  • HT1420 I use two MacBook pro, two iPads and two iPhones. Upon connection and attempt to synchronize photos I receive a message that my authorization limit is exceeded. I read that iOS devices do not count against the authorization limit.

    I use two MacBook pro, two iPads and two iPhones. Upon connection and attempt to synchronize photos I receive a message that my authorization limit is exceeded. I read that iOS devices do not count against the authorization limit. One iPhone and one iPad show in the authorization list. iTunes wants to delete my purchased programs and books from the iPad to continue synchronization. What can I do?

    Ok, now I do wish I could edit....
    I forgot to APPLY the network settings for the USB cable to work. Connected thru USB I can tether.
    So, I kept playing, and playing some more...
    I had previously unpaired everything, and gone as far as removing network devices HOWEVER...
    I didn't remove the Ethernet, Firewire or Airport Network devices.
    Now, I have done so. I REMOVED EVERYTHING
    No pairing, no network devices.
    Bluetooth was already turned off, and I rebooted.
    I turned off tethering and rebooted the iphone.
    I turned on bluetooth (on the MBP), I turned on tethering. I browsed for the iphone. It said I was already paired???? Ok, repair AGAIN, and THE IPHONE SHOWED MY BLUETOOTH TETHERING BLUE BAR at the top of the screen!
    I opened a web page, no go... d4mn, I was close...
    Opened network preferences and the created a new bluetooth PAN and voila! Internet back on the MBP. I am about to reinstall the ethernet and airport (I can live without firewire for now) and see what happens.
    Basically, the link I posted two posts ago, I had already done that, but I NEEDED to remove ethernet, firewire and airport as well...
    So MAYBE it's fixed, we'll see for how long. I'm not going to mark this as answered for now, because basically, it has failed for no reason, and I want to know why...
    Hopefully someone can come up with something, but having to delete and reinstall all pairings and network devices (to me) is not really a solution, it's a workaround (at best).

  • Do the programs on Mac air count towards flash storage

    Thinking about getting the Mac Book Air with 256gb SS hard drive.  I'm curious if the applications ( such as excel, iTunes,etc) count towards the 256gb allowance?  I'm wondering if most people have an external storage device with these devices that have limited storage.

    As Niel said, yes. In general what takes up the most space are video, music, and digital photos. By keeping my music & video on an external drive (using iTunes Match for music) I've been able to live within the 256GB limits with plenty to spare.

  • T-code that  resets the counts in the storage bins

    hello,
    is there any T-code that  resets the counts in the storage bins.
    As we do our weekly counts it keeps a running total of how many bin are completed and allows us to track the warehouse's progress.
    Regards
    Goutham

    Of cource, very sorry to waste your time,
    I didn't even notice LOL
    But your question is a easy question so I am sure some one will respond with a good answer for you.
    our program name is RLREOLPQ
    not sure if the program is custon or just t-code
    gl
    Edit: may be a bad sign for you, maybe no standard t-code if we had to create a custum one

  • HT4847 Why is the "done" button inactive when I try to downgrade my iCloud storage plan to 5GB free? Doesn't work from iOS device or macBook system preferences. I didn't sign up for a $40 plan.

    Why is the "done" button inactive when I try to downgrade my iCloud storage plan to 5GB free? Doesn't work from iOS device or macBook system preferences. I didn't sign up for a $40 plan.

    I found the solution .,,,
    1) click on your current plan and press done your payment details will appear .
    2) the first section is your plan and there is a botton "change" click on it
    3) it will take you back to the upgrade options
    4) press on the downgrade options
    5) choose the 5 GB and the done botton will be enabled
    6) click on it  you'll back to the step number 2 , here read carefully you'll see that your changes will take effect after the current plan expired with the date.

  • If I have two factor authentication on my iPhone can someone read my iMessages on their iOS device?

    If I have two factor authentication on my iPhone can someone read my iMessages on their iOS device?

    As you probably know iOS devices can only be physically synced to one computer at a time. If you mean will iTunes Match keep all your "devices" up to date with all our music then, yes, that is what the service is designed to do.

  • Does using personas / themes count towards my download limit?

    Does using personas or themes count towards my download limit?

    Only downloading a file (theme or persona) does account to your download limit.
    Once you've download a persona (or theme) then using doesn't account for extra download quota.
    Additional Personas are not stored on your computer,so if you switch a persona then the new persona needs to be re-downloaded from the (getpersonas) server.
    A theme is stored on your computer, so switching themes requires no extra download.

  • Does the 25,000 song count against the 5GB limit?

    I was wondering. You can upload up to 25,000 songs. That's great and all, but does it take up your 5GB limit on iCloud, thereby forcing you to purchase more storage space?
    If you guys can point to an article from Apple addressing this specific issue, that'd be fantastic
    Thanks in advance!

    Nope, the 25k song limit and the 5G limit for other iCloud things are entirely separate.  Music doesn't touch the 5G.

  • Do purchased songs count towards the limit?

    I was just curious because I am nearing the 25,000 song limit and was wondering if the songs I purchased on iTunes store counted towards this?

    Keith,
    Sorry - Store purchased music doesn't count....

  • I have iPad, my wife's iPone 4 and my new iPhone 4s all on iOS 5 and using the same Apple account. That is convenient in many ways except I can't use iMessage from my iPad and iPhone to my wife's iPhome. Any solution?

    When iMessage is enabled on all 3 devices, they just seem to mirror all iMessage conversations on all of them. Can I configure iMessage for my wife's iPhone such that it becomes a separate entity with that respect while staying on the same Appte account with other our devices?

    Actually, there is a solution, and it sounds to go against what you want until you realize how well it works.
    Seperate Apple IDs is the solution, but you can granularly sign into different things with different IDs.  Now, I'm in the exact same situation as you and saw the exact same problem.  Here was our solution:
    1) Create new Apple IDs for everyone that didn't already have one.  This meant my wife and daughter needed new IDs.
    2) Go into Settings -> Message and select "Receive At..."
    3) Change the Apple ID in iMessage on a per-device basis to the new ID for who ever owns that device.  For example, the new ID for my wife went on her phone, same with my daughter.
    Apple IDs are free, and you don't have to change the ID on every part of your phone.  For example, we still have the generic family ID on iCloud and the store, but we have our own unique ones signed in on iMessage and Game Center.  From what I can tell, this is the best of both worlds.

  • Do internet backups count against the 7 limit burn for playlists?

    I'm a windows XP user. I'm considering a subscription to an internet service for backups. My iTunes library will be one of the folders I want to backup. Would a backup count against the limit of 7 burns for a playlist?
    Thanks in advance for your help

    No. A "burn" means to burn the songs to a CD. Not anything else.
