Is this an iPhone or iPad question? You posted in the iPad forum.
See
iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

    I am unable to download updates directly to iPad 2 , now trying to reinstall one from scratch but download keeps stopping and the restarting. Can you offer any advice, this happening when trying to download to laptop in itunes as well. Have tried to download on different broadband lines without success. Is this an apple problem due to high demand or something else?
    Everything has worked well until about a month ago, up to date iOS 5 and itunes installed. Tried resetting numerous times, turned off all apps still no joy. Ipad was great but now feeling buying one was mistake. Also recent music purchase was useless and tunes would not play correctly.

    Since this is happening on the iPad and the computer, it might be worth a try to reboot your router - unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.
    Quit iTunes on the PC, reboot it and the iPad as well
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons

    - If still problem, see it iTunes nows sees the iPod so you can restore the iPod.
    - Next see if placing the iPOd in recovery mode will allow a restore. For recovry mode:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Last, try DFU mode and restore.

  • Citrix problem - can anyone offer any advice please ?

    I'm trying to connect to work (Windows environment) with Citrix ICA Client 7.00.407. I use a VPN connection to the server which works fine, and then I try to access a Published Application through ICA client.( This is what I've been instructed to do by my IT people).
    I manage to get as far as the grey window where it says "Checking your Credentials" (which I put into the client editor beforehand) when I get a message saying that I must have Terminal Server User Access permissions to log on to this remote computer. I click OK and the Citrix client quits.
    My IT dept. have assured me that I have these Terminal Server User Access permissions. That's the point when look upon my Mac like an alien and cannot help any further.
    Can anyone offer any suggestions please ?

  • Help! Can anyone offer any advice re color settings?

    Hi all, I just don't know where to begin! Take a look at the screenshots attached.
    The two images look completely different. Photoshop CS5 renders the image entirely differently. I now notice that in my old copy of CS3 the image renders way closer to what I see in ACDSee AND in Lightroom. I have NEVER managed to even begin to understand this stuff. There's the monitors, the computer, Photoshop, Lightroom and ACDSee and they all have to interract with one another and... help! Is ACDSee almost accurate? How can I make CS5 look like the images I see in Lightroom and ACDSee? Should I? Then there's the printer I use online to consider. HELP! Can anyone offer any help? All the options under color settings both on CS3 and CS5 are identical and I even tried saving the ones from CS3 and loading them into CS5, just in case, to no avail.
    Can anyone offer any help? I also uploaded screenshots of the different settings in ACDSee and in CS5 and CS3 in case that helps. Is it something to do with the Proof Setup settings? They are both set to Working CMYK. Oh, my aching head!
    Thanks a lot for any help anyone can offer!
    Phil

    Thanks. I think I DO understand the basics of color management. I have attempted to callibrate my monitors many times and even paid someone to do it once all to no avail. I end up with washed out renderings which are different on each of my monitors and look NOTHING like the prints I get. All I'm trying to ascertain is why CS5 would render so entirely differently than ACDSee, Lightroom and even CS3. Even XPlorer2 agrees with everything other than CS5! And yet all the settings in CS5 SEEM to be the same as in CS3 so what else could be causing the washed out look? I'm also noticing CS5 is sometimes showing things marginally out of focus compared to other apps but I won't even get ionto that!
    Thanks, and if anyone else has any thoughts on why this would be I'd appreciate it.

  • HT4059 When I try to load an ePub book it says out of memory.  How many books can you read at one time?

    When I try to load a second book it says out of memory.  How many books can be read at one time?

    Thank you so much...
    1. I don't have that fat format I checked as I saw this on another answer...BUT...you are right the project was very bloated and I made a new project with the sequence and moved a bunch of projects off to an outside drive and things are flying again...this effect "twirl" was on three clips and this seemed to be creating a problem along with it being a bloated project. Don't know why this effect renders easily then the next second doesn't it's on three clips on the entire project and one or another might not render all of a sudden.
    2. I understand what you said about the timeline export...I decided to export the sequence without the matte it was nested in and that sequence did have the chapter markers on the timeline and they again didn't export??? I'll look tomorrow at this it makes no sense if what you're saying is how to do it...the final cut pro book said they should have showed up if I export from the browser and that didn't work either.
    3. I then matted that output and rendered it to output but I am worried this will degrade and compress the sequence more than I want by outputting the same sequence with current settings twice???...the couple of outputs I could make nested looked very good as this was one render...however, I tried doing a quicktime "current settings" with the dvd studio pro info still trying to export chapter markers and maybe it's my imagination but the output didn't look as sharp as just an output with just chapter markers???
    r. I did look at the final cut pro book and it says that mpeg 2 movies will not read chapter markers anyway if you create one in compressor...if this is true it makes no difference if the quicktime output isn't having chapter markers show up. I assume when I go to author though I can put an mpeg 2 movie into dvd studio pro and create chapter markers at that point!! It seems weird it says it can do it with an mpeg 1 but not an mpeg 2 when everyone is using that for dvds.

  • I have changed my apple I'd primary email account yet when I try to buy things from the App Store it keeps showing the previous email address- can any one advise why?

