Iphone and itunes questions

When my iphone 4 is connected to my mac book and i try to change some of the settings such as manually manage music for my iphone, when i click the box then hit apply a warning comes up saying are you sure you want to delete 22 apps from my iphone. I only want to change the fact the my iphone automatically syncs with my library every time I plug my phone in. Any ideas?

Well first go to Preferences in iTunes menus and in there is where you turn off auto sync. Manually manage is something else.
Then also choose Transfer Purchased content from File menu to ensure every app on the phone is transfered to iTunes.

New iphone and itunes question

Hi all,
I just upgraded to the 4s from a 3gs. I have synched the new phone itunes. it all seems to be ok except that itunes seems to think that my phone is new every time i connect it. it brings up the lets get started screen. when i go into icloud and send my phone a test message it goes to the old on even though the number i am using for the new phone is the same i used for the old one. so im not sure where i am going wrong. it seems like itunes does not see my new phone as my primary device.
any help is appreciated!

We've run into the "authorization loop" problem with iPhone syncing as well. After moving the user account to the new MacBook Pro, iTunes keeps asking us to authorize the computer, then tells us that it is already authorized (which it should be). When you click "ok" to the already authorized message, it pops up with a new request to authorize the computer.
This was a minor problem with songs purchased with iTunes, but now if we sync the iPhone on the new laptop, it says it will delete all the apps and their data unless we authorize the computer. But we run into the same loop described above. This is a real problem, and if anyone can point me to a good working solution, I'd appreciate it. I hope Apple is listening!

I have forgotten my appleID password and the email it is linked to is deactivated, security questions aren't working. This is on my iPhone and iTunes acs so I can't sync with my new computer. How do I merge AppleID accounts and shut down the old one?

You cannot merge Apple ID accounts, that has never been supported.
You can contact the Apple ID Security folks per the listing in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 and they can help reset security questions and get the account working.

I just got a new iPhone and iTunes won't let me make purchases, I don't remember the answers to my security questions. What can I do to reset them?

Curious... Syncing Issues Between iPhone and iTunes?

Just curious... the past several months I have noted various concerns around "syncing" between iPhone and iTunes... yet don't recall any mention of whether it occurs between MAC OS or WIN hardware (desktops and or laptops). Furthermore, I am interested if anyone can comment whether these sync issues occurs mostly on TIGER or LEOPARD OS when accessing iTUNES. (Guess I should pay more attention to the noted OS field.
I ask because I am considering an upgrade to LEOPARD by end of month and don't want to jeopardize my syncing to my iPhone if it is a LEOPARD related issue. Thank you

I'm running Leopard and I've never experienced any sync issues.
These discussions include mostly problems, which is what these discussions are for - a user to user support forum for technical support issues and questions.
Which particular issue are you referring to?
Before installing a major OS X upgrade such as Leopard over a previous OS X version, it is a good idea to create or update your existing backup of important data stored on your computer's hard drive - including your iTunes library, photos, contact info, calendar events, documents, etc. I've never experienced any problems installing a major OS X upgrade over a previous OS X version, but I always update my computer's backup immediately beforehand to be on the safe side.

Apps in iPhone and iTunes can not get updated.

Apps store show 10 updates. But there is nothing can be seen in the update. Check the updates fails every time both in iPhone and iTunes .

Apps store show 10 updates.
Which App Store?
The AppStore for MacOS X apps
or the iTunes Store AppStore?
The updates you are seeing in the MacOS X AppStore would be unrelated to the IOS updates.
So where are you seeing updates?

Sign her out of the iTunes copy that's on the machine, then you can sign in with your account credentials.

I am getting the error "We're sorry we cannot complete your request on the iTunes store at this time. Please try again later." on both my iPhone and iTunes on my computer. What is wrong with iTunes? Is the server down???

I am getting the error "We're sorry we cannot complete your request on the iTunes store at this time. Please try again later." on both my iPhone and iTunes on my computer. What is wrong with iTunes? Is the server down or what? I need to download some things and update some apps...

I've been getting the same message for like an hour now. Since everything was working fine a few hours ago, and nothing changed on my end before it stopped working, I'm guessing it's something on Apple's end. They probably already know about it by now, and are hopefully working on fixing it, so there's probably not much we can do but wait for them to fix it.

Trying to activate a second iphone and itunes doesnt recognize

I am trying to activate a second iphone, and itunes doesnt recognize that it is plugged in. This is also the case with my other iphone and my itouch. Tried restarting everything and also tried uninstalling itunes and reinstalling it, nothing has worked. Is there a way to fix this or another way to activate the phone?

Try activating it on a different computer, and using a different dock connector to USB cable if possible.
If that doesn't work, it may be a hardware problem. Take it to your Apple Store for testing.

HOW CAN I RESTORE AND GET MY CONTACTS BACK.

Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
