My husband just got an iPad and we are wondering if he can sync the iPad to my lap top since I already have my iPhone synced to the laptop. We do not want to intermix the contacts, photos, etc from his iPad onto my iPhone or my iPhone info onto his iPad.

You should be able to sync both to the same iTunes - I sync my iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch to the same computer. With the iPad connected and selected on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, you can use the tabs on the right-hand side to select which of your iTunes content to sync to it, so you can control which apps, photos, music etc are synced to it, and (via the Info tab) from which email account your contacts are synced from. Your computer's iTunes should remember your syncing preferences for each device.

can i sync purchased apps from my ipod to my itunes then to my iphone? both are 4g

Yes, when you open iTunes, click Apps on the sidebar
these apps are all your apps
In your case, you will be able too*
*Certain iPad apps can't be transferred to an iPhone or iPod

Yes....
On the new computer, launch iTunes. From the menu bar click click Store / Authorize This Computer.
Then re download your iTunes purchases.

You should have been syncing your contacts with your computer all along.
Have you failed to do this?

My husband just got an IPAD and I have and I phone...Can more than one player sign in and play games on the I pad? (Example we both play tap fish...I want to sign into the game center and play my fish tanks ) Can this be done?

Can more than one player use the game center? I have an I phone and my husband just got the I pad I want to play my games on his i pad can I do this?(example we both play tap fish and tap hotel can I sign out of his login and sign into mine and play my game this way?)

If tap fish was an app purchased by both you can do that. If you yourself just purchased it and it's on the iPad, the iPad won't let you open it under your husbands I'd.since you have the rights, you bought it, it must be your apple I'd logged in. To do that go to settings, store, taptheapple I'd..sign out and sign in with yours. The gamecenter signing out and in will only help if youwant achievements or to play with your friends.

I just got my mac, and created a apple id. but when i tried to download iphoto, it said it was already used by a nother id! what should i do

i just got my mac, and created a apple id, but when i tried to accept iphoto from the app store, it said: these app cannot be accepted by your apple id. it was already asigned to another id's purchases list. if you don't have accsess to that apple ID and want to receive future updates you will need to purchase.
but i shoulndt have to buy iphoto, should i? what should i do????

Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple Id to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with another Apple ID with a new ID.

I recently ordered a MacBook through a local store and I was wondering if I can track the shipment?

I chose the ship to store option and was wondering if I can track the item. I see no tracking number on the email. If someone can let me know if you can track it that would be great.

Hello Gonegreen510,
Congratulations on your new MacBook purchase! I can imagine you’re very excited to get your hands on it as soon as possible, so it’s understandable that you’d want to know when it’s arriving.
After pulling up your in-store purchase via your email address you supplied when registering for the forum, I found your computer is traveling from one of our warehouses to your local store. As such, it’s not arriving through our normal mail carrier options, and we’d be unable to provide you a tracking number.
Having said that, it seems your purchase is currently on it’s on the way to our Oakland store. While I’ll keep an eye on your order for any potential updates, please know you should receive an email notifying you when it’s ready for pickup.
Thank you for your continued patience,
Alex|Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

You should migrate your iTunes library instead:

I just got a new mac book pro and i was wondering how i can sync my music from my phone to my mac book

my music on my phone to my mac

If you still have access to your Old Computer... And to have EVERYTHING as it is Now...
From your OLD computer...
Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..
Full Details Here > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751
An Added Bonus is that you will have a Backup of iTunes.

Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device

My 6th generation 160gb ipod classic is displaying the red cross logo directing me to apple support. It's completely full and I'm wondering how I can recover the files form it. The iPod isn't recognized by my computer or by iTunes, help is appreciated!

Looking for help as to recover the files, thanks!

Hello Lawrence,
I do have AppleMobileDeviceService.exe running.
My USBs are plugging in straight into the laptop. All 4 work. Just today, I synced my iPod with multiple USB ports. It works for the iPod, but the iPhone won't pop-up. The iPhone does not appear in iTunes as a button anywhere.
I am unable to use another computer for this. I can actually go into iTunes, add file to library, and add photos that way. So, it's recognized by my computer.
This should have been seperated. Basically, I don't have another computer accessible to me to back-up sync on iTunes with.
The last part means in iTunes, I can click "File > Add file to library" and the iPhone is shown as a camera icon. I can click on it and have access to photos. I can add those photos to the iTunes library. That's about as far as the connectivity goes with the iPhone right now.

Hi I have a HP Envy dv6 Laptop, and I'm wondering if I can upgrade the graphics card on here?

It has a decent graphics card but I was looking for something with slightly more kick.
Processor is: Intel Core i7-3630QM CPU@ 2.40GHz
RAM:12gb (11.9 usable)
system type: 64-bit
Graphics card I have now: Nvidia Geforce GT 650M 2gb.
Is it possible? If so you someone recommend it? Or is it not even worth the hassle?
Because it IS a laptop and idk if the graphic cards are specialized for them specifically. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks!!

Well, there is no "card" as that term is understood. It is a chip built right onto the circuitry of the motherboard and cannot be replaced or upgraded. The video you have is top of the line for recent HP consumer laptops so you cannot even get an improvement from a new motherboard. No upward headroom is available. You have to think in terms of a new gaming laptop if you want performance any better than a 2 gb GT650M.

I have an Iphone 4s and have just gotten a new computer. I would like to transfer my contacts, photos etc. from my Iphone to my new computer so that when I need to sync my phone I will retain everything just as it is now on my Iphone. At the moment, when I try and sync my computer states that I will lose everything on my Iphone. Please help someone, I have too much on my phone to lose it. Thanks

The iphone is not a backup device. Everything should be on your computer.
Copy everything form your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

I just got an iPad 2 and have not yet synced to my computer. I don't want to have all the duplicate songs in my iTunes. How do I get rid of duplicates?

I just got an iPad 2 and have not yet synced to my computer. I don't want to have all the duplicate songs in my iTunes. How do I get rid of duplicates?

You don't say whether you are on PC or Mac. For Mac there are these two programs which might help (I havn't tried either) :
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/ipod_itunes/songsergeant.html
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/ipod_itunes/idupe.html
There are probably similar programs for PCs, but I don't know what they are. On a PC you can hold the shift key and do File > Display Exact Duplicates (without the shift they may not be exact matches) - if one of each duplicate pair has the same date added then you can sort by that and then delete those with (or without) that date.

I just got new ipad mini....I want to delete all of the music that was synced from my itunes account. I have went through and deleted some songs one by one but some have a cloud icon with a red arrow on them.....is there a simple way just to delete them?

Yes there is. Those songs are not actually on your iPad. They are in iCloud ready for download if you choose to do so. If you want to remove them go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Show All>Music>Off. You can also do this in Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off.
