The error message come up on the itune screen to restore the phone but it can not be restored. Now I want just the phone to be on so I can use it!!!!

Hey!
I have tried holding down the home and power button countless of times. It doesnt respond at all. Plug my phone to a charger and hold down the power button and my phone switched on. But it said Activation Required and said connect to Itunes. As e screen remains on the connect to Itunes screen, I disconnect the charger from my phone and my phone went dead instantly. My battery is full btw. Tried connecting to Itunes through my Macbook Pro but iTunes doesnt detect my device and the apple logo flashes for about a few seconds on my phone and then disappear and then came back on again. My Iphone has been connected to my laptop for about 30 mins and the apple logo has been coming on and off for 30 minutes now and Itunes has not detect my device yet.
SIGHHH.

  • I have just bought an iPhone 5 and it won't sync to iTunes.  It says it needs  iTunes 10.7, which I have downloaded and installed.  I still get the error message and looking at "about iTunes" it says 10.6.3.  What do I do??

    Perhaps check to see if you're accidentally running two different versions of iTunes. There's some information on troubleshooting that in the Opening iTunes section of the following document:

  • While trying to instal Mountain Lion OS on my macbook pro, I got the error message that my HD was damaged and it reverted to my Lion OS. Why does this happen? I bought the OS online through the app store

    While trying to instal Mountain Lion OS on my macbook pro, I got the error message that my HD was damaged and it reverted to my Lion OS. Why does this happen? I bought the OS online through the app store.

    The Mountain Lion installer looks at your internal drive to make certain that it's error-free before continuing installation. You should have an application named "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app" in your Applications folder now so you shouldn't have to download it again. Do this...
    Boot to your Lion recovery partition by holding down both the Command and the R keys while booting. Open Disk Utility from the Recovery partition and select your hard drive (usually named "Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it) and click on Verify Disk. If you come up with any errors, click on Repair Disk. At the end of the cycle you will get a message that the disk was successfully repaired or a message that the hard drive could not be repaired.
    If you're able to repair the disk, just reboot as normal and open the "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app" and the installation will proceed. If Disk Utility was unable to repair the disk, you need to get to your local Apple Store as soon as possible so that they can see if the disk is salvageable or beyond repair.
    Good luck,

  • I tried down loading mozilla firefox to use as a web browser. It was downloaded 100% then when prompted to "run" the error message comes up with a red cross and the message'This file is corrupted" and won't let me proceed. What do I do now?

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.<br />
    You can try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

  • I can't upload photos from iphoto (on my iMac) to facebook. Error message comes up saying 'error occurred with iphoto - try again later'. I've installed the latest software updates but still can't get the photos to upload. Can anyone help please.

    Hi, Hope this is in the right place.
    I'm trying to upload photos into facebook from my iMac. I've clicked on the upload to facebook icon in iphoto but just get an error message saying 'error occurred with iPhoto - try again later. I've also had problems lately when I click on a photo to open it I just get a grey screen with an exclamation mark. I've downloaded the latest software but nothing seems to work.
    Can anyone help please?
    Thanks hopefully,

    Karen,

  • Why when I try to sync my iPod does the error message come up that it can't be backed up to my computer???!

    I'm having issues syncing my iPod today! I sync once a week, I've got the latest version of iTunes, but today it tells me that it won't back up to my computer, WHY? Since updating iTunes, it keeps coming up with a separate error message about not being authorised for the library thing, after I've synced/used iTunes... Oh &amp; it point blank refused to recognise my iPad to sync. It's driving me potty :(

    I dislike technology on occasions... I shut down iTunes, plugged my iPad back in &amp; NOW it decides to sync!!! No error messages...and then it syncs my iPod with no problems as well!!! It seems that I can't start iTunes, play music &amp; then decide to sync the toys. I HAVE to just plug in the iPod/iPad and let it start up all by itself. How irritating! Thank you for responding!

  • HT203425 the recent update for IPhoto (9.5.1) will not install on my Air. The error message comes back and says there is a problem with the App store. Please try later.  This has gone on for several days.  The update installed fine on my IMac.

