I received a reminder on IP5 to perform back up. I dont have wi-fi at home. Is it necessary to perform this backup? My carrier is Verizon and I would think if anything happened to phone they should have my contacts/pictures stored on their end? Thanks to anyone who can help

@98park,
You are going to be VERY disappointed if your iP5 fails, is stolen or lost. We get posts here every day from people lamenting over the fact they did not have a backup.
You have three choices:
1. Sign up for Verizon backups (fee based).
2. Backup to iCloud.
3. Backup to a local computer.
If you do none of these, please do not ask for help when your disaster happens, as no one can help then.

How can I transfer video taken with my iPhone to my iPad WITHOUT using a computer or iTunes? I'm going to Europe for a month and want to use my iPhone to take pics and video, then come back to the hotel room and use my iPad to edit/store each evening.

How can I transfer video taken with my iPhone to my iPad WITHOUT using a computer or iTunes? I'm going to Europe for a month and want to use my iPhone to take pics and video, then come back to the hotel room and use my iPad to edit/store each evening. I don't want to use my iPad to take the video...too large/bulky. And I WON'T have a computer with me...I purchased the iPad to take with me so I could use the RDC to my home computer and avoid taking my computer at all. Is this possible?

here is a cheaper solution than camera kit and a lot easier if you have WIFI available.
I use the PhotoSync APP (I think its a $1.99) will transfer videos and photos over WIFI to any other IOS device or even PC/MAC. Great app since I like doing video and photos on my IPHONE and transfer to IPAD2 without synching through computer or doing cloud based storage.
You can even send photos/videos from your MAC/PC to your IOS devices that way too. Makes it so much easier.
Here is the link;

I have a question about using multiple ipads in our school. Each of our teachers have a iPad and AppleTV in their classroom. The issue is, with our classrooms so close in proximity to one another, is there a way to pair teacher

I have a question about using multiple ipads in our school. Each of our teachers have a iPad and AppleTV in their classroom. The issue is, with our classrooms so close in proximity to one another, is there a way to pair teacher #1 iPad to its AppleTV without effecting/projecting onto the adjacent teachers #2 classroom AppleTV?

Not as such.
Give the AppleTV units unique names and also enable Airplay password in settings with unique passwords for each teacher.

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Remove it from the BA and then remove it from the phone and then sync.... If that dont work you can unpair BA from phone and then make changes from both locations and then log back in...
Under Settings / Applications / Manage Applications / All / Sync Services / Clear Data.... This wont delete anything from phone or BA just stop the sync process until you log back into BA.

I have iphone 4 and i sent it back to my country but it doesn't work! they told me to contact apple and give imei number so they can unlock it?

many thanks

Apple can't/won't help you. The only way to get your phone officially unlocked is to contact the carrier your phone is locked to & see if they offer official unlocking. Some do, some don't. So, if you want your phone officially unlocked, you need to contact the carrier it is locked to.
There is no other way to get your phone officially unlocked.

I bought a new iphone5s and when i tried to back it up from my iphone5 itunes is coming up with "enter the password to unlock your Iphone backup" i dont have cluee what the password is? didnt even know i had made one? ive tried my itunes password?

my itunes wont let me restore my new iphone 5s from my iphone5 as it it is coming up with "enter the password to unlock your iphone backup" i dont have a password set up? ive tried my itunes password but nothing is working?

This means when you backed up your device you clicked encrypt backup... That means you need a password to unlock the backup and restore to it. Call apple support for help if you forgot your password.

I have a 3G and thought it was backed up on my phone cant find i also backed up to cloud how do I get the info

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately, I don't fully understand your question, but gather it is something to do with a backup in iCloud. The part that I don't understand is the iPhone 3G is not capable of running iCloud. Am I missing something here.

I have an ipod and dont have the password and its disabled i connected it to itunes but its not even showing up on their so what do i do to get into my ipod on itunes

i have an ipod touch and i dont have the password and its disabled i connected it to itunes but its still not going anywere or doing anything i tunes is not showing the ipod so what can i do to get the ipod from being disabled and to rest my password for the ipod

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Restore the iPhone from your backup.
See this -> http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
Then make sure you sync everything to your computer so you do not lose it.

HT1766 Where do I see if my Calendar and Contact info is backed up?

I have Windows 8 now (ugghhh!), and the look & feel of iTunes has changed.
Where can I check that my Calendar and Contacts data has really been backed up after doing a general back-up run?
(I can't back up through icloud as my iphone is not connecting to wifi, which is the main problem I've been dealing with for a few days again now, for the second time in 3 months!)
Thanks!

You can check iTunes preferences under Devices, to see if there is a backup in iTunes.
If you're using iCloud, you can check to see if your iPhone is backed up in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup, scroll to the bottom of the page to see the last backup time.
And finally, if you're syncing the contacts and calendars to your Windows computer, just open the calendar or contact app on the computer.
See this for other general info -> iOS: How to back up and restore your content

iTunes 11: How do I get the iPod button back once I go back to my music? Do I need to unplug and replug my iPod back in?

Nastyassink-
Apple's Camera Connection Kit includes both an SD adapter and a USB adapter. You can use an SD card or an adapted Mini SD card with the SD adapter. You can use a USB thumb drive with the USB adapter, as well as a USB adapter for other cards such as Compact Flash. (Some card adapters draw too much current and require a powered USB hub to work.)
It is required that the camera card or thumb drive be formatted as MS-DOS FAT, just as if it had been formatted in a camera. Photos and videos must be in a folder named DCIM, and have names consisting of 8 characters plus suffix, just as they would have been named in a camera.
Some video formats are not compatible with the iPad video player and must be converted on your computer. (The iPad can read M4V, MP4 and some MOV files.)
