Good Morning,
I just did a software update on my phone (finally) last night and now my phone will not come on.  It keeps showing the charger pointing up to a blue circle with iTunes inside and will not go any further.  Can ANYONE help me please???

The phone is in restore mode and the picture is telling you what to do. Connect the phone, by cable, to iTunes in the computer you normally use for syncing, and retore the phone.

  • Help!  blue circle with itunes logo and picture of plug???  what is that? won't start

    just intstalled new update 8.1.3 system shut down and now will not restart.  Only give image of blue circle with music note and iTunes logo underneath with a plug leading to it?  what does that mean?

    It means something didn't go right during the update and your iPad is in Recovery mode. The same thing happened to me during the IOS 8.1 update. You need to connect it to iTunes on your computer, update it, and restore it from your iTunes or iCloud backup.  If like me you don't have a computer take your iPad to the Apple Store and they will help you with the Restore process.

  • I just did a software update that was apparently for iPhoto. When I try to open iPhoto it stops at "step 5" and will not go further. what do I do?

    I just did a software update that was apparently for iPhoto. When I try to open iPhoto it stops at "step 5" and will not go further. what do I do?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

    press power button and homer button together for 10 secs or till apple logo appears, release keys as soon as u see the apple logo
    good luck

  • Tried to upgrading ipad 1 from itunes and l guess it did not complete because all I have showing on the ipad is the itunes logo with the usb cable. when l try to connect it to my system, it resquest that a driver be used to install the device. Pls help

    Tried to upgrading ipad 1 from itunes and l guess it did not complete the process because all I have showing on the ipad is the itunes logo with the usb cable. When l try to connect it to my system, it resquest that a driver be used to install the device. Please help! How do I restore?

    Restoration is relatively simplistic. Here's whatcha do. Plug your ipad in, open itunes, now if itunes doesn't recognize it then you may have a problem, anywho, click on the ipad in the devices interface and go to the info tab, click restore, and it'll be just like it was when it left the factory. To get you data back, it should ask if you would like to use a backup, just select the backup you want and you'll be good to go. That is if you regularly backed up your iPad.

  • I have an iPhone 4 and just did a software update and now my phone won't turn in. It looks like it wants me to connect to iTunes but I'm traveling and can't access my account...or don't know how. Help!

    I did a software update and cannot get my phone to turn off, on, or anything. It shows a gray apple and then an iTunes icon with a USB cable picture. I am not able to connect to my iTunes account because it's on my home computer (I'm traveling). It won't let me add my laptop because it says I have it tied to too many computers already and I can't deauthorize any of those computers because I don't know what they are, and I'm traveling. Can anyone help make my phone usable again? Preferably with contacts in tact.
    Pleeeeease!

    A drop or two of water may have been enough to cook it. If it was bad enough to prompt you to put it in a bag of rice, then I'd venture to guess it was more than a drop or two.
    Try putting it back in the bag of rice and leave it there for several days.
    If that doesn't fix it, then you're more than likely looking at paying for an out of warranty replacement.
    Water and delicate electronics don't generally get along well.

  • Just did a software update and now iTunes or other Mac accessories won't work?

    I did a software update for my Macbook and now iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD and iWeb won't work. I keep getting the iTunes quit unexpectedly thing and it sends the report to Apple. Is there anything I can do to fix this???

    Download the 10.6.8 combo release from the Apple download site. Use Disk Utility (on your hard drive in applications/utilities) to repair permissions, then apply the combo release, then repair permissions again. That sometimes fixes odd system errors after a Software Update. 

  • My 4th gen. shuffle keeps on sending me an error message that it cannot connect with iTunes because it's not formatted properly.

    Hi,
    About two days ago my shuffle started to send me an error message that it cannot connect with iTunes because it's not formated properly.
    So I've already updated the softwer, I tried to use it with every single USB port on my computer and searched for solutions on the net but couldn't find any useful information...
    I literally see the following message: The iPod "194" cannot be used with iTunes because it is not formatted properly.
    Any ideas?....
    Thank you!

    If you cannot access the iPad because of the passcode, you have no choice but to restore it using the same steps that you would use if you forgot the passcode.

  • Just did a software update and now my mac won't boot

    On Monday I did my Apple update, and when I tried to reboot after the update I was greeted with a circle with a line through it. I still get the moving circle on the bottom, but it never boots.
    I do not have my original install disc, but I was able to use another G4 install disc to repair disk permissions and repair the disc. After doing so, I still have the same issue.
    Any ideas would be really helpful. Thanks

    Since Disk Utility can see your drive that is at least a good thing. I am just trying to establish where you stand on booting. Normally if you can boot but experience problems then you can try Disk Utility to repair the drive, which obviously doesn't work in your case. Next is Safe mode which starts up pretty much normally but bypasses some things, and that too is not working. Single User Mode takes you to a text presentation boot stage.
    Once one starts with the stronger medicine it is a good idea to back up your data files at least in case the things you do make the drive worse. Booting into TDM makes your computer act like a giant external hard drive and gives you the chance to copy off those files, assuming your friend has the room on her computer. Then you're more at liberty to experiment with different things to get your computer up and working again. If nothing works you always have the option of reinstalling OSX. You might consider an archive and install, or if you can copy your files off elsewhere just reformat the drive and do a clean install and rebuild everything.
    It may be a case where you may have to buy a utility like Diskwarrior which does things like Disk Utility repair but much more. Or if Diskwarrior doesn't work and you do need your files you may have to let a program like Data Rescue II have a go at recovering the files (but will need an empty harddrive at least the size of the data on your computer).
    At this stage you might also start looking at external bootable hard drives, both because it might come in handy now and also because you'll be able to backup your computer in the future in case of a repeat occurrence.

