I have just bought a new laptop. I have itunes currently used on old PC. Do I need to download the up to date version of itunes on to laptop before I try to copy music library over to laptop or will itunes software automatically copy when I copy the library? I am not that knowledgeable IT wise but can manage slowly.

Know it would be wise to download from here and install first
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Then transfer your music over, details here

Finally if you are going to disppose of your old machine then you need to deauthorise it first.

I have just bought iphone 4 and when I make calls i don't hear anything from the headset excep when i plug in the headphones or turn on speaker ?

I have the same problem. It only started a few days ago. When I make or receive calls I have to use speaker otherwise I can't hear a thing. I'm also pretty sure that when I try to make calls without the speaker turned on, it doesn't actually dial, but the display says it has.
I've tried restoring from a backup with no luck. I'm reluctant to restore as a new phone as it's such a pain.

I have recently bought iPhone 5. I am using a BSNL post paid 3G sim. I can not activate my BSNL 3G services in my new iPhone 5. Please Help.

I have recently bought iPhone 5. I am using a BSNL post paid 3G sim. I can not activate my BSNL 3G services in my new iPhone 5. Though they were perfectly fine previously in my old handset i.e. Nokia Lumia 800. Please Help. How do I activate BSNL 3G services in my iPhone 5.

Since BSNL is not a supported carrier, you need to input Correct APN settings for Cellular data and enable 3G
Settings >> General >> Network >> Cellular Data Network.
Check with BSNL website/Wireless Customer care/Engineering. You can use Google as well. Cheers

Help! I have just broken my iPad charger, can I use my iPhone charger instead? What's the difference?

Help! I have just broken my iPad charger, can I use my iPhone charger instead? What's the difference?

As far as I know there is no difference, we use the same charger for iphone, ipad, ipod, etc.. and no problem.
edit:
There is a statement from Apple that confirms this : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4327

edit #2:
Wrong statement! haha
Here is a thread regarding this: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2397877
In summary, it'll work, but charging will take more time.

I have an IPhone 4 and would like to use Nike . Do I need to purchase the sensor or is it just an application?

I have an IPhone 4 and would like to use Nike+. Do I still need to purchase the sensor to put into the shoe or is this just an application..??

Think it's two parts, 1st you'll have to purchase the accessory, then download the app.
Check out the Nike store, think they'll be better at answering this.

I have just rebuilt my Macbook pro and I use a mouse which plugs in. Since the rebuild it will not perform an open instruction, or the track pad either, which it use to do. Anyone any ideas

Since I installed a clean rebuild of my system my track pad and mouse will not open a folder or file using a double click. I have to use Apple key plus O. I have checked the preferences but cannot see anything that will help me.

While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t have Lion. There's a Lion Support Community where everybody has Lion. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer. https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.7_lion

I have just bought a MacBook but can't seem to sync my Contacts or Calendar from my iPhone 3GS to my iTunes, I have tried everything, even the icloud doesn't seem to do it.

I have just bought a MacBook but can't seem to sync my Contacts or Calendar to the Address Book or iCal via iTunes, I have tried everything including watching support videos and putting this into a search engine. Even icloud doesn't seem to be doing it.

If you are trying to sync via iCloud, make sure your MacBook is running OSX Lion 10.7.7, and that you have set up your iPhone as described here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ and you MacBook as described here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.htm (including turning On Contacts and Calendars as shown in step 3). If you're syncing via iCloud don't check to sync in iTunes too (on the Info tab in iTunes) or you may end up with duplicate data.

I have just bought VAIO Fit 11A and it come up with a bundled PSE12. is it trial or full version?

I have just bought VAIO Fit 11A and it come up with pre-loaded PSE12. In the first time I ran it, PSE request the Abode ID so I created the Adobe ID.
Then, it run and work properly but today it show the notice that the software is trial version and can be used for 30 days or enter the key.
So, My question is the bundled PSE12, is the full version? If it's full version, how can I find the key? Should I contact Sony support or Adobe support team?
Thank you.

