Itunes account registration

i register my i-tunes account on my old PC,then it crashed,now i cant register on new PC as it will remove everything from my iphone..any idea how to retrieve my old account?

The iPhone is designed to only sync with one computer.
Syncing with a new/different computer will wipe what is currently on the device and replace the contents with the media and apps from the new computer, there is no way around this.  This is what iTunes and iOS are designed to do.
You did move your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer, correct?
If not, here are instructions on how to do so: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527

  • Cannot complete iTunes account registration.. Good grief..

    So I bought a new iPod touch from the US military post exchange in Kandahar, Afghanistan.
    I have been trying like crazy to create an account with iTunes so that I can access the store, but nothing doing! I successfully created an Apple user ID, but when I try to use that to log in to iTunes, it says that the ID has not yet been used in the iTunes store and that I need to review my account.
    OK, fine. I go to select my payment method, enter my VALID credit card information and billing address, and I am now told that I need to contact iTunes support to complete this transaction.
    I am assuming that this is because iTunes can recognize that I am logged onto the internet from a foreign country, yet I am trying to register for an account using my address in the United States. If this is the case, is there a chance that even iTunes support won't even be able to help me with this problem?
    From what I have read elsewhere, iTunes support isn't all that...supportive.
    I mean good lord, I would be happy enough just to get on and access the free apps, but there is no option available for iTunes store access without first registering with a credit card. I tried using my valid PayPal account but I got the same results. After my PayPal account was verified, it still asks me for a billing address. I assume this is where the discrepancy is.
    So has anyone had a similar problem and already find a solution? Or did I just spend over $200 of my hard earned money on a product that promises much, but now provides me with a very limited use?
    Thanks.

    If you still have problem, contact iTune Support

  • I cannot complete the registration for an iTunes account since I do not own a credit card, nor does the rest of my family. HELP!

    I came upon registering for an iTunes account but the only payment options it gives me require a credit card. Our family does not own a single credit card.... What do I do now? Please help!!!

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    If you have a credit card on your account then it will need to be valid. If you don't have a card to replace it with then have you tried removing it from your account ? On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.
    Changing payment info : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1918
    If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen then do you owe iTunes anything or have any pre-orders/subscriptions due : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5366 ?

  • How do I merge my Itunes account with my Icloud account

    Hi Readers!
    I bought a Macbook Pro Retina today but I am running into a registration issue with Itunes and Icloud.
    When I try to register the Macbook I have to put in my Itunes account (name: mflentge), because of the use of Icloud I have to put in an e-mailadress to register Icloud to my Itunes account.
    Unfortunately my main e-mailadress already has an Icloud account attached to it, so I'm not able to register this e-mailadress.
    I would very much like to use I-cloud and Itunes from the same Itunes account (mflentge), and it being connected to my main e-mailadress.
    My question:
    How can I merge my Itunes and Icloud account?
    There are no important purchases or data on either of the accounts, so I don't mind deleting one if that means I can use my Apple ID + my main e-mailadress as one account.
    Thank you for your help! It is much appreciated.
    Best Regards,
    Max

    Thanks for your reply Winston Churchill,
    My main problem with dropping my Icloud account is that my Icloud account is registered under my main e-mail adres.
    Can I use my current ICloud account to be my Itunes account aswell?
    Also i've been thinking to switch to the @me.com e-mailadress, are there any known limitations on the use of this e-mail (I have a Android Phone for instance, will I be able to set up an Apple e-mail account on it?).
    Best regards,
    Max

  • Can I have more than one iTunes account on 1 computer for 1 iPhone?

    I just got an iPhone. However, base on the iTunes Store in my country (Malaysia) there isn't an option for music.
    Can I register another iTunes account under the USA using the same credit card?
    I note that under the registartion page, I am required to insert an address in the USA. As I dont really have one, how do I continue with the registration process?
    Many thanks.

    It is the labels and copyright owners restricting sales, not Apple.
    Most likely, Apple would love to sell as much as possible but they can only sell where they have permission.
    Copyright is different for each country and a label may have copyright in one country but not in others.

  • ITunes account for my daughter

    Am in the process of setting up iTunes on the three accounts (wife, daughter and mine) of my new 27" iMac.
    I would like to set up an iTunes account for my daughter so she can see the album artwork, but am not prepared to enter my credit card also on her account application.
    If I purchase a iTunes card with some credit, can I open the account for her just with the code?
    What will happen if the credit on the card gets to zero?
    Thanks
    Adam

    am not prepared to enter my credit card also on her account application.
    You can enter it on the registration page then delete it immediately after you complete the registration.
    If I purchase a iTunes card with some credit, can I open the account for her just with the code?
    If you wish. Instead of going to Create new accout, go to Redeem on the main iTunes store screen, enter the code, then select *Create new account*.
    What will happen if the credit on the card gets to zero?
    She will not be able to make a purchase until another gift card is entered or a CC is linked to the account.

  • Changing iTunes account to another country

    I recently bought my teenage son an iPod when he was on holiday with me in the UK. We created an iTunes account for him and I gave him some credit to spend on apps. Now that he is back at home in Denmark, he cannot access the Danish App Store because whenever he logs in, it takes him to the UK store. This is a problem because his English is not at all good. He tried to create a new account in Denmark, but it would not let him because his email address is being used by the other account. He ended up creating a new account using his mother's email address. So all of his new apps are in his mother's name, but his other ones are owned by his English account. He would also like to change the registration of his iPad to his Danish account when he finally figures out how to do this. His current account is in his name, but at my address in the UK. Can anyone help?

