I was downloading music to my iTunes account and playing music from my I tunes library when all of the sudden it stopped playing and the control panel won't let me restart the music.....why
I was downloading music cd from my PC to my I tunes library and playing music on the I tunes player at the same time when all of the sudden my music stop playing and I can't get the I tunes player to restart playing music from my library again. The I tunes equalizer / player box with timer shows the song ready to play but the controls won't restart the song.......why not, and how to I get it to restart playing my library?
- You need to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod and start anew. Is the restore button visable in iTunes? If it is they restore the iPod.
- If it is not visible try resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- If the restore button is still not visable, try placing the iPod in recovry mode. See:

I had a refurbished iPhone 4/4S. When I got it, I placed it on the charger. 3 minutes later the apple sign appears on the phone,then a bar appears underneath it. It begins to download something (Idon't know what) then it looks as if it only loaded 10%, then it stops..Several minutes later the screen turns white, the phone shuts off, and the ame thing happens over, and over, and over again. Can anyone help me fix this problem so that I can use my phone?
Hey there, welcome to Apple discussions.
Sorry to hear you're having this issue.
Some things to help solve this issue. I would recomend trying a restore in recovery mode. This would require your phone, the syncing/charging cable, and a computer with iTunes software installed. With that being said, you would then want to plug your phone into your computer, and attempt a 'recovery mode restore'.
All steps found here for your convienence.

if these are itunes purchased you can open up the itunes app on the ipod then tap the tab that says purchased then download all the songs you want to be on the ipod.

My husband and I have been using our iCloud account for music and ap purchases only. I have decided that i would like to now create a new icloud account so that i can sync my calendar and contacts. I read about doing this online and it looks simple and easy ... and yet, when i go to switch it on my iphone, there is only 1 place for an icloud account (our shared account) and it is greyed out so that I cannot change it. How do I do this?
Whenever a menu choice is grayed out, that is because you have Restrictions turned on in Settings. Be sure to turn it off.
You are confusing an itunes store account with an icloud account. You two can continue using the same ID for itunes (thus sharing purchased music, apps, etc.), but you really should have separate accounts (different IDs) for icloud, since an account is intended for one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
To create a new icloud account, go to
http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
Then go to Settings>icloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Delete Account. (have restrictions turned off) That will disconnect the device from the account but will not delete data in icloud or other devices. Then sign in using the new ID. -
IPhone keyboard won't let me type the word "fixes"
When I try to type the word "fixes", the iPhone (3G, with iPhone OS 2.2) keyboard won't let me type the word "fixes". If I hold down my finger for the last letter, and move it left and right, I can see that it is refusing to allow "S" to be typed. It switches between "A" and "D".
I have seen other examples of this in the past, where the keyboard simply refuses to type some letters, but never on a common English word before.
Has anyone found a way around this, other than accepting the wrong letter, backspacing, and re-typing?
Cheers,
Will.All this time, I thought it was me...I couldn't for the life of me type my daughter's name, Caitlin, into the phone. I would always get C-A-I-R-L-I-N. Again, thought it was just me not being able to hit that key right, though I don't really have a problem with anything else. Then this weekend, I finally tried to force the phone to type it right by trying to slide my finger to the "T", and it was completely skipped over. I went back and forth from "R" to "Y" several times. Nope, the "T" refused to be typed. Now that I know it's a confirmed bug, I feel a little bit better about my iPhone typing skills.

My husband and I share music in one itunes account for both of our iphones. We just got the new iphone 5s's and iin ttryinngto back up our old phones I have realized we SHARE one icloud as well. Can I create him a new icloud for pictures, contacts etc
You can have one icloud account and a different itunes account on the phone. I have my icloud account and a shared itunes account. He does not have to use the new icloud account as is ID in itunes and app store. He can keep using the old one.

my laptop was wiped by a virus.when i downloaded itunes and logged into my account,i tried to sync my phone but it says all my music will be wiped.how do i restore my music to my itunes account.
If you reinstalled Windows, it is likely that all your data was lost. If that is the case, you should restore from backup.
If you don't have a backup, but you have an iPod, you can recover from that, see:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/11857427#11857427
If you are in the US, you can recover purchased tracks from the store using the "Purchased" link in Quick links.
If all your data was not deleted, you will need to explain exactly what remains before help can be given. -
I have music in my iTunes account that I do not see on my iPad
I have an iPad and an iPod. Had the Pod for years. Music that is in my iTunes account, and has been for some time, suddenly doesn't show up on my iPad (and maybe my Pod, don't use it much any more). I sync regularly, but until I got some decent earphones never listened to the iPad much. Because of that, I recently noticed this situation. How do I get the music from iTunes (my whole library) onto my iPad? I have plenty of data storage, that is not the problem.
When you say that you have music in your iTunes account, do you mean that the music is in your iTunes library on your computer? If it is, you can sync the music to your iPad and it probably isn't syncing because the sync settings are not correct.
This explains how to sync music to the iPad. It works the same way for an iPod, iPad and an iPhone.

Hi Mission73,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The article below explains how to change your rescue email address and/or reset your Apple ID security questions.
You can attempt to answer your security questions in order to change your rescue email.
If you are unable to remember the answers to your security questions and the rescue email address has changed -- contact Apple ID Security for asissistance.
Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
When creating a new Apple ID for use with the iTunes Store or Mac App Store, you will be asked to provide an optional rescue email address. If you have an existing Apple ID that you use with the iTunes Store or Mac App Store, you may be asked to provide some additional security information, including a rescue email address. When you provide a rescue email address, all future security emails, such as password resets from iForgot, will be sent to the address provided. The rescue email address you provide cannot be the same as your primary email address for your Apple ID. In most cases, your primary email address is the same as your Apple ID username.

HT4557 can I share music on my itunes account with my wife's iphone?
Can I share music on my itunes account with my wife's iphone?
I have a similar problem, and have followed your suggestions with great success.
We both have seperate itunes accounts and both share the same login on our computer (although I could create a login for her if it would be better).
As I said, setting up her phone worked great, I could add all of my music, and select the apps I already had to put on her phone, etc. However, now I cannot log back into my account from itunes on our computer, I just get an error saying iTunes is not available at this time.
My phone also started asking for her itunes details each time I went to the App store / itunes on my phone, but I've changed this back to me.
So, my question is, how do I get back into itunes on my computer? Should it be possible to keep swapping accounts? -
I just updated my iTunes to the new software. When I plugged it into my computer and it said I need to reset my iPod. I did this and everything on my iPod deleted. Now, it won't let me sync my music or apps back onto my iPod. What do I do?
It doesn't say anything. It runs through the sync process like normal and tells me all of the songs that it's synking. But then when it says I can disconnect it, nothing actually synked.
