Hello,
I wanted to syncing itunes to my ipad2 in order to upgrade ios from 4.3.3 to 5 but lost all photos + all other files...
txs for your help:)
Scroll down and see the "Update Your Device Using iTunes" section here:
HT4623
There is no "update icon" in iOS versions earlier than iOS 5.
The update is very large (over 1.2 gigabytes). You need a good internet connection to download it to your computer. Maybe you'll need to take a trip to a city to get a good enough connection.

i downloaded the latest update ios 7.0.4 and update my iphone 5, but to my surprise i couldnt locate the downloaded file on itunes and i've also checked my itunes folder, still cant see the file. pls anybody who can help.
The downloaded file is probably stored at C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates. In general it is probably best to "download and install" updates than download and then install later. Note that you cannot revert to the older firmware if you don't like the update, even if you have the old .ipsw files.

I have just over 100gig of music in my iTunes library plus what ever else I add in the future. Because of the amount I had to save my music library on an external drive as my laptop did not have the memory to hold it all. I want to back up my iTunes library and save it on a different external drive, one I store all my back ups on. Is this possible? If so how can I do it?
To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them. -
I shall open delete my present account with iTunes and open a new one - but I do not have the password. How can I then delete the present account??
Since you can't delete Apple IDs and having multiple Apple IDs can cause confusion, what you may want to do is rename your existing Apple ID to the new email (desired Apple ID). That would in effect do what you want, get rid of the old and give you the new.

I want to return my iPad 3, but I did not have an apple account at the time of purchase, and when I type in my order number and proceed to click "cancel order", it prompts me to log in with my apple I'd and then tells me that I am not authorised to do anything on the account in relation to the transaction. What should I do?
You can view and edit your orders without an Apple ID by logging in with your order number, along with the shipping zip code or email address.
I copied the text posted above from this website.
http://store.apple.com/us/help/viewing_changing_orders
Click or tap on the Order Status link here and you should be able to type in the order number and your zip code.
To view or edit your Apple Online Store order, visit online Order Status and log in with your Apple ID and password. -
3TB Timecapsule version 7.6.4 is CONSTANTLY losing WAN connection. Comcast is our carrier, and I've ruled out the modem as it downloads at 30mbs consistently.
Want to try and update firmware of Timecapsule, but it will not display an "Update" icon.
Grrrrr.....makes me miss my stupid PC set up as I could force it to do what I want!
Intermittent connection screws up Netflix, VOIP phone, Amazon, Streaming music via Spotify/Pandora, general internet access.....whole family is ****** off.
Any tips/tricks/ideas???
daveDowngrade firmware to 7.6.1 .. as the latest is just lousy.
It is easy to downgrade.. hold down the option key whilst you click the version number. in Macs.. lots of stuff is hidden behind an option key.
I also strongly recommend a factory reset and use all SMB names.. not apple type names..
ie TC name.. TCgen4
Wireless name TCwifi (or give names to both bands.. TC24ghz and TC5ghz).
That helps all the non-apple part of the world.. connect.
Also Mavericks has now changed over to SMB as well. So even Mac is now windows networking.
Generally these two things. .7.6.1 firmware and SMB names will fix it.. if not post again as is another step that is possible.. controlling the WAN speed of the TC. -
My ipad 3 says it cannot back up as there is not enough storage. my choices are "setting" or close. It will not let me select either of thes e and just goes black. I went to my MAC and increased by cloud storage but this did not seem to help
Any suggestionsReboot the iPad by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if it appears. That should get it operational again and you can proceed from there.

Can't figure out what happened to the purchased tunes that did not download to my iPad 2. Seems to be OK on my iPod, but not my iTunes library. Help :-)
I've no idea why things might have gone missing, but if there is media content on the iPod that isn't in your library see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
The user tip includes a link to a backup tip which you should use to make sure that you can recover your library in the event of any future problems.

All Photos disappeared . Pls HELP !!
About 2 days back my iPhoto disappeared without warning.I have since got the iPhoto library however all the pictures are gone.I do not have any back ups.
I have tried the steps mentioned on other post but nothing seems to help.
(When i follow this step : iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder) , there's no Original folder.
ThumbJPGSegment.data
Thumb64Segment.data
Thumb32Segment.data
ThemeCache
Library6.iPhoto
Library.iPhoto
Library.data
iPhotoLock.data
iPhoto.ipspot
Contents
com.apple.iPhoto.plist
Auto Import
AlbumData.xml
Image search in HD shows only about 10 pics and no sign of my 24 events saved over the past year.
Is there anything that can be done to recover the pictures? It really is not fair on anyone to spend $100+ on those recovery tools for something that happened without any fault of theirs.
Any help will be very much appreciated . Thank You !
P.s : Called the technical support today. The lady on the other hand was not only NOT helpful at all but was very condescending. This is the first time i had to contact Apple Support , and it turned out to be a bitter experience.
Regards,
Sad first time Mac User.Welcome to the Apple Discussions. This is a first. I've not heard of a library removing the Originals and Modified folder for any reason.
First, download and run Find File to search for "Library6.iPhoto". Find File will search in areas that Spotlight does not. If you find another Library6.iPhoto file then you have another library and that may be where the photos are.
Use can use Find File to also search for ".jpg" to see if it can find any more than the 10 pics you've found.
If all else fails you'll need to use a 3rd party application like SubrosaSoft FileSalvage to recover the deleted image file. FileSalvage will run in demo more to indicate if it can salvage your deleted files before you have to purchase it. Data Rescue II 1.2.2 is another application that can recover deleted files.
Although the horses are out of the barn you might consider getting an external firewire hard drive for backup up your important file with Time Machine. The HDs are not expensive, about the price of the file recovery apps. I just bought a Seagate Freagent-Desk 500 GB external HD yesterday for $90.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete. -
I was having problems with the software and iTunes, took the iMac to the apple store and they wiped it clean and then helped me restore from my backup. W were able to do most of it but had the pictures left, and it would take to much time, so they sent me home with instructions, I followed the instructions to the letter but got a message saying that the pictures could not be installed because I was not the administrator and I am stuck, can someone out there help me?

Itunes will not longer load, how do I troubleshoot the issue?
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.

I have changed i cloud email recently, and wanted to set up my new iphone 6 from 2 months old back up. Later I found out that icloud has old email, but it doesn't recognize password to sign out because it is not in i cloud system anymore. Now I cant turn off stupid icloud to reset my new iphone 6
How can I change icloud email or reset and erase new phone 6 if it is stuck on an old apple id which doesnt exist?The fact that the email address doesn't exist anymore doesn't matter. As far as the Apple ID is concerned, the email address is just a user name. As long as you know the password you used, it should be fine.
If you don't remember the password, start here:
