After updating to IOS 7, my iphone won't connect to my Itunes

Alright, this is what's wrong. I have an iphone 4s, which has always been working perfectly, but I decided to update it to the IOS 7 when it became available.
Once I had updated, which took forever, it seemed to work just fine again although very different from what i was used to. No matter I thought, I'd get used to it.
Today I then plugged it into my 4 year old macbook (running OS X 10.5.8 and unable to update for some reason) and it said that my iphone couldn't sync with the itunes, that I needed to update to Itunes 1.11 or newer, but - and here's the kicker - the version of Itunes available on the apple site, won't work unless I have operating system OS X 10.6.8 or newer.
So basically, updating my iphone has made it much worse, has made my expensive macbook fairly useless, at least for updating my phone.
I'm just thankful that I haven't updated my Ipad yet, now knwoing that it won't work right after the update anyway.
Any suggestions or ideas as to what I can do? I really don't wanna go out and spend a fortune on a new laptop just so I can sync my itunes.
Hope someone can help

I Just found it on the apple site, it arrived on a cd a few days later and worked just fine again.
i would recommend backing everything up just in case. Better safe than sorry, trust me. I've lost so much when i didnt back up once when re-installing the system.
IT shoulldnt erase everything, bt it might, so back up just in case
should you loose everything, then i have some tips on moving stuff fromyour iphone/ipod to the computer

After updating to IOS 8, my phone won't recognize my TV.

After updating to IOS 8, my phone won't recognize my TV via AV cable.

Same problem here on four devices, two of which aren't even running iOS 7. App updates just disappear from the app store app and the app tells me all my apps are up to date when they aren't.
This problem fixed itself on the iPhone 4 this morning after I synced it with iTunes last night. My iPad 3 is now listing app updates, but it stalls when I try to download them, so I'm updating via iTunes now.
I suspect this is a server problem on Apple's end (I noticed iTunes match isn't working this morning either....). Try syncing your phone with iTunes in the meantime or updating each app individually through the purchased app list (just click on it and you can update on a per app basis).

Howdy syafiqahmad,
If your iMessage and FaceTime still hasn't activated by now, I would recommend you use this specific section of the following article as long as you verify you've done all the other troubleshooting from it for this issue:
If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime
If you're using an iPhone, contact your carrier to make sure that you can receive SMS messages.
Contact Apple Support.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Can't send iMessage after update to IOS 7 on iPhone 5

After I update to IOS 7 on iPhone 5 the iMessage function seems not working properly. when I trying to send iMassage the "sending" bar loads up to 90% (slowly) and then stops dead and doesn't move. It stays at that 90% mark until it either starts working, many minutes later, until I delete the message, until it goes to "sending failed" or whatever it says with the little red "!" it will not automatically send by text even the iMessage function is not working. This problem wasn't happened all the time but regularly. This problem happened when I update to IOS 7 on my iPhone 5 and also happened in my friends' iPhone 5 with IOS 7. After I restart everything will back to normal until it crashes again.
Anyone who get the same problem like me?

I found the same solution, resetting network settings. Sure we have to re-input Wi-Fi network passwords, but it's not a big deal. What is a big deal is that this solution is temporary -it works for a day or two and then the problem returns, for both me (iPhone 4, 7.0.2 Verizon) and my wife (iPhone 5, 7.0.2 AT&T). I've just reset my network settings for the 2nd time since installing iOS 7 on launch day and 7.0.2 on it's launch day.
C'mon Apple! A little help here? I really don't want to have to do this every few days.

After updating my iphone 4 with the ios 6 update. My iphone would no longer connect to my home wifi that is password protected. I know that I have the right password entered in. At work we have a free wifi connection that does not require a password and I can connect no problem to it. My ipod touch has no problem connecting to my home wifi. It is a 3rd gen ipod and does not have the ios 6 update on it. Please help!

I'm having the same issues. Started when I upgraded iphone 4S and ipad1 to 5.1.1. Wife's iphone 4g on 4.4.2 has been ok. I've forgot the network on both devices and restored the iphone, none of which changed the issue. I've upgraded to ios 6 on the iphone 4s, problem still persists.
One thing that will help for a time: go to your router and change the wireless control channel. When I first did this I got full connectivity for about 48 hours... and now the problem is back. I'm now changing the wireless control channel every 12 hours, which is a pain but at least keeps me connected. I've tried a few other solutions that are out there and that has been the best one so far.
to do this on a motorola router: type 192.168.0.1 in your address bar.
username: admin and password:motorola if you have not changed the factory defaults.
Click on the word "wireless" and look for the "control channel" field. This may be set to auto or to 1, try changing it to 6 or 11 (preferred) or any other channel.
The control channel can cause static in the wireless system IF there are several networks nearby that are on the default setup.
There is a fair bit of buzz about this issue out there, some other things I've seen:
This is a hardware issue. Go to the store and have your wifi antenna checked, some users reporting that they get free replacement devices.
Check against other wifi networks that require a password (this is next for me). Logon to those networks and surf until your wifi stops. If your wifi connects to the internet but stops responding, then this is a software (or hardware) issue and apple needs to step up. Some are claiming this to be the case.
IF you connect and stay connected/on the internet on another password protected wifi, then the issue is with your router. this is where things get cute.
Comcast may tell you to update your firmware. Motorola may tell you that your cable provider is the only one who can push through firmware updates. Comcast may tell you that you are not in an area that is being updated. It's unclear if they say that to all customers, or just those who have purchased cable modems and aren't renting them from comcast.
Good luck, more to come if I figure out anything else, and please post any solutions you may find.

After updating to iOS 5, my Iphone 4 is not reading my SIM Card. I went to ATT and got a brand new SIM Card, and it still hasn't worked. Can you help??

After updating my iphone 4 to iOS 5, it refused to read my att SIM Card. I went to the Apple store (Lennox Mall, Atlanta Georgia) for help, they told me that it was an Att problem, and needed me to get a brand new Sim Card from Att. I went to Att and replaced my SIM Card to a new one. I later returned to the Apple store, but the phone still didn't work. The apple techs blamed the att network, and stated I needed to go home and wait for 24-48 hrs, and retry the att network again, and hopefully the phone will work. The next option they gave me was to pay $200.00 to get a replacement because my phone was out of warranty.
So I basically I have a phone which has never been dropped, not abused, no water damage or what so ever. Prior to my IOS 5 update, it worked perfectly without any problems. Now, that its not working as a result of either Apple's or Att's fault, no one seems to be helping or standing behing their product. Both parties are blaming each other for the problem. Can someone help??

I've seen a number of reports of this on here. In most cases where people took their phones in to the Apple store, they were given a replacement, even if the phone was out of warranty.

After updating to iOS 7 my apps won't update automatically?

I've updated to iOS 7 on my ipad with retina display. After the update I saw that I had 12 updates for my apps. When I went to the App Store, they just disappeared. Any one know how to fix this without searching for each app and manually updating?

After updating to iOS 7 there is no app store icon or iTunes icon on my iPhone 4s.

I recently updated to iOS 7 and a few days leter I realise there is no appstore icon or iTunes icon.
I searched for them in spotlight but they were not there.
I even asked siri to open appstore but it said "you don't seem to have an app named appstore"
I use an iPhone 4s.

Figured it out. I couldn't find mine anywhere! But apperantly I had turned it af in restrictions. When I turned it back on the app was back!
Good luck!
