Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Someone help me! my iTunes is broken and I cam't fix it

    Almost every album I download several tracks do not download fully and just cut off in the middle of the track. Now, most of the time, these tracks are available individually so re-downloading them is free. However, as usual, it has happened with a couple of tracks that aren;t individually available on two compilations I bought this week. The itunes store sent me those compilations in my account again but, funnily, after each track downloaded (for the second time) it disappeared from both my library and the entire computer! I'm getting very frustrated with this. It's been going on for months: in that time, I have had a new internal hard drive inserted into my computer and am using a different internet connection! I have un-installed and re-installed iTunes as requested by the iTunes store and STILL the problem persists. Does anyone have any clue what's wrong? I've come to expect better from Apple! I had to download the same compilation album THREE times this week because one of the mixes on it didn't download fully! I've updated to the latest version of itunes and everything else I was asked to do. This is REALLY annoying me now. PLEASE can someone shed some light on the problem? I'm using British iTunes of that helps
    Lewis

    Another thing...after having downloaded aforementionedcompilation album for the third time I noticed that most of the tracks had fully downloaded! HOWEVER I couldn't check to see if the second full length mix had been downloaded because it told me my account was bot authorised to play it! Signing out and in again didn't make a difference either! What's up with that?

  • HT3275 Time machine error, backup disk image "/volumes/data-1/.sparesbundle " already in use. I don;t know what this means, can someone help?

    My Mac mini time capsule is showing an error Time machine error, backup disk image "/volumes/data-1/.sparesbundle " already in use. I don;t know what this means, can someone help?

    I had a similar problem and I solved it as follows -
    In Time Machine - > I deselected time capsule Data Disk as a destination.
    Then I pulled the power plug on the Time Capsule, twiddled my thumbs for 15 secs, plugged the power back in.
    Went back t Time Machine -> Re-Added the Time Capsule Data Disk as destination. And then tested by selecting Backup Now.
    All went well and the backup picked up from before the problem.
    BTW - I also have a USB drive connected to Time Capsule that is an alternate disk for Time Machine to backup.
    In Mountain Lion the GUI lets you add more than one Time Machine backup destinations very easily so I think it a good idea to have redundancy.
    Hope this helps.

    I see that the number in my Adobe Account is a MAC serial number – I purchased both the Mac and Windows versions of the program. I tried to enter the serial number of the Windows version into my account and it says it’s already registered. But when I installed the Windows version on a Windows computer I got the invalid serial number message. They have two different serial numbers! Can you help me with this?

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    Macs:  iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

  • Hello can someone help me I have an iphone 4 and my daughter has an ipod touch we are on the same email address but somehow with in the last 25hrs all of my contacts are gone and only hers on on my phone is there a way for me to get all my contacts back?

    Hello can someone help me I have an iphone 4 and my daughter has an ipod touch we are on the same email address but somehow with in the last 25hrs all of my contacts are gone and only hers on on my phone is there a way for me to get all my contacts back?

    If you need assistance with finding any of your restores or attempting to restore from any that happened prior to his incident follow this article
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    IF you do find a backup that has your contacts; I'd /highly/ recommand turning off your wifi network after the restore is finished because if the issue is with your iCloud your contacts may merge back with her's.
    With iCloud you DO NOT want to share the account; bad things happen Evil evil thigns...
    But in all seriousness; if two devices have the same iCloud; iCloud is told to merge and sync infomation between hte two and can't tell that it doesn't belong to the same person

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    If you get the corrupt error message then go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and select the backup and delete it.

    - 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.

    Connect your iPhone to your computer. Tp your pc should recognize your iPhone as a camera. Use what ever application you have on the pc to transfer files from a camera to your computer.

  • Suddenly no sound... Please help. Been trying to fix it for last 3 hrs.

    Can someone please help me with this no sounds issue. I've been trying to fix it for the last 3 hrs. until I've reached the point of wanting to hurt it. So I'm really hoping someone has had this problem before and knows what to do.
    I've checked all of my settings. Everything to do with the ringtone sound as well as alerts, the sounds it makes when you send or recieve text.. Just non of the sounds at all work. Not even the clicking sound that the keyboard makes.
    I've turned it off and back on after a min or two. I'm at my wits end.
    I don't know what else to do. It's the iphone 3G.

    Jim,
    Thank you, thank you, thank you. If I could get to you, I'd hug you!! Lol.
    Yes, I feel really stupid, but that's okay as long as it works now. I don't know when I did it, but that was it! I had at some point hit that switch and it never occurred to me at all to check that. In fact.. I really forgot it was even there.
    If it didn't cost so much, phone would've met wall a hour and a half ago.
    Anyway. Many thanks for your help.
    My name is Teresa btw and it's very nice to meet you. I'm really thankful that you guys are here. I'm brand new,(obviously)to the iphone. But other than tonight, I really like it.

  • HT4528 the camera on my iPhone 4s color is all weird and the shutter keeps opening and closing trying to fix its self but cant.  I rest my phone and turned it off and back on again.. how do i fix this. I only had the phone maybe six months.

    The camera on my iPhon 4s is not working correctly.  It is colored all strange and the shutter keeps opening and closing trying to fix the problem but it cant.  I have already reset my phone and turned it off and on again.  How do I fix this??

    If resetting the camera app doesn't work you can try restoring your iPhone's software. The entire process takes about an hour to an hour and a half. Make sure you do a backup. Make sure you do a backup.

  • After downloading the latest update, my playlists now go into shuffle mode everytime I try to play.  I have turn6ed off shuffle on both my computer and ipod, and even tried recreating a new list, to no avail.  Any ideas as to what may be causing this?

    After downloading the latest update for my Ipod touch, my playlists now go into "shuffle" mode everytime I try to play.  I have turned off shuffle on both itunes and my ipod and even tried recreating the playlist and syncing with no luck.  I don't know what is causing this, because before the last download, it never happened.  Any ideas on how to fix?

    Since this is an XP machine, which version of iTunes do you have installed?  Is it the latest version?
    Have you tried starting iTunes, attach the USB end of the cable, then while holding the home button on the iPod connect the 30-pin connector end of the cable to the iPod...that is the recovery mode but also should make iTunes see the iPod.
    If that doesn't work you may need to take the iPod back and have it tested by the genius bar techs to make sure the connector is not bad.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
