3G - IOS 4 locked up on backup, Instead restored. Not connecting to I tunes

Downloaded new ITunes. Tried to install IOS4. On installation, and after 12 hrs of not completing the backup, I followed advice on a forum and did a restore. Now IOS4 is installed and working ok with just a few of my apps. Notes and contacts are all ok but I can't sync with Itunes, to get a complete restore of all my apps... Some were expensive! What next?

I updated an iPod touch, an iPad 2, and an iPhone 4 to iOS 6, and all of them now will not connect to WiFi. They all give this wierd 404 error page from Apple and insist that I need to login to the network. Bad job testing the software Apple.

Reset device, reset network, renew lease, etc. None of them work.

Does the iPod work OK?
Does it charge when connect to the computer?
Does it appear in My Computer?
Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Compare with the iPod that does work/connect.
I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1

HT4623 I can't update my iphone 4s iOS 6.1.2, Message saying I'm not connected to internet but I am, why?

Every time I'm trying to update my 4s with iOS 6.1.2, keeps showing message that I'm not connect to Internet, but I am, anybody experiencing the same issue???? Help!

I was able to update my iPhone 4S to 6.1.1, BUT :: I could not update to 6.1.1. from my iPhone. I received the same message as everyone else saying that my iPhone was not connected to the Internet, which is was. (I was able to access my mail etc. via Internet.)
Instead I connected my iPhone to my computer via ITunes via the cable. I then downloaded the software on my computer and updated the iPhone from the computer. While I was downloading the software on to my computer, which is only connected to the Internet via ethernet, the same message as above appeared on my iPhone about not being connected to the Internet. I pressed cancel. The software continured to download on to the computer and then on the iPhone.

How can anyone see message on a locked iPad mini if it was not connected to wifi?

Hi,
My new iPad mini wifi was stolen 2 months ago in Spain. It was locked with 4 digit code. I immediatelly locked it through Find my iPhone, commanded erase and added info to call me with my mobile number.
In FMIP it says it's not connected and it's waiting to be erase but today I got a phone call from maroko from guy claiming he bought it and saw the message. i didn't get any icloud emails about my iPad though.
How it's possible he saw that when there is no info in iCloud that it was connected or unlocked? It's wifi only.
is there any way that ipad was connected to wifi without unlocking screen or maybe it was just connected to iTunes without unlocking the devide and that way iPad new it has been locked?
Why it didn't erase itself if it showed the info with mobile number?
Thanks

Backup and Restore not working or am I missing something??

I installed the Desktop Manager primarily to be able to save the info on my computer. Only problem is when I go to Backup and Restore the button that allows me to backup (or restore) is not highlighed so it's not allowing me that option. All it will allow me to access is the 'advanced' and 'options button' on the Backup and Restore window. I don't want to lose all my info again if the phone crashes so please HELP! And it took me about 10 tries before the Desktop Manager successfully loaded on my computer so not sure if the problem was in the installation but when I look at the Desktop Manage window it shows 'disabled' and also doesn't allow me to choose any of the options on the bar at the top. How do I enable this program?? When I tried loading the disk I got some message about now being able to run Adobe scripts so not sure if that might be part of the problem.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Just realized that I had the backup and restore window open when I wrote the above post and when I closed that the window for the Desktop Manager did allow me to access the toolbar at the top but the Desktop Manager is still disabled.

2 AnyConnect queries backup server and not connecting.

We are in the process of swapping over from the old IPSEC VPN client to AnyConnect for remote users.
A couple of questions,
1) With the IPSEC VPN client you could configure a Backup server. with AnyConnect there is not an option for this as far as I can see. Is there an option for this anywhere?
2) Sometimes AnyConnect will not connect, I have found the way round this is to access an Internet website first, once that comes up then AnyConnect will come up ok. Is there something I can do about this such as timeout,script a website location to try first within Any Connect?

Hi,
You can add multiple backup servers by editing the profile xml file or by using the Anyconnet profile editor.
What version of the Anyconnect client are you using? How do you connect to the Internet? Are you connecting via a proxy?
Thanks

Backup and restore not working.

Hello, I hope someone can help!
I backed-up my phone on 21-May as I had to send it for repairs.
I just got it back updated the Android software and now I am trying to restore my contacts.
Unfortunately, when I try to do so, using the PC Companion, it is switching to Xperia Transfer and then telling me...
"New Xperia back-up required
Your Sony Xperia Z (C6603) backup was made with an old Android version which is not compatible with this application.
Please update your old Xperia phone/tablet to the latest available Android version, then make a new backup of your old Xperia phone/tablet using the Backup & Restore application. [I tried this, it only restores photos and videos, won't restore contacts]
Once done, start this guide again and select your new backup."
As the phone was wiped when I sent it for repair, I cannot back it up!
How can I retrieve the contacts I backed-up last month? I am sure they are on the computer, but I can't get them back onto the phone...
Thanks,
Cormac

Successful backups but restore not possible?

Hello. I have a client with a SBS 2011 server who has been using Windows backup to back up to an external USB disk. They've probably done a couple dozen successful restores in the past two years. Today we tried to restore files but the only backup listed
is yesterday's. The GUI shows successful backups from the past week (and one failure). But Status -> All Backups -> View Details shows yesterday's successful backup, then jumps to last summer. I've tried to restore using the 'backup stored on another
location' option and browsed to the backup disk with the same result. The external disk is 2 TB with about 75% free space and has been the backup target since last summer. Maximum Shadow Copy Storage space on the external USB disk is UNBOUNDED. Why does the
backup show successful backups that cannot be restored?
Thanks.

