Lost a preinstalled app (YouTube). If I restore my home page layout, will I lose my free and purchased apps?

No, you will not. You apps are yours to keep. Restoring the home page layout will remove all folders that your 3rd party Apps resided in, then place them in alphabetical order starting from the second page.

I just got a 64 bit new coomputer and use FirFox always. My home page Yahoo an dYahoo email work fine and fill the page but all other websites there is a 3-4' border around the words. What can cause that the 64 bit instead of 32 bit?

I have tried everything I know in Windows 7 and your suggestions but nothing changes the look of each page. Only about half the page is being used for words and the rest is empty space. As I said my Yahoo and Yahoo email fill the page but nothing else does. Looks like words in a wide picture frame. This is Windows 7....64 bit...4GB memory and 1TB hard drive and Intel 3 chip

Let me also copy and repeat -- since the developers' club apparently has chosen to not give it any weight or credibility -- a comment by a completely different user, in a different thread:
"I am using the 64-bit nightly, and it is FAR faster than any release in 32-bit, and I have 2GB of ram. Usually the addon compatibility thing takes minutes, when with the nightly 64-bit, I was done in a matter of seconds. also, I notice that it is faster, pages load faster, there is less lag, and it all around seems better than 32-bit in every aspect, even though it is just automatically compiled and not tweaked."
So, the developer's club position remains, "there really isn't much need for a 64-bit version", despite comments like that. Hmmm . . .
Are you SURE you want to stand directly behind that answer, while people shoot at it?

I'm being billed twice for updating free and purchased apps

I tried updating my apps for my iphone and was billed for the updates .! I never recieved the updates because everything was refused

Are you sure you're actually being billed? Or were you just asked to update your payment information?

Will I lose my saved data in apps, games, and pictures by transferring over to a new computer?

I got a new Ipad. I'm going to sync it with all my songs and apps from my computer. I'm getting a new computer soon. When I transfer the apps and songs to that computer and update my Ipad on the new computer, will I lose my pictures and saved app data because of the new computer?

You won't lose the data if you transfer purchases and restore the iPad from a backup. Read this thread where this very same issue was discussed. Read my post (Demo) and read King Penguin's post as well. As long as you follow these instructions you should be able to move all of your apps, music, saved data, photos and all iTunes content to your new computer.
Remember to turn off auto syncing in iTunes, Transfer Purchases and backup the iPad before you sync any content at all. It is all explained here.

What to do with between Set up as new iphone or Restore from this back up? i just want to transfer all my purchased apps and contacts to my new iphone? don't want to screw thing up. thanks

I plugged in the iphone 5 to PC via itunes what should i do between Set up as new iphone or Restore from this back up? i just want to transfer all my purchased apps and contacts to my new iphone? don't want to screw thing up. Please help..... thanks

Is this a new iPhone?
If so, when connecting a new iPhone to iTunes for the first time that has been used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the new iPhone, or set up the new iPhone as a new iPhone.
If you don't want to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device, select set up as a new iPhone. No existing data or settings will be erased or changed when selecting as a new iPhone. Not that difficult or difficult at all.

HT5624 Someone I don't know is using my email address as their Apple ID to sign and purchase apps ect and I keep getting notifications in my emails. How do I stop them from using my email address????????

Someone I don't know is using my email address as their Apple ID to sign and purchase apps ect and I keep getting notifications in my emails. How do I stop them from using my email address????????

If a person is using your email address, you should change your email password and make sure there aren't any forwards to some strange email address.
An example if you were using gmail, under account settings, a forward can be set up to send messages to another email address.
If your email address is say, you own domain, such as somename@somename dot com, make sure the forwards are forwards you set up.
If your email account was hacked and the bad guy has access, you need to cut him off, first by changing the password and second cut off any message forwarding to the bad guy if he set it up. Just changing the password would keep a bad guy out, but if the bad guy set up a forward, he will still get your email.
A confirmation from Apple would have come to your email address in order to confirm that Apple ID. If you are getting the other person's purchase notifications, you would have gotten a confirmation of that account from Apple.

Iphoto won't down load because My mac is a lion 10.75 I need 10.10?how do I download iPhoto, and other apps that won't download?

iPhoto app won't down load because My mac is a lion 10.7.5 I need 10.10 ? how do I download iPhoto, and other apps that won't download? They were uninstalled by mackeeper (with me as an unwitting accomplice Thanks
I've reinstalled lion os 10.7.5 and got the app store app back.
Even though iPhoto etc are purchased by me in app store, theres no way they'll download.

then
reinstall from the original source
Could be
1 - the restore disks that came with the computer - if it came with CDs and you do not know where they are then contact Apple to see if they can be replaced
or
2 - the iLife DVD that you purchased
or
3 - the app store - log in under the Apple id used to purchase the software or to set up the computer - look under purchases - you might have to unhide or accept the Application first

Question about setting a web clip in Apple Configurator, to by-pass touching Free and Install App.

