IWork and iLife purchase with codes not valid on the new computer?
Hi,
last year I downloaded the iWork and iLife suites on the macbook pro provided by my school. I'm not sure how it works but I had the iWork suite and I used to update it with my Apple ID, now I can't. I just got an old macbook air (sold before the apps were included for free) and I was trying to download the suite but it's not in the purchased apps and it's not free. I used to have them, do I have to buy them again?
Regarding the iLife suite the situation was slightly different. I basically downloaded them with some codes given me by the Apple support, do they work only for a single computer?
Thank you!
P.S.: In case I can't download them again, do you know if Apple offers discounts on its apps for students?
Apple does not offer education discounts to individuals for software.
If the Mac belonged to the school, the apps also belong to the school. If you now have your own used Mac, then you will need to buy the apps for yourself.

IWork and iLife apps are _not_ showing free in the AppStore anymore. Why?
Just uppgraded to iOS 7.0.3 on my new iPhone 5s. iWork and iLife apps are _not_ showing free in the AppStore anymore, only the Buy (for a price) option is there. Why? These apps used to show up free for me earlier, but i didn't install them due to the reported system instability they caused. That instability is reportedy addressed in iOS 7.0.3 but the apps are not free anymore, are they? Looks like it's not what was advertised...
Ok... rebooting my iPhone 5s one more time after upgrading to iOS 7.0.3 solved the problem - after the reboot all the iWork and iLife apps are showing free in the AppStore again... Good deal!

I would like to transfer the music that is already on my iPod touch to a new computer. At present, my iPod touch is not recognised on the new computer. How do I resolve that so I can literally connect it to my new computer and transfer all my music? Any help is much appreciated.

It doesn't quite work that way. Transfer your music from the old computer to the new one. Then, sync the iPod.

I just recently downloaded the newest iTunes and moved all my purchased and already owned music to another PC. Every since I did that I cannot get my iPad 1 to even be recognized in iTunes. I have Authorized the PC in iTunes, but my iPad still will not allow me to sync. I'm at a loss...PLEASE HELP!!!
1. You need to authorize iTunes on the new computer with your Apple ID.
2. Make sure you turn off auto sync in iTunes
3. Connect your iPad to iTunes via USB and when it is recognized, right click on the device from the Device list on the left of your iTunes page and choose transfer purchases.
4. Once purchases are transfered and you have authorized the iTunes account, you should be able to sync. -
i would love to find out how i can transfer the saved passwords from one computer to the new computer
or is there a way that i can save the passwords in some sort of cloud or by registering them with firefoxYou can copy the two files signons.sqlite (Firefox 32+: logins.json) and key3.db from the Firefox profile folder to the profile folder on the other computer.

From a software standpoint, when you use data migration Mac to Mac or PC to MAC, why application software, like Microsoft Office or Adobe Photoshop, sometime are able to move (migrate) to the new computer without any issues and sometimes the user must BUY again the software?
Technicians told me that sometimes the Migration Data is capable to migrate the Software Serial Number of the software and sometimes does not.
But, what is the real techincal answer? What happens to the serial number when you migrate?Depends on how the App stores the serial number. Some apps fail when the file that holds the serial number gets moved and must be reinstalled.
None of that requires you to purchase it again. You just have to install it using the key you were provided with the software.
No apps will be migrated from a PC as they will not work with OS X.
Office 2004 will not Migrate as it doesn't work in Mountain Lion. -
We have a new computer, do I just sync my ipad and iphone to the new computer to transfer my data onto it? My husband has some very complicated looking instructions for transferring his music on his ipod.
No. The ipad/iphone are not storage/backup devices. They simply mirror the selected content from the computer to which they are synced. If you sync to another computer, the current data will be erased and replaced with content from the new computer.
You copy everything form your old comuter, or your backiup copy of your old computer, to your new one. -
Computer that housed my itunes died and I trying to get my library on the new computer--help!
Have itunes in my ipod nano but how do I get it to sync to new computer? Also have my entire library in computer that died. Is there anyway to get my itunes off that computer onto my new tower.
Yeah... that's exactly the way it is supposed to work. Sharing the library does not move it anywhere.
To move the library to the new computer, copy the entire iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer. -
I have an iPod Touch 4th Generation and have not updated the software since I purchased it. When I first purchased the iPod Touch, I synced it with an old computer and an older version of iTunes. I no longer have access to the old computer and no access to the older music I downloaded onto the old computer. If I update the software for my iPod, will I lose all of my music that is currently on the iPod?

