You can try resetting your iPad and iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • I lost my handset and now have a replacement but when I try to backup from icloud I get a message saying 'cannot Load Backups' Can anyone help?

    I lost my handset (iphone 4s) and now have a replacement but when I try to restore from icloud I get a message saying 'cannot load backups'. Can anyone help?

    Unless you've tried to install an older version of iTunes that message likely indicates a corrupt library file. See Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash...

    I have the old machine backed up onto an external firewire disk but can't hook that up to the new imac as I'm waiting for delivery of a firewire 400/800 adaptor - therefore starting the old machine up as a slave is also subject to the same delay.
    I was hoping there might be some way to create a network between the 2 machines (and 2 different versions of the OS) to be able to transfer data across immediately but perhaps I'll just have to wait for my firewire adaptor to arrive.
    I don't understand why you're buying a Firewire adaptor, since AFAIK both of your computers have Firewire already built in.
    All you need is a firewire cable. Connect the Firewire socket on the old machine to the Firewire socket on your new iMac.
    Then start the old machine in Target Mode (i.e. by holding down the T key on its keyboard, while it's starting up, until you see the three-legged T icon hopping around the screen of the old machine.)
    At that point you will also see a new icon on the screen of your new iMac. This is the hard drive of your old machine.  By clicking on it you can navigate through it any way you like, just as you would normally.
    Just drag across whatever you want from the old computer to the new one. This will leave everything on the old computer untouched.
    - or use Migration Assistant but in my experience, Migration Assistant isn't very reliable and fails to migrate large amounts of stuff.

  • Cleartune has updates available, but I keep getting a message saying "cannot connect to Itunes store"  all other updates work just fine?  The one app I paid for is the one that for some reason will not work.  How can I upgrade without buying it again?

    I loaded cleartune a while back, there are upgrades/updates available, which I'm trying to load.  When I choose update, it asks for my password, which I provide and I get a message saying "cannot connect to Itunes store"  I have many other apps I've loaded and upgraded just fine.  However this one, the one I actually wanted bad enough to pay for, is wanting me to delete it and buy another copy.  How can I update Cleartune without buying it again? 

    Hi all,
    This is a very interesting situation. I did try to update one of my apps within itunes as was suggested. That worked !!
    But then I noticed that I had 2 different logins that I must have created over the years. I almost forgot. I have a apple ID and an AOL ID. It seems that I purchased (actually they are all free) some apps with one ID and other apps with the other ID. I must have done this by accident.
    So when I log out of one of the IDs on my Touch and then log in with the other ID, I can update the apps.
    It seems that something changed on Apple's servers. It seems that until recently I was able to update free apps regardless of what ID I originally bought them with. Now it seems that's not the case. Apple must check this now.
    Now that I know what the issue is, I'll make sure I use one ID all the time.
    Thanks,
    Steve

  • I'm trying to download an app on the "new i pad" from the app store, but I get a message saying "cannot connect to the i tunes store.  My wireless network is up and running.  What gives?

    I'm trying to download an app from app store but get a message saying cannot connect to i tunes store--my wireless network  is working.  What gives?

    This issue is cropping up everywhere on the iPad site, leading me to believe that it is an iTunes server glitch. I am able to connect without issue in the northeast U.S.
    You can try this ....
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Sign in and try again.

    Yes- it is a Mac. I went through adobes system requirements and re- downloaded supportive software. The notice seems to happen near the end of the down load with the messages above. I'll look into your suggestion. Thank you- appreciated.

  • Why has my iPod Touch stopped connecting to my WiFi?

    Why has my iPod Touch stopped connecting to my WiFi?
    It's been fine for the past 2 years but today, it's stopped. It was working this morning...
    According to settings it has connected but I cannot access anything online and the internet icon is missing.
    WiFi is working on my phone & laptop so it doesn't appear to be a problem with the router. Also I've just synced my iPod with iTunes, reset and restarted - still no luck.
    Any suggstions?
    Thanks

    Did you already try to reset the network settings in Settings/General/Reset?

  • How do I fix the compatibility issue between my iPhone 4S with iOS 7 and my Pioneer car stereo? There was no problem with iOS 6, but now I get a message saying "this device is not compatible" and so I can't use Netflix for example. How do I fix it?

