Any way to get out of connect to iTunes screen without restoring factory settings?

I accidentally started the newest update before backing up to iCloud.  Now I have the connect to iTunes screen and can't get around restoring to factory settings.  Is there anything I can do to bypass this step? Or undo upgrade?

Hi,
AS you have tagged this post with iOS 6.1.3 and iMessages it is difficult to tell whether you want the answer for iPhone or iPad.
iMessages can do groups or multi-person Conversations as long as you enter the names in the "To" field before your start typing the message.
Picture from Mac Version of Messages in an iMessages conversation (It shows Pics and Names)
If you mean in the Messages app an AIM Buddy list can do Groups chats.
Jabber Buddy lists vary according to the set up of the server involved.
You don't have to turn Off the iMessages ability.
You either start from a Buddy List or select Buddies in the Blue + icon drop down.

  • So Wat to do? Is there any way to get out as a single swf file from captivate.

    Dear friends,
    I am beginner in Adobe Captivate. We have a E-learning
    project. We are using Dockers as our LMS. Previously we were using
    Flash for all. Now we are trying Captivate for better and faster
    results. I have few swf files and i inserted al files in Captivate
    and i published. So instead of getting single output, am getting
    all the swfs, skin swf and html file. Html file is accessing all
    swfs and works. But it is not working in Dockers. Single swf will
    only work in Dockers. So Wat to do? Is there any way to get out as
    a single swf file from captivate. please Help mee.
    Thanks
    Flashlover

    If 'Dockers' cannot handle a .zip file as the content and
    instead
    requires a single, uncompressed content file, then it is not
    SCORM-compliant. The SCORM specification requires the LMS to
    handle a
    'pif' file (most common is .zip) which contains the lesson
    and the
    required manifest file. If Dockers doesn't support that then
    you can't
    do SCORM-compliant content.

    Hello hfb8,
    I would be be concerned too if I was not able to update my iPhone.  If you have not resolved the issue, I recommend following the steps in this article for an issue like this:

  • Is there any way under iOS7 to show the full home screen without the 3D band at the bottom reducing picture size?

    Is there any way under iOS7 to show the full home screen without the 3D band at the bottom reducing picture size? I want to see full pictures from my camera roll, not "special effects" from Apple..

    By 3D band are you referring to the Dock area where apps like Safari and Mail live? If so there is no way to remove this.

  • Nokia 1020 - any way to get an internet connection...

    There doesn't seem to be any way to get networking via BT.
    As a possibly separate issue, I can connect to my Nokia 808 over BT and they pair up OK, but the 1020 doesn't see any network, dial-up or any other service like that in the 808.
    Every windows laptop and even a win8.0 Lenovo tablet can connect to the 808 over BT, and all but win8.x devices can also do it over wifi (Joikuspot). Why can't the win8.1 Nokia phone do this?

    In that case, what methods *are* available on the 1020 for getting an internet connection, other than using
    - built-in GSM/3G/4G, or
    - built-in WIFI (infrastructure mode only)
    Can one do it via USB?
    Why is adhoc WIFI or bluetooth insecure, for a personal temporary internet connection, from another device, used typically while travelling and used to make sure that roaming costs are contained within the one device on which there is a decent roaming data package?
    Currently the only way I see is a 3G-WIFI modem (e.g. the E585) with a locally puchased data SIM inside it, but such deals are available only in some countries in Europe. They also tend to be really difficult to purchase e.g. in Greece you spend an hour or two in a phone shop, proving your identity with a passport and other documents.
    Was this done because the networks (who own the phone shops) insisted on it, as a condition of carrying the phone in their shops?

  • Any way to get Illustrator CS5 to display full screen mode like Photoshop?

