HT4623 Why is the update to 6.1.3 forcing me to erase my phone to work with iTunes? I don't need it to work with iTunes!
Infuriating!!! I tried to install 6.1.3 -- my phone happened to be charging on my work computer. Now I get a picture of the doc and an iTunes logo on my iPhone screen, and am being forced by iTunes to Reset my Phone. Taking forever. Tried turning the phone off and on several times to no avail.
Shame on me for trying to to the update in the middle of the day -- but previous iOS updates have been very smooth.
Biggest joke is that I no longer use iTunes for much of anything. And now it's just messing me up and adding no value.
Thanks for sharing.

What about when using the "Time Capsule" HD as the external disk, especially when it is connected by ethernet cable? I'm having trouble getting it to work at all. Don't need it to work as anything else, other than a ethernet connected Time Machine backup. Already have a wireless network that works fine so no need to mess with it. We get the internet via cable company and their modem is upstairs and the Time Capsule is downstairs in the basement. The latest error message was about it could not backup as it was already in use (should have written it down before clicking OK and moving on.
See if this helps...

Why did the update of my iphone4 to the IOS 6, lose my UTube icon, and was replaced with a Passbook app.
Apple is no longer supporting YouTube with a native application starting with iOS 6.0. The "old" YouTube application was automatically removed when you upgraded, and it no longer exists in the new iOS. There are however, numerous third-party apps in the App Store which will allow you to view YouTube, including one from Google, which is the parent company for YouTube. Passbook is a new application to iOS 6.0 and is not at all related to YouTube.

What the heck is a "pass code" and why am I being asked for one?? And where would I find said pass code? I've not had to do that for prior updates, so am more than a bit confuzzed. Thanks.
The Passcode is the 4 digit code you use to unlock your iPad.

Why is the update so enormous?
Why is the update to 2.2.0.245 100MB? Can't you just update the components that need updating?
It's a waste of (expensive) data.Stu Ducklow
Why is my finder so slow to update. For example, if I
download a file (using Safari), I can't find it on
the desktop. If I use Find at the Finder level, it
says it's there, but I can't see it.
Same thing happens with Mail, trying to attach a PDF
I just made. Mail can't see it.
I love all the wondrous glitz of OSX, but wouldn't it
be nice if it could do the basic stuff as well as
System 6? At the rate Apple's going, we'll probably
get a breathless announcement about a spanking-new OS
called Snail, which doesn't do anything but look
pretty.
Stu,
Did you ever get an answer to this? My finder is pathetically slow to update, a minor irritation a dozen times a day. System 9 never had this problem. Is there a way to get my expensive computer to do this simple task? Is there any news on this?
thanks, -
Why does the update icon always on my desktop photoshop elements 10 icon
why does the update icon always stay on the photoshop 10 icon on my desktop?

We don't know because update function is hidden so deep in the Menu bar's help item that many people don't even know about it. Now you are telling us that an icon is on your desktop so this is completely unusual.
Are you sure it is not the icon for the PSE10 to make it easy for you to launch it? Can you post a screenshot of what is on your desktop.
We look forward to hearing from you soon. -
Why does the update change my home page and make Google so prevelant?
Several of the last "updates" involved the changing of my bookmarks and home page,. The so called update required me to spend more time in refreshing the browser to its previous condition. This is frustrating to say the least. Second why does the updated version of of firefox seem to favor google?
Normally, an update does not change your home page...
What did you home page change to? That might help identify the source of the problem.
I assume you have tried changing your home page back to your preferred site, either in the Options dialog or using one of the other methods:
* [[Startup, home page and download settings]]
* [[How to set the home page]]
Did that work at all? By "at all" I mean:
* Immediately after making the change, if you click the Home button, or launch a new window using Ctrl+n, does your preferred page load? Or is that ignored?
* Does the setting revert later in your session (you see in Options it has changed)?
* Does the setting revert after you exit and start Firefox up again?
* Is the problem only when you use your Firefox desktop shortcut?
With that information, it will be easier to recommend a solution.
I'm not sure I understand your second question. Google has always been the default search provider in Firefox. Are you seeing even more Google than that? -
was making the update for my iphone 4s . then he stops. My phone in this time is in the recovery mode and do not take the firmware to open my phone, please can u help me to recover my phone. My current ios 6.0.1. plese send me some thing that is useful
Thanks for that 'sberman' - because my iPhone is backed-up to my work computer (only at this stage) I have had to call our IT Department in Adleaide. (4 times this morning). The last guy managed to get the phone into 'DFU Mode' - no more recovery mode screen - (kind of 'asleep' perhaps) from my understanding of same. I am awaiting a call again from IT so they can get my computer to actually recognise my iPhone on the C Drive. This also happened to one of my colleagues in Newman (WA). She got so frustrated with the whole process that she bought another phone the next time she was in 'civilisation.' She hasn't had any problems since. (Cross fingers).
Thanks again, Sandra2474. -

Can you tell me if the upgrade from iOS 5 to iOS 7 is made OTA and that you don't need to plug in to iTunes using your PC. thx
If running iOS 5 or later, update can be OTA or via iTunes.
Be sure to have a good backup. OTA requires at least 3 GB
free on your iPhone, less if done via iTunes. Make sure your
iPhone is fully charged and you have a good wifi connection
before attempting OTA update. -

HT4623 Why Did this update result in changes to the apple id on my phone?
Why did the recent update cause so many problems on my new iphone?
The update would not result in changes to your Apple ID.
As for your other question it is impossible to answer since you haven't mentioned any specific problems.
I (and millions of others) updated to iOS 6.1.3 with no problems whatsoever.
What problems do you have? It is possible that some corruption occurred when you were updating your iPhone. -
why I cannot update my ipad from 5.1.1 to latest versions? Some of the apps wouldn't work on the 5.1.1 . To buy a new ipad,would be a rip off. What is the solution?
The original iPad does not have the memory and processing power to run more recent version of the iOS. 5.1.1 is the latest it can run.
