HT201407 new iphone 5 and 4 year old macbook, and for some reason my computer says a later version of itunes is required to use iphone to sync.  updated most recent version possible and still can not sync to iphone.

new iphone 5 and 4 year old macbook, and for some reason my computer says a later version of iTunes is required.  So, i went to ITunes and found i have the latest version availble at this time.  iTunes say phone can not be synced because it requires a version of 10.7 or greater?

iPhone 5 requires OS X 10.6.8 & iTunes 10.7 or greater. I suspect you're running Leopard, 10.5.8, correct? If so, you will first have to update your OS, then iTunes in order to sync your phone.

  • My phone is always off line and i still can not find my iPhone, what else can i do and on my part?

    My phone is always off line. I still can not find my iPhone, what else can i do and on my part?  Will the  local authorities help me find it if i show them the last location the phone was at cause I can always take matters into my own hands and probably end up in trouble with the law.  What options do I have available?

    In addition to using Find My iPhone to lock or erase your phone, the advice in the following link from Apple support is to change your iCloud password, report it to local law enforcement and to your cellular carrier: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5668

  • HT4906 I have upgraded my OS to Mountain Lion and updated Iphoto to latest, however, I still can not access photos sent to me via photo stream. what else do I need to do? I'm $30 into this effort, and no results!

    Log out of iCloud in the System/iCloud preference pane and disable Photo Stream in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.  Then log back in and re-enable, respectively.  That should jump start Photo Stream.

    Hi Peter!
    I'm sorry to read that you are having issues with your Sync account.
    Your best bet is to follow the steps described in this blogposts and open a bug:
    https://philikon.wordpress.com/2011/06/13/how-to-file-a-good-sync-bug/
    After that, if you don't want to user Sync in your computer, you can stop it with this simple steps:
    * At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (Tools menu in Windows XP) and then click Options.
    * Once the options window opens, click on the Sync tab.
    * At the bottom of the Sync tab click on '''Deactivate this Device''' link

    Prepaid accounts don't have Account Owners/Managers, they just have Account Members (and prepaid accounts have less options regarding changes via their My Verizon account as a result).

    Hi,
    As you have match, I suggest that you create a new library by holding ctrl whist launching iTunes. Select create new library. Sign into iTunes Store and activate match. You will now have access to your music and will be able to stream your music.
    Options : get a new external drive formatted for mac and either download music from match or copy music from old drive to new one. Alternatively you could reformat old drive and download music from match - I would not be comfortable using this option as it means erasing drive before being able to use with mac.

  • I just bought a song on itunes and it downloaded it but for some reason is not playing, does anybody know why ??

    i just bought a song on itunes and it downloaded it but for some reason is not playing. o you know why?

    - Try a reset. it cures many ill and nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    - Does it play in iTunes on the computer?
    - Delete the song and redownload it by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - Ask iTunes for a redownload.

  • My iphone 4 went into recovery mode for some reason and it is unable to be restored. any ideas how to fix this?

    my iphone went into recovery mode for some reason and is unable to be restored. it wont turn on and when plugged into a charger it shows a usb and itunes symbol. so i plugged it into my mac and connected to itunes then itunes said it has detected a phone in recovery mode and needs to be restored. so it goes through the restoration process for a couple minutes or so then stops and says itunes is unable to restore because an unknown error occurred (2001) or (2006) and other times i try it says its unable to restore because itunes cant detect the device... any ideas how to fix this?

    Errors 2000-2009 (from Apple support): If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.
    2001: Use up to date software. Make sure your device is in DFU Mode: http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034
    2006: Use a different USB cable. Possibly the one that came with your iPhone.

  • Itunes will only sync a portion of my music since i have installed the newest update.  It keeps telling me it can not sync my Ipod due to a duplicate file name.  Any suggestions?

    I am trying to get some advice as to why my Ipod will not completely sync since I updated Itunes.  Itunes keeps telling me it can not sync my Ipod due to a duplicate file name?  It will sync some of my songs but not all of them.  Any thoughts?

    Most likely the iPod filesystem is corrupted, during a partial sync, that freeze due to a timeout.
    In My Computer, select the iPod, right click Properties->Tools->Check Now
    tick both Fix filesystem and scan.for bad sectors.
    This will fix the duplicate name error.
    Good Luck!

  • I am making a website for my high school and it's online, but for some reason my navigation bar doesn't show up on firefox browser. Any suggestions?

    I made a new website for my high school. I used the same code for the navigation bar in the old site for the new site and for some reason my new site's nav bar won't show up in firefox browser or for that matter any browser other than Internet. Any ideas of why?

    Looks fine here. You may need to bypass the cache if you uploaded new code.
    Reload a web page and bypass the cache with:
    * Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
    * Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    * Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
