Sync after new operating system

I replaced Vista with Windows 7 (nice change). But I did not save any itunes files fron the old setup when I did a clean install. I want to transfer the media content that is on the iphone to the pc. Having authorized the pc, when I sync, it doesn't transfer anything, the itunes being essentially empty. How can I get it to transfer from iphone to itunes, songs and purchased apps.

The sync process for iTunes content is a one way transfer process - from your computer to your iPhone.
By not including your iTunes named folder with your computer's backup, you will lost all former playlists, settings, playcounts, etc.
iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.

I'm really worried about it!!! I'm in Colombia (South America)!!!

I can understand, but just before the update was perfect. I'm really sad about thist

IPad calendar problems when syncing with new operating system

I downloaded iOS snow leopard to my computer and then when I performed a sync with my IPAD the calendar got messed up with several old appointments and things cluttering it up. Is there a way to revert back to what I had before I performed the sync?

Hi Techno bozo!
You should see if you have a backup of your device in iTunes. If you do, you can restore from that backup and get the correct information as it was at that time back onto your iPad. This article can help explain a little about restoring from a backup:

My computer has had a new operating system put on Windows 7 but I did not de-authorise my old computer which was Windows Vista and now I cannot sync my Ipod Classic as it keeps saying I have exceeded my maximum of 5 computers being authorised.

My computer has had a new operating system put on (Windows 7) but I did not de-authorise my old computer which was Windows Vista and now I cannot sync my Ipod Classic as it keeps saying I have exceeded my maximum of 5 computers being authororized. I tried doing this via my account in the Itunes Store but it still won't allow me to do this. Can anyone help?

Contact Apple customer support, they can reset your authorizations.

Contact Rhapsody to see if they have or plan to release an update for the app. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?

After upgrading the new operating system on my Droid Razr M it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select multiple message you have to delete them individually or the entire thread. Is there a way to get these back?

Well, that's kind of embarrassing. And I honestly thought I paid attention to that... It works perfectly now, thank you so much!
As expected, cdm-git also works fine since DMs only work in the root mode as of now.
Just for the record, both type commands output "/usr/bin/startx" and pacman -Q gives "systemd 215-4".

Synch them back from whatever contact manager or cloud service you stored them in.

After reinstalling operating system Windows 7, I lost apps and can no longer sync with Outlook 2010?

After reinstalling operating system Windows 7, I lost apps and can no longer sync with Outlook 2010?

apps are stored in
C:\Users\<your account name>\Music\iTunes\Mobile Applications
their extensions are .Ipa you can try doing a search on your harddisk
unless you formattet it when you reinstalled
but an app can only ever be bought 1 times on an appleID so if you try to buy them again it will give you a free download of the app and not charge you
about sync then if you connect the ipad and click info tab and set it to sync your outlook data it should sync without any problems

After installing new operating system, I can't connect to internet from an e-mail. What is wrong?

After installing the new operating system, I can't access the internet from an e-mail request. What' wrong?

Finally gave in and called Apple Support.
1) They had me restart while holding down the Option-Command-P-R keys (this resets the HW apparently. Didn't fix it.
2) Next they had me move my System Preferences folder to the trash. Still didn't fix it.
3) Lastly they had me move all my cache files to the trash and then empty the trash. Restarted and it seems to be fixed now.
I was told that sometimes after an upgrade if you don't "delete all your caches" that there can be problems. I'll have to see if the connection holds up since before the problem was intermittent, but at least now I have a case number and all seems well so far.
I encourage those who are experiencing issues to please call Apple Support - it appears that there is no one fix and it depends on so many different factors. If this issue re-appears I'll be back on the phone with them - plus I'll update this thread.
Thanks!

Hello Brian Delaney,
It sounds like you are trying to send emails but for some reason, thousands show activity. I would start by re indexing the mailbox to help troubleshoot the issue:
1.Quit Mail if it’s open.
2.In ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData, delete any file that begins with “Envelope Index,” such as Envelope Index or Envelope Index-shm.To show your home Library folder, hold down the Option key, then in the Finder choose Go > Library.
3.Open Mail.Mail creates new Envelope Index files. This process may take a few minutes, depending on how many messages Mail is reindexing.
Mail (Mavericks): Reindex messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14876
If the issue persists, I would next remove the account, restart the computer, and re add the account:
1.Choose Mail > Preferences, then click Accounts.
2.Select an account, then click Remove.
Mail (Mavericks): Remove mail accounts
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14944
Removing an Exchange or IMAP account doesn’t permanently delete the account’s mailboxes and messages because they’re stored on the mail server. To retrieve the account’s mailboxes and messages from the server, add the account again in Mail.
To add the account again, click the rather than the as described above and retest the issue.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Joe

HT1329 i have re-installed I-tunes and have a new operating system (Win 7 Pro). I now cannot sync as I-tunes says my I-Pod is already connected to a library and wants to erase my music on the I-Pod. What do i do to get around this problem?

An iPod is designed to be synced with only one computer/iTunes library at a time. If you try to sync the iPod with a new/different iTunes library, iTunes on the new/different computer will replace the contents currently on the iPod with whatever is currently stored in its own library.
If the music and content on your iPod is not in iTunes or in a backup somewhere you can use the information in this user tip from another forum member turingtest2 to help you copy this content from the Nano back to the PC and into iTunes.
