    I'v been trying to put a video from my laptop to my iphone for soo long now but i just cant, it wont let me put my video onto itunes but it just wont let me, i'm going crazy please help

    well, the video is probably in a format that iTunes doesn't recognize.  Convert it using an application like Handbrake.

  • Tried to update iphone via itunes and now all stopped working

    So, after some issues with drivers over the weekend, I decided today to finally update iphone.
    Attached phone to laptop, started upgrade.
    Now it has completely frozen with the itunes icon on the screen alongwith a usb cable.
    According to itunes the phone is in recovery mode and needs to be restored prior to anything else.
    But it simply won't do anything. It has lost and since found the driver again, itunes is working, phone is frozen.
    Apparently the best driver is installed.
    Going to work now, so will check in later.
    Cheers all.

    You will have to restore. If the option is there or available forst back up your device to itunes. After the backup is complete you may backup from restore. This will restore your device whilst at the same time keepin all of your previous data. nothing will be wiped off.

  • HT201210 My partner updated iphone 5, and it now shows 'Connect to iTunes'. Then we get 'iTunes could not contact iPhone software update server because you are not connected to the internet'. Please help.

    iPhone 5 was updated (version unknown), and now screen shows 'Connect to iTunes.  When we try to do this, we get message 'iTunes could not contact the iPhone software update server because you are not connected to the internet'. 
    Please tell me how I fix this problem.
    Thanks

    Yes, the reason you are getting the error is the phone cannot provide internet for the laptop and then update itself. It would lose connection as you erase the firmware and try to update. You need to connect the computer to the Internet in some other fashion before you connect the phone to try and fix the update problem. As Ocean20 says, and I completely agree, how would you think you could use the Internet connection of a device that is not only going to turn off and on, but is going to get completely wiped of firmware and restored? It would completely remove the device from the equation here. Does that make sense to you?

  • Updated iPhone to iOS 7, now can't sync to itunes

    I removed most of the music from my iPhone 4s to free up space for the iOS 7 update. Now my old PC, which doesn't have an Internet connection but contains my entire iTunes library, won't recognize my iPhone. It says I must have newer version of iTunes, but without Internet access, I CAN'T update iTunes. Any ideas how I can get my music from my old version of iTunes to my updated iPhone?

  • How can I send the end result (or screen shot) of a colouring tool I have just created in AS3...

    I've just created this tool for colouring in different panels of a shirt:
    http://www.artwork-king.co.uk/burghley/SHIRT.html
    I want to include a button on here that, when clicked, will email the end result of the coloured shirt to a particular email address.
    Any thoughts?

    That does make perfect sense Ned.  So I guess all I need is a reply of the web colours along with which parts of the shirt are in that colour.
    Any ideas what script to use for that?
    Current script for the colour change is:
    var bttsbp:Array = [bp_black, bp_red, bp_green, bp_blue, bp_yellow, bp_pink, bp_palegreen, bp_paleblue, bp_paleyellow];
    var set_colorsbp:Object = {'bp_black':0x000000, 'bp_red':0xff0000, 'bp_green':0x00ff00, 'bp_blue':0x0000ff, 'bp_yellow':0xf7cd00, 'bp_pink':0xff99a3, 'bp_palegreen':0xa1dd90, 'bp_paleblue':0x64d9e2, 'bp_paleyellow':0xffef7b};
    var obj_colorbp:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform();
    for(var q:int=0; q<bttsbp.length; q++) {
      obj_colorbp.color = set_colorsbp[bttsbp[q].name];
      bttsbp[q].transform.colorTransform = obj_colorbp;
      bttsbp[q].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, changeColorbp);
    function changeColorbp(evt:Event):void
      var b_namebp = evt.target.name;
      obj_colorbp.color = set_colorsbp[b_namebp];
      BACK_PANEL.transform.colorTransform = obj_colorbp;
    ('bp' being the part of the shirt, in this case 'bp' = 'Back Panel')
    Thanks for the help thus far!

  • Updating iPhone 4 ended up in recovery loop and 3194 error

    So I started updating my iPhone 4 from iOS 5 to 6....after it was on the loading screen it froze so I tried to restore it. Now I can't manage to restore it, simply receive 3194 errors.
    Has anyone received this problem? Solution ?

    Error 1600, 1601, 1602
    Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. This error may also be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.
    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

  • Updated iphone 3gs to ios5 now I can't open contacts or make phone calls

    This afternoon I decided to update my iphone 3GS to ios5 and now I find that I can not open the contacts app or the phone app which told me I had missed calls and a voicemail they just both immediately close. I tried opening the settings > mail, contacts page and that closes immediately and after creating an icloud account thing I tried to turn contacts on and it just automaticaly closes. I tried creating a contact from an existing message and it automaticaly close. I've sync'd the phone numerous times and it's the same deal. It's only these two apps that don't work
    If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated.

  • Updated iPhone 4s to ios8 but screen is stuck on white screen with apple logo and progress bar

    I updated my phone last night and my iPhone screen is white and has a gray apple logo and a progress bar which has been the same for 12 hours. The bar looks almost completel but it hasn't moved at all. my phone was also unplugged accidentally during the night while it was on this screen. would that have any effect?

    Turn it off, go into recovery mode (command R at boot), wipe everything, go back and install Yosemite. Its suggested that you are using ethernet as it goes a lot faster that Wifi and more reliable. If you do not have a ethernet cable, you can still use Wifi. Hope this fixes your problem.
