Keychain losing all my passwords on sync
There was an older post that said restoring from a backup solved the problem, but I had backed up AFTER the stupid thing started freaking out. Now, every time I sync to .mac, I lose every single password in my keychain.
This is beyond horrible, and makes me question whether there is any use to .mac at all, if I can't use it without whacking my system. This all started when I deleted all my old keychains to get rid of 3 years of junk in the keychain.
Help????? It's really frustrating....
Fixed this myself.

Not all my passwords are synced across. Are there certain cases when it is not supposed to?
I have two computers, one at work and my personal laptop. Both are set up to use FF4 sync, and I checked, passwords are enabled to be synced. However, I found that certain passwords are not synced (well, one at least) -- I thought adding the page as a favourite might help but no luck. The password is still not synced. Are there circumstances in which passwords should not sync (by design)? Or is this some bug?
Thanks for the great browser, guys and gals!It's possible that particular Password is somehow "broken" to sync. In which case, Sync will skip it.
To correct it;<br>
- Delete the entry that isn't syncing from your passwords. <br>
- Sync Now<br>
- Then visit the page for the password, add the password<br>
- Sync Now, again<br>
- Finally, Sync Now, from other machine. -
My question remains the same.
Just restore your old one. This wipes all content from the iPod and resets all of its settings back to its defaults.

I am stuck in guided access and I don't remember my password. How do I get out of it without losing all of my picture and apps and such?
Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes. If the iPod asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode or if you do not have the syncing computer, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode:

Can you reset a forgotten password without losing all data on an iPod touch
How can you reset a forgotten password without losing all data.
You have to restore from the computer to which it is synced. Everything on the ipod should be on the computer so it can be put back on the ipod after restore.

my laptop had a virus and I am trying to sync my IPHONE 4 to my desktop, how can I sync my phone without losing all my music, apps and contacts?
You are talking about the menu bar of Itunes, right?
Yes. With iTunes open the menu bar is at the top of your screen.
where exactly is the Store/synck you iphone option?
After you authorize the computer connect your iPhone then follow the instructions here > iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer
When you are done transferring the data to the desktop, right or control click the iPhone under Devices left side of the iTunes window then click Back Up.
That way you will have a backup just in case you need to restore your iPhone. -
I have all my music on an external hard drive. I just transferred all my files to a new hard drive . How do I sync all my files with my itunes library without losing all my playlists etc and keep everything intact?
Launch iTunes with the Option key held down, click on Choose Library, and specify it. If the external drive doesn't contain the iTunes database files, create a new library there and import that music.
If the library contains any rented movies, they won't play on a different computer.

Please Help! Somehow I have managed to mess up my password and now I am locked out of my Ipod. Is there a way back in without losing all my photos?
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.

How can I sync my iPhone 4 with a new MacBook Pro without losing all my data and settings?
I used to sync my iPhone 4 with a PC running Windows XP until the hard drive died. Thankfully, I already had a backup of all my iTunes media (Songs, TV Shows, Movies, Podcasts, Apps, etc), so when I bought a new MacBook Pro, transferring my iTunes library was easy.
My problem now is that I want to sync my iPhone 4 with my new MacBook Pro without losing all the data and settings. I have already used iTunes to back it up and transfered my purchases onto the mac. I just need help to sync the iPhone with the Mac without losing app data, emails, contacts, settings.
Everytime I click on the tabs (to sync contacts, apps, music, et al), I get an error message that reads:
"Are you sure you want to sync apps? All existing apps and their data on the iPhone “Ryan's iPhone” will be replaced with apps from this iTunes library."
What do I do? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Can't get my Music off of my iPhone 4...
My computer died & had to get a new one, so now I cannot sync my iPhone 4 with the new computer, without losing all of my Music, because the only Music I have is on the iPhone 4 only, not on the computer. No Backup anywhere : (
If I choose to sync it tells me all of the Content that does not match the iTunes library on the computer will be erased, do you want to proceed & I have to say no.
How do I replace the music library on my Computer with the Music on the iPhone?
I got my pictures off because you can access them when you connect the iPhone using Windows 7 but you cannot see any of the music so you cannot access it when using windows so don't know what to do...
Help...The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer. -
Hi there,
Well the title says it all really.
I have to sync my iphone 4 with my new laptop as the old one broke. How do I do this without losing all my pictures, music, contacts & things purchased form the itunes store?
It seems really silly that everything gets wiped off the phone when using a different laptop. This problem must happen quite often as I am sure I am not the only person who has had a pc that has broken.
I hope you someone can help. All the stuff on my phone is important to me.
Many thanksPlease search the forums. This has been covered here extensively.

How can I sync my ipod 6g. to a new computer with out losing all the info
My computer is starting to fail so I bought a new one. How do I sync my ipods they are 6 gen to the new computer with out losing all the data that is on the ipod?
Was your iPod previously set up to Manually Manage (where you dragged/dropped the music) or was it set to auto sync (where it started sycning as soon as you plugged it in.)?
If it was set to Manual, you have no worries. Just continue on your way.
If it was set to Auto, you will have to transfer your purchases or redownload them from the iTunes store.
You're either going to have to get the other music back from the websites/CDs you got them from before or find an iPod ripping software program that will do it for you. -

Trying to sync my iPad and iPhone to a new account without losing all information
Okay here is the situation. I have an iPhone and an iPad all synced to my iTunes's account. My fiancé has as iPhone and our new iMac synced to his iTunes account. I am fully aware that you cannot merge two accounts. We would like to use his as our primary account since that's what we set up on our iMac. How can I sync the iPhone and the iPad without losing all the information on both?
You will need to connect both to your computer via your USB cord then launch iTunes. Take a look at this link, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386
