continue to get error message "backup could not be completed" after purchasing additional storage

Just wanted to update the community on my exciting adventure to fix my ipad;
I made my way over to the Apple Store here in South Florida and had my appointment with the geniuses. No one could figure this sucker out! They did every thing they could think of to the ipad without success. Couldn't even tell me what the problem was. All were very nice about it, of course. I was told to wait a day while they contacted the great and powerful central genius(es) but apparently no one was home there since they never responded to the request for help.
Anyway, I will go back to the Apple Store one more time before I give in to the conclusion that my 3 year old iPad (original) is DOA

Continue to get error "activation request could not be completed";

Let my battery run down to zero on iPad; now despite hard restore during which I see itunes reinstalling the software the final message is always "activation request could not be completed. Try again later" . Tried again over several days with same result.
Thanks for input.

Hey santhosh.pv,
We have a few articles that can help troubleshoot the alert message in iTunes you see when you are trying to restore your iPhone 4. You can resolve many restore issues using the troubleshooting steps documented here:
iOS: Resolving update and restore alert messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275
The next article is the companion of the more general article above. Follow the above article first. If, after following that article, the issue persists, continue with this article:

Cant open itunes. Get error message CMBlockBufferCopyDataBytes could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreMedia.dll. Anyone know how to fix that?

Cant open itunes. Get error message CMBlockBufferCopyDataBytes could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreMedia.dll. Anyone know how to fix that?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The error hints at a similar pattern to those discussed in the first and third boxes of the user tip, suggesting that you've got an outdated .dll file that needs replacing. You should find CoreMedia.dll in the one of the following folders:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
Delete it and then repair Apple Mobile Device Support from the Programs and Features control panel. If that doesn't work go for the full tear down and rebuild.

HT4910 Why do I get "The last backup could not be completed" Last backup: 5/4/12 at 11:16 am?

Why do I get "The last backup could not be completed" Last backup: 5/4/12 at 11:16 am every time I try to back up my iphone 4s? I also get a message that my iphone hasn't been backuped in 32 weeks?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again.
Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

I am getting error message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone". I have deleted the backup and restarted my computer, but continue to get this error message. What do I need to do now?

I have recently updated my phone and am attempting to sync it. I got the error message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone". I deleted the backup, restarted my computer, and even restored the iPhone, but continue to get the same error message. What do I need to do now?

iTunes places the iPhone backup in the following location. Navigate there & delete everything in the backup folder, but not the folder itself. You will have to turn on "Show All Hidden Files & Folders" to see it:
Mac:~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP:\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

TS4036 on iCloud I get The last backup could not be completed? I have 4gb of space

Hi trying to back up my stuff on icloud. I can do it on the computer but it will not let me on my iphone.
i have 4GB space, so thats not the problem.
it says - The last backup could not be completed.
any ideas?
thanks

This may be caused by a corrupt existing backup that needs to be deleted, or by data on your device that is causing the backup to fail. To troubleshoot these, try deleting your last iCloud backup (if you have one) by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, swipe across your backup and tap Delete, then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on and try backing up again.
If it still won't back up, you may have an app or something in your camera roll that is causing the backup to fail. To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again. If the backup is successful, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is causing the backup to fail and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again. If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again. If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails. Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.

How do I apply special effects to a track when I keep getting error message that "Could not find layout Default Reverb GB"?

How do I apply special effects to a track in GarageBand when I keep getting error message that says"Could not find layout Default Reverb GB"?

I go to Applications to see if
GarageBand has changed and dthere is no change, still 1.42GB of file size ‹
no evidence of the 10+ GB that the installer told me I was downloading, no
evidence in my download folder that I downloded anything, and most
important, when I click on ³Effects² I¹m back to the same error message.
I¹ve been at this now for about 3 hours.
Downloading the extra content will take a very long time.
When the download has finished, the prompt for the password will appear and the installer will continue to run in the background.
Let t run. As long as GarageBand is still installing, it will give a warning, when you try to quit.
When you can quit GarageBand without a warning, restart your Mac.
The size of the GarageBand application will not change, but you should be seeing more loops. They are installed in the System Library, and the folder "Library" on your Macintosh HD should by now be 10GB larger.

When I sync my ipad 2 I get error message ipad could not be found

When I sync my ipad photo's and tunes download onto my PC but before the sync is completed I get error message saying ipad can't be found. How do I complete the sync process. I have updated version of itunes but still have problem

You may have a backup that is causing this problem, but I would start with something very simple. Quit iTunes, reboot your PC and restart the iPad and then try again.
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.

TS1424 Has anyone encountered trouble transferring rented films to their iPhone? I get error message "iTunes could not copy [film name] to the iPhone because the file could not be written"

I have dowloaded a film to rent. Downloads to iTunes without problem. However it does not transfer to my iPhone.
At first it appeared on iTunes as though it should be on my phone (it definately wasn't).
Apple Support sent me film to download again.
Tried to transfer it again tonight and the error message I get is: "iTunes could not copy [film title]Spy to the iPhone because the file could not be written"
Can anyone help ASAP

Two possibilities come to mind.
Check your source hard drive for errors, right-click on the drive holding the library, click Properties, tools, check for errors, scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors...
Or...
Repair Security Permissions
Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. If necessary grant your account and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to replace permissions on child objects which will repair permissions throughout the library. This is the XP dialog but Windows 7 shouldn't be too different.
If it won't let you change the permissions use the Owner tab to take ownership from an account with administrator privileges.

ADOBE READER 8.1 WILL NOT WORK-KEEP GETTING ERROR MESSAGE 1606: COULD NOT ACCESS NETWORK LOCATION %APPDATA%

Have tried to uninstall the Adobe Program but it will not let me. I keep getting the 1606 error message. I have went to the Microsoft Help site and it says that the registry may need to be modified. They also advised you that if you do not modify it correctly you may have very serious problems.

Please see this Microsoft KB article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/886549/
Some registry entry may have been corrupted, and it needs to be fixed. If you don't know how to edit the registry, do you have somebody who is confident enough to edit the Windows registry?
Anyway, for now I just want you to check something in the registry - don't modify anything yet!
Click Start | Run | type regedit [Enter]
Once the Registry Editor is open, drill down to the following subkey
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
In here you should see multiple entries, one being AppData - what is the data value on the right side? It should be %USERPROFILE%\Application Data.
Please close the registry editor now, and report back what you found.

Now I cannot use Adobe reader or Acrobat at all. It opens up a page then after about 15 seconds the error messsage comes up then the page closes.

Yes,
I believe it is working now. I appreciate your help.
Thank you,
