I-phone 5 crashed durning software update.  Now won't accept backup password.

Just tried to update software on i-phone 5.  A backup was made.  Something crashed durning update and my only option to move forward was to restore the phone to the original settings.  Now it won't accept my password to reload the backup; however, the password works elsewhere.

Boot from your system install DVD, run Disk First Aid from your Disk Utility and repair your permissions.

  • Macbook crashed after software update and won't reboot!

    I have installed the latest updates on my 2.16Ghz, 10.5 Leopard, 1Gb MacBook through the software updater. There were 10 new udates inluding iTunes, Macbook security update and some for logic Pro.
    The machine crashed with the 'hold the power button' type message which i did! after switching the machine back on, it boots into the Mac OSX setup assistant, so i assume i have lost my data? However, even if i enter all my details and complete the assistant, after clicking 'done', the assistant runs again!!!
    I have applecare but they're now closed so i thought i'd see if anyone can help me out as i need it up and running asap.
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • My iphone would randomly power up and down after latest software update. now won't power on at all.

    Anybody know why my iphone 5 would randomly power up and down after the lastest software upgrade, and now today, won't power on at all?  the screen is now randomly showing the apple icon, but won't power on.  This a fairly new phone. Any feedback is appreciated.

    Try this:
    Settings>General>Accessibility>Reduce Motion>On
    My software upgrade set this to off.
    Hope it works.

  • My MacBook pro did a firmware update now will not accept my password

    My Skype account was hacked so I changed the password for my computer too I did a firmware update the computer started up and went to a black screen asking for my password it does not accept the new or old passwords. I have tried resetting the password with the snow leopard install disc but it will not recognise it and ejects. Please help

    Try image capture (in your applications folder) - or the finder - if neither of these see the card uyou need to try a USB card reader - once you get yoru photos off use the camera format command to erase and reformat the card
    a best practice to is to never have any computer program (including iPhoto) delete the photos from the card but to import the photos and keep them and then after at least one successful backup cycle has completed and then reformat the card --  I use three very large (32 GB) cards in rotation so I do not reformat for typically a year or more giving me one more long term backup of my photos

  • Changed Apple ID now mobile phone won't accept the password

    I changed my Apple ID using my laptop.  I have synched my phone since then, but somehow my phone now won't accept my password.  I'm trying to download an app and it brings up the old apple ID and then says my password was entered incorrectly.  My password is not incorrect and I am able to get into my apple account via my laptop.  What can I do? 

    On your Phone sign Out of your Account... close All open Apps.. and Perform a Reset...
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
    Now try it...

  • Software update now phone won't synch!!!

    Hi!
    Can anymore please help me!
    So i have the latest iPhone 5S, it stated it needed updating in software, so I updated it to iOS 7.1 today, but not via my itunes, it was just updated on the phone.
    The software updated without any problems at all, but when I have gone to link it to my Macbook, it has stated that it is unable to start synching, this has happened every time, has anyone else had problems with this!
    Thank You!!!!

    Actually, it would explain why the battery depletes. If the device is constantly trying to search for the network it will run the battery down quite quickly. I'm skeptical that the sim card will fix it since Verizon doesn't use a sim card in the US. The sim card is only for international roaming. I don't know what happened during the update but you may need to reload the OS on the device.
    And, "POS?" I've had my Z10 since launch day and love it.

  • HT5766 Where can I find the size of a download for a software update now?

    Hello,
    Where can I find the size of a download for a software update now?
    Since I upgraded to Mountain Lion (Mac OSX 10.8.3) this information is no longer available in software updates listing you get if you click on the Software Update menu item from the Apple menu.
    I found the download size (often hundreds of megabytes for an individual update and sometimes a set of updates might amount to a few gigabytes) to be very helpful, and now that it seems no longer available (I can't even see it on the web page I came to for more information, thinking the download size would surely be specified there), it is frustrating. My current example is iTunes 11.0.3
    I would greatly appreicate having this information back in the software updates listing, but since it is no longer available there, and I don't know where else to find it, if anybody can enlighten me to its whereabouts, I'd be grateful.
    Thanks and cheers!

  • I did software update, now java in Safari doesn't work.

    I ran software update, now Java in Safari and Firefox doesn't work. How do I fix it?

    I already tried that.
    I am running OS 10.6.8.
    I did a "normal" software update (under the Apple icon).. didn't update the OS to a higher level, it's still 10.6.8. But now certain websites tell me that Java is missing or not working. When I go to the Java site, they say that you can only download the newest Java for OS 7 or higher... that Java is automatically part of OS 6 and should have automatically updated when I do a Mac software update.
    Java used to work. Now that I've "updated" my Mac software, it doesn't work. And there's no way to download and install Java (according to them).
    It's a never ending circle with no solution.

  • My phone is saying "software update not available at this time" - is anyone else seeing this?

  • I updated my ipod and my computer crashed during the update now the apps that come with the ipod such as the app store and itunes are not on my ipod how do i fix this

    i updated my ipod and my computer crashed during the update now the apps that come with the ipod such as the app store and itunes are not on my ipod how do i fix this

    Connect your iPod to any computer with iTunes installed, highlight your device and try syncing the apps only. If it doesn't work might have to restore through iTunes. With the new iTunes and iCloud beta, you can have the iTunes list what apps are missing on your device but if you had previously purchased in the past and then have iTunes install them. You should always get in the habit of backing up your iPhone whenever you do any firmware/OS updating/upgrading or transferring over to new device. I really really really really hope you can get back at least some of your old info. I will tell you this, I have been kicking myself in the butt for not routinely backing up my iPhone when my beautiful special iPhone 4 came up missing and had to revert back to my 3GS. iPhone 5 will be released in a few months so I am holding off on purchasing a new iPhone til then, not that I did so without reservation and a little bit of iPhone 4 withdraw.

  • IPod touch attempted software upgrade now won't work

    Purchased used iPod touch 8gig USB connect to iTunes on my g4. Gave me a software update choice which I accepted, then after several attempts will no longer show in iTunes and keeps the USB to iTunes logo only on iPod. Any fix? I know the local apple store will want more than a new one. Any suggestions?

    Other users of 1G iPod (or any iPod with iOS 3.x) have experienced the same problem within the last couple of days. It appears that Apple updated the App store website to cause this problem. For the time being you just have to download them to your computer and sync them to your iPod.

  • Trying to update Flash... Won't accept my password.

    What is with this thing?  I'm downloading away when in Step 3 it all crashes to a halt when it won't accept my password.  How do I get past this ?  All I want to do is update Flash!

    Adobe software does not involve passwords.  It might be your computer requiring you to allow the processing to occur rather than something the update itself is doing.

  • Reset ipad, now won't accept my original passcode

    ITunes wasn't working so reset iPad, now won't accept my passcode. Is there a default I need to use? 

    If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
    iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    iOS- Understanding passcodes
         If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
         below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
         simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
         same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
    A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
    If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
    Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
    Follow these steps to restore your device:
         1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
         2. Connect your device to your computer.
         3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
         4. Select the Summary tab.
         5. Select the Restore option.
         6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
             option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
             necessary to create another.
         7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
             you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
         8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
             logo while starting up:
               After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
              to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
              iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
              you see "iPhone is activated."
         9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup.
    If you can not restore your device then you will need to go to recovery mode.
    Placing your device into recovery mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
         1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end
             of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
         2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the
             red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
              If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake
              and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake
              and Home buttons.
         3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device.
             The device should turn on. Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device
             charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then
             start with step 2 again.
         4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
             When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
         5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
         6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.