    This is a typical response from the manufacturer. Did you try the fix that Lawrence mentioned. When Apple or any other phone manufacturer update phone software, they have the latest Bluetooth installed. It is usually the problem with the radio manufacturer that they devices are using the older Bluetooth protocols. You can try this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3581 and see if anything there helps, but generally it requires the radio manufacturer to update their firmware.

  • I cannot upload an exel file from lap top to numbers in iPad, message says file not supported.   Any help please?

    I cannot upload an exel file from lap top to numbers in iPad, message says file not supported.   Any help please?

    File Sharing lets you transfer files between iPad and your computer. You can share files created with a compatible app and saved in a supported format.
    Apps that support file sharing appear in the File Sharing Apps list in iTunes. For each app, the Files list shows the documents that are on iPad. See the app’s documentation for how it shares files; not all apps support this feature.
    Connect iPad to your computer.
    In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
    In the File Sharing section, select an app from the list on the left.
    On the right, select the file you want to transfer, then click “Save to” and choose a destination on your computer.
    Transfer a file from your computer to iPad:
    Connect iPad to your computer.
    In iTunes, select iPad in the Devices list, then click Apps at the top of the screen.
    In the File Sharing section, click Add.
    Select a file, then click Choose (Mac) or OK (PC).
    The file is transferred to your device and can be opened using an app that supports that file type. To transfer more than one file, select each additional file.
    Delete a file from iPad: Select the file in the Files list, then tap Delete.
    or use dropbox

  • I purchased photoshop cc a few weeks ago, now I get the message that my trial is over. I'm stuck is there a solution?

    I purchased photoshop cc a few weeks ago, now I get the message that my trial is over. I'm stuck is there a solution?

    Refer Creative Cloud applications unexpectedly revert to trial mode | CS6, CCM
    If you use Photoshop at all, you may need to install the latest update to resolve this issue. See this blog post for more information:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2013/01/photoshop-13-0-413-1-2-updat es-now-available.html
    If you do not have Photoshop, then try the solution that others have mentioned previously:
    Open the Adobe Application Manager (AAM).
    If applicable, let AAM complete any automatic updates and restart itself.
    Sign in with your Adobe ID. (Optionally, you can close AAM at this point.)
    Open a CS6 application (e.g. InDesign CC).
    If prompted (e.g. you get the trial screen), click "License This Software" and sign in with your Adobe ID.
    OR
        Follow the below steps:
    1. Close all the Adobe Applications. Logout from creative.adobe.com and re-login.
    2. Once you launch the software and when you get the error saying the the trial version has expired, you will have an option saying "License this software".
    3. Select this option and enter your credentials and click next.
    4. You must be able to activate the software then.
    Refer to: Purchased student CC but CC still says it's a free trial. How do I upgrade my account to purchased and not trial?
    I'm a Creative Cloud member, why is my app launching as a trial? Mac OS 10.7.4

  • Hi, back ups to my TC suddenly won't work saying there's a problem with network username/password.  Any help greatly appreciated!

    I've deselected the disc, reselected it & re-entered the password 3 times now with no luck.
    Any help greatly appreciated!

    It sounds like you have much more issues than simply the TC..
    I can suggest or have suggested the workaround to the TC problem.
    Did you try it??
    What happened if you did?
    Did you simply try the standard old reboot the TC.. ie yank out the power cord. count to 10.. plug in the power cord.
    That magically fixes lots of network issues.
    Mavericks has some major issues.. do you upgrade install.
    Let me strongly recommend a clean install.. if you haven't done it. Your issues with safari look like a corrupted install to me.. but I am not an eggs spurt in OS issues.. by any long stretch of the imagination.. post the issue over in the Mavericks area.
    But as an old computer support man.. (old should be emphasised) upgrade installation are anethma.. I have never seen them work 100% and that includes with Mac. Of course you cannot expect windows to work.. but things go wrong in every OS.. no matter how wonderful.
    Make sure you have a good TM backup .. clean install and migrate your documents back.. maybe reinstall software from scratch. Not easy but the only way.
