HT4623 I started to download the new software and had to stop in between.  I started it back up again and my phone now has a picture connecting to itunes.  The phone will not let me do anything else what do i do

I started to download the new software and had to stop halfway.  I started to finish it later this evening and then while it was doing that it went to a black screen saying to connect to itunes.  What do I do?

Is your device recognized by your computer? If yes, copy the pictures and videos as shown in this article:
Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer
If it is not recognized, try this first: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Disable autosync in iTunes, right click on it in the device list and choose "transfer purchases" to copy apps and other media bought in iTunes to your new library.
Do the same again and choose "backup", to create a manual backup without syncing.
Since your device will be erased due to the new iTunes library during the first sync, you can use this backup afterwards to restore your settings and data.
Set up at least one contact and event on your computer before you start, to be able to merge calendars and contacts.

  • HT2693 cannot connect to itunes store.  will not let me get any apps?

    When I press the app store icon it comes back with "cannot connect to itunes store"
    I am unable to get any apps.

    Do you have a data connection? In other words do you have 3G, E, or the wireless symbol next to the bars and telco name?

    You have no choice but to restore the phone.
    However, I'm sure you've been smart enough to have backed up your data before starting the most significant update in iOS history,right?

    I downloaded a newer version of iTunes, 10.7. Now it will not let me purchase anything. I get an error code -42408. What does this mean and how do I fix? I have edited and revised all my names and account settings, checked payment. Quit, restarted. Help please, I'm going crazy without my iTunes. I'm on a MacBook Pro.

    Found this item it may help
    OK, I have fixed it here. Here's what I did:
    quit iTunes
    trashed ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iTunes.plist
    started iTunes, and authorised my account
    Worked straight away after that !

    You may have installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

    This trojan is distributed on illegal websites that traffic in pirated movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect much worse to happen in the future.
    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

  • HT201209 I have remaining credit at the iTunes Store, but will not let me use without a download code! That code was thrown away month ago, after downloading it. How can I use my unused credit $??

    I have remaining credit at the iTunes Store, but will not let me use without entering 'your Gift Card or Download Code' which, of course, was thrown away months ago, when I first put the code in! Originally it was put into my computer, now I'm trying to redeem on my iPhone. Anybody have any ideas....I mean it IS my money! Thanks Ruthie

    What you are saying does not make sense. You redeem a card once, that's it. It doesn't matter what device you are using, as long as it's using the same account, you will get the reminder of your store credits.
    Could you give more details now?

  • HT202667 I did not do my research before changing my Apple ID from an outdated email address to a current one. I just changed and verified and though I was all set. WRONG! Now I cannot sign in to iCloud because it will not let me enter the new Apple ID! H

    I did not do my research before changing my Apple ID from an outdated email address to a current one. I just changed and verified and though I was all set. WRONG! Now I cannot sign in to iCloud because it will not let me enter the new Apple ID. I read the 10/30/13 randers4 post to just change your Apple ID back then sign in and change it to the new email address again and then you can sign in, but I cannot change back to the prior email address Apple ID because that is no longer an active email account (or at least not mine). Any thoughts on how to get signed into iCloud when it does not allow me to type in the new Apple ID and the old Apple ID no longer exists.
    I see that many people have asked, but no one has come up with a solution that I found.
    Thanks for any help!

    This did not work for me.  My old email account for iCloud still pops up on my screen every time I open my macbook.  I've deleted it, reset it, every thing I can think of and it still shows up.  I think six months of this is more than enough time to wait.

    Hi there,
    Wondering if you might know?  I don't have enough space to update the new software on iPad.  So my facetime isn't working anymore, this is prob why. Seems I have to delete like all the games/apps we have to do so.  Will I lose the progress data/levels in the games? But how do I back up the games data?
    Please help.  Scared to delete them to update and then not have the space to restore them and if I get them again will the levels/progress be gone?
    Thanks Rachel

    Connect your device to iTunes and do the update through iTunes. Using a computer takes much less space on your device than doing the update on your device.

  • Ovi Suite 2.0 WILL NOT LET ME DO ANYTHING because ...

    First off I want to say that Ovi Suite will not let me do anything because the program is locked up trying to find maps. I can't stop it no matter what I try and do. Reinstalling it does nothing for me, since as soon as I open the program up again, it's trying to connect to the maps server. All I want to do is backup my phone. That's all. Nokia this is the worst piece of software you have ever released. I don't know what you were thinking.
    Can anybody help me cancel the Map loader while it's trying to connect to the server? I've looked everywhere for something to cancel it but I find nothing and I can't do anything I need to do in Ovi Suite because of it.

    I'm running Win XP Pro 32-bit SP2,
    N97-3 (RM-507) running firmware v 20.2.019,
    USB connection,
    Nokia Ovi Suite 2.0.1.35,
    PC Connectivity Solution 9.39.0.0,
    Connectivity Cable Driver 7.1.20.0
    Nokia Ovi Suite Software Updater 2009.40.0.60128
    Maps Service API 3.0.35.0
    Nokia mPlatform 2.5.195
    Ovi Desktop Sync Engine 1.0.0.684
    I also tried my E71-2 (RM-357) running v 200 firmware, and still, the second I connect it, Maps tries to start loading, never does, and prevents me from doing the things I need to do (Backup, software updating, message syncing). There's no way to cancel it.
