Why does not Apple allows iPhone to be sync by two different computers ?

I have a pc at home and one in office. But I can only sync it with my home pc. Why does not apple allow iPhones to be sync by atleats two pcs as having different pc for work and home is very general.

It is possible to sync from multiple libraries manually on other devices (iPads & iPods) so blanket statements that 'it's DRM' don't really make sense to me.
If it is the only reason why can't non DRM'd content be copied?
Manage content manually on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod - Apple Support
See step 6, iPods & iPads have fewer restrictions compared to iPhones.
Perhaps we would have a better idea if it wasn't all wrapped up in thousands of words spread between the multiple terms & conditions agreements.

You will need to read those terms & get legal help if you can't work it out titan_sifu, good luck.

  • Why does't apple allow you to read your iBooks library over the web from a browser or me account?

    Why does't Apple allow you to read your iBooks library over the web from a browser or me account? I have time to read during the day via a browser, but not by Ipad or Iphone. I love the features that iBook offers, but I have had to settle for Google books which is slow to upgrade its features. I just want to be able to highlight, copy and past and make notes and also have the option to read a book in a browser like google books.

    Wow.. I'm almost sorry that you spent so much time writing that post.
    Unfortunately, it would have much more impact if it were true.
    Just because you don't know how to do something... that doesn't mean it can't be done.
    I do what you say can't be done every day.
    You just need to put your iPod into manual update mode, and everything will be fine. You songs won't be greyed out, and you can play them with no trouble at all.
    So, next time you need help with something, just ask for help and we'll help you. It'll certainly make yourself look less foolish this way.
    Ranting and bashing Apple for no reason isn't going to win many people over.

  • Why does not Lightroom allow me to import RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark III?

    Why does not Lightroom allow me to import RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark III?
    Error message that it does not support cr. file

    Which version of Lightroom?
    As Hal points out, if it's pre v 4.1, you can't expect an old version of the software to know what to do with a camera that didn't even exist when the software was released.
    Given how many times a day this same issue comes up, maybe it's time Adobe changed the error message to something like "your camera is too old to be supported by this version of Lightroom. Please upgrade" or similar... 

  • Why  does not Apple help us with the wretched lightning cables that go so easily broken?

    6- 7 cables im just 6 month, 3 burned, 3-4 snapped, and one lost the end, we are getting nervous and afraid of using Apple products, and have bought Denver instead. Apple does not answear and the retailstore has a misery sevice.

    You'd get more knowledgeable answers if you posted in the appropriate forum - that would be iPad. This forum is to discuss the forums themselves.
    When you re-post, please be specific on what you did and what happened.

    Place it in recovery mode by:
    Placing your device into recovery mode
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
    Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes

  • Why does not safari allow to keep the zoom level over the whole website? This is universal problem for all ipad browsers.

    This is a big problem on sites like Tomshardware and Sweclockers and probably many more that Safari is not capable of keeping the zoom level the same over all website pages. And it makes the browsing experience on the IPAD an annoyance.
    You have to constantly double tap to see the website clearly for each webpage load. There should be settings to allow to remember the zoom level
    for a whole website. So you don't have to double tap on every new page of the website.
    The other browsers like ICAB and Mercury are not handling this any better and seem to be limited by the webkit rendering options available.
    It's instantly visible on Sweclockers and it becomes a problem on tomshardware when you click on a review link.
    I have included pictures here that showcase the problem.

  • Why does not apple have the same Support for customers in India like they have in UK ?

    Hi ,
    I was settled in Uk and now recently shifted to india, but here i see that there is a difference in the customer service support . I am under Guarantee from apple and any problem i used to have back in UK could be sorted over the phone possible. Like i used to have an option to recieve a call from apple support and get my issues solved if they were software issues. But here in India i see that any issues that i face i would have to take it to the Store. Well it gets a little irritating . Would like to know why the support is different in different places.
    Thanks

    I doubt if anyone here can answer your question as to why this is so. There is a phone support number in India, however - (91) 1800 4250 744.
    Best of luck.

  • Confused iPhone wi-fi syncing to two iTunes libraries

    My iPhone is confused. It is syncing to two different computers. I have always had it synced to my home MacBook, and only charge it via USB during work on a Windows7 computer. Never a problem in three years. Now with ios5 and iTunes 10.5, after setting up automatic wi-fi syncing with the Macbook at home, I now see that it is also set-up to auto-sync with my work windows computer. On the iPhone, both computers are individually listed in the Settings/General/iTunes Wi-Fi Sync, and I can sync to both and get no warnings, etc. Funny, the windows computer does not have wi-fi capabilities, but when I do connect it via cable to charge, i can initiate and complete a wi-fi sync. There are no apps at all on that iTunes. What is it syncing?
    Also, I never had music on my phone before, and I tried to add a few albums from my home iTunes library yesterday. When I pressed sync, iTunes said the phone was synced to another iTunes library. To continue, it would erase my iPhone completely and load everything from that computer. But, that's where all of the content came from in the first place!
    How do I remove the windows work computer from the Settings/General/iTunes Wi-Fi Sync page so only my home MacBook is listed, and clear up all the confusion my iPhone is having?
    Thanks!

