Do I need to download the software to restore my iphone every time I restore one and should it take 3 hours?

Do I need to download the software to restore my iphone every time I restore one and should it take 3 hours?
I have an iphone 3G and an iphone 3GS and apple prompts me to download the software for each every time I use the restore function, this takes an (itunes) estimated 3 hours.
Thanks in advance.

Yes, that's correct - I misunderstood your question - I thought you meant you were downloading mutliple times for the same phone.
Apple provides separate files for each iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad model - with iOS and iCloud, this will improve since you'll only have to download the updates, not the complete file

If the above Support Article does not resolve it... then you have a problem.
Perhaps a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is required..
Be sure to make an appointment first...
Note:
That error message may be indicative of the Device being Hacked / jailbroken.... If this is the case then you are on your own.

Yesterday, since I downloaded the latest version 3.6.6, every time firefox opens and when I click on something, I get multiple error windows that say "ERROR: Security Manager Vetoed Action". I can't hardly use if anymore because of all the window pop-ups. What can I do? Can I go back to an older version?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I downloaded version 3.6.6 yesterday

hello, when this is happening after you've already updated firefox with your admin account, try to delete the ''updates'' folder and ''active-update.xml & updates.xml'' within the %localappdata% folder of your restricted account like it is described in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_Update#Software_Update_not_working_properly

Hi, how can I limit the number of emails I can see on my iPhone 5. Every time in delete one and older email gets added from my live.co.uk account (where I want to keep my 2500 emails) I just don't want many on my phone. Thanks

You can't. Why on earth would you attempt to manage 2500 emails with setting up a folder structure or some means of doing so? Simply keeping them in an single inbox is not realistic, no matter what email client you use.

I dropped my iPad mini on the floor, but it was not at all a big drop and landed firmly but the lightning cable inside my iPad cracked and from now on I have been using my sisters iPad charger(the same as old one) and now it take 4 hours to charge 8% HELP

It sounds like the drop damage more then just the lightning adapter.
I suggest you take it to Apple and ask them to check it out for you.

10 seats of Creative Cloud, do I need to download the software 10 times?

I just bought 10 seats of creative cloud and the download is taking forever. Do i need to install the software on each computer individually, or can i stick it on a flash drive/DVD or something and install it using that?

Creative Cloud Team and Enterprise allow for the usage of the Creative Cloud Packager: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/packager.html

I downloaded the software for my my iphone 4 but it still says im not a authorized person but i bought this phone...HELP

i connect my phone to my comp and my iphone wont pop up in my itunes....

You are someone had to put a check in the box to encrypt your iPhone backup.
Warning: If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password you can continue to do backups and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync.
If you cannot remember the password and want to start again, you will have to do a full software restore and when prompted by iTunes to select the backup to restore from, choose Set up as a new device.

HT1918 How do i change the update ID for my iPhone every time I have an update some other ID appearse

When I want to update my apps I just cant because another ID user is registered and I can't find away to change that

Is your account signed in on the iPhone (Settings > Store) ? If not then tap on the id that is logged in and then log in with your account. But if those apps were downloaded via the account that is currently appearing, then only that account will be able to download updates to those apps.

Firefox will not keep igoogle as my home page. I have done all of the steps to do so but every time I log off and then comeback, google is gone. This is a new problem; igoogle on Firefox has been my homepage for years.
