    I have none contacts on my older mbp, though on my new iphone.
    what happens really on syncing? will my contacts on my iphone been lost?

    From your initial post:

    From your second post:
    there are three entries in my address book, we are speaking about address book on mbp
    Which is it? Do you have entries in Address Book on your Mac or not? If you already have entries, when you do sync you will get a merge or replace prompt. Select Merge.
    Which is it?
    I have not used address book really, therefore; so the latter info -from today- is right.
    I will try iSync, or would you check another application in this „special case“ of unexperienced users?
    I have no idea what you are talking about here. Contact syncing is selected in iTunes.
    › Before syncing with a supported contact application on your computer, …
    My failure again, I thaught, for this special case to use another app;
    now you and everyone know that I have my first iphone since hours.

  • I received this error msg when I wants to sync my 3gs iphone. Please help. "This Iphone cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes."

    I received this errir msg when I wants to sync my 3gs iPhone. And I already update my iTunes to 64-bit. "This iPhone cannot be used because the required software is not installed.Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version itunes".

    First make sue you are installing the 64 bit version of iTunes.
    Second make sure it is iTunes 10.7 or later.
    I would download a fresh copy of the 64 bit version of iTunes 11. After installation reboot your computer.
    Before connecting your phone reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • Please help - Brand new X1 Carbon defective out of the box - is this normal? what should I do next?

    Hello all,
    So, as a loyal Lenovo customer I decided to purchase the X1 Carbon 2nd Gen (non-touch, I5 version).
    Last week I finally received it.
    Unfortunately, the first thing I noticed was a defective touchpad - very loose, the right bottom corner was not solid
    enough and made a weird noise while clicking it. It drove me crazy since I am used to the top build quality the Thinkpad series offers.
    I took to the local Lenovo service center, they actually replaced it on the spot and it made it better, not great but better. I still think there is something wrong there, since the bottom two "buttons" don't feet and sound as good as the upper ones.
    But that I can tolarate.
    The thing that really pissed me off was this: To me demise, after using the laptop in a dark room I noticed this massive screen bleed :
    (apologize for the ling stream of pics, didn't know how to thumbnail them)
    My question to you guys, is this okay? is this an acceptable bleed? or should I do whatever it takes to get it repaired/replaced?
    I just hope they will know how to handle this here at local center, as from my experience dealing with computer reps here, the local Lenovo agent (which is actually the importer)  will not replace it for me (their excuse is that it wasn't bought in this country)
    This is amazing, in one year Lenovo has lost it's entire reputation over the 2nd Gen X1 carbon.
    Please help me. what should I do?
    Thank you very much.

  • Please help! ipad/iphone to itunes syncing problems

    For the past few days I've been having problems getting my ipad to take the new update.   Everytime I would tell it to update it would either freeze shortly into the backup or it would tell me that "itunes could not back up the ipad " " because the ipad backup could not be saved to the computer".  Anyways, I finally thought I fixed this by following the steps of deleting the backup, etc.  After I did that, it started giving me an error message of "itunes could not back up the ipad " " because a session could not be started with the ipad".  I've looked at other error messages associated with this, and they seemed to point at a direct ipad-itunes problem, but whenever I tryed to sync up my iphone, it gave me the same message.  It also is not connecting to the itunes store (will only say itunes store on a white background), but will download updates and things. I've taken down all potential firewalls, and I'm just plain stuck and confused right now.
    Please someone help me... I feel like I'm losing my mind being unable to figure this out!

