Can my friend update her firmware on my computer? She has dialup at home.

Can I allow a friend to update her iphone to 1.1.1 on my computer? She doesn't have broadband and at 152MB it would take 2 days to download over dialup.

yes. However, be prepared to immediately stop the syncing process or else your contacts and stuff are going to merge. They pop up warnings about it and everything, but it will ask about it. I would have her do a sync at home just prior to be safe so she does not lose anything of importance to her.
Make sure you iTunes is the current version and upload away!!!! =-)

Her iPhone will need to be set up to iTunes Match using your Apple ID to be able to share music via iTunes Match. Otherwise you'll have to download the music to your computer and then copy those tracks into her iTunes library, assuming hers is separate.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The first thing you should do is have your friend log out of your account and change your password.
Do you have a back up from when you had the contacts on your phone.

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

Can my friend sync her iPad on my Mac?

I have a friend who just bought an iPad. She has an old eMac. She had to connect to my iMac to activate the iPad. Now, her iTunes is so old that it cannot do anything with her iPad.
Can I create a user account for her, import her iTunes stuff from her old eMac, then let her sync away on my iMac?
Would creating a user account keep her iTunes separate from mine?

Yes. That will work.

My wife recieved invite event from my PC Outlook. She accepted it, but it never showed up on her iCloud or iCal on our iMac. Then I removed her as an invitee and it did not remove the event from her iPhone. So now she has a event on her iPhone that is not on either her iCloud or iCal. How do I remove it from her iPhone?

1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.
iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
2)
Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Then on the iPod go to
- Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
- Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
- Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers

CS4 Student Edition - Can my daughter use this for commercial use after she has finished her studies?

I have searched all day, having phoned 6 different numbers and researched everywhere to not get a definate answer to this question. We are in the UK, I do not want to spend money on software which she cannot legally use after her studies to produce work which she can sell commercially. Some forum answers are relevant for North America only or are a little out of date refering to Education Licenses. Please help!! One person said they embed a watermark to prevent commercial use but is this an education copy or a student edition?

Within limits, yes, but as you stated you are in the UK, I don't think it is "allowed". Refer to this link: http://www.adobe.com/education/students/studentedition/faq.html
I'll copy the text for sake of ease.
Do the Student Editions have restricted functionality?
Adobe Student Editions give the end user all the features and functionality of the commercial versions. The software may be used only on a privately owned computer, and the end user may not transfer or resell ownership of the Adobe Student Edition license.
Is there a time limit on using the Student Editions?
No, there is no time limit on using the Student Editions.
Can a Student Edition also be used for commercial purposes?
In North America, Student Edition software can be used for commercial purposes. Outside North America, Student Edition software is for noncommercial purposes only.
How many versions of a Student Edition can I purchase?
Each eligible person may purchase only one copy per Adobe Student Edition. For example, a student may purchase only one copy of Creative Suite 4 Design Premium Student Edition. If that student buys an additional copy of Design Premium Student Edition, no serial number will be issued for it.
How many computers can I use a Student Edition on?
A Student Edition license can be installed on up to two computers (for example, a desktop and laptop). Activation ensures that no more than two computers can have the same serial number.
Can I upgrade from a Student Edition?
Yes, a Student Edition can be upgraded to a commercial version.
Can I resell a Student Edition?
The end user may not transfer or resell ownership of the Adobe Student Edition license.
Can I use a Student Edition after I graduate?
Yes, after you graduate, you may continue to use your Student Edition; the license does not expire.
Can I use a Student Edition on a computer at school?
No, you may use your Student Edition only on your own private computer.

Are there anyone who can't still update to Firmware 1.0.1?

I have tried everything except the clean install option....still can't manage to do the update. At this point I am wondering whether I should pursue this or wait for the next update and see whether the problem persists?
Are there anyone on the same boat here?
Thanks and regards

Hi there - I just registered to post so I could let you know that I'm also in the same boat. I am currently doing a clean reinstall as a last resort. I plan on attempting the firmware upgrade to 1.0.1 immediately once it finishes.
I will report back to this thread to let you know if it works.
I had previously removed the unused language files so I first tried restoring those. That didn't allow the firmware to succeed. I also tried the Firmware Restoration CD but that didn't work either.

Why can't I update Iphone firmware on authorized pc, it only goes on Main Itunes pc ?

Hello,
I have a question about upgrading the firmware on my Iphone 3GS
Normally I upgrade my firmware on my main itunes pc,
but last time I tried to upgrade the firmware,
I was on my laptop which I authorized for syncing with itunes.
I got a popup window saying that I could only upgrade the firmware when I'm on the main itunes pc.
My questions :
1) Soon I'm going to format my "main itunes pc" ( currently windows xp ) and install windows 7,
how can I make it my "main itunes pc" again after installing windows 7 ?
2) If this isn't possible how can I make one of my authorized itunes pc's
as a main itunes pc, so that I can upgrade from there ?
I looked all over the net for anwers, but couldn't find any,
all I can find is discussions of syncing your media on authorized pc's and such.
Thanks very much in advance.
Greetings,
Soxbro

Well, if you've gone six months without trying it, why are you posting the question now?
Seriously, no one can help with vague descriptions of an issue that occurred weeks or months ago.
Try it again, does the problem still exist?

Can I share my iPad apps with my wife--she has her own iTunes account

I just bought my wife an iPad. Can I share some of my apps with her? We have different accounts and use different computers to sync.

Well, it's real easy if you use the same computer with the same computer login. Just connect and go! iTunes will keep track of which iPad is which by name. The only minor nuisance is app updates. You want to get into the habit of always using the iPads. iTunes requires that you log out and back in again but the iPads handle it automatically. You just have to remember the PW for both accounts.
I can't help you with two computers.

HT3288 my track pad is jumping around all the time and constantly clicking i tried updating the firmware but the computer states all is up to date, the probleme comes and goes and I'm not shire what triggers it

my track pad will sudenly start jumping around the screen and clicking very rapidly, since te problem began it operates diferently from normal when ever it apears to be working correctly, specificly i can no longer grab items without removing the tracking finger from the pad before clicking to grab an item, if i do not it will procede as if i double cliked somthing, conversly if i disable the two finger tap double click i am unable to double click anything, sometimes whilst apearing to funtion normally it will scroll from side to side if i do not remove my thumb from the bottom of the pad, again these are during the rare instances its not jumping about the screen cliking, and reaking havoc on what ever im working on any help would be apreciated thanks.

You have some type of hardware problem. More then likely the battery is swelling and putting presure on the trackpad. The only thing to do is take to Apple and have them check it all out, replacing any parts that are needed.

Why can't I update my Iphone on my computer?

I am trying to update my 3G Iphone on my mac. When I try to update it, it says that my itune needs to be updated first, when I try to update my itunes it says that there is no update available. HELP!

cpruitt78 Thanks for sending me the link, for some reason that's not the link I had found earlier. I will try to uninstall and reinstall.
Thanks everyone for your help. It was a vicious circle. I'm learning.

My iPod Touch 4G suddenly went black screen and can't be recognized by iTunes or my computer...AND my Home Button is broken. What can I do?

I was just casually on my iPod and I put it in sleep mode really quick and when I went to use it again, it wouldn't pull up the Lock Screen! All I want to do is update it, but now I can't...anyone got any advice for this specific situation?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
When it says place the iPod in recovery mode ue one of these programs:
For PC
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
For MAC or PC
The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
