Need Administrator account when syncing iPhone 4G

Asked By tom brown 25 points N/A Posted on - 11/02/2011

I am running Windows Vista on my computer. We used our own user accounts when accessing Windows. And no Administrator account is made. When I plugged in the iPhone 4G and tried to sync over WiFi, it was looking for iTunes at the administrator account though it isn't there. How can I access it on my own user account? Help please.

Need Administrator account when syncing iPhone 4G

Hi Tom,

Are you saying you have not one administrator account on your computer?

This is strange as you need one to do almost all necessary tasks.

Most of the computer users don't know that there is an administrator account created when you install windows. This won't be shown in the logon screen so most people think it is not there.

To get access to it press Ctrl + Alt + Del key twice at the logon screen. This will open the classic logon window. In the username type administrator and leave the password blank and login. This will get you to this account.

I think that you require an admin account to synchronize your iPhone. Create an account in the User Accounts in the control panel, you need to get through the said administrator account.
