Transfering my mp3 music to apple devices?

I have tryed to transfer music from my laptot to my ipod and my iphone, but I can't because when I select the music that I want and then send it/copy it, it does not work. My laptop is a Aspire One (acer). I have the itones app and an apple account. But I don't really want to spend money buying music. So if someone knows how to transfer my mp3 music to my devices please let me know. There's no way? Do I have to buy the music? Or there's s method to transfer my mp3 to itones and then to my ipod and iphone?

When should I get my iPhone? - 2

I'm 14, going to high school in about 2 and a half months and I want an iPhone 5. I talked with my parents and they said I could get one if I pay $20 of the $40 monthly fee.

I heard that Apple just invented iOS 7 and it looks amazing and I want it so badly! The thing is… It comes out in the fall.

When you have the iPhone 5 with iOS 6 is it able to update for free when iOS 7 comes out? If so, should I get my iPhone right before school starts with iOS 6 and then update it with 7 or wait until 7 comes out and then get my phone? Will any of my information be lost if I'm able to update it? Will it be a waste of money to pay for it as an iPhone with iOS 6 as I'm waiting for 7 to come out? Will they invent an iPhone 6 to go with the iOS 7? What would you do in my situation?

How to unlock an AT&T iphone?

So I'm planning on buying an AT&T iphone 4s from ebay. It is not unlocked at the moment, but from what I understand if the contract is up AT&T will happily unlock it for me. But since I'm not the original owner, I don't know if the contract IS up or not. Is there a way for them to check their databases or something? I need to unlock it so that it can be used with Straight Talk, if that detail makes any difference.

I've also heard that you can purchase the unlock code, but I'm a bit wary of that. Is this a good alternative to having AT&T unlock it, and if so can you recommend where to buy the unlock code?

Thanks for reading, any and all advice is appreciated!

How to tell someone that your photograph is your own?

I'm taking a French class online, and one of the assignments was to turn in a photo of something French and translate it in English. I did that, but my teacher thinks I used a picture from the internet. How do I tell her that it is my own photo without sounding rude online? Here is her message:
"This is a great picture, (my name), and your explanation is wonderful. But we can't use a picture from the Internet for this activity. We would like you to look around your own house or community and find something with French on it. It could be cosmetics, food labels, TV and iPhone manuals, soaps, clothes, anything you can find that has French written on it. Take a picture and send it in, telling us what it is."

I got my iPhone 5 wet and it was never on. Will it be okay?

I put it in a bag of rice and like 15 minutes later took out the sim card. Should I take out the battery as well? Since it was off when it got wet, will there be any damage?

Added (1). If I leave it in for 48 hours, will there be any damage?
