I have recently had to install itunes and it won't sync with my iphone 4s even though I have signed in to my apple id, how can I fix this?

My laptop needed wiping and rebuilding. I built it up and re downloaded itunes. However it will not sync with my iphone. I have re logged into my apple id on the itunes but still no sync is happening. I don't want to erase all of the songs on my iphone as I have a fair few albums. Is there anyway I can solve the sync issue without wiping all of my existing apps and music?

It is not devices, it is computers only. You can have up to 5 computers authorized with the same iTunes account.
The computer you are using is not activated with your iTunes account with iTunes? If not, is a computer available that is activated with your iTunes account? You can deactivate all computers from one computer that is activated following by activating the computer you are using now.

Bought 2 Cd's on iTunes and it only plays the first 30 seconds of some songs on the album when listed as longer. How can I fix this?

I bought a few CD's from the iTunes store, Incubus Morning View and Make Yourself. Half of the songs on there play for the full length and the other half only play for about 30 seconds when listed as the full song. Is there anyway to fix this or re-download the songs?

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken tracks from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
If you don't see them straight away it may help to close and restart iTunes.
While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support. Do this also if the iTunes LP package itself won't work properly.

I had some time finally figuring why I could buy and download from the Itunes store, but could not load it on my IPOD. What finally worked was plugging my IPOD in to the computer, as I would when "syncing", and, after loading, it would show my device in the side bar. You have to go to VIEW in the top Tool Bar and click on SHOW SIDE BAR in the drop down menu. "SUMMARY' tab, on top, is what I clicked on to show an option of restoring my IPOD to the factory defaults. It erases everything on the IPOD, but gives an option of AUTOFILL afterwards, which it does from the computer. This is one solution of many you could try. Good luck.

I have Adobe Elements 9 and I used to be able to export HD 1080p videos with no issue. But recently, when I export using H.264 MPEG or MPEG 2, which I normally used, the high resolution videos come out very choppy. How can i fix this?

Are you running the 9.0.1 Update of the program and on what computer operating system is it running?
Is your video card/graphics card driver up to date according to the manufacturer of the card?
Is your computer optimized, including maintenance of pile ups of preview files, conformed audio files, and conformed video files?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1?
What are your project settings and what are the properties of your source media? When you say that "used to be able to export...." is that on the same computer, same brand/model/settings for the camera recording the video now in use, same Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1?
Where player are you using for the playback of these exports?
Please give us more details on the size of the projects (then and now) as well as details of the customized export settings in your Share/Computer/ route. Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 is only a 32 bit application running in 32 bit or 64 bit system. Not sure if computer resources might be taxed more so now than before.
More later.

If it is the same app for the iPod and the iPad (universal or iPod/iPhone app) and not a iPad only app, the only way is to restore the iPad from the backup of the iPod. That will wipe out all the app data currently on the iPad though.
If the iPad is an iPad only app, then there is no way.

My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can i fix this without turning off iCloud?

My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can I fix this without turning off iCloud?
I am at a new office that uses Outlook (not Outlook Exchange) which does not sync with my mobile... I just got iCloud set up on my PC to sync my contacts, calendar, reminders, etc... The sync worked (not without flaws, but the other issues seem solvable... I think), so that i can now see all my appointments on both my phone and on my PC. The problem I am having is that iCloud moved all of my calendar items from Outlook into iCloud calendar and now when I send out meeting/calendar invites the recipients may accept them, but the meeting does not get added to their calendar. This is a huge problem and may mean that i need to turn off iCloud.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!

I am replying to my own post here as I seem to have fixed the problem.
I do have some calendars that are shared. Some of those are shared with users who have time zone support turned on. So i activated time zone support on my iphone, then deleted my icloud subscription. I then signed in to icloud again and voila... problem solved.
It is a weird one as the other calendar views were always fine and when you opened an event that appeared in the wrong day (on list view), the correct date of the event was shown in the information...
one more bug in a complicated system I guess

You might need to use a faster internet connection or stonger wifi signal, or download them to your iTunes library (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519) and sync them to your iPad to watch them.

I have a 1st generaltion apple tv which was recently changed from HDMI to component cables to connect to TV; now it will not remember my server password or my apple ID information which has to be re-entered everytime I use apple tv; how can I fix this

I have a first generation apple TV. recently I have rto change from HDMI input to my TV to a component imput. Now my apple tv will not rememebr my sertver password or apple ID which I have to re-enter everytime I use Apple tv which is annoying; how can I fix this?

Changing the video connection has nothing to do with the passwords.
Are you certain it is a 1st Gen ATV?

HT1386 I recently had to reset my computer to out-of-box status. I lost everything. when i re-installed itunes, it would no longer sync with my iphone. I contacted Apple for help but they want to charge me. I've tried everything can you help?

Can anyone help me fix itunes? It will no longer sync with my iphone.

More info needed... and why didn't you have a backup of your computer to restore from?
Why won't it sync?
Any error message? If so, what does it say?
Does iTunes see the phone when it is plugged in?
Are you on a Mac or PC? What version of what operating system is your computer running?

I purchases additional storage last night when advised by iCloud that I had little storage left on iCloud. Discovered that an unknown iPhone was added to my account resulting in lack of storage. How can I cancel this. And get refund?

I purchased addional storage for iCloud after being advised that I was running out of storage. Later I discovered a iPhone which I do not own was added to my account . How I don't know. Anyway I want to cancel and get refund. How can I do this. Try various apple contact methods..can't get to talk or email anyone.

I have the same problem. For about 1 month ago I extended my iCloud storage account (+20 GB) in order to maintain my backups for iPHONE and iPAD as my account would expire 14/10. In spite of this, I got an email 15/10, which said that iCloud was reduced to 5 GB. 2 hours later I received a new email with comfirmation on the purchase of +20 GB storage plan. However, I only have access to 5 GB on my iPad and iPhone. Called Apple Support but they couldn´t help me. Did you find any solution ?

Firefox won't sync to my Android device, even though I have logged in (to the new Sync), and unlinked and relinked my phone and PC multiple times. Help?

Pretty much just what the question says. I got a new phone, logged into sync on Android, and my phone will not populate the information that it should from my sync account. I am running the new sync, am updated to the current version on both platforms, have all the appropriate boxes checked, and have tried logging out and then back in again, multiple times, in attempt to reset the sync to populate the information. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

When you say 'Sync' do you mean to the cloud?
I suspect there is some issue were space used is being reported incorrectly.
My iPad mini only has a 97Mb file to sync to cloud (I don't try to sync much of it), I have 2.2 free space in the cloud, and it won't sync. I've also noticed that some games like Fieldrunners won't save games, nor will the Drawing Pad app save pics my kids create. All of these issues seem related to how the iPad views it's own use of space.
Getting close to wiping the thing and starting again. Even an OS upgrade to 8.1.1 hasn't helped.
