I just purchased an iphone4 to replace my 3gs.  How do I sync my new phone to my computer to download my music and photos etc.?

Well if you synced and backed up your iPhone 3GS in iTunes, all you have to do is plug it into your computer and right click on it in the iTunes sidebar. Then select restore from backup and choose the iPhone 3GS backup. All of your settings, contacts, music, photos, etc will be transferred.

    - Transfer your iTunes' purchases to the new computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Try making a backup of the iPod by right clicking on the iPod  under Devices in iTunes and selecting Backup.
    - Connect your new iPod and restore the iPod from that backup if you wish.

  • My mother just got an new ipad, first version.  How do I get her email address book to show on her ipad gmail?  Thanks

    My mother just purchased a new ipad, first version.  How do I get her gmail addess book to show on her ipad.  She can receive emails but cannot access her addrsss book to send an email.
    Thanks

    If she is using the mail app, there doesn't appear to be a way to sync contacts directly with gmail. You might see if there is a way to export to a Mac desktop and then to use iTunes to sync the contacts to the iPad. Otherwise the contacts will have to be manually added to the iPad. Another option would be to use gmail's web based mail. Her contacts should be available from there.

  • I just purchased a one year old iMac.  How do I create a brand new admin account?

    I just purchased a one year old iMac.  How do I create a brand new admin account?

    The first thing to do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You—not the original owner—must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
    It's unsafe, and may be unlawful, to use a computer with software installed by a previous owner.
    1a. If you don't own another Mac
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller—not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine is very old and has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for a MacBook Air. You should have received those media from the original owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To start up from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then restart the computer and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should start up in Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    Some models shipped with OS X 10.6 and received a firmware update after 10.7 was released, enabling them to use Internet Recovery. If you have one of those models, you may not be able to reinstall 10.6 even from the original discs, and Internet Recovery may not work either without the original owner's Apple ID. In that case, contact Apple Support, or take the machine to an Apple Store or another authorized service provider to have the OS installed.
    1b. If you do own another Mac
    If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to prepare a USB device, then start up the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can start from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
    2. Partition and install OS X
    If you see a lock screen when trying to start up from installation media or in Recovery mode, then a firmware password was set by the previous owner, or the machine was remotely locked via iCloud. You'll either have to contact the owner or take the machine to an Apple Store or another service provider to be unlocked. You may be asked for proof of ownership.
    Launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive—not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the  Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. If you're installing a version of OS X acquired from the App Store, you will need the Apple ID and password that you used. When the installation is done, the system will automatically restart into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    Then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the original owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed—you have to repurchase them.
    3. Other issues
    If the original owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're irrevocably linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Mac App Store Customer Service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
    If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to  authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.
    When trying to create a new iCloud account, you might get a failure message: "Account limit reached." Apple imposes a lifetime limit of three iCloud account setups per device. Erasing the device does not reset the limit. You can still use an iCloud account that was created on another device, but you won't be able to create a new one. Contact iCloud Support for more information. The setup limit doesn't apply to Apple ID accounts used for other services, such as the iTunes and Mac App Stores, or iMessage. You can create as many of those accounts as you like.

  • When attempting to purchase a song from i-tunes that was on an old ipod that I had to replace, the song is marked as 'purchased' and grayed out.  Is there a way that I can download these previously purchased items onto my new ipod?

    Lori,
    If you upgrade to iTunes 10.3, you can redownload your past purchases from the iCloud.  Just go to the home page of the iTunes Store and click on "Purchased" under "Quick Links."  It will bring up a list of your past purchases that are not currently in your library, with a little arrow icon that lets you download.

    I just purchased Adobe Acrobat Standard DC andf upgraded from Acrobat XI. When I instalkled it on my PC the print Production Tools were there and functional. I installed it on my Laptop and those tolls are not there. What do I need to do to have Print Production Tools on both computers?

