We have two iTunes accounts on one computer. Why is my music, apps, etc showing in my husbands account? Home sharing is NOT selected. This recently became an issue when we added additional devices. Now we keep getting each other's apps!
Se descargan aplicaciones para mi iPad 64 3G, las cuales en el momento de sincronizar no pasan a la iPad debido a que solicita una autorizacion para el ordenador la cual se autoriza con ID y el Password, esta orden se procesa y vuelve a solicitar nuevamente la autorizacion y asi sucesivamente.
He intentado creando nuevas cuentas y desinstalando iTunes y volviendolo a instalar.
Favor de orientarme en la solucion adecuada para el asunto comentado anteriormente. -
I have been sharing an apple ID with my husband for my iPad and iPhone however I now have a new iphone and have read that I should have my own ID. If I create one with my new phone, how I do transfer across all my contacts, music, apps etc from my previous phone/ID?
You cannot download the same Apps that you have on your iPhone. They are two seperate stores.
The store you have on your iPhone is the same for any iDevice (iPad, iPhone and iPod)
The store on your MacBook is only for Macs. -

I have a MacBook Pro through my college, and I have all my iCal items on that computer, but I have all my music, apps, etc. on a PC desktop that is my personal home computer. I am wondering if I can sync my iPod touch with my MacBook for the iCal items and also with my PC for the music and such without loosing either of the two when trying to sync with the other computer?

Hi. I have recently finished with an emplyer and have backed up my phone and when i go to restore the back up to another phone it is asking me to turn off the "find my iphone" before the restore can start. Pronlem is im no longer in possesion of this phone and can not turn it off.
Any assistance would be greatIt's not referring to your old phone, it's referreing to the one you're trying to restore to. Where did you get the phone you're trying to restore the backup to?

Hi. I have shared an Apple ID with my children for some time. As they are getting older they do not wnat me seeing all their messages, photos etc so want their own accounts. How can they access their purchased music and apps on the new account please?
Yes.
On their iOS devices, under Settings>iTunes & App Store, they should use your Apple ID. When they log into iCloud, iMessage and Facetime, they should use their personal Apple IDs. -
I have recently updated my phone and am attempting to sync it. I got the error message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone". I deleted the backup, restarted my computer, and even restored the iPhone, but continue to get the same error message. What do I need to do now?
iTunes places the iPhone backup in the following location. Navigate there & delete everything in the backup folder, but not the folder itself. You will have to turn on "Show All Hidden Files & Folders" to see it:
Mac:~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP:\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\ -
My iPhone5 is model A1429.
I purchased it through Verizon within the last 9 months.
Can I just buy a new sim card and replace the Verizon one while I am in Europe for 25 days?After 10 days in Scandinavia, this is what I have learned:
1.) getting the mini or nano sim has been impossible _ in Sweden, Norway and Denmark the carriers I worked with have the old sim cards that they suggest that you trim down to nano size. The one I tried was still too thick to fit in the sim card drawer on my iphone 5.
2.) Verizon was very cooperative and unlocked my phone before I left the USA.
3.) The Verizon plan may be competitive with plans that cover multiple countries in Europe. The pricing is sufficiently confusing that providers are hard to compare, ie. initial plan / sim card purchase amout, voice, data, text send / receive rates, varying monthly or package amounts of mintes and data allowances.
4.) Keeping cellular data off, using wi-fi has mostly kept cellular data usage low, with a few exceptions resulting from data use for either google or i maps and a probable butt-call or mistaken program left on without wi-fi.
5.) I am still going to check out France's rate, but I won't report more if the story stays the same.
Good luck out there.
Thank you to all that responded. Even though the information did not help resolve the problem it gave us traction. -
I have imported contacts from Outlook to Mail and they have synced via iCloud to my iPhone 3GS. I can't get my iPhone to make a call using these contacts (it tries but then says call ended) but if I dial the number of any of the contacts on the keypad, the call DOES work! Help me please - is there something I need to do to the contacts because tehy came from Outlook? Thanks
Thank you for replying. Yes I deleted the old email address..

While trying to update my iPhone 4s I received this "iTunes could not backup the i Phone "Owner's iPhone" because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone. Delete the backup for this iPhone, then try again. I have a PC and cannot find the backup in question to delete. Any ideas?
Here are location of your Backup folder(s):
Win7 - C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\Mobile Sync\Backup
Vista - C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Mobile Sync\Backup
Winxp- C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\Mobile Sync\Backup -
I have an iPhone with iOS 7.1.1 and am trying to update to 7.1.2, but get an error message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone"
Assuming you are using the current version of iTunes (11,2,2), open iTunes, click "Preferences" under the leftmost entry on iTunes' menu, then choose "Devices".
Find the iPhone's backup there, highlight it, and choose "Delete Backup". -
I know the iphone 4s can turn off the vibrate for all sounds, but is there a way to keep the vibration on for just phone calls (with the ringtone) but off for everything else?
