Iphone 4 went into recovery mode when trying to restore, only option available now is to "restore and update" however this will not work, how can you restore from a backup once in recovery mode and only option is "restore and upgrade"? Please help!

HT4437 I have followed all relevant steps, my iPhone5 and apple TV are connected to the same wireless network, but I still cannot use airplay. When I choose the airplay option on my phone, the only option I get is "iPhone"

Welcome to the Apple Community Willy.
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
Restart your mobile device.

What for an error? We need some more information about your problem.

HT4859 I backedup iphone 4 and iphone 5 to icloud. I need contacts from the ipone 4 backup but I do not have that phone anymore and icloud will only let me restore the iphone 5's backups now. Is there anyway to get the contacts from my previous iphone 4?

I backedup my iphone 4 to the cloud before upgrading to an iphone 5. I also backedup my iphone 5 to icloud. I can see both phone's backups side by side on the my screen on icloud. But it will not allow me to restore the iphone 4 backup to my iphone 5. I need contacts from the iphone 4 backup but I do not have that phone anymore and icloud will only let me restore the iphone 5's backups to my iphone 5. Is there anyway to get the contacts from my previous iphone 4 backup?

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons

iTunes states " There's a problem with your Iphone, please contact apple service center " Also i took my iphone to a local service man and he told me the IMEI code has been corrupted and there's nothing that can be done about it. Please help, if you have any solution.
Thank you

On some sites we get sec_error_unknown_issuer SSL error due to missing root certificate TC TrustCenter Class 2 L1 CA XI. Firefox is the only browser having this issue. Why is that certificate not preinstalled and shipped with Firefox?

You are not sending the TC TrustCenter Class 2 L1 CA XI intermediate certificate
*http://sales.sauer-danfoss.com/
Web servers need to send all required intermediate certificates to build the chain to build-in root certificates.
You need to install that intermediate certificate on your server.

You can test the certificate chain via a site like this:

The below vi is not giving me what I want. If I select 2 with maximum number of 3 then there are 3 array elements display that is correct but if I select 8 with the same maximum number of 3 then only 1 array element display. Why is that?

It's because in case 2 you hold the array build result from the previous loop iteration in a shift register...in case 8 you do not...
You say that if you set the maximum number to three it will produce an array with three elements, that is not correct, it will run when the iteration index is 0,1,2 and 3...resulting in 4 elements. If you want 3 you need to decrement the maximum number to 2. The same goes for case 8.

I want to back up an Iphone 3G and put all the content into Iphone 4. When Iphone 4 is connected to Itunes I do not get an Option to restore from Iphone 3G. IOS 3G - 4.2.1

I want to back up an Iphone 3G and put all the content into Iphone 4. After I have backed up the Ipone 3G and then when Iphone 4 is connected to Itunes I do not get an Option to restore back up from Iphone 3G. The only devive is see in the drop down list is my Iphone 4. The IOS on Iphone 3G is 4.2.1 and on Iphone 4 is 4.1.
Please share if anyone has any solution to such a problem.

You will first have to update your iPhone 4 in order to restore it from the backup of your 3G. Follow the directions here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
This is an erase/restore deal, so make sure all of your data is on your computer before you begin. iOS 6.1.2 will be installed on your iPhone 4.
Once done, on your iPhone 4: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. You'll now be able to restore your 3G backup to your iPhone 4.

TS1538 when trying to sync with itunes my only option is restore

when I try to get my music onto my iphone 4s the only option I get in itunes is restore. I was able to transfer everything else.....any ideas?

This problem is quite common, but I have not been able to figure out what causes it. My best bet is that it's a USB issue, and I have found a workaround that makes synchronising possible when all else fails. For the record, I have tried all of the potential solutions on these forums without lasting success. Here's what worked for me.
(Windows 7 32bit, iPhone 4S, iTunes 10.6.1.7)
First of all, make sure you have a good wi-fi signal in the region of the PC you are syncing with. Then -
1) Start iTunes.
2) Connect phone via USB.
3) Left click on phone in iTunes.
4) On the Summary page check "Sync with this phone over Wi Fi"
5) On the phone go to Settings>General>iTunes wi-fi sync
6) Tap on Sync now.
The phone should sync via wi-fi, even though it is connected via USB. It didn't seem any slower to me than syncing via the cable, and more importantly it worked, and the backup went smoothly. I've tried it several times now with no problems.
Also, if you have a lot of apps you need to synchronise or you are re-arranging the app windows using iTunes you can sync in the normal way from the PC if you do it immediately after the wi-fi sync, because iTunes does not run the backup again. It probably won't run two backups within a few minutes of one another.
It's all a bit of a fiddle, and Apple/MS needs to get a fix for it, but if this method works for you at least you have a good backup should you flush your phone down the toilet!
Good luck!

Sync option not showing only option to Restore or Set Up New???

When I hook my iPhone 3g to my Mac it only gives me the option of Restoring from a backup or setting the phone up as new. History: the other day the phone slowed down and finally became useless so I plugged it in and restored from the previous days backup. In a hurry I hit the road for a couple dayze and didn't think anything of it since all was fine now. Until... 2 days ago when I wanted to Sync new info I had entered and was presented with only the aforementioned options and NO sync options. The phone shows up with the right name in the side bar but I have no tabs in the center window on the option to Set UP as New or Restore.
I have rebooted the phone a couple times and have the latest version of iTunes - I don't want to set it up as new -- cause seems to me I would lose all of my data like new entries in address book etc.
anyone have any solutions please????
Here's where you can see a screenshot: http://www.zargon.com/iphonewontsync.jpg
Any and all help/advice will be appreciated.
Send mailto: [email protected] if you have a hot solution.
TIA - Zargon

You can try this, but no guarantees.
1. Turn off automatic syncing (iTunes Preferences: Devices: uncheck auto syncing)
2. Plug your iPod in. When it is recognized, right click on the device and select Backup
3. Restore your device and use that backup to preserve your settings
The risk is that whatever happened to your iPod is going to be restored and you are going to have the same problem all over again. The only thing to do is either use the older backup or restore as new if that is the case. Good luck with it.

Is the only way to restore my iphone on itunes?

I can also restart my iphone from Settings and it looks as if it gets the same results. Will restarting my iphone to it's factory settings be like getting a brand new phone? A while ago, I went to my local Apple Store and they used a website that gave her the history on that iphone i.e. Unclean reboots will restarting my iphone remove that?