    Hello,
    I have the same problem.
    I have 2 sync profiles for just the same Imac.
    The top profile is syncing correctly, only that profile is missing Podcasts and iTunes U.
    The profile bellow will not sync and that one got Podcasts and iTunes U in it.
    Can i combine the 2 profiles or can i remove the inactive one and get the other profile syncing Podcasts and iTunes U too?
    Thanks.

  • Why won't Apple allow Verizon to let me upgrade from an Android phone to an iPhone 5 early at the reduced price?

    Why won't Apple allow Verizon to let me upgrade from an Android phone to an iPhone 5 early at the reduced price?

    Here's one of my responses from Verizon:
    Dear Kevin,
    Good Afternoon; I know how frustrating it is to want a new phone, and be told that you are not eligible to upgrade early. My name is Shane, and I will be assisting you today regarding your most recent email.
    I am sorry to say that it is not possible for us to do the upgrade. We most certainly don’t want to lose a valued customer, but we can’t break our contract with Apple. If we did this for you, we would have to do it for everyone. If we did this for everyone we would risk losing our contract with Apple, and not be able to sell iPhones at all. I understand it is a savings to cancel your contract with us, and move to another provider we certainly don’t want you to do that, but that is an option for you.
    Kevin, I am sorry that we were not able to give you the resolution you were wanting. I do appreciate you being a valued Verizon Wireless customer, and I hope you have a good day!
    Sincerely,
    Shane
    Verizon Wireless
    Coordinator IRT

  • Why won't apple allow current "AppleCare" holders upgrade to "AppleCare "? Doesn't this seem unfair for such a giant in the tech industry to not offer such an opportunity?

    Why won't apple allow current "AppleCare" holders upgrade to "AppleCare "? Doesn't this seem unfair for such a giant in the tech industry to not offer such an opportunity?

    Sorry - not understanding. What do you mean by "upgrade"? When you purchase an Apple Product, you get AppleCare automatically - 90 Days of Telephone Support, and a 1-Year Warranty.
    You can then purchase an AppleCare Protection Plan for Mac, iPod, and Apple TV, or AppleCare+ for iPad or iPhone.
    AppleCare Protection Protection Plans can be purchased any time within the 1-year warranty period.
    Apple+ must be purchased within 30 days of purchase.
    AppleCare Protection Plan extends the warranty to 3 years for Macs, and to 2 years for Apple TV and iPod.
    AppleCare+ extends the warranty to 2 years for iPad and iPhone.
    There is no "upgrade"....You either purchase the extened warranty protection plan or you don't. And unlike most extended warranty plans, you are NOT required to purchase it at the time you purchase your Apple product.
    What's the beef here?

  • HT202157 Why does my apple TV say it needs hdcp compatibility.  It never said that before.  Now my apple tv is not working.

    Why does my apple TV say it needs hdcp compatibility.  It never said that before.  Now my apple tv is not working.

    Hello Rickpoulette,
    The following article provides further information and could very well help get your Apple TV and your television cooperating again.
    If HDCP authentication does not succeed, you may see one of the following symptoms:
    A message may appear on your television stating "This content requires HDCP for playback. HDCP isn't supported by your HDMI connection."
    You may see periodic bands of static, or full screen static, flashing across your TV screen.
    If you are experiencing either of the symptoms above, try playing the same content again for at least another 10 seconds. If the issue persists, try the following steps until the issue is resolved:
    Connect your Apple TV (2nd generation) directly to your HDTV using an HDMI cable.
    Set your Apple TV and HDTV to off or sleep mode
    From the Apple TV interface, select: Settings -> Sleep Now.
    Turn off your TV and wait for about 10 seconds.
    Turn your TV back on.
    Press the Select button on your Apple TV remote to wake your Apple TV.
    Some HDTVs may need a firmware update. Consult your TV manufacturer's user manual or online support pages for additional information about how to update your TV's firmware.
    If available, try using a different HDMI to HDMI cable, such as an Apple HDMI to HDMI cable, directly between your Apple TV (2nd generation) and 720p HDCP-compatible HDTV.

    I have recently purchased a used iPhone 4, when I pulg it into my pc a skull icon appears instead of the apple.  The pc also does not recognise the iPhone.  The phone was originally purchased in March of this year, so it is under 12 months old.  Has anybody encountered this problem and or know how I can fix the phone? Thanks

    You have apparently purchased a jailbroken phone.  You can try to get it into recovery mode, then restore as new, but no guarantee it will work.

    Why does the Apple tv light come on when I am not using it?

    my atv1 does that sometimes
    I'm 90% sure that it's because it crashed and rebooted
