Why does my I-Phone 4 tell me that it can't back up onto i-Cloud as it has run out of storage space, but when I look at i-Cloud storage it tells me I have 4.7GB out of 5GB available?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Have you checked how much space the backup will need.

Local Storage on your Device is not the same as iCloud Storage.

Why does my iPhone (3GS) show that it has 9 podcasts (true) whilst my PC shows only 2 (not true) of them.

Because you have 4,400 unread emails.

I can't download an app as it says there is insufficient space but when I look on settings there is more than 2GB storage available and the app is only 1

I can't download an app as it says there is insufficient space but when I look on settings there is more than 2GB storage available and the app is only 1

An app can need twice the quoted space just during the installation. That could be the problem. It's easy enough to offload some stuff for the insyallation then sync it back.

My phone keeps resetting and then shows the icon to plug into itunes but when i do itunes tells me that it can't connect to my phone because it has a passcode and wants me to unlock it to connect. My phone only gives me the option to make emergency calls.

My phone started resetting today over and over and then shows the icon to plug into itunes. When I tried plugging in, a message pops up saying that itunes can't connect because my phone has a passcode and i need to unlock it to connect. my phone won't let me do anything more than make an emergency call. it wont give me the option to enter my passcode to unlock the phone. What can I do?

After a visit to the apple store, they were able to get through my pass code but unfortunately I found out that is was a problem with the logic board. Since Apple only wants to sell and not fix, I was able to locate an iphone repair near me that deals with logic boards and they are currently working on it right now. i should be getting it back soon. Im not sure if the problem you are experiencing is the same as i went through but it does sound like it may be also a hardware issue and would suggest searching online for an iphone repair place that can diagnose what exactly is wrong. Hope this helps.

Why does iTunes delete my library every time I turn my computer on? All my music is still on my computer but when I open iTunes it comes up with the scan media page. I have to redo my playlists and it takes forever. Can someone help??

Every time I turn my computer on and open iTunes all my music is gone, if comes up with the scan media page, all my playlists have been deleted. All my music is still on the computer and in the files. I don't know why it keeps doing this, it's really annoying as I have loads of music and then have to do my playlists again just to sync my phone. Can someone please help??

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be copied and renamed asiTunes Library.itl to restore the library to an earlier state. Look for a recent .tmp file that is similar in size to the .itl files in the Previous iTunes Libraries folder. If it has happened repeatedly you may want the earliest such file generated since the last iTunes upgrade.
If applicable, see iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. Even if you have the media you can use selected steps from the tip to ensure that you don't lose settings and data from the device as a result of switching libraries.
A large number of users with this issue have been using AVG Anti-Virus which appears to be implicated in the problem. AVG have released a patch which might help, so if you use AVG then I would update that first. I'd also be interested to know which AV you use in case others may cause similar issues. I recommend excluding the iTunes folder from any real-time and scheduled AV scanning process. Another possible cause could be automatic backup tools.

I want to get Madden 12 at the app store and the size is 303 MB, when i try to buy it said there is not enough space but when i look at settings usage it says i have 579 MB available. What do I do????????

I want to get Madden NFL 12 at the app store. The app size is 303 MB. When i try to buy it it says thier is not enough space to download it, but when i go to settings it says thier is 579 MB available Space left.

To download an install an app requires free space that is between two and three times the download file size. You ned to free up more storage space.

I am so disappointed that with the new IOS7 I have lost my yellow note pad that was different from any other harsh white background that gives me headaches...please tell me that I can go back to what I was comfortable with?

Is anyone else feeling the same way....why did you fix something that wasn't broken? I purchased an expensive ipad and liked the features, with one click I accepted the IOS7 operating system, not being informed of what I would lose, if I chose to upgrade...I was only informed about those things that would work better...not impressed with the new floating look to the screen, makes me feel light headed, bringing on a migraine...anyone else having problems with the new system?

Agree, the new notes is useless. If I wanted a blank background, with a washed out looking font I would use my email, except the font in my email is dark enough to read easily in the grocery.
Interesting to note how awkward the top menu is in iOS7 on a message board, it constantly drops down when selecting text.

HT201210 after a software update & then a restore why does my iphone say"network lost, you can select a different one in settings"?

?

Have you bothered to contact your carrier to see if there is a tower outage/problem in the area? Believe it or not, these things do happen.

Why does my iphone 4s get so hot on the back

A lot of times when I'm using my phone to surf the web it seems to get hot on the back. Also there are times when the phone screen doesn't react to pinch and other gestures. Do I need to do something particular to fix these problems?

If you have a weak cellular signal the phone must increase its output power to maintain a connection to the tower. The difference can be very large; for example, with 5 bars the phone transmits with 50 milliwatts; with 1 bar it goes up to 600 milliwatts.

I have setup iCloud on my PC (running Windows 7 64-bit) but when I attempt to setup my iPhone 3GS and iPad, both running 5.0.1, I receive an incorrect user name and/or password error message even though they are the correct ones.

After receiving the error message, the iPhone locks up while the message " veriffying" is displayed.

Look here.

I install and run the firefox upgrade 11, but when the brower is reopened, it still tell me to up grade. Why?

see question

Hi mgolfhack,
You may see that message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page. That page is no longer being maintained by Google.
You should try changing your home page to:
about:home
If you don't know how to change the home page, you should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]].
Hopefully this helps

I have had an apple iPad 2 for less than a year and I have less than 2 pages of apps but when I look at the space meter the "other" section is taking up 6.7 Gb out of 16 Gb on it. I have researched this on the Internet and no one seems to know what it is.

I have had an apple iPad 2 (16 Gb) for less than a year with less than two pages of apps, but when I look at the bar which tells you how much space you have used, it says I have 6.7 Gb worth of "other" space used. I am unable to download any apps on account of all the space used. I have researched this problem and I can't seem to find an explanation. If anyone knows the solution or has spoken to apple about this please help if you can. Thank you!

The long and short of it is that you will probably have to restore your iPad. That giant "other" space is a sign of a corrupt file from a sync, I am pretty sure, but I am quite sure that the way to resolve it is to restore the iPad.
You can search the discussion site for similar threads but I think you will find that a restore is the way to correct it. Read this one.

How do I disable the flipping back and forth between pages with PgUp and PgDn? Please tell me that I can!

As of Firefox 4, it seems to have been decided that PgUp and PgDn are now buttons with which you flip back and forth between pages. To me, this essentially means almost losing valuable information because I actually use those to go up and down pages, so I wonder; How do I disable this new and utterly inconvenient feature?
Please tell me that I can!

In your system details, I see this plug installed: ''Macromedia Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 8.0''
You also appear to have a later one, though still out of date installed namely, ''Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 11.5 ''
First of all, click the orange Firefox button, go to Add-ons, then Plugins and disable the Macromedia version.
Then go to http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/ and update the other one.
If the problem persists afterwards, try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.
