You should copy your iTunes library from the older computer to your new laptop using one of the methods described in this Apple support document.
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
Or if you would like you can use your iPod to move your iTunes library as well, assuming it's a model that supports Disk Mode (meaning it's not an iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad).

I purchased creative suite about 3 years ago for my macbook pro and have just bought an iMac and was wondering if and how to install creative suite onto my computer?

I am aware that I could not use both devices at the same time and from what I've read on here, once you've bought creative suite you may install it onto two devices. I'm just wondering how I go about installing onto my iMac, also with consideration that it is a older version of Creative Suite.

I just got my ipod and i have networks but it wont let me make a password i have tried to find my wi-fi password but i can't is there an app where i can get wi-fi off of it please some one help me i can't do anything on my ipod

i just got a ipod and i can't find my wi-fi password im so mad i have alot of networks but it wont let me make a password and i have tried to find my wi-fi password is there an app or something that can help me get wi-fi on my ipod i feel so sad knowing that i cant even do anything with it

You need to contact the people who administer the networks to get the passwords for the networks. If there was such an app as you are asking for then passwords for wifi networks would be worthless.

Hi...Just got a Ipod and in our house we have 3 ipod touch total. Can we put 3 ipods in itune?

Hi...Just got a Ipod and in our house we have 3 ipod touch total. Can we put 3 ipods in itune?

Yes. When you connect your devices, iTunes knows which one is which so you can customize what does and does not get synched to each device.
The only caveat is each user needs to have their own unique Apple ID AND their own account on the computer so you can keep purchased apps and such separate...
By having separate computer accounts, each user has their own "space" to put stuff in. iTunes knows this and will make individual iTunes library folders for each user.

I have just got an iPad and I want the music to be transferred through my iPod touch using iCloud but I didn't get the music from iTunes so I don't think it will let me do it. Do you have any tips that could help me?

Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view.
Photos that were synced from a computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing. If you want to remove them all then normally you could just sync an empty folder (in terms of photos) to the iPad, but as you don't want to sync at the moment you can't do that.
You can reset the iPad back to factory settings and start from scratch with it : Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings

Hi, I have just got an ipod touch, I had an ipod classic for years, I have tried to put my itunes onto my ipod touch but only my purchased music is going onto it, how do I get my library onto it without using sharing?

Hi I have just got an ipod touch, I have had a classic for years with no trouble. I have tried to download my itunes library to my touch but only my purchased music transfers. How do I transfer all my music without the home sharing as this at the moment seems to be the only way to see all of my library?

You can set up more than one device on your computer, and iTunes will remember the settings for each of them:
How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer
But you'll have to use your Apple ID to sync bought media to her device. Disable all other things you don't want to sync like photos, contacts, etc.

I have just got my iPad2 and very pleased with it. I have a question regarding the monthly (recommended) battery full charge. Should I let the battery completely die down to nothing at all or would this be bad for my iPad?

I have just got my iPad2 and am very pleased with it. I have a question regarding the monthly (recommended) battery full charge. Should I let the battery completely die down to nothing at all before I plug in to recharge or would this complete drain be bad for my iPad?

It's not bad for it - on this page www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html it says :
For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).

Hi i have just reset my ipod and it will not my home wi-fi hot spot

hi i have just reset my ipod and it will not my home wi-fi hot spot can u help ASAP

Try:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset Network Settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
Could this be the problem?
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
It is unclear from your description what happens when you try to connect.

I download quite a few magazines through the app store on my iPad. I just bought an iMac and was wondering if there is a way to transfer those purchases over so that I could read them on my Mac?

