Can't get past Set Up iPod
I'm having problems with my brand new iPod Shuffle. After I plugged it into my iMac, I only got as far as naming my Shuffle in the Set Up Your iPod window. I then got the Device Removal warning box (The device you removed was not properly put away, etc.) and the b-r-r-r-r-r sound you get when a Mac reboots. I hadn't even gotten through synching the iPod, let alone loading any music. So, I ejected the Shuffle and tried again. Same thing. All the time, the iPod's amber light is blinking like it's downloading. After several tries, I tried to reset it with the Reset Utility. I couldn't even do that! The warning box just keeps popping up, even after the Utility says it's reset and asks if I want to open iTunes. The warning box won't allow me to do anything. Help! I feel like I'm stuck on a Mobius band.
Same exact thing here and I have no idea why. The whole thing's completely corrupted from the get-go. I am ruing this stupid Shuffle purchase. Apart from the iPhone -- which is terrific -- Apple hardware/software updates is getting progressively worse, I'm finding.

Can't get past "Find My iPod" set-up screen, please help :(
Hi, so I just bought an iPod Touch, to replace my old iPod Nano. I downloaded the latest iTunes, plugged in my iPod, clicked on the iPod's icon in the bar on the left, did the register thing... then it came up with a completely unformatted block of text which looks like this:
"Free Find My iPhone
Free Find My iPad
Free Find My iPod touch
Set up Find My iPhone for free so you can locate your device if you lose it, remotely lock the screen, or wipe its data. You can also find your iPad or iPod touch.Set up Find My iPad for free so you can locate your device if you lose it, remotely lock the screen, or wipe its data.

Not Now

Set up Find My iPad
Set up Find My iPod touch
Find My iPhone (or iPad or iPod touch) enables you to locate your iPad with Wi-Fi or iPod touch only when it is on and connected to a registered Wi-Fi network. Find My iPhone is not available in all countries."
This was in the iTunes window. There were hyperlinks (or whatever the in-application equivalent is) on "Learn More", "Not Now", and "Set up Find My iPhone
Set up Find My iPad
Set up Find My iPod touch"
When I click on any of the links, nothing happens I can't get past this screen to sync my iPod. Please help!
When I right-clicked on the "Not Now" link and then clicked "copy link", this is what it copies: javascript:gotoNextStep();
Don't know if that helps at all.
I go through a lot of firewalls that aren't under my control (I use a high school's internet to cut a long story short) if that is relevant.Garygargar is spot on. Just unplugged my network cable and relaunched Itunes. Got past that FindMe screen, plugged the cable back in, wait 10 seconds, and on my way.
I love it when the first google search result is the actual fix for something!

HT1414 Can't get past set up page with new iPhone
Just got a new iPhone from Apple store. Tried to restore from backup, but can't get past the "connect to iTunes" screen on my phone. I can see my phone in iTunes, have synched it to my computer, installed phone updates from my computer, but still can't get past the "connect to ITunes" screen. I am connected...I can't figure out what's wrong that I can't get past this screen to my home screen.
I went into the Apple store and the guy fixed it somehow using icloud (strange since I backed up to itunes not icloud) but I'm not complaining!

Can't get past set up with ios7
I have an iphone 4 and just updated from ios 4.3 to ios7. it went through the full restore but the phone won't work. It's showing the Hello>slide to set up screen. then I choose wifi then I get to a restore screen. I've restored a few times now and it just doesn't get past this. It's not even working as a phone now and I'm really worried that I've lost all my contacts too. What am I doing wrong? What can I do to get it working?

OS5 Update. Can't get past Set Up iCloud after OS5 update.
I just updated to OS5 and cannot get past the Set Up iCloud screen.
If you cannot go any further or do anything else you may as well try restarting the iPad and see what happens.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. Hopefully you will be able to pickup where you left off setting up the iPad. -
When I turn on my iPhone my screen says "Slide to set up". After that, I'm asked to choose a network. If I choose my own network and type in the password, it says the password is incorrect, even though I know it's correct. If I manage to get passed the network-part, it goes straight back to the beginning. This all happened in the middle of the night, and now I'm not able to use the iPhone at all. Also, it says I need to insert a valid SIM that's not PIN-locked. Anyone know what to do?
iOS 5? You pay the $99 to join the developers program, then ask on the developers forums if there's any way to fix it. You can't discuss iOS 5 in this forum. Anyone who legitimately has it is under NDA.
Did you go through one of these wonderful websites that will add your phone to their developer's account for a small fee? If so, it appears Apple has begun shutting them down.

Can't Get Past "Set Up" in Contact Info
Hi
I'm trying to get through the Set Up stage for my Contact Info. Each time I click on SET UP, it takes me to the info where my name and address are already in place. When I click the DONE button, it goes back to the pic you see below, but the blue SET UP button is still active even though my info was present on the Info page. How do I get that blue button to change to a "View" button like the other ones already done being set up?
Thanks!When I saw that number, I assumed the screenshot had not been altered, thus my initial response.

Can't get past set up assistant welcome screen on new MacBook Pro

Can't get past "terms of Use" screen at initial set-up
I'm trying to set up our new Nano, but I can't get past the "Terms of Use/User Agreement" screen. There is just nothing showing up which will allow me to "accept" the terms. When you scroll to the bottom of the terms, there is nothing, and there are no tabs anywhere else on the page which say "accept". I've updated my itunes software, operating system software, and tried several times to eject, then reconnect ipod, but no good. Please help.
Hello Annie0602,

My newly updated iPad 2 wants an email for the apple ID. My apple ID is not an email address. How can I get past the set-up screen?
I can't change my Apple ID. It would mess all my stuff up.To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone (if you're using iOS 7), then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
