QUESTION: How to re-register setup billing/payment account without losing installed apps?

Unable to buy anything on my Touchpad app catalog. Error PMT03043 when trying to buy. How to clear existing catalog account and set it up again - hope this solves the problem ? There's no billing info set up in the existing account. App catalog does not allow to set up billing/payment info later if not done the first time.
Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

Try these steps to remove the billing acct.
Open App Catalog > application menu > Preferences & Accounts.
In Password Is Required, select one of the following:
Once every 4 hours:You must enter your password the first time you make a purchase. If you make any other purchases within 4 hours, you don’t need to enter your password again. After 4 hours, you must enter your password again for the first purchase, which starts a new 4-hour clock.
Every Purchase: You must enter your password for each purchase, regardless of the time interval.
Under Send Email, change the email address to which receipts are sent.
To modify or remove an account, tap the account name.
Enter your HP webOS Account password and tap Submit.
When the credit card information appears, do one of the following:
Tap the information you want to update, make the change, and then tap Submit.
Tap Remove Account and then confirm the deletion.
Once removed, setup the billing acct. again.

How can I transfer my iphone to a new computer without losing my apps

Hi,
so here's my story:
I share a computer with another family member (computer 1) and we each have our own iphones with different apple ID's on computer 1. I recently got a new computer though and downloaded itunes onto it (computer 2). I've already started adding music to computer 2 and now I want to move my iphone to computer 2. How can I do that so that I do not lose all my apps? I guess it would be okay to lose the pictures and music because I already have a way to recover those. But I wouldn't mind if anyone has a way to salvage everything. Also, it should be noted that I do not prefer to keep computer 1's library.
Second question: If I were to copy computer 1's library to computer 2, would I be able to keep the existing music from computer 2, or would it just replace the whole library with the copy of computer 1's?
Third question: Computer 2 claims that there is now a backup of my iphone on it, but still won't let me sync the phone. If I were to go ahead and say, "yes, sync the phone and erase the content," would computer 2 allow me to restore the phone or not? (because it's still synced to computer 1)
Thanks in advance everyone!
Sincerely, the dark night

How do I move printers to a different ePrintCenter account without losing my ePrint address?

You may find that you have a lot of printers on an ePrintCenter account and want to divide them across multiple accounts, but they are already setup on one account and want to keep the ePrint address.
There are some other scenarios where a printer may need to be moved from one account to another, but it does not seem it is well known.
This is from the Help section of www.eprintcenter.com.
Move a printer from one ePrintCenter account to another
Removing a printer from one ePrintCenter account allows you to add it to a different ePrintCenter account. To move a printer from one ePrintCenter account to another:
Click on the “X” on the printer's tab on your ePrintCenter account to remove the printer from that account. Note: Your printer's Print Apps and ePrint features will continue to work after it is removed from your account.
Using the Web Services option on printer front panel menu, reprint the Web Services Information Sheet with the printer code on it.
Log into the desired ePrintCenter account and add the printer as you normally would. If you don't know your printer ID or email address, use the Web Services menu to retrieve it from the printer.
Note: You will not be able to use ePrintCenter to configure your print apps or manage ePrint settings unless your printer is added to an ePrintCenter account.

How can I switch to syncing to another itunes library without losing my app data?

I have a new imac and I built a new itunes library on that machine - I wanted a clean library. It's big. I want sync my iphone 5 to this new library but it's synced to my mbp13. I don't mind reloading my music, but I don't want to lose my app data.
Is there any way to backup my iphone (current its backed up to icloud) but then do a restore and use it with a different itunes library? It will be under the same itunes store account and itunes match account, etc.
The main goal is to not lose my app data or apps. I have no prob copying my music over, its the same on both computers.

Doh! I figured it out. I had to turn on "sync music" from the music tab and selected no music to sync - so it wiped all my music on the iphone - which was fine. Then I could enable manually manage music and presto - now I am able to copy my music over to the iphone from my new imac.

How do I upgrade from iOS 4 to new iOS without losing my app data

Hi, I am still on iOS 4, and I understand that I need to erase my iPad before upgrading. But I don't want to lose the game data stored locally, particularly the candy crush. :) is there a way to preserve those data while upgrading?

I agree with Meg.
If you drill down in that HT4972 article you provided, you will eventually wind up on the http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946 article which says in part (under iTunes will back up the following information):
App Store Application data including in-app purchases (except the Application itself, its tmp and Caches folder).
You should be fine.
UPDATE - Here are drill down details from HT4972:
Go to
If you are attempting to update using a Mac or PC with which you normally sync
Go to Back up your device by syncing it with your Mac or PC first
Go to iOS device backups preserve your settings, the Camera Roll (or Saved Pictures), and other important data. Learn more about what is stored in a backup.

