Skype is messed up with new computer

I recently got a new computer - a lenovo. It had skype pre packaged, I think. When I opened it up, it had this insane new-looking version of skype in it. It looked so bad to me. I could barely use it, and I couldn't even go see my old conversation from before I downloaded me. I really don't like this version.
I've wanted to try to download an older version. Is that allowed? how can i do that?

let me post my other image.
this is the skype that I have:
I want the other kind

Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iPod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Do this:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your iPod without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPod for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in iTunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

Need help re-synching iPods with new computer and getting iTunes to...

Need help re-synching iPods with new computer and getting iTunes to recognize our iPods (it doesn't even recognize them when they're plugged in).
Hubby wiped my harddrive for me, so now I need to get everything back in proper places. I'm using windows XP and installed iTunes once again (I believe it's version 8). I also installed all of my iTunes songs. Now I need to know where to go from here. We have 3 iPods and I need to get them all synched once again. I know how to create different libraries for each of us, but I can't figure out how to get our songs back into our iTunes libraries. When I open iTunes and plug in an iPod, iTunes doesn't even show that an iPod is plugged in.
What do I do now to get each of our iPods synched with our own libraries?
TIA
Brandy

Thanks Zevoneer. The "Restart ipod service" worked and itunes is now recognizing my ipod! Hooray!
Okay, now how do I synch all of our ipods with our individual libraries (I don't want all of my kids' songs and vice versa)? We each have hundreds of songs on our ipods that we don't want to lose.
Thanks again!

Our old computer crashed which had all the kids ipod touch library on it. Now when I connect ipods to new computer it says I have to erase all the app, etc to sync with new computer. Is there anyway to sync to the new computer w/out losing all data?

Our old computer crashed which had all the kids ipod touch library on it. Now when I try to connect them to new computer it says I need to erase all data, apps, etc. to sync with new computer. It is saying that it can only be connected to one library at a time. Is their anyway around this without having ot erase all their stuff?

- Transfer iTunes purchases to the new computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like on of those discussed here:
newer copy
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup.
Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.

Cannot sync ipad Air with new computer running windows 8

With new computer (HP Envy 27) running with windows 8, I have the latest iTunes installed, and successfully transferred my itunes library (books, music, TV programs, podcasts etc) to the new computer. I've tried multiple times to sync my iPad Air with no success. Only the Podcasts and Apps have been synched. No TV programs, and only a few music albums and books came across, despite the fact I selected the albums and books to synch individually. Can anyone help please?

Since you are able to sync some content and not all, I would first unsync (uncheck the box and hit apply) for a category (lets say books), then go back and re-sync (check the box again) and select just one item that did not sync before. If it syncs then you know it's not the content.
If it doesn't sync, then you will have to do a little more testing to see what it is, like trying to sync from a new library or new user.
Also, verify in itunes what's on the iPad by showing the sidebar and clicking the arrow next to the iPad on that sidebar. You can see what has made it onto the iPad. If its on the iPad there, but not showing up in the proper place on the iPad's screen (like books in iBooks) then you will need to troubleshoot the device up to maybe even restoring it as new.

Can't Complete the Sync with new Computer

I can't complete sync the iPhone with iTunes 64 bit or 32 bit. The new computer runs a 64 bit OS. The error message states that the iPhone cannot sync 'Unknown Error (-53). It keeps on coming up. Can someone help me to how to complete the sync.

Deselect Sync music followed by selecting Apply.
If you now don't have anything selected under the Music tab, the Podcasts tab, the Movies tab, the TV Shows tab, or the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences and you don't have manually manage music and videos selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences, this should mean no iTunes content is available on your iPhone now - no music, no podcasts, no movies, no TV shows and no selected photos transferred from your computer.
If so, try selecting Sync Photos only under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences, select the folder of photos you want transferred to your iPhone followed by a sync. Is the sync for transferring photos from your computer successful? If yes, follow this by selecting Sync Movies under the Movies tab for your iPhone sync preferences, select a movie to be transferred to your iPhone followed by a sync. If this was successful along with transferring selected photos from your computer to your iPhone, the problem doesn't lie with photos or movies.
Follow me now?
Have you manually messed around with any files in your iTunes named folder on your computer where your iTunes library is stored?

WIFI sync iPad and iPhone with new computer?

