Hi I just updated my brothers ipod and i have a backup for ios5.1.1 can i go back? all i want is my contacts back and i dont care what ios im on

Downgrading your iPod's version of iOS is not supported by Apple and that's all we can say on these forums.  So if you want to learn how to do that, you'll need to look elsewhere. Sorry.

    You are going to have to download and install iTunes on the computer. Your iPhone is in recovery mode. See this support document for help with that. If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

    Hi.
    What is the exact notification you are waiting? This could be possible that the device has already been opened once. Don't you think?

    Not all the sound docks accept both analogue and optical on the auxillary input - I don't think the portable ones does but may be wrong - check the user manual.
    As I said earlier all the mini optical (min Toslink) adapter does it make the optical connector fit a smaller socket, it does not convert digital audio to analogue for an analogue only auxillary input.

  • I just clean installed maverick on my computer and I have nothing in my iTunes library, how can I get back all the music I have bought?

    I just clean installed maverick on my computer and I have nothing in my iTunes library, how can I get back all the music I have bought?

    From your backups. By doing a clean install you erased your startup volume. You may have installed OS X, but your personal software was erased. You can restore from backups if your have them. If not, then you've lost it all, permanently.

    What version are you using? Were you editing inside a project, or did you open a clip into the timeline?

  • I just bought my first Ipod and i have a QUESTION can anybody pliz answer ?

    Ok so i have like 30 videos in my imac that i have purchased from itunes. I moved all of my videos to my ipod the first day i bought it. So here's my question...i already have all the videos in my ipod, If i erase them from my imac can i transfer them later from my ipod to my computer again or i can't do that ??? I just want to know that because i'm planning to buy more videos (as soon as Apple fixes Itunes) and i don't want to use that much memory from my imac......

    The basic answer is no, (although I note what turingtest2 says - and tt2 is far wiser than me!)you cannot transfer music or videos from an iPod to iTunes. Other people can and probably will point you to software that helps you recover files lost from your computer but still on your iPod, so there is a way, but... (I'm not sure what that software is, someone else can post that info though)
    The best way to manage your iPod (which you may already be using) is to use the Sync function which automatically manages the content of the iPod and is much less hassle (for you) and a better method than *Manually Manage your iPod* . But Sync relies on the vidoes and music being in your library _every time_ you Sync. If you remove/delete items from the library, Sync will also remove them from your iPod the next time.
    Also, it is very unwise to delete purchased music or videos from your computer, leaving them only on your iPod. If you iPod fails, is dropped and therefore broken beyond use or stolen, you lose everything. The nature of an iPod, that is being carried around, stuffed in pockets and bags and a visual temptation for thieves means that it does happen.
    Finally, there are occasions when an iPod may need to be Restored. I have not had to perform this on either of my iPods, but it does happen, so it's wise to assume that your iPod may need Restoring one day, and this procedure deletes everything from the iPod, seeting it back to factory settings. Having Restored an iPod, a new Sync will then automatically put all the content in your Library back on your iPod without you having to manually move each and every file yourself.
    So my advice is don't delete the videos. Perhaps you could install an external hard drive to increase your storage, I assume that's easy with a iMAC.

  • HT4623 I just updated my daughters 3GS and it will not activate for me.

    Hi I am in desperate need of help I just updated the software on my daughters 3GS and it will not activate no matter what I do.
    i would appreciate any help, thank you.

    You can not update an iPod Touch 3rd Generation to iOS 6.
    Only iPod Touch 4th generation can update to iOS 6.
    iPod Touch 5th Generation will come with iOS 6 already installed.
    Check this page out:
    http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new scroll to bottom of page to "iOS 6 is compatible with."
    You will have to place your device into recovery mode and set up as new.

  • I updated to new ios and now it is not syncing properly.  How can i revert back to the previous installed version?

    I updated to new ios and now it is not syncing properly.  New songs are not showing up on the ipod display but when I view the device on my computer, they are in the playlist but there is a dashed circle beside the missing songs.  It previously synced perfectly before the IOS update.  How can i revert back to the previous installed version?

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.

  • I just bought a new iMac and only have the aperture cd, how do i install aperture 3 back to my new iMac

    i just bought my new imac but i only have the aperture 3 cd and do not have a drive how do i install aperture 3 or where do i download from and then just insert the cd key.

    You either burn a disk image of your CD (using Disk Utility) on a mac that still has a drive and transfer the disk image on a thumbs drive or network, or download the Aperture 3 Trial Installer.
    Download it here Aperture 3.1 Trial
    After running the Trial installer go immediately to Software update in the -menu, and only after updating to the most recent version launch Aperture and enter your registration code to unlock the Trial.  Then launch it by double clicking your Aperture Library or clicking the Aperture icon.

  • TS1363 I have Windows 8 and an Ipod Nano 6th generation. It is not being recognized to the Itunes and I cannot download the music I just got onto the ipod. I have tried EVERYTHING in the troubleshooting. Can you help?

    I need help. I have a Window's 8 computer and a 6th generation Ipod nano.  I have reinstalled Itunes multiple times and have read all the troubleshooting ideas to do it, but my ipod is still not being recognized.  This is not the first time I've plugged the Ipod in.  I need help

    This came from another thread, but worked for me.  Problem is with newest iTunes 4.62.  Unistall iTunes, as well as its helper programs (Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support, and Apple Software Update).  Reboot, and reinstall iTunes.  It will reinstall all the other ones and you should be able to connect your nano.  Good luck.