  • Please Help: Brand new to Logic and Mac at the same time

    Dear Board,
    I joined the Mac family yesterday and have done pretty well with getting Logic and Cubase 4 installed on the Mac. (It's like trying to learn Spanish when you're from Alabama)
    However, when I assign an instrument track to ESX sampler, no libraries or presets come up. I can hear one sound, but when I pull down the menu to load another sound, there are no other sounds to be found. Do I have them stored in the wrong place or did they not automatically load when I installed Logic?
    Specifically, I am looking for a decent acoustic piano sound, but can't make it work.
    I migrated from Logic 5 on PC to this setup yesterday, so it's all new to me. Any help you can give will be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    B3
    Mac Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   Logic 7.2

    Well a fellow Las Vegan, that is something I
    havent seen since I have been on this forum.
    Anyway welcome and good choice to go with
    Logic Pro 7. This app is a constant challenge.
    First I have to ask an obvious question, did you
    install the contents disc? That is the one with all
    the samples on it. Since you have been using a
    different version, I assume you know how the
    EXS works so that should not be the issue.
    If you click on the black area no menus come up?
    Or do empty menus come up? We will get it going,
    this sounds like misplaced files. Phil

    very frustrated iphone user !!

    Changing devices is no reason to create a new Apple ID.
    All content purchased from iTunes is permanently linked to the Apple ID it was purchased with.
    To update apps purchased with the old ID, you MUST sign in with that Apple ID.

    i got my new iphone 4s , can not download the OS 5 it says error 9006 on my windows 7. also the phone does not show the capacity and serial number details on the itunes summery ?? please help

    Hi Kevin,
    The iPhone 4S comes automatically loaded with iOS 5, and any updates after iOS 5.0 can be completed directly from on the phone in Settings > General > Software Update. If you are having trouble using iTunes to update software, I suggest you reset iTunes so that you can pair your phone to the computer again, because if you can't see the serial number and capacity, that generally means your phone isn't paired.  For any problems this doesn't fix, please contact Apple directly through their automated help line, 1(800)MYAPPLE.

    If you can't restore from your backup you could try 3rd party software such as iPhone Backup Extractor to see if you could extract your notes from the backup.

  • Can anyone help with associate my new iPhone with iTunes? My other old devices are there, but I see only how to delete one, not how to add one.  Thank you.

    Can anyone help with associate my new iPhone with iTunes? My other old devices are there, but I see only how to delete one, not how to add one.  Thank you.

    iTunes Match is a subscription system that allows you to upload your own music (e.g. coped from CDs) to the cloud so that it shows (in the cloud) on your devices and computers without having to sync/copy it.
    Automatic downloads allows to, for example, buy an app on your computer's iTunes and have it automatically download on your phone without having to connect and sync it or go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your download and download it yourself - but doing that, going to the Purchased tab and redownloading an app, should get it associated.
    But no, I'm not aware of any problems that not having it associated causes.

    Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements

    Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
    If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
    MB427Z/A  Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
    MB576Z/A  Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
    MB021Z/A  Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)

  • Please help!  My iphone was stolen so did restore on new phone and LOST!

    Hello fellow iphone users! Please help me. I was on vacation, my iphone was stolen. So decided to buy a new iphone wile on vacation. Couldn't sync/restore my info till i got back home to my computer. So while I was still on vacation I continued to use the new phone and take pictures and videos. So when I got home and restored from a previous back up, it erased ALL MY newest/latest video and pics that I had just taken. Does anyone know if there is a way for me to get those new pics/videos back? They were of great value to me and would be an awful way to end my vacation after my phone got stolen. Thank you all in advance for any guidance you can provide.

    When there are photos/videos in your iPhone's Camera Roll, your iPhone is also detected as a digital camera when connected to your computer. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
    When you chose to transfer the backup for your iPhone that was stolen to your new iPhone, all data on your new iPhone that is included with the backup (which includes photos/videos in the Camera Roll) was replaced by the backup for your iPhone that was stolen. It doesn't merge this data on a new iPhone, it replaces it. Transferring the backup of an existing or former iPhone to a new iPhone is designed to be done as the first step after getting a new iPhone. If not and the iPhone is used for a period of time before doing so, photos/videos in the Camera Roll should be imported by your computer as the first step as with any other digital camera before transferring a backup for a previous iPhone to the new iPhone.
    The photos/videos that were in the Camera Roll on your new iPhone are now gone.
