    From you description, it sounds like you were using "1-click" to purchase & somehow switched to "shopping cart" for your purchases. If you want to go back to 1-click, go to your iTunes preference>store tab, the top section of the store tab is where you indicate which method you want to use to purchase your music.

  • This may be a stupid question, but....

    So, once the media gets put on the iPod (music, movies, whatever)
    That's it, right? Dead End? You can't load it back into iTunes? or transfer it to another computer... right?
    Here's why I'm asking. I just spent a week ripping all of my cd's onto my new iPod (Xmas gift) and would not necessarily want to keep all of those tunes in my iTunes folder on the computer. So, all the music is on the iPod, but the iTunes library is empty. If I wanted to put a song back into iTunes from my iPod, could I do that?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    There are software on the market that does this (Anyone?), but if you have iTunes on manual update and then connect your iPod you will be ok. You can go to "My computer" and "Tools". Then allow for hidden files to be shown. When you connect your iPod you will have this as an external drive and you can copy the files to your computer and then pick them up by iTunes. However it is very IMPORTANT that you did not leave it on automatic update. Then you will loose everything on your iPod when connecting it. The best thing to do if you do not have enough space on your computer is to buy an external hardrive that you can connect through the USB. This is fairly low priced these days and you will have your music and videos even if your computer breaks down.

    I am not a knowledgeable user - have what may be a stupid question!  I just purchased a TV show series on iTunes and downloaded all episodes for the season.  But I believe i want them on my iCloud instead of my laptop.  How do I transfer them to the Cloud or duplicate on the iCloud?

    You can't transfer any purchase to the cloud yourself, whether a TV programme/series will show in the cloud for redownloading in the future depends upon what country that you are in (TV programmes can't be redownloaded in all countries), whether you move countries (you can't redownload purchases made in another country) and if the rights-holder keeps them in the store (they occasionally remove their items).
    As you bought it on your laptop then you could turn Settings > iTunes & App Store > Videos (under 'show all') 'on' on your iPad and it might show in the Videos app on it with a cloud icon against it for streaming/redownloading (it might also show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes Store app for refownloading whether or not you turn that 'on') - but that depends upon your country and only whilst it remains in your country's store. Similarly if you delete it from your laptop and tick the 'show iTunes in the cloud purchases' tick box on the Store tab in Edit > Preferences it might show in the TV Shows part of your library for redownloading (and whether or not you tick that it might show in the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading).
    But you should be taking a backup copy of it, and anything else that you download from the stores, there is no guarantee that you will be able to redownload any item.

  • This may sound like a stupid question,,,but can i downlaod other programmes to my ipad, and use them like i would on a pc/net book ?

    this may sound like a stupid question,,,but can i downlaod other programmes to my ipad, and use them like i would on a pc/net book ?

    No.
    It is not a replacement for a computer.
    It mirrors the selected content of your computer.
    The only programs that can be loaded on an ipad are those found in the app store.

  • Stupid Question, but.......

    I run TM on three Macs (two iMacs and a MacBook Pro). I really do not know much about TM other than once set-up it runs pretty much on its own backing up the computers. Does it back everything up including iTunes? I know that this is probably a stupid question but if it does back up iTunes, is there a need to separately back up iTunes to DVDs/CDs or another external drive?
    Thanks!

    Definitely NOT a stupid question. And the answer is . . . it depends on how much risk you want to take. As great as locally-attached external drives and Time Capsules are, they may not protect you from fire, flood, theft, or direct lightning strike on your power lines. So if your music (or other data) is really important to you, and difficult, expensive, or impossible to replace, then yes, you need an off-site backup in addition to TM.
    There are many ways to do this. Some folks alternate between a pair of portable externals with Time Machine, keeping one attached for a week or so, then swapping with the other in their safe deposit box, workplace, relative's house, etc. (You do have to tell TM when you do this, and shouldn't go much longer than 7 days between swaps.)
    Others copy their data to DVD/RW(s) periodically, and take them off-site.
    Still others use a different app, like CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper, to copy just their iTunes folder, and/or iMovie folder, etc., to a smaller portable external and take that off-site.
    Still others, if their data isn't too large, store a copy online, either via a MobileMe subscription on their iDisk, or with a 3rd-party service like Mozy.
    And there is an option within iTunes to do incremental backups to CDs/DVDs. I haven't used it, but it's been recommended here.
    This may seem a bit like wearing a belt plus suspenders, but backups are one area where many of us have learned, often the hard way, that +Paranoia is Prudent!+

    Hi!
    This might be a stupid question, but I just bought an IPod G5 60 GB. When you firstconnect your IPod you have to setup your ID. I'm using my brothers computer, who has an IPod too, so now I'm wondering when I set up my ID with his Itunes does his Ipod still work with it??? Or would his ITunes just see my IPod? Or does his Ipod ID change to my ID?
    Or does it work without any problems, to setup two IDs on the same computer??
    Thanks!

  • This is a stupid question but I needed to ask because I don't want to go there and not being able to buy it, but can I get the iPhone 5 brought straight there when I go to an apple store?

    This is a stupid question but I needed to ask because I don't want to go there and not being able to buy it, but can I get the iPhone 5 brought straight there when I go to an apple store?

    And I meant go to the apple store physically without preordering it online, and I meant the Southampton one. So could I just stroll in apple store and buy a iPhone 5 in Southampton apple store and buy the iPhone 5 straight away? Because I didn't want to have to wait? I just want to go in and buy it and go out with it, if you guys get what I mean? And felipeV if it is in stock could I just buy it and leave with my iPhone 5?

  • This is probably a stupid question, but what does the red circle with a number in it mean on iCal? It looks just like the emails notification. I do not have anything do or up in my cal.

    This is probably a stupid question, but what does the red circle with a number in it mean on iCal? It looks just like the emails notification. I do not have anything do or up in my cal.

    Actually, another person on the "more like this" had the right answer. It meant I had a notification for an invite that I needed to respond to.
    Hope this helps you as much as it helped me.

  • This may be a silly question but how do I get my music from my old ipod to the Ipod touch. when I go to move my music a error pops up saying your music wasn't copied to this ipod because it can not be played on this ipod.  what can I do??

    You will need to do it using a third-party utility such as Phone to PC. Also, see:

  • HT204053 Stupid question, but how do I get to/access my iCloud?!

    Stupid question, but how do I get to/access my iCloud? All this time, I've been under the impression that every time I plug in &amp; lock my screen, things on my phone are backed up in my cloud, but I've never been able to find it to check! And, yes, I'm blonde! Please help me!

    You can't see the backup, all you can do is confirm that it was successfully completed.  To do this, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and look at the very bottom under Back Up Now.  It will show the time/date of your most recent backup.  If you see this, you do have a backup in iCloud and can restore it to your device in the future if you ever need to.  (You also can't see any of the files in a backup, you can only restore it to your device.)

    Had me stumped for a while too ...
    On the screen that presents all your "Blank" documents, simply touch the word "Blank" under the preview (not the actual preview) and you'll get a dialogue to name your document.

  • This may seem a silly question, but how can I create a new mailbox on my iPad?

    This may seem a silly question, but how can I create a new mailbox on my iPad?

    A new mailbox/folder - you can't, not yet. If you're using an IMAP mail account, you can create a mailbox on the server (either through webmail or desktop mail) and it'll appear on the iPad.
    We've been told the upcoming iOS5 will allow you to do so (I assume, provided you have IMAP).
