    Hello Aaron1658,
    It sounds like you are unable to activate your phone with the SIM provided to you by your carrier. Try these steps in the following article to help you troubleshoot what it happening, named:
    iPhone: Troubleshooting activation issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3424
    Symptoms
    Your iPhone may display one of the following messages when you attempt to activate it:
    "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable."
    "The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported"
    "The iPhone is not recognized and cannot be activated for service."
    "iTunes was unable to verify your device."
    Restart the iPhone.
    Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
    Try connecting to a known-good Wi-Fi network if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
    Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
    Restore the iPhone.
    If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.
    If this is not what you are referring to, would you provide some more information about what is happening? Any error messages, prompts, etc.?
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,

  • How to work with iTunes Genius?

    Hi there,
    I am a new user of the Genius feature. I was using Pandora and other Internet radios before. But, this Genius feature excited me, so, I switched, should say.
    But, there are some serious problems with iTunes Genius that I do not get it. For instance, the songs are not well arranged by iTunes. Although they call it "Genius", sometimes songs show up in a playlist that does not make sense. For instance, a new song shows up in a playlist auto-generated by Genius called "Classic Rock Mix". Is there anyway possible to manipulate the Genius results? Or, can we remove any song from the Genius list, which we think is not relevant to the playlist type?
    Regards
    Ritesh

    It sounds like you are mixing up several different things (or not using the terminology that Apple uses).
    One thing is backup. You can backup via icloud or via iTunes and there is no reason you cannot do both -- I do and the second link below from Apple gives instructions. Doing a backup will include photos from the Camera Roll in the backup but you will not be able to see the results -- all of the backup data will be stored on iCloud or on your computer in files that are not designed to be accessed by you for any purpose other than restoring to your phone in the event of a problem. More information on backup:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5262
    If you simply want to transfer photos from an iPhone to a computer, the terminology Apple uses for that is "import" and it is done without iTunes. New photos (taken after you change the setting) can be done via PhotoStream which is a cloud based option. The other option is via cable. Instructions for both: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083
    Syncing via iTunes (with regard to photos) is used to transfer photos the other direction -- from the computer to the phone. Instructions for that http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

  • I can't see the gift playlist arrow next to any of my playlists. How do I give a playlist with itunes 10?

    I can't see the gift playlist arrow next to any of my playlists. How do I give a playlist with itunes 10?

    Try this: 
    1.  Create your playlist in iTunes.
    2.  Select the playlist in the source (left) column.
    3.  Go to the Store menu > Share playlist...
    4.  Click the "Gift" button in the dialog box that appears.
    5. Wait while iTunes checks that all the playlist's songs are available in the store.
    6.  Fill out the gift form that eventually appears.
    That should work.
    Regards.

  • I used to be able to play music and podcasts in a single playlist (with iTunes DJ), but now can't seem to do this.  Is there a way around this with iTunes 11?

    I used to be able to play music and podcasts in a single playlist (with iTunes DJ), but now can't seem to do this.  Is there a way around this with iTunes 11?

    You are freaken genius!  Apple should update their instructions on how to give playlists, because the old way no longer works.  And people tend to give gifts around this time of year.  Anyway, mahalo niu loa (thank you very much)!

    I solved my own problem. Hopefully this will help someone else.
    I did a DFU restore, then started it up as a new phone on iTunes. Everything loaded properly, then from iTunes did a restore from backup, selected the one I wanted and it still took me to the same screen with 3 options of restore. I chose the start up as new phone from the actual phone and after all the syncing was completed, my phone is back in working order.

  • ITunes Match wont work in Israel

    like other people noticed before me, itunes match wont work in israel, and no one replyed yet with an official answer.
    can we know why it isnt working?

    No one could possibly know the answer to your question unless Apple announces.
    No one has access to any information that you do not.
    If Apple has not announced, then no one would know.

  • I have always been able to create playlists on itunes, then drag them to my ipod when it was plugged into the mac. I recently downloaded the latest version of itunes, and now I am unable to do that. I am able to drag songs and albums but not my playlists.

    I have always been able to create playlists on itunes, then drag them to my ipod when it is plugged into the mac. I recently downloaded the latest version of itunes, and now am unable to do that. I can drag songs and albums to the ipod, but not my playlists. It used to be so easy, am I missing something here?

    Plug your iPod into your computer, it will begin to sync. Now check to see if the playlists have been added.
    If not, go to the songs tab under your iPod when it is connected to iTunes, Unless you have checked "Sync all songs (or something to those words)" you should have an option on what you can put on your iPod. Make sure to check the playlists that you want on your iPod.

  • HT1329 My old computer with itunes no longer works.  If I hook my ipod to my new computer will I lose all the songs on the ipod?

    My old computer with itunes no longer works.  If I hook my ipod to my new computer will I lose the songs that are on it now?

    Yes, you will.
    Do you have the songs still?
    You could add them to your new library if you do.

  • ITunes crashes when doing a power search. I get a Microsoft Visual C   Runtime Library Error message: Program C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\iTunes.exe R6025.  Pure virtual functional call.  If I select ok, Windows 7 pops up with iTunes has stopped working

    iTunes crashes when doing a power search. I get a Microsoft Visual C   Runtime Library Error message: Program C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\iTunes.exe R6025.  Pure virtual functional call.  If I select ok, Windows 7 pops up with iTunes has stopped working and then it shuts iTunes down.  Anyone else every have this issue.  Any ideas on a fix?
    Thanks,

    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 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.

  • After formatting iPod to NTFS and restoring back with iTunes, the player works for two-three weeks and crashes afterward. It then requests to restore it through iTunes.

    After reformatting iPod to NTFS and restoring back with iTunes, the player works for two-three weeks and crashes afterward. It then requests to restore it through iTunes. When connected to iTunes, it sees it in the restore mode and also asks to restore the iPod. It happens over and over for the last months. What could be the problem?
    iPod Classic 80Gig.
    Thanks in advance.

    Dear planb77
    Thanks for a reply. iPod does not support ntfs - you're right. that means it will never work on that. While restoring ipod using iTunes, itunes reformats it no matter what filesystem is there. So the issue is not that. ipod is now on fat32 and it works for a certain period of time, but then crashes and asks to restore through itunes. Resetting/restarting does not help.
