HT4623 i have an iphone 4 and i'm trying to get a new app that needs iOS 5, but when i go to setting and general and places i'm unable to find the category software update. what should i do?
I have no idea how to do this.
Over The Air updating came with iOS 5 so you do have to update using iTunes.
I would recommend always updating using iTunes, my personal and very unscientific resrearch into the problems that many people have with updates and then having poor battery life and wifi issues indicates that the common thread among them and not being able to resolve the problems seems to be updating OTA. I would always update using iTunes.

my apple tv seems to have hung up during the latest software update - what should I do now?
I have not turned it off but it has been stuck in the same spot for 30 minutes now and I'm not sure what to do next since the screen says to NOT turn it off until done. Please help.If it hangs much longer you may need to disconnect and then grab a micro USB to restore through iTunes

The software is not updateing on my iphone 4 just say checking for software update what should i do?
the software is not updateing on my iphone 4 it saying checking for software update what should i do?
The battery drain issue started when I updated my iphone 4 to the IOS 6.1.2.
The battery will go from 100% to 0% in about 3 hours !!!
I called Apple support and they told me that they are not aware of an issue affecting the battery with the latest update. They did a diagnostic test on my iphone and found that my battery is healthy. Then then recommended that I backup my iphone, restore the factory settings and recover after that. In other words, delete everything off my iphone and reinstall everything all over again. I waisted a couple of hours doing that and .....I still have the issue of the battery drain.
I finally discovered the problem, and thus the solution!
To solve this issue, do the following:
Settings ---> Mail, Contacts, Calendars --->Fetch New Data ---> Advanced
Now click on your hotmail account or your company email account (anything in that folder other than yahoo, gmail or aol),
Change the setting from Push to Fetch !!!
And Viola ! Problem will be solved !
The problem seems to be that the mail exchange (i.e. microsoft, hotmail...etc) keeps checking and pushing emails from the exchange server every second (continiousely) and this is causing the battery to drain.When you change the setting to Fetch, then emails will start downloading every 15 min; but at least your battery will hold charge as it is supposed to do, until Apple comes up with 6.1.3 that hopefully will fix this issue.
Good luck. Hope this works out for you folks hence it sure did work for me this morning and it sure feels great.

Hi, I have a prepaid visa card but when I want to purchase a product, I face" please contact to Itunes support to complete this transaction". what should I do and how can I contact with Itunes support?
These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here and they don't monitor these forums (I've asked the hosts to remove your email address from your post).
You can contact iTunes support here and ask why you are getting the message and how to resolve it : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page -
I have rented two movies on my laptop and they will not completely download..it shows that they are theere but when i try to watch them on my laptop or my ipad it wont open up???? help
Welcome to the Apple community.
A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals. -
my ipad has IOS 5.1.1 version and i know there is newer update for them as when i go to download certain apps it wont let me because it needs IOS 7 but when i have plugged it into itunes it says no update needed?
Hello courtneys100,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post it appears that you are using an earlier iPad, which can only update to iOS 5. Some developers do offer compatible versions of their apps for people running older iOS versions, but ultimately it is up to that developer to make an older version. Check out the article for more information about installing the latest compatible version of an app on your iPad.
Install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X

I have an iphone 4s. I tried to download the iOS 7 but it couldn't download because it said it was an error. I have plenty of space to download the upgrade. Do you know what it is?
Keep trying or maybe try again later. There are millions of people who are currently trying to do the same thing you're doing. Just be patient and you will be able to update, this happens on launch day. Just curious.....what was the error

I have a iphone 4s. I let it upgrade to new OS. It will not get past the icloud agree to terms and conditions. I've review and agreed to all conditons. It just stays on the terms and conditions.
It's so simple. Press Cntl+Alt+Del, I mean, just like Microsoft, reboot and try again.

Photos in my from my iPhone have the same numbering as photos from my digital camera. They all go into iPhoto fine but when I backup to my ext hard drive it will only save one with the name IMG 1002 and I have two separate images both with that name. How do I get them all to save on my ext hard drive and hope do I prevent this numbering overlap in the future? I'm really hoping I don't have to go through and manually rename every single picture. Thanks.
How are you backing up the photos? The best way is to backup the library itself as that will preserve your organizational efforts as well as all metadata like keywords, titles, faces, places, books, etc.
You can use a backup application that does incremental backups. Thus only the first backup is a full one and subsequent backups just copy those files that are new or changed. I use Synk Pro. The lower cost version, Synk, will do the same job. Other similar apps can be found at MacUpdate.com.
OR: upload your camera to a folder on the Desktop. There you can rename the files to something that is more informative than just the file name. I use the date (international format) along with a brief desc: 2007-1-20-adian1stbday-001.jpg. File renaming apps can also be found at MacUpdate.com. Also you can give the folder an informatve name which will become the Event name when you import the folder of photos into iPhoto.
