I upgraded to 8.1 and now my iphone doesn't appear anymore in the itunes screen. I can see the iphone photos on my computer screen but there is nothing where the device used to show up. I can't back up and I can't see how much storage space is occupied.

Does anybody know how I can restore my itunes to recognize my iphone? I updated to Windows 8.1 and now there is no recognition of my iphone as a device in the itines window.

Hi skippy2012trev,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you updated your Apple Id and password but now you are being prompted for the old information in iCloud. You are on the right track by changing the Apple ID back to the previous email address temporarily so that you can sign out. You should not need to verify the email address. After you edit the Apple ID back to the old email address and then sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, edit the Apple ID back to the address you would currently like to use. There is no need to change the password again, only the email address, unless you prefer to update the password again.
If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support
Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Tap Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Sign Out, then tap Sign Out to confirm. If you're using iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap Keep on My [Device] or Delete from My [Device]. In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
Cheers,
Joe

Everytime I try and sign into my iCloud account it tells me I can't log in due to a server error, but there is nothing wrong with my server . It also wont allow me to view any of my Photos or Documents that i have backed up.

Hi,
Are you running any Anti-virus software or do you have your firewall turned on? If so, disable them and try again. If that doesn't work, delete the iCloud account and then sign it back on again.
Make sure you are running the most current version of the iCloud Control Panel:

Is there a way to resort an ipod touch to the point before a restore was done on it? It is telling me there is nothing in the icloud and I need to reset it back up.

s there a way to resort an ipod touch to the point before a restore was done on it? It is telling me there is nothing in the icloud and I need to reset it back up. The reset was done before I could backup the icloud and itunes to the computer and it wasn't done with my permission.

Read this Apple document about the iCloud Photo Library: iCloud Photo Library FAQ - Apple Support
The following is from that document:
Can I use iCloud Photo Library to save space on my device?
iCloud Photo Library automatically keeps all your photos and videos in the original, high-resolution version. Follow these steps to choose how you store your photos and videos on your device:
In iOS, tap Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera, then select a storage setting.
In OS X, click Photos > Preferences > iCloud, then select a storage setting.
If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. All of your original, full-resolution photos and videos are stored in iCloud while device-size versions are kept on your device. You can download the original photos and videos over Wi-Fi or cellular when you need them
The bottom line is that you'll still have some copy of your photos on your hard drive but they can be smaller, optimized versions.

How much storage space do I currently have for the Basic Adobe FormsCentral subscription?

I am researching alternatives to FormsCentral but cannot seem to find how much storage is offered with our current Basic FormsCentral membership (ie how many GB of storage)? Is there a way to tell how much storage I am currently using with my existing forms?

I'm not very techy, so be gentle! i am using midvd app to burn home movies to dvd from iMovie '11 version 9.0.9. It now burns the dvd but there is nothing on the disc. its not recognised by the iMac or any other dvd player.

I was using midvd app(i never had idvd) to make home movies on dvd from imovie '11 version 9.0.9 with no problems before xmas 2013. ive just tried to make a new one today and it wont work.
It seems to burn to the dvd (you can see a mark on the back of the dvd as if it has some info on it) but it wont play on imac (just says blank disc) or any other dvd player.
I have tried reinstalling midvd app and also tried 2 other dvd creator apps and the same thing happens the app says its burning and the external superdrive whirs like its doing something but it wont play.
The only thing i have done since xmas is all the updates to the operationg system and updated imovie (i didnt like the new version so went back to using the previous one)
Any ideas - i am new to all things mac!

When you export your movie from iMovie, are you choosing H.264? That is the only compression method supported by this miDVD. Youc an give this a try first:
Use Share > Export to Quicktime > Movie to Quicktime Movie > choose Options and then make your choices in Settings, etc (you can choose whatever size your video is - mine was 720 HD at that time):
If that does not work, I'd suggest going to their support site as they claim to be able to burn to DVD.... I just checked their site and here is their list of supported file types:

I created a book at the Ibooks author. But there are pages where the number of the page does not appear. How I can solve this problem? I thank you very much for any tip.

I created a book at the Ibooks author. But there are some pages which the number of page is not visible. What can I do to see the number of the page?

Have you changed the template?
Some pages may not have numbers in place as default. If you have changed the page or the template page, you may have added a object which as pushed the number out of view, or an image may be in a layer on top of the text.
If you select one object on the page...then go to Edit, select all, you should see the outlines of any content no matter that content may not be seen. Look at the bottom for a page width rectangle outline.. IF its there, you need to shuffle the content until you find that box, and use Arrange > bring to front.