You will need either a serial number or a redemption code (which lets you get a serial number). For bundled versions, whoever bundled it (in your case Sony) is responsible for distributing the serial numbers, so you'd need to talk to them, or else wherever you bought the computer.

Just Bought a Presonus Firebox and want to know if I really need to install

Just Bought a Presonus Firebox and want to know if I really need to install the presonus software that came with it?
Is it really necessary?
thanks, technoreid

The Firebox Mixer allows you to set up different
routings for the monitors and headphones. You may
never use such features, but if you do, you'll
appreciate the flexibility. It can also be used to
provide lower latency monitoring of live signals than
you might get using softwre monitoring in Logic.
For most operation, you won't need it, and you'll
control everything from Logic and the front panel
level controls.
In my opinion, the Firebox is the king of small
interfaces.
Before worrying about a tube preamp, get some mics,
and learn how to use the EQ in Logic.
+1 a solid interface
personally i use the mixer feature to switch my main outs from 1-2 to 3-4 when using traktor to let 1-2 be the headphone cue.... ect....

Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive
I must tell you, I am in the situation that MegsiPhone described and I am confused as to what to do. Here is what I have done thus far:
1. I installed iTunes on my new computer, I wen't ahead and set up a new library file locally, and pointed to my NAS for all the music and movies file in edit>advanced. From what I recall, when I did I can remember getting a whole bunch of messages about apps, new versions, overwriting. I don't recall, regadless I dismissed each on and did not override. Anyway, that's all done now.
2. I can tell you that I used to back up three iPhones and an iPod touch to my old PC. There is a mixture of 4 iTunes ID's with various app purchases, it seems a mess.
3. I did plug my phone in, it gave me the error message about syncing only to one computer. Then I did a back-up and a sync. I know it did not work right because it took a matter of seconds when I know it should take a lot longer. Anyway, as a safeguard I am using iCloud back-up for now before I do anything else.
So, what do I do now to make this all right? I would like to be able to sync mine and my wife's iPhone to the computer. Should I not bother and just keep my back-up in the cloud and are there disadvantages to this? For my son's iPhone, I can let him back-up to the old computer, I would assume that would remain good and I would not have any issues. Should I erase the back-up on my new computer, erase the appss or whatever and start from scratch? Kind of not sure how to handle, please help.

TS1967 I have just bought a new computer and downloaded latest version of itunes. It has all installed fine, but when I sync my ipod, it shows all the songs but won't play any of the songs in that library. Also, I can't add new files.

I have just bought a new computer and downloaded the latest version of itunes. It has all installed fine, but when I plug my ipod and sync it, the music library shows all the songs and videos that are on there, but won't let me play them. Also, I can't add any new songs to the same library. It saves them elsewhere. I have had the previous version on another computer and it worked just fine. I have been online trying to find an answer but nothing. Hope someone can help me. Thanks

Installing iTunes does not cause content to magically appear on the computer.
Your media is only where you put it.
iOS devices are not backup devices.
Copy the media from the old computer to the new computer.

I have just bought a new mac book, and I want to start from scratch by syncing the content of my iPhone, but each time I try it wants to delete everything on the iPhone and replace by what on the new iTunes library, i.e. nothing! can I do the reverse?

You need to copy some files and your iTunes folder to the new computer. Do you have a backup of your old computer (or still have the old computer?) Was the old computer a Mac or PC?

I have just bought an iPod Nano to replace my previous one which died,when I open my iTunes it does not show the new iPod, and refuses to allow me to sync my existing library, the new iPod does not show in my computer only on devices, any suggestions ?

Question: I have just bought an iPod Nano to replace my previous one which "died" My computer does not recognize the new iPod and only shows it in devices and printers. I cannot sync my existing iTunes to the new iPod, there is no way I can do it. Any help please?

Hey there longislandmacca,
It sounds like your iPod is not recognized in either Explorer, or in iTunes on your PC. That can be frustrating, expecially when its a new device. I recommend you use the following article to help resolve that issue named:
