    Good morning
    I am trying to upgrade my iPhone via my macbook but the following message keeps coming up and the download does not work
    "There are purchased items on the iPhone “Mark Price’s iPhone” that have not been transferred to your iTunes library. You should transfer these items to your iTunes library before updating this"
    Please advise how I can transfer these files, I am not sure what files are in question.
    I've only had the MacBook a couple of days, I am PC savvy but this is all new to me so please keep it as simple as possible. I am a brit based in Bahrain.

    okay I've done everything regarding the transfer process (via file>transfer purchases) and syncing, so everything on my iPhone device seems to have been transferred to my iMac... however, I still get that message ("There are purchased items on the iPhone..."), trying to upgrade the iOS Have tried several times the same process of hitting transfer purchases via file, but nothing seems to make that message go away! Would have been nice to know which files I actually do need to transfer, which I don't get any info on of course...
    Starting to get really annoying this thing.. Any smart suggestions what's going on?

  • I'm trying to install iOS 5.0 but getting message that my computer does not have sufficient space to backup my iPad; continuing will result in loss of all media on iPad. I was going to install iCloud but it seems that you have to have iOS 5.0, help?

    i'm trying to install iOS 5.0 but getting message that my computer does not have enough space to backup my iPad and continuing will result in loss of all media on iPad.  an option seemed to be backing up on iCloud, but i think you have to have iOS 5.0 to install iCloud.
    how do i install iOS 5.0 without losing anything on my iPad?

    If you really do not have enough space on your HDD for a backup of your iPad, you do not have enough space at all. Free up at least 15% of your HDD, in any case more than 0.8GB for the iPad update.
    Make backups on an external disk.
    After freeing up enough space, try again.

  • My iPhone4 with iOS7 suddenly gone dead. Doesn't turn on no matter what is done. I tried connecting to iTunes and try to sync but the De4vices tab remains grayed.

    My iPhone4 with iOS7 was working fine. Suddenly and spontaneously it had gone dead.Neithr was it ever dropped down nor any fluid spilled. It doesn't turn on no matter what is done. I tried syncing with iTunes  but the Devices tab in the iTunes remains grayed. It means it doesn't recognise. What shall I do?

    No, No, it was not a question of drained battery. I charged iphone overnight and it was charged to 100%. Hardly 2-3% would have got spent before it had gone dead.Gving benefit of doubt of drained battery, I indeed allowed it by connecting to USB for nearly 10 mts before I  pressed the on button. But it was of no avail.
    I searched for suggestions and followed the tip given in the forum. I kept both the home button and the wake up/sleep button pressed for 20 sec. The apple icon appeared and booted. Thanks.

  • HT1414 My iPad does not automatically update the operating system.  Under the general tab in settings there should be Updates, but there isn't.  Advice plz?

    My iPad does not automatically update the operating system.how can I accomplish this?

    Your post says you are on iOS 4.3.2.  You need to be at least at iOS 5 to have a "Software Update" capability on your iPad.  Right now, you need to update your iPad using iTunes on your computer.
    Plug your iPad into iTunes (current version: 11.0.4).  Let it sync.  Then choose "Check for Updates" from the iPad's summary page in iTunes.

  • [Mac] Caution on Updating Epson drivers via Software Update- 3800

    I ran the Apple supplied updater for Epson drivers, and my 3800 dialog slipped backwards; this on my G5 desktop. The cure was easy enough: ran the Uninstaller that exists in the Beta 3800 driver, and reinstalled.
    One of the more disturbing "features" is that the Summary will tell you you're printing in either 360 x360 'DPI', or 720 x 720 'DPI', even when you're printing at high levels, say 1440 or 2800 DPI.
    Even if it's trying to tell you it's receiving data at 360 PPI, it's usually not the case. Kinda makes me feel uncomfortable using this "update".

    You should be able to get any updates from Apple via the Support/Downloads on the main Apple.com page. Any peripheral drivers that Apple has not updated would need to be downloaded from the manufacturer's web site.

  • On my ATV home screen the menu tabs for Movies does not show nor does Netflix under the Internet tab, I have tried reset etc but nothing works

    I think I have a 1st gen ATV.  The other evening I got the ubiquitous "Error-HDCP content etc, try again" message.  When I logged back in later, the Movies tab was gone from the menu screen as was Netflix under the Internet tab.  I have tried reset, restore, unplugging etc and nothing works, any thoughts?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If you had/have Netflix, you have the Apple TV 2.
    Check your iTunes Store location is set to the correct location.

