HT201210 just restored iphone 4 and I am getting a message saying that my iphone could not be identified
Called in to Apple as my iphone 4 suddenly started showing grey lines across the right 3/4 of the screen. Apple help told me to backup and restore which I did. Once I restored I got a message saying that my iphone could not be identified????

As for the actual cause or the reason why that worked, I dont know. The USB port I was using works fine with my phone or other USB devices.

Hi, I have just set up iTunes in my new computer and have 'synced' my iphone, however, my apps have not synced, I keep getting a message saying that this computer is not authorised to sync the apps even though I have authorised it. I don't know if the issue is the fact that I had to set up a new apple ID? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
The "The connection was reset" error message can be caused by a bug fix for the BEAST (Browser Exploit Against SSL/TLS) attack that the server doesn't handle.

When trying to download apps to my ipad, I get a message saying a secure connection could not be established and to check my date and time settings. Can someone tell me what this means and how to fix the problem?
It's a POP account. I decided to clean up my mailbox today after noticing the computer was real slow after USA Today started sending their daily top stories with new graphics. Also before I noticed the problem with mail deletion - two things happened. 1) I updated security sofware as prompted by Apple and 2) downloaded Mackeeper and went throught some preliminary scans but did not buy their package. Thanks forn nstaying with me.

Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select anyiTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time? -
Has anyone had a problem purchsing movies from iTunes in the last week? Everytime I try to buy a movie or TV show I get a message from iTunes saying "You purchase was incomplete please contact www.apple.com/support/iTunes/ww/." which is no help, still waiting for help!

How do I get my iphone to backup?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again.
Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable. -
