HT5622 How do I get my iPhone off of being disabled and "connect to iTunres"? It will not connect to iTunes.
I inadvertently pressed "emergency" then put in the too many times. I am technologicallly handicapped---that is how I got in trouble to begin with --> by playing with my iPhone 3G! Any and all help will be very much appreciated.
In one place on iTunes it says there are no problems then it tells me to press icons that are not available. My phone goes to telling me it is disabled ( phone is much like its user) to the phone key pad and that is as far as I am able to use the phone.
A needy nurse.
Although contacts are included with the iPhone's backup, not a good idea to depend on that and a cell phone alone for such important data which can be lost or stolen, damaged beyond repair, or a problem installing an update.
Contacts should be available on your computer as well and/or there are a number of free email accounts that support syncing contacts and other data over the air such as with an a Apple iCloud account (which also provides for updating your iPhone's backup automatically and wirelessly when the iPhone is connected to an available wi-fi network when connected to a power source), or with a Gmail, Yahoo, or Hotmail account.
If your iPhone's backup is being done with iTunes on your computer, the backup is updated as the first step during the iTunes sync process.

I updated an iPod touch, an iPad 2, and an iPhone 4 to iOS 6, and all of them now will not connect to WiFi. They all give this wierd 404 error page from Apple and insist that I need to login to the network. What's the fix? None of the recommended fixes work in any of these devices. Reset device, reset network, renew lease, etc. None of them work.
Does the iPod work OK?
Does it charge when connect to the computer?
Does it appear in My Computer?
Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Compare with the iPod that does work/connect.
I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1

Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here are the best two resources I could find that would walk you through the syncing process.

How can I get my iPhone out of landscape mode and back to portrait?
How can I get my iPhone out of landscape mode and back to portrait? Tilting the phone doesn't work.
Try following - 1 by 1:-
* make sure portrait lock is not on & try turning on/off several times
* turn off mobile and turned it back on
* hard reset by pressing lock and home at same time
If problem persist, you need to try following but be careful since the following impact your iphone.
* resetting all setting: this will reset all settings of your iphone back to factory setting
* resetting all setting by erasing all data: this will reset all setting and erase all data so do back-up and proper syncing and read relevant details
* restoring from itunes: this will also erase all data and take mobile back to day 1
last 3 options are last resort and only be done if you are sure you can restore your data.
Please don't hold me responsible for any data loss while doing last 3 options
Cheers! -

how do i get my music off my ipod touch and on to my new itune account with out losing my music
Transfer the iTunes folder from your old computer to your new computer. It's in your My Music >> iTunes folder. You'll probably need an external hard drive to do this. Make sure you upgrade the old and the new computers to the latest iTunes before transferring your music to the new machines.

How do i restore my wifi setting back to the factory settings? I have changed it somehow :/ and now my wifi will not connect. My Airport is on and showing full strength but will not connect.
Ok, if other devices are connecting but just not your MacBook then let's start troubleshooting the MacBook to possibly find out why.
Please try each of the following, in order, until hopefully resolved:
Note the following are excerpts from an OS X Daily article.
* Turn Airport on & off – You can do this via the Airport menu bar or from the Network Preferences. This is the first thing you should try when troubleshooting Mac wireless problems.
* Make sure Wireless/Airport card software & firmware is up to date – This is usually done just by going to the Software Update menu, if there are any updates available for your Mac or Airport, install them.
* Delete and recreate connection – Try deleting and recreating/reestablishing the wireless connection, sometimes a setting can be corrupted and this may fix it.
* Create a new Network Location – Similar to the above suggestion, try creating a new and different wireless network location to see if it resolves the connection problems.
* Change DHCP auto settings to manual – sometimes there is a problem with the DHCP server, and if you manually set an IP address on the network you can be fine. Remember to set the IP to a high number so it wouldn’t interfere with other DHCP machines. As long as you have the subnet mask, router, and DNS settings configured manually as well, this shouldn’t be a problem.
* Flush the DNS cache – Launch the Terminal and enter the following command onto one full line within the Terminal: dscacheutil -flushcache
* Zap the PRAM – Reboot your Mac and hold Command+Option+P+R during restart until you hear another chime, let the Mac boot as usual.
* Delete Wireless Config files – Delete com.apple.internetconfigpriv.plist and com.apple.internetconfig.plist files from ~/Library/Preferences and reboot
* Trash your home directories SystemConfiguration – Remove all files within ~/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ and then reboot your Mac.
* Reset your Mac’s System Management Controller (SMC) – For MacBook and MacBook Pro’s: Shutdown the MacBook/Pro, remove the battery, disconnect the power, hold the Power Key for 15 seconds. Replace the battery, reconnect power, and zap the PRAM and wait for 2 chimes before letting the keys go. Let boot as usual. -
my iphone plays pandora and youtube music but it will not play my itunes music whenever i try to hit play the button flips over to pause as normal but the music dosent work?
I can understand this with videos you are streaming, i.e. maybe you have a slow data connection.
Videos on your phone should not do this. Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings. -
How do I get my iPhone 4 to swipe up and down?
How do I get my iPhone to swipe up and down?
Your question is unclear... However... if you are having issues (and you have not actually stated any...)
Try this First...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

How do I get my music off of the cloud and back into my library
How do i get my music off the icloud and back into just my library? It started downloading my music in my library and put it on this icloud and now I cannot play the music in the library that has been downloaded on the icloud
iTunes should show you two copies of the file (track) one which is in the local music folder (on the laptop / pc) and one that is available from iCloud.

How do I get my Iphone 4S to sync to my compute?. Comcast deleted the connection.
I was connected to my computer with my Iphone 4S. Comcast deleted the connection. How can I get the Iphone to get hooked up to my computer to sync?
What do you mean Comcast deleted the connection? How can comcast delete the connection between your phone and iTunes?
You're going to need to clarify. This makes no sense.
Just plug your phone into the computer you are syncing with. What happens when you do? -

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
