I initially set up Sync on my desk top but want my Favorites of my laptop to be on the server and have not set up my laptop yet. How do I replace the data on the server with my laptop info?

I downloaded Firefox 4 on my desktop and setup Sync. I just recently downloaded Firefox 4 on my laptop and have not setup Sync yet on my laptop. I want the Favorites of my laptop to be the data on Sync and overwrite what is already on the server via my desktop. How do I make my laptop my main computer now? Also, once I setup Sync, does it allow me to download the Favorites to be permanent on my desktop or on my laptop if I reformat it at a later point?

Is your device recognized by your computer? If yes, copy the pictures and videos as shown in this article:
Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer
If it is not recognized, try this first: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Disable autosync in iTunes, right click on it in the device list and choose "transfer purchases" to copy apps and other media bought in iTunes to your new library.
Do the same again and choose "backup", to create a manual backup without syncing.
Since your device will be erased due to the new iTunes library during the first sync, you can use this backup afterwards to restore your settings and data.
Set up at least one contact and event on your computer before you start, to be able to merge calendars and contacts.

  • I cancelled my OS lion download after a few minutes and told them I do not want it and they have not put the credit back on my account. I reported the problem and have heard nothing after a week. How do you get to talk to the "Store"

  • Schwab brokerage website not working with any version beyond 3.6. Continully get kicked out of the site and have to log back in. 3.6 version works fine. None of the other version will work with Schwab Client Website. What is the problem?

    As I select tabs on the Schwab Client Web Site I am kicked out with a message that says I've timed out and must log back in. All version beyond 3.6 have this same problem.

    Going all the way back to Firefox 3.0.5 is shear foolishness, it is 14 security versions behind the last 3.0.19 release. And that version is missing at least a dozen security updates that were applied to the 3.5 and 3.6 versions after support for 3.0.x ended.
    If you are not happy with Firefox 4, you should have installed Firefox 3.6.17. That is very similar to the 3.0 and has all the security fixes that have been released since support for Firefox 3.0.x ended last year.

  • My Iphone 4s says connected to TV and will not let me watch any videos on Safari, and only plays sound through the device. I have not messed with the settings, and have not connected it to anything bluetooth either. It's update is IOS 6.1.3

    I have an Iphone 4S and It won't let me watch videos on my safari, which I do everyday. It says that I am connectef to a tv, yet I have not connected it to a tv during the entire time i've owned this product. I have not connected it to anything bluetooth either. It plays the sound through the device, but it will not play the video at all. the update is IOS 6.1.3

    Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
    - Next try the manual install method of:
    iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
    Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
    - Then try on another computer

  • I had an I phone4 in 2011 and I had a huge camera roll of pictures.  I sold the phone and have not had an i phone again until now another iPhone4.  The whole time I've owned a iMac and still do.  Should my pictures from my camera roll back in 2011

    that used to back up to my mac.   I sold my iphone and lost my pictures in a crash on my imac, so is there a possibility my pictures are still somewhere I can get them.  I have another iphone 4 again, but I cant remember my old logon.  When it askes my email to send my a reset password it gives my one im using now.  When I try the security questions it says my birthday is wrong  .......help

    Videos aren't included with Photo Stream. Photo Stream is for photos only.
    Syncing an iOS device with iTunes does not involve the Camera Roll. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera, and all photos/videos imported should be included with your computer's backup along with all other important data.
    Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are included with the backup for the device. Were you backing up your iPhone wirelessly via wi-fi with your iCloud account, or were you backing up your iPhone on your computer via the iTunes sync process?
    If included with your iPhone's backup with iCloud, you can transfer the backup to a new iPhone or iOS device. There is no direct access to the iCloud backup for an iOS device. There is direct access to the backup stored on your computer via the iTunes sync process, but the PC is dead.

  • I have an Olympus E620 and have bought an IPad 4th Generation. How can I transfer my pictures from the camera to the IPad?. My camera does not take SD cards.

    I have an Olymput E620 and iPad 4th generation, how can I download the pictures off the camera to the iPad?
    The only cable I can find with lightning and usb is the apple camera adaptor but it is £25 from Apple which is a bit expensive if it will not work. Some peoples reviews seem to say this will not work, I can not use the camera reader by Apple as this only takes SD cards and my camera takes XD and compact flash cards. I have realised that you cannot use this cable on a card reader which is a shame and means taking more cables on holiday with you and more likely to get lost. This is so frustrating as one of the reasons of buying the iPad was to use, to transport photos whilst away instead of having lots of cards which do get lost and damaged. I hope someone can help as there seems to be a lot of confusion as to what works in cases like this.

    go to start - computer - right click on ipod and import pics.
    Peace, Clyde

  • HT3702 I purchased an app for my iPhone on 7/23 and was billed accordingly, however, today on 7/25 I was billed again though I have not bought any other app. How do I contact apple to rectify the problem?

    I've been billed twice for a single purchase. How do I get Apple to rectify the problem?

    You could either try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that app and use the 'Report a Problem' link.
    Or you can contact iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store

  • I am Whenever I click a button on any web page there is no response. I have gone through the settings and have not found what needs to be changed to enable

    I open web pages, such as adobe, and click the button, in this case to download Flash Player and there is no response. I have opened and reviewed the settings for foxfire and have been unable to find anything that might remediate this issue. Additionally, I have also checked the settings in Trend Micro and have uncovered nothing there that would remediate this issue.
    Interestingly, the button on this page appear to work quite well.

    You may need to turn off the feature of "warning" you about redirects. In some cases Firefox does not display the infobar and just silently blocks the redirect, which I suspect is what is happening on download sites.
    To test this theory, open
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the General mini-tab, ''uncheck'' the box for "Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page"
    Then try the download again (you might need to reload the page before trying again, depending on how the site is designed).
    Any luck?

  • I can no longer see my tabs on my browser. I have checked the settings and have it set to show them but I still do not see them anywhere. Help plz?

    When I have numerous tabs open I used to be able to see them along my browser border. My daughter pounded on my keyboard and now I can no longer see my tabs but I know they are there because when I go to close the browser it warns me that I'm closing multiple tabs. Anyone know any tricks to make them reappear?

    Try to delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (or hardware acceleration) is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • I just moved to the UK and am trying to charge my computer yet it won't charge when plugged into the adapter, what am I doing wrong? I'm almost out of battery!!

    I just moved to the UK the US. I have a 2009 Macbook Pro and today attempted to charge it, with an adapter for the plug.  BUT I can't get the computer to charge, what am I doing wrong? I am almost out of battery! Help!

    To be on the safe side, get the travel pack for the magsafe; the UK 3-pin adapter replaces your 2-pin US adapter on the transformer.
    Meanwhile, check that the adapter you're using is compatible with the US 2-pin; most adapters sold in UK are for French and German 2-pin plugs, which are slightly differently spaced, so you may not be getting a proper connection.

    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if it is connected to the Internet by Wi-Fi or cellular.

You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.

  • How do I restore iMovie if I deleted it by accident and have not set up Time Machine

    Hello,
    I am aware there is another post similar to this however I do not have Time Machine set up therefore I can not restore to a previous date before I deleted iMovie. Is there a way to restore it without having to purchase it? Thanks!

    unfortunately its $14.99 now. i figured it would allow me to reinstall it from the app store but since it wasn't technically purchased from appstore and came stock with the laptop...that option does not exist.
    any other recommendations?