Bought my iPad in the fall, but didn't sync with my iMac because it was old and performing miserably, and because I was waiting for the MacMini to get a refresh so I could use it as a Media Center. Well, now I have my shiny new MacMini, but when I go to my iPad settings to do a wifi sync, it says it will sync next time I'm near my friend's computer. This is strange, because the only time I've EVER hooked up to a computer was once, at his house, to charge up and copy a book I wanted. I did not do anything except drag the book to my iPad in the Devices list on the left (older version of iTunes). I've read on other boards that I have to right click on my iPad and "transfer purchases" but when I connect my iPad to the MacMini by USB, all it gives me is the "Welcome to your new iPad" screen, with the option to set up as a new iPad or restore from a backup. Right clicking merely asks me to eject or restore. The only backup listed is dated April 21, 2011, which is an old iPad that was stolen. I've been backing up this current iPad with iCloud and have never had a problem, but it would be nice to sync over wifi if i want to copy files or music, instead of relying on Dropbox all the time.
Simillarly, when I try to sync my iPhone, I get as far as the syncing options, but when I go to apply the changes, it warns me that my phone is synced with another computer and that I can proceed if I want to erase this phone and sync the contents with my current library. In both situations, I'm afraid to proceed because I don't want to lose vital work information that has been stored in various apps. Any words of advice here? I know my apps are backed up, but I don't want to be surprised by finding out that the apps were backed up, but not the data I entered into them. I previously followed a tutorial which claimed I could copy and edit a file from the original iMac and transfer it to the MacMini, forcing it to recognize my new compurer as the original library... so when I open iTunes on the new computer, it does load up the iPhone and recognize it over wifi, and I can fiddle with options without having to connect via USB... but I get halted by that warning, and the settings app on the phone itself still indicates my original library as the one it needs for wifi sync. I should also add that my original iMac indicates that I need a newer version of iTunes to connect with my iPhone's iOS, but it is also too old (it's Lion) to upgrade iTunes beyond it's current version. I feel like with all this amazing technology, the options for a person who buys a new computer but doesn't want to migrate the clustered mess of their old system... still shamefully limited... unless I'm missing something.

Hmm. That sounds easy enough... but how do I backup to the new computer when it doesn't give me the option? When I connect the iPad via USB, it asks me to:
• set up as a new IPad
• restore from a previous backup (where the only backup listed in the drop down menu is a stolen iPad with outdated information, dated April of 2011. It doesn't ask to restore from iCloud where this current iPad is backed up.)
If you're suggesting that I back up both devices to iCloud and then wipe them, then plug them into the new computer and restore from the iCloud backup, so that my new computer considers these new devices, that makes sense... except that I don't see an option to restore from iCloud. Does that option appear later? And is it absolutely certain that any app I have entered data into will restore that information as well, and not just the app? For example, if I have an index card app which I make essay notes in, will those notes definitely be backed up along with the app? Or just the app? I can't afford to lose all my work data.
Thanks.

Is there a way to use ipod with new computer without erasing entire library

I'm not really tech-savvy, but I'm tossing my old computer and getting a new one - is there a way to use my ipod on my new computer without erasing my existing library? It won't let me make changes to my ipod and wants me to erase everything that is on there right now - HELP!

Connect your iPod to your computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in iTunes enable it for disk use, this is required for most if not all the utilities listed below so they can access the files: Using your iPod as a storage drive
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
TuneJack Windows Only
iPod2PC Windows Only
iGadget Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
iRepo Windows Only
iPodRip Mac & Windows
YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
Music Rescue Mac & Windows
iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

How can I keep a playlist on phone when syncing with new computer?

When syncing my IPhone I am prompted with an ominous message that says "Are you sure you want to remove the existing music ... from this phone and sync with this ITunes library? Music .... will be removed and items will be synced from this ITunes library" The answer is no because I have a playlist I would like to keep on the phone, but add one which resides on the computer I am attempting to sync with. That is not an choice presented, the choices are Cancel or Remove and Sync. Apple should either give more options or at least a better explanation. I have synced this phone and computer combination before but have since created a new playlist in the computer (a Mac Mini).
So how can I keep a playlist on the phone and add one from the computer too? Is it possible to view the phone as a drive and move items around in that manner? I use ITunes on both Windows and Mac platforms but this issue has always been problem for me. I also have IPhone 3 (used as an IPod), IPhone 4S and Iphone 5.

Unless you can get the iPod backup file (and restore the iPod from that file on your new computer) from the "dead" computer you will lose all the app data you can export via email.
- Yu can trabsfer iTnes purchases from the iPod by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- You can transfer non-itunes purchased music to the new computer by using one of the third-party programs discussed in this previous discussion.
Best iPod to PC
- After you move the stuff to the new computer, either restore the iPod from the backup, or if no backup, restore to factory defaults,new iPod and sync.

How do I sync my iPhone 5 with new computer?

I just sold my computer to my friend, but need to sync my iphone with a new computer. I have a lot of information on it that I don't want to lose, especially voice notes. I don't want to loose anything on my phone, just transfer iTunes libraries.
I tried to sync it and a pop up window came up with the Erase and Sync option. If I back up my iphone, where can I access the file? I need to take the voice notes from my phone and put them into individual files on Finder.
thanks!!!
