Thank You!

If your iPhone is already on IOS 5, then Software update can be done on your iPhone under Settings > General > Software Update.
But if your iphone's ISO is 4 or before, it can only be done through your computer iTunes.

    Trying to restore my iphone 5c, but it says i have to turn off the 'find my phone' option in icloud.  when i try, it brings up the wrong apple id.  I reset it under itunes & app store in settings but still not working...frustrated!

    Open iTunes on computer, connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, click Restore button of iTunes on computer.

    What do I need to do to fix this problem?

    This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes for Windows forums.

  • I've lost my iphone 4 but it did not have a SIM at the time that i lost it. i desperately need the photos on the phone as they are very precious. when i go onto find my phone on my laptop, it says my phone is in my neighbours tree. help!

    how can i find out the whereabouts of my phone, as it has no internet connection. please help! i need it desperately! if the location of the phone cannot be found, the photos are what i really need. they have a deep sentimental value to me and my family and it would be a tragedy to lose them all as the event where the photos were taken will never reoccur. please please please help me. i need to find my phone.

    An iOS device cannot be tracked without an internet connection.  All you can do is physically look for it.  Your camera roll photos are included in your iCloud backup.  Should you be unable to find the phone, restoring the backup to another iPhone (or iPod touch) should recover them.  Bear in mind that Apple will delete iCloud backups after 180 days of inactivity so be sure to access the backup before then.
    You can also access photo stream photos from the last 30 days by setting up iCloud on your computer and enabling my photo stream (see https://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/).

  • My friend wants to put music on their iPhone 5C but they do not have a laptop with iTunes that hasn't been associated with another iPhone/iPod. Is there any way they can skip linking their phone to the iTunes and JUST get the music?

    The iPhone has not been associated with any iTunes as I was a little scard to connect it to mine as I do not want all my friend's apps on my phone. Also, we use different apple IDs so would we be able to have two apple IDs associated with one computer?
    SO CONFUSED.
    Please help!

    Your friend can get a new Apple Id for themselves, and create a different account on one of the laptops. Then put all their music in a separate iTunes library, and sync the phone to that particular library.
    This will keep there music separate from your library and their brother's library.
    Just make another User on your computer for your friend to store their music in.

  • I'm trying to synce my iPhone 4s but it isn't completing the last step (step 7).

    I'm trying to synce my iPhone 4s but it isn't completing the last step (step 7). It says "waiting for items to copy." The stripped bar just continues to move to the right. Even if I try to cancel it stalls there too. I have to eject the iPhone from the computer to make it stop.

    See the "Update your device using iTunes" section in:

  • I tried to restore my iphone 6, but it failed

    I tried to restore my iphone 6, but it failed, it is error 9

    Hey Leonard,
    If you are having an issue with being unable to restore your iPhone, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - 
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes - Apple Support
    Should the issue still be present, use the steps for that error code in this article -
    Get help with iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
    In particular the section titled Check your security software -
    Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1611, 9006. Sometimes security software can stop your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.
    Check your security software and settings to make sure that they aren't blocking a connection to the Apple servers.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Happy computing,
