My Wife got an iPhone at work. IT set it up the first time on another machine, they finally install iTunes on her machine but I don't know if she can sync without loosing Photos, SMS, and other things. She had six months of stuff on that phone?
My Wife got an iPhone at work. IT set it up the first time on another machine, they finally install iTunes on her machine but I don't know if she can sync without loosing Photos, SMS, and other things. She had six months of stuff on that phone?
The problem is she can't update to new software until she connect to iTunes, but she don't want to loose all that info.
My question is:
If she register her apple ID on that new computer, and sync the phone, will she loose everything? or iTunes will back up first (because apple id match) and then sync.
Otherwise, how can I do it? The closest apple store is 3 hours away. thanks!
Before you connect to a new PC, make sure that autosync is disabled in Edit/Preferences/Devices, otherwise her phone will be wiped during the following sync.
If she has data on the phone she wants to save, back up manually:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to her new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your phone without syncing. Transfer the purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the phone for the first time.

I have a school ipad with iCloud using a different ID (my school email address) . I am leaving and want to buy my own ipad and transfer all my data and docs to my personal iCloud account but don't know how to do this without deleting all data and photos?
Heya Katie!!
So, the article you have there, HT4895, is pretty good. Just look at the FAQ section of it.
But basically, you will want to create a backup on your computer through iTunes...Just plug your current iPad into it and make sure your iPad and iTunes are logged in with the same Apple ID. At that point, just create a backup.
When you get your new iPad, and before you plug it in or set it up, follow the directions in this link to change your Apple ID. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621?viewlocale=en_US
Once you have that done, plug your new iPad into your computer to sync up with iTunes. Follow the directions for Restore from Backup and it should bring all that info back to your new iPad.
And changing your Apple ID email info will allow you to have your own!!! This should solve all your issues and GL!!! -

No separate server app on the laptop, it's all samba
The files are on a windows laptop and a hard drive hooked up to the windows laptop. The windows share server is pants, so I'd need some sort of third party server running. Maybe you weren't suggesting to use Samba to connect to the windows share though?
I'm glad that you've all understood my ramblings and taken and interest, thanks The way I see it, I can't be the only netbook user these days looking for this kind of convenience, and I certainly won't be once chrome and moblin hit the market.

I'm trying to update my IPAD 2 to iOS 7.1.2 but don't have enough memory to do so. In I-Tunes I'm told to change my media sync options to gain more memory, but I don't know how. Can you help?
Turn off the check mark to sync your music and also the check mark for the video. Sync the device. This will remove the items from you iPad but still keep them on your computer. Install IOS 7.1.2. Then turn on the check marks for your music and videos and resync the device.

How can I change the appe ID that is registred in my Ipad? It was bought for a friend and he put his own ID. I have my ID but I don' t know how I can install it in my Ipad
Tap on the id in Settings > Store and log out of it and then log in with your id. But if there is any content on the iPad from his account then you are probably better off resetting back to factory defaults via Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings and starting 'as new' with it - content is tied to the id that bought/downloaded it so your account won't be able to download updates to any of his apps, and unless his account is authorised on your computer's iTunes and his content is on there then it will be deleted when you sync to it.

I cannot figure out how to change the photo size on my iPhone 5s. The first time I took a pic it asked if I wanted smalll, medium or large and listed the pixels. I chose small but am now finding that is too small. Can anyone help me set it to medium now? I can't find any setting for that. I'm a newby to iPhones and have no idea what I'm doing. Thanks for any help you can offer.
By "sending" do you mean sending email?
If so, what app are you using to take the photos on your iPhone 5? Or are the photos from a different source (saved to your Camera Roll from somewhere else, like a web page or Messages)?
My guess is that Mail gives you the option to send different file sizes when it detects you are trying to Mail a really large photo file. The size of photos on the iPhone 5 is really big and some email providers may stop your mail from being delivered if attachments are too large. Thus, Mail tries to help you by offering to resize the photo.
I suspect that if you are sending smaller files, Mail does not bother giving you options to save a smaller version. In fact, I have seen this behavior. So, if the photo is already "small enough", it gets sent as-is.
To my knowledge, there is no global iOS setting for this. Some apps may have different rules, of course. -
When initiating back-up of my 3GS to icloud for the first time, I repeatedly receive an error message reading:
"iCloud backup failed
There was a problem enabling iCloud backup"
I cannot find a solution to this problem amd no amount of checking and rechecking account settings etc. has made any difference. Does anyone have experience of how to overcome this issue. The iCloud back-up initiated on my iPad without any problem so I do not think the problem is account related.
Thanks.Same problem here...
I just upgraded my 3GS to iOS5 and signed into iCloud using my Apple ID...
Every time I click "Back Up Now" in the iCloud preferences on the iPhone, I get "There was a problem completing the backup. Please try again later."
On my wife's iPhone 4, I just performed a back up and there were no errors. I tried this also on my wife's iPad 2 and it worked perfectly.
I have tried the following:
1. In iTunes, when my phone is connected, I selected "Back up to iCloud" on the summary tab
2. Reset my phone using the steps in the above post
3. Deleted the iCloud account on my iPhone and logged in again
4. Tried to backup from 3 different wireless networks
None of the steps above fixed the issue which has been going on all day for me...
Any other help would be great - thanks! -

