This means that you are using a different computer to update it from the one you usually sync to. Alternatively, it may mean that you never sync to a computer.

I am trying to update my phone but it says that it will delete all of my music and pictures if I do. How do I fix this???
See Here for one way
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
Or...
From your Old Computer... Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..
An Added Bonus is that you will then have a Backup of iTunes...

So i don't know the password to my ipod and it's disbled. i also don't have a computer. What should i do? Is there a possible way i could unlock my ipod without losig=ng anything?
You maybe able to get the photos off the iPod by:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
You will have to then restoe the iPod via iTunes. It may be necessary to place the iPod in Recovery mode to allow the restore. -

It has NEVER been possible to purchase an unlocked iPhone 3G in the US. Your phone was hacked. Updating it has re-locked it to AT&T. AT&T will NOT unlock iPhones for any reason.
The phone is now useless to you. There is no legitimate way to fix this. Buy a new phone. Preferably in India. -

Hello ashharuddin,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information, take a look at:
iPhone: Troubleshooting No SIM
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4148
Toggle Airplane mode On and Off.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
Check for a carrier settings update. Tap Settings > General > About. If an update is available, a prompt will appear.
Remove the SIM Card and verify that it is a valid, carrier-manufactured SIM. Also verify that it is not damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.
Restore the iPhone.
Have a nice day,

itunes says that the version of software on my ipod touch 3rd gen is up to date, but IOS 5 is avaliable. I have checked for software updates for days but it keeps saying that 4.2.1 is the current version. Why cant i get IOS 5?

because you do not have a 3rd generation device. The OS Version says so , otherwise you would be at 4.3.5 minimum and also Itunes is also always correct in determining if you have the latest OS ( if not it fetches the newest from Apple's Servers ) . And because a 2nd generation iPod stops at 4.2.1 you can't get the newest OS, because your device is old. Buy a new iPod , they have iOS5 preinstalled. -

I am trying to upgrade my iPhone 4 to the latest iOS via iTunes, but I keep getting a message saying that an error [-5000] occurred and continuing will delete all content on my iPhone. What's the solution?
okay I've done everything regarding the transfer process (via file>transfer purchases) and syncing, so everything on my iPhone device seems to have been transferred to my iMac... however, I still get that message ("There are purchased items on the iPhone..."), trying to upgrade the iOS Have tried several times the same process of hitting transfer purchases via file, but nothing seems to make that message go away! Would have been nice to know which files I actually do need to transfer, which I don't get any info on of course...
Starting to get really annoying this thing.. Any smart suggestions what's going on? -

I want to update my Ipod Touch 4th Generation with the 5.0 version, but it says, "Updating it to iOS 5 will delete all of the media, including Itunes store purchases, on your Ipod Touch. To preserve this content, apply this update on the computer where you sync music, videos, and pictures." How do I prevent this from erasing everything on my Ipod?
You don't prevent this from happening. This is the way it is.
Everything should be on your computer. Is it not?
You should never update without making sure that everything is on your computer and backed up. -
I have a new computer and have installed iTunes on it.
Now I want to sync my iphone but the new itunes on the new computer wants to remove everything on my niphone and replace it with what's on the newly installed itunes data but it does not have my data.

There is no way to stop iTunes from doing exactly what it is designed to do.
The iPhone is designed to sync with one and only one computer.
If you have moved/copied your iTunes library from your old computer to your new one, then iTunes wiping your device is no problem. You would simply sync and iTunes will put all the content back. -
I was updating my iphone 4 on computer on itunes. After 45 mins or so, I got message that software was updated. But my iphone needed to be restored as it is in recovery mode. it staes that all data will be deleted!! Will I be able to recover data, apps, photos, etc? My phone will not even allow me to use it....it just has picture of itunes with connector on screen. HELP!
If your phone is in recovery mode, you've already lost ALL of the data on the phone. Your only choice now is to restore it from your most recent backup. You follow this by syncing your content back to your phone. Any data, on your phone, not backed up or in supported applications on your computer, is gone. iTunes content you can re-download for free.
