An iPhone can only sync with one computer at a time. All of the music you want on your phone must be on the same computer.

Error message when I try to download new iTunes as follows iPhoto 7.1.5 is already installed and was not purchased from the Mac App Store

I am trying to download new version of iTunes from App store having purchased it on my laptop. When I try to download on my iMac I get the following message:
Error message when I try to download new iTunes as follows: iPhoto 7.1.5 is already installed and was not purchased from the Mac App Store - and then I am asked if I want to buy it again. I don't understand the error message and I don't want to purchase the new version again.
Also, since upgrading to Lion my videos (from Sanyo Xacti camera) do not play on iTunes. I can only open photos.
Thank you.

Make a back up of your Library. Now you can update without fear.

Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
If created the account (e.g. you're not in the process of creating it and are stuck on the payment screen) and you are being prompted to review it then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you reviewit without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054
If not then you will need to create a new account, and follow the instructions on that HT2534 page when creating it. If you want to use the same email address then you will need to replace it on that account first e.g. by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com

The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version. You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes. Or you can adapt to the new look.

It should be telling you to download the latest iTunes on your computer... you can't install iTunes on your iPhone.

Hello katyhale,
I found a couple of articles that might help with the issue you are experiencing with the iTunes Store.
If you are getting a white screen when accessing the iTunes Store and using a Windows computer, I recommend reviewing this article:
Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4123
If you are still not able to access the store, I recommend the following article:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

When i try to put new my music it deletes the ones that were already on

when i try to put new my music it deletes the ones that were already on my ipod. How do i stop this?

You can delete songs from your iTunes/computer hard drive after transferring them to the iPod, and for this you need to set your iPod to manage the songs manually.
However, this is an extremely risky option because when (and not if) there comes a time to restore your iPod, which is a very common fix for iPod problems, then all the music would be erased. If you no longer have the music in iTunes (or any other back up), then all that music would be lost.
What if the iPod were lost/stolen/needed repair? Again, the music would lost. I strongly recommend a back up, and if computer hard drive space is in short supply, you should seriously consider an external hard drive. They are not expensive, and the cost is well worth it when compared to the loss of all your precious music.
At the very least back up your music to either cd or dvd before deleting it, particularly any purchased music/videos, as this would have to be bought again if it were lost. See this.
Backing up your media in iTunes.
Please excuse the sermon, but we see far too many people lose their music because of no back up.

Any Help?I know the update has only been out a while but if anyone has an idea why it is doing this, please let me know!

But you are telling me something I already know.
Be precise.
It is not Pages '09 that is broken.
I am back in Mavericks and testing Pages 5.2.
There are improvements, we shall see how useful, but in less than a minute I have already discovered bugs.

Make sure you have cookies enabled and clear your cache. If it continues to fail try using a different browser.

HT5622 When I try to update my apps in the App Store it says sign in required and will not let me update then

When I try to update my apps it says sign in required and will not let me update them

I suspect you have apps that need updating that were purchased from more than one account
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

When I try to play an iTunes purchased movie, all I get is a black screen and no sound. Any suggestions?

TIA.

Note that the videos will play fine in Quicktime. But trying to play the videos in iTunes does not work. The videos that are sinced will play on my iPhone 4 as well. Other videos not purchased in iTunes will play fine in iTunes.
Not above un- and re-installing, but if there is a quicker fix, would prefer that.

Why is it when I try to make a purchase on my iPad it says the purchasee cannot bemade and I dont know what to do

Can you please help me? I dont know how to fix it.

You may need to contact iTunes support for this: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

HT201210 when I plug my Ipad 2 in to charge the a message comes up not charging and will only charge half way 58 percent

My IPad 2 will not charge over 58 %

Are you charging it via its wall charger or a computer's USB port ? Have you tried a reset to see if it charges after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I want to add new songs to my ipod. When I set it up with itunes years ago I had a different computer that I no longer have. Now it will not let me add new songs to my ipod shuffle without erasing everything that is already on it. Help!!!

Yes, I was aware of this but the phrase "Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your device to the iTunes library." is what worries me. Will this eliminate my Notes, Calendar Events, etc or will it apply mostly just to the music?
