HT201210 When I try to sync my iphone I get a message saying that it was unable to back up my iPhone as an error occurred. Help?!

When I try to sync my iphone I get a message saying that it was unable to back up my iPhone as an error occurred. My iPhone needs a software update but it won't let me do that until my phone is backed up! I have authorised my computer and tried disconnecting my phone from the computer, but nothing is working. Help please?!

I was receiving the same message. I had to uncheck the box that allowed me to sync my phone to my computer (PC) via wi-fi. After that, I have not had any problems. I am speculating that this issue is probably related to the wi-fi problems people are experiencing with iOS 6.

Once you have obtained an external drive and connected it you will 'clone' your internal drive to it.
Download Carbon Copy Cloner (it is not free but there is a fully functional trial version which is). Use it to clone your internal drive to your external drive. When that is done you will reboot from the clone and use Disk Utility to erase the internal drive (choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled)) as the format (this is normally preset, but check). Make sure to give the external drive a 'distinctive' name, don't want to get drives mixed up in this process.
Once that is done you will use Carbon Copy Cloner (from the clone) to restore the external to the internal.

When I try to open google body I get a message saying that WebGL is not initializing properly. Can you help?

I am trying to use Google Body but I get an error message that WebGL is not initializing properly. Can you help?

It says: WebGL Renderer (WebGL unavailable)
What is the value of the WebGL prefs (webgl.disabled and others) on the about:config page?
Are any webgl.* prefs bold (user set)?
You can try to force webgl (webgl.force-enabled -> true) to see if that has any effect.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold(user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

I lost my handset (iphone 4s) and now have a replacement but when I try to restore from icloud I get a message saying 'cannot load backups'. Can anyone help?

Unless you've tried to install an older version of iTunes that message likely indicates a corrupt library file. See Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash...

Hi IG viper,
Placing your iPod into recovery mode should allow you to successfully restore the device.
You might see these error messages if any of these are true:
Your device has a beta version of iOS.
You're trying to install an earlier version of iOS (downgrading).
Your device has unauthorized modifications to iOS, also called "jailbreaking."
Use recovery mode to restore your device to the latest version of iOS.

HT1212 My iphone is disabled after entering the wrong passcode.Followed the steps by connecting to itunes on my computer but still not helpful.Instead getting a message saying that i must turn off my icloud on iphone before i can resrore my device.

My iphone is disabled.Followed the steps in itunes after connecting to my computer but getting a message saying that i must turn off 'find my iphone'' on my device before i can restore it.Impossible for me to do that because i obviously have no access to my device.Can anyone help me with this problem please?

I think you should call via phone or perhaps take it to a phone store. I suggest taking your id, box packaging and other necessities such as the reciept of the phone being purchased.
Hope this helped

When I try to open i photo I get a message saying it can't open because it is either damaged or incomplete. I worked a few days ago. What can I do?

I have a MacBook Pro that is 2 years old and is up to date with updates. All of a sudden when I attempt to open i photo I get a message that says it is either damaged or incomplete and cannot open. Any ideas on how to fix this?

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
*Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

For no reason when I try to sync my iPad I get a message after about 10 minetes sayingitunes has stopped working windows will get back to you if a solution is found.I used to be able to sync no problem this just started all of a sudden

I get a message every time I truro sync it says iTunes has stopped working windows will contact you if a solution is found.

I know you can't help with my Yahoo problem, however, apparently at some time in the past I have went to the Sync and tried to figure it out on both my laptop and my desktop, because I have the long snyc key information. However, when I go to try to sync both computers I never get the box to enter that key on either one. That is my problem. So should I try and get a new sync key and see if that works.

My Quicktime will not open, and therefore when I try to play a video I get a message saying I need to download Quicktime, but I cannot do that as when I try, I get a message saying I already have it. How do I un-install Quicktime so I can re-install it?

I am having issues with Quicktime. It would not open, so I tried to "delete" it and re-intall. When I did that, it would not let me install it and I got a message saying it could not install because I already had it.
So, I guess what I need to know is how do I un-install Quicktime (even though the icon is gone) and then re-install it.
Thanks!

Yes I had that problem this week. Did search in finder and dragged all files to trash,including any attempted down loads of updated quicktime, emptied, restarted and then down loaded latest version and all ok.

According to the iTunes specific error codes web site.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error9
Error 9
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.
See if the iPad will boot up this way.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
