HT4972 After syncing my iPad2 to iTunes, I can't get it to work again.

Ok, so I wanted to update my iPad2 in order to get the iOS5 (not even really sure what that it). So, I hooked it up to my computer, which is not the original one I had synced it to. It wanted to restart everything from the original iPad settings, so I stopped it.  I then hooked my iPad up to my original computer. When I looked at iTunes it had all my Apps, etc on it and I hit the "sync" button.  It looked like everything was syncing just fine.  But, when it was all done and I go back to using my iPad, it is saying to either: 1) set up as new iPad (which I don't want to do), 2) restore from iCloud backup (don't know how to do this) or 3) restore from ITunes backup...this is what I clicked on. I then plugged my iPad back into my computer with iTunes and started again. However, I can't get any further than this.  Nothing is happening!  Help!!!!!

That message means that you have to restore the iPad now. Something went wrong. You need to restore the iOS software and then restore from the backup.
Read this carefully and follow the instructions. Make sure that you restore from your backup at the end of the process. That is covered at the bottom of the support article.

    Printer had been set up and was working but a paper interruption stopped it and I can not get it to print or remove the offline setting

    You won't be able to open CC files in CS2, that is to many versions back.

    Hello Louise,
    There are a couple of ways that you can download your apps to iTunes on your computer. 
    First, you can transfer your purchases to from your iPhone to your computer using the steps in this article:

    If it's showing the red disabled screen due to incorrect passcodes then you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad via your computer's iTunes and restore/resync your content to it

    There is no other way than to plug into a computer to restore the phone. You can use another computer to do so, but in case you did not back up to iCloud your data and settings will be gone.
    Follow this article to connect in recovery mode:

  • I'm getting "Unknown Error 6" when trying to upgrade my iPhone 4S to iOS 8.1.  The phone is then stuck on the red iTunes logo + USB screen.  How can I get the phone working again?

    I've tried upgrading my iPhone 4S using iTunes 12.01.26 on 4 different computers at home and at the office:
    Macbook Air - OS X version 10.7.5
    Macbook Pro - OS X Yosemite
    2 PCs running Windows 7 Professional
    iTunes downloaded the installer and the installation process seemed to get 90% complete before showing the error, "The iPhone, "iPhone" could not be updated. An unknown error occurred (6)."
    The phone is now stuck on the red iTunes logo screen:
    How can I get it out of this mode?
    I've tried holding the power button and home buttons down for ten seconds, then letting go of the power button, but keeping the home button down for another 10 seconds.  I've also tried Reiboot, Wondershare Dr. Fone in desperation to try to get the phone out of this mode.  Nothing seems to fix it.
    If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

    i do that but it keeps getting stuck on the 'preparing to restore i phone' screen for a few mins before coming up with 'unknown error 1603'.
    Just doublechecking. Have you worked through the 1603-specific instructions from the following document?

  • When ever I try to sync my iPad2 to itunes i can never completely "update and download" because after the entire process it says "Error: unable to complete update /download, network timed out"!  Why? I have wi-fi in my house

    I can't complete my iPad2 update and download, ever.  It says my network timed out and I don't know why.

    Temporarily turn off any firewall or anti-virus software you have on your PC while downloading.

    I see you are using a PPC Mac with OSX 10.5.8.
    Either you can use the last release from Mozilla worked on PPC which is 3.6.*.
    The current 3.6.22 is at http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    Or use a third-party build from http://tenfourfox.blogspot.com/2011/08/601-now-available.html
    As of Firefox 4.0 and newer a '''Intel''' Mac and OSX 10.5+ is required.

  • After updating my ipad to os7 I can't get Netflix to work

    AAfter updating my ipad to iOS.7.0.2 my Netflix will not work.  What do I do to get this taken care of?  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

    First try removing the app then re-installing it. If this doesn't work
    Try a Restart.  Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears. 
     Resetting your settings You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it. 
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.   Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.    http://www.apple.com/contact/

  • After recent updates my macbookpro builtin camera does not work on Firefox. How can I get it to work again?

    camera worked the day before - updates loaded Saturday evening. Sunday morning the camera doesn't work through Firefox. It works on other applications (iChat, Photobooth, etc) but not through Firefox.

    It works in FF4.0.1! "Right-click on a toolbar then choose "Customize". Look for the ruler icon in the popup that appears and drag it where ever you'd like it to appear. I put mine back at the top of my dev tool bar. Handy Little Tool!

  • How can I get ThinkVantage button working again? (after a full HD rebuild)

    WindowsXP Pro, ThinkPad T60   (2007-F4G / UT0F4UK)
    Hi
    How do I get my Thinkvantage button working again?
    Background:
    I had a virus attack and as a precaution I zero-ed my ENTIRE hard disk (using KillDisk). I have managed to re-install most things, including I now have an icon on the taskbar called "Launch Lenovo ThinkVantage Toolbox". However I would prefer it to be fired up by my pressing the (blue) ThinkVantage button at the top of my keyboard.
    I have refused point blank to pay the (outrageous) price of GBP 40.00 for Lenovo to send me a CD with Windows etc on it, but have managed (eventually) to rebuild the entire disk driver by driver until the ThinkVantage Toolbox thing (version 6.0.5449.31) could take over and bring my drivers up to date when I Update my system.
    (It's just that they may have gone in incorrectly??)
    Is there something I should have done during installation.

  • My Microsoft Office 2004 stopped working after upgrading to MT.  How can I get it to work, or, how can I uninstall MT?

    My Microsoft Office 2004 stopped working after upgrading to Mountain Lion.  How can I get it to work again, or, how can I uninstall MT?

    Office 2004 Applications Won't Work in Lion
    You must have Office 2004 which is a PPC-only suite and will not work in Lion. You need to upgrade to Office 2011 - Mactopia - or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, that is functionally similar to Office 2007 for Windows except it works on Lion.
    You may want to consider as well:
    These two suites are similar to Libre Office but not as current or as well-supported:
    NeoOffice
    Open Office
    And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
    Pages - word processing and layout
    Keynote - presentation
    Numbers - spreadsheet
    Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
    (Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)
