I just went from an ITouch 2G to a IPhone 3G and used the restore option to transfer my apps and info and now my itunes shows the iphone as an ipod  how do I make it see the iphone

My Iphone 3G shows up as an Ipod after I used the restore feature on iTunes to transfer my apps and info from my old iTouch 2G. As a result I can't go to "ringtones" because it does not show up in itunes as it still thinks I am connecting the iTouch?

You also want to move/copy the iPod backup file from the old computer to the new on.  It is located:
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP,  Windows Vista and Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.
After you move your music and other stuff to the new computer, restore you iPod from backup and sync.

  • Java class uses another class in a Jar file (How do I make Java see it)?

    I am trying to figure out how do I make Javac see the thinlet.class in the thinlet.jar.
    I have developed an XUL xml interface and a java program that calls the interface shown below:
    //package thinlet.demo;
    import thinlet.*;
    public class UI extends Thinlet
    { public UI () throws Exception {add(parse("UI.xml"));}
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
    { new FrameLauncher("UI", new UI(), 600, 600); }}
    when I do the normal compile, I get an error:
    UI.java:4: cannot find symbol
    symbol: class Thinlet
    public class UI extends Thinlet {
    ^
    UI.java:7: cannot find symbol
    symbol : method parse(java.lang.String)
    location: class thinlet.demo.UI
    add(parse("UI.xml"));
    ^
    UI.java:12: cannot find symbol
    symbol : class FrameLauncher
    location: class thinlet.demo.UI
    new FrameLauncher("UI", new UI(), 600, 600);
    ^
    3 errors
    This thinlet class should be in the thinlet.jar that I have added the directory to the path, the directory and jarfile name to the System CLASSPATH and it couldn't see it. So finally I tried putting the thinlet.jar in the same directory to no avail. I've searched the web for some time an cannot find anything that specifically speaks to compiling a program that has parent classes in a Jar.
    Any help is definitely appreciated.

    Any help is definitely appreciated.You just still haven't provided the jar in the classpath, or you're not using the right class name. Is the class really named thinlet.Thinlet? Or are you thinking "import thinlet.*" means to import all classes in a jar named thinlet.jar? Because the latter is not true. You need to import classes, not jar file names.

  • How do I make Logic See New Path to Logic Library?

    I have moved my logic loop library to a different drive from the one I originally installed it to. How can I make logic "see" the new location?
    Thanks

    Drag the loop folders from the finder onto the loop browse window to reindex your content - it will ask whether you want to move the loops to your library, or index them where they are.

  • I just went from OS 10.6 to 10.8. The arrow button is gone from the scrollbar. I do not see the option in "Systems Preference" any more. Am I missing something. If it is gone, is Apple going to bring it back?

  • HT2404 I just clicked on Software Updates; BUT nothing shows what's happening? How come I can't see the updates & time it will take?

    Help!  I just got this Lion, and SO many changes & not necessarily for the better !
    I went to the Apple icon, but  "Software Updates" did not show ... though I had deferred installing some updates ...
    Finally it showed up, I clicked on it, saw the updates to do - BUT when I clicked on install - the "box" that usually shows the updates & how long to install - just disappeared! I can't get to it to see what's next. (I have to leave soon & will turn off the mac)
    What's happening? How come I can't see the updates as they are installed, & how much time it will take?
    How do I know IF they have been installed?  Is this the "new Normal" for Lion? Or is there a glitch in my mac somewhere?
    How about updates you download from Apple (not bought) - they go to Downloads on the Sideboard, but are they installed automatically, & put where they belong too? Is there no more restart, etc.?
    - I just went to Systems Preference, to see the "Installed Software" - shows they were ... but don't I have to restart anymore? Are all updates now automatically placed where they belong?
    Thanks to any who can help

  • On an iphone 4s, when I tap the phone number in my contacts list instead of calling the number it goes to a "Welcome to mail screen" how do I make it call the number instead?

    On an iphone 4s, when I tap the phone number in my contacts list instead of calling the number it goes to a "Welcome to mail" screen with icloud, Microsoft exchange, Gmail, Yahoo, Aol & Windows Live Hotmail listed beneath. How do I make it call the number instead?

    Never heard of that.  I suspect it thinks that's an email address and you're seeing that screen b/c you don't have an email account setup on your iPhone.
    Assuming the number is valid, try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

    You will Not be able to get rid of it entirely...
    Other is usually around 1 GB...
    A  ' Large Other ' usually indicates Corrupt Data...
    First Try a Restore from Backup...
    But... if the Large Other Persists, that is an Indicator of Corrupt Data in the Backup...
    Then a Restore as New is the way to go...

    Hello Louise,
    There are a couple of ways that you can download your apps to iTunes on your computer. 
    First, you can transfer your purchases to from your iPhone to your computer using the steps in this article:

    Alternatively, you can download the apps directly from the iTunes Store using the steps in this article:

  • How do I make my computer the primary for my iPhone 3G?

    How do I make my computer the primary for my iPhone 3G? I am able to load music from my iTunes library but unable to delete music or create playlists on the phone from itunes. The computer I set the phone up with (primary) was destroyed.

    There is no "main" or " primary" account.
    Iphone, ipod touch, ipad will sycn with one and only one computer at a time.  Syncing to another will indeed erase the current content from the device and replace with content from the new computer.
    Copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of the old computer, to the new one.

  • I have changed the email signature on my iPhone, when composing a new email the signature is there, however when I am replying to an email it is not, how can I make sure that the signature is at the end of every email I send?

    I have changed the email signature on my iPhone, when composing a new email the signature is there, however when I am replying to an email it is not, how can I make sure that the signature is at the end of every email I send?

    Yes I know what you mean about it cluttering the thread and for personal emails it is better without the signature. However this relates to sending business emails from an iPhone so I need the signature present on every email.
    I can't find anything in Settings so I was hoping someone may have some knowledge/information/experience regarding this problem.

    Did you update to iOS 7? If yes you need to update iTunes on your computer to iTunes 11.1
    If you are using iTunes 11.0 and iOS 6.x then show the left sidebar in iTunes.
    When in iTunes on your computer use the View menu to View Sidebar. The device should show up there when connected.

  • Can anyone please tell me how to stop email previews from appearing on my screen. I have turned off the preview option in settings on both my ipad and iphone, but they still keep appearing.  Thanks

    Can anyone please tell me how to stop email previews from appearing on my screen. I have turned off the preview option in settings on both my ipad and iphone, but they still keep appearing.  Thanks

    works ok on mine - (5, 7.1.1).  Try again.  with previews set to none, mine shows the sender and the subject line only.  (you cannot get rid of the subject)    with the other settings, you get the sender, subject line and however many lines you selected.
