**Note**
I've recently tried updating my IPhone to the prompted 6.0.1 multiple times over that last few months. I connect the phone and click the update icon only to wait hour after hour for it to do nothing.
Once I let set my computer up to stay on so that the phone could update while I was at work and when I came home that evening there was still no change.
What could be going on?; because all my apple-guided trouleshouting has not helped.

How do I add simple text to a photo? For example, if I took a photo of a chalk board and wanted to add a date via Lightroom making it look like it was written on the chalk board, how would I do that?

I simply need to know how to do this. Everything online talks about doing this as a watermark feature or during Export only. I need to know how to do this during the Develop stage, if it's possible.
I took a photo of a couple for a pregnancy announcement shoot. We added a chalk board that had the date the birth is to take place written on it, but it didn't show as well when I reviewed the first couple pics. So I erased the chalk board thinking that I could just add the date via Lightroom, but I have been unable to figure it out. Any help would be very much appreciated.

To create a graphic watermark or identity plate for this purpose with a hand written chalk look you would need Photoshop or Elements to create a transparent PNG file so you might as well do the whole thing in one of those programs to start with. You can't do this in the develop stage anyway like you requested.

I have both an iMac and a Macbook Pro and I want to set up a dual monitor with them. How would I do that exactly?

Still not sure. Been trying to find out but can't get it working.
Do I use a specfic cable to connect the two, could it possibly work with bluetooth? Please help

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
27-inch iMacs and iMacs with Thunderbolt can be used as an external display > http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11302
If you have a iMac with Thunderbolt, your MacBook Pro must be an Early 2011 or newer one in order to use your iMac as an external display. You have to buy a Thunderbolt cable.
If you have a iMac with Mini DisplayPort, your MacBook Pro must have Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt. In both cases, buy a Mini DisplayPort cable.
If you don't meet one of those cases, you can't use your iMac as an external display. In this case (and if you want to use the MacBook Pro as an external display), you can use an app like ScreenRecycler to use an unsupported Mac as a display

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

sync your phone to itunes, then it should say update available. I suggest doing a backup of your phone first prior to updating your phone.

Dear Sir / Madam !
This is my iPhone details (Model A1507)
and it is lock now , I want to unlock it please inform me , is my iPhone has I cloud account if doesn’t have please check it and inform me and tell me how can I unlock it .
Thank you,
Best regards, Farhad
<Edited by Host>

'Locked' can have two meanings. It can mean locked to a specific carrier (service provider); if you want to unlock it to use it with another carrier only the original carrier can unlock it.
More likely you are talking about the other meaning, where a phone is 'Activation Locked'. Is this a second-hand (used) phone? If it is, and the previous owner has set up Activation Lock, this will prevent you doing anything with the phone at all.
If this is the case, only the previous owner can unlock it, either by giving you his Apple ID and password, or by removing it from his list of devices - details here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515
If you can't contact the previous owner to get him to do this you will be unable to use the phone. Only he can unlock it: Apple cannot do it for you.
On the other hand, if it is a new phone and you have managed to set up a passcode (though this is nothing to do with iCloud) please see this Apple Help page:

You cannot override it.

I want to remove a book from itunes. How would I do that?

I self published a book a while ago, but put it out as an amazon kindle and now need to remove it from here because of some exclusivity clause. How would I do that?

It's not currently possible to permanently delete any items from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they are less visible (which you can't currently do on devices on iOS 6) : hiding and unhiding.

I have a G4 that crashed backup data on a firewire drive.
Okay. Good thing it was only the backup. Replace the drive and back up the original data again. But this has nothing to do with iTunes.

HT1695 My wifi doesn't work at all, I talked to someone yesterday and they said I should have it replaced, How would I do that?

So basically I decited to download IOS 6.1 yestreday, and while I was at it I decited to set my ipod back to factory setting because I had too many pictures. So after I set it to factory settings I was setting it up but no matter what I did, the IPod wouldn't connect to my wifi. At first I thought it was my router, so I restarted it. It still didn't wiork. So then I went on my laptop and the internet worked fine on it. That's when I realized it was my ipod.... I talked to a apple person yesterday and he said I should get a replacement... How would I do that? I'm not sure...
