Current Setup:
iPhone4 A Sync to PC1 with iTune Account A
iPhone4 B Sync to PC2 with iTune Account B

Over last few months, iPhone4 A and B purchases some apps and songs separately.

What I want to achieve here is:-

1. iPhone4 A Sync to PC1 with iTune Acount A - remain no change
2. Move iPhone4 B to sync with PC1 without losing the purchased apps and songs
3. Change iPhone4 B to use iTune Account A

Questions:-

1. Checked apps forum, mostly mentioned creating 2 windows user or new iphone user.
And I don't want to create 2 user login on my windows.

2. How to move those purchases from iTune Account B to iTunes Account A?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

You can not merge 2 accounts. What you do is authorize both iTunes account of 2 different iPhones in the same PC.Then transfer purchase the apps to the iTunes.

QUOTE
1. Open iTunes.
2. From the Store menu, choose Authorize Computer.
3. In the dialog that appears, the Apple ID button is selected by default. If you have an AOL account, select AOL.
4. Enter your Apple ID or AOL screen name and password, then click the Authorize button.

Try to hard restart your device (hold home and power button till your device restarts), and if that doesn't work, you'll probably have to restore.

Q: Assuming that I intend to format/reinstall the operating system on my PC/MAC, do I need to backup the contents of my purchased contents (for example music, videos, movies et cetera) off the iTunes store?
A: Oh, yes. However, you will be pleased to know that, with Apps (from the App Store), you can actually re-download them again at no extra cost. This also implies that you can, technically re-download previously purchased Apps with your other iPhones/iPod Touch(s) (provided they carry your proposed and sychronised iTunes account).


Apps not to worry, follow the above solution. Just backup manually your mp3 in your PC will do.
As far as I understand, you intend to just reformat your PC but NOT your iPhone. Nothing is gona vanished. After you manage to reformat just reinstall iTunes.

Then plug in your iPhone and click "backup", with that click iTunes will automatically have your backup secured.

You can't login, logout or register through app store app icon. A big BUT, do in under settings.app.

Settings > Store > Sign In > Create new Apple ID.

Incase you don't get it:

Download update now available for IOS 4.3.4 only. Further it wont save your downloaded file. You will need to plug in to iTunes will downloading the ipsw, and automatically update your iPhone IOS after done.

If you wish to save stock firmware, download from here.

the problem is when the time i download update is still ios 4.3.3. once finish download, it still have the file on the itunes download corner. during dl, i opt for download file only without auto update my phone because i tot of updating it later. i accidentally exit my itunes, and when i go in itunes again, the download corner for my ios4.3.3 didn't show already. thn itunes pop up their recent ios4.3.4 release.

so is that means the ipsw file i dl earlier is deleted or still remain on my pc?
*
Even you manage to download 4.3.3, no use for you already. As Apple has stopped signing 4.3.3. You can only restore to 4.3.3 IF you have 4.3.3 shsh saved via Cydia.

Works fine for all other country iTunes if you ask me. The trick is to pick your country at the bottom part of iTunes. After choosing your country just follow the steps on how to setup an itunes account should be fine.

Q: Can i make purchase in US iTunes account with M'sia Credit Card?
A: You will not be able to make purchases from the US iTunes Store with a Malaysian credit card. The solution to this is to get the iTunes Gift Cards which you can use to redeem for store credit. You can buy these gift cards locally by looking for sellers in the Garage Sales section. (To redeem: iTunes Program>iTunes Store>Quick Links>Redeem)

If I gonna reformat my desktop OS which I having copy of my backup on it, the moment it reinstalled OS on my desktop, and I connect my iPhone on it and sync, it seems that all apps' data has lost, all save games, all history, etc.
Contacts and official apps data it will keep, musics, photos and videos is not an issue for me, but 3rd party apps are always lost it data and just like a new app, even its placement in my home screen is reset once I sync to my newly formated PC. What should I do to keep all things unchanged but sync to new PC as usual?

p.s. using Windows 7.

You reformat your pc but not your iPhoney rite?
A simpler way, after reformat your ios just plug in ur iphone once again and right click 'iphone name' and select 'backup'.

My guess its on cache related or something. Try with other computer. Never had any problem creating an Apple ID. Perhaps you should first restart your computer for a fresh start.

But when i use attach cable with iphone to my computer, itunes does not pop out and didnt show iphone under the left tab. What should I do?

Maning your iPhone now is undetectable via iTunes issit? If yes, then restart your computer make sure your cable is attached to USB slot before on your comp back. You should hear iPhone detectable notice when you boot up.

HI there, so I was fiddling with my phone and wanted to update my music in my iPhone (IOS 5.0.1) i plug in the cable as normal and connected it to my laptop. But iTunes keep giving me alert that Apple Mobile Device isn't running. So I open up services from my start menu and starting it manually, still itunes keep saying that Apple Mobile Device isn't running. *Note* my iTunes is 10.5.1.42 and also my iPhone 2G which is running IOS 3.1.3 can't be detected also. I already tried completely deleting itunes and apple software on my laptop using Totally Uninstaller and reinstalling them again. Not quite sure if I'm the only one facing this problem. This started happening when the new itunes updated. sad.gif

I do hope there is a solution for this
*
I had this problem few months back when I clean restore my Mac and restored from my hdd backups. My iTunes was kinda sick that time, same symptoms as yours where all my iDevices are undetectable. Luckily I get to fix the problem by reinstalling iTunes.
Anyway, try guide by google source : here.
Receiving quite a positive feedbacks from testers. Good luck.


QUOTE(M.I.N.S @ Dec 5 2011, 06:33 AM)
i realized i had these others stuff for around 1gb after i updated my i3gs to ios5
i never jb before any ideas what is that?
*
Your iPhone is newly restored to IOS5 rite? Try re-sync your iPhone with your iTunes or restore from previous backup. It might pull the "other" capacity down. IMO, 1GB for IOS5 stock is quite reasonable, ask it is the operation system for IOS5.