    Is there any way to get Illustrator's screen modes to behave like Photoshop's screen modes?
    One of the things I like most about Photoshop is the way it toggles from standard screen mode to "full screen with menu bar" to just "full screen".
    For example, in Photoshop's standard mode, the window is no bigger than the size of the canvas. Why can't Illustrator do that?
    And, is there anyway to get Illustrator CS5 to display the full screen mode where the background outside the artboard or canvas is black instead of white. Working in Illustrator for long hours, it would much easier on my eyes if the surrounding background could be black like in Photoshop.
    Thanks very much in advance for any help,
    - Nick

    At the bottom of the Tool bar is a toggle button (F) which will change the Screen Mode.

  • Is there any way to get all "Explicit content" for iTunes Match?

    I am not sure if there is a way to get all explicit content on iTunes match.  It is really annoying when i want to hear a song and it is the clean version.  Any help?

    Guess you have your answer.  Maybe next time you'll read the User Guide and use the phone as recommended so this doesn't happen again.

  • Is there a way to get iPod off of connect to iTunes screen without computer?a

    ios 6.1.6
    forgot and tried too many times to login

    Use recovery mode
    You might need to use recovery mode to restore your device in these cases:
    iTunes doesn't recognize your device or says it's in recovery mode.
    You see the Apple logo onscreen for several minutes with no progress bar.
    You see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    Learn what to do if you see the progress bar onscreen for several minutes.To put your device into recovery mode, follow these steps:
    Turn off your device and leave it off.
    Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes.
    Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    When you see this screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 again.
    When your device is connected, iTunes will open. You'll see a message saying that iTunes has detected an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in recovery mode.
    Use iTunes to restore your device. Restoring in recovery mode will erase your device. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you might be able to restore from your backup.

  • My iPhone will not get past the connect to iTunes screen. I tried downloading iOS 8.0.2 and it downloaded but then cancelled because of an error. My iPhone will not do anything at all.

    So my iPhone 5s will not let me get past the connect to iTunes page.
    Thursday night I went to go download iOS 8.0.2 and it said I needed to connect to iTunes. So I plugged my cord into my laptop and it opened up iTunes and proceeded to tell me that I needed to update and restore. So I clicked it and it began updating. After over a day, and many different attempts, it finally downloaded all the way through and then said it was processing the item. After this, there was a said error and I had to restart the update. I haven't been able to use my phone at all and it will not let me get past the connect to iTunes page. Please help.

    I was able to restore my phone!!!
    I called Apple and they said there was nothing more I could do. I called my carrier Verizon and was able to get my computer to recognize my device after trying this-
    Solution:
    After trying EVERYTHING this is the ONLY thing that worked-
    I took the USB connector cable out of the USB port it was in, and tried another one on the otherside of my laptop and iTunes was able to discover my phone in recovery mode. My phone was reset and everything is fine ( thank gosh for backup copies!)

  • How to get around the connect to itunes screen

    i have an iphone 4s and when i plug it in to the wall it gets enough power to turn on but shows the symbol that it is running off wall power. so when i go through the start up steps it says connect to itunes. but when i plug it into my computer it starts to turn on then just dies. so is there a way to go around the connect to itunes phase.

    If it hasn't got iOS 5+ pre-installed then you will need to connect it to a computer's iTunes in order to activate it.

    Try and force your iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • I did a full system restore to my phone along with the new 7.0 update. Now I went to restore my phone setting back through Itunes and it goes through all the steps but when it is completed it wont get past the "Connect to Itunes" screen

    So what happens when you connect to iTunes?

  • Can't get past the "Connect to iTunes screen."

    So, earlier today I found my old iPhone 4. (Currently an iPhone 5 user) I connected it to my computer and attempted to update it to 1.6.3 (iTunes prompted to me to do so) - anyways, the ISPW downloaded and began installing. About half way through I got an error message, "iTunes encountered a problem" (I don't remember the exact wording)
    Anyways, my iPhone is stuck on the "Connect to iTunes" screen, I did what apple reccommended and tried to enter recoverey/DFU mode, but, everytime it just goes back to the "Connect to iTunes" screen. I've tried several times and nothing works.
    (yes, I am using the latest version of iTunes)
