  • Any idea why a "Special Savings" bar with similar items for sale, keeps popping up on my screen anytime I'm shopping online now? Seems like this started after a firefox update and it's super annoying. Please help!

    Anytime I'm shopping for something online now, a bar pops up over the product image with suggestions for buying the same product or similar products online from other websites. It's got "Special Savings" in the bar as the title and says it's powered by "superfish" when you open it. I've not signed up for anything like this and it seems to have started when I updated firefox the last time. I can "x" out of it, but it's a pain and I'd like to get rid of it. Anyone else know what this is and how to get rid of it?

    You might have an add-on doing this. Try to see if you have any add-ons doing this. To see if an add-on is affecting it please start firefox in [[Safe Mode]]

  • Syncing contacts with iTunes without using iCloud

    Since the new iTunes Version 11.1.3 it seems not possible to sync contacts, browser bookmarks and other things via WLAN sync. I don't want to see my contacts on Apple servers in order to be synced via iCloud.
    Is there any possibility to sync an iPhone with iTunes without using iCloud. I'm quite angry Apple not leaving the decision on how to sync my iPhone up to me.

    User error.

  • HT204150 im not sure why only a few of my contacts have been synced and not everyone? How do i sync all contacts from my iphone to my ipad? I have synced my phone with Itunes on my laptop.

    It's a good idea to backup your Mac Address Book application and iCal Calendars application from each application. This way you can go back and pull out items if you lose something. I do this everyday.

  • I synced my 3G with itunes for the first time and lost all contacts and information on phone, help?

    I synced my 3G iphone with itunes for the first time, and lost everything on my phone. how do i get it back?

    You don't.
    You synced your iPhone with iTunes for the first time after how long?
    And this didn't happen by syncing only. This means you transferred the backup for another iPhone or you restored the iPhone with iTunes. It is not possible for everything to be lost by syncing alone. All iTunes content on your iPhone can be lost but not any photos in the Camera Roll and the same for contacts unless you synced contacts with an empty address book application on your computer.

  • After syncing iPad Air with iTunes the Info Page no longer shows up.  Doesn't matter if I sync via wi-fi or try another computer.  Without the Info Page how do I sync my calander/contacts/mail ??

    I think there's a big ol' discussion in the Mavericks forum about this - some folks have suggested setting up your own CalDAV server so you can continue syncing without having to route things through iCloud.
    It may be simpler to go back to Mountain Lion or Lion (assuming you were on either of those). My syncing computer is on Lion and can't go higher so I didn't realize until recently that USB syncing over contacts & calendars was no longer available!

  • Sync Outlook 2010' Contacts with iTunes

    How can I define on iTunes settings, that My Outlook 2010 Contacts, will change the Contacts details on iTunes( and of course my iPhone 4 ) ?
    And vice versa ?
    Thanks

    Just another question / idea:
    Can I sync the iphone contacts with itunes on the Macbook AND the Windows XP computer?
    I mean I could imagine the sync's as follows:
    from Windows XP:
    * Outlook 2010 contacts
    * Outlook 2010 calendar
    * music
    from Macbook:
    * contacts
    OR
    from Windows XP:
    * Outlook 2010 contacts
    * Outlook 2010 calendar
    from Macbook:
    * contacts
    * music
    How would I have to do the set-up?

    Sometimes my ipod does not down load my entire library when I sync up with itunes, even if I have items loaded in the play list and can see them in the play list in my itunes when I check my ipod play list some items are missing part 1 will be there but part two is not. Why?????

    How is your iPod configured to sync music from your iTunes library?  In other words, what options and configurations do you have enabled from under the iPod's Summary and Music configuration panes in iTunes?

  • HT4191 i cant sync my windows seven contacts with itune because of the "over the air option cant be changed" help me

    i cant sync my windows seven contacts with itune because of the "over the air option cant be changed" help me

    This sounds like you configured the phone to sync contacts with iCloud or with an MS Exchange email account. If you want to sync directly with your computer you will need to disable the over the air sync settings on the iPhone.

  • Syncing IPhone apps with ITunes or vice versa?

    I have what is probably a very simple question but the more information that I read the more confused I'm getting. I use my IPhone to download apps and then I delete them if I decide I don't want them. I only use ITunes to "backup" my device. I have never downloaded an app to Itunes and I don't plan to; I do everything on the phone itself. It is my understanding that if I sync with Itunes I can first transfer purchases from the phone and then sync the phone with itunes. It is also my understanding that the end result is that the apps on my phone will match the apps in itunes. However, if I deleted 20 apps from my phone but not from Itunes, then syncing is just gonna put them right back on my phone, correct?
    All I want to do is backup my phone in case something happens. I don't care what's accessible to me if I'm on ITunes because I never am. Can I just backup my phone and completely ignore the apps? If I were to lose my phone, I could just login to the app store and re-download them.
    Sorry for the lengthy question but it seems I'm trying to do the opposite of what syncing is intended for. Is syncing synonymous with backing up?
    Help please.

    It is my understanding that if I sync with Itunes I can first transfer purchases from the phone and then sync the phone with itunes.
    Before you connect your phone to your computer, make sure that autosync is disabled in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices.
    Make sure to have at least one contact and event listed on your computer, syncing to an empty address book will delete your contacts.
    Right click on your device and choose "transfer purchases". All bought media and apps from iTunes will be copied to your iTunes library on your computer. Apps you deleted on your phone before will not be transferred, but iTunes will remember that you bought them, in case you want to download them again for free: Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Apps you deleted on the phone will not be synced back unless you select them again in the app pane and sync your phone after that.
    Transferring your apps to your iTunes library is necessary, because the phone is not supposed to be a backup medium. You might consider that when iOS5 and iClound will be introduced, but until then it's a good idea to have a backup of your apps inside your iTunes library.
    To back up manually without syncing do this:
    Right click on your phone in the device list and choose "backup". A manual backup without a sync will be performed. See what's saved inside the backup here: iPhone and iPod touch: About backups

  • When I try to sync my iPod with iTunes I can't because it says it's over capacity. It's not. It's a 16 GB iPod, it's only 105 songs on there. No movies or pictures or such. Anybody got a word of advise?

    When I try to sync my iPod with iTunes I can't because it says it's over capacity. It's not. It's a 16 GB iPod, it's only 105 songs on there. No movies or pictures or such. Anybody got a word of advise? I've tried resetting the iPod but get the message that it's not possible cause i'm not connected to internet. I am though. Tried managing music manually. I've tried all the usual stuff.

    Go to Settings > General > Usage and see how much is shown available and how much is in "Other".
