I wiped my computer and reinstalled firefox on it, my tablet still has all my bookmarks on it, am i able to sync my tablet to my computer and get all my information back onto the computer? everytime i try it says it can not connect to device???????
Can anyone help me?
Hi!
You should be fine. How are you, exactly, trying to pair both devices?
If the pairing code (3 lines with 4 characters each) doesn't work for any reason (you should get the code from the computer and add it to your tablet) you can get the Recovery key from your tablet and use it to connect the computer to that account.
In order to get the Recovery Key, you need this add-on in your mobile device: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/addon/aboutsynckey/
Once you get the recovery key, follow the steps described here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-set-up-firefox-sync#w_connect-another-computer
I hope it helps.

How do I sign in to my iTunes for the first time? Everytime I try it says I have not used iTunes before, and to review my account information.
It sounds like you are trying to create a new icloud account, not just logging into an existing account. When you type in your Apple ID and get that error, it's because you are trying to create an account using the same ID that is already being used in another account.
Go to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen. If you are logged in, press the Delete button, then try logging in with the existing ID.
As for pics, the most secure way is to connect ipod to PC with USB and look at the Photos tab for your device in iTunes. Using Photo Stream is another way, but it doesn't always work, depending on conditions. -
Hi, I have a new cell phone, I wanted to give my iphone to my father, instead of deleting the content on the iphone I have deleted the entire iphone. It starts up no more. iTunes will not recognize the iphone. How do I get my old data back onto the phone?
Place the device in DFU mode (google it) and restore as new.

I have an iPhone 4 that I just updated today to ios 6, now when I go to back up the phone to my PC, it says it can't because I don't have the latest version of iTunes. But i have iTunes 10. Please advise.
There is an updated version number 10.7.0.21 that is available if you go to the iTunes link here on Apple.com. It won't show up under Apple Software Update and if you check for updates via iTunes it likely won't show either.

I want to use an old 3 GS iPhone that is no longer in service as a phone now as just an iPod to play music. When I connect the phone to the computer with iTunes running, iTunes says it can't connect to the device because it didn't get a valid response from the device. How can I get the system to recognize the phone, and let me rename it as my iPod, instead of my phone?
As an aside, the current installed operating system on this old iPhone is 4.2.1, but that wasn't one of the selectable options in the operating system list dropdown below. Don't know if that makes any difference.Hi maddogdne,

the ipod is disabled, when i plug it in to my pc it says it can not connect without the passcode being put into the ipod, how do i fix it?
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.

Halfway through the OS X Yosemite update it says I am not connected to the internet (when I know I am because I can search through the app store). How can I fix this? I cannot get on Safari because it requires an update to Mac OS X 10.9 or later.
Just to be clear. You have downloaded the Yosemite installer. However you say while it's updating you get the error you are not online. This is confusing since you shouldn't be able to use your computer in the process of updating.
Exactly where do you see you need to 10.9 to get on Safari? -
I got a movie (the mist) from the itoons store. My ipad says I can not play it. How do I get this to work????
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Hello, I can't no longer received emails in my Ipad, it says it can not connect to the servidor... what can I do ?
Have you ever been able to recieve emails on the iPad and on that Wi-Fi network?
The quickest and most likely fix will be testing on another Wi-Fi network.
If that doesn't do it, give this a shot -> iOS: Unable to send or receive email -

Hi nok555,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are saying that you are having issues connecting to the iTunes Store or App Store (for example, to buy a game or in-game purchase), you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store - Apple Support
On the other hand, if you are saying that you are seeing a Connect to iTunes icon screen on your device, then this article may be more useful:

Hi There Linc Davis,
Wow, you are the best.
Yip this is what the website looks like. Great job Linc Davis.
Not surprised that the "Shop" tab is missing. Darn.
Well can you try to access it's "sister" website: astralmusic.com and astralmusicshop.com?
Since you are awesome with the "Flash" can you investigate if this website has a issue withis this "Flash" too?
Please Linc Davis -

I just upgraded my hard drive. now how do i get all my stuff back onto the computer
I just got my iMac back from repair. I had to replace the hard drive. The Geneus people wiped the drive and said all i have to do to get my desktop back the way it used to look, with all my pictures and documents and stuff, was to install from a time machine or external hard drive. WHen I plugged my hard drive to import everything nothing happened. So i skipped the step. Now how do i go back and install evertything?
It doesn't just happen, you have select the backup.
Start from scratch - Insert the Installer DVD and boot to it by holding down the C key on startup. OK the language page, then go to the menu bar (don't touch the continue button yet).
From the Utilities menu select Disk Utility.
In DU, select your internal drive in the sidebar (the top item with the makers name and serial no.). Run Repair Disk. If that comes up as disk OK, click the partition tab. Select the partiton from the drop-down above the graphic; 1 partiton is all you need. Go to the options button and ensure that the partition scheme is GUID and the file system to Mac OS Extended (Journalled). Name the partiton (usually Macintosh HD), click Apply.
When the Macintosh HD volume appears, quit DU and continue with the installation.
When asked if you want to migrate from another source, choose either Time Machine backup or another drive, as appropriate. If it's not connected, you'll be prompted to connect.
You can choose what to restore - user data, applications, preferences etc.
It's best to do this now, rather than create an account and then use Migration Assistant; MA will create another account and you'll have problems accessing your data.
