I don't have the iPhone button, as illustrated in the first picture. I've tried the tips that are mentioned in the first few steps and still nothing. My phone won't sync at all! I'm not completely computer illiterate; but, I am not well versed either. Could someone please tell me what I need to do to bring this back so I can sync my phone and laptop (windows op system).

The screen-shot is on a Mac computer. It is very similar in Windows iTunes. Have a look at this set of instructions instead.

TS2529 if i have tried all these steps and still nothing , do i take it to the apple store?

I have tried all the steps in trying to restore my iphone 4 and now its telling that there is a problem should i take it to the apple store?

Of course it would help to know what you have tried but without that information here goes:
Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

Macbook Pro won't boot up - i have tried a few steps and still no luck

I have MCP late 2011 - running the latest Mountain Lion. I just had it at the apple store a few weeks ago for a routine checkup. Everything was fine.
I was using it last night and it locked up. I did a hard restart, got the startup chime, then the gear spinning, then shortly after the pointer appears. It turns to the pinwheel and sits forever. the white screen dims to a 'dirty white/brown' color and it will just stay like this.
I restart and enter safe boot. During the startup - I see the progress bar and it gets about 1/3 complete then the screen changes and the safe boot login page appears. I am the only user, along with the guest option. If I select my profile and password the gear will just spin forever and the pinwheel returns again. Nothing happens. If I select guest-- it will work.
Using guest - I used the disk utility. I repaired the disk - and it says everything is ok. I also repaired the disk permissions. It found a lot of problems with itunes and extensions from that. It states all have been repaired, however if I restart and then rerun the disk utility: it catches the same permission errors... like it never was repaired.
I also tried the FSCK after the command S startup ... it says it all was good but no change.
So - is it a problem with my profile? What am I missing? Is it the HDD? Is it the OSX? I travel extensively and I used my timemachine before I departed. I keep that at home as a safe copy... but now I am on the other side of the world!! AGHH!
This machine is still covered under applecare... until march. Help!?
Thanks - JC

Hello Jaycakes
The next thing to try is to reinstall OS X Mountain Lion, check out the articles below for further troubleshooting.

I'm trying to downgrade my icloud storage; however, my MAC book will not upgrade pass 10.6.8 and I don't have my iphone anymore. If there another way for me to do this? I've tried everything I can find online and of course my coverage has expired and can't call the support team.

Hello Lara,
have you already called Apple and explained your current situation, because I don't see a way to downgrade your storage plan with a Mac only running Snow Leopard and without a iOS device running at least iOS 5.
Best regards.

I downloaded the latest version of itunes and now my ipod nano won't sync. The sync process appears to lock up on the 2nd song and will not continue to sync. I let it run all night the first time and it never went past the 2nd song. I unchecked the 2nd song so a different song would be 2nd, no benefit; reset my ipod nano; shut down laptop and restarted a different time; shorted the number of songs to sync; all without benefit.

When you connect your ipod up to the computer. It should show the device, usually with the name of the device, in my case 'jordan's ipod'. This should be on the row which shows 'songs', 'albums' e.t.c on the far right. There when you click on it it should go to a different screen showing a picture of your ipod along with two buttons - Update and Restore. Click update and it should take a 2 mins while your ipod is updated to the latest version of Ios.
After updating te ipod see if there is a change in results.
PS: make sure the device is active while syncing so keep tapping the screen.
Sorry for any incorrect info, i have an ipod touch, but i've had experience with an ipod

When the apple watch is released will it be funtional with my iPad if I don't have a iPhone?

When the apple watch is released will it be funtional with my ipad if I don't have a iphone?

Found this in the Watch area "Features are subject to change and may not be available in all regions or all languages. Requires iPhone 5 or later." So, it looks like it's the way stated above.

My iPhone says that I don't have enough storage to update one of my apps so I went to delete stuff that I didn't need but every time I select what I want to delete my phone freezes, goes back to the home screen and doesn't delete anything.

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Has Apple done anything to address the issue of Mountain Lion's inability to support Epson printers? I have a Stylus Photo RX620 that now is useless. I am not a computer geek so would rather not try to do an uninstall of Mt. Lion and go back to S.Leopard

Have you tried to open System Preferences, then Print & Scan and then try to Add + a printer?
I have an Epson RX580 and am using OS X 10.8.2 and it is working as a (Bonjour) printer. My Epson RX580 is plugged into my AirPort Extreme and I can print over my wireless network to the RX580. However, I do not see any Scan options with this setup.
Anyone know anything about getting the scanning portion of the RX580 to work over the network like the printing function does with my Airport Extreme? Or can I not "share" a scanner over the USB port on the Airport Extreme? I know, kind on topic/off topic - but I think it fits under OS questions better.
Thanks for your advice!
Randy

I have an iphone 4. How do I get pictures off of my phone, and into my computer, to make more space on my phone. I want to send to my dell computer. When I tried syncing phontos on my phone before, all of the pictures on my computer went into my phone taking up my data space. I jsut want the pictures that I select to go to the computer. help!

The only pics that can be imported to your computer are pics in your camera roll, & you don't use iTunes for that. Read here:
