an iPhone for personal use. Both items are listed under the same username and account. Since then I now have 2 iPads, one for home and one for work. I have many apps that are only for work like Math Zombie and Science Facts, and many that are for personal use, like Facebook and YouVersion. I know that I can synch each device and tell iTunes which apps go on which device. However at home I use a Mac, and my school computer is a PC. I am wondering if I should split my account and keep personal separate from work. Then I can synch all school related devices on the PC and home devices on the Mac. I realize that there maybe the rare occaision that I might want one app for both accounts. That's the chance I take on splitting my account. Are there ay benefits one way or the other?

Will you be the person paying for apps on both accounts?
Are you the only person that will use both of the iPads?
Is there a chance students will be using the work iPad and if so, do you want personal data stored on it?
If you're the only one using it I'd keep the same account just to have the flexibility of having access to everything on all devices. If your students will be using it or if the school is paying for the school apps I'd keep separate accounts. It all depends on how often you will use school apps from home, and home apps at school. Just some things to consider...

I'm new to Mac. I have an iPhone and a Mac Mini. My original iTunes was on a Windows computer that crashed. So, all of my iTunes Music and Movies are gone. How do I get the movies and music from my iPhone to the new Mac Mini?

If you still have the crashed Win computer, you may be able to recover your music and movies from the hard drive. If you have a friend with a hard drive USB connection kit and a PC, they should be able to help. Otherwise, check locally for computer services that might do that for you (I think Best Buy Geek Squad may be able to help). If the drive itself is in good shape, it shouldn't be too expensive.