Since your updating from iOS 4 to iOS 6, you will most likely lose your songs, but if songs were purchased from iTunes, you can try this:

You can redownload from iTunes on your iTouch, if running iOS 5 or better. -
I have purchased a few movies in iTunes on the MacBook Pro and after dowloading, I am not able to sync them to my new iPad. I look at the contents of the download and I have an HD file and an SD file, I assumed it would sync the SD file automatically if it cannot handle the HD on the device (although it should be able to).
What are the different reasons a movie won't sync to iPad (frame rate, file size, definition, etc.) and what are the options to make these files compatable with my iPad? Can I rip them again or run them through a conversion utility? Is there a setting in iTunes somewhere I am missing?
Is there a post somewhere thatr already covers this? If so, I can't find it. Would be great to have a baseline of what can be handled by device so I can figure out how to make my media compatable.the spcs page on this site state which video formats the ipad supports
I'd suggest converting your old videos to one of those formats
handbrake is a free program which does this for you
itunes used to be able to too when I right clicked incompatible media but don't see the option any more
or maybe it only show when one right click incompatible media and currently my lib don't have any
about the music then it's odd what formats are they?
if they are acc protected have you tried to remove the DRM this can be don using itunes as
apple don't use DRM for music any more -
I have recently installed iTunes on a new Windows 8 laptop and copied from my old XP system using an external drive. This all went ok. The problem is that i can't get my iPod classic to sync on the new laptop. I did a factory reset and re-install. It still won't sync. When I hit the 'sync' icon it does nothing. In the Options screen the option to automatically sync is greyed out and doesn't allow me to enter anything in the box. How can i resolve this?
You need iTunes on the computer. There is no iTunes for your phone. See:
Locked Out, Forgot Lock or Restrictions Passcode, or Need to Restore Your Device: Several Alternative Solutions
1. iOS- Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen

6. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
Forgotten Restrictions Passcode Help
You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.

I just opened a itunes ( apple ) account and was in the process of entering an itunes gift card as the payment option and it
said the card number was no good. It is a brand new card, just scratched of the code. What do i do now to redeem it?Hi Memalyn
Essentially, the bare issue is that you have a 500GB hard drive with only 10GB free. That is not sufficient to run the system properly. The two options you have are to move/remove files to another location, or to install a larger hard drive (eg 2TB). Drive space has nothing to do with SMC firmware, and usually large media files are to blame.
My first recommendation is this: download and run the free OmniDiskSweeper. This will identify the exact size of all your folders - you can drill down into the subfolders and figure out where your largest culprits are. For example, you might find that your Pictures folder contains both an iPhoto Library and copies that you've brought in from a camera but are outside the iPhoto Library structure. Or perhaps you have a lot of purchased video content in iTunes.
If you find files that you KNOW you do not need, you can delete them. Don't delete them just because you have a backup, since if the backup fails, you will lose all your copies.
Don't worry about "cleaners" for now - they don't save much space and can actually cause problems. Deal with the large file situation first and see how you get on.
Let us know what you find out, and if you manage to get your space back.

Apparently, this issue is a common one. I have also tried importing songs from an iTunes on an old pc I no longer use. I am still prompted to authorize my computer when I attempt to play 100 different songs. After entering my password, I receive the message that the computer is already authorized. How can I resolve this issue? I previously contacted Apple and they were unable to assist me in resolving the issue.