Hello.
I'm using Apple Configurator, and have a web clip linked to iTunes Preview webpage for an app.
On the iTunes Preview page, you can touch Free, then Install App.
Am I able to by-pass touching Free and Install App?
That way, the end user touches the icon, and it directs them to Sign In using Existing or Create ID.
I hope this makes sense.
Thank you,
Jeremy

Hi,
You can only enter one code per iTunes account for the same app. So if you were not to use Configurator, you would enter one code into iTunes and sync the all the iPads to that iTunes account manually keeping track of your codes for any audit purposes. You could create a backup and restore to each of the iPads. I use encrypted backup. I have only used Configurator at this time to update iOS, it works very well for that and cuts down on update time greatly. I am leery of configurator with VPP because of all of the issues posted. I would have used VPP/Configurator exactly as you had stated.
I thought from your post you were able to get all of your apps loaded except for the two that were greyed out. I was curious if you would be able to go into the App store on the one iPad that did not get the two apps because they were grayed out and sign in to the apple ID where those two apps resided ( the iTunes account you used for Configurator) and download them. I am not sure if once you associate an iTunes account to Configurator if that marks the paid apps in itunes so they can not be used. I think that it would not.
I would also call the Apple Store support for Education. They may be able to help and or they will know your area rep.
Good luck, Please post your outcome, I am sure there are many who would benefit.

Will i lose my songs and pictures if i upgrade my iphone to the 5.0 version if this isn't the original computer i used when i first got itunes?

Will I lose my songs and pictures if i upgrade my iphone to the 5.0 version if the computer i am going to do it on is not the original computer i had itunes on, my old computer died!

You can back up your Iphone in Itunes on any computer. Then restore after the upgrade if it was erased. iTunes has an option to even pick which backup file you want to use. I believe its pressing the alt key holding it and pressing restore. I did it on a windows pc so might be different. for a big update, apple iOS's are generally good with keeping files, but its always a good idea to back up your device. I just upgraded my MBP to Lion and didnt loose anything.

I just installed Readdledocs on my ipod, and now when I launch the app, I get a screen which says "downloading message" and the app freezes and won't do anything else. How can I get the app to function again?

I just installed Readdledocs on my ipod, and now when I launch the app, I get a screen which says "downloading message" and the app freezes and won't do anything else. How can I get the app to function again?
This happened after I tried to get Readdledocs to open an epub file which I created in Calibre.

This is a followup to my own posting above.
Thanks to Dave Sawyer for posting information about re-downloading an app which has been deleted. I deleted the app from iTunes. Then, when I synched, iTunes asked me if I wanted the items on my ipod touch copied back into iTunes. I said yes and then synched.
Readdledocs is now working again. It is no longer frozen. However, I have learned my lesson. I will download only pdf's from now on. I don't think it works so well with epub files. The text reflow feature of Readdledocs is exactly what I need to use for my work documents on my ipod touch.

If I update my 4th gen ipod to the iOS 5, will I lose the data on my apps?

If I update my 4th gen ipod to the iOS 5, will I lose the data on my apps?

If everthing goes as planned, your app date wil be restored to the iPod. To help guard againste a possible mishap. sync (iTunes also creates a backup) the iPod before the udate and caopy the backup file to a save location in case something happens. The backup is located here:
Where iTunes backups are stored on your computer
The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system. Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

HT2404 When I try to download free updates for apps, I've suddenly started getting an error message saying: You cannot update this software since you have not owned the major version of this software." But I do own the apps. And I haven't changed my ID

When I try to download free updates for apps, I've suddenly started getting an error message saying "You cannot update this software since you have not owned the major version of this software".
But I HAVE owned the software, for ages. (And, in any case, the apps in question are all free.)
And I don't have multiple Apple IDs.
What can I do?
Any advice much appreciated

This can occur if you bought the machine used and iLife was reinstalled with another AppleID.
This also can occur if the "free apps" you downloaded have paid upgraded versions and/or are now payware and you can't get updates.
All software from MAS is copy protected, it might be free as in "no charge" but it's not free in the sense you can share it with others.

HT4623 Will I lose my photos and information if I restore and update?

I just received the following message when updating my phone. It says my phone is in recovery mode and I need to restore. Will I lose my photos and information if I restore and update?

IF your phone is in recovery mode, then all data is off the phone already.
You will need to restore your phone but you can use your icloud or itunes backup to get your information back.
I assume you back up on a regular basis right?

I download ibooks and other apps onto my ipad 2

I downloaded ibooks and other apps on my ipad 2 and synched them to my pc. now though i can see the apps on my pc a i cannot
open the apps. Can anyone help

I hope you are not trying to open them in iTunes on the PC - are you? That is the way that your statement comes across to me. You can only use the apps on the iPad.
Am I missing something?

HT4623 just got the new update for iphone 5 6.1.4 and now i cant upload up dates for apps and down free and paid apps , it sez account not in store

updated my iphone 5 to 6.1.4 and now i cant up date app when available and can not down load free and paid apps since i down loaded the new iphone up date and will not syn ether , time to garbage it or can it be fixed....

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

Lost a preinstalled app. If I use RESTORE to restore my home page layout will I lose downloaded free and purchased apps?
