  • Ipad screen is white. Restored it on iTunes. Press home and on switch goes black then back to white with no logo at all. Can't get past the white screen. This happened after running app updates. 16GB OS 7.1.1

    The ipad screen is white. Holding buttons didn't work so I restored it on iTunes. When I press home and on switch, the screen is white,  goes black then back to white with no logo at all. Can't get past the white screen. This happened after running app updates. Is there any fix besides going to Apple store? In iTunes on computer can see what is on there. 16GB OS 7.1.1

    FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note:
    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
    2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
    3. Repeat the process if necessary.

  • My Safari will not allow me to open my Google calendar with Google Apps. I have to open my email with the older version of Google Apps. This happened after I installed 5.1.4. I tried to use the fix of changing to 64 bit by unchecking the 32 bit box no go

    My Safari will not allow me to open my Google calendar with Google Apps. I have to open my email with the older version of Google Apps. This happened after I installed 5.1.4. I tried to use the fix of changing to 64 bit by unchecking the 32 bit box but that didnt help.

    I assume that there are legal restrictions on the way in which iTunes can get artwork automatically from any source apart from the iTunes Store (which is what the right-click > Get Album Artwork function uses).  For example, even though the Gracenote service that iTunes uses to match CDs and retrieve metadata (artist, album, track titles, etc.) also has artwork functions, iTunes does not make use of these.
    For manual addition of artwork, there are three cases where the image you select may not be correctly embedded in your media files:
    your media are in a format that doesn't accommodate embedded artwork - typically WAV files.  To embed artwork you'll need to convert to another format - Apple Lossless or AIFF if you want to preserve lossless quality, AAC or MP3 otherwise.
    your media files are read only - to fix this, use Windows Explorer to find the folder that contains your files, right-click and select Properties.  On the General tab there's a check box labeled "Read-only" - if this is checked, or is grey (sometimes blue), click the box so that the flag is unchecked and the box is white.  Click OK, and then OK again when the "Apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files" option selected.  Now try adding the artwork again.
    Windows permissions issues are preventing iTunes from updating your media files (there's some anecdotal evidence of a change in this behavior in iTunes 12).  See turingtest2's notes on Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows for advice on fixing this, then try adding the artwork again.

  • Why can't I open iTune Store on my PC?   When I click on the iTunes Store box, I get the message that the iTunes Store has stopped working.  This happens everytime.  What is wrong with my download?

    My PC is running Windows 7.  I have downloaded the new OS Version for iTunes onto the computer.  It all works fine from the iPod Touch, but when I click the block for the iTunes Store, I get the message that "iTunes has stopped working".  What is wrong? How can I fix it so I can purchase from the store on my PC instead of having to use the small keyboard on the iPod Touch?

    There's an issue currently that a lot of us are experiencing in that we all get the error message "iTunes is currently unavailable; please try later"
    It's an issue with Apple and we're awaiting an update re this
    I've posted a topic in regards to this after having a long conversation with Apple support this morning and will be receiving a call from their tech team tomorrow to run through it further
    As it stands iTunes cannot be accessed via ATV's and nor can it be streamed via AirPlay from iTunes to the ATV
    However I can access all films/iCloud content via my Mac Mini with no issues!

  • When I select a photo from photo library, the wrong picture displays.  Why is this happening?

    When I select a photo from the Photo Library, the wrong picture displays.  I'm unable to find the picture selected, making it very difficut to apply wall paper or to contacts.  Why is this happening?

    I restarted the phone and forced the app to close and neither resolved the issue.  I then had the bright idea to remove the sync of photos and remove all the photos from the device.  I checked the Photos app and it was empty.  I then synced again with the photos selected and all the pictures were restored.  The photo library now displays the photo I select.

  • Why is it not showing anything after I plugged in my USB hard drive? I cannot locate the drive in my macbook. FYI this happened after few times using it.

    I need help as I am new to IOS.
    Currently it is not showing anything after I plugged in the hdd to my mac book.

