HT201272 Restore Purchases does not work.

I have TomTom installed on my iPhone. I purchased TomTom HD Traffic to go with the App on 1/04/2011 and the add on Traffic worked fine. I did however allow the subscription to lapse. When I next needed the App, I opened the App and made a purchase of the HD Traffic "In App". However the purchase did not show up and when I attempted to view the Traffic option within the App, The App just tried to make me purchase the add on again. When I tried to "Restore Purchases" this failed. Firstly the App informed me that the App was registered to a different device and did I want to transfer it. That was a lie as the App had not been registered anywhere else than the account I was using and on my iPhone 4S. The system then requested that I log onto the TomTom store, and then I saw displayed the message "Unable to Connect. Please try later"
I contacted TomTom support and they keep telling e to restore the purchase, however whatever they are doing has made no difference at all.
Every time I do as they instruct and go into the TomTom store and attempt to restore purchases the attempt fails with the message "Unable to Connect. Please try later".
I think that this is a TomTom issue, as when I just tried to purchase a One month subscription in te TomTom store section of the iPhone App, it asked me to log onto the TomTom store, displayed my log on credentials in a box, and then displayed the message"Unable to Connect. Please try later"
Has anyone else had issues like this with TomTom. It is otherwise an excellent product and I like the Traffic add on. I do not like the fact that they cannot fix theis issue which has been going backwards and forwards between TomTom and I for three weeks.
All the best Chris

TomTom support did eventually solve this although not in a way that reveals exactly what the issue was.
They got me to delete the App together with its data, from the iPhone which I did. I then re-synced the iPhone, and restored the App.
It worked again. If this hadn't worked their instructions were to delete it completely and then download a completely fresh copy of the App from their website. Fortunately I did not need to do this as I have a really slow (2 Mbps) internet connection here at home.

I need to re-download Lion and install it. Holding the Option key while clicking on "purchases" does not work.

I need to re-download Lion and install it, after re-formatting my hard-drive to "journaled" as requested. Holding the Option key while clicking on "purchases" does not work.

Thanks Smokemonster. I found that the Lion install app was in in my applications folder already. Worked fine.

App Store "Option key for purchase" does not work to reinsatll Lion

Hello,
I was able to re-install Lion from the App Store
by holding the "option key" while clicking on "Prchased" in the App store
Since I upgraded to 10.7.1 this does not work anymore !
Is it the upgrade to 10.7.1 that"s preventing a new download ?
or
Is it Apple that cancelled that access ?
One way or the other how do I reinsatll Lion ?
Note: I have too many partition on my drive, so it did not create a "restore HD" for LIon
Thanks

My problem was resolved the following day, today. I went to the App Store then to Purchased. The associated button said Resume. Yesterday that had been totally unresponsive but today when I clicked it the download resumed for another minute or two and then Lion just installed. I presume that the system was just being pushed to the limit and beyond yeasterday.
I hope that you have solved your difficulty - good luck!

IPad2 IOS 7 updated, now locked out, there is no password. Restore backup does not work. HELP

I updated my iPad2 to OS 7 last night and chose to NOT use a passcode because I have an important mtg today and didn't want any problems.
NOW... I am locked out of my iPad2 and spending two hours trying to get this resolved. My day is almost ruined now.
HOW DO I UNLOCK MY IPAD2 WITHOUT A PASSCODE ??????
I had a full schedule previously, and this is KILLING me. I connected my iPad2 to my computer and it synced. I cannot use "restore backup" because of find my ipad app. I cannot turn off "find my ipad" because I am locked out of the machine. I am SO frustrated and the lack of support is killing me as well.

The way to resolve this issue is to restore the phone. Now if you do not have a back up in iCloud or iTunes you will lose your content. If you backed up after the passcode lock was set up on the phone, you will have to choose to set up as new and lose all your content. Now iTunes will state that it cannot recognize or restore the phone as it has a passcode lock on it.
1)In order to get past this you will hold down the home and power buttons down at the same time.
2)When the apple symbol comes up on the device you will release only the power button.
3)Next an iTunes symbol, arrow, and usb cord will show up on the phone. At this time release the home button. 4)iTunes on your computer will prompt you with a message stating "iTunes has detected an "device" in recovery mode." You will click okay and then restore the phone.
5)Allow the download to process, times will vary.
6)Upon completion, go through the set up on the phone and pay close attention to the pages that you are on.
7)There will be a page prompting you to put in a passcode. You will have the option to skip it if you do not want it on your device.
8) And finally, I have spoken with James and these are the steps to resolve the issue. Please do not call him as currently he is being overwhelmed with calls and stated that he cannot take calls from customers that he has not worked with already. Please feel free to send me any questions you have as I will also be able to provide you steps to resolve your issue.