  • HT201209 I have £15 on my itunes showing on my laptop. I have made purchases, and it has taken the money from bank account, and not from the £15, which still sits on my account with no deductions. Don't understand why. Can anyone help me please ?

    I have a £15 on my iTunes account, from a gift voucher. I have made purchases, but my account remains at £15, and the money instead has been deducted from bank account. Why is not taking the money from valide gift voucher.

    First, I presume you're buying for yourself, not gifts for others, correct? Gifts cannot be purchased using a credit balance. If you are buying for yourself, another user in the forums posted this as the reply from the iTunes Store when this issue was brought up. Perhaps it will help you. Regards.
    I'm sorry you weren't able to make a purchase using your store credit. To purchase items on the iTunes Store with your store credit, your account information in your user profile needs to be corrected. I'll walk you through this process to get you back up and running in no time. 
    1) Visit the My Apple ID website at:  http://appleid.apple.com 
    2) If the site is not displayed in your preferred language, click the Change Language link in the upper-right corner, type the name of your language in the field that appears, then click the Save button. 
    3) Click the "Manage your account" link. 
    4) Type your iTunes Store account name (which is your Apple ID) in the Apple ID field, type your password in the password field, then click the Sign In button. 
    5) Click "Addresses" in the column on the left. If you have multiple shipping addresses, remove any out-of-date or duplicate addresses by clicking Delete. Also, make sure the state or province field is filled out correctly for each address. To edit an address, click Edit. Edit all of your shipping addresses and make sure the appropriate state is selected in the State drop-down menus. 
    6) Now click "Phone Numbers" on the left. The area codes should be in the area code fields and the phone numbers should be in the phone number fields. If an area code is missing, or if it is in a phone number field, your account information may not save properly. 
    7) Make any other necessary corrections, then click the Save Changes button. 
    8) Click Log out in the upper-right corner.  When you make your next purchase on the iTunes Store, you will be asked to review your billing information. At this point, you can change your information or simply click Done at the bottom of the screen to proceed. Once you click Done, you should be able to purchase on the iTunes Store using your store credit. 

  • I just did a software update from Apple for my Mac Book Pro and it crashed severely. Now it will not boot-up. I had the fading down screen with a message saying to hold down the on Button to reboot but it will not, it starts up with the same massage.

    It also comes up with some and more of the info below, whatever it means?
    Panic CPU 0 <Panic>
    Unable to find perform kext scan:
    Debugger called <Panic>
    Can’t perform kext scan:
    SD process name corresponding to correct thread
    MAC OS Version:
    Not yet set.
    What do I do, can anyone help me?
    I also updated a Mac Mini and iMac with no problems.

    unfortunatly i had no Backups.
    You should make sure to correct that as soon as possible.  All computers, regardless of make and model, are ticking time bombs.  Hard drives can die at any time, leaving you with an inert chunk of metal that may still contain your data, but in a form that is totally inaccessible without paying thousands to a company that will disassemble the drive in a clean room and read what data they can off the platters.
    I wonder why should that happen. It was a simple update. Why should an update ruins all my works and my computer...
    It is not the update itself, but the fact that you had corruption in your hard drive's data structures, and writing the thousands of files required by the updater worsened that corruption, damaging the system in the process.  These problems can be avoided by repairing your hard drive with Disk Utility prior to installing any system update.  Most likely, Disk Utility won't find anything to fix, but when it does, you'll be glad you did it before installing the update!

  • I am so frustrated I could spit.. I have been experiencing issues for 1 week now and am unable to use my iphone. It started by shutting down every time I'd try to use it and now it won't turn on. When I plugged it in the charger apple flashes .

    i have been unable to use my iphone for going on a week. It started by shutting down when ever I'd try to use it. Now it has just a dead black screen. If i plug it in it doesn't charge And the flashing apple continues every 2seconds never charging or turning on. I'm frustrated because I can't even get in to troubleshoot. I bought an iphone cuz I thought it was the best phone at the time. My contract isn't up til Aug. and I'm stuck with a bill and no phone. I do not own a computer but I have an ipad4 which I love. HELP!

    Make an appointment at the genius bar are your nearest Apple store. At this point there is nothing you can do without a computer, so if you don't have one and don't know anyone who has one that you can use the Apple store is a good fallback.

  • Firefox 4.0 will not open at all. It shows that the process is running in the task manager but will not open the window even after closing the prcess and restarting.

    I have had firefox since an earlier 2. version and have been able to upgrade as normal. After the installation is done it will not open at all. I have restarted and even uninstalled all previous version .exe and still nothing. I am using windows 7 OS. I am still running 3.6.8 and would love to see the new one running on my laptop.
