HT1688 I did a back up and now trying to do the restore and it KEEPS saying there not enough space - I've deleted all kinds of things but it still keeps saying that. It shows more space available than what is actually used.
I'm tryin to get my iPhone 4s unlocked and I was told to do a back up and restore - well, over and over it says I don't have enough space for restore and I've already deleted a lot
Morning Bodance,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
There could be several reasons why this could occur.
For more information on this, take a look at this article:
iOS: 'Not enough free space' alert when trying to sync

Best of luck,

I backed up my iPhone to my computer before I did the ios 8 update and now when i go t restore it it tells me there isnt enough space on the iphone. I lost half of my pictures in my camera roll. Is there anyway i can get these back?
You did import these important photos over to an alternative storage medium, just like you would with any digital camera, right?

I want to watch the movie now not in another hour or so. If I have to wait the following day to see the rest of a movie, I should get another day of rental.
Unfortunately even if it's all downloaded, doing relatively simple things can flush the whole download and require it to load/buffer again as you have found.
AppleTv 2 has been programmed with an assumptiuon everyone has fast unlimited broadband which is untrue - they could easily code the unit to keep the download until you deleted it even if that limited some other activities on the unit until you selected to delete the film. You should at least have a choice andf not have to redownload.

You may find renting in itunes gets around this but some things will only be SD and will need to download fully to itunes before it'ss play in AppleTV under Computer>iTunes>Rentals.

hi all, i just updated my iphone 3gs with 5.0 ios version and now i cannot configure the iphone with it because itunes is not recognizing my iphone
Contacts are NOT part of the iTunes backup. If you had read the User Guide when you got your phone, you would have learned that Apple recommends you synch your contacts for safekeeping to your computer (Outlook, Address Book) or a cloud service. Using the phone as your only source of your contacts is foolish as the phone can easily be lost, damaged, stolen, or the data become corrupt.
If you've been using your phone as strongly recommended, your contacts are safe and sound on your computer or cloud service ready to be synched back to your phone. Of course, you should be backing up your computer regularly as well.
If you haven't been doing this, your contacts are likely gone. -
I used my boyfriends Apple ID cause mine wasn't letting update anything now my Apple ID is now saying there's a billing problem i put all my stairs in but still won't let me update anything an it's making my phone really slow what so I do?
Hmm, im pretty sure your not alowed to use a debit card as a method of payment , your options are credit card ( visa, mastercard etc ) but to clarify is it letting you download free stuff ?

How do I enable a calendar subscription in my iCloud calendar? I'm using a Windows laptop (Home Office 7) and am trying to get the rugby and footfall fixtures to appear on my iCloud calendar. Thanks for your help.
I suspect you had the same issue I did and downloaded the 64-bit version of the OpenSC libraries, but your firefox is 32-bit. You can see the opensc-pkcs11.dll in the System32 folder via windows explorer, but when you browse that directory via firefox to add the module, you are acutally being redirected to the SysWOW64 directory. Try intstalling the 32-bit OpenSC libraries, and adding the appropriate library from the C:\Windows\SysWOW64 directory.

HT1414 If you did a back up on your iphone 3gs will the contacts and apps still be on the back up?
If you did a back up on your iphone 3gs will the contacts an apps still be on the back up?
Backup do not contain apps (or any media). As far as your contacts go, Apple isn't crystal clear on this ... they seem to indicate that only your Favorites and recent call history is backed up, not your entire set of contacts. To play it safe, backup or transfer your contacts to your computer in case they do not come back after re-loading your backup. There are apps available that can export/import contacts for you.

Contact the previous owner as soon as possible and ask them to erase the device and remove it from their account.

