I have had to reset my laptop to factory settings and reinstall iTunes. Now i cannot drag songs or apps from my itunes to my iPhone. Any ideas?
Hi All,
I have had to reset my laptop to factory settings and reinstall iTunes. I backed up all my songs and apps and have now put all songs back in to iTunes. However, now i cannot drag songs or apps from my iTunes to my iPhone.
It only gives me the 'no entry' style icon when i drag it across rather than the 'plus' icon to add items to the iPhone.
Any ideas how to get round this or will i have to clear the phone and start again?
Any help would be very appreciated.

I have had to reset my iPad to factory settings and lost iTunes
Question: how can I retrieve my iTunes, mad configure across all 3 pieces of kit.
I have had to reset my iPad 2 to factory settings, and in so doing lost iTunes and photos.
This has been a very long term issue with my Icloud account. It's never worked on my mac notebook, iPad nor recently purchased iPhone 4.
This issue has been compounded by bad advice from Apple Helpine who is insisted I recreate an Apple ID using a gmail account.
A meeting at a Genius Bar discredited this advice and promised to send me an email explaining how to get, retrieve my mac e address, that email did not arrive.
In desperation I have had to reset my iPad, reset my ID and at least iCloud is now working for the first time.
However I suspect the iTunes is now attached to the gmail account, which I do not wish to receive.Typos mad = and

I've had to reset my laptop to factory settings a few times recently and now I realise that i have auth'd my iphone to my laptop 4 times now (i can only do this once more). Is there anyway of de-authing my laptop without being having access to itunes on my laptop to do this?
Without access, you're gonna have to wait until you reach the 5 authorized computer limit, then you can de-authorize all.

I have had to restore my ipad to factory settings, having made a backup on my pc first. When Ihave tried to restore from my pc I have no apps!! Please can anyone help me get them back with all their data. I don't have wifi at home and I have never been able to sync my pc with my ipad, although it works with my iphone! I copied all of the apps before I restored using itunes, but no idea where they are copied to. Any help would be hugely appreciated to get my daughters games back. Thank you in advance )
Hi Skydiver119
Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to my problem.
Yes the purchases were made though my apple id.
I have looked at a few other questions on this topic and I have read that the app data is stored in the backup file but the apps themselves need to be synced back onto the ipad. Someome has mentioned right clicking on sync my ipad but I don't know where to find that to right click on!! Lol.
Again, I really appreciate your time and if by any chance you know where I can 'right click' I would really appreciate you letting me know as I can't get my ipad to sync with my pc at all, although it is being picked up in itunes and it has backed up to itunes okay. GGrrr. Maybe I have something wrong in the settings which is not making them compatible? -

I have been having problems connecting to the internet, so I tried restoring to an earlier date with no luck, so I have had to restore my PC back to factory setting. When I log on to my iTunes library it says I am already connect to another PC. I have lost all my music and photos. I have them on my ipad but I don't want to sync it with my new account as this will take all my information of my iPad. Anyone know how to get my origianl iTunes back.
I did back up my computer and then put everything back on ( or so I thought) but it did not work properly ( I don't know why) maybe I hit the wrong button, but know on my back up for iTunes it is the one I have on my computer now without all my music and photos. Guess I'll just have to start again, I did manage to work out how to get any purchases I got from iTunes. So it's just all my own music bit of a bummer really but still you live and learn, so I'm told.
Thanks for the help thought much appreciated. -

i have had to restore my pc to factory settings. i have downloaded i tunes again and cant find my purchases ? wendy13
You ought to have backed up your data before nuking Windows...
You should be able to:
Backup the device to the new installation
Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
Restore the device from the backup
This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

I forgot the passcode to turn off restrictions. I have restored my iPad back to the factory settings and then synced it with the latest backup. The restrictions are still on and it is asking for the passcode. Can someone tell me how to get that off.
The only option is to wipe the device clean and restore it to factory settings. Hope you have a backup.
Follow the instructions in iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 to restore the device to factory settings.
Once you have setup the device as a new one, you can then sync it back with your iTunes account and all your music, apps, contacts and any other content sync'ed with iTunes will be loaded on the device. Any content that is stored only on the device and not sync'ed with iTunes, like app logins or data, will be lost during this process. Be forewarned that this is a long process and can take a couple of hours or more to complete. This can be painful, but it is necessarily so to prevent users from working around the security settings. After the restore is complete, you can setup a new Restrictions passcode. Make a note of the passcode to avoid this situation in future.
Cheers, Tom -
Does anyone know what "other" means in the sync summary bar? I have 850mb using storage space in my iphone and can't understand what that is. I have tried to delete everything, restore to factory settings and change the icloud account. Thanks.

In the past few weeks I have been experiencing popup audios. They are annoying and I would like to block them. I am using Firefox as my browser. Any ideas?
Hi Lowell,
I don't know if you have the popup blocker turned on (nor if it works for audio), but if not, try it: Firefox menu > Preferences > Content > Block Popups.
