My computer was restored and now I am trying to sync my iTunes from my IPod to my iTune files on my PC. How do I do this? It keeps wanting me to clean off what is now on my IPod an sync with contents on PC

Need help. My husband did a complete re-boot of my computer. i almost have everything back to where it was originally except for I Tubes.  I am unable to sync what is on my I Pod to my computer. I have downloaded I Tunes and it continually wants to clear data from I Pod and sync with what songs I have purchased. This would wipe out my entire library of music and photos. Any helpful ideas on what I can do?
Thank you

When you open iTunes and plug in iPhone (iPod) to computer, it appear in the left bar. Then just simply right click on you iPhone (iPod) and choose Transfer Purchases, this should copy your purchased items to your computer.
Hope this help

  • My computer crashed and was restored and now I can't get my ITunes play lists and other things restored.  I just up loaded the new software to my IPad and it is like I am starting over!  How do I get the my library back?

    I need help retrieving my ITunes the way it was before my computer was restored and upgraded.

    This is why it has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Certainly you did nhot restore your computer without making sure your backup copy was up to date.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • My iphone 5 was 'restored' and now it won't sync with my mac calendar

    Have you tried resetting your device: Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the "Slide to Unlock" screen redisplays, see if your issue is resolved.

  • Tried to update to ios7, phone was restored and now wont activate?

    tried to update to ios7, phone was restored and now wont activate?

    You have run into Activation Lock, a security feature of iOS 7 designed to prevent activation of lost and stolen iPads. there is no way around Activation Lock. You need to know the Apple ID and password used to set up the iPad originally.
    What do you mean when you say the original Apple ID is disabled?

  • My QuickTime player us not playing .avi files and says I need a codec I can't play no .avi files on QuickTime. How could I fix this because I want to play these files with QuickTime.

    My QuickTime player us not playing .avi files and says I need a codec I can't play no .avi files on QuickTime. How could I fix this because I want to play these files with QuickTime.

    Hmm . . . comes with a Utility MPEG2 Component ML app with no explanation of what it's for?
    The utility app is an "assistant PKG installer." It allows Lion and Mountain Lion users to install the older QT MPEG-2 Playback Component installer PKG file which is not allowed to run on its own under Lion or Mountain Lion since these operating systems already have a QT X only MPEG-2 component embedded in the QT embedded structure. Without this utility you would have to either copy the component from an older system to your Lion or Mountain Lion system, use Pacifist for installation, or manually open the PKG contents and transfer the component to the appropriate component folder.
    As to your "discussion" regarding the playback of AVI file types, there are really only two strategies here:
    1) You can add component support so that QT can play the files natively or
    2) You can convert the file contents to compression formats that are natively compatible with the unmodified QT component configuration.
    Each user should decide for his or her own self which approach best suits their needs for a particular source file. In most cases, conforming the system's codec component configuration to play the source file directly results in higher video quality since no transcoding takes place but this strategy will not work if a codec which is required is not available for the user's operating system. On the other hand, converter utilities tend to support more built-in codecs and are easier to use since the user does not have to concern him or herself with the nature of the particular source compression formats but at the risk of some potential loss in visual quality. As to what converter to use, once again this is a matter of personal choice. In the case of commercial converters like iSkysoft, the codecs are built in while MPEG Streamclip accesses the host operating system's QT codec component configuration. I personally prefer the free HandBrake app for AVI, MKV, TS, MTS, and M2TS conversions since it has an exceptionally full-featured X.264 GUI with some user options that 97% of users are likely to never use.

  • My computer was stolen and now my wife and i are sharing her laptop.  we have separate apple ID accounts, i upgraded to iphone 4 since the robbery.  all of her apps are on my phone and i can not get my apps or upgrade exisiting apps using my apple account

    my wife and I are now sharing the same laptop, mine was stolen, we have separate apple ID accounts.  i upgraded to iphone 4 after the robbery and activated my phone on her laptop.  when i try to download or upgrade apps her apple ID keeps popping up.  can we have separate accounts using the same laptop with different phones?  if so, how can i fix this?

    It sounds as if you're using the same Mac OS X login account on that computer. If you create a separate login account for yourself, it will be as if you have two computers (other than the fact you can't both use it at the same time, of course).
    Go to System Preferences->Users & Groups to create a new user account for yourself. Log out of your wife's account, then log in to your own account. You can now set up this user environment any way you like. When you launch iTunes the first time, enter your Apple ID and log in to the iTunes Store. Redownload all of your content. Then connect your iPhone to the computer using the USB cable - it will treat it as a new phone, let iTunes wipe the phone and set it up as new.
    You might then want to set up Fast User Switching within System Preferences->Users & Groups which will allow you and your wife to swap the laptop between the two of you easily without even having to log out one account in order to log in to the other.

  • Done restore and now it goes to blank screen with timer

    Can anyone help, I have done a restore on my ipod and now it goes from the locked screen to a blank screen with the timer,  wont let me do anything to it not even turn the thing off.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My computer was rebuilt and now my ipod touch won't recognize it as an authorised devise what do I do

    I would like to know how to authorize my computer now that it has been rebuilt? My "old computer" no longer exists, as this technicly is my "old computer" just new insides. I need to be able to manage my devises that are linked to my i touch, so that I can sinc it. It's been almost a full year since it's been sinced, and I don't want to lose my stuff!

    I am not clear as to your problem. Maybe:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    or maybe:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I would start with               
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or               
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    New cable and different USB port?
    Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • I need to restore my iPod touch, but my computer was restored and my brother doesn't remember what the passcode was.

    So I recently came back from vacation and I come back to find that my brother was messing around and changed my passcode. He doesn't remember what he changed it to and the computer that I originally used to sync it to got restored during my trip. Now I can't access my iPod at all because its passcode locked.
    How do I restore it? When I try, it says we can't restore it because it's passcode locked.

    Place the iPod in Recovery mode and connect to computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. That is the way it is.
    You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • HT4914 I purchased iMatch because my old computer was failing and I was afraid of losing my music library. Now I bought a new laptop; what is the best way for me to transfer my library to my new laptop? Will iMatch help me do this?

    I purchased iMatch because my old computer was failing and I was afraid of losing my music library. Now I bought a new laptop; what is the best way for me to transfer my library to my new laptop? Will iMatch help me do this?

    Is/was failing or has failed?
    If the old computer still runs one of these methods may be best.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    I don't have personal experience with iTunes Match, but in principle you should be able to download all the tracks currently registered to your iTunes Match account. This isn't quite the same as restoring your previous library exactly as it was. There is always the potential for iTunes match to provide the wrong version of a song and could be content such as movies, podcasts, audiobooks etc. that would have been excluded.

  • I have never connected by iphone5 to my computer because the computer was broken. Now its fixed. Will I lose all the photos and texts on my iphone5 if I restore from last backup of my old 4s?

    I have never connected my iphone5 to my computer because the computer was broken. Now that it is fixed, I want to know if I will lose all my photos and texts on the 5 if I restore from last backup of my 4s?

    If you restore to an older backup, you will get the content that is in the backup. Everything on the iPhone will be erased and you will be brought back to the time that backup was made.
