    how can I transfer all my music and apps from my computer to my new iphone?

    This is one of the most basic of functions of the iPhone.  This is a good time for you to read the User Guide.  All the instructions on how to operate yor phone are included.  I suggest you read through it.

  • Hi i just buy a macbook how can i transfer all my musics and apps from my iphone to my new itune?

    hi i just buy a macbook how can i transfer all my musics and apps from my iphone to my new itune?

    1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.

  • How can i sync all my music and playlists from my iphone to my new computer

    how can i sync all my music and playlists from my iphone to my new computer

    Yes.  You can sync everything that is currently on your iPod Touch to your newer one. Just plug it in and sync it like you did with the old one.
    If you want to retain your App data, see this article for information on backing up your current iPod Touch and restoring the backup onto a new one.

    If you purchase the iPad, keep in mind that some Apps may not be compatible with it.

  • How can I restore all my apps and pictures on my iPhone from iCloud?

    I recently lost my iphone and got a new one. Can anybody help me how to retrieve all my apps and pictures from my old iPhone to my new one. I backed it up on iCloud. Thank you!
    Edited: I backed it up and I only retrieved my contacts and music playlist.

    Backing up does not restore anything, it simply makes a backup of the content on the device.
    I suspect you intended that you synced the device as this would put contacts and media from iTunes back on the device.

  • HT204085 How can we delete all the data from iphone keychain of all the apps?

    Is it possible to delete all the data from keychain? Cleaning keychain, which delete all the item stored in keychain of all the applications on iDevices. Programatically can we do it?

    Depends whether you have selected Lock when Full or Wrap when Full for the Buffer Mode. If you have selected Lock When Full, the capture will stop when the the buffer is full. You can then Save the Buffer and download it in the form of sniffer file and start you capture again. This will over write the old data. If you have selected Wrap when Full, then it will continue the capture when the buffer is full. The oldest packets are discarded as new packets arrive.

  • Instagram folder in Camera Roll (iOS 8.1.2 on iPhone 5S) - how can I recover ALL the photos that were saved there?

    Hello everyone,
    I'm trying to get back the larger photos saved by Instagram on my phone since I started using IG (the "save original photo" option). I want to print the photos, and the ones I get by downloading from Instagram are too small...
    It automatically saves them, but it does not keep them. Now the folder contains just one photo, from 2 days ago - and I cannot understand how many can be kept and for how long; and/or how can I set this up to keep all of them.
    Do you have any idea about this, any suggestion? I googled it, but nothing comes up...
    Thanks!

    Good question for instagram since you're using a 3rd party software.
    You can also look at your instagram settings when you open the app.

    I have an iPhone 4s, but wifi the option is greyed out. The wifi stopped working on it months ago. Now I wanted to erase all content and setting from my old 4s and it will not connect to the internet, because the cellular data is no longer connected, since I bought a new iPhone 5c. I can't erase my phone by pluggin it into my Macbook Pro, since I can't disable the "Find my iPhone" App without internet. How do I erase all the data and setting on my 4s without connecting to the internet? It is running ios 7

    I just did it. To enter DFU mode, I had to use "method 3" on this post
    http://thebigboss.org/guides-iphone-ipod-ipad/dfu-mode
    Too bad my 4S is 2 years old. Wifi is dead. I had to upgrade to 5S, but 5S is soooooo much faster than 4S so it's kind of good outcome. Without the 4S breaking down, a stingy person like me would have never upgraded the phone.

  • How can I erase all photos from my iPhone with ios 8?

    I want to clean up my iPhone 5 before creating a back up so I can restore my new iPhone 6 with a clean backup. I only want to retain text messages, email accounts etc. but do not want my photos. How can I erase all the photos in my iPhone using ios 8?
    Any help is much appreciated

    To delete all of the photographs from your device, do the following:
    Open Photos.
    Open the Photos tab.
    If the Moments view isn't visible, then switch to it by zooming in.
    Press Select.
    Select each group of photographs.
    Press the delete button and then confirm the action.

  • My friend borrowed my old iPhone 4. I wanted to erase all the data but I dont have a password and my friend doesnt know his password. How can I erase the data without using a password?

    My friend borrowed my iPhone. I want to sell the iPhone, but first I have to erase all the data that belong too my friend. I don't know his password and he doesn't know either. Is it possible to erase the data without using a password?
    thanks!

    You need the password if it is iCloud locked you won't be able to activate the phone for use.
    As long as he remembers his email,  you can reset the password
    If you forgot your Apple ID password
    or Forgot Apple ID
    https://iforgot.apple.com/appleid
    If it is a lock screen password, you can do a restore.
    Hold down power and home for 10 seconds and release power but keep holding down home. iTunes will say your phone is in recovery mode so you can restore it.

  • Multiple calendars have appeared on my Iphone and I am unable to sync all of them to my PC, running Windows 7 and Office 2010. How can I sync all the calendars to my PC, or, merge the calendars on the Iphone so there is only 1 calendar to sync?

    Multiple calendars have appeared on my Iphone and I am unable to sync all of them to my PC, running Windows 7 and Office 2010. How can I sync all the calendars to my PC, or, alternatively, merge the calendars on the Iphone so there is only one calendar to sync?

    If the hard drive that crashed is the one that stored the itunes library, be sure to restore the library from Time Machine (mac) or whatever backup you use on windows.  That will get back your music.  I suspect that the replacement drive has an empty itunes library and thus, perhaps, the itunes match used that to sync to its servers.
    Try posting in the iTunes Match forum, you'll probably find more knowledgeable folks there.
