After deleting everything including all paid apps I still don't have ability to update to iOS

Why can't I update my iphone4?

Are you connected to WiFi?  If that doesn't work connect to your iTunes computer and update that way.  You shouldn't have to delete anything to upgrade to the new iOS.

  • HT4972 if you backup everything prior to update to ISO 5 then click all buttons under summary after transferring all paid apps from iPad and then I do the update, won't the restore then  just put the old OS on it.  I am sooo lost when it says the way you

    Dear iPad Wizards,
    I am a beginner. I have an ipad and I need to upgrade to ISO 5 and I have purchased APPS on my iPad.  All the warning are scaring me.  Right now all of my sync square buttons are not turned on.  One of the warnings says I will loose my apps if I don't transfer them.  I did that (with another warning).  Then it said to back up the iPad, which I did. Heck all I want to do is upgrade my version correctly.  It then makes a statement that is something like when you are updating your version, make sure you have all your apps sync set normal, but when I do that it says you will loose all apps, but what the heck is normal (I say at this point).  So, since I am so lost and don't know what to do, do I just chuck it up to a learning experience because if I now restore everything after I do the update it seems that it will restore the old ISO...Am I correct.  I was just really thrown for a loop with that statement that is highlighted and I am still no where except backed up and apps purchased transfered to itunes.  Anybody else in the world ever have this happen to them?  I am truly thankful for anyone who might be able to help me.  I am thankful in advance if anyone understands this email.  Looking forward to someone who understand. 
    With Many Thanks

    To update to iOS 5.1.1, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases - you may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    You can then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button.

  • I recently changed my MacBook Pro password, and now I don't remember it.  Is there anyway to gain access to my mac without reinstalling or deleting everything that's on it?  I don't have the disk that came with it either.

    Hi.  I recently changed my MacBook Pro password, and now I don't recall what it is.  My hope is that I can somehow gain access without deleting everything currently on it.  I do not have the MAC disk that it came with.  Is there something I can do myself?  Should I take it to the MAC store?  Thanks in advance for your help. 

    It helps with this kind of question to state which system version you are using on the computer as the answer will vary.
    Mac OS X: Changing or resetting an account password - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1274 - resetting password on regular and administrator accounts if you have the installer disc (OSX 10.1-10.6.8) or AppleID (OSX 10.7-10.8) [Of course Apple has changed this document since I asaved the link so it is no longer useful for newer system versions. ]

    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list, or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
    Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
    Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
    You can re-download your available previous purchases.

  • My iPad music seems to be corrupt. Can I delete everything including the back up so I can re-load afresh from my iTunes library

    My iPad music seems to be corrupt. Can I delete everything including the back up so I can re-load afresh from my iTunes library
    In my iTunes library on my Macbook Air everything is OK but whenever I syncronise after an update a back up is made and then re-loaded.
    Can I delete this back up somehow and load direct from my iTunes Library ?

    Depending upon what problem that you are having with the Music app, have you tried closing the Music app via the iPad's taskbar and seeing if that helps ? From the home screen (i.e. not with the Music app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Music app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't help then you can delete your music from your iPad and re-sync it back to it. A device's backup doesn't contain the contents of the Music and Videos apps, when you do a restore it gets those from your computer's iTunes library and not from within the actual backup, so deleting the backup shouldn't make any difference to that - if you want to delete the iPad's backup from your Mac then go into iTunes > Preferences (command-comma), and on the Devices tab select the iPad backup and click the 'Delete Backup' button.

    I have updated my iPod and it deleted everything including my photos and I did not save my photos on any other device, How do I get them back?

    You didn't import all of your pics regularly?  Particularly before an update?
    They may very well be gone.
    You can try restoring from backup.

  • HT1933 I have tried everything including reseting my iPhone but still can't connect to App Store, and it's been over a week now! Totally annoyed now!!

    I have tried everything including reseting my iPhone5c but still can't connect to App Store, and it's been over a week now! Totally annoyed now!! I'm not sure if it started after I updated my iOS cos I was able to update a few other apps. I just can't connect to neither apps store nor iTunes! I need help else I'd boil this phone alive!

    Hello IamJudekow,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with connecting to the App Store on your iPhone 5c.  I found a couple of articles I recommend for this issue.
    First, I recommend using the steps in the section titled “Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch” in the following article (the article title refers to the iTunes Store, but the steps are relevant for the App Store as well):
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
    If the issue persists after following the steps in that section, I recommend continuing with the steps in the section titled “Isolate the issue: (Mac OS X, Windows, iOS)” in the article below:

  • Can I have 2 apple id simultaneously(one contains all paid apps, and other has all free apps) in the app store of my ipod touch 4G?

    See, I have 2 apple id one has all paid apps in it (this is my dad's id) and the other apple id has all free apps in it (this apple id is mine!) So, I just want to download a few paid apps using the first apple id (my dad's apple id) and then again switch back to my id...If I do this, will there be any issues related to licence as I have not paid for those apps from my id!!

    Apps are tied to the Apple ID, so you can't use apps from different Apple IDs on one device.
