Just got a new router yesterday and my husband's iphone and my ipad are asking for a guest password.  Don't understand.

Just purchased a new router yesterday since ours got struck by lightning.  Now my husband's iphone and my ipad are asking for guest wifi passwords.  Don't understand. 

Some new routers come with the standard connection as well as a guest account. The guest account can be used for when friends come over and want to use your Wi-Fi connection. You can give them the guest account password and still keep the main account password private. Make sure you are logging on to the main connection and not the guest account.

    How did you get your songs onto your iPod Touch?
    If purchase directly from iTunes you can download them again.
    If your iPod is synced to iTunes on a Windows PC, then, sync your iPod to that computer.
    If this is your first Mac, are you migrating from a Windows PC?

    Ask the Verizon store to exchange your iPhone for a different iPhone 4.
    UPDATE - Sure, try ckuan's solution first.  Then use mine if that fails.

  • I just got a new Macbook Pro, plugged my iPod into it and lost all my songs on my iPod.  How do I get them back?

    I just got a new MacBook Pro, plugged my iPod into it and noticed all my songs didn't transfer, including the 6 new ones I just purchased.  I then brought it back to my PC to sync, and lost all my songs on my iPod.  I'm now receiving all kinds of weird messages that the name of my iPod is a duplicate and cannot be synced (no matter what I put in it).  During the process of loading it on my Mac., a bunch of odd emails were popping up to sync.  I just kept deleting and adding mine.  Is it corrupted? What have I done??? I am a personal trainer and live by my iPod.  Please help.

    Your post is abit confusing, especially on getting those weird messages and emails,( assumed in your Windows machine.)
    Most likely you have Restored the iPod using the new Macbook pro, using the same name as that in your Windows machine, hence the duplicate name warning, as it is trying to sync Automatically.
    If you are syncing your iPod to both the Mac and Windows, you must set it to Manually Manage Music, in the first machine that you setup iTunes with the iPod. Read thsi Apple Support Article
    In iTunes, Preference, tick on Prevent devices syncing automatically
    Hopefully your music are still in both your iTunes library,
    Connect the iPod to the Mac
    Restore it (just to fix any filesystem corruption by the Windows end)
    Set it to Manually Manage Music
    Sync your selected songs in your library.
    Whern sync complete, Eject it
    Connect it to your Windows PC.
    Select the song in the library
    Sync it.
    It should work if your ipod Hardisk is not giving any problem.
    Good luck!

  • I purchased an album a while ago and just got a new ipod so i downloaded all my purchases, and it all downloaded, but it downloaded the wrong songs. It says on the title that it is the correct song, but the audio is a completely different album. any help?

    If you have been using the mac.com Apple ID to make iTunes purchases recently, then there should be no issues continuing to use it with the new iPhone. I would abandon the new ID as you will never get Apple to merge the two IDs. I have had a mac.com ID for years and continue to use it with my iPhone 4S.
    Tell us the issues that you encounter trying to set up the iPhone with the mac.com account.

  • Just got my  new phone - tried to download from app store and screen has frozen. Help?

    Just got my new iphone and tried to download Angry Birds from the app store.  BUT screen has frozen.  Any suggestions?

    Reset the iPhone by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button and the home button for 20 seconds (maybe longer) until the Apple logo appears, ignore the red slider.  Then turn back on. You won't lose any data doing the reset.

  • I just got a new phone I went to purchase a song and it said since you have a new device this is your first purchase you must answer the security questions I don't remember the answers to the questions what do I do

    I just get a new phone I wait to pie a song and my phone said this is your first purchase on this device so you have to answer these two security questions but I don't know what the answers are to the question I forget so how do I change them so I can purchase stuff

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • Just got a new router and now my ipad 1 says it can not connect to the server, even though it says that it is connected to wi fi

    Just put in a new router and now my ipad 1 will not connect to the server.  It is connected to the wifi though.  Does this mean my ipad is too old?  Any suggestions on what to do?

    You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
    Your router may not have given your iPad a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the "i" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

  • I just got a new laptop.  How do I install iTunes and set it up so that I can still store my 80 gigs of music on my external hard drive?

    I would also like to set it up so that if I unplug my external hard drive and take my laptop somewhere else, I can still have access to iTunes on said laptop.  I realize that I wouldn't have access to the music that is on my external hd but I can still access the music that I have purchased from iTunes, right?

    If your external drive has the right ports, you should be able to plug it up to your Mac and copy over your photos and wav files. You'll probably (I don't know this for sure as it's been a long, long time since I've dealt with wav files) need to convert the wav files to MP3 or some other format (but I would try opening them directly from iTunes, first - wait a second... yes, iTunes will open wav files).
    There are only a fixed number of ways that Windows drive can be formatted and a Mac can read (though not necessarily write) them all. So you should have no trouble with that.

  • I just bought a new computer. have my music on my iphone and ipod but not appearing on my itunes account. Is there a way to get my music from my iphone to my itunes account?

    i I just bought a new computer. The techs that set everything up and transferred data from my old computer said that my playlists would appear when I downloaded itunes. that is not the case. Is there a way to transfer my music from my iphone to itunes?

    If the ENTIRE iTunes folder was moved or copied from the old computer to the new computer, then everything is there.
    Simply open iTunes by holding SHIFT while double clicking on the iTunes icon and then point iTunes to the iTunesLibrary.itl file.

  • I just got a new router from ATT and I cannot get my pinter to connect it fails at no filtering

    I have a Envy 100 e-all-in-one D410a printer.  Every time I try to connect, it finds the wireless SSid name, then I enter the WPA password, it tries but then fails.  It fails on the no filtering.  The router is an ATT Westell. 
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    AT&T (as well as most ISP-issued routers) are non-standard.  If you want to avoid headaches in the future, go buy your own Netgear or Linksys!
    On the router did you change the channel to 11 or 1?  Did you change from WEP to WPA encryption?

  • Just got a new router, now iPad having trouble staying connected to wireless

    It seems the wireless connection is sjakey on iPad. At home I never had any problems until recently after getting a new wireless router for the house. iPad sees the wireless network, connects, but often disconnects. Signal strength is fine, but it won;t hold. Any suggestions?
    At my friends house, it sees his network and connects, but only works with email. Safari doesn't work or any app that requires wireless connection.

    Shawn is speculating. None of us know if 2.0.3 will be released in September or indeed ever. 
    Can I ask what type of encryption you are using? WEP, WPA or WPA? 40bit WEP needs a five ASCII character (or ten hex) password to work properly with all devices and 128bit WEP needs a thirteen ASCII character (or twenty six hex) password. It is much more preferable to use WPA though as you can use a password of any length and WPA can't be hacked nearly so quickly as WEP.
    Hope that helps.
