  • How to get around the connect to itunes screen

    i have an iphone 4s and when i plug it in to the wall it gets enough power to turn on but shows the symbol that it is running off wall power. so when i go through the start up steps it says connect to itunes. but when i plug it into my computer it starts to turn on then just dies. so is there a way to go around the connect to itunes phase.

    If it hasn't got iOS 5+ pre-installed then you will need to connect it to a computer's iTunes in order to activate it.

    I am trying to use Words with friends on my iphone 5.  How do I get rid of   "Connect to itunes to Use Push Notifications

    Reading some older threads from 2012 and 2011 it appears the problem was present even then.  Part of the problem was due to people using multiple or different account id's on the various devices.  In my case, I only have one ID and it is the same on all devices yet the iPhone and iPad are still throwing the same error when I try turning on iTunes Match.  This is very frustrating . . . any help out there?  Thanks.

    In PSE 10 you can click on Settings on the welcome screen and choose your preference. In earlier versions it’s best to make a desktop shortcut.

    Hello hfb8,
    I would be be concerned too if I was not able to update my iPhone.  If you have not resolved the issue, I recommend following the steps in this article for an issue like this:

  • "Connect to iTunes" icon on iPod Touch 2G???

    On Wednesday I upgraded to OS 3.0 on my 16 GB iPod Touch 2G. Everything was working fine until this afternoon when I turned on my iPod to read an e-book that I had been reading earlier and there was a black screen with an icon of a USB plug and an arrow pointing to an iTunes icon. I tried shutting down completely. It didn't help. I tried charging it with a wall plug. (I was at work and couldn't get to iTunes.) It didn't help.
    When I got home I connected it to my MacBook and ITunes, it synced and all seems to be well now, but what the heck happened? Is this a sign I have a problem lurking in the background? (And, no, it's not a jailbroken iPod and never has been.) I bought it new, I'm the only user, and it's worked flawlessly until this.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you,
    Judie

    Have you had this happen before? I haven't. I tried googling "Connect to iTunes icon for iPod Touch" and there were a couple of posts but I sensed that those folks had it happen on a jailbroken iPod.
    Did you upgrade to the new iPhone OS 3.0?
    I'm hoping someone that knows what caused this will reply so that maybe we can prevent it from happening again. It sure was a helpless feeling when I couldn't get to iTunes while at work. Now I feel like I can't depend on the iPod to always work properly.

  • My iPhone will not get past the connect to iTunes screen. I tried downloading iOS 8.0.2 and it downloaded but then cancelled because of an error. My iPhone will not do anything at all.

    So my iPhone 5s will not let me get past the connect to iTunes page.
    Thursday night I went to go download iOS 8.0.2 and it said I needed to connect to iTunes. So I plugged my cord into my laptop and it opened up iTunes and proceeded to tell me that I needed to update and restore. So I clicked it and it began updating. After over a day, and many different attempts, it finally downloaded all the way through and then said it was processing the item. After this, there was a said error and I had to restart the update. I haven't been able to use my phone at all and it will not let me get past the connect to iTunes page. Please help.

    I was able to restore my phone!!!
    I called Apple and they said there was nothing more I could do. I called my carrier Verizon and was able to get my computer to recognize my device after trying this-
    Solution:
    After trying EVERYTHING this is the ONLY thing that worked-
    I took the USB connector cable out of the USB port it was in, and tried another one on the otherside of my laptop and iTunes was able to discover my phone in recovery mode. My phone was reset and everything is fine ( thank gosh for backup copies!)

  • How to get rid of shadowed border around screen on MacBook Pro?

    Just wondering if anyone knows how to get rid of this shadowed border on the screen of my macbook pro. I think my young daughter made it appear when she was striking various keys at random on my computer when I was not there. The cursor does not work when its over the shadow (i.e. will not depress the red 'x' button to exit a window and I have to drag window out from under shadow to close it).
    It also appears in the middle of screen when airplay is turned on. (See screen shots below)
    I have been unable to find any other discussion on this issue.
    Above is screen normally and below is when airplay is turned on. Please help, thanks.

    Hi rose_hedley,
    I'm wondering if you have restarted your computer by now and if that helped.
    That border is from Exposé with Show Desktop enabled (F11).

  • Any way to get out of connect to iTunes screen without restoring factory settings?

    I accidentally started the newest update before backing up to iCloud.  Now I have the connect to iTunes screen and can't get around restoring to factory settings.  Is there anything I can do to bypass this step? Or undo upgrade?

    Hi,
    AS you have tagged this post with iOS 6.1.3 and iMessages it is difficult to tell whether you want the answer for iPhone or iPad.
    iMessages can do groups or multi-person Conversations as long as you enter the names in the "To" field before your start typing the message.
    Picture from Mac Version of Messages in an iMessages conversation (It shows Pics and Names)
    If you mean in the Messages app an AIM Buddy list can do Groups chats.
    Jabber Buddy lists vary according to the set up of the server involved.
    You don't have to turn Off the iMessages ability.
    You either start from a Buddy List or select Buddies in the Blue + icon drop down.

  • Can't get past the "Connect to iTunes screen."

    So, earlier today I found my old iPhone 4. (Currently an iPhone 5 user) I connected it to my computer and attempted to update it to 1.6.3 (iTunes prompted to me to do so) - anyways, the ISPW downloaded and began installing. About half way through I got an error message, "iTunes encountered a problem" (I don't remember the exact wording)
    Anyways, my iPhone is stuck on the "Connect to iTunes" screen, I did what apple reccommended and tried to enter recoverey/DFU mode, but, everytime it just goes back to the "Connect to iTunes" screen. I've tried several times and nothing works.
    (yes, I am using the latest version of iTunes)
