HT1338 Help!  My computer won't update!

I updated my iphone 4 with the new software directly from my iphone.  When I went to plug it into my computer, it said I didn't have the current iTunes.  I downloaded the new version of iTunes but can't insatll it because my IOS software isn't up to date either.  When I go to the apple icon in my left hand upper corner, I click on software updates and it tells me its up to date.  So I tried going to the apple website to download it directly from there and there is no where on the website for me to download the current version.  I only find several pages about how great the new software is, I just can't download it!  Help!!   As a result of all this, my iphone won't sync, and I no longer have any music available on my phone from my itunes match!

I do the software update and it says no updates available but it is in Version: 10.6.8 i think... i need to update it and it wonk work PLEASE HELP! It is the earlyier version of the Macbook Pro. if that helps... I also have some audio problems like when i up the sound it has a cross and says its full. the only way to fix this is to do -SLEEP- and put in headphones then open it.

    OS 10.6.8 is the latest, so that is why it cannot offer you a further update, as you are currently up to date.
    10.6 is called Snow Leopard

  • HELP! Shuffle won't update songs

    I have been trying to update my shuffle song list but it won't let me. The shuffle recharges and plays ok but won't let me change the song list. I have uninstalled and restalled the IPod & Itunes but that doesn't fix it. Has any one else had this problem and fixed it?

    You're not the only one. My son's shuffle is now completely useless- NOTHING will help in anything I have found. He has no songs and no ability for itunes to put anything on it. Try explaining that there's nothing to be done about it (short of buying a CD player and just burning CDs-how 90s!) to an 11-year-old who LOVES music.
    My own shuffle won't update and itunes shuts down immediately when I click on the shuffle autofill button.
    The obvious culprit? The most recent update of iTunes. I think there's a software glitch, and I'm very upset that the people who wrote this stuff didn't check it out before the autoupdater ruined people's enjoyment of their shuffles. Everything was fine before I updated. GRRR!!!

  • Please help, LUMIA 920 won't update.

    Hello
    First let me say that I've had my NL0920 for six months and love it, but I am really frustrated that even 5 months after Amber came out my phone won't update and even fails updating when I try using other methods that have been discussed here.  Please help, this is really frustrating because I don't have any of the Amber goodness and at this rate I know I will also miss the Black update.  Even though I love my 920 I fully expected it would be updated fairly constantly as that was one of the main things that were easy to see from the press about Nokia.
    I have a Nokia Lumia 920 type RM-821, white (RM-821_lta_lta1_546)
    product code 059S1L6,
    configuration ID 153556,
    Label ID 1232.5957.9200.10211.142,
    Application Version 3.3.32
    Mobile Operator 000-PR
    Accesories Agent 2.6.2.1
    Feedback to Nokia 2.5.0.17
    Firmware Update Notifier 1.0.1.7
    Nokia Share 2.1.2.3
    Silent Installer 1.4.1.2
    SIM Unlock 1.0.0.5
    Software Version 1232.5957.1308.0002
    The phone is an unlocked Puerto Rican Country variant and is being used in Panama Central America with the Claro Operator.  According to the Global Availability page (http://www.nokia.com/global/support/software-updat​e/wp8-software-update/) the Country variant should already have the amber update available.
    When I try checking for phone updates through the Settings menu, it tells me that my phone is up to date, which is obviously not true.  
    Please help.  I love this phone but if it won't upgrade then I am going to have to start looking at something else, because I really hoped I would get the new camera improvements, and the same with the black update.

  • Help! Computer won't detect mic unless webcam is plugged in...

    Has this happened to anyone else? I have 2 different headsets and my computer won't detect the microphone on either on unless the webcam is plugged in. It doesn't seem to have any problem with the speakers, but I can't use the mic until I plug in the webcam. Please help! This is really annoying!!
    Oh, and I'm using Windows Vista, and the Live! Cam Notebook Pro (VF0400) with the headset that came with it and another headset (not a Creative headset).
    Message Edited by triciater on 11-28-2007 11:33 PM

    hm... yes! you have same problem as me. I can't change to another mic till webcam is plugged. And this is due to the fact that the webcam has a built-in microphone inside.Moreover in my case, it must be another problem too, because the other person with who I talk hear sometimes a strong noise. I need to change microphone in the Skype options (I go to the Microsoft Microphone, even if it can hear nothing) and I go back on the mic of the cam. The noise disappear for some moments... after again and I do the same.Could someone help us?For me it would be nice to deactivate the mic of the cam and use an headset that doesn't give this noise problem.

  • HT1338 Help since installing latest software updates I now can't open safari????