A friend let me use her old ipad that was still synced to her account. I want to sync it to my account without losing the app progress, notes, and pictures. How do I do this and keep everything on the ipad?

I want to sync an ipad to my iTunes account that used to be synced to another account without losing the data (i.e.- pictures, notes, app progress). Is this possible or will I lose everything once I sync it to my account?

You can't. iDevices are one user devices.

What is the best system? We have 30 iPads.

That would be fine.

How do I start or setup a Wi-Fi account on my iPodtouch ver5.0 ?

How do I start or setup a wi-fi account on my ipod_touch ios_5?

There is no such thing as a "Wi-Fi account." You have to buy and set up a Wi-Fi router if you want to connect to the Internet at home, unless you have access to some else's network and password.

How do I sync my new ipad mini with my old ipad 2, without losing any apps or data in notes? I need step by step instructions for first-time sync with ipad mini. Thanks.

How do I sync my new ipad mini with my old ipad 2, without losing any apps or data in notes? I need step by step instructions for first-time sync with ipad mini. Thanks.

If you synced it many times, you have to have a backup. It's just a question of how old that backup is now. When did you last sync?
First of all launch iTunes on your computer and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. Do you see any backups for you iPad in that window? If so, how new is the newest backup? That will be the backup that you will want to use. But remember that if you use that backup and it is one month old, you can only restore from that date back in time. Anything that you did on the iPad in the past month will not be in that backup.
Turn on the new iPad Minin and start activating OTA via WiFi. You will get to a certain point in the process where you will be given the choice to Set up as new, Restore from iCloud - or Restore from iTunes. You will want to select Restore from iTunes.
That is the short and sweet version. There are step by step instructions in this article. This applies to the mini as well as the iPad 4 or the iPad 3 for that matter.

Question: I have a computer at home and one at work. Can I update my iPod music collection from more than one computer?
Answer: Yes. When you first connect iPod to your computer, iPod recognizes that computer as its "home" computer. Each time you connect, iPod automatically downloads the music library stored on it. When you connect iPod to a different computer, iTunes will inform you that iPod is linked to a different iTunes library and will ask whether you wish to erase iPod's contents and sync with the new computer's library. If you will be connecting to multiple computers frequently, configure your iPod to manually manage music. This will allow you to selectively drag songs, albums, or playlists from the second computer to your iPod without compromising the existing music.
Synchronization generally occurs only in one direction, from your computer to your iPod. This means you typically cannot transfer music, automatically or manually, from your iPod to a computer, and you cannot use iPod to copy a music library from one computer to another. An exception to this is the transfer purchases feature which allows you to restore purchased iTunes content to your computer from your iPod. Additionally, if you legally are allowed to copy music or other media files, you can configure your iPod as a storage drive to move media files.

If the answer to the above question is "yes", FIRST, set up a backup of your new computer before you do anything else so the next time your computer breaks you will not be in the same situation. Backup solutions are numerous and inexpensive, and there is absolutely no excuse in the Third Millennium not to have one.

How can I enable synch without losing my apps?

Hello,
I read the forums and I cannot find a solution to my unique situation.
I have a 2nd gen iPod Touch and synced apps and music with iTunes and everything was mostly great. The only problem was the slowness of iTunes so I started using MediaMonkey instead to transfer music. I also downloaded apps exclusively through wifi, so I never bothered to sync my iPod with iTunes for months. Then I upgraded the harddrive, did a clean install of Windows, and sold my old harddrive. It was not possible to sync my iPod anymore and I didn't care because MediaMonkey/Wifi worked perfectly for my needs ...
Until I installed firmware 3.1! Now MediaMonkey crashes and I can't add/remove songs from my iPod. So I was going to wipe my iPod and give the new version of iTunes another try, but now I am worried about losing all the apps I've downloaded over wifi. I've logged into iTunes and I cannot find a record of apps that I have downloaded/purchased. *Which brings me to my question: How can I enable synch without losing my apps?* I'm particularly worried about the apps that were free when I got them but they now cost money.
Thank you for your time,
bougatsa

The "File -> Transfer Purchases" option didnt work at first, but then I clicked around and managed to get this new computer image added to the new Home Sharing feature. Now all my iPod apps have been transferred to my local iTunes apps folder, thank you Julian!
And Anna, thank you (tack?), I believe you that it works but now that I have my apps locally I won't try I'm sure you'll understand.
I had bad thoughts of ditching my iPod for something else but I won't now! This forum rocks! Thank you all again
