Recently I updated my iTunes account, but there was an error during installation. Now I cannot open iTunes as an error message appears. If I delete iTunes from my laptop then reinstall, will I still have access to all my music etc?

The reason why I ask, is because I have another laptop which I then installed iTunes on (this was to overcome the issue of the error message and reduce the risk of losing my music etc. on my first laptop). I cannot see any of my music on the second laptop, even when I attach my iPod. I authorised the second laptop to link but as I cannot open iTunes on my first laptop, I cannot access my music. I'm assuming iTunes accounts are only stored on individual laptops/PCs and cannot be accessed remotely?? Or am I doing something wrong? I'm not sure what I can do.

Your iTunes library, media, playlists, and iOS device backups are safe. Please visitTroubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for details. The steps in the second box should get iTunes back on track.
I don't make any use of the homesharing feature so I can't really comment on it, but if you want to change which computer you use to manage your devices see this migrate iTunes library post.

After formatting my HD and eventually restore my system from a backup on Time Capsule, will I still have access to my old backups as normally used to do via Time Machine?

I have a Time Capsule (4th Gen) and my backups on it, I need to completely erase my hard drive. My question is: after formatting my MacBook HD and eventually restore my system (OS X 10.6.8) from a backup on Time Capsule, will I still have access to my old* backups as normally used to do via Time Machine?
*(-and to the newer backups- if I had not restored my system from the last backup).
THANKS

That's a good question. Technically, Time Machine should make a new backup but not erase any old backups. But if there isn't sufficient space on the backup drive, then I'm not sure if Time Machine will simply warn you or just go ahead and remove old backups to make room for the new ones.
In any case, the new backup should have a different backup folder on the backup drive. That's my understanding. You can learn more at pondini.org.

I plugged my iPod touch (4th generation) into my computer and when iTunes popped up, there was a notice that read "The iPod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". What does this mean and what do I do?

Type "Apple Mobile Device Service" into the search bar at the top of the page by Support and read the help article.

Pages crashes when opening any document on iPad 3 Latest version. I tried everything I could find on the net and finally deleted Pages from my device and reinstalled it. Still when I try to create a new document or open a document it just crashes out.

Try this:
Make sure IOS is updated to latest version
Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings

OK, that is almost the latest version... .65 is later.
You can upgrade your AppWorld from using your BlackBerry browser to go to www.blackberry.com/appworld
After you upgrade, Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
IF then you don't see or can't find the AppWorld icon, please post back here.

Can anyone help me? I recently bought a secondhand PowerBook G4 but there was no installation discs, where can I obtain a set as I am unable to install any software. Many thanks.

I recently bought a secondhand PowerBook G4 but there were no installation discs with it and at present I am unable to install any software, where is it possible to obtain a set of the discs so that I can reinstall the software to try and resolve this problem.
Many thanks.

You may also want to try eBay. Finding disks for a machine that old will be difficult though.
Best of luck.

Will I still have access to the programs that I have purchased in the US if I switch my AppleTV to say it is in the UK?

I have an AppleTV that is set up so that I can use it in the US and purchase US content. What happens if I switch it to say that I am in the UK so that I can purchase shows from the BBC (not "BBC America" but the real BBC)? Will I no longer have access to my collection of movies that I have purchased in the US?
Is there some kind of surcharge if I purchase UK content (which is priced in UK £) with a credit card from the US?
What happens if I have two iTunes accounts where one is an account that I started in the UK and the other started in the US? Can they both be on the same AppleTV?
Thank you

Thank you! I assume that the BBC doesn't want Americans to have access to some content (for example, Season 3 of Downton Abbey which my wife wants to see). There may be some legal/contractual barrier that prevents this. But I wasn't certain whether AppleTV actually prevents this.

My husband and I both use the same Apple ID, but we can't use his number for iMessaging or FaceTime on his iPad and still have access to all our other music and apps... How can I add his number to be used?

I want to use my husband's contact number on his iPad so that we can iMessage and especially FaceTime, but we share the same Apple ID. This works fine on our phones, why can't we have the option to use his contact number on his iPad the same way? This iPad can only be used with WiFi (contrary to what we were told upon purchasing it...). Anyone have any helpful advice??

This is not an area where I have any expertise, but you may want to consider using separate Apple IDs and using the recently released Family Sharing capabilities which still allow you to share your music and apps.

HELP! problem after update OS & email accounts msg 'there was an unexpected error and the operation was cancelled'

Hello I hope someone can help as i am very upset my BB10 is not functioning.
I have had this handset 3 months & love it!
I updated the OS and now on 10.1.0.4181... I had to do a memory swipe as handset working fine until update then it would not make or receive calls hence the swipe also cleaned up emails etc.
Now when I come to add the email accounts which it allows but no emails are received.. I keep getting this
message 'there was an unexpected error and the operation was cancelled.'
I used to have 2 x virgin media email addresses, 1 x hotmail.co.uk & 1 x [email protected] email address linked to Z10
handset and worked perfect..
What has happened to my phone.. I so need it to operate as before as I use it for work (self employed)
On the settings the virgin emails will sometimes say not connected.
I can use the internet & apps ok & text.. but I love the hub and that is not working like it did...
Can someone please help & advise before I send it to a watery grave...Thanks

Thanks for the reply
Can I get you to manually add the live.co.uk email account by changing the incoming mail server to one of these servers: blu-m.hotmail.com, dub-m.hotmail.com, stn-m.hotmail.com, bay-m.hotmail.com, col-m.hotmail.com or snt-m.hotmail.com.
Then try to add it, let me know if the issue persists.
Cheers.

I have an old Ibook G4, will I still have access to my email after the August 31.

I have an old IBook G4, purchased in 2006, I just want to know if I can still use email for me.com after August 31,2012

The machine has nothing to do with the email account.
If this was originally created as a mobileme accounts, and as long as you have migrated that mobileme account over to iCloud, then your email will continue as it was (on any machine or device).
You can set up iCloud IMAP email on any email client with these settings - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864

HT4847 If my iCloud storage is almost full will The items I purchase still be stored in iCloud and will I still have access to these items?

If my iCloud storage is almost full will my purchases still be available there and be accessible?

Purchases made do not count towards your storage limit. They are always available.

Where is the "None" option to remove my credit card?

Be sure you read the instructions very carefully.
