Getting an error message of unable to
check for software update when trying to update to
ios 8.0.2. Can someone help ??
Howdy there otss1979,
It sounds like you are unable to download the iOS 8.0.2 update either, over the air, or using iTunes. If you are updating the software on your phone in Settings > General > software update I would recommend starting with this article:
Resolve issues with an over-the-air iOS update
If you are using iTunes, I would use this article instead:
Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes
If you are getting a specific error number, the following article will help you get that resolved:
Resolve iOS update and restore errors
If this does not resolve the issue, could you please write the error message you are getting word for word for me?
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

I'm trying to email a photo from one of my iPhoto albums, however I'm getting an error message that says "The email server didn’t recognize your username/password combination." Any ideas? I can't find any help in Apple on-line support.
Never mind. I was able to find the solution via an earlier post from West. Thank you!

I got an error message that I should connect to Wi-Fi after trying to download a Book Sample from the iBooks Store. I still get this error message even after I bought, downloaded, and transferred the file to my iPad's iBook thru iTunes. Wi-Fi ain't cheap.
Hi I had a similar issue to you, I could connect to the router but no internet. Here is my explanation of how I sorted it.....I hope this works for you.
*To anyone that is reading this it appears that the problem lay in the airport setting: IPV6: set to 'Automatically'. I turned it off (after reading someones plight on MacFixIt) & everything is back to normal.*
*The worrying thing is although my problem was extreme with other computers on the network being locked out nothing was changed, one minute it worked the next it didn't. Reading on other forums it appears to be a problem with laptops (but I could be mistaken). A lot of people on the Macfixit forum are complaining of network just dropping out even when they are next to the router.*
*I hope this is the fix (although I dont know why it suddenly went to sh*t!) & I hope my hair pulling & trawling the forums can help someone else out.*

I cant use my iphone because I'm getting the error message that I must connect to Itunes and when I do it says the only option I have is to restore my phone.
Try using RecBoot or TinyUmbrella to kick it out of Recovery mode.

Every time I install an update of itunes, I get an error message saying: "/System/Library/Extensions/WkClassicNotSeizeDriver.Kext" was not installed Correctly. Has any one had it? Can you help me?
Find out what that third party software the kext file belongs to and update or use the developers method to uninstall the third party software responsible for it.
I suspect it's a iTunes extension perhaps?
You also can use the manual method of Finder > Go > Computer and opening your drive, then your System/Library/Extensions folder and looking for the file and moving it out onto the desktop, you will need to be in Admin user and use your password, then reboot to clear the random access memory. However this method doesn't remove the parent program you still need to do that.
How to uninstall/install software on your Mac
The kext file wasn't loaded, so it's not running, but removing it from the Extensions folder or uninstalling what put it there will solve your notification problem as that's all it appears to be. -

Is this an iPad issue? Not sure where you are "clicking" or how you are accessing. A little more info would help.

When trying to download the ISO 7.1.1 update, my iPad goes through the downloading process and then goes to the preparing mode and after a while returns a message that the "Software Update Failed, an error occurred downloading IOS 7.1.1 ." Any suggestions?
Make sure anti-virus and other security software is disabled.
Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Use the steps to troubleshoot security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See the steps under the heading "Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store." If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting -
I have now had two error messages - the first one looked for this script: Script: resource://gre/modules/XPCOMUtils.jsm:258. The second one (today) looked for Script: resource://gre/components/nsPrompter.js:68.
I have reset my word template, also reset word registry for data and options (as per Microsoft's help pages) for both those 'fixes' there was an initial improvement, but the problem happened again after I reposted on my blog today and then went to Windows explorer to view my files. It seems to 'seize' as I select a file, so that the preview does not appear (for up to 15-20mins).
I see on the internet using the second script as a search just now that one other has had a similar problem and one also since Mozilla 4 upgrade. My problems have also been pretty much since I upgraded.
It happens (apart from my fixes) every time I go to look at a word document via Windows explorer. Excel files are less affected.
One web suggestion is to clear the cache, but I am hesitant to lose all my passwords unless I have to.I still have the problem although I uninstalled Mozilla (clearing the cache didn't work and neither did Word diagnostics), so have ended up thinking it could be Norton (the manual update worked x1) or Windows. Today I found an answer: disable the preview pane in Windows Explorer - there's a history of problems with this view.

I get a message that my network connection has timed out while trying to update my iPhone on iTunes. Has anyone else had that problem and if so what solutions have you found? I was told to turn off my firewall and/or virus protection while updating but am nervous about doing that for obvious reasons. I'm also disgusted with Apple not providing free tech support.

Getting an error of limit of 500 photos for published album when trying to upload to Flickr
I'm trying to upload to my Flickr Pro account and I am now getting an error message saying:
"You may put a maxiumum of 500 photos in this published album. Only the first 500 photos will be added to this published album. If you want to publish more photos, publish another album."
This happens only when I'm trying to upload to a specific set which has 111 photos on Flickr. If I try to send to another set, it works. I can work around this, but I'd like to figure out what's going on.
What does this actually mean, and how am I able to continue to publish to the correct Flickr set?
Thanks.Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. The RSS feed is http://www.lifeinnortheastohio.com/the-panel-scanners/rss.xml

Every time I plug my Ipod Nano or Ipad 2 into my computer I get the same error message. It says that registery settings are missing for importing burning cds and dvds due ot other burning software and to untinstall itunes and reinstall Itunes. I've done this several times and I'm not having any trouble importing cds at all and I can't make the message go away. It always comes up before Itunes will open.
I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)