I am looking for my Aurora profile on a hard drive which must be repaired but there is nothing in the default location.

Hello All,
Basically, my Macbook Pro died on it's a*se a month ago.
The hard drive from said computer is readable but needs to be repaired/erased and reformatted before it can be used as anything other than an external hard drive.
I have looked in Application Support for the Profiles folder but there isn't one.
All I get in Application Support is a Mozilla folder which leads to Extensions and eventually one solitary Javascript file for Adobe Contribute.
I have copied the "Contents" having right clicked on the Aurora application and shown contents.
Will that contain all my passwords and bookmarks if I replace it when the hard drive has been formatted and reinstalled into my laptop?
I would definitely like to get back the bookmarks as they were accumulated over some 8 years of Firefox browsing and many long hours of work avoidance!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

How much storage space does a back-up drive need to run time machine on the 2TB iMac 2011?

I've just purchased a new 2011 iMac with 2TB storage...I have a G-Drive with 250 GB and I'm wondering the minimum size a back up hard drive must be to back-up my new hard drive using Time Machine. I already bought an Apple Router 2 years ago so buying the 3TB Time Capsule router/hard drive would be redundant. Any thoughts?

A very difficult question to answer, why because we don't know how much data you will have on your computer. As a general rule of thumb your TM drive should be 2-3x the size of the amount of data on your HD. So for example if you only have 100GB on your internal HD then your TM drive should be 200-300GB. So you need try to figure out approximately how much you will store on the internal HD. A good rule of thumb is how much did you store on your old computer. If I were you though I'd play it safe and use your G-Drive for something else, perhaps somewhere to store your photos, music or movies. Then go out and buy yourself a high quality 2-3TB EHD, why that big....simple because eventually all TM EHD's fill up. So by purchasing the largest EHD you can afford is simply putting off the inevitable by investing up front. There are three drives I recommend for a TM drive, one is the G-Tech series. They are a high quality with plenty of features. The others are:
OWC Mercury Elite Pro series
LaCie d2 Quadra series
Both are equally high quality with similar features to your G-Tech. Personally I use LaCie (I have 4 at the moment) however I wouldn't hesitate to use OWC or G-Tech either.

Where do photos go when shared to iTunes on iPhone on Windows? iTunes under Apps shows somethings been shared based on the size, but there is nothing in the iTunes photo section, and it says 0 photos???

I'm new to iPhoto, and I'm trying to figure out where sharing a photo to iTunes goes on the iPhone4 and/or Windows 8?
The Windows iTunes App section indicates something was shared and has an appropriate date and size, but the photo part says 0 photos, which makes it a little hard to delete.
Running the latest versions of iPhone, iPhoto, iTunes, and Windows.
Thx

Sharing to iTunes means the item is stored in the Individual app's file sharing area.
When your iPad is connected to your computer and selected look for the Apps tab. Select that then scroll down. First there will be a list of all your apps. Scroll down below that to find a list of your apps that support file sharing. Select iPhoto and you'll find the files you have shared to iTunes. Copy or drag them to your computer and move them where you want them.

HT4623 I've updated to iOS 7.0.4 but have lost access to iBooks and the itunes Store - the icons are on the screen but there is nothing on the page when I click on either icon/ any ideas about what has happened & how to sort it?

Can someone help me to be able to access the iBooks & iTunes sites now that I've updated ?

Try a reset, press and hold both the home and power buttons for 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own. Check apps.

Have Elements 8. We now keep getting Programme error messages. Have tried to reinstall original disc but there's nothing on the disc?

Have old version of Elements 8. Keep getting programme error messages and various functions no longer work. Have tried reloading the disc but for some reason there's no longer anything on the original disc? Really don't want to have to fork out and start again.

I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?
I am running Yosemitie on a iMac.

Watching some movies the other night and my MacBookPro started humming like the disk drive was running, but ther was nothing in the disk drive. Was I being hacked and is my financial info doomed? doomed?

On a MacBookPro useing ox 10.6 It sonded like my hard drive was spining like a disk drive. Disk drive was empty. Was I being hacked? Also the next day time machine asked where to "back up" as ther was no choises available. It has never asked that before.

You were probably hearing the cooling fans speeding up to dissipate the extra heat produced by displaying movies for an extended time.
We would need more information to figure out why you were asked about where to back up. Was your backup hard drive connected to the computer and turned on at the time?

I upgraded to 8.1 and now my iphone doesn't appear anymore in the itunes screen. I can see the iphone photos on my computer screen but there is nothing where the device used to show up. I can't back up and I can't see how much storage space is occupied.
