My iphone 4 is synced to my parents computer, can I change this to sync my iphone with my laptop?If so, how?
Plug it into your computer and sync.
Since iphone will sync with only one computer at a time, your content will be erased and replaced with coneetent from your computer, so make sure you copy everything from your parents computer to yours first.

I need to transfer iphone contacts to computer can i do this?
Phone has been encrypted with a password with a backup done months ago - cant rememeber password, need to transfer phone contacts as this phoen is dying and wont hold charge anymore.
HelpEverything should live on your computer. the iphone just allows your computers content to be portable. You should have been syncing them with your computer/cloud service from day one.
Have you failed to do this?

my ipad is syncing notes to an old phone with a different apple id how can I change it to sync to the new iphone icloud is off and so is home sharing
Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son. -
My iphone 3gs will not connect to itunes and it says that I need to do a system restore. It also says that I need to enter my password on the iphone to connect to itunes but I can not do this because the phone is in emergency phone call mode only.
Turn your phone off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.
Unfortunately, the data on your phone is already gone if you're seeing the connect to iTunes logo. -
I have 2 iphones that share the same apple ID I do not want them to share contacts and apps how can I change this?
You can use separate AppleIDs for iCloud, iMessage and iTunes - you just need to create unique AppleIDs for the iCloud accounts if syncing contacts that way (you will need an email address that is not already registered as an AppleID though to get another AppleID).
Apps are a different matter in that purchases are tied to the AppleID used to log in to the store to make the purchase. So you can create another AppleID for iTunes as well and use different ones on the different phones, but any apps you have already purchased with your existing AppleID are permanently tied to that AppleID.
Really, unless you are sharing apps, content and such, there is no reason to use the same AppleID on each anyway. So the simplest solution is to create new AppleID(s) for the second device. If you need an email address to do that, just get a gmail account (or hotmail, yahoo or any other free email account). -
My phone was synched up to someone else's computer how can I change this?
My phone was plugged into someone eles's mac book pro and now their apple id is on my phone. How can I change this without losing everything on my phone (photos, apps, music, etc.)?
Re-sync it with iTunes on your computer.
Any apps and other iTunes content transferred from the other computer will be erased first, which is not your iTunes content. -
Trying to erase settings from my old iphone but when I have to enter my itunes ID password the old email address is displayed. How can I change this to my existing itunes account so I can reset this phone? Thanks in advance.
I know it sounds weird, and that is the reason I posted my question. Because my case is not like all the ones I've found online and it's confusing. I added a screen capture of my itunes with my old iphone (the one that houses my playlists) connected to it.
My playlists "ARE" in my iphone 4s. They are still there even though they do not show up when I plug in to itunes in my computer.
When connecting my phone to itunes on my macbook, the playlists do not appear anywhere in itunes. I have found my connected iphone icon, I have clicked on the arrow next to it and it does pull up the standard lists that come with the iphone/itunes: Music, Movies, TV shows, books. That's it! below that is "Genius" and below "Geniuns" is "PLAYLISTS" but the only playlist of mine that shows there is one that I created several years back titled "90's music" and that one I created it on my computer, not my phone. Under "90's music" there are also other standard playlists that itunes automatically adds.
Does anyone else have this issue or know how to get around this. I am starting to think that I am going to have to recreate these lists on my computer -

Hi rachel.oberman98,
Is it possible that the dock icon is from an older version of iTunes? The these steps from this article -

Double-click your hard disk.
Double-click the Applications folder.
Double-click the iTunes icon.

I want to start my own account separate from my parents. Can I transfer my music from one account to another? If so, how?

Lisa,
Just get copies of the song files and add them to your iTunes library. With the exception of any DRM-protected files (purchased before mid-2009 and never upgraded) they will play fine, even though they are technically associated with the original account. -
My iPhone 4S appears to be using an old Apple ID. How can I change this to my current one?
My iPhone 4S appears to be using an old Apple ID and keeps asking for my sign in. How can I change this to my current ID -this applied to iCloud only.
Thanks for the response -
Unfortunately - I can not use my Old Apple ID at all - Apple/Itunes is not recognizing it at all. I thought about your last suggestion and the system is not accepting the old ID and password. I believe this is because the old id (email address) is associated to a service (Verizon) that I no long have. When I discontinued service with Verizon, their email address that I used as my Old apple ID become invalid.
I am sure this scenario happens frequently - hopefully Apple can find a better solution in the future.
Thanks,

3 iphones in household.All use same apple ID.But all contacts get mixed between phones and facetime calls come in from other contacts.How can we change this so our phone information isn't visible to each other?
Use separate Apple IDs for each family member and use Family Sharing features of those things (if any) that you do want to share. https://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/

My iPhone and iPad are on my moms icloud account and i just got a macbook air and i want all my devices on my own iCloud account - i went to all of my settings and it won't let me change my iCloud account on my phone and iPad. can i change this?
You will have to do more than simply changing settings in your moms account. To set up everything in your own account, go to Settings > iCloud > scroll down and press sign out. From this, check out this link for how to setup iCloud on all of your devices after making a new icloud account on your phone: https://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
Before you set that up, you will have to make a new iCould account which you can simply do after you sign out of your mom's account on your devices.
Hope I can help! -
