When I plug my iPhone into my computer to sync my iTunes I get a message that says "iTunes cannot read the content of the iPhone" and wants me to restore my phone back to factory settings. Any suggestions so that I don't have to restore? I have all of my stuff backed up on iCloud but I really don't want to go through the hassle of wiping it clean and putting everything back on.
This is a post from a user named edgar999 and it worked PERFECTLY:
"OK - this is how it works:
In order to backup from iCloud you cannot use iTunes!
Therefore disconnect your device from your computer.
Turn on your device and go to Settings and then go to General.
At the bottom of this submenu there is a buttom "Reset"
If you push that buttom you see 6 different Erase settings to chose from!
Chose "Erase All Content and Settings" because this will wipe everything from your device and will let you restore from iCloud! (I tried the top "Reset All Settings" but that did not let me use iClouds afterwards!)
Once you pushed that buttom your device will be wiped clean and after some time you will see the Device Welcome Screen like on a new device!
After choosing your location you will be asked to setup your WiFi-conection. After you joint to your Wifi you will be given the choice to restore the iPad from a backup from the iCloud. Choosing this backup will prompt you with your apple ID and password.
Restoring from a backup can take some time. The process uses your Wi-Fi connection to download settings, content and data. If you had a lot of content on your device, this can take a while. The restore screen should give you estimates at each stage of the restore process, starting with restoring the settings and then booting into the iPad. When the iPad home screen appears, the device will continue the restore process by downloading all of your applications.
If you are restoring from a backup because you have run into problems with your device that can only be solved by restoring it, you can first choose your latest backup. If you still have problems, you can move on to the next latest backup, repeating the process until (hopefully) the problem is cleared."
THANK YOU edgar999!!!! -

Sorry... But... The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.
There is No Workaroud for Activation Lock. -

Why do my iPhone cords for my 5 say it is not certified and may not work with this device? It's the same cord that came with my phone. The only difference is the iOS7 update.

HT4623 Why does my iphone say "Activation Error" during the updating process?
after updating my iphone, the process is like asking the language, then the country, and then the wifi right? after i connected to the wifi, i pressed "next" then it says "Activating your Iphone" then suddenly it says "Activation Error". what does this mean? can i just restore the previous version of this iphone again?
You cannot install the previous version. "Activaton error" usually means that the phone was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it from the carrier it was locked to. It is now locked again to that carrier.

Why is my iphone 4 SO slow updating!!!???
How much free space do you have? When was the last time you restarted the phone (Home & Sleep buttons held together)? Have you cleaned out unused apps?
All of these will diminish performance of your phone. -

When you say "off" do you mean it sleeps and comes back on instantly when you press the HOME or SLEEP buttons, or really turns off, so when you turn it back on you have to wait a couple of minutes for it to boot? -

You can not do so. 4.2.1 is the end of the line for the 3G. You will have to access it using Safari or get a new phone.

My iPhone5 went into restore mode. I restored it and now it goes into restore mode at least once a day.
Restore as new. If the issue persists, take the device to Apple for evaluation.

Why is Adobe Flash now asking me to quit 'QuicklookUIHelper' during install? I never had this issue before I upgraded to 10.8.5! Is there an alternative to Flash if I want to watch Youtibe or play material that uses Flash? Thanks in advance!
http://hoyois.github.io/safariextensions/clicktoplugin/ and other extensions work if the website has alternatives to the Flash content (much of youtube does) but otherwise, no.
You may need to restart before installing Flash.
