Hi,
Thank you for your reply, I did go to my general settings, but for some odd reason I don't have a restrictions setting, or a reset setting. I thought I could reset all the setting to see if it could be that, but as I said there aren't any.
My husband also has the iPad 2, and also did the software update and hasn't had any problems at all. I took both iPad's and compared the settings thinking maybe there could be a setting that could have been changed when the update was done.

I had purchased and downloaded a tv series to my ipad. Then deleted it due to space constraints. Now I wanted to download it permanently to my MacBook but itunes does not show this purchases. It worked, however, for another series. What can I do?
Thanks for any help!You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad.

How can I use pdf pack to convert cubase documents (music scores) into pdfs? I am looking for the former possibility to install acrobat like a printer but i don't have this option with "pdf pack". Can you help?
Hi mariab,
What format are those music scores (I'm not familiar with cubase documents). But, it may be that Adobe PDF Pack doesn't support that format. In that case, Acrobat is the way to go. You can then print your files to PDF as you'd like. You're welcome to try Acrobat for free for 30 days to see whether it's going to work for you. If you decide it is, and you'd like to use it going forward, you could convert your PDF Pack subscription into an Acrobat subscription.
Best,

I'm overseas and need to sync my iphone with itunes but I don't have my computer. How can I sync it to my friends computer without losing my music and data?
Why do you need to sync your iPhone with iTunes - for what purpose?
You can transfer iTunes content and photos from one computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first with a warning message provided beforehand indicating this will occur. -
My mail application was working fine, I shut down and when I restarted it is asking me to set it up again. I dont want to loose any information on my mail and I had a lot of accounts on it. . what can I do?
I found all my files from my old account in the users folder but when I logged out there was no option to sign in on the old account, I'm guessing ill just have to start from scratch, which is fine as long as my old files aren't lost :) thanks for the help.
I'll explore more once I get my screen fixed and there might be a way to recover my old account :) -

What if the I-Phone states it is disabled connect to iTunes and when you don't have a computer available that is sync with phone, but are using a different computer. You can't trust the computer from your phone because it is locked. How do I gain access.

Okay, so my friends think it is funny to change the passcode on my iPhone.
Maybe you should get new friends.
I'm not sure that recovery mode works when you have to trust the computer, but did you try it?
If you can't update or restore your iOS device - Apple Support
If that won't work, perhaps you can use Find my iPhone from a computer in your iCloud.com account to erase the device.
iCloud: Erase your device - Apple Support
This has nothing to do with the Find my iPhone app being installed on the phone, but you do have to have Find my iPhone activated in the iCloud settings on the phone. -
After Firefox automatically updates to 5.0, I cannot open Firefox from the desktop icon, because it's apparently already open, yet I don't see it, and can't find it! It has effectively rendered the internet unusable for me until I uninstall Firefox, and then reinstall 4.0 without the update 5.0. This only lasts a few days before it automatically updates again.
A backup question is, in the event you have no idea what's going on, is how do I prevent 5.0 from automatically installing itself?First of all, are you aware that Spry is a dead technology and the code you're wrestling with is over 7 years old and will not work with mobile touchscreen devices (essential in today's web world)?
Even though it's included in older versions of Dreamweaver, Adobe formally abandoned Spry last year
http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/2012/08/update-on-adobe-spry-framework-availability.htm l'
Point being, few people will advise you to continue along this Spry path.

Movie hasnt downloaded for the past 3 days
Hello __sara__13,
From what I can gather from your post, it sounds as though your iTunes content isn't downloading to your comptuer. I have located an article that may help you. It contains some quick troubleshooting steps you can attempt:
iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
If your download was interrupted using your Mac or PC
Open iTunes.
Choose Store > Check for Available Downloads.
Type your account name and password if prompted.
If these steps didn't work for you, try the following steps to resolve issue.
Restart your iOS device or computer.
Check for updates for your Mac or PC and install any software updates. Also, update any security software you may have (anti-virus, anti-malware, firewall, and so on).
If using Wi-Fi for Internet access, try using a different Wi-Fi network when downloading. If you are connecting to a home network, try restarting your Wi-Fi router. Also, check for and install any firmware updates for your Wi-Fi router. (Refer to the manufacturer's website for your router to get information on updating its firmware.)
If you are using a Mac or PC, try using an Ethernet cable for wired Internet access instead of using Wi-Fi. If the issue is still unresolved and you're using iTunes for Windows, follow the steps to troubleshoot security software issues.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

Iphone update needs to connect to iTunes - I DON'T HAVE A COMPUTER WITH ITUNES?
My macbook gave up for good and I haven't purchased a new one yet, so I have been using an old PC (boo, I know). It doesn't have iTunes, so I have been using my iPhone4 for everything. My iphone has EVERYTHING stored on it (lots of songs, movies, books, etc) so I couldnt connect it to itunes on a new computer without using a third party app to download my stuff.
Okaaaaay so:
Tonight my iphone told me it was time to update, so I did. It worked fine until the picture came up on the screen telling me to connect my phone to itunes! This is a major problem for me because I do not have itunes on a computer, and if I download it, I would lose everything from my phone. As of right now I cannot use my phone because it is only the picture telling me to connect to itunes. The picture stays on for 30 seconds and then the phone will turn off, unless it is plugged in, then it will just stay on with the picture. What do I do??? I'm so paniced to lose everything from my phone and don't know what to do!

P.S. If the apple store needs my phone, can they open it without knowing my passcode? I have confidential stuff on there that I can't have anyone but a selected few see.Unfortunately, to fix your phone will require restoring it through iTunes. Since you have no backup of the data on your phone, there is nothing to restore back to your phone. Thus, your data is gone. You can either download iTunes to your computer & restore your phone or go to an Apple store & have the geniuses do the same. In either case, your only option will be to restore as a new device, erasing all data on your phone.

My iPad will not update or let me download Netflix, help?
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