    I had the same exact issue, which you can see in another forum.
    I "killed" both my MBP and my wife's MBP by plugging in my iPhone and getting a  message about USB drawing too much power.
    It was not fixed by using an SMC reset.
    I DID fix it by unplugging the battery, I left it unplugged long enough to remove the RAM, HD and put some RAM and HD back into place. (I initially swapped the RAM and HD from my MBP into my wife's MBP.
    After that everything was good, although upon first boot, some apps crashed because of the "system date" being set to a date before 2000. I forget the exact date, but it will be some time in 1984, the birthdate of the Macintosh. It is not a big issue, just correct the date and time.
    If you are curious about that date, copy a large file on your drive and look at the CREATED/MODIFIED date....it will show this same date, until the copy is complete, at which time you will see the correct one.
    Once again, try to disconnect your battery, very carefully by lifting up the connecter evenly on both sides to avoid damaging the connector or the board.

  • I tried updating my device and now the screen is frozen with the connect to itunes symbol please can you offer advice on how I can unfreeze this screen

    I tried synching my phone to apply an update, but the screen has frozen with the itunes symbol. Is there a way I can unfreeze the screen, can anyone help please?

  • HT4623 My husband just did the update for his iPhone 4, his phone is frozen with the iTunes page and a usb cable across the homescreen. He's tried holding down all the buttons all at the same time. can't shut it off. popped out the sim card, won't charge

    We just did the iPhone update ios 6. The screen is frozen with the iTunes logo and a picture of a USB cale across the screen. none of the buttons respond.The phone does not recognize the apple USB when connected. We tried holding all the buttons down at the same time and also removed the SIM card and reinserted.

    If it's not being recognized while it's in recovery mode in your itunes, try this
    plug the phone into the usb attached to the computer
    hold down the home and sleep/wake button on top simultaneously until the phone's screen goes black
    When the screen goes black, release your finger from the sleep/week button on top but continue holding the home button until you see a dialog on the itunes screen on your computer that says 'itunes has detected a device in recovery mode'
    then say 'ok,' select 'restore,' and say 'restore and update'

  • HT201303 I have rented 2 movies the past 9 days and they won't transfer to my iPad - error message says that they cannot be played on my iPad.  I haven't watched either movie and this is the first time I have ever had this happen.

    I have rented 2 movies the past 9 days and they won't transfer to my iPad (first generation).  Get the same error message that says they cannot be played on my iPad.  I haven't watched either movie and this is the first time I have ever had this happen after several successful movie rentals and transfers.

    I don't have an iPad to test this, so I can only refer you to Apple's Podcast Tech Specs page:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#formattingvideo
    This says that the maximum video size for an iPad is 1024x768 - your latest episode is 1280x720.
    Slightly confusingly, it also says
    'iPad & Apple TV can play the following video formats:
    H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format'
    which suggests that mp4 files are even more limited.
    Incidentally your feed gives this URL for the media file:
    http://www.honywoodschool.com/user/59/133934.mp4
    However when downloaded this produces a file called 'howtosetupappeid.mp4' so soe sort of redirect appears to be in place, and these can sometimes cause trouble. It's better to link directly to the file - it's possible that the iPad doesn't handle the redirect.
    That's all I can suggest: if it still doesn't cover the problem I can only refer you to the iPad forum where someone may be able to actually try your podcast and offer a comment.

  • HT1414 i was asked to update my ipad to the newesr version of OS7-it was like OS7.2 or whatever, and my screen is now frozen with the iTunes symbol in the middle and the connector cord profile and arrow pointing at it.  What should I do?

    I was prompted to update my ipad from OS 7 to  OS 7.2 and did so.  Now my ipad is frozen with the itunes symbol in the middle of the screen and the profile of the cord with an upward arrow toward the itunes symbol.  What should I do?

    Do what the picture is trying to tell you to do:  connect your iPhone to the computer you normally use to sync, and restore the iPhone from iTunes on that computer.
