Can not restore or update iPad 2
Hi, I can not restore or update my iPad2. allways got a same message: "could not be updated the device isn't eligible for the requested build." Please I'm need a help to solve the problem. Thanks
When connecting ipad to itunes, in the Summary tab (in itunes for your device), look in the Backups section and choose to back up to itunes.
Read this... import photos to your computer...

my device was not registered as part of the Developers Program and now my devices are not working, i can not restore nor update my devices... any suggestions? i was running my devices on iOS 7 Beta that i downloaded back in August
If you're not a registered developer, it means you've stolen Apple's software. Now you come to an Apple forum and ask for help? You're lucky you're not being prosecuted!
You can receive no help for stolen software here. Enjoy your iBrick. -
I have been trying to update to iOS 6, I have updated my iTunes, as well as my OS on my Windows 7. I have an iPhone 4s but I keep getting the code 3194, I have no clue what it is, but it is very annoying. Does anyone have any suggestions? What should I do?
From this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
Error 1004, 1013, 1638, 3194: These errors may be the result of the connection to gs.apple.com being redirected or blocked. Follow these steps to resolve these errors:
Install the latest version of iTunes.
Check security software. Ensure that communication to gs.apple.com is allowed. Follow this article for assistance with security software. iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues.
Check the hosts file. The restore will fail if there is an active entry to redirect gs.apple.com. FollowiTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting to edit the hosts file or revert to a default hosts file. See section "Blocked by configuration: (Mac OS X/Windows) > Rebuild network information".
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service. -
I can not restore my IPad and I can not update it . I tried with ITunes and with the device as well
Any help. PleaseIt really helps if you describe what is happening, otherwise there is no way to offer meaningful suggestions. Just saying "I can't ..." Doesn't tell us anything helpful.

After updating my 3gs to ios5.0.1, I can not restore my phone. It says session failed after about 20 seconds. It appears to be a restore point available. What should I do?
Hi all,
I work for an Enterprise with around 30 devices so far, 5 of them have been upgraded to iOS 5.01 and we are having this issue, the steps below are appearing, these are both on iphone and ipad 2's with exchange 2003:-
- Exchange Calendars not sync'ing, but Yahoo account working fine.
- Create an appointment on the ipad / iphone and this sync's with Exchange.
- Close the Calendar and re-open the appointment disappears, but stay's within Exchange.
- Meetings created within the Exchange Calendar do not synch with the iphone / ipad.
This is starting to cause a lot of issues.
Thanks

iPad not responsive. Even hold both the restart and Home buttons for 20 seconds.
Originally I can see the iPad symbol on the screen. Trying using iTune to restore it, then only the charging symbol is shown. iTunes can not even recognize the iPad anymore.What to Do When Your iPad Won't Turn On

Can not restore ipad 2. Unable to connect to activation server, server is temporarily unavailable??
Hi Anson/JimHdk,
I triple checked to makes sure my SSID and passwords are right.
I found the MAC Address filter is not turned on...
I don't think there's maximum number of connection for the router (I turned my 2 other devices on Airplane mode when checking) and it still didn't work.
I don't know how to durn off DHCP and use static IP address....
There's no firmware update available for my router as it's 8 years old....
My brother says I will need to get a new router.... hopefully that will work....
Thank you both for offering these additional checks!

After installing iOS7 I was prompted to make a passcode, I did so and stupidly forgot and now continually am disabling my iPad, ways in which I have read you can sort this is restoring your iPad, however I can not restore without iTunes telling me I need to go onto the iPad and turn off FindMyiPhone! How else can I sort this? It is logged into my apple account and everything! This is an iPad 2 also ASAP help!!
Hello shanefox,
This can be done by logging in at iCloud.com and removing your device via the Find My iPhone web interface.

Was thje TM backup 10.6 also?
I never use TM for Backups, far better less painful backup methods, but...
Have you looked through Pondini's extensive TM help site?

I can not restore and upgrade my Iphone 4. When i plug in to computer itune's restore and check for update buttons are not active. What is that mean?
Razmee,
Guess what? After posting, I read another thread on this topic where someone said they went to an Apple store and the tech person there added the optional username and password in the Outgoing Mail Server boxes, and then reset the phone again. Although I had tried resetting and restarting a few times today, I had NOT reset it after entering the username and password into the optional fields.
When I entered my username and password into the optional fields, the iPhone entered checks (ticks) to the right of every entry; it had not done this earlier. (I didn't reset at this time, and the outgoing mail would still not transmit).
So just now, I reset it and the outgoing email was sent!
Thanks to you and this forum, it's a great ending to a few frustrating days.
I hope this message helps others. Not only does everything have to be entered correctly in the respective boxes; but once everything is entered and you press the "Done" button, every box should then have a check mark next to it and then you must reset the phone. -
My IPAD has not been used in almost two.... I have tried to update software but when go to Settings, General I can not find Software Updates where it should be between About and Sounds, what can I do? Nothing has been updated, tried through ITunes on PC and said I needed to update to ITunes 10.1 and can't do this either, please help me. Can't find ICloud either!
Make sure iTune is up to date.

It is hardly Apple's fault that Epson can't/won't update their driver, but at least Epson suggest that you use the Gutenprint driver, which in any case is far better that what Epson offer.
You can get it here:
http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/
You can download the latest version from here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp-print/
Have you downloaded the recent Apple update to Epson drivers?

Search Google for "iphone 3g ipsw" (does not matter which one in your case, just need to restore your phone, then can do whatever). Open iTunes with your phone connected. Shift click on "Restore" (Apple click for Mac) and choose the IPSW file you downloaded. That is called a manual restore. Should help you out.