  • Why is it taking so long to receive my confirmation email for my new iTunes account?

    I just turned 18 today, and got a new iPad 2. I have completed all the registration questions to get a new iTunes account, but the confirmation email has not arrived in over 5 hours! Any suggestions?

    Yes I think it might take awhile, 5 hours is not too long, but I know what you mean about usually getting confirmation emails right away.. I can't recall how long it took me to recieve my confirmation email, as I registered years ago.  It could come at anytime.  You will get it soon.  If I were you, I wouldn't be worried.  I'd just give it more time.

  • Register iPhone on UK based iTunes Account

    Hello all,
    I've browsed the forums - and noticed a number of posts related to UK iPhone registrations. Common conclusion seems to be for UK users to wait until iPhone release later this year. But - practicality or roaming cost aside - I couldn't find any technical confirmation on the following:
    1. I'm using a UK based iTunes / Apple ID Account
    2. The UK iTunes account is registered with UK based credit / address info
    Can I purchase an iPhone and activate it with AT&T using the above described setup? I've got a US business address - so there is a physical presence in the US if required for paper work. But all fincance / credit is done via the UK.
    Will this work technically? Can anyone confirm / or has anyone done this?
    Thanks.
    Coupland.

    Jim is 100 percent correct. If at least 40 percent of your calls and phone usage are not done on ATT's network, they will cancel the account. See the posts called things like "ATT took away my iPhone" that are rampant on this site and the Cingular/ATT site.
    Right now, only USA customers with USA service to ATT are allowed to use the iPhone. Even some USA residents can use the phone if they don't have access to ATT signals (about 15 percent of the US right now).
    If you are in the USA as a non-USA resident, they will determine (in person at ATT, not online) your credit risk and will offer you a phone with a substantial downpayment (about 1000.00) -- but you will STILL be reminded you need to use your phone at least 40 percent of the time on the ATT network - not just a USA roaming network, but an ATT-connection to an ATT tower. If not, your account will be cancelled.
    In general, you would have to live in the USA 6 months each year to get a contract to begin with, and then pay international roaming rates while you are back in your own country (exorbitant).

  • My Itunes account won't activate

    I keep on trying to log into my itunes account and it keeps telling me to activate it and when I try to tell it to send me a new activation e-mail it tells me to check that my time and date is correct and I have checked that and they are both correct. It also tells me to make sure that I have alowed cookies and I have made sure that happens but still every time I login it tells me to activate my account. just to let you know the activation link that apple has sent me it sends me to this link ---> http://www.apple.com/itunes/affiliates/download/

  • IPad stolen: any chance to know iTune account change

    Hi dear all,
    2 days before my iPad was stolen from my home. I know there is lot of ways to find it.. provided it is connected to wifi or 3g. apple says find my iPad is used to trace it. But I think it is not good for a stolen one. The people who steal this will ether wipe everything or restore to factory default. And it is very simple also even if there is a passcode we put in the security. So this option is meanless. Second thing is i have already registered this iPad in my apple account. Is there any way to get notified whenever the iPad connects with another iTunes account other than the one it is originally registered? I hope the serial number and the IMEI number of the product can never be changed. If this is right then i think it is very simple to get a notification when account changes.
    I have 3 more questions..
    1) How is this Find My iPad works?
    (in my case i was logged in to Find My iPad when it was stolen and i was using only wifi only. But there was a passcode given to it. so there is no option other than restoring it to factory default for the thief.)
    2) Is there any option to find the carrier which currently using my IMEI and serial number?
    3) Why this product registration is for? (is that only for checking the status of warranty and repair?)
    thanks in advance for any reply

  • ITunes account - serial number needs correcting

    I upgraded my Blackberry to an IPhone 4 on Friday;  as I did not have an ITunes account I set one up, but by mistake I entered the wrong number as the serial number of my phone.  I actually put the vodaphone simcard numbe.  I am keen to correct this important detail as soon as possible.  Can you tell me how, please? thanks

    Sorry, but I'm confused. The iTunes Store doesn't ask for the serial number of your iPhone when you set up an account in the Store. Are you referring to the registration of the iPhone with Apple? If so, just go through the registration again, using the correct serial number this time:
    https://register.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/GlobaliReg.woa
    though if that is indeed what you mean, I'm surprised it would even take a non-Apple serial number.
    If that's not what you meant, please post back and clarify.
    Regards.

  • Might Be a dumb Question...about making an iTunes account

    when you make an iTunes account
    It makes you enter billing information
    So is having an iTunes account free?
    Just having one not including downloading songs or anything.
    I want to find the album art 4 all my music but it wont let me without an iTunes account
    So, Is creating an iTunes Account Free?
    No registration fee?
    Or Monthly/Yearly fee?

    Yes, an iTunes account is free.
    When I signed up I didn't enter my billing info and you don't have to unless you plan on buying songs. As long as you don't buy songs you don't have to pay anything and you don't have to enter your billing info.

  • ICloud with multiple family members sharing one iTunes account?

    How will iCloud work for the case where multiple family members share an iTunes account but each has his/her own iPhone/iPad/PC?
    Will iCloud replicate content based on email address, unique Apple ID, iTunes account, or??  If iTunes, we could have trouble as three of us share our iTunes account (started when our daughter was young and continued for simplicity).

    Keep one Apple ID for iTunes purchases (apps, music, etc.) for all family members on the iTunes Store and use different Apple IDs for each iCloud user. That worked for me.
