I just upgraded to the new iphone 4, but am hesitant to get it plugged in b/c I don't know how to make sure all the apps purchased on my iphone 3 get to the new phone. can't seem to find instructions so I'm sure it just "does it", but hesitant to literally pull the plug. thanks.

HT1386 I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S). I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone. But not sure how to do that.

I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S). I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone. But not sure how to do that. When I open iTunes it has a button that say "Back Up iPhone", but I'm not sure what that does. When I go into the sync options it say I have another user account and asks me if I want to merge of replace. I'm assuming it's trying to tell me I have an older iTunes Library, but don't know that. Geez, maybe people over 60 shouldn't have iPhones, iTunes just bafles me.

Hi! I've got CS3 Design Standard - the actual disks and Software License certificate. It was installed on my laptop which crashed and could therefore not be uninstalled. I have now installed it on my new MacBook Pro, but cannot get it registered with the serial number. Is it because it wasn't uninstalled on the previous laptop? What to do now?? Thx!

Maybe this can help someone else... I simply had to properly uninstall CS3 and reinstall it again after that. I think that sorted it! I also remember having a similar issue with Macs at work a couple of years back. Not sure whether the same applies to CS5/CS6. Here's a link on how to properly uninstall CS3 on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Mac OS. I'm on OS X 10.9.2 but it worked just fine. Remove Creative Suite 3 and CS3 products

Hello evanfromvic
If you have a back up in iTunes, you can restore from that back up. The article below will assist with getting that backup restored.

Iphone 4s coming friday, what is the best way to get the notes content from iphone 4 to 4s without doing a restore? i want the new phone to be totally new but not sure how to get notes content across.

What is the best way to get the notes content from iphone 4 to 4s without doing a restore? i want the new phone to be totally new but not sure how to get notes content across. If I do a restore as I have when previously from one iphone to another it has shown (in settings, usage) the cumulative usage from previous phones so all the hours of calls on all previous iphones will be displayed even though its brand new. Anyone know how I can get my notes (from standard iphone notes app) to my new iphone 4s without restoring from previous iphone 4. Thanks for any help offered.

First, if you haven't updated to iTunes 10.5, please update now as you will need it for the iPhone 4S and iOS 5.
Once you're done installing iTunes 10.5, open it. Connect your iPhone to iTunes using the USB cable. Once your iPhone pops up right click on it. For example: an iPhone will appear and it will say "Ryan's iPhone."
Right click on it and select "Backup" from the dropdown menu. It will start backing up. This should backup your notes.
Please tell me if you have any problems with backing up.
Once you backup and get your iPhone 4S, you must follow these steps. If you don't follow these steps, you will not be able to get your notes on your new iPhone 4S.
Open up iTunes again then right click on your device (iPhone 4S). Once you do you will see a dropdown menu. It will say "Restore from Backup..." Select this and it'll ask for a backup, select it from the dropdown menu. For example "Ryan's iPhone - October 12, 2011." Pick that and it will restore to your backup. Do this when you get your iPhone 4S so you will not lose anything. Even though you're restoring, you're getting back, since you're getting the previous settings, notes, contacts, mail and other settings from your old iPhone. You'll still have Siri though! So, restore when you first get it. Also frequently backup your device, as it will be worth it. You can restore from a backup if something goes wrong or save your data for a future update.
Once you do that, you should have your notes on your new iPhone 4S and iOS 5.
Please tell me if you need any help.
I hoped I answered your questions and solved your problem!

I'm not sure how to get data from phone to computer

I have the Desktop Manager and the phone hooked to the cable.
It seems to only have coices I don't want. I do not want is a full backup or restore or synchronoizing or sending anything to the phone.
I just want to do a few very basic things:
1) I want to copy pictures from my phone onto my computer, such that I can view them with standard Windows software.
2) I want to copy my address book from my phone onto my computer, such that I can view them with some standard Office app, doesn't matter which one.
3) I want to copy my calendar so I can view it with some standard Office app, doesn't matter which one.
How do I do those?
Thanks
Solved!

