After the IOS update for 3G iPhone, I am now no longer able to sync my phone to my iTunes library. How do I fix this?

I upgraded to the latest IOS update for iPhone 3G, and have since then not been able to sync my phone to my iTunes library. Can anyone help me fix this?

Hi, hoopsnut34.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
The most common cause for the screen not rotating would be the Screen Rotation Lock button is enabled. Here are the steps on how to disable this feature.

I upgraded to OS8 for my Iphone 5 and now I have no access to e-mail and several apps. How can I address this problem? For those who have an iphone 5 I recommend not upgrading to the new OS until these bugs are resolved.

I foolishly downloaded OS8 on my iPhone 4S. It not only greyed out my wifi button making it impossiblr to use wifi, but bluetooth connection doesn't work either. I reset the phone to factory settings but that did nothing apart from loose all my photos and contacts. OS 8 was still on after too. Apple say it is a problem but the download only brought the fact the hardware was faulty to the fore, but not being under warranty , the repair would cost £166 that I would have to pay. Totally unacceptable. If the problem was known and they knew it would cause problems on older models, why have it bob up on iTUNES for download.
Don;t download it guys, APPLE aren't admitting culpability and it will cost you a fortune to put right!!

Hi there Br0x,
You may want to try rebuilding the iTunes library as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the article below for more information.

I just updated to a new MacBook Pro. I transferred my ITunes along with most of my programs from my previous MacBook. I then tried to update my iPhone and iPad and was informed I cannot connect these devices to my iTunes. How do I fix this?

Perhaps you would post the exact message?
And when exactly did you receive this message?

Put it into DFU mode - hold the sleep/wake button and home button until the screen goes black (ignoring the slide to turn off slider). When the screen goes black release the sleep/wake button but hold the home button. Continue holding the home button for 10 seconds, then release it. The screen should stay black. Plug it into iTunes and it should come up with this message "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. It must be restored before use", that's when it is successfully in DFU mode. Now press the restore button in iTunes and it should run smoothly :)

My iPhone 4 does not allow me to sync wirelessly when plugged into itunes? How do I fix this? I am running leopard on a macbook pro. Could that be the issue?

I have updated my iphone software to ios5 and everything is working perfectly except for the wireless sync. When I plug my phone into my computer (I'm using a MacBook Pro running leopard) it does not give me the option to check the box in the summary section to sync wirelessly. Can anyone help? Please and thanks

Oh. Gosh. What's Windows got to do with anything? You're on Leopard, on a Mac.

Yes, I think most of us do understand what open source software is. It sounds as if you don't. Here's some information:
Open-source software (OSS) is computer software that is available in source code form: the source code and certain other rights normally reserved forcopyright holders are provided under an open-source license that permits users to study, change, improve and at times also to distribute the software.
Open source software is very often developed in a public, collaborative manner. Open-source software is the most prominent example of open-sourcedevelopment and often compared to (technically defined) user-generated content or (legally defined) open content movements.

Hello everybody, Im trying to update my ITunes on my MAC (laptop) to the newer version so I can then be able to update the latest updates for my Iphone-3G. I don’t require a complete reinstall just need to be able to update my itunes.
What I have tried so far is I had my MAC search for update’s and it said that I should update to (ITunes version 10 . 6 . 3 ) So I asked it to do the update but after 2hrs of waiting for it to download/update it then puts up a message saying the following- (In order to continue installation, please close the following application: ITunes).
When I tried to do this another message comes up that says- (The update ITunes can’t be installed. The following install step failed: run preupgrade script for Apple mobile device support. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.)
I have also tried to run the update while having closed ITunes before I even start the update but the same problem happens after waiting about 2hrs.
Some one that had the same problem said this might be happening in the older operating systems. But that does not make sense because surely Apple want customers who own a MAC and i-phone to still buy from iTunes.
My MAC is about 4-5years old. I have a i-phone.3G,
Can anybody help me please and Thank you?

Download iTunes using the tab at the top of this page. Then run the update with iTunes closed.

Thanks

Can you make a iOS update for older iphone's

Apple can you make a iOS update for older iphones's

Apple is not here.
We are all iphone users just like you.
Like all software on all devices/computer/tvs/dvds/cars/etc, the newest updates will not be compatible with older devices.
iphone 3g and earlier models have reached the end of the line.

I've downloaded the past 2 updates for my iphone 5s and now it keeps asking me to trust my own computer and it wont even connect to itunes!

I've downloaded the past 2 updates for my iphone 5s and now it keeps asking me to trust my own computer and it wont even connect to itunes! I am current with software on both my computer and my iphone 5s. Now when I hook it up to my computer it still keeps asking me if I trust the computer and it won't connect to Itunes?

DFU mode? How do I do that? So far the only thing I can do is hold down both buttons to power it on and nothing is on the screen and it wont reconize on my computer....