Loaded 7.3-does not work-restored system-does not work-missing files?

I downloaded 7.3 and got a message that it could not upgrade the version of IPOD software found on cpu. Please uninstall and try again. Did that. Also removed all Itunes and Ipod software versions. Still got message. Decided to restore computer to before the 7.3 download. Now get error message that ITunes cannot run because files are missing. Doesn't say which ones. Any idea on how to restore old version?

My workflow is to basically backup my negative collection by scanning at the highest resolution possible and save them at full bit depth as Tiffs on offline storage. I then duplicate all the files as large JPGs and store them on my local machine. These are then all duplicated again and down sampled to 1024*768 to be synced with the iPad. After 2 1/2 years and a 16 page file documenting all the bugs, I finally got the small files to sync with an iPad 4. After all is said and done, it only took about 7GB to sync 50K Jpgs but did end up with a 20GB "Other" file that no one from Apple can explain. I have been seeing these "Other" files for a while and think they are some sort of memory corruption and the only way to get rid of it is to restore the ipad.
Bottom line, iTunes for Windows is terrible, very buggy, and unsupported by Apple. They can only help you trouble shoot restarting problems but there is no escalalation path for things that don't work. iTunes basically has a lot of trouble with samll number of large files and even a large number of small files.
I have been using Lighroom to convert the Tiffs to JPGs but ran into a problem that Adobe engineers didn't know about. Lightroom will only support a maximum of 512 mega pixels and won't load any files over this size. It appears it may load them as PSDs but not as Tiffs. Problem is Lightroom won't give any error message for files it won't load so there is no way to trouble shoot it.
What does work flawlessly is using Photoshop/Scripts/Image Processor.
In protest of Apples apathy I took every IOS device I ever purchased back to the Apple store and challenged them to either make them work or refund them. They gave a full refund for every device I erver purchased including $299 for the original touch which came out to about $3500. I even sent a letter to Tim Cook ([email protected]) but he didn't care either.

Is there a way to go back to previous version of software as I don't like vers 1.1. Restoring it does not work and it turns off all the time after around 10 secs

Is there any way to go back to prvious version of software befoe 1.1 on ipod nano 6th generation. After update it switches off all the time after about 10 secs and I preferred it when I could listen to songs when in sleep mode without using too much battery power

Peter,
That was the problem. They were there, just not properly linked. I used the one I completed in CS6 trial version (after preflight). When I exported that one and opened it in CS5 all was good. I think I will make the upgrade as soon as I can afford it, but at least now I can make the system work for my needs. Thank you for your help!

My history restore function does not work - neither a saved history nor the dated entries the browser saves. How can this be fixed?

I carefully and specifically used the backup function in an attempt to backup my history before I cleared it to try to fix another problem. However, on trying to restore the history, I instead found out that only the bookmarks had been backed up and my history was lost. Why be so cruel as to offer what seems to be a history backup but in reality is not?
Yes, I should have used FEBE, but since there was a button and menu on the "Show all history" library, the implication is that it is the history, not the bookmarks that are being backed up. That's irresponsible at best.

There is an extension to backup the history, but as far as I know there is no way to restore history once deleted unless you would restore a copy of the places.sqlite file that has this history.

My apple restoration cd does not work. When I put it in and reboot, the icon comes up for me to install but the pin wheel comes up on a blank screen and it just turns and turns forever?

Need help with this asap..

Problem solved. I tore the phone down and did another, the third one, liquid repair and clean on it and to my surprise it fired right up with absolutely no signs of damage and all functions working perfectly.

