New to iPhone...Have a question that hopefully someone can answer...

Hello,
I am a fairly new iPhone user and I have a question. In order to purchase songs from iTunes and get them on my iPhone do I have to download iTunes directly onto my iPhone and do it all through my iPhone? The reason I ask this is because I purchased a few songs from iTunes on my home computer and when I synced my iPhone it said that those songs were not transferred because it is not allowed on more then one machine. Please help???

Larla,
Did the message mention some songs could not be transferred because they are not authorized to play on this computer? If so, you can authorize the computer if you haven't authorized five computers already. If you have already authorized 5 computers, you can deauthorize all, and then reauthorize up to 5 computers.
To authorize this computer go up to the Store menu in iTunes, and choose "Authorize Computer". You will be prompted to enter your iTunes Store account username and password. Once it says the computer has successfully been authorized, you can then sync your iPhone with those songs.
If you got a different error message, please reply with it.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

    Hello apple
    I have the problem with my iPhone and my friends have this problem too.
    My iPhone have the problem about calling and answer the call. When I use my iPhone to call I can't hear anything from my iPhone but the person that I call can answer it but when answer both of us can't hear anything and when I put my iPhone to my face the screen is still on and when I quit the phone application and open it again it will automatic call my recent call. And when my friends call me my iPhone didn't show anything even the missed call I'm only know that I missed the call from messages from carrier. Please check these problem I restored my iPhone for 4 time now in this week. I lived in Hatyai, Songkhla,Thailand and many people in my city have this problem.
    Who have this problem??

    Apple isnt here. this is a user based forum for technical questions. The solution is to restart, reset, and restore as new which is in the manual after that get it replaced for hard ware failure. if your within your one year warranty its replaced if it is out of the warranty then it is 199$

  • Have a crazy problem, hopefully someone can help!

    Hello all, this is my first post on these forums.  I have an interesting problem with my Blackberry Curve 8330, and should be a fun thing to troubleshoot.  About a month ago I dropped and broke my phone, paid $100 to Asurian (sprint insurance) and they sent me a new phone.  I used the Desktop Manager and copied over everything from old phone onto new phone they sent me.  Now here is where the crazy part comes in.  Whenver I'm at work, some of my keys dont work correctly.  It took me forever to pinpoint when it was happening, and for a while I thougth I was fixing it by removing battery and restarting.  But, here goes:  After I'm at work for about an hour, the trackball key when pushed types #*, the B key types 2 other letters, N types 2 other letters, M types 2 other letters, and Del key types 2 other letters.  I'm not at work right now so I dont know exaclty what those 2 keys are.  So anyways, I thought the phone they send me was wrong, and at that time I didnt realize it was happenign only at work and I thoguth i was fixing it temporarly by rebooting phone.  So they then sent me a replacement for that.  Copied everythign over onto new phone (2nd phone from Asurion).  And heres the crazy part,  while I'm at work, the same exact issue happens!  After I leave work, about 30 minutes later, the phone will resume normal functionality.  So, I thought maybe copying from the old phone to the new phone, maybe I had copied something bad and something got corrupted.  I completely wiped this phone, and sure enough, still does it while I'm at work.  I'm at a loss as to what to do here.  On both phones, while I'm at work when I press the trackball key to enter it types # *, and all the other disfucntional keys (b,n,m,del) t yped the exact same letters.  There is no water damage whatsoever, since for 14 hours a day the phone works just fine.  Then the 10 hours I'm at work those 5 keys don't work.  I'm not sure what to do here, since if Asurian sends me a 3rd phone I have a feeling it will do the same thing.  Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated!  I'm also interested if anyone has ever heard of something simliar to this before.
    Thanks in advance for any help,
    Ryan Zimmerman

    How strange that things should only go awry at your work. The fact that the same thing happens on two different Berries, even after you wiped and installed a fresh OS on the last one, and all in the same place, makes it seem that it has to be something in your work environment causing the problem, perhaps some kind of electromagnetic interference? That's the only thing I could guess.

  • Two questions I hope someone can answer?

