I have bought an iPhone 4 from my sister. How do I reset it (delete her contacts) and load my contents etc?

Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings
Then set the device up from scratch using your data - either sync with your computer via iTunes or iCloud.

  • TS1474 What am I doing wrong? I move content from a cd to my iTunes library on the computer, but when I try to load a song on my iPhone, the red circle appears and I can't do it, even though I have sync-ed the devices.  Any solutions?

    I am frustrated!  I add content to my iTunes library from a cd, then find that I am unable to load it.  When I click and drag an item to my device, the red NO symbol appears and I am unable to load it onto my phone, although I have synced the devices.  I AM able to do this without issue on another computer.  Help!

    The number of devices authorized on an account and the number that an iPhone can sync to are two different things. You can now authorize up to 5 computers or 10 devices to play your content, but still an iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch can only be tied to one computer at a time. You can copy content from other computers to the computer used for syncing, and get it on the iPhone that way.
    Connect the phone to that computer, whichever you want to be the "master" of the iPhone. Click on its name in iTunes. On the right there is a Summary screen. Scroll down it and you will see several checkboxes. One of them is "Manually manage music and videos". If this is checked you must drag content from iTunes to the iPhone. If you have a large library, however, this can be cumbersome.
    The alternative is to leave this box unchecked, and instead click on the "Music" tab when the phone is connected. You can then just check the content you want on the phone, by artist, genre, title, playlist, etc. After checking you click the "Update" or "Sync" button and everything you have checked syncs automatically.

  • I have hundreds of songs that reside on my iPhone 4.  When I bought an iPhone 5S, the only songs that downloaded were those that I purchased from iTunes.  The other songs were all legitimately loaded from CD's that I owned.  Why have they been excluded, a

    I have hundreds of songs that reside on my iPhone 4.  When I upgraded to an iPhone 5S, only 75 songs loaded (those bought from iTunes).  What happened to the rest of my songs which all came fro  CDs I had purchased and downloaded to my phone???

    They are still in iTunes on your computer..
    unless you deleted them.
    When I upgraded to an iPhone 5S,
    When you first started up your iPhone 5S, did you Restore from backup and select the iPhone 4 backup?
    This will put all the info that was on the iPhone 4, onto the iPhone 5S.

  • HT1338 I have just bought a new Mac Pro after my old one died after nearly 10 years. I have most of my music backed up on CDs, but when i load them into iTunes they are only identified as Track 1, 2, etc. Can I transfer from my iPod and how?

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

    For music that you've purchased from Apple that are on your iPhone you should be able to copy to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. Also if you are in the US then you should be able to re-download past music purchases for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    For your own music that you've copied, then if you haven't got a backup on, for example, external drives or CDs/DVDs then you could see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still exist and work

  • I have two iTunes accounts, can I load content from both onto iPhone

    I had an iPod from a couple years ago and and I have an iPhone now. They are under two different iTunes and apple id's. The IPod was stolen from me recently and I was wondering if I can get everything from my iPods account onto iPhone?

    No.  You cannot consolidate.
    Sorry.

  • I recently had to switch with my sister from Mac to PC, and I have all my songs, apps, movies,etc. on my iTunes on my mac. How do I transfer the contents of the other library to my new computer?

    I really want to transfer all my content of my iTunes library like apps for my iPhone and also music to my new library on my new PC computer. Is there any way that I can do this?

    Copy the entire iTunes Media folder in My Documents>My Music>iTunes and put it in the same location on your new computer. Then open iTunes and go to File>Add to library, and select all the stuff there that you want to add to your iTunes.

  • I have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    i have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.it works on my iphone 5 & it originally worked on my ipad.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
    On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed.

  • HT201232 my sister gave me her old iphone 5 that was bought in UK, i already restored it and insert a new sim card to set it up new but i couldn't activate it. Can you help me? i'm from Philippines and just a new user for iPhone.

    iPhone 5
    16GB
    iOS8.3
    i'm a new user on iPhone. My sister gave me her old iPhone that she bought in UK, she she it here in the Philippines and i'm having problems because i can't use it. i already restored it to set it up new but i couldn't still activate it. It says, " Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached." and "The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information."
    what should i do for me to be able to use it?
    please help!
    Thank you very much!

    It is locked to your sisters carrier.
    She would have to ask her carrier if they unlock iPhones and if she qualifies for this service.

  • HT3939 A5****7CB this is my iPhone serial number, which my friend has bought for me from china. It was sealed pack. But now I have problem operating my phone. As I can't change the language of App Store. Secondly there is no option in setting where I can

    I want to know whether this is real or fake!
    As I can't find the option "iTunes and App Store" in settings, which my iPhone 4S has.
    This is an iPhone 5. Bought from china.

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

  • HT5085 I have lots of music stored on my PC in itunes both purchased and loaded from CDs how do I get this onto my ipad or iphone

    I have loads of music both purchased and loaded from my CDs stored in itunes on my PC Im running Windows XP, the music is also on my ipod Nano.
    How do I get the library complete onto my ipad and iphone.   I have also purchased Cloud storage with Knowhow but cant get the music to go from my external hard drive into the LIvedrive briefcase without a copy going onto the hard drive on my computer, which I dont want as it doesnt have the capacity to store the music.

    Correct, it will only be one-level, the Photos app doesn't support sub-albums - the sub-folders photos will be included in the parent's album.
    If you select My Pictures at the top of the Photos tab when syncing, then you should get an album for each folder that is directly under it - so if I understand correctly what you described then that would mean an album for 2013, one for 2012 etc. And each of those should include all the photos in the subfolders under it - so 2013 would include the photos from the events and months subfolders under it.
    You can't sync them separately, only the contents of the last sync remains on the iPad, by not including a folder in the next photo sync you are effectively telling iTunes that you no longer want that folder/album on the iPad so it will be removed and be replaced by the contents of the new sync (you can't delete synced photos directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next sync).
    The app that I use, Photo Manager Pro, allows you to select and copy a folder (via FTP), but you would need to select each subfolder individually, which if you have a lot would be time-consuming (I think that if you select '2013' it would ignore the folders beneath it).

  • HT2729 Why can't I sync my flim That I have already bought from my iPhone to my iPad

    Why can't I sync my flim that I have already bought for my I phone4 to my new iPad 2

    I'm having the same issue and the books I'm wanting to sync are checked. It worked on previous audiobooks that I had. In fact, I just finished the two that I had loaded and want to load two more. I only keep two books (4 files) on the device to conserve space. I'm using an iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3.3. there is 3GB free on the iPhone and I don't get any errors when syncing. My music is syncing fine and the books that unchecked were removed from my phone.
    I just tried to resync with one of the books that had previously been on my phone. It will not reload on there either. Here's a screen shot of iTunes and below that is the screen shot from my phone after syncing. Thanks for any help.

  • How can I transfer music from my ipod classic 60GB to my iPhone 4 music library, just by song or whole CD that I have bought? Help needed!

    How can I transfer music from my ipod classic 60GB to my iPhone 4 music library, just by song or whole CD that I have bought? Help needed!

    load the current version of I tunes on the laptop and sync the pod.  Then sync the phone - you can select all or as much of the music you want to.
    Also - if the music on the pod was purchased from the itune store in the first place, you should be able to redownload it to the phone for free, as long as you are using the same apple id that it was bought with.
