why does my phone tell me that when after updating ios 5.1 that an error has ocurred,ive tried 3 times and im still getting the same message?

Call Apple in the morning.
Possibility could have been you had caps lock on entering your security answer either now or when you set it up from the beginning.
Apple will help you out and you will be in good shape.
If you are not into phone calls then try to make an appointment at your local Apple store and they can fix it for you in no time.

    Why does iPad 3 4G constantly restart after 8.3 update only when docked with iMac?

    That question is impossible to answer without more information. What troubleshooting steps have you performed? Did you try using another cable? Did you try using another USB port on the Mac? Did you reboot the Mac and reset the iPad? Have you tired restoring the iPad?

  • Why does Elements 12 crash as soon as I open Type tool?  Get message "An unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred.  Photoshop Elements will now exit.  Using Mac

    Why does Elements 12 crash as soon as I open Type tool?  Get message "An unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred.  Photoshop Elements will now exit."  Using Mac.  No imported fonts

    Thank you, Barbara.  All fonts seemed fine, no empty or duplicates.  When I went back to Elements and tried again, it did not crash!  After months of not being able to use type tool,,, not sure why it worked, but it did.  Thanks again!  I appreciate the time you took to answer my question.

  • TS3297 Any idea why I can't purchase stuff off either iTunes or AppStore? I am getting a message saying unknown error has occurred immediately I enter my password.

    Any idea why I can't purchase stuff off either iTunes or AppStore? I am getting a message saying unknown error has occurred immediately I enter my password.

    Brett,
    Well done getting the wireless network secured.
    You have to precede the (hex) password with a '$' in Mac OS, to tell the Internet Connect dialog box that you are keying a hex password (rather than ASCII). This is because the Mac has detected that the network is WEP protected, and leaves it to you to decide how you want to key the password.
    As an alternative, in Internet Connect (or from the AirPort icon menu), you can elect to join an "Other" network. If you select your network again, it'll come up with "WEP Password" as the option of Wireless Security. You can change this to "WEP 40/128-bit hex" and then not have to precede your password with the '$'.
    Alternatively, you could tell us the make and model of your wireless router and we can tell you how to set, and use an ASCII password. From your 10-character hex password, we can see that you're using 40/64-bit WEP. Non-Apple routers can be a bit fussy when using ASCII passwords with 40-bit WEP (don't worry, this is also true for Windows PC's using 40-bit WEP too), but we can talk you through it.
    As a final alternative, as you have such a whizzy Mac, as long as your wireless router supports it, you could use WPA security, and never have to worry about ASCII / hex / '$', etc. Older Macs (particularly original AirPort cards - not AirPort Extreme - and OS9) were limited to 40-bit WEP.

    That would be problem number 1.  The device MUST be connected to the Internet to download software updates.
    I am guessing you are trying to download an iOS update, common causes for the error you mentions are Anti-Virus or Firewall software on the computer preventing files from downloading.
    If this doesn't address your issue, try rewording your issue so that we can better understand the problem you are having.

    By removing content from the iPad. Transfer content into iTunes, sync the iPad and backup - and then unsync the content from the iPad. That way the content is stored in iTunes, and backed up so you can resync it at a later time if you want to.

  • Why does my imovie 9 say "alert" after trying to upload movie to Youtube?

    I'm trying to upload a movie from iMovie 9 to Youtube.  After I push "Publish" a screen from iMovie comes up saying "alert."  What does this mean?

    OK yes I am using the Share to Facebook option and it's still not working.  I even called Apple and they helped me export from iPhoto to iMovie and it's still not working.  My camera ia a Canon and I used their upload to Facebook option and it's still not working.  I get this error message Apple-scc a report that goes to Apple when the computer hangs up.
    All I know is I've had this iMac for about 3 years and have never had a problem with it.  It is a 21-inch 3.2 Ghz, Mac OSX and I don't know where you look and see how much memory is available.

    Go to the featured tab of the App Store and swipe down to the bottom. Tap on your Apple ID. Tap View Apple ID in the pop up window. Then enter your password.

    why does my phone disconnect after 4 hours of call time? Is there anyway I can change this?

    You mean that you're on a single call for 4 hours continously, and then it disconnects?
    If so, contact your wireless carrier.  That's a cellular connection issue.