    Help since installing latest software updates I now can't open safari????

    Hi Stewartirl,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Are you only having issues opening Safari? Are you able to connect to the internet with other Browsers or using Mail?
    The article below is a good starting point for troubleshooting.  I'd start by plugging in an ethernet cable and restarting the computer.  If the wired (LAN) connection works, then unplug the ethernet cable and continue troubleshooting the wireless connection.

  • Help? iTunes won't update iPod

    When I plug in my iPod, iTunes recognizes the iPod and lists it on the column on the left as "Todd's iPod" - but it won't update the songs I have in iTunes onto the iPod. Is there something I can do to manually to make it update?

    iTunes 10.2.x requires Mac OS X 10.5.x or later. If you're still running 10.4.11 like you have listed in your profile then you need to upgrade before you can install the newer iTunes.
    If you have 10.5.x or later then just uninstall your current version and download the new one from here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/

  • HT1338 HELP! iMac won't recognize time machine backup!

    My hard drive failed in my iMac 2.8 Intel Core i5. Luckily, I had a time machine backup on a usb hard drive. Also luckily, there was a free replacement available for my iMac because the Seagate hard drive in my iMac was prone to failure. I brought it to the Apple Store for a replacement, which took about a week. When I got home to restore my system from the backup, it won't see the time machine backup. It sees the drive but no backup is selectable. I know it is there because I updated my System software to the latest Mountain Lion and you can see the files on the backup drive, with dates for the backups and everything. It won't allow me to restore in Migration assistant or Recovery Mode or anything.
    HELP!!

    Most likely, some files were inadvertently excluded from your backups, and as a result you won't be able to restore your data in Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant.
    Starting from a fresh installation of OS X, set up a new administrator account and log in. Follow the instructions on this page to associate your existing backups with the new installation.
    You should now be able to enter Time Machine and restore your user data from a snapshot.* I suggest you do this in two stages. Quit all applications except the Finder before you begin.
    Restore all the visible items at the top level of your home folder.
    Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar. Enter Time Machine and restore all items in the Library folder. Log out and log back in as soon as the restore is complete.
    Any other invisible folders or files at the top level of your home folder that you want to preserve will have to be restored separately. For most users, that isn't necessary.
    You'll have to reinstall all third-party applications from scratch, or restore them from another kind of backup, if you have one.
    *If you don't see any snapshots in Time Machine, exit the time-travel view and then hold down the option key while selecting
    Browse Other Backup Disks...
    from the Time Machine menu, which has an icon that looks like a clock running backwards. Select the backups of your computer by its previous name. If you don't have the Time Machine menu, open the Time Machine preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked
    Show Time Machine in menu bar

  • HT1338 Help my screen won't work!

    I just updated my MacBook Mountain Lion software to the newest setting. But when it finished downloading my computer screen will not turn back on! Please help? I've tried plugging it in and turning it off and on but niether methods have worked.

    Did the trick!  Not sure what I did to cause the screen to go numb, but this worked perfectly!!!  I cleaned the screen and must have inadvertently selected something that locked the screen.  This perfect solution kept me from having to run to the Apple Store.  Many thanks.

  • HELP! iPod won't update, etc.

    So my iPod has been broken for about three weeks now. The first week, I came here and was trying to fix it but I couldn't. I left it alone since it wasn't working and last night I tried turning it on. It worked, so I charged the iPod. Everything was reset and I had no songs in the iPod so this morning I decided to update it. The computer doesn't recognize it; I've tried reinstalling the iPod CD; clicking on iPod updater, but it still wouldn't work. And whenever I'd disconnect it from the computer, it turns off and resets everything again.
    PLEASE HELP!
      Windows XP  

    Did You try to put it on factory settings? Is you did, and it is still not working, check again installation of Itunes.
    But i recommend You to take it to apple service center. The'll know what to do. Anyway you have a guarantee

  • Please help! Computer won't recognize ipod when plugged in!

    Everytime I plug my ipod into my computer it won't show up under the devices section or the itunes and it also won't even say it's connected on the ipod itsself. PLEASE HELP!

    even though no one replied, I figured it out myself.

  • Please please help. Computer won't log in.

    Guys, I really need help. I shut my computer down a few days ago, and when I turned it on, it won't accept my password in thee login window. I then tried resetting the password from the master Install CD, but it won't allow me. When it asks me which drive I would like to reset the password from, if I select the CD, then the password boxes will allow me to write in them. However, if I select the hard drive, the spinning cartwheel comes up, spins for 10 seconds then the screen dissappears and goes back to the main menu of the install CD. Please help, why can't I log in?

    Do you get any sound or any video at all?
