I have just updated my iphone4 to iOS 5 and unable to restore my back up. The error message that appeared was "an error occurred while restoring this iPhone (-50). Can anyone tell me what the problem is?

. Can anyone tell me what the problem is?

I have had the same issue since day 1 of the ios5 installation.  I always hit "Cancel" and then the iPad eventually shows up again in iTunes.  Then a few hours later, I get the same message again.  Annoying, but I've not found a way around it.

  • I have a issue with my mac book pro. For some reason it won't stay powered on. I can't get past the apple loading logo. The battery is fully charged so it is not the problem. Can anyone tell me what the problem may be and how can i get it resolved?

    Well, we can't as we don't know what you consider as "more than enough". The built is quite heavy (like it can be 800mb) then it needs to be extracted to be installed before everything unneeded gets deleted...

  • I recently purchased a shutter release remote for my IPAD camera but the cord is only three feet long.  I purchased a 3 banded AV extension but it doesn't work.  Can anyone tell me what the correct extension cable is and where I can find one?  Thanks.

    I recently purchased a shutter release remote for my IPAD camera but the cord is only three feet long and I need an extension cord.  I purchased a 3 banded AV extension but it doesn't work.  I have been told that I need an extension cord that has AV and Mic to enable the remote shutter release to work with the extension cord.  Can anyone tell me what the correct extension cable is and where I can find one?  Thanks.

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • Can anyone tell me what the following error code means? 4MOT/2/40000004: BOOSTA-1235

    Fans are running permanantly and this is the error I get when running apple hardware test.

    SNS is a sensor error. The sensors read actual temperatures at several points inside the Mac chassis to decide when things are heating up, and which fan or fans speed up to improve cooling.
    Some of those sensrs are just a thermal-sensitive transistor mounted to a surface that conducts heat, and replacement does not run into big money. Disconnected wires are sometimes a possibility, especially if things were changed nearby, e.g., new heatsink.

    Play and shuffle just to the right of the playlist name and over to the right an icon to change the view, unless you are looking at a different set of thingys?. Might help to post which version of iTunes. I'm using version 11.0.2.

  • Can anyone tell me what the codes following dictionary entries are in the Australian English dictionary add-on?

    Most entries have codes after them, eg:
    abalone/MS
    abase/LDSG
    abaser/M
    abash/LGDhS
    abbreviate/nDGNS
    aberrantes
    aberration/SM
    Abilene/M
    abjure/yDNSnRG
    I can't establish a pattern for them...can anyone tell me what they are for, and if they can be deleted?

    That are flags to specify what kind of data that entry is and how it can be expanded with a prefix and suffix. The accompanying file *.aff define what those flags mean.

  • Can anyone tell me what the Speedometer-like icon associated with my USB drive partitions mean?

    This seems to be new to Yosemite.  Or at least I have never seen it until recently.
    In Disk Utility (and Carbon Copy Cloner - which I use to create a bootable copy of Macintosh HD to a USB HD partition) there is an icon that looks like a speedometer or perhaps a thermometer).  The needle is all the way to the right in the red portion of the icon, which looks rather ominous.
    It is easier to see in Carbon Copy Cloner than it is in Disk Utility, but exists in both applications.
    Can anyone tell me if this icon is coming from Yosemite (or perhaps Carbon Copy Cloner) and exactly what it means? 
    The drive passes S.M.A.R.T and general Disk Utility testing and appears to behave normally.  I do not believe the drive (a five year old 1 TB WD My Book Essentials 2.0) supports temperature monitoring so I doubt it is a thermometer.  And the icon does NOT appear next to the partition used for Time Machine backups but does appear next to the other two GUID, Mac OS Extended (Journaled) partitions.
    Thanks.

    ricfromkennewick,
    It comes from installing an enhancing utility made by Western Digital (WD), Its supposed to and I quote "improve the performance of the drive on a Mac Computer." It comes in a folder, possibly call extra, already on the drive when you get it. If you go to http://support.wdc.com/product/download.asp?level1=1&lang=en and find your drive you can pull up the specific user guide to learn more.
    Hope that helps,

  • Can anyone tell me what the Wizard is doing when I run the Index Wizard?

    I am running RH8, Windows 7 and generating WebHelp.
    The Wizard seems to be picking up the names of topics and making them keywords. Some of my topic names have no spaces in them and that’s the way they come into the Index. So, I assume I have to name all of my topics so that they come into the index correctly. Is that right?
    I also seem to be getting HTML terms in my index. Some of it looks like formatting. What is happening there?
    When the index is created by the wizard and I look at the Index pod I see the index keywords on the top of the pod. Some of the topics are in bold and some are not. The ones in bold do not have an entry in the bottom of the pod in the Topics for: area. These do not display when the help is generated. The unbolded items have an entry in the bottom of the pod in the Topics for: area. These items display when the project is generated. So, what’s happening here? Why are some topics bold and others not?
    If you can point me to some Index info I’d be grateful. Yes, I wish I could take a class but that’s not likely to happen in this economy.
    But this forum has the best people. I’d be dead without it.
    Thanks.

  • Can anyone tell me what the "action cannot be completed"  upon startup means?

    The drive where my lightroom catalogs crashed.  I recovered my catalog to another drive.  But when I try to start lightroom, or open any catalog, now it gives me the following error.  After a few minutes, the retry will work.

  • I seem to have used all my iCloud storage 15gb but I'm not sure I'm managing this wisely. Can anyone tell me what to do

    I recently upgraded to 15gb of iCloud storage. Before I knew it it's full again and sometimes I'm trying to take a photo or video something and it won't work because of storage issues. Could someon advise me on how to manage all the devices to iCloud. What should be up there? We have an iMac, iPad, 2 x iPhone 3 & iPhone 4. The kids have loads of apps not sure if this is a problem. Help anyone.

    You can read this and see if it is of any help to you.
    iCloud: Managing your iCloud Storage
    My personal opinion is use the Mac for the backups and only rely on iCloud as your secondary backup. Transfer all of your personal videos onto your Mac - import them using iPhoto. Transfer any purchased movies into iTunes using the Transfer Purchase feature.
    Anything that you purchased from iTunes, or the App Store do not count against the 15GB of storage that you have. However, the data in apps will count against that amount of space. If the kids have lots of games that could be eating up space, that can be a bit of an issue. Too many old email messages can be removed. you have to decide how you want to manage the storage. What is important to keep and what you can remove.

    You don't have that problem when you use iTunes on your Mac - unless of course your hard drive is ready to burst at the seams becuase the computer is full as well!

  • Can anyone tell me what this string is in the server permissions?

    Can anyone tell me what the character sting is third from the top?
    This is taken from the server app < select the server < storage < then edit permissions.
    I feel like this is something simple, but all of my searches have turned up nothing.
    Any insight would be greatly appreciated,

    I have recently deleted a user.
    Can I remove them from the ACL with no effect to the system?
    Is there a more efficient way to do that rather then by each individual folder and file?
    Thank you,
