Can't update software because connections???
I have read several discussions on how to update my iphone without the software button. However when I am in itunes it tells me it can't check for updates because of iphone server could not be reached. Check my connections & try again?? I'm using the same internet connections for the iphone and the the computer? Can someone please help?
It should be because of some security issues. You can go through this article - http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1275

I can't update software because a message appears that I have to log with the same Apple ID that was used to purchase them: iMovie, Garage Band, iPhoto, but those apps came with OSX Lion.

My imac is 10.5.8 how can I update software, because I can't get into itunes anymore
I am running 10.5.8
I am now booted out of iTunes because I need the latest iTunes version, but when i try to downlaod that, I am told my software version will not support my itunes version. I am stuck between a rock and a hard place. How can I move up from 10.5.8?Start by checking if you cn run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard. -
I can't get my iPad to update it's not a iPad 2 and it doesn't have a software update button in the the setting and general location.
The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

Can't update software because Macbook Air won't restart properly
I own a late 2010 Macbook Air and have recently bought OS X Mountain Lion.
After going through steps to update the most recent version of OS X Mountain Lion, I find that my mac fails to startup properly and beeps once
before taking several attemps to restart. When it eventually does, the software doesn't update.
Other updates install without a problem, it's just when they require restarting.
Please explain small details as I have little knowledge when it comes to this topic.
Please help and thank you in advance!!The beep indicates a memory fault.
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.

Can not update iTunes because I have iMac with 10.5.8 . How I will sync my iphone 6.0 with an older version of iTunes on my iMac???? There is no update for the software of my iMac and no update for the iTunes.... So how can I sync????
Requirements for iPhone 5:
Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
iTunes 10.7 or later
The highest version of iTunes you can install is 10.6.3 which will not sync with the iPhone 5.

It's always a good idea to check the requirements before purchasing.
The person I spoke with at 1-800-MY-APPLE gave me totally different info...she said the iPhone 5 would in fact sync with the older version of iTunes and that I could restore from my previous iPhone 4 backup and also bring in my music that way. Hmmm....
I'm inclined to go by the published specs, but now I have to jump thru a bunch of hoops I wasn't expecting to. -

Can you update apps when connected to itunes on laptop?
can you update apps when connected to itunes on laptop?
Yes. You can download the updates to the apps in iTunes and then sync them to the iPad while the iPad is connected to your computer. I did that last night because I had so many large app updates to do - apps that were 250MB up to 650MB in size - and it just made more sense to me to do it that way.

Can't update apps because app world won't work
I have like 8 app updates but I can't update them because app world isn't letting me sign in. It takes like 2 minutes to authenticate my sign in info and it says it can't do it and has to close app world because an error occured.
AND I can't update app world or even connect my blackberry to my computer because I can't download/install the desktop manager.I can't do like anything. Currently I'm trying to download the desktop manager so I can update app world since app world keeps crashing. Like I'm on the authenticating screen with my email and password and it sits on the authenticating screen for minutes until it says that app world expereienced an error and needs to close. And I can barely update any of my apps.
I'm seriously fed up with blackberry right now. -
HT1414 how can I update software on an old ipod?
Hey Guys,
How can I update software on an old iPod touch? I currently cant download any apps etc as im too out of date ;-(
Thanks for your help ;-)I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
Identifying iPod models
iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

Can't update itunes because of a missing msi file
I can't update iTunes because of a missing msi file? Any suggestions on how to correct this?
Yes it is looking for the iTunes64.msi file
Many thanks.
(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time? -
I have apps from old work account that I can't remember the password to. On my personal phone those apps keep showing up but I can't update them because I can't remember the password. How can I delete them and download on my new account?
Tap and hold an app until they all start jiggling and an X appears in the icon's top left corner. One by one tap the X to delete the app. when they are all gone you are free to buy them again with your own account.

Can't update osx because disk full
I have a MacBook Air with 120 GB hard drive. Have been getting message "Can't update (OSX) because startup disk full." Says I need to free up some disk space. Other messages just say the hard drive is too full. When I go to Finder the "get info" option for the hard drive says I only have about 365 MB left on disk. Hard to believe since I have very little data on computer. No music, no videos, less than 100 pictures. Only thing of any size is Parallels desktop and Windows 7. I was stopped from using Windows because of the full disk.
When I check each secxtion in Finder>Favorites they only add up to less than 70 GB (still hard to believe that much is on my disk).
How do I search this out? Where did the other 50 GB (120 GB that "get info" for hard drive says is used less 70 GB sum of folders)? Is there a utility to show all folders or files in order of size, high to low?
BTW, my home iMac with thousands of pictures, 300+ cd's in lossless compression and many more downloads, files and programs loaded doesn't use as much disk space as this Air.Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk
