    how to activate iphone through itunes when u enter a wrong password?

    Hello Jacky lou
    If you cannot activate your iPhone with cellular service, then check out the first article to sort you out. If it deals with Activation Lock, then you will need to enter in the password correctly to get passed that point. Check out the second article for more information on Activation Lock.

    Weren't you getting the "can't contact the activation server message"?
    If the PC is running the latest version of iTunes, connect the iPad to the computer with the cable and launch iTunes - if iTunes doesn't start on its own. iTunes should guide you through the activation process.

  • Need help syncing photos to ipad through iTunes

    I have tried to troubleshoot an issue I seem to have with syncing photos to my ipad through iTunes.  I have done it many times before successfully.  Now all the usual tabs seem to be missing and there is no reference to photos anywhere I can see on iTunes.  This article seems to be about my issue iTunes: Syncing photos - Apple Support  However, I don't seem to have the buttons/tabs they refer to.  I am running iTunes 12 which seems to be the latest version.  Is this article still relevant?

    Hello rayver,
    There is a slight difference between how you sync in iTunes 11 vs iTunes 12. Take a look at the article below to look for your iPad in iTunes and then select the Photos tab to then sync your photos over.

  • HT4623 I just tried updating my iPad through iTunes and it said it was unsuccessful and now is telling me to restore my iPad!! why is this and I'm not sure if it did back up because my iPad will not turn on.

    I just tried updating my iPad through iTunes and it said it was unsuccessful and now is telling me to restore my iPad!! why is this and I'm not sure if it did back up because my iPad will not turn on.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • ITunes would not update Ipad soft, stating I don't have enogh space onthe PC for files, even though I just completely backed up Ipad through Itunes on the same PC. Seems like Itunes is disconected from itself.

    Itunes would  not update my Ipad soft citing insuficient space on PC to back up Ipad files. Even though I just baked up Ipad through Itunes on the very same PC.
    It seems that Itunes is disconected from itself and is not able to track processes within itself for the same device in the same session. Any solutions?

    Hello there, EllVar.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers some great recommendations for the issue you're describing:

    There is no way around Activation Lock, a security feature designed to prevent activating lost or stolen iDevices. If you don't  remember your own Apple ID, you will need to recover your Apple ID password, you can recover it here.

    Contact t-mobile where you are. Probably easiest to go to one of their

    And have you waited that long? If not, then that's why it's not done yet.