  • I am trying to down load apps from the app store but the system says my password does not work even though I just changed it

    I am trying to download an app from the app store but the ID apple gives me is old and out of date so how do I change the ID apple has on file?

    Its just Apple's system. They won't charge you so I wouldn't worry about giving them the billing information.

  • Updated to ios 5.0.1 but the icloud doesnt recognise that I bought any music on my ipod touch before I updated, how can I get this music back?

    So, pretty much, I hadnt updated my ipod for quite sometime...and it wouldnt let me take music from my ipod onto my computer (now running the latest itunes) When I finally decided to update everything, the information about icloud said that it could download previously purchased music etc. So, I figured it would all be fine, as I assumed all my music, as Ive always used the same account, would overall be saved onto that in someway or another, and it could at least make it realise that Ive already downloaded things? so, I updated, my ipod was wiped except for photos, and now I cant get any of my previously purchased music, videos, or apps....however...I really care about the music most of all. I've read help sections millions of times...but I cant find any that acctually help me (none of the apple ones I have found have even mentioned the fact that theres NOTHING in the purchased bar) I tried downloading something else and that works fine on this new 'icloud' thing. Pretty much, I am acctually terrible with technology...and I probably should never assume things ever again...but if you have any idea what I could do to help me...that would be much appreciated!

    get the order number from itunes account "Purchase History" & then send a mail to itunes store from following website. www.apple.com/support/itunes/ They will provide you exception to redownload because its Apple's problem

  • Snow Leopard Graphics Update now available via Software Update

    Fixes include:
    "Resolves an issue that could cause Aperture 3 ... to unexpectedly quit or become unresponsive."

    I'm loving to be able to work agin Aperture, I can confirm that everything is faster after the update, including adjustments, but I don't use brushes that much (it would be grate if some one could give a feedback on that)
    Most of my files are around 150-500 mb file size (I'm doing VR Panoramas) and I can tell you that Aperture is with out a doubt much, much faster for sure!
    Thanks!

  • Can't Install Security Update 2007-009 With Software Update

    I tried to install Security Update 2007-009 on a 10.5.1 G4 system, but the installation fails with an "unknown error". Here are the details:
    1) Software Update downloads the file and ask to Restart
    2) Get to the blue screen
    3) See these messages "Preparing target volume" and "Configuring installation"
    4) Get this error message:
    The update "Security Update 2007-009" can't be installed.
    The installer encountered an unknown error that failed the install. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.
    5) Restart
    I then deleted the "Security Update 2007-009" folder from Library->Updates and tried the update again, but got the same error.
    Any idea what's wrong and how to fix it?
    Thanks.

    I installed Security Update 2007-009 via Software Update and received the following error:
    "Security Update 2007-009 can't be installed. The installer could not validate the contents of the SecUpd2007-009 package."

    Permissions repair complete
    Regarless, I downloaded the update directly from Apple Support located here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/securityupdate2007009111051.html
    And 2007-009 installation complete without a hitch. I have no idea what is going on with the permissions (any recommendations) but I have not found any other problems since this update was installed.
    I hope this helps.

  • Trying to setup TC to the internet (Comcast modem) and does not connect.

    I'm replacing my old Netgear WiFi router with the TC.  The provider is Comcast via their modem but, after setting up TC it does not connect to the internet.  Of course Comcast service doesn't answer.  I've tried the usual, unplugging the modem and TC and reconnecting, then resetting, etc, no connection to the internet.  Do I need to directly bypass the WiFi router to start and connect the computer first and capture the DNS settings?  Comcast usually does that automatically.  After that connect TC to the modem and then manually edit settings?  What settings use I edit?

    Is the comcast modem a pure modem or also a router?
    If it is a pure modem.. the TC must be in router mode.
    If it has been used in another setup or is just being difficult .. reset the TC to factory and start over.
    It is simply in DCHP and NAT for network setup.. it should get an IP and share it by default.
    Normally you need to turn off the modem for several minutes to make the ISP gateway give up the MAC address of last connected item.
    Tell us the exact model of the modem if the above doesn't work.
    Is the TC new one?