    Question #1
    When using pages, I can no longer rotate the photos as I used to. Now the photos are either vertical or horizontal, but I cannot angle them. Help?
    Question #2
    My student families appreciate the photo emails I send along. Recently, some families (they are working on Macs too) receive the emails but with an x where the picture should be. Any idea what is going on?
    Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

    Thanks so much for answering the first question. Seems obvious now - you have saved my newsletter!
    The second question. I could save the photo as a pdf as an attachement but I am not sure I know how to do so for the cute mac mail I like to send ... with photos that I typically just drag in.
    I wonder why it has worked beautifully for six months (how long I have been a mac user) and suddenly, poof, it works for only some. I send many photo emails :-(
    Also, interesting that most who cannot view my photo emails are mac users using mac mail. Some can view it on their iphones, but not their macBooks, others vice versa. Weird.

    Hopefully someone can help.... I have an Iphone 5 and want to create a music video playlist on my phone so then i can play through my apple tv... but when i make a playlist in itunes and try to add it over to my iphone it wont let me sync the playlist...? I have already added the music videos to my iphone so that is not the problem.... i cant seem to figure out how to make a playlist for them... IE: to make the videos play consecutively in the order i want without stopping after each video and gong back to the list.... this is what i have had to resort to make it work....what i want to do....is be able to make a playlist of videos on my iphone 5....take my apple tv to friends houses and with wifi....set up apple tv and play videos at the party and not have to stand by with the remote and find a new video to play stopping the music between the songs/videos....very annoying....and have spent over 4 hours one day and an hour and a half today on the phone today with a sr. advisor with apple and they have no clue.... this seems sooooo simple.... please somebody that really knows how to do this....i will be indebted forever...............

    Ok, I made a fresh provider hosted application to test out Dragan's suggested solution.
    You can view the repository here:
    https://github.com/mattmazzola/providerhosted_01
    After comparing this new application and the old one, I realized I had a misunderstanding of how the SP.RequestExecutor expected urls to be constructed. I thought it was required to use the SP.AppContextSite() endpoint.
    I was incorrectly constructing a request to the appWeb with a url similar to the following:
    https://contoso-6f921c6addc19f.sharepoint.com/ProviderHostedApp/_api/SP.AppContextSite(@target)/contextinfo?@target=%27https%3A%2F%2Fcontoso-6f921c6addc19f.sharepoint.com%2FProviderHostedApp%27
    As you can see, the @target was set to the appWeb url but infact when making request to the appWeb using RequestExecutor you do no need to do this.  It is simply appweburl + "/_api/contextinfo".  It is only when making requests for
    resources existing on the hostWeb that you need use the AppContextSite and set the @target.
    I think the link to the solution I provided is more helpful, but I marked Dragan's reply as the answer to give him credit for helping me.

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

  • I have a question that I think I know the answer to, but am looking for confirmation.  I have a dell computer at home that has clip art available on it for putting pictures into documents.  Do I need to install an APP to get something similar to clip art?

    I have a question that I think I know the answer to, but am looking for confirmation.  I have a desktop computer at home that has clip art loaded onto it.  I recently got an iPad and am looking for something similar.  I assume I need to get an APP for it, and if that is correct, does anyone have one that they like?

    Sort of.  There is an app called art shop that gives you a place to park clip art.   But I don't think you really need it. 
    If you have a collection of clip art you want available, move it to the camera roll on your pad/ phone, then copy paste into your document the clip you want.
    You can get them into the camaera roll by putting them in a single event in your picture library and syncing them over,  or e mail them to your self, and save to the camera roll, or send them to drop box, and bring them down that way.
    The challenge is getting them all in one place to make it easy for you to find, which is why syncing might be the best approach in the long run.
    As near as I can tell there is not a ready made clip art collection in app format laying around.

  • I'm new at this but I am hoping someone can help me.I have recently been away for 5 weeks and my Tom Tom required updating.When I clicked to update it required a pc.As I didn't have access to a pc it wouldn't work is there any way to do this without a pc?

    Hi, I'm new at this but I am hoping someone can help me.I have recently been away for 5 weeks and my Tom Tom required updating.When I clicked to update it, it required a pc. As I didn't have access to a pc it wouldn't work is there any way to do this without a pc?  I was without this app for 3 weeks!  Thanks, Lea

    The process to update your Tom Tom is a big data file, you will need to be connected to a Wi-Fi network for it to download.  If will take about an hour.
