I have software problms, I want to restore my iphone, but I will lose all my songs. How can I preserve my songs and photos before i restore
I cant seem to import the present songs, photos etc on my phone so that I can restore. I have software problems. Why can't I transfer my photos to my new mac computer?
" Why can't I transfer my photos to my new mac computer?"
What photos? You can import camera roll photos ( taken with the iphone) as you would any other digital camera.
Photo library pics are synced one way only. As they came from your computer in the first place, they should still be there and included in your regular backup of your computer. Copy them from the old computer to the new one.
The music sync is one way as well. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
You should copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer to the new one.

I want to update my IPODtouch, but it will erase all my data. How do I sync my ipod to a new computer so itunes will not erase my data???
Follow these instructions. When you restore the iPod from backup as the article says your iPod will also be updated.

On another PC I want to backup my bookmarks but my Firefox browser is not working how can I do the backup before I reinstall Firefox.
Firefox can't renew it's last tabs and now won't run and let me do a backupIt is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

I have to wipe my computer clean as I have a corrupted file some where, I was wondering if I will lose all my keywords if i do this and what should I do to pervert this.
Keywords are stored in the catalog. Just be sure your catalog(s) is backed up as well as all you image files before reformatting the drive.

I have an old I pod that was syncd with a windows computer, now i am trying to sync with my mac itunes account. We have the same i tunes account but it is saying i will lose all my songs if i sync now. Help?
I would recommend you use a program called senuti that allows you to copy your songs over to a new computer from an iPod. Unfortunatlly you have to pay for the full version but it allows you to have 1000 free song capacity of copying over and a movie counts as the capacity of 1 song.

I have been charged by iTunes through my credit card but I didn't buy any application, how can i know iTunes charge me for?
You can check the purchase history on your account via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, though I'm not sure if that shows auto-renewing subscriptions. Have you added or changed your credit card details on your account (when you do then a small temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the details are correct and valid, which should disappear within a few days) ? If you haven't changed your card details or can't find or don't recognise what the charge is for then you can contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

HELP! I want to reinstall my iMacG5, but I lost the original OS disc, how can i do? pls Help!!!
I want to reinstall my iMacG5,
but I lost the original OS disc,
how can i do? pls He!!!With the kernel panic your Mac is suffering I would suggest that once you get the DVD for your Mac that you boot with the first one in the set in your Mac with the D key depressed. This will start AHT. It will test your hardware. Kernel panic are generally caused by hardware problems.

After restoring how can I get my notes and photos back?
I plugged my iPad then it shut down and when I plugged it again and it showed that I need to restore it..
Now how do I get my notes and photos back...You'll have to resync using your own computer. It should restore from your backup.

should I do a full reset of TM (per the instructions at the link below) prior to setting up the TC?
I'd start by just selecting the new destination. Do the "full reset" if you have trouble with that.
do I need to set up the network portion first and then turn on TM?
That might make things easier.
even though my mini was previously only connected wirelessly to the old router, I plan to connect via Ethernet to the TC (for one thing, to make the initial backup run faster). Do I just turn AirPort settings off on the mini, or does that need to be on in order to setup the TC?
To assure that your first backup is over Ethernet I'd turn off AirPort until it's done. Check the order in the Network panel of System Preferences. I'd move the Ethernet connection item to the top of the list.
In other words, does the initial setup of the TC from my mini happen wirelessly or over Ethernet?
Either way should work fine.
I currently have a networked printer conneceted to my old router, which I will connect via Ethernet to the TC. Can I assume that, once I have set up all of my family's PCs/Macs/iDevices on the newly-established TC network, that I will have to re-establish connection to the printer as well?
Not necessarily. I'd only do that if the printer isn't available after the switchover.
I would like to reformat the second external drive (the one previously being used for TM backups) for possible reuse with another computer. Can I simply reconnect this to my mini and reformat?
That's what I'd do.
is TM going to see it and try to back it up?
If you've already reconfigured Time Machine to use the Time Capsule drive, there shouldn't be a problem. -
I found an old iPod classic of mine that is synced to a computer that is long gone. I want to get the music and photos from this old iPod onto my new computer. Every time I hook the iPod up to my new computer it wants to delete what is on the iPod and replace with the contents of the iTunes that is currently on the new computer. I don't want to do that. I want to keep what is on the old iPod and transfer it to iTunes. Any help? Thanks!
See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

You are going to have to get a different credit card, or purchase an iTunes gift card.

p.s. i dont want to to keep happening over and over its happened at least seven times in the past month or so. also my ipod asks my apple id and password all the time....please give me ideas,,,
You shouldn't "lose" your iTunes music when restoring if you have synced it to your computer.
If you are a resident of the U.S., have iTunes 10.3 or later installed, and iOS 4.3.3, you can re download your iTunes media for free.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Apple requires that you "verify" your Apple ID account information anytime you update or download iTunes content whether paid or free. It's a security precaution. Better to enter your data everytime then have someone compromise your account. -