    I have changed my apple I'd primary email account and saved the changes yet when I try to buy from the App Store it still lists the old email address- can anyone advise how to fix this?

    What id shows at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app ? If it's the old email address that you had on your account then try tapping on it and log out of your account and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad.

  • I have done everything apple suggests, and my ipod still isn't working

    I was given a 1st generation shuffle from my brother and have been using it for about a year now until apple came out with itunes 8.1. Then things went bad....really bad. First it started playing songs in shuffle order even though I had shuffle off. After this, I had problems with new songs downloaded on the shuffle because they wouldn't play, and my song list was shortened. After this I tried restoring my shuffle and it couldn't restore it. It never finished restoring cause it came up with an error of 1419. I downloaded the apple reset utility program and all it does when I run this, is tell me an error, tell me it can't obtain information, or it freezes when I run that program. The one thing the program does do, it makes the i pod status light blink orange compared to it doing nothing at all. I have done everything else on the support page, i mean everything, and nothing has worked. I even got a new 1st generation shuffle from my brother and it ended up doing the same thing exact thing!!! Please someone tell me something that works!!

    Is this shuffle white with a USB plug on one end. That's the 1st gen shuffle. If it has a clip with a colorful (or silver) metal case, that's a 2nd gen shuffle.
    Since these two shuffles BOTH have this problem on your computer, ask your brother if he can use Restore in iTunes on these shuffles (or use the iPod Reset Utility). If it works on his computer, there is something odd happening on your computer.
    If you think a combination of iTunes 8.1 and something about your computer is causing this problem, remove iTunes 8.1. Then install iTunes 8.0
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/iTunes8_0_2_forWindows
    Then see if you can get the shuffle to work or restore.

  • I ran the update for the newest version of Numbers.  Now I cannot open some of my spreadsheets.  When I try I get a drop down box that says I need a newer version of Numbers!!!!  I have just installed the newest Numbers update.  Any suggestions?

    I ran the latest Numbers update and now I cannot open several of the Numbers files I created and saved previously.  When I try, a box appears that says I need to update to a newer version of Numbers.  I ALREADY updated to the newest version!!!!  Any suggestions?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    When you upgraded Numbers to the most recent version, the Mac App Store kept the old version in case you need it in the future. Your problem is that you are opening the old version by mistake instead of the new one.
    To fix this, open a Finder window, select Applications in the sidebar and drag the new Numbers version (the one with the new icon) to the Dock. By doing this, you can access to the new Numbers version easily, so you will not open the old version by mistake anymore. Also, I recommend you to open the documents after opening Numbers. The same applies for all other iWork applications.
    If you want, you can remove the old Numbers version, but some users have complained about the lack of features of the new Numbers version. Apple will add more features in the future. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6049?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

  • App Store claims update for app I never purchased and then switches me to a russian account. When I try to buy with my account i get an unknown error. How can I fix this?

    When I opened the Mac App Store on my White MacBook(2010 model running Lion), it told me I had an update for Angry Birds. I never bought the original Angry Birds for Mac, so I decided I'd buy it because I enjoyed it on the iPad. When I clicked buy, it had my email switched to a russian one and when I tried to buy the app on my account, I got an unknown error (4). I can buy other items on my account, but when I try Angry Birds it always returns the error. Any ideas on how to fix it? Thanks in advance!
    edit: Sorry! Found the answer on a related discussion.

    i have this too -- it's from trying to install pirated sw. I have no idea how to fix it -- even trying to buy a legot copy gives an error in the app store.

  • When I try to download a news publication it appears nothing happens. This started a week ago after I updated my browser. Can you offer any help to rectify this situation?

    I receive a newspaper link biweekly and was always able to download the material and read it at leisure. I recently updated to the latest version of firefox and since then I am not able to get the publication. A widow shows that the information is being received from the host. At a short time the window disappears but I do not see the publication.

    @sanjampet: I have already read the link you provided and none of the solutions work, which is why I posted here.
    Safe mode just doesn't activate. I hold shift for as long as possible until eventually I get the prohibited symbol. When I hold shift I see the apple logo and loading icon and then eventually prohibited symbol, its as if I wasn't holding shift at all, which makes me wonder if the shortcut is even correct? And I know its not a problem with my keyboard or my timing of pushing shift because holding alt/option works as usual.
    Holding C to load from the installs disc doesn't work either, which eliminates all the solutions based on that. Its the same as safe mode - I hold the button until I eventually get prohibited symbol.
    I also tried selecting my Mac hd via holding alt key - same result: prohibited symbol.
    I also tried selecting my installs disc via holding alt key and a strange thing happens: I see the apple logo and loading wheel but this time it is stuck on the apple logo and loading spin thing for about 20 minutes while there is lots of noise and activity coming from the CD drive..
    I also tried resetting the NVRAM/PRAM, which DID seem to have an affect (screen was brighter + startup sound was louder) but I still see the prohibited symbol like all the other times.
    I'm yet to be able to get past the prohibited symbol, the only way around it so far is to load the windows partition if my HD.
