I have an ipad 1 and an iphone 4s, how do I manage these in iTunes given that they are different ios versions (5 and 6)?
My iPhone 4s is on iOS 6 and that is fine (with various known issues of course). My iPad is using iOS 5 and does not support iOS 6, and here lies the problem.
iTunes suggests updates to my Apps, some of which become iOS 6 only making them unusable on my iPad. I can't transfer these iOS 5 compatible versions of the Apps to iTunes because they are seen as older, and if I remove them from the iPad I can no loinger install them as I can't run iOS 6 on the iPad.
This is madness and very poor design by Apple whereby their closed management tools (iTunes) cannot actually manage a situation they have crerated themselves.
If I could at least identify which Apps in my library where iOS 6 only, I could feasibly try to locate these in my Time Machine backups and keep them manually backed up for my iPad, but Apple haven't even though tof allowing me to do this. Or perhaps they have in a hiddne feature somehow!!
Does anyone know if there is a way to identify Apps that only support iOS 6?
Even if this required a terminal search for a string within .plist files or something.
Help, my iPad is losing functionality by the day...
Thanks
Chris
And I can't find this "on this page" item people are talking about.

I have an ipad 2, ios7 will not download. I keep getting an error message that just tells me ios wont install, however it does not tell me why. Any suggestions? Thanks
I find the Air easier to work with if I need a keyboard if, for no other reason, that's more compact to carry around than the iPad and a keyboard, even one that is part of an iPad case. I also often have to access data from one application when using another, and iOS is not at its best when having to do rapid application switching (Command-Tab switching is a lot faster than the double press home, scroll the icons at the bottom and swap).
As well, for editing I find the lack of sandboxing on OSX allows for efficiency enhancing utilities across applications, something you don't get in iOS. I understand the reason for that, but while more secure it also creates issues of its own in terms of usability in a number of situations.
I prefer the iPad for totally single application focused situations where little or no input is required. I use my iPad to hold copies of manuals when I'm doing a full day continuing education presentation for CPAs. A MacBook Aire can't really fill in very easily for that usage.
I see them each as tools appropriate for different jobs. -
Since I upgraded to Elements 13, I have lost all my filters from 3rd party. How can I install them in version 13 that still are installed in version 11 and 12?
A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

How can I get GV and HDV files imported to Premier Elements 13. I know now that they are not supported. But does it exist ways to get them. I use camera HDR-HS7E?

What is this HDR-HS7E - a miniDV camcorder that lets you do DV and HDV capture firewire?
True, the DV and HDV capture firewire into the Premiere Elements 13 Capture window is gone. But, have you
looked at the workaround suggested by PRE_help in this forum. The workaround is found in the following
Adobe document....

When your schedule permits, please let us know if that worked for you.
Thank you.

My imac won't pick up the printer either. Even after I updated it's software. My ipad is new. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
No change. The printer still doesn't show up on my devices even though they are all on the same network. On the printer's connection print out the connection reads Pass and that the network is working correctly. However, then it states "*A router/access point channel conflict has been detected. If you have problems printing or scanning, Improve your wireless network environment." "*If the problems persist, see your documentation for help and networking tips."
I've gone through all the documentation and still can't figure out what the problem is. I've had the router checked out by my building and they claim everything is in order. I have a excellent signal. -

my iphone, macbook, and imac email accts are all set up as imap accts but I have to treat email individually on each device. SSL is off but server port numbers are different. how should this be setup so that what I do on my laptop email is automatically done on the iphone and imac?
That can only be done if you have an IMAP or exchange email account. POP3 accounts won't sync changes across your devices. If you have a POP3 account you can ask your email provider if they have an IMAP option. If not, you would need to switch to an IMAP account such as iCloud email, Gmail or Yahoo.

I just got a message on my computer and my phone that an ex girlfriend of mine's phone was just added to my imessage account. For obvious reasons, I'm not okay with that. I just messaged her on facebook and double checked if the name of the phone sent to me is the label of her phone, and it was. She then sent me a screen shot of her phone's imessage settings page though saying that its only connected to her account. I dont believe that she is lying to to me, but I dont believe my computer is either. Is there a way I can double check what devices are linked to my accccount and remove one if need be?
Hi Connor,
The only "accounts" on iMessage are the accounts you have set up. Open iMessage, from the top toolbar click on Messages>Preferences>Accounts
There you will see what accounts are set up on your iMessage app. If your ex-girlfriend is still set up in your Contacts, you may want to remove her from there.
Cheers,

I have windows main computer and a new mac laptop. I have all the right buttons clicked and have looked at tons of help pages but neither computer is registering that this one is on the same home share network. There is no shared folder option. Therefore I can't get any of my old music onto my new laptop. Help
Is both computer on the same local network?
Is both computer iTunes authorize with the same AppleID (iTunes menu Store)?
Is Mac iTunes menu Advanced > Turn On Home Sharing, On? (Same AppleID again)

Correct, there's no shared folder option.
If the above are done right and both computer iTunes are up and running, you'll see in iTunes left panel the iTunes library of the other computer iTunes library. -

I have three iPads and one iPod and one iPhone. How can I message between them without sending the message to all of them. You send the message to your email address but all of them are set up under one account.
You can have a different receiving email in the Messages app on each device : Settings > Messages > Receive At . I'm not sure that there is a different way to have the message only go to one device.

i have an ipad an a iphone im selling my ipad and wanna erase all the content but was wondering if i erase everything will it take that stuff ofmy phone to? i dont want to loss my photos
Be sure your photos and any other important data/media/pictures
are backed up - iCloud, DropBox, some service of your choice.
If your only copy is on the iPhone and the iPhone is lost/stolen/broken,
you lose your photos, etc. -
i have an ipad 2 an iphone 4 and run a windows pc i want to push all my current emails and folders if possible to both devices using icloud or any other option available
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... -
Why will my iPad 2 not recognize any iPod cables? I have tried two different cables in both the wall and in my laptop, but it will not register that it is receiving power, nor will the laptop recognize that they are connected.
Crizzo is right, the best way to charge is with the included power block. That said, the USB cords are interchangable as far as an of us know. (just not power bricks, iPhone and iPod bricks put out 5W of power, the iPad wants 10W and will always say 'not charging' if plugged into less power than it requires even though it will charge, just very slowly)
If you have tried to charge your iPad - with the iPad charger - with multiple cables and multiple computers and get no joy then it's time to head to the apple store and have them check it out. The 30 pin USB port can go bad - mine did - and it's a manufacturer's defect (unless there's any sort of obvious damage) and should be covered under the warranty;
