My iTunes can't find the iPhone when the firewall is turn on. I tried to permit the apples applications in the firewall but nothing happens. My computer and iPhone are on the same wi-fi network. When I turn off my firewall, I can see my iPhone in iTunes.

Hi All,
I will describe my current setup and the required setup below. Please help me with the steps to do this
Current setup:
OS: Windows 7
Total Music collection: 80GB of mp3 , which is NOT added to itunes library (I use foobar)
iTunes Music collection: around 500 songs, synced to my iphone (unchecked "manually manage" that meeans all these songs are in itunes library)
Now the required setup: (Since I am planning to get a macbook pro)
OS: Mac OS (This means the music file path will be different)
Total Music collection: 80GB which is to be added to itunes library
iPhone Music: The same 500 songs as before.
Is this possible? In Mac OS I want my entire 80GB to be added to itunes library, also keeping my existing iphone songs intact.
Any ideas?Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) so you get a prompt to select a library, then guide it to the 'iTunes Library.itl' file in the moved iTunes folder.
If you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)
Longer answers if for any reason you do not think all library files are inside your iTunes folder (changed preferences settings at some point):
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - a somewhat bewildering and not always easily understandable set of options.
For the record there's this reference for iTunes 11 but it really doesn't strike me as having the specifics you need. iTunes 11 for Mac: Move your library to another computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12168
2011 ilounge article: Transferring your iTunes library - http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/moving-your-itunes-library-to -a-new-hard-drive/ - An article with good background information (similar to the links above), particularly if you are not sure your media files are all grouped for quick answer above. Unfortunately under the single term "transferring library" it describes two very different moves; relocating just your media (not really transferring your library and not recommended unless you really need this configuration), and relocating media+database (really your whole "library"). Make sure you understand the difference before electing to move only media.
Windows users see tip at: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18879381
Consider moving everything from your Windows PC to your Mac in a single move, including your iTunes library: About Windows Migration Assistant - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4796 - Learn about how to use Windows Migration Assistant to migrate your files from a Windows PC to a Mac.
Transferring the library as above will connect your i-device to the same library on the new computer even though it is stored on different hardware. You should not see the "erase & sync" prompt, and syncing will preserve game scores and other data on the device.
As for the 80GB of music in foobar, add that to the iTunes library at some stage by dragging those files to the Automatically Add To iTunes folder. -

I have problems restoring tabs and saving pin apps with Firefox 5 on Mac OS X version 10.6.7
I bought a Macbook Pro a few months ago and since installing Mozilla Firefox on my system, I have never been able to restore previous sessions after closing Firefox. I currently use Firefox 5 and I've tried pinning open tabs as apps tabs but those too disappear when I restart Firefox.
I use a few add-ons including DownThemAll, Force-TLS, Rikaichan and Rikaichan's Japanese-English Dictionary File.App (pinned) tabs and Tab Groups (Panorama) are stored as part of the session data in the file sessionstore.js in the Firefox profile folder.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore
Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Browsing History" when Firefox is closed because that prevails and prevents Firefox from opening tabs from the previous session.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Clear+Recent+History
It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and all open tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

Syncing multiple iPhones with iCal and contacts
My roommate just bought an iPhone and synced it for the first time with my iMac, but now he has all of my contacts and calendar appointments and none of his own. Do iCal and Contacts support multiple profiles? Is it possible for him to store his contacts on my iMac with iLife and sync without interfering with my contacts?
Sorry if this is a noobish question or if it's already been answered. I looked and couldn't readily find any topics that matched this question.
Message was edited by: k2tha-izzoYour roommate will need to have all of his contacts in a specific group, as well as all of his calendar appointments in a specific calendar.
In iTunes, go to the info tab on the iPhone in iTunes and have it only sync that calendar/group. -

Issues Syncing w/ iPhone 3G (iTunes 9) - Windows 7 (64-bit) OS
After downloading iTunes 9, I've been having issues syncing my iPhone. I've tried every option available to me and have scoured many a forum to seek some form of solution to this. I've, unfortunately, restored my iPhone and managed to lose all of my data and contact information. This isn't really wants getting to me. The ability to sync my Music/Photos is.
A list of things I've tried.
* Restoring iPhone to original state.
* Uninstalling/Reinstalling Every apple product ever placed on my PC and deleting all data and registry information associated with Apple.
* Syncing my iPhone with another Laptop/PC (which resulted in my phone not even being recognized).
At this point I can assume that the problem lies in part with iTunes or something I missed and my phone in general. Since it costs an arm and a leg to get support from an 'Apple Expert' or to take it to an Apple store I can't resort to that.
On a good note, I have managed to actually get the phone activated and working again. The only thing I can't do is sync/update.
The error message I'm getting on my Laptop is ... blah blah blah "unable to load dataclass" blah blah one..
Any help would be greatly appreciated.I've tried both of those previously. Sorry I didn't mention that. I've done so many things it's hard to remember. I'm beginning to think that some of the problem lies within the phone. And since I can't even get the computer to be able to read it properly, I can't restore to factory again.
I had a bit of luck with a friends PC and was able to get it to read it, but not sync. So, I may use his iTunes to restore my phone to a factory default. Then attempt to uninstall/reinstall iTunes on my Laptop again to see if it works.
(Also for the copy/paste files, the latest iTunes from the site remedied the issue where the files were in the wrong location, so that was already completed).
The link to the support page is virtually useless though. I'd done everything that page asked before even seeing it. Thanks for trying though. I'll repost after I restore and then uninstall/reinstall again. -
Hi, I download the latest version of itunes and i have problem now to sync my iphone with my computer, I have windows 7 home premium service pack 1, can somebody tell me how to fix it. thanks
This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums.

My 160g iPod classic was originally formatted to PC and I have now moved across to Mac. What problems will I encounter syncing my iPod with my iTunes on my Mac?
If it's formatted for usage with PCs, syncing it from a Mac may be slow, it can't store files which are 4GB or larger, and its firmware can't be updated from a Mac without restoring it.