i have an iphone, imac and 2 ipod touches 5th generation. I just purchased some apps and songs on the ipad with hopes they would transfer to all the other devices. some of them did go to all devices while others did not. when i go to purchases on one of the ipods they show up as not purchaced (even though they may be on 2 of the other devices). my iphone has them there, but it says waiting to download. its been a day and they are still waiting to download. I've checked settings on all and they are set to automatically download and all devices share the same apple id. not sure what ive done wrong and have tried several things. hopefully i haven't confused you too much.
My problem was that Software Update didn't check for updates every day, and maybe never...
Finally I found that: http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20120824124203635
Basically all you have to do is open the Terminal and type:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist ScheduleFrequency 1
The number, 1 in this case, means the frequency which Software Update is going to check for updates, so 1 means every day.
If this doesn't work you can try two things (or both, but in this order)
- Go to /Library/Preferences/ and delete the file: com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist, then open Software Update... to create a new file, and go to System Preferences to configure it again. Finally open the Terminal and try the command at the beginning of this comment.
- If Software Update continues without checking for updates every day, open the file: com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist and you will see a preference that is: ScheduleFrequency with the number 1 at its right and you will see that the type is String, copy the file to the Desktop (for example) and change the type String to Number, then drag the file in the Desktop into the Preferences folder and replace the first. It will work. (For this part you will need Xcode) -
When i dropped it, the screen went crazy and now I see a whole bunch of random colorful lines on the screen and I am unable to press anything. I want to restore the phone to factory settings, but when I connect to iTunes on my Mac, it is saying that I must enter the passcode, which I cannot do, because of the screen. It also says that I can't restore my iPhone because Find My iPhone is on. In order to turn it off I have to unlock my phone and turn it off through the phone but i can't!! Someone please help me
If you turned on Find My Phone in Settings > iCloud, login to your iCloud account, go to Find My Phone, select the iPhone and do a remote erase.
If you did not turn on Find My Phone there is nothing more you can do...take it to an Apple store genius bar for an out of warranty replacement, in the US that is $269. -
It is crazy but in the apple store they set up the icloud for me and then I started sync the iphone against the icloud and i had some photos in streaming because they recommended to do like that. After that, the space got not enough and they asked for more more to increase the space, so I decided to come back to the previous method and sync my iphone with itunes via usb. Well, the email address that i had for my apple id became unavailable so i had to create a new account this time with gmail and since then, i cannot sync my iphone. I have done it today and i have lost my contacts and the calendar is no ,onger sync. I am using outlook to manage my mail and when I look for the i cloud it asks me for the old email address which no longer exists and does not match with the current one.
Can anyone help me?Nevermind, I figured it out!

Hi i had made internet recovery for my mac, and now trying to instal the osx on external hard disk
Hi , i had my mac showing the question mark box. So i made internet recovery, and now i'm trying to download the osx lion on external hard disk as it shows , but its failing again, i dont know why
mamdouh elchami,
which model MacBook Pro do you have? If I understand you correctly, you have already made a successful OS X Internet recovery to your internal disk, and now you would like to install Lion on an external disk. Was it Lion that you had successfully downloaded and installed to your internal disk? -
I downloaded the newest version last week of Firefox and now I cant use Forefox. When I open the internet it comes up fine to my homepage (MSN.com), but after 5 seconds or so it locks up and I get "Firefox is not responding" and I cant shut it down or anything....... I have had to use Internet Explorer to do my job and I like Firefox (when it worked) SO much better. Anybody suggest anything???
P. S. Just got brave and uninstalled iTunes and re-installed it. Got the same error message: Entry Point Not Found - The procedure entry point ADAdPolicyEngine_DidEnterStation could not be located in the dynamic link library iAdCore.dll
Now I can't get to iTunes at all. Help, please!

I upgraded to a iphone 5 and transferred my music to my new phone. Apparently what i think is happening is that my purchased music is automatically downloading to my iphone and I do not want this. I have checked manually manage music etc on itunes and turned off music from icloud on my phone so I think im ok there. My problem that I am having is that I cannot get rid of the music it already downloaded from the cloud. Please help I just want this off my phone.
I have the same problem. I have 21 songs that cannot be deleted. I have tried to delete them from my phone using itunes. I have deleted them from my itunes library completely and when I sync the phone they just keep coming back. The phone shows the cloud symbol to the right of the song title. When you touch the symbol a circle with a square in the centre represents loading the song. When that is complete I try to swipe form right to left and a delete button appears. Great! but when you touch it the song remains and the cloud symbol has returned. I have even tried a master reset on my phone to no avail. I do not have itunes Match and when I log into the cloud there is no where I can see where these songs are stored. My fifteen year old daughter has spent 4 hrs trying to figure this out and she gave up! HELP PLEASE! The songs are an album my daughter purchased from the itunes store using my ID and although she loves them on her ipod I can't stand them and can't get them off my phone. I don't even know how they got there in the first place. Arrrrgh!