HT4113 my ipad is locked i forgot password and its not connecting to itunes

my i pad is locked i forgot password , on screen its saying conact to itune but its not conactin its asking for password wich i forgot

Forgotten passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212

I can not connect to I tunes because it is locked with a passcode. How do I get around this?

My IPod charges and turns on but all it does is show the connector with the an arrow pointing at Itunes.

Connect the iPod to your syncing computer and restore via iTunes. If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter it, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restoreiPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

After update ios 7.1 Could not connect to App store

Last night i updated my ipod 5g to ios 7.1.But this morning i could not   connect to App store or iTunes Store.
Any solutions??

See what you did not yet do here
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

ITunes could not connect to the iPad because it is locked with a passcode.

I just bought a 64GB iPad in France on my journey. In Denmark we haven't got it yet, so there's no support for me yet...
In the french store they let me connect to iTunes on one of their Macs, so I could enter my new iPad. Then I played with it the rest of the day (didn't sync with my MacBook, cause it is being fixed) and also put in a pascode as I do with all my devices.
Next morning when I turned it on, it only showed the "connect to iTunes" symbol again, as if it was new. And when I connect to iTunes, iTunes only says "iTunes could not connect to the iPad because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your pascode on the iPad before it can be used with iTunes"...
And that is a contradiction! I can't do what the iPad says and i can't do what iTunes says...
Any ideas? Any ways to reset it other than by holding down both buttons at a time, because I have tried that already.
Hopefully someone can help me, I really want to be able to use my new iPad

Re: iTunes could not connect because it is locked with a passcode...?in response to rhmcolvin
I have a much easier possible solution!!
I had this same issue, trying to connect my new iPhone 5s to my Windows computer's iTunes. I was getting two different error messages:
- iTunes could not connect to the iphone because it is locked with a passcode
- iTunes could not connect to the iphone because the device timed out
I found this thread, but did not like the idea of having to restore my iPhone and losing all my settings/data on the phone. After trying several different things, I discovered that I had 5 devices listed under my "Devices" that were authorized, so the real issue was that I had reached my limit. I had several issues with my old iPhone 5s, and had to have it replaced twice. As a result, I had several old iPhones listed under devices that I no longer had. Erasing those solved the problem, and my new phone connected just fine to iTunes. To get rid of the old devices, you can:
Open iTunes
-> click on "store" in the upper left corner
     -> from the drop-down menu, select "view account"
          -> enter your password
               -> under "iTunes in the Cloud", click on the blue "Manage Devices >"
                    -> remove any old devices
This solved my problem. Hope it helps others as well!

My partner was trying to sync my phone to iTunes on our mac but instead restored all his phone details to my phone. It appears that I have lost everythin. I have no backup. How can I restore my iPhone.

My partner was trying to sync my phone to iTunes on our mac but instead restored all his phone details to my phone. It appears that I have lost everything. I have no backup. How can I restore my iPhone.

hmm thats kinda odd! how he managed to do that i dont know I thought the backups were locked per phone or phonenubmers serial. Anyhow IF you have no backup at all then you have lost everything. There is software out there that can recover data on the phone that was deleted.. I would personally click restore on Itunes and restart over. You cant get back what you lost that easy and software that does recover deleted data may not allways work 100% and costs money for the software..
Lesson learned huh..

HT4946 iTunes shows I have an encrypted backup under preferences. It's got the pad lock. When I click restore the encrypted backup is not an option. I've been test MDM products and may have caused this. How do I restore the encrypted backup.

iTunes shows I have an encrypted backup under preferences. It's got the pad lock. When I click restore the encrypted backup is not an option. I've been test MDM products and may have caused this. How do I restore the encrypted backup.

I just came here today to ask the same question.
I have an iPod Gen2 with version 4.2.1 iOS, and iTunes 11.0.2.26
My iPod Touch was running sluggish so I backed up and selected the "Encrypt local backup" to "back up account passwords used on my iPod".
I selected a password for this backup and restored my iPod Touch.
When I went to restore from backup, that encrypted backup is not available on the drop down list.
However, if I go to the top of ITunes and click "Edit", "Preferences" "Device", it shows the back up with the pad lock on it.
I thought I was being smart backing up with encryption to back up account passwords, but now I have lost everything.
So many people have the issue where it asks for a password when they never told iTunes to do an encrypted backup and here we are with an encrypted backup, and we know the password, but we don't get the option to restore from it.

IOS 5.0 update for iPod touch: restore from backup?

I downloaded the iOS 5.0 for iPod touch and everything got backed up beforehand. Apparently my backups are encrypted and a password is needed to use a backup and restore everything back. I don't know what that password is! Can anyone help?

If you don't know the password, you'll have to set it up "as new device" and start all over again without using the backup. If you did not encrypt your backup and this somehow happened after the update, try to put in one of the password you use on your device, for example the screen lock password or your iTunes account code.
There have been cases in the forum, where users were able to unlock the backup by trying this method, after their backup got encrypted during the update process for an unknown reason.