XP windows restore does not work yet all is set correctly

Does the Lenovo Restore and Rescue utility disable this function of XP ? ?
Thanks

Well I have a 6460-8WU that came with Vista and I got the downgrade CD set and tried to restore to XP. The first time it said it failed to restore my system, but it seem to have XP and all the applications that I expected to see. Later I had a problem with the Welcome Windows screen being unavailable... used only the Classic Windows Logon, I called Microsoft and they suggested using their system restore.... which didn't work at all... I tried 5 or 6 different backup files from different days and none of them worked. At that point I decided to use the Lenovo downgrade CDs and format the hard drive restoring everything from scratch. It took me a few tries but eventually I did get it to say that it had successfully restored my system. The items I learned from like 4 failed attempts to restore it are this:
1. Don't try to restore it while in the advanced dock.
2. When the restore process says to remove Disk # x and press OK, remove Disk # x-1 (the currently inserted Disk, and insert Disk # x, and then do not press OK until you wait 20 or 30 seconds or until the little icon of a CD that flashes when Windows reads a newly inserted disk has finished. When I tried clicking OK either before I had actually inserted the next CD or too soon after I had inserted the next CD the process went downhill from there and failed to restore properly.
3. When it seemingly has read all the CD's and says it will now start the restoration process, but you are asked to press Next... well firstly there *is* no Next button to press and the other buttons other than Cancel are greyed out. The solution there is to wait, and wait, and wait... so long that you may think the process has failed and the computer is hung... but it is not. Eventually it will continue from that point.
Aside from that, I notice that there is a new version of the Recovery Application on the Support site, but
if you install the latest Rescue and Recovery 4.20.0511.00 in the readme there are 31 "considerations" listed, which are basically conditions under which it does not work properly or as expected, so I won't be trusting it to recover my system. I will make a Paragon Drive Manager image after I get the updates all installed and use that to restore from.

Yes, this is activation lock. Return the phone for a refund, as it is useless without the activation information of the previous owner.

Expanded content in-app purchase of $4.99 installs but is never available (does not work), endless loop of "restore content".

Once I upgraded o Mavericks (10.9.4) and GarageBand (10.0.2) I saw the offer for additional content – 200 sounds, 2,000 loops, 15 drummers... – and made the purchase per this article: Expanding GarageBand for Mac (v10.0) content with an in-app purchase
After downloading the content, system asked for my log in, went through the install, but alas, the content is nowhere to be found.
GarageBand menu, "Restore Purchases" available.
Choose Restore Purchases
GB downloads 10G
OS requests log in for installation
OS performs installation (no crashes, no problems)
But then content is not there and "Restore Purchases" is still available in the GarageBand menu. I've read the threads about the download crashing (which happened to me once), but this is different. I've tried resetting permissions, and now I've just installed a brand new SSD drive, fresh install of Mavericks and GB, and got the same problem.
Unless I am missing something, content is nowhere to be found. Any help would be appreciated.
"Restore Content" always available:
Where are the 40 lessons?
Where are the 17 additional drummers:

Your last screenshot is showing that the purchase installed:
You have more than the one drummer "Kyle". You can switch between different drummers by clicking the portraits "Rose" Curtis", Berry" and the genre menu, to bring up different drummers.
"Restore Content" always available:
This will always be available, so you can reinstall, if need be.
Where are the 40 lessons?
The in-app purchase does not download the lessons, but enables you to buy them for free. Sign into the Lesson Store, to download the lessons you want. It should now be possible.
Select "File > New" and then select the Lesson Store.
200 sounds, 2,000 loops, 15 drummers...
The 200 sounds will be visible, depending on the selected kind of track.
You will see 2000 loops, if you disable the default "Keyword Browsing > Filter for more relevant content" in the GarageBand Preferences > Loops panel and set the the menu at the top of the Loop Browser to "Loops" and "Scale > Any"
What do you see, when you set the Loop options this way?

If you weren't able to sync the purchases to a computer previously and now your iPod needs to be restored so you can't sync it now, then you may be out of luck and will need to purchase your content again. Officially Apple does not allow redownloads of purchased items other than iPhone/iPod touch applications and iBooks. The official statement of their policy can be found here, among other places.
You can try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service (select the "Music Purchases" or "Video Purchases" category, as appropriate, then "Lost or Missing Items". You'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form - or an "Email Us" button) ") and explaining what happened. Reportedly in some cases Apple has allowed redownloading on a one-time basis. But don't count on it.
Good luck.