I connected my new iPhone 5 to my (now fully updated after two separate operating system upgrades!) MacBook Pro so that I could add my music to my new phone. Rather than configuring it as a new iPhone, I chose to configure it as my old iPhone, thinking that this would make it easier for my music to be there. WRONG. Now my new iPhone 5 looks exactly like my old iPhone 4 did in OCTOBER, 2012 - photos, messages, contacts... anything done since then is gone (that was the last time I had backed up my old phone, which unfortunately was not connected to the cloud and is also lost somewhere in a New England lake :-(). What I could really, really use help with is finding out if I can have a do-over on my choice and at least get my new phone looking/acting like the new phone it is, and bonus would be to have the photos and videos I took with it this past weekend (it's only five days old!) restored. Please help!
Look iTunes>Preferences>Devices...is a backup listed for your iPhone 5 dated BEFORE you restored your iPhone 4 backup to your iPhone 5? If not, your data is gone. If there is a backup, on your iPhone 5: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. You should now be able to restore that backup, if it exists, to your iPhone 5.

If I buy a new ipad, can I restore my old apps and other thing on from my old ipad, to my new one ?
Hi,
I plan to sell my ipad 2 and I was wondering do my apps and films ect... Get stored on my iTunes ? So when I buy a new ipad I can use the same i tunes and upload them back on the new ipad.
Thanks.If they are not already in your computer's iTunes library then you can copy your iTunes purchases from your iPad via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.
As long as they remain available in the store then apps can also be re-downloaded via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes - depending upon what country that you are in, and whether they remain in the store, you may also be able to re-download music, films and tv shows via that link.
You can also backup your current iPad and in the future restore that backup onto a new iPad : backups and restores. Note that the backup doesn't contain your apps or media (films, music etc), it just contains the content of your apps e.g. game progress, documents etc, so you should still do the Transfer Purchases -
I got a new PC. I have an iTunes account on my iPod as well but I set it up properly on here as well this is a Pavilion HP G6 it has windows 8. I dowloaded iTunes onit, it works fine. I bought "We're the Millers" today on iTunes and it gets me upset I can't watch it. Every time I play it it glitches. After the first sevral glitches the voice loses the picture; the character on the screen isn't saying the right words at the right time. I waited till it was fully down loaded and I restarted my labtop twice to see if the was the cause. It was not and and I getting up set I paid $13 for a HD movie that isn't even a movie; someone please help!
"Bought a movie from iTunes which as gone into my videos file and I am trying to watch it on my computer. "
But you can't? Does it show up in iTunes?
"have iTunes on my pc but even after transferring files and syncing the video still won't show on the pc"
Transferring from/to where?
How are you transferring? -
So, I installed itunes on windows xp, but system locks up when I try to sync ipod classic
I recently installed Itunes on a computer with windows xp. At first it recognized my Iphone 4s and Ipod classic 160 g. Went through the standard procedure for registering both products and everything seemed fine. Then I started importing my cd collection with the intention of syncing them to my ipod classic.
I should mention that my previous computer crashed with my original Itunes account(that went with my ipod classic). I didn't know how to recover it so I just started over. When I tried to sync it with my cd collection everything locked up. Itunes and my computer froze up to the point where i had to do a "hard shut off". Although, it still accepts my iphone with no problem. How do I sync both on the same itunes account?The problem is likely iTunes 10.5, which has loads of sync problems with the iPod Classic. If you look on this forum, you'll see lots of users like you with similar problems. Normally, I'd advise you to read this summary post of mine and consider downgrading to 10.4. But you want to sync both an iPhone and your classic, and you need 10.5.x if you want to use the iCloud features. So I'm not sure what to advise, other than to use the correct USB ports and possibly to disable realtime virus scanning during your sync efforts.

Page with PartialTriggers is not working when it loads for the first time
Hi All,
I am experiencing unexpected behavior when using partial triggers and this recurres every time the page loads and the second time it works fine.
Here is the requirement, The page has a check box, when checked, two text boxes should be disabled. When unchecked the two fields should be enabled.
(The fields are Start Date Time and End Date Time in the code below). I am also handiling the Date Validations on value change listener of Start Date time and have no issues on that.
When I try to enter the dates on page load (The check box - "Process Full Indicator" is not selected), I enter the required fields (PEID, Dates and check the Process IAF and Process SMS check boxes and click on the ProcessRFI Button, the date fields are emptied and nothing happens. When i redo the same thing the second time, it works.
The button invokes a BEPL process.
One of the links suggested that I use the partialTrigger tag in the parent layout, I used in the panelFormLayout and it sill did not reflect.
I am facing the same issue in an other page that is reteriving data from a DB Table. As I notice, both the pages are invoking dataControlls. Not too sure if it is related.
Kindly help.

Really need some help here. We got the guys at PC World to back up our old computer onto and external hard drive, but our libraries merged. I've tried retrieving the whole thing from the external hard drive but can't seem to identify any files to retrieve. If I could copy the whole thing into my area, we could both just erase the things from each others' libraries that we didn't want. We are imac virgins, and need some advice!
if it's content purchased from the iTunes store we're talking about, the following script will help to tell the files apart:
Track Down Purchases
This script will examine each track in a selection of tracks or a selected playlist to determine if it was purchased from the iTunes Store and then copies it to a discrete playlist named for the person who purchased it, eg: "Steve Ballmer's Purchased Music". Recognizes song, video, and audiobook purchases. Purchaser information is gleaned by examining the track's file, which, depending on file location and access speed, can take as long a second per track.
for content you added manually (i.e. CD rips), i don't know of any easy way once the libraries were merged.