You should be able to use the OpenVPN Connect app running on your iPad to connect your iPad to the VPN directly. It is an official OpenVPN client for iOS devices.
In what way is it "not compatible"? Have you tried it? Tunnelblick is an OpenVPN client, so your school's VPN is using the OpenVPN protocol. That means any OpenVPN client should be able to access it. (It is possible, but unlikely, that your school uses encryption that is not available on the iPad, but that would be very unusual.)
Otherwise, a remote control app on your iPad would let you control your Mac at home. "Back to My Mac", for example, would allow you to control your Mac remotely. The tricky part of this is that usually a VPN is set up to send all Internet traffic via the VPN server, and I'm not sure how that would work with "Back to My Mac".

I just restored my ipod and the power button works, as well as the home button but when I slide the unlock button it doesn't respond. Basically it is not sensing that I am touching it. I've tried restoring it and restarting it but nothing seems to work.

I just restored my ipod and the power button works, as well as the home button but when I slide the unlock button it doesn't respond. Basically it is not sensing that I am touching it and I can not get out of the home screen. I've tried restoring it and restarting it but nothing seems to work. I've tried everything, is there anything I can do myself to fix it?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Question I just got my ipod and I am currently converting my top five movie

to ipod format to be able to view them on my Ipod now I have two questions the first one is I have my fav movies saved in h.264 format each movie 1.5 gigs now when I converted my first one it created a duplicate of that specific movie my guess is one if the Ipod format and the other is the one I had originally in Itunes now my first question is if I sync it into my Ipod and then delete the duplicate movie that the conversion created, will I still be able to see the movie on my Ipod and the second question is does it make a diference which copy of the movie I delete, because I only wanna have one of each in my itunes, but I wanna make sure that the one I converted to ipod format is of the same quality of the original movie I had before converting it. So I guess I wanna know if saving the ipod converted one and deleting the original will lose quality. I know I saved the original one as a 1.5 gig so hopefully when I convert to ipod it doesn't compress the movie, if it does I would like to keep the original movie and delete the converted one. Sorry for the long question, but I just got my ipod yesterday and I'm loving it.

thank you for the info well my question was I always had movies in my movie section in itunes now when I converted those into ipod format it created another copy of the movie. So I have two copies of evey movie now, so I wanna know if I can delete the copy tha was created and still have it stored on my Ipod or if I keep the copy that was created if I would lose any video quality and sound quality, I'm not sure what happens when we convert to ipod format just wanna make sure if I delete the old copy that I don't lose any quality

Just got my ipod and it doens´t even turn on

I just got my Ipod Nano. I have itunes installed but it says that it can´t recognize my ipod right now. My ipod doesn´t even turn on. I haven´t seen a thing in it´s screen! My windows explorer doesn´t show my ipod too but when checking my computer configurations it says that I have a Apple Recovery connected to the USB.
I suspected it was battery but it´s connected to my computer for two hours now and NOTHING happened. I looked everywhere and called apple assistance (they´re not working today).
A help would be so much appreciated!!! I want to at least see my ipod turning on
Thanks!

Where won't it let you flip the keyboard? What App? Does the screen rotate in Apps like Safari?
Its up to the particular App to have rotation enabled. If it doesn't then the screen will remain in the orientation the designers set.

HT1296 I am trying to transfer all of my music, photos, movies and apps from my IPAD to a new computer I just purchased for home use. Currently I have been using a work computer. How can I do this?

I got a new computer for home and I am trying to transfer all of my music, movies, photos and apps from my IPAD. I have been using my work computer ofr this in the past but want to change to my new home computer. I can't figure out how to do this without erasing everything from it.

This is an extract from one of our senior participant; hope he doesn't mind me reproducing it here
Syncing with new computer
1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
2) Now connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.

I have just got a iPod 5 gen 32gb and lightning adapter but can't get it to work with my docking station it will charge but not play audio please help??

I have bought a 5th gen iPod and lightning adapter but it won't wrk on my docking station it charges but doesn't play audio? Please help

Does the dock manufacture say it is compatible with the 5G iPod with iOS 6.0.1?
Have you went to the manufacturer's support site? Contacted them?
Try resetting the dock. How you do that depends upon the dock
Sometimes this works
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
