I have had the same itunes acct and the same music on my phone forever today when i went to sync my phone it threatened to delete all my music on my iphone for some reason. WHY did this happen?

The other day I bought another ipad, and I was asked if I want to scan my computer for media. I said yes and it took all the music off my computer and put it on my itunes. Now when I connect my iphone5 to itunes it says in order to synce you must delete all itunes off of this iphone.
*** is happening?

Ok,thanks but, I should be able to something so that I am able to sync the entire library again not just the purchased songs.
If the non purchased music is not on your computer, how can it Sync to your iPhone...

I have my ipad notes linked to gmail and suddenly disappeared when I put the sim card into a new iphone, the funny thing is that almost all disappeared except 4 and with different dates up to two years. Why did this happen? No way to recover them?

Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum. Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is. Apple is not here. It's users, like you.
If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.

I purchased a new iPhone and did the upload before but was unable to retrieve my photos from my iCloud download. Why did this happen and can it be fixed?0

I didn't receive my photos in the download on my new IPhone. Why did this happen and can it be corrected?

Are my pictures lost or can they be retrieved?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
To see if you have iCloud, open http://www.icloud.com and log in with your Apple ID. If you can access to iCloud, you have iCloud. If you get an error message or you can't access, you don't have iCloud. This only works if you only have the Mac (not an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad with iCloud).
Apart from that, "Find my Mac" must be turned on in the Mac in order to track it, so if it wasn't turned on, you won't be able to track it. If it was turned on, the computer must be connected to the Internet to be tracked.
If you can access to iCloud through http://www.icloud.com, choose "Find my iPhone" and look at the Devices list. If your MacBook Pro shows up, "Find my Mac" is turned on, so see if you can track it and tell to the police that it's possible to track your MacBook Pro

I recently saved my contacts in iCloud and now all of my contacts are on my daughters phone. I only wanted them saved to my PC. Why did this happen and how can I fix it? Is it because she downloaded the update to her phone?

Your daughter must have signed into your iCloud account, perhaps when she updated her phone. You can confirm this by going to Settings>iClloud on her phone and seeing if she is using the same iCloud ID.
To fix this you would need to migrate her phone to a separate iCloud account. To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos that she wishes to keep on your phone to her camera roll by opening her my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tapping the share icon (box with upware pointing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.
Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and provide the password when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone. This only deletes the account from her phone, not from iCloud; it won't effect your device(s). When you delete the account you will be asked if you want to keep or delete the iCloud data from her phone. If she needs to migrate a copy of the data to her new account, choose Keep; otherwise, choose Delete. Then sign back in with a separate Apple ID to create her new account and if migrating data to the new account, choose Merge when prompted.
Once she is on a separate account, if she migrated a copy of the data to her new account you can go to icloud.com from your computer, sign into her new iCloud account and delete your data from her account.

I recently rented a movie from itunes (John Carter) and tried to move it to ipod but got message that it is not compatible. Why did this happen as I haven't had problem before and can I get money back?

Are you sure you don't have a 5G iPod video? If so, rented movies are not compatible with that particular generation/model of iPod.
Otherwise, it sounds like the rental is in HD. It should have came with a Standard Definition version instead.

My apple password stopped working this morning and I had to reset it. Why did this happen?

When I got up this morning my apple password no longer worked and I had to reset it. Why did this happen? Do I need to be worried about my account being compromised?

Only other users here. Apple is not here. Apple does not answer questions here. We have no idea about why the password stopped working.

Also, I cannot get my Iphone calendar to show all my outlook calendar events from my PC. How to get this to work?

What were you syncing them with? They are meant to be synced with a contact manager on your computer, or a cloud service.
If you were not syncing them to anything, they're gone.

I have two monthly scheduled iTunes allowances scheduled for my kids. For some reason they did not get transferred to their accounts this month.

I updated my iphone (G3) and all the apps are now gone! What can I do and why did this happen?

Did you perform the update on a computer other than the one you normally sync to? Were the apps in the iTunes library on your computer BEFORE you performed the update?

Hey Raffiecat,
Thanks for the question. If your iPod is setup to manually manage content, you can add content from multiple libraries:
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1535
When manually managing content, you can add content from multiple libraries to your iPod or iPad. Even when manually managing music, some content may be available from only one library at time. This includes all content on iPhone and video content on iPod and iPad.
You can also learn which content you can import to your new computer from your iPod:
iTunes: Transferring media from your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1209
Or, if you still have access to the previous computer, you can transfer your iTunes Library:

Good luck finding the solution. I have another posting https://discussions.apple.com/message/25145839#25145839 on this exact same issue, and that is after looking on my own for the solution on the web and on Apple's forum without any luck for a real solution. Having to RESET a device every time I need to clear out old messages from memory sounds to me like an intended pain from Apple to keep pushing iPhone users to purchase additional iCloud backup plans.
