DON'T UPDATE TO 4.0.2 but if you did try this

Well hopefully you are not reading this becuase like me your were "stupid" enough to cave in to the freaking "nags" on I-Tunes and updated your I-Phone software to 4.0.2. Now your phone is no better than a coffee can and a string.
Anyway I know it has been posted by other people but I followed the advice at this link on re-booting my I-Phone after I did a "restore" on I-Tunes first. Low and behold my phone is "somewhat" faster... still has the updated 4.0.2 OS but it is noticeably better. http://www.cultofmac.com/speed-up-iphone-3g-ios4-with-a-hard-reset/48070
Good Luck!!!

  • There were some updates on my Apps.  I updated them on my iTunes but my iPad did not get the same downloads/updates thru iCloud.  Does the iCloud only works for "New" Apps or Books downloaded from the store but not the "Updates"?

    Purchased music does not count against your iCloud storage and you cannot get rid of them in the purchased tab.
    What is backed up
    You get unlimited free storage for:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
    Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Look here for help on managing iCloud storage.

  • I am trying to update Mozilla on my computer, but every time I try, it tells me to close Mozilla, even when it is. Is there a way to see if something is still open?

    Mozilla keeps telling me to download its newest version. So I go to do it. I save the file, click on run, then the Mozilla downloading wizard comes up. I keep on clicking "Next" until the it gives me the option of downloading with common settings or customizing my own settings. I click next and then it checks my existing installation. It tells me to close Mozilla. That's all it says. Close Mozilla. So I do. Then I click next again, it checks my installation again, then says I must close Mozilla. After I closed it. I suspect there's an add-on or a widget that is still open, I don't how to check what's still open. And if that's not the problem, then what is?!

  • Updated to applypreferences.sh file but the changes did not take effect - h

    my user requested to increase the number of rows allow to retrieve when running a report, I made changes to applypreferences.sh file but when closed all session of Discoverer Viewer and open it again, viewing the preferences for this report, the "*Limit retrieved query data to:* still remain 10,000 ( changed to 80,000). did anyone have the same problem ? please advise

    Hi,
    After making changes to applypreferences.sh file you need to save it and then close,but before doing that see to that discoverer components all are closed.And restart the services so it will be applied.
    If the above dont apply still then if you want to change to specific 1 or 2 users then you can login as the users and go to tools/options and change the record count.
    Hope this helps you.
    Best Wishes,

  • I'm Trying to Update from 4.2.1 but can't why is this?

    Please Help!!!

    If yours is a 2nd Gen... then iOS 4.2.1 is as far as it goes...
    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Check for Updates “...
    If an Update Appears Install it... if not... you are up to date for your particular Device...
    See the Using iTunes Section Here... How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

    Hello see I have I ipod wich I bought a month back and  when I try to update it it doesn't update even though I still have a warenty it always come written that update failed error occur it's 32GB please I would appreciate if you could tell me the solution to this ..
    Thank you

    Hi there,
    Dear Aaliyan, I think you have to connect with VPN. It may help you.
    Do not forget the power of restart! ;-)
    Otherwise I think you have to wait for new update, maybe 7.2

  • Update hangs due to lack of permission - you should fix this

    Mac-Notified that FireFox update is available. Goes to update server and stays there doing nothing. Go to "Check for Updates." Says. update is available but you do not have permission to install it. Okay, I can fix that but it would be much better if that message was delivered when it first detected that an update was available. (This is just for those of us who like to consider FireFox to be perfect)

    This is not the "problem" at all! I'm using my wife's machine so she is the principal admin. I have admin privileges but I can't re-install or upgrade FireFox (or any other program) without logging out as me and logging in as her. My "complaint" is that if FireFox can recognize this when I select "Check for Upgrades", (and tell me I don't have privileges to make the installation) why can't it tell me this when it automatically checks for upgrades? It would just make it look cleaner. This is normal Mac behavior. I know I could re-install it under my name if I wanted to but then, I would have to upgrade it all the time.

  • Why does i tunes keep bouncing and not open after I have done an update

    why does i tunes keep bouncing and not open after I have done an update ?

    Hello, romani-jo. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Try resetting your System Management Controller or SMC.  Try launching iTunes after processing these steps.  If the issue persists, try downloading a fresh copy of iTunes by accessing the second link below.

    You have an outstanding balance in your account. You have to add a payment method to satisfy that balance before you can do anything with the account including purchasing free updates and free apps.

    I want to update my current iOS from 4.2.1 to 5.0.1 for the Assistive Touch feature that allows you to have an on screen home button
    I tried downloading the file myself (not through iTunes), making sure I got the iPod 4G file. Go into iTunes and install it and it says it cannot upgrade because the firmware is not compatible
    iOS 4.2.1 - there's a clue. It begs the question about which model of iPod you have. Yes, I know you said:  (and yes, I have a 4G) by which I assume you're saying that you have a 4th generation Touch, but are you sure? This has been claimed before by people who then discover that they do not have a 4th gen Touch. Which size Touch do you have and what is the model number on the back of your iPod? If it says model A1288, that's a 2nd generation iPod Touch. Check this page  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353 for help in identifying your model of iPod.
    The second clue - and the reason I've mentioned all this, is that you then say you have downloaded the file yourself but "it cannot upgrade because the firmware is not compatible." In other words, iOS 5.0 cannot be used with your iPod. That also suggests that you have 2nd gen Touch.
    Persumbaly, you have tried connecting the Touch to iTunes and selecting "check for updates?" What does it say?

    You must contact iTunes support to get the problem resolved.

  • When I go to update my apps on itunes, it says my account has been disabled. I've done everything I know to do to no avail. I've changed passwords, I've done it all about a hundred times, but I can't get to the bottom of it...HELP Please :)

    Hi,
    I am about to pull my hair out. My itunes account has been disabled............or at least that's what it says everytime I want to update my apps....I can't do it. Then it sends me to a useless web address www.apples.com/itunes/storesupport/forassistance it never helps me. I've changed my password, etc. But I can't get my apps updated or the "Apple" in the sky to fix it...I don't know where to go for customer service....Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    I updated the software on my iphone4 tonight and ran into this same endless loop - "itunes terms & conditions have been changed" - go to itunes, aceept - back to the "T&C have been changed message" with no ability to do anything in the app store until I accepted the new terms.
    While not a very direct solution, I was able to finally accept the terms in a way that seem to register with apple by making a purchase through iTunes on my computer. This forced me through updating my payment information and updating my iTunes software to the latest edition (which I had not yet taken the time to do).  After doing both of these, iTunes took me through the terms & conditions on two separate pages, but ultimately allowed me to purchase my song.  Once I completed these steps, it fixed the problem on my phone, so now I can update my apps and download new ones without running into that loop.
    Hope this helps!!!

  • I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up. I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where  I sync everythi

    I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up. I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where  I sync everything. I have authorized this new computer so I don't know what the problem is. I can't get on my old computer with my itunes account because the computer is broken. Not sure what to do

    "I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up."
    Correct.  it does not magially appear in other places.  It will only be where you put it.
    "I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where  I sync everything. "
    Correct as well.  Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.  Syncing to another will erase the current content.
    You need to copy everything ( itunes library/contacts/pics/calendars/files/docs) from the old computer, or your backup copy of the old one, to the new one.