    I have tried installing from the App sotre updates and also the softwarre updates  - I receive the same message.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Select
    /var/log ▹ install.log
    from the hierarchical list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar. Then select the messages from the last installation or update attempt, starting from the time when you initiated it. If you're not sure when that was, start over and note the time. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).

  • Can't open Microsoft Office 2011 even after unistalling then reinstalling. Error message comes up before launch. What do I do? Can I fix this? I need to activate Microsoft Office within 15 days!!

    I recently got a new MacBook Pro Running on OSX Mavericks and used Time Machine to move my documents and applications. However Microsoft Office Student/ Home applications did not work and requested a product key. I did not have the product key for it as I had installed Microsoft a long time ago, so I purchased a new Mincrosoft Office 2011 Student/Home Pin to install Microsoft Office. Everything installed fine, however when I go to open it it failed to open.
    I need to activate my Microsoft Office within 15 days apparently and this is done when the application is launched. However none of the Microsoft Office applications do Launch (not Word, Powerpoint, Excel or Outlook).
    Whenever I tried to open one of the named above the Microsoft Error Reporting App would pop up and list the errors. I was advised on other support pages to disenable this app so I have done that but now Word is now giving its own error message saying:
    Process:    
    Microsoft Word [1380]
    Path:       
    /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Microsoft Word.app/Contents/MacOS/Microsoft Word
    Identifier:

    Parent Process:  launchd [152]

    Microsoft Word [1380]
    I don't know or understand what is stopping me from launching my Misrosoft Office. I am wondering if others have encountered similar problems with OSX Mavericks and the Microsoft Office 2011? Does anyone have any ideas of how I can get it to launch?
    I need to get hold of my Word and Powerpoint Documents ASAP.

    This indicates you had a bad install. You need to completely remove Office and reinstall using your new CD Key. See instructions here. Do not do the simple remove, Use the COMPLETELY REMOVE ALL FILES steps.
    http://www.officeformachelp.com/2012/12/office-for-mac-2011-remove-office/
    so I purchased a new Mincrosoft Office 2011 Student/Home Pin to install Microsoft Office.
    You don't purchase a PIN. A PIN is generated when you install Office. You need a CD Key. If you bought Office365, you activate online.
    I have issues with the Microsoft User Data - are there supposed to be two? and where exactly do they belon. They are in the Documents file at the moment.
    Unless you used Outlook or Entourage you can delete both Microsoft User Data folders. When you install Office it will create a new one. Only Outlook & Entourage used this folder for data. W,E,P stores it's data in the User's Library/Application Support/Microsoft folder now.

  • Getting an error message when trying to reinstall iTunes - 'Apple Mobile Device' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start the system services.

    After a recent iTunes update my iTunes failed to start. I uninstalled it and then reinstalled it again, but during installation an error message pops up saying: 'Apple Mobile Device' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start the system services. The three option buttons which can be clicked are 'Abort', 'Retry' and 'Ignore'. I tried pressing ignore, which allowed iTunes to install. However, it seemed that not all parts off the programme installed, as it wouldn't allow me to open iTunes again. Whenever I press retry it just makes the same message pop up again. How can I show that I have 'sufficient privileges'?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • HT1349 after Itunes update I receive an error MSVCR80.DLL missing please reinstall Itunes, I did a few times but it is not working

    after I-Tunes update I receive an error MSVCR80.DLL missing please reinstall I-Tunes, I did a few times but it is not working

    Okay! Thanks for the tip, David. I did what you did too, and that fixed my Apple Software Update thing. I downloaded the latest update using that program and installed using the program, and everything was fixed!
    I think it was when I had a problem installing using Apple Updater that began the problems, and installing manually just added fuel to the fire. But now everything's fine! Thanks, man!

  • Sometimes when firefox loads a web page the error message comes up stating The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded. And I know this is a valid web site. What gives?

    This happens very often. When I open Mozilla sometimes I get an error stating that "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded." When I click ok the site stops loading and the tab is titled untiled.

    This can be a problem with DDE.<br />
