HT4623 I installed new software on my iphone 3s but I can't activate it. It is saying that server for activation is not responding at the moment. connect to itunes to activate iphone. How can I do that?
What is the problem?
The person probably purchased it as a hacked iPhone and had no idea this had been done to make the iPhone work in Latvia. Call AppleCare and give them the model and serial number and find out what cell carrier the iPhone is locked with. Then call that cell carrier and see if it is possible for the owner to get it officially unlocked (not probable if it is Lithuanian iPhone).

Since installing new software update, my iphone 4S no longer is recognized by itunes
I installed the new software update to my Windows PC and my iphone and now my iphone 4s is no longer recognized by itunes and I cannot sync. I already attempted unintalling itunes and reinstalling it - it didn't work.
Hello KatieJean123,
It sounds like your phone is not recognzied in iTunes anymore. I recommend the troubleshooting steps from the article named:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1538
Here is an overview of the troubleshooting to be done:
1. Update iTunes
2. Check the USB cable
3. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
4. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service
5. Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed
6. Check for third-party software conflicts
If the issue persists, try uninstalling iTunes and its associated apps with either of these two articles depending on your operating system version and its associated softwares:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925
Or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923

After installing the new software to my iPhone 4S , my dream zoo either will not start or when it does it has a blank screen that has a few icons on it that wont work. How can I fix this is it possible to go back and reinstall the older software ?
Unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks for the help though. I tried to uninstall and it said I couldn't because the file is corrupt or something, but I think I finally got it uninstalled and/or deleted or whatever, but now I try to reinstall/download it again from the beginning and I can't. No matter what I do I can not get Firefox working again. No matter how many times I try to redownload it. Any other suggestions?

hie there Actually um trying to update new iOS 7 for my iphone 4 but when i press the button to install new software suddenly it appears why " iOs 7 failed verification because you are no longer connected to the internet " even my phone is already connected to net
I tried powering down and re-starting the iPhone (as suggested at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275). This seems to have cleared the "...not connected to the Internet" problem, and iOS 6.1 is now in the process of downloading.
Thanks very much for your feedback. -
I went on Itunes to install new software and backup. It has been running all night and still saying preparing Iphone for restore. How long is this suppose to take?
Preparing your iPhone for restore its supposed to be about 1-2 minutes! Do you see any errors the time you plug in the wire from your iPhone to iTunes?

This is a brand new phone!!!
Hello jraff21,
I was able to locate a support article for the error you mentioned. The following steps may help you get your device back to working order:
iOS: Restore errors 4005, 4013, and 4014 - Apple Support
You may see one of these messages if the device unexpectedly disconnects during the update or restore or iTunes couldn't tell the device to go to the restore state.
The iPhone [device name] could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (4005).
The iPhone [device name] could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (4013).
The iPhone [device name] could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (4014).
Try these steps to resolve the issue:
Install the latest version of iTunes.
Restart your computer.
Make sure your computer is up to date. If an update requires a restart, check for updates again after you restart.
Restore using another USB cable.
Learn more about updating OS X.
Learn more about updating Windows.
Restore your device on another computer.
If you continue to see error 4005, 4013, or 4014 when you restore your device,contact Apple for support.
Learn more about other update and restore errors.

i am try to use my itunes which i have not used in a while trying to do all the upgrades. i have an older macbook but i cant download anything. so is apple saying that i will not be able to connect my iphone to macbook ever unless i get a new laptop?
Your MacBook is compatible with Mac OS X 10.6.8, which is the minimum required to install the current version of iTunes and sync devices running iOS 7. It doesn't need to be compatible with Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks.

i upgraded new software onto my iphone 4 however it stopped syncing and said error so when i tried to access my phone the itunes USB was showing in my phone screen and now i cannot access my phone
When it stopped and said error, what was the error? You are saying that you disconnected the phone from the computer and all you see is the USB showing on the phone? Then you need to reconnect to the computer and restore the phone.

i need to free up storage on my iPhone 4s to do an update. I have turned off my photo stream, but when I go into Usage Settings, it says that photo stream is using 3.7gb of space. How do I get rid of this?
iCloud is not designed to "store" photos (as in long term storage). iCloud can be used to sync photos from one device to another (photo stream) and to store a backup of the camera roll. But that's pretty much it.
Camera roll is the group of all photos taken by the device (but not other photos synced to the device from another source). Your extra storage on icloud will do you no good. The recommended way of storing photos on a device is to sync them to a computer.
So, your questions..
1) You don't/can't
2) No, because of 1.
3) On a computer, deleting large groups of photos is relatively painless. not so on a device.
4) You can't access photos on iCloud because they can't be store in icloud. You can't view/access photos in a backup on icloud unless you restore a backup to a device.
Read this... import photos to your computer...

I have just installed the latest software iOS 8.1.2 on my iPhone 4 s now i keep getting this message come up on the screen connect ti iTunes to use push notifications
Hello RogerfromCoulsdon,
In order to resolve this issue where you get the popup message to connect to iTunes to use push notifications, please reset your network settings.
Reset iPhone settings. Go to Settings > General > Reset, then choose an option:
Reset Network Settings: When you reset network settings, previously used networks and VPN settings that weren’t installed by a configuration profile are removed. (To remove VPN settings installed by a configuration profile, go to Settings > General > Profile, select the profile, then tap Remove. This also removes other settings or accounts provided by the profile.) Wi-Fi is turned off and then back on, disconnecting you from any network you’re on. The Wi-Fi and “Ask to Join Networks” settings remain turned on.

I guess the title says it all. So am i correct that I will need to wipe my phone and loose all my contacts that I have spent years accumulating along with all my other data? There were no passwords on this phone before downloaded the updated operating system. This makes no sense. Find my phone is very sporatic with this new operating system. Jumps back and forth between phones on its own. I am so frustrated with Apple!
When I downloaded the new softwared to my iphone, it put a password on my restrictions
No it didn't. You did, whether you realize it or not. Restrictions can only be enabled by user interaction. They don't just turn on by themselves.

Why do'nt you just restore the latest backup that was made prior to you applying the update? Problem solved?
