and restore via iTunes. The iPod is erased.
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

To restore from backup see the following. If you could not make a backup above you will have to restore from an existing (if any) backup:

If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

    HEY GUYS I AM USING AN IPHONE  3g and when i connect my device to my laptop a dialog box appears saying that an update of 4.2 is available so went for it.after the firmware is downloaded via itunes it shows that the firmware is invalid!.please help.
    AND ALSO I HAVE HEARD THAT THE IPHONE 3G CANNOT BE UPDATED TO IOS 4.2!IS IT TRUE???
    PLEASE HELP ME.

    This means that the phone you have was software unlocked to use on any carrier, or hacked. When you installed the update it restored the lock that originaly came with your phone. Not much you can do now. Apple will not support hacked phones. You will need to find out the carrier your phone is locked to and see if they offer official unlocking, or start googling to see if you can find a way to unlock 4.2.

    connect your Ipad to your Mac, choose MUSIC under your tabs at the top, drag and drop your MP3 music and press SYNC at the bottom to move songs to your Ipad
    You have to select the songs in the Music Tab of iTunes when your iPad is connected to your laptop, with iTunes running and after you have selected (clicked on) your iPad name under the devices heading. This will give you an overview of the syncing process.

  • Extremely slow downloads via Itunes 8.2

    I've used Itunes on my macs for years, currently Itunes 8.2 on a MacBook Pro. But for the last two months downloads via itunes have become extremely slow, e.g. many hours for a 20mb podcast. Downloading the same podcast directly form a website takes just a minute or two on the same internet connection.
    I have re-installed itunes and that did not solve the problem. Any other ideas?

    You should probably disable the autosync functionality first by going to Edit -> Preferences, clicking the Devices tab, and enabilng the prevent iPods,iPhones, and iPads from automatically syncing option.
    Next, authorize the new computer with your iTunes Account.  In iTunes, choose Store -> Authorize This Computer and enter in the correct credentials.
    If possible, either copy a backup file from your old computer to your new one or create a new backup of your iPod in iTunes before letting it sync.  To do this, right->click on your iPod Touch from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes and choose Backup. You might also want to take a look at this article to see what it all included in the backup.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    Now onto synced content such as music, videos, photos, etc.  For iTunes purchases you can copy them back into iTunes by choosing File -> Transfer Purchases.  For all other nonpurchased iTunes content, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering different software availbable to assist you with this task.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2452022?start=0&tstart=0
    Once the backup has been made and all other synced content such as music, videos, and photos are back in your iTunes library, restore your iPod from that backup you made earlier.  Here is more on backing up and restoring your iPod.

  • Can't play a movie downloaded via iTunes (.m4v) in either XBMC or VLC

    Hi, I hope someone can help with this.
    As a recent iPhone user I have begun to iTunes to manage and purchase my music collection; I also thought this would be a good idea for new films too.
    I have recently downloaded the digital copy of a Bluray (Star Trek; triple play) via itunes and have no problems playing the file in iTunes. However, as I still run a PC and am looking to create an XBMC box, I have since found that I cannot play this digital copy of the film in either XBMC or VLC. Both programs can play .mp4 files, but not the .m4v file that iTunes has let me download.
    Is this DRM management? Have I now limited myself to playing this film only in itunes? - really disappointed if this is the case.
    Any help or input would be greatly recieved.
    Cheers

    Try to get a refund, I'm not sure of the number but you can call 800-APL-CARE to try to get redirected to the right place to get a refund or answer your problem. I don't know anything regarding your issue.

  • How to download my iTunes on my ipad

    Attempting to download my iTunes onto my iPad

    No, you can't download iTunes to the iPad, it is already installed on the device. If you are seeing a message when to try to sync the iPad that you need to install a certain version of iTunes, that means that you have to install it on your computer.
    If that's what you want or need to do, you can download iTunes here.

  • IPAD loses podcasts downloaded via iTunes Store

    I've subscribed to several free podcasts via my MacBookPro and sync'd them with my iPAD. I tried to download some directly from my iPAD where it lets you click "get more" and browse the iTunes podcast library. I selected and download (or so I thought). I watched the downloads go through their progress and complete. I then could not find the podcasts on my iPAD. So, I don't know if they are there and lost chewing up storage on my iPAD, or if they somehow got deleted.
    I opened a support link that got routed to someone in iTunes support in India who was the most terrible support person Apple has ever allowed to respond to a question. This person has probably never seen an iPad let alone understand what I was writing about...
    Has anyone else experienced this problem? Can anyone tell me how to determine if there are lost or orphaned files on the iPAD?
    Thanks.

    Nope. I even submitted a complaint to Apple iTunes and have had no response. The person (probably in India) did not know what a podcast was. She couldn't find a record of the download in my purchase history (i had told her it was free) and sent me a bunch of BS articles from the knowledge base.
    I am very disappointed. I have used Apple support for various products both HW & SW on several occassions and nothing but the very best possible experience. This "apparent" outsourcing of iTunes support is extremely disappointing.
    I'm hoping that someone from Apple monitors this forum and at least checks this out. This is not the Apple I know and greatly respect. This is really disappointing.

  • Itunes can't play recent TV Show (downloaded via itunes) without Quicktime and can't sink same show to IPod??

    Problem 1:
    I recently bought the HD Season Pass to Please Like Me's second season, and when I went to go watch the first (and as of this writing the only) episode, Itunes kindly informed that I needed QuickTime to watch it. Installing Quicktime has not solved this.
    The QuickTime pop-up also came with a 'more info' button which according to that link, QuickTime is needed for older media (which considering this season is of the more recent variety (aka THIS MONTH) I would consider this to not be 'older'). Itunes otherwise more or less outright says that media of any variety should be able to be played just by Itunes, especially if you literally just bought it off the Itunes store.
    Itunes is updated to the most recent version. I'm running on Windows 8.
    Problem 2:
    With the same aforementioned media, when I tried to sync it to my Ipod Touch (5th Gen, up to date), I was greeted with the lovely little message that more or less said that 'x was not synced because x cannot be played on this Ipod'. Following this I went to the iTunes store on my Ipod and downloaded it from there and lo and behold, it has downloaded with no problems.
    So why is it that I had to go the more roundabout way and time consuming way to transfer the episode?

    Hello bianca729
    I would check to make sure you can download the show again. If you can, then delete the show and download the TV show again. If it still not working, then report the issue with the download with the other article below.

  • How to download from iTunes???

    Bought apps from App Store for iPad 2.  I don't use iTunes.  App was interrupted and said go to Downloads.  Terms come up, no way to accept.  So I paid for this app 3 times (it keeps sending me to the app Store to redownload).  It goes to Terms, can't accept, go back to Downloads, repeat.  Purchased shows nothing; I've bought 12 or more apps from App Store.
    How do I get the app I've now paid for 3 times if I can't accept terms???

    "You need to go to iTunes on your computer to finish downloading the apps." and to Jennifer, Demo and Chris ... Thank you!
    Ok, I do go to iTunes.  I tap Purchased and it is blank.  Downloads brings up the Terms.  I tap out but the buttons below don't refer to apps.
    This is a brand new iPad, bought from Apple in June.  Not stolen, not outdated, with a receipt as proof (to the online police!)
    I've paid for it each time when i download again from the Store. 
    I am a Windows user for 18+ years so this is unfamiliar to me.  I appreciate all those who have taken the time to help.  The extra $6 I have paid won't break me; it's the principle along the learning curve.  I realize I sound dumb, don't like that, but I need to learn so swallow some pride to learn.
