Frequently Asked Questions
Does Sharepod 4 work with my iPhone, iPad, or iPod?
Yes! Sharepod 4 works with all iDevices ever made.
iTunes is asking to sync or restore my device. What should I do?
Do NOT initiate an iTunes sync or restore until after you are done transferring your data with Sharepod 4 to avoid any dataloss. iTunes will delete any data on your device that's not already in iTunes. Just cancel any of those prompts, and to prevent them, you can go into iTunes Preferences, and on the Devices tab, check the box to "Prevents iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically".
How do I transfer my SMS text messages from my iPhone to my computer?
You'll need to use
iExplorer 3 to transfer text messages from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch to your computer. It can export SMS, MMS, and iMessage conversations as a PDF file which looks very close to the way it appears in the Messages app on your device.
I am getting a Runtime Error (at 31:1151) during the install of Sharepod 4 for PC. What should I do?
You'll need to install
Microsoft .Net Framework 4, a free application that's required to run our software in Windows. Then, restart your computer and try again.
