    My Iphone 4 crashed yesterday after a restart and upload of OS 5.0, it will only partially sync.  It's not transferring any of my music or ringtones.  They still appear when I click open the sync screens on ITunes, but I don't seem to have an Ipod function and only one of my personalized ringtones transfers on the actual phone.

    Dear Firefox,
    When I select "Check for Updates" the pop up screen simply notes that my system is "Downloading update" but nothing ever happens.
    Please let me know what I can do to fix this.
    Thank you,

    You can download the latest Firefox 4 beta version from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-beta.html
    Trash the current Firefox 4.0b7 version and install the latest beta.

  • Anyone else getting a timed out error message when trying to check for updates via the app store software on a desktop?

    Hi, couple of things to try...

    Post subject: NSURLErrorDomain error -1100 in OS X 10.8
    If you check for software updates using the App Store in OS X 10.8 and get "NSURLErrorDomain error -1100" the problem may be with your Software Update preferences. This is particularly likely if you were using a custom Apple Software Update server. To solve the problem, quit the App Store, move the following two files (if present) to the trash, restart, and only then rerun App Store updates:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist.lockfile

    I was recently trying to upgrade to mountain lion through the app store.  I have unreliable Internet from a cable company whom I will not name, but we all know who they are.  My Internet dropped while downloading the upgrade.  Once I went through the notorious unplug the modem/router and plugged it back in to gain Internet connectivity again, I could not resume. No matter what I did, the app store kept displaying "an error occurred." I am hoping that those with the same issue read this first to save them hours of skimming through the Internet to find a solution.  Here are the steps to take:
    1. Make sure you have reestablished Internet connection
    2. Chances are you got frustrated when you tried to resume/unpause the download and clicked the "X" to the left.  If so, select the "Store" drop-down menu from the App Store and select "View My Account." There should be an option to unhide your purchase.  You know what to do.
    3. There is also an option to  reset all warnings for buying and downloading under "View My Account." Do this, click "Done," sign out of the App Store and quit the App Store.
    4. Open the Preferences in safari and select Privacy.  Select "Remove All Website Data."  Just do it.
    5. Launch the app store and sign in.
    6. Now, if you "Check for Unfinished Downloads" everything works peachy.
    I hope this helps.  Not much I can do for your Internet connection though.

    Hi gnaksung, 
    Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities. 
    It seems like you're trying to update iTunes 10 on your Mac, but the update options are not working. 
    You may find the troubleshooting tips and download method in this article helpful with updating iTunes:
    Troubleshooting iTunes installation on Mac OS X - Apple Support
    If you're currently using OS X 10.6.8, see this link for the iTunes 11.4 download, which is the latest version that can be installed:
    iTunes 11.4 for OS X 10.6
    Sincerely,

  • HT4972 I have an iPod touch 3rd generation with IOS 4.2.1 and the newest version of iTunes.  However, when I press "check for updates" it says that IOS 4.2.1 is the current version.  How do I update?

    I have an iPod touch 3rd generation with IOS 4.2.1 and the newest version of iTunes.  However, when I press "check for updates" it says that IOS 4.2.1 is the current version.  How do I update?

    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.

  • When will there be fix for AirPrint in Yosemite? I cannot use my HP printer. I have uninstalled/resinstalled everything you can think of. I have deleted and added my printer more time than I can count. I have checked for updates. Nothing has worked.

    When will there be fix for AirPrint? Since upgrading to Yosemite I cannot print from my MacBook Air which I use mostly. (I can print from the my old 2005 G5 desktop and iPad2 just fine on the same network.) I could print just fine when I had Mavericks. I have tried EVERYTHING under the sun: resetting print system, deleting and adding the printer, checking for updates, uninstalling and reinstalling printer software and folders, turning off modem, router etc. NOTHING works.
    The laptop shows that it is printing but nothing happens. Then it says it cannot locate the printer or there is a broken pipe. But it does tell me that I have a low level in one of the ink cartridges (which is true.)
    Help! I have warned everyone I know not to upgrade. Is there a way to go back to Mavericks?

  • Getting an error when trying to check for update for my iPad

    On the iPad itself, there is no option such as 'update' in the general tab under settings. So I connected the iPad to my computer and on iTunes, whenever I click for 'Check for Update' I get an error message that says:
    The iPad software update server could not be contacted
    Make sure your network setting are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later
    My network is absolutely fine and I have been trying since almost 2 days now.

    If you would like help from these user forums then saying what the error message was would be useful.
