  • HT4061 I have tried for 3 days now to restore my iPhone 4, because someone changed my password, and it is impossible. I tried contacting Apple, but need my serial number to even begin the process of chatting with them.  How do I contact Apple, or get my S

    Someone changed my password for my iPhone 4. I have attempted to restore my device now for 3 days, continually being hooked up to the computer, continually having to restart, continually having to power off and then place the device in DFU mode.  I would LOVE to speak with someone from Apple, the only problem is to even begin to wait in line to chat with an Apple representative, I need my device's serial number to begin the lovely process of waiting in line.  How do I A)-Get the device's serial number when it is locked? B)-Begin to wait in line without said serial number?  I am beginning to think it would be much easier to just report the device as stolen, then contact my carrier and have them replace this device.  Am I doing something wrong for it to take 3+ days to restore? It has the most current, up to date software on the device, why in the world would it take 3+ days to simply restore to factory settings?

    If you open it to take out the battery from the iPhone then you forfeit all service for whatever reason from Apple in the future.
    Have you attempt to connect it to your computer and then restore it from iTunes on your computer?

  • I can not sync my ipod with my itunes library unless i do a restore. When I begin the restore, I'm told that all my data will be erased. Will I be able to backup my data first, then, after the restore, can I reload my old data?

    If I restore my ipod, will it prompt me to backup my existing data? When I begin the restore process, it tells me that all data will be erased. I'm trying to download my library to a different ipod.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
    It sounds like you have failed to do this, which is not good at all.
    You will have to transfer your itunes purchases from your iphone.  Authorize your computer for your itunes account 
    About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization
    Open itunes, plug in iphone, do NOT sync, click File>Transfer Purchases
    When you do sync you will lose your pics ( photo library - synced from your old computer), your itunes content ( music, apps, videos,etc) , your contacts and your calendars.  So do NOT sync yet.  This is why a backup copy is so important.
    Enter one unique contact and calendar entry on your computer.
    When you first sync, you should get the option to merger the data.  Choose it.
    If you want your pics, then you will need to e-mail them to yourself before you sync.  They will not be of the original quality as they are reduced when synced to iphone.
    When all is as goos as it can be, then backup your computer, and always maintain the backup.

  • While updating the software from 6.1.3 to 6.1.4 on iPhone 5, the power failed. iTunes had just finished the backup and was beginning the software update. Now the phone screen says to connect to iTunes but the phone is not recognised when plugged in.

    While updating the iPhone 5 software from 6.1.3 to 6.1.4, the power failed. iTunes had just finished the backup and was beginning the software update. Now the phone screen says to connect to iTunes but the phone is not recognised when plugged in. Using Windows 7 and phone not recognised by computer, let alone by iTunes.
    Any suggestions? Happy to take it off to the the Apple genius people but would prefer to get it running myself.

  • HT1657 Downloaded 2 rentals and they won't play. They ask if I would like to begin the rental period, I say yes and it takes me to the dvd screen, but does not play. I hit play, fast forward, skip chapters and nothing.

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store. 
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • Upgrade won't recognize the hard disk to begin the installation

    Powerbook G4 w/ 9.2.2 & the original CD for OS X 10.1 - thought I'd get it on and upgrade from there since I know I'll need to buy more RAM - existing is 385 & I only have 10 G on the system. I downloaded several updates, ran the security update first. The 10.1.1 update won't recognize the hard disk to begin the installation.Thought I had a clue, but stuck in the jungle upgrading. Which one is which - is Jaguar 10.2??? Do I need to be doing each of these upgrades to get it running well until I add the RAM? I'm trying to stay calm since it updated my IE and I think I lost everything I had on it - too fast with the click and assumed they were separate entities....(unless there is a genius out there who can help on that front too)
    many thanks... Kate

    Hi Kate! And Welcome To Discussions!
    You're lucky Kappy is helping you out with this. He is one of the more knowledgable posters here!
    I'm just adding some extra info.
    There are two PowerBook models that need a Firmware Update, before you can install a newer OS X.
    Check if one of them is yours.
    Mac OS X Versions 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4, are complete system upgrades that must be purchased.
    The point upgrades, such as 10.1.x to 10.1.5 (Final) 10.2.x to 10.2.8 (Final), 10.3.x to 10.3.9 (Final), and 10.4.x to 10.4.6 (Pending), can be downloaded for free.
    Tiger is available for purchase at The Apple Store (U.S.).
    Jaguar and Panther, are no longer available directly from the Apple Online Store, as Tiger 10.4.x is the most up to date OS.
    Jaguar Full Retail Version CDs, a Full Retail Version, of the Panther Install CDs, or a Full Retail Version of the Tiger Install DVD, can be purchased rather inexpensively, at some online Apple retailers, Amazon, eBay, AppleRescue, etc.
    Be sure not to purchase grey, upgrade or machine specific CDs or DVDs.
    Jaguar and Panther are only on CDs, not DVDs.
    More info here Tip: Using OS X Install CDs/DVDs On Multiple Macs
    Once Jaguar 10.2.x is installed, you can use the 10.2.8 combo update,
    or if Panther 10.3.x is installed, you can use the 10.3.9 Combo Update, to upgrade to the final edition of either OS.
    If your Mac meets the System Requirements for Tiger, you could also consider installing that.
    And then use the 10.4.6 Combo Update.
    You'll find System Requirements in these links:
    Panther
    Tiger
    Additionally,
    "Tiger ships on a DVD, but if your Mac doesn’t have a built-in DVD-ROM player, you’ll need CD media. When you buy Mac OS X Tiger, you qualify to purchase Tiger CDs for only $9.95."

