iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Cheers, Tom

You may still be able to restore the iPad if it went into recovery mode on it's own. Read this.

I successfully upgraded to Yosemite and tried to launch iPhoto. It wants to upgrade my photo library but gets stuck half way through. I have quit and tried several times but same result. Can anyone help?
download iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - and use the free trial's rebuild command to create a totally new library leaving the existing one untouched for use as needed in the future

Hi, please can anyoner help. I had a power cut at home and went to switch the imac back on and all i can get is a grey screen, a chime and a circle going around but no blue screen when I start up .I have tried pressing the power button for ten seconds with it switched off .Tried installing back up discs and after about an hour it comes up with an error that caused installation to fail and to contact the software manufacturer, tried again and the same happened. Tried apple hardware test and test results say no trouble found so am trying the extended test .any help would be great, thanks,Andy.
Try resetting the smc and pram.
To reset the smc
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord.
Wait fifteen seconds.
Attach the computer's power cord.
Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
To reset pram
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys. -
Hi, i've just updated my iphone 5s to ios7.1 two weeks ago, however, 4 days ago, my phone's screen turned blue then grey. I have tried restoring it through i tunes but itunes keep saying error 40. Can this still be fixed? or does it need a replacement?
Hey everyone in Apple world!
I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP! Yessssss!!!
I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process. Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal. No flashing yellow screen anymore!!
(Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
Let me know if this works for you!

I had an auto-update on my Mac OSX 10.5.8 for iPhoto program to Version 9.1.5 on July 14th. Since then I cannot open any events in iphoto when I double click on them. I can see the other pictures in each event but that's all. IPhoto only lets me scan in photo's. The program is now unusable. I tried to delete the update of 9.1.5 and it doesn't show in finder now, then I downloaded IPhoto 8.0.2. I had IPhoto Version 08, 7.1.5, at least that's what it reads in About.
I hope someone can help me with this problem. Also, if I now have a thumb size photo on my desktop it no longer opens to a bigger view.
Thank you.What version of iPhoto do you actually have?
iPhoto Menu -> About iPhoto
If you have iPhoto 08 then the v9.1.5 update will have done nothing. Ditto with iPhoto v8.0.2
You have the most up-to-date version of iPhoto 08 there is.
I cannot open any events in iphoto when I double click on them. I can see the other pictures in each event but that's all.
Check the double click speed on your Mouse.
What happens when you try to open an Event?
Regards

I restored my iphone but now it will not power on fully. The Itunes plugin appears. I plug it in and restore as requested but the phone never restarts like it says it will. I have done this several times now but nothing. Suggestions?
Sounds like time to take it back to Apple for repair.

I Have seen people report this issue when they try to sync their devices but in never seen it when trying to restore an unresponsive iPad. I would sguggest trying recovery mode now.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
This procedure will totally erase the iPad so I hope that you have a backup that you can restore from....assuming that it works, that is. -

My iPhone will do absolutely nothing. It won't charge or start up. I've tried several different chargers and none of them work. I've tried restarting it and everything, but nothing works. Can anyone help?
Sounds like it is time to take it back to Apple and ask them to repair it for you.
