This is my first iphone and I have never synced a phone to my computer.

I have no contacts stored on my mac and don't want to lost my contacts when my phone tries to sync to my computer. I also don't want all of my music to sync onto my phone. What do i do?

Just check the 'Manually sync music' box (or some iteration of that) when you plug it into iTunes under the iPhone tab.

Connect the phone to your computer, but do not sync. Make sure iTunes is authorized to the same account that you bought the apps with. Then select "Transfer Purchases" from the iTunes File menu. Once this finishes the apps will be on your computer, so you can sync safely.

If the Device is disabled and you have No Backup... all you can do is Restore using iTunes on your Computer and then Re-Sync your Content.
The Restore will Erase all Data.
Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore...

2) If necessary Place the Device into Recovery mode...

We have 2 iphone 4s which have just been updated with IOS5 and whilst setting up icloud the phone contacts were merged and now i have lost my phone contacts on first iphone 4 which have been replaced with phone contacts from my second iphone 4. help?

We have two Iphone 4 handsets. I updated first handset with IOS5 and activated Icloud with my existing Itunes account details - no problems. I then did the same on the second handset and instead of setting up a different Icloud account for the second hanset I mistakenly used the same details as on the first handset and merged the contacts thinking it would add all contacts to both handsets but it instead replaced contacts from first handset with those from the second handset.
How do I get back my contacts from the first hanset?
I read somewhere Icloud saves the last 3 backups which suggests all my contacts that have disappeared are somewhere but how do i find them ???
Help ???

Here's how to do it.
1. App Store, iTunes Store should have the same AppleID on Computer and iPhones. (Free to share apps, music and books... )
2. Person A uses the same purchasing account for everything (ie. email, contacts and ...).
3. Person B have the same purchase account see no. 1 (for App Store and iTunes Store) but create a second AppleID for iCal, e-mail, contacts and etc.

To send a MMS to a non-iPhone you must have cell data on.

My children have accidently locked my out of my iphone 4s, I have never synced it to a computer but I am backed up to icloud. How do I fix this?

My children have accidetly locked me out of my iPhone 4s, I was showing my youngest how to put a pass word on her ipod, by using my phone as a demo and when it came time to put the pass code in my baby touched the screen and ...well...uh oh. Now the pass code to get into the phone is a mystery. How do I fix this I can't get into my phone at all . I've never synced my iphone to my computer but I do sync to Icloud. I have to pay $19.99 just to talk to someone from apple support.

You can use the "Use recovery mode" in the following link and then restore from iCloud. iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled

HT1212 What happens if you forget the password of your iPad and done it wrong so many times then it said connect to itunes and you have never synced your iPad to any laptop and the only way is to erase the device can you import pictures before erasing

Hi I'm Zeina Halim. I have an iPad 4 and I forgot its password. So I kept trying over and over again till it said iPad is disabled connect to iTunes. One problem I've never synced my iPad and apple is telling me the only way to reset the password is to erase all data from the iPad. So I'm asking is there another solution or can I atleast import the photos on some device before I erase it. Pls answer fast because I REALLY need to use it. Thank you

HT202213 I am told that I have authorized 5 computers already (this is my first time) and I have to deauthorize this computer inorder to get home sharing. Help! this makes no sense. What a pain Apple tv is.

I have almost never used my appe tv--passwords and id get so confusing--it makes me tierd and I give up and walk away. But now I need to use my Home Sharing feature and am told by iTunes that I can only authorize 5 computers to do this and according to their count, I have already done 5. I have only two computers so I know this is not correct. But what can I do about it? I am told by a pop up that I should deauthorize this computer--the only one I want to use for this project--it makes no sense to me. This has already eaten up my day with reseting passwords, ids etc. I'm almost ready to throw Apple TV out. This $100.00 object has already eaten up more than $100.00 of my time! Help.

Simply deauthorize all, then authorize your computer.

I forgot my passcode on my Iphone 5s and i have never accessed my itunes on my computer with it. how do i reset it?

Help me reset
