Share mp3s from iphone-to-iphone via wifi?
i have an iphone 2g that recently crapped out; as in, all of a sudden it wont connect to my computer or wall outlets. it charges with a firewire wall charger, but nothing else. it wont even connect to a computer via firewire. so i got a 3g and id like to still use the 2g as a dedicated "ipod". can i do this? the only way to send anything to or from the 2g is with wifi, since it cant connect to a computer.
any ideas?
The first generation iPhone supports being charged via firewire, but syncing or transferring data via firewire is not supported. The same applies to the iPod after Apple switched to USB from syncing and charging via firewire.
Syncing or transferring iTunes content via wi-fi is not supported either.

Can I Share music from iPhone to wife's iPod we both have different Apple ids, and if I do share music will all my photos be shared too?
Depends on what the source of the music is (iTunes purchases, ripped CDs, etc.), and whether you are syncing to iTunes on a computer. As for simply sharing music directly from the iPhone to the iPod, no, you cannot.

Setting up IMac over Ethernet to use IPhone via WIFI
I have just stopped using a wireless router via Airport. I now use the Homeplug AV adapter system via Ethernet. I have internet no problem, but now have no network that will enable me to connect my IPhone via WIF to the internet through my IMac. Can someone please help?
Duane, not being a dumb taquito, I try not to post something of which I know nothing about. However, that still manages to occur occasionally! When the OP asked for help, I knew nothing about his issue. I had never shared an internet connection wirelessly. But in my mind I thought that this indeed should be possible with a Mac with an AirPort card. I experimented.
Not having an iPhone or an iPod Touch I used my iMac and my Mac mini. They are in rooms on opposite ends of my apartment. I set up a wireless airport network from my Mac mini to share its ethernet internet connection wirelessly with the iMac. I did it exactly as I shared with the OP. It took all of 3 minutes, start to finish. Then I walked to the other end of the apartment and connected the iMac to this wireless network and was surfing the internet from the Mac mini's ethernet connection in all of 30 seconds. It was a secure wireless connection.
I have now followed your instructions. They also worked flawlessly and because they were now familiar steps took barely two minutes to set up, walk, connect and surf. The results are identical!
However, if the OP only had your instructions to follow and did not encounter an AirPort service in Sys Prefs>Sharing, they would have been up the proverbial +cala de la mierda+, without a paddle.

Upload multiple files to iphone via wifi - completely freeze
Hi,
I upload files to iphone via wifi and air sharing app a lot. Just connect with finder and drag&drop files one at a time and everything is fine, but when you select more files and try to copy them to iphone together Leopard completely freeze. Totally. You cannot force quit finder, cannot run activity monitor, cannot kill finder in terminal or even restart the computer. Just shut down with holding the power button...
What's wrong? :/
(sorry for english;)when i had around 50 reports to move from local to server , best idea is to a ) place all your reports in C:\..\My Documents\PC_NW\..domain1..\..username..\AppInfo\..appsetname..\..application..\eExcel\Reports (local folder )
b) open BPC excel -> etools-> Save Dynamic templates -> reports
c) Select Local folder select all the files you want to copy ,and right click copy
d) Select Company folder paste files -
Itunes 12. I can not see my ipad / iphone via WiFi
Itunes 11 was upgraded to itunes 12 without a warning. Now, side bar is lost and IN ADDITION () I don´t see my ipad / iphone via wifi. How can I reset sichronization ?
How can I DOWNGRADE to itunes 11 ?SinluFrank wrote:
already tried all suggestions from the support page, except re-installing Itunes. any suggestions?
Yes. Reinstall iTunes. If that is the point at which you stopped trying the support suggestions then it makes sense to me, that you move on to the next suggestion and if reinstalling iTunes is the next suggestion, so be it.
However .... I too have issues that arise out of the blue with my iPad being recognized in iTunes and what I always do and it eventually works is to quit iTunes, restart my MacBook, and reboot my iPad.
Rebooting the iPad is the last thing that I do and only if I have no success with quitting iTunes and restarting the Mac. It may take a few tries to work, but if you are that dead set against reinstalling iTunes, then give it a try. -
It seems like an obvious oversight to not allow synching on the iphone via wifi. It would be so much more convenient for me that plugging in the cable all the time. I don't need to sync video or mp3 all the time so I don't think data transfer would be an issue. It would also mean fast synching wherever there was a wifi connection. I'm wondering if this is another 'mobile me gottcha'
Chrs
timIt wouldn't be slow if you just wanted to sync emails / contacts (the main application) - how could it be - that's how I access email all the time (through wifi). Also mobile me does it through mobile connections with email and contacts which is even slower than wifi most of the time.
I don't actually think audio files would take that long either - especially after a first sync - though i'm happy to do this with a cable
as for security, again, that's how i access email all the time anyway so i can't see that being a problem -

Slow start up of iTunes 10.6 on Windows 7 & Network issues connecting iPhone via WiFi
Ever since I updated to iTunes 10.6 and iOS 5.1 both my computer don't want to open iTunes quickly and my Phone doesn't get noticed on iTunes via WiFi on my network. When I go to start iTunes from the icon on my desktop it doesn't pop up on screen right away like it did on the version before 10.6 and on iOS 5.0.1 my phone would sync and connect on to iTunes to update apps just fine now all that has changed. Doesn't want to connect to update apps on my network via WiFi and I have tried a few different things to see if I could correct the issue but nothing has worked. I tried what another person posted to try and it did not work, I also uninstalled, rebooted computer and reinstalled iTunes but that did not work either. Nothing I have tried seems to work, it must be a Apple glitch in the software for Windows 7 to have iTunes 10.6 and iOS 5.1 not to work properly like it should as it once did without fail. Before on the versions before this everything worked just fine no issues. Apple get with the program and fix these issues we are having please. Thanks and hope they get it fixed and straightened out quick!!!
Well, here is the results of my Diagnostic Test of the phone when plugged into the computer. Maybe with this someone would be able to see something that might need looking into, if so please let me know. Thanks so much in advance. I have not tried going back to a older version of iTunes as I am just gonna wait and see if Apple can correct it, hopefully they can. It seems as if on update they left something out to make iTunes, and Syncing not working properly.

HT201210 how do i restore my iphone via wifi
i recently got a iphone 4s off a friend and my computer wont let me restore it to factory settings i want to know how you o it via wifi thank you
If you are an authorized member of Apple's developer program, you have forums and resources through which you can address issues with seed versions of Apple's software. There is however a clear warning on the download page that says that you cannot remove the beta and downgrade once installed. So you are probably out of luck at this point.

Share music from iphone 4 and iphone 5
I'd like to share music from my iphone 4 account to my daughter's iphone 5 account. We share the same computer and I pay for all the music.can i do that and if so how?
For purchased items: iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
For songs that you ripped from CD's, you'll need something like: http://thelittleappfactory.com/irip/
Or alternatively, if you still have access to the PC with the music on, then set up home sharing

TS1538 Problem connecting iPhone via wifi to iTunes
Since upgrading to iOS6 and the new iTunes software, I have trouble connecting my iPhone 4s to iTunes via wifi. I must shut down the iPhone and restart it to connect via wifi to iTunes. But this works only once, the process must be repeated each time. Does anyone else have this issue? Is there a resolution?
Try a different USB port or sync cable.
Close and restart iTunes on the PC.
