HT201210 Help!

I'm trying to update my iPhone 4 software to iOS7. When I tried to udate, however, it told me I did not have enough storage. So I deleted over 500 photos, 150 contacts, and about 8 apps. It still wouldn't let me, so I got onto my desktop and connected to iTunes. iTunes said "other" was taking up 4.25 GB of my storage. How do I know what that is, and how to get rid of it??

  • HT201210 Help me save my photos!

    My 7.0 update crashed halfway, phone went into recovery mode, and I am being asked to restore the system. I have thousands of photos that I stand to lose, and I rely on them for income. Does anybody know of any possible way that I can save my media? Those photos are incredibly important to me. At this point, the phone is locked and showing the usb-into-itunes graphic... Help!!!

    By design, the iphone will sync itunes content with ONE computer at a time. If you attempt to sync such content with a second computer, ALL itunes content will first be erased from your phone & then replaced with the content from the second computer. This is a design feature & cannot be overridden. Because you formatted your computer, the iphone will see your computer as a "new" computer.
    1.First, disable auto sync when an ipod/iphone is connected, in preferences, in itunes, which in windows is in the edit menu.
    2. Put one contact & one event in whatever programs you use for that purpose on your computer, they can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is to have one entry in each.
    3. Connect your phone, itunes running, DO NOT SYNC.
    4. Go up to Store>Authorize this Computer.
    5. Go up to File>Transfer Purchases. All of the purchased itunes content on your phone will be transferred, music you ripped on your own will not be transferred. You will have to use third party software to first extract that music from your phone BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING. Same for photos not in your camera roll, the photo sync is one way...computer to phone. This is one example:
    http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/index.php
    6. Right click the phone in the device pane & select Reset Warnings.
    7. Right click the phone, again, & select Backup.
    8. Right click the phone, again, & select Restore from Backup. Select the backup you just made.
    9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore your itunes content, which you select as before from the various tabs.
    You'll get a popup regarding your contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
    This article details what's included in the backup you'll make & restore from:

  • HT201210 Help - computer is telling me the backup is corrupt or not compatible! what shall i do?

    please can anyone advise?

    To The cs,
    If you open the iTunes application and then look at the menu bar, usually in the upper left corner of the screen, you'll see the Apple logo and then iTunes (and then File, Edit, etc...) If you click on iTunes in that menu bar it will give you a drop down menu. The second item in the drop down menu will be "Preferences". If you click on "Preferences" a dialog box will open and you can thn click on "Devices" and follow the other instructions.
    Hope that helps!

    Help, I just gave iTunes the assignment to update my iPhone5 to iOS7 and now it gives an unknown error (6). The iPhone is still hooked to my laptop, and shows the black screen and bright Apple with the horizontal bar, telling it's in the middle of something. What should I do?

    DFU mode? How do I do that? So far the only thing I can do is hold down both buttons to power it on and nothing is on the screen and it wont reconize on my computer....

    Try:
    Errors related to third-party security software
    Error 2, 4 (or -4), 6, 40, 1000, 9006
    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
    Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
    Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or photos.apple.com is not blocked by a firewall, or other Internet security setting.
    Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps underAdvanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.
    Restore your device while connected to a different network.
    Restore using a different computer.

  • HT201210 Help me with this error...This device isnt eligible for the request build..

    i got this message while trying to fix my friends iphone ..... The iphone could not be restored. This device isnt eligible for the request build..
    pleas help me

    Sounds like you're trying to update an older iPhone to an unsuppoerted iOS version. What specifically are you trying to do?

  • HT201210 Help please...

    Okay, so I did the "check for updates" on Itunes and when I click it, it tells me there is an update. So when I click to download it, it goes away and nothing happens. Anyone else having this problem? Is there anyway to fix it? This is really frustrating becuase I can't sync my Iphone or Ipad and they both need it since this new IOS 7. I have tried googling and looked all through the apple website and there is just no answer. Please someone help me here...