  • I have a new Iphone 5c and it keeps asking me for my voicemail password - is this how I begin the "set up"?

    I have a new iPhone 5c and it keeps asking me for my voicemail password.  Is this where I begin the voicemail set-up? 

    Usually, the default voicemail password is your telephone number.
    Contact your cell provider.

  • When I try to open iPhoto it begins the process and then stops. It brings up a message that iPhoto has quit unexpectedly. Efforts to reopen it bring the same result. My timemachine has been accidentally turned off. I have 20,000 photos on iPhoto. Help!

    When I try to open iPhoto it begins the process and then stops. It brings up a message that iPhoto has quit unexpectedly. Efforts to reopen it bring the same result. My timemachine has been accidentally turned off. I have over 20,000 photos on iPhoto. Help!

    First, copy your iPhoto Library to an external so that you have a backup.
    Second, see if you can create a new Library and have it open. To do this, open iPhoto while holding down the Option key. It will ask which Library to use, or allow you to create a new Library. Save the new library with a different name from the old one.
    If that does open with a new library, the old library is corrupt, but all the files are still OK.
    If it is a corrupt Library, iPhoto Library Manager can repair some corruption, or transfer the Library over to a new one.

  • Converting old LP's for archiving to CD's: Beginning the project

    If anyone has 'been there' 'done that' on this topic would you please advise what you would do if you had to start from scratch today? My first step is to get the sound off the vinyl into an acceptable digital form. I'll worry about editing & cleanup later (or should I worry about that now too?).
    As part of your response, should I consider an "external" recording solution so as not to beat up my MAC ??
    Your time proven and hard fought for advice would be welcome ...
    Thanks in advance for any input,

    hmmm....how good do you want this to sound? I mean, vinyl has it's own sound. Are you trying to transfer it into a digital format for digital re-mastering or are you just trying to preserve old LPs before you wear them out?
    Either way, I can't empasize this enough. Shoot for good quality from the beginning. If you want a decent turntable, the Technics SL-1200 has been THE turntable to use in the DJ industry for...well, forever. Nowadays it's built to withstand "DJ scratching" and other abuse turntables were not originally meant to be used for. You can get one for about $300-400.
    You can get a decent audio interface (a fancy term for a sound card) anywhere from $200 to $2000 dollars. Consumer sound cards are created for great output quality. Prosumer/pro audio interfaces are built for both input AND output quality. With the boom of the "home studio" movement, there's been an overall drop in price for a decent recording interface. You could get one that will work for your needs for around $200 nowadays.
    Then again, you can always find a recording studio that does simple transfer work...
    Oh, and then there's clean up/editing...I think the previous post pretty much covered that...

  • Shuffle sometimes starts from where I begin the last time

    It's hard to describe my problem but I will try.
    Let's do it like this:
    Yesterday I listend to my songs in shuffle mode from song 150 to song 170
    Today I start the shuffle mode as usually but it don't begins with song 170 but with song 150.
    And this doesn't happen all the time only sometimes.
    I've got an iPod Touch 5G with the latest iOS update.
    Has anyone else these problem or does anyone knows an answer?

    Try the standard fixes:
    - 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.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    iOS: How to back up your data and set up as a new device

  • I've cleared my mac and It says download 10.7 how do I do that with my apple ID so when I go back to it I can just login and begin the download?

    I've cleared my macbook. A ghost I believe it's called, but when I get to the 4 options, Get online help, Download 10.7 and Disk Utility and the other option. I dont kno what do. When I agree to download 10.7 it says i needa login with my apple id so i login it but it says i have not purchased 10.7. All I have to do is purchase 10.7 with my apple ID and then go back to that option and it will download 10.7 and I can use my mac as if it was brand new? Because I cleared my hard disk so I have max GB now.

    If you are trying to reinstall v10.7 Lion, startup your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys so you can access the built in utilities to restore OS X.
