  • Installing IOS 5.1.1 on my iPhone failed and now is not recognized by PC or itunes.  All troubleshooting has failed.  HELP!!!

    Installing IOS 5.1.1 on my iphone failed and now the phone will not show up on itunes and is not recognized by my PC.  I tried all troubleshooting Apple says to do minus uninstalling itunes.  My wifes iphone still works fine with the same cable and itunes on my PC.  ----- Help!

    Hello. I was like this yesterday after upgrading 5.1.1. The proccess failed and the iphone only showed the USB cable with the iTunes logo.
    What I did was connect the iphone to my wife's PC, and there, with a clean itunes installation, install a clean 5.1.1. Then, went back to my iMac and connect it again, and now it works.
    But now, with my iphone working as new, it still cannot be showed up in itunes. I am still working on it.
    Good luck!

  • My macbook pro keeps saying I have 450 gigabytes out of 500 that are used.  But when I look on finder there are no files that are anywhere close to that amount.  I went through and deleted files from my mac and now I only have 10 gs free

    My macbook pro keeps saying I have 450 gigabytes out of 500 that are used.  But when I look on finder there are no files that are anywhere close to that amount.  I went through and deleted files from my mac and now I only have 10 gigabytes of additional space free. My mac now says I have 440 gigs of other that is used. But does not make sense, do I have a virus?

    Since you have not identified the OS your MBP is using, these extract may or may not assist you.

    You may also download from the Internet OmniDiskSweeper (free) and open it it will show all of the files on your MBP and the respective sizes.

    Hi Sara1
    Several of our PDF File icons on my Desktop images went blank; and, cannot be accessed now.  I subsequently received a notification from your company stating that Workspace will be retiring and all files left will be permanently deleted if they aren't down loaded from the site by a certain date in January 2015.  However, when I opened the web site, per your company's directions, I wasn't able to open the downloaded files!  Please correct this error ASAP.

  • I manually deleted back-ups from Time Machine and now I can't empty the trash

    I manually deleted back-ups from Time Machine and now I can't empty the trash.

    Using Finder (deleting Time Machine backups) to manage Time Machine files is a mistake. The remedy is somewhat easy, but you will lose all the files on that TM drive.
    If there is nothing elese on the Time Machine drive, try reformatting the drive with Disk Utility. This will effectively remove the files from that drive from the trash. If you have files on this drive, temporarily copy the files to another drive, then reformat the TM drive.

    In preferences turn on iTunes sharing in iTunes preferences and keep iTunes turned on in both accounts. Or better yet put the iTunes library on the main HD rather than in an account and set the location of the library to that location in iTunes preferences.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • How to delete the files from iPhone before selling?

    How do I delete the files from my old iPhone4 before selling?

    Hey adhot,
    Before selling your iPhone, you'll want to follow these directions:
    Before you sell or give away your iOS device, make sure that you have removed all of your personal information. Follow these steps to protect your data and get your device to its factory default state for the new owner:
    Back up your device.
    Go to Settings > General > Reset, then tap Erase All Content and Settings.
    This will completely erase your device and turn off iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, Game Center, and other services.
    If you are using iOS 7 and have Find My iPhone turned on, your Apple ID and password will be required. After you provide your password, the device will be erased and removed from your account so that the next owner can activate it.
    Contact your carrier for guidance on transferring service to the new owner.
    When the device is turned on for the first time by the new owner, Setup Assistant will guide them through the setup process.
    Important: Do not manually delete contacts, calendars, reminders, documents, photo streams, or any other iCloud data while signed in to your iCloud account, or the content will also be deleted from the iCloud servers and all of your iCloud devices.

  • Was advised to delete system configuration file from hard drive and now computer will not start - any help would be appreciated.

    Downloaded Yosemite and since then cannot connect to internet or bluetooth mouse - was advised to delete system configuration file from the hard drive and since then cannot start up computer. Any help would be appreciated - cheers.

    Boot the MBP with the OPTION+COMMAND+R keys down.  The result should be a display showing a revolving globe.  By following the instructions, you will be able to reinstall the original OSX.  Then you may reinstall Yosemite.
    A solid Internet connection will be required.

  • Can you help me delete imported photos from iPhone (4s) running ios 7?

    I made (what appears to be) the mistake of importing photos from my PC to my new iPhone 4s using itunes.  They now seem to be permanent occupants.  I can select them (in the "Moments" view in the Photos app)  but the trash can on lower right is always grayed out.  It appears that in ios 6 they could be deleted in the Settings/General/Usage (I also synced over some music which is deletable here).  Can anyone help me? 

    Thank you razmee, I will give that a shot and get back to you.  I was just looking at that grayed out trashcan icon an thinking there was probably a way to light it up. 

  • Delete imported photos from iPhone camera roll?

    In iPhoto, after importing photos from my iPhone I would get a prompt to delete the photos that had just been imported from the camera roll. Since the Photo Stream was implemented though, most photos would have already been imported through iCloud before I connected the phone to my Mac. iPhoto would then give an option to remove all photos that had already been imported.
    The new Photos app no longer appears to have this option. I can tick to delete items after import, but I can't automatically remove all items in the camera roll that have already been imported. If I go and manually delete those photos from the camera roll on the phone, it also deletes them from the Photo Stream, and they disappear on my Mac and iPad as well.
    I'm not subscribed to iCloud Photo Library. How can I make sure that all my photos continue to import onto my Mac and stay there, without keeping all the originals on the phone forever?

    Yes... a real surprise (not a pleasant one)
    Only workaround I know of (and have used already in testing and getting setup) is to use the Image Capture app in your main Applications folder (a standard OS X utility).
    After you've imported your pictures manually from your iPhone to Photos, you can run this app and then delete what you will.
    I imagine the reason for this is that PhotoStream should be taking care of this. You don't need to have the iCloud Library turned on for this to work, and photos should import automatically.
    However, there are three issues with this:
    Buggy: I found (at least prior to iOS 8.3) that not all of my photos on my iPhone went to the Photo Stream... never did find out why some didn't make it.
    Buggy again: Many people are having issues with the latest releases getting Photo Stream to sync from an iPhone
    You don't want your photos in Apple's domain.
    In which case, using another app to mass delete your photos on your iPhone is (for now), your only choice.

  • Deleting photo files from iPhone 4s

    After updating my iPhone 4s to iOS8 the photo app has changed.
    There's all kinds of different files all called something with "from My Mac"
    I can't delete the files OR the pictures inside the files and this is really annoying. I just want 1 single file with all my pictures, that's all.
    In iTunes when I click on Photos when my iPhone is connected I have deselected the "sync photos from" and clicked delete photos but they're all still there.
    How the **** do I get rid of these stupid files and pictures?!
    It's not even pictures I've taken with my iPhone. It's just random pictures from my macbook.
