Trying to save pictures and music
icloud says I am using the right apple id and password but its not an icloud account so how do I set that up
Hi Kschmuckal,
Select the method in the support article below that will best work for you:
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
For photos, here are instructions from our fellow Community Support member Terence Devlin:
To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
Also, you want to make sure you follow the instructions below to prepare your laptop for sale:
What to do before selling or giving away your Mac
Cheers,

I got a new ipad mini and chose to set up as a copy of my iPad. Didn't sync the music on however as it is a smaller model, not enough room. Now trying to get some pictures and music on. Chose some pictures that were not in iPhoto, got a message that I could only sync with one library, chose cancel, and apply and it downloaded my pictures anyway. Now trying to sync some music but just get "The iPad “Linda’s iPad” is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPad and sync with this iTunes library?" So I hit cancel. Have tried several times, same thing. What can I try?
You should be able to accept this message, it will cause existing music, photos (not camera roll) and videos (also excluding those in camera roll) to be removed and replaced with those from this computer. All other user data on the iPad will be unaffected.

The pictures have not been imported yet, but the iPhone display freezed at ITune connection page. Please help me save pictures and use the iPhone as usual. Restarting of the phone did not work so far.

Sending Telephone Directory, Pictures and Music from Nokia 2330 to Palm TX
I'm trying to connect my Palm TX to a Nokia 2330 Classic to send telephone numbers, pictures and music to my Palm. There is no problem using bluetooth to dial from Palm to Nokia 2330. Now, how can I send my info from 2330 to my Palm TX? Any ideas anyone?
Post relates to: Palm TXI don't think iTunes has a conversion tool. There might be third-party apps out there, but one sure-fire way to do it is to burn your tunes to a CD, then re-rip them back your PC as .mp3 files. A little clunky, but it's a way.

looking for idiot proof directions on how to restore my pictures and music to my iMAC. It was services and the hard drive cleared of my files. I've reinstalled office 2011 and am now trying to ficture out how to get the pictures and music back. I backed up the machine prior to the service call, but don't seem to know how to restore the pictures and music.
It all depends on how you made the backup and with what application. How was the backup created?

Can I store and see my pictures and music from my iPhone or iPad?
Can I store and see my pictures and music from my iPhone or iPad?
The answer to this is NO.. with modifiers.
You can store your music and photos on the Time Capsule.. which I do presume is what you mean.
However the TC is not a media server.. it is a dumb as a board file device. And ipad and iphone are not files devices.. Apple has tried hard to remove that layer from you.. albeit you can buy a file browser app.
So iTunes must be running on the network in order for you to access your music or pictures..
Using the TC merely as hard disk storage area is not wise.. it was not designed to do it.. and for iphoto at least Apple says don't do it.
The way to share itunes and photos in the network is using home sharing.
How to share music and video with iTunes - Apple Support
There are heaps of articles on sharing on the apple website.. just google home share itunes.
Now you could put your itunes library on the TC but you would gain nothing.. a computer still must be turned on.. and it will be slow and not able to be included in the backups.
NOTE.. Apple says you will eventually corrupt iphoto if you put it on a network drive.. it must be local.

This question was solved.
View Solution.Hi,
You can only recover files/data have not be overwritten. Normally you have to pay for a software such as Getdata or service to recover data/files but there are some free products:

What does "Only DRM free/unprotected" mean when trying to transfer pictures and videos to my laptop?
Only Digital Rights Management music and video which you do not own rights to copy or use cannot be placed on your device.
songs you have paid for or own outright will not have those restrictions.
hope that helped?
Good Luck -
How do you transfer photo albums to the computer? When I hook to USB, it only shows photos from the camera icon, not the photos icon. I am trying to save pictures for the in-laws from their ipad.
I have no clue that you mean by it only shows photos from the camera icon. It has to show the photos in the camera roll of the photos app since those are the only photos that you can import via the USB cable.
There are other ways of transferring photos to a computer, but they involve using third party apps. There are WiFi transfer apps that will do this. DropBox will also let you upload photos to a public folder and then download them to a computer.

I have created a slide show with pictures and music in Iphoto and when I try export it I get Error You do not have sufficient permission for this operation. Try to export to an external HD attached, all help would be gratefully received
Have you ever successfully saved anything to that external drive? My first two thoughts are that the drive isn't formatted for the Mac or that you don't have rights to save to the drive.