I can answer #1 I believe...
When I plug my BB 8830m into my computer it always pops up on my phone screen and asks "Do you want to turn on Mass Storage mode?" I answer yes and when I go to my Windows Explorer it shows a new drive called "Removable Disk (E". It may come up with (D depending on how many other drives you already have attached to your computer. From there I just click on E: drive and it lets me surf through my BB phones files. You can copy/move your photos, ringtones, docs, etc. to your computer this way.
Good luck!

I own 2 ipods an ipod nano series 4 and ipod series 6 I want to store different tunmes on each ipod, but when I try to sync the series 4 with I tunes I get a message that says there is not enough space on my device. How do I achieve what I want?

O wn 2 iPod nanos series 4 and series 6 I want to sync different music on each iPod but I get the message when trying to sync the series 4 that there is too much data for the sync to take place. It seems both iPods have the same name, so I guess I have to rename one, how do I do this?
Or is there another solution
Any help appreiated

It would be useful to you if they had a different name, but the computer knows they are different. Create separate sync playlists for each device and go to the Music tab when it is connected and specify which playlist should be used for the sync.

Download I-Tunes 11.1.4 Failed: says Apple Mobile Device failed to start. seems like it has something to do with MSVCR80.dll, but not sure what to do about it

Says Apple Mobile Device failed to start. Seems like it has something to do with MSVCR80.dll, but not sure what to do about it. Now I have no Itunes at all

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features(Later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.

Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

Newbie here, i have a question, i was looking for but not sure how to ...

hi guys, i have a question, hope i'm not doing something wrong here...
well i was wondering if i put all my songs, on itunes, and than transfer to ipod... could i erase all the tunes i have on my computer? i mean, i would love to be able to free the space on my hard drive...
I was wondering if i also remove the songs from my itunes, it would erase the songs on my Ipod as well?
thanks in advance.

You can delete songs from your iTunes/computer hard drive after transferring them to the iPod, and for this you need to set your iPod to manage the songs manually.
However, this is an extremely risky option because when (and not if) there comes a time to restore your iPod, which is a very common fix for iPod problems, then all the music would be erased. If you no longer have the music in iTunes (or any other back up), then all that music would be lost.
What if the iPod were lost/stolen/needed repair? Again, the music would lost. I strongly recommend a back up, and if computer hard drive space is in short supply, you should seriously consider an external hard drive. They are not expensive, and the cost is well worth it when compared to the loss of all your precious music.
At the very least back up your music to either cd or dvd before deleting it, particularly any purchased music/videos, as this would have to be bought again if it were lost. See this.

How do i get my pictures off my cell phone i have a usb cable but not sure how to get them on my pc

please refer to the subject line for my question thank you

Without knowing which phone you have, they all essentially behave the same way when connected to the PC by USB. The phone will be recognized by windows as an external drive. If you get the autoplay windows simply click the drive icon to open it. You can then navigate to the folder with the photos and then just copy them over to the PC hard drive. For instructions more specific to your phone you may want to go to your phone provider's website.

The following error was submitted a while ago but not sure how to find out if a solution was found?

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8' Object required /include/SiteSecurity.asp
This is for Next Web Security. This is the only one that shows this error and I have a dozen bookmarks. I contacted the company and they don't have any issues at their end and my link is: http://www.nextwebsecurity.com/Contact.asp.
I tried using Opera browser and still get the same error.
Can this be fixed and why is it not working any more (stopped working in early Dec 2012) and I used it to do voluntary work for this website.

Can you see that page via Google Translate?

Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

Otherwise, you can also do this if you're using a PC:
1. Go to control panel where you can uninstall a program.
2. Click on iTunes from the list of programs. There should be a button on top of the page that says “Repair”. Just click it.
