We were able to update iPhones but get an error message when trying update our iPad. Ay suggestions?
What iOS are you currently running?
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

I can't contact support directly because I need my serial number to enter chat. You access the serial number on the phone under settings. I can't because the phone won't turn on, it just says connect to iTunes. I can't call for support, because again, the phone doesn't work and I don't have a landline. Is there no way to avoid losing all my contacts, texts and pictures?!? I'm freaking out.
Your iPhone is in recovery mode.
Anything that you did not back up has been lost already.
You need to restore the phone using iTunes. You can restore from a backup once the software is reinstalled.

My wife has a new Ipad and Iphone with icloud. We also have a Imac that has not been upgraded yet that is somehow syncing with her ipad and screwing up the apps. Is there anyway to prevent this. Maybe it is thru mobilme?
I think iCloud isn't coming until this fall and not until iOS 5 is publicly available. Right now there is confusion because all this stuff is still in beta and things are under NDA and may still change.
I'd just set the 3GS up the same as currently. When iOS 5 is available in the fall (and I don't think Apple has specified beyond "fall"), before you update, there should be any number of guides to setting things up and how it will all work. http://macworld.com is a good place to look for such information. -
my wife and i both have an itunes library installed on to our separate pc's, we are now de-commissioning the pc's and are moving over to a single mac mini, can we install both libraries on to the mac mini and run them as separate libraries?
graham218 wrote:

Generally YES.
It's possible to hold separate iTunes library's on a single machine.
Generate two new folders inside the Music folder of the Mini and name them differently; e.g. man and woman.
Copy your whole library into "man" and your wifes into "woman"
Go to sharing in the system settings of the Mini and share the Music folder in your network.
After copying the whole library's to the Mini you may point iTunes to the new location at startup by holding the option key (alt) at the keyboard.
iTunes will then ask you where the library is located.
Point it to the matching library on the Mini.
That's all.
Lupunus
PS ... If you both use only the Mini you have to setup a user account for each and just copy the whole library to the Music folder in particular.

I live in Iran
Yesterday I wanted to use iTunes store for windows ; when i have open iTunes it gives me the error 0x80090318 .
I have search the web alot and i have check lots of Iranian and English website but have not find any solution for
this problem . Today I have find a software called "Hide my IP" i have opened up that
when this software was opened , itunes have said "iTunes can't verify the identify of the server "init.itunes.apple.com"".
then i have click on "continue" then iTunes said "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. An unknown error occurred (310)."
And theres a matter that i think that have a connection with this topic and thats , that when i want to go to the lots
of websites like Google Yahoo! Mail and lots of other website my both browser ( FireFox and IE ) will say" This connection is untrusted " .
I think the solution of my second problem is the solution of my first problem too !Tried all the rest on this site did not work for me
Follow the link below & this one sorted it for me, it was a conflict in programs using Winsock & I got rid of my old program,
Sorted.

Me and my partner have just brought a new MacBook. We both have individual iTunes and iCloud accounts, is there any way we can access both accounts on one computer?

my wife and i share a computer. when she looks for her info in her cloud acct on the desktop my info appears in her account. Cannot understand why her info from her phone would appear to be nowhere and mine is in her account. Help us understand this please?
On the shared computer click on System Preferences -> iCloud -> Account Details verify that each individual account is configured correctly. By default, the Apple ID used to install the computer the first time is used for all accounts on the computer, unless it is changed.

I can not access my icloud and twitter from my iphone 4. It does not give me an option to change icloud settings. After i updated my iOS, it did not give me an option to switch on icloud. Can anyone please help with this?
Hey guys I figured out how to solve the issue.
You need to go to settings>general>restrictions.
Turn off restrictions and your iCloud and twitter will start working.
Enjoy. -
My parents both have Apple ID's but my Dad wont let me buy anything but I'm on his Apple ID on my iTouch and I'm unsure how to switch the Apple ID I'm using on my iTouch to my mum's. Any help? NOTE: The thing I'm trying to buy is not an App, but it's an add-on thing for a game called Snoopy's Fair.
Tracy, see this article: iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store account
Before you change it, read that article carefully and make sure you really want to do it.
Also, note that if you are using Auto Downloading, the Terms and Conditions state that "You may switch an Associated Device to a different Account only once every 90 days." -
If my partner & I both have an iTunes account, can we home share both or somehow combine the two accounts?
As of right now there is no way to combine Apple accounts.
As for "sharing", you can go into the iTunes settings for each and turn on Home Sharing, this will make your music libraries available to each other, provided you are both using different computers. -
When I sync my phone I get my husband's phone contact list, apps, etc and the same happens when he syncs his phone. It does recognize our phones as different users so how can I stop this from happening when we sync?
Did you tick the box in iTunes to sync with the Mac address book? Are you using the same user account on your Mac, with the same contacts in the same address book?