    This is quite odd. I wonder if you could try something for me on EACH computer.
    Use Help > About Adobe Acrobat DC.
    At the top of the box it should say Adobe Acrobat Pro DC or Adobe Acrobat Standard DC.
    On each of the two machines, what does it say? (I think something odd has happened)

    I was not aware that the Administrator account was active on Win 8.1. On Win 7 it is inactive and has to be activated to use. For activation on Win 7 I always have to look it up on the web. There are just a few steps needed, but you may indeed have the Administrator account active. For the TEMP folder, you can simply empty it (often some files do not like to delete). The cleanup can be done with various software like CCleaner. You can also just go to the Windows\TEMP folder (I think this works in Win 8.1) and delete the files and folders found there (C:\Windows\Temp). Sometimes there is a temp folder under your user account that may be used for such files and that one could be cleaned too (C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp). I am not sure which one Adobe uses. The issue with the temp folders is that they are limited in size as I understand it. It may be someone else has a better suggestion, but if the administrator and anti-virus suggestions did not help, this is my next recommendation.

    Ho do I convert my Elements 5 Catalog to Elements 13 which I just purchased.  I followed one of the tutorials and converted my Elements 5 Catalog to a "pse.13db" file.  How do I get Elements 13 to recognize that converted file?  When I open Elements 13 Catalog Manager and browse to the correct location, it doesn't show the file.  Help!  Thanks

    Bumps a écrit:
    Yes - I can run both versions on my PC.  But I really would like to have all of my pictures in the same catalog.
    You can't merge catalogs (even PSE13 ones) in any PSE version (only LR can do that). So, converting catalogs is not the solution to your problem.
    Since you have PSE5 working on your computer and your images also, the solution is to 'write metadata to files in PSE5) and to re-import the images in the PSE13 catalog. That won't duplicate your image files and you'll lose albums/collections, stacks and version sets, but you'll recover tags, captions and ratings.
    To be able to re-import the files indexed in PSE5, you may have to move them to a new master folder.
    I am not sure what your problem with the conversion may be. It's quite possible that the resulting catalog.pse13db is ok and that the issue lies in the ability to open it in the PSE13 organizer.
    As stated by dj_page, double clicking on that file should open the organizer with the new catalog. You could test that by creating a dummy catalog in PSE13 and importing a small batch of photos. Locate the path of the catalog with the menu Help/system info. Copy the catalog.pse13db in another folder and the 'double click' way to open the organizer with that moved catalog database.
    For other users that may be interested in using PSE5 (issued in 2006) on newer OS, here is a useful link:

  • HT1725 the song I just purchased only plays for a second. How do I fix this?

    The Song I just purchased only plays for a second. How do I fix this?

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting it from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option 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 song and use the 'Report a Problem' link (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
    Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking them to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTune) - if it does that to you then try contacting 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.

  • I just purchased the new Nokia windows phone.  How do I delete an app that I installed but really don't want to keep?

    I just purchased the new Nokia windows phone.  How do I delete an app that I installed but don't want to keep?

    You are welcome! I played with the 928 in a Verizon store and really liked it. Besides the great camera and Nokia Maps, I'd be pretty excited about Nokia Music, too. As I understand it, this free app lets you create playlists from its entire music library, which can be stored on your device to listen to any time.
    There are a few members on the WP board who are really knowledgeable about Nokia and WP, so let us know if you have more questions.

  • How do I find past purchases INCLUDING price, not just that I can download them from the cloud?

    I bought some apps but I can't remember the price of two of them. When I go to "Purchased" in the iTunes store, and then to the tab labeled "Apps" it only shows me that I can download it via the Cloud..... Cool...... Alrighty.... I need the price though..... I need it so I can enter it in my checkbook. I remember how to do this with an older version of iTunes, but I'm usually spot on about entering things in my checkbook, so I haven't had to look up the price of something for a while and I don't know how to find it in the new iTunes. I could wait for it to show up in my bank account, but I'd rather enter it now... I bet this is something really easy and obvious and I'm going to feel silly once I figure it out. Any suggestions? XD
    Thank you
