I downloaded the new software on my iPad and I can't get the iMessage to work

I downloaded the new software and when I try to sign in to my iMessage it says the network connection isn't working it then won't let me download anything from the stores. However it let's me sign in to the iCloud and the Internet connection is fine.

If you have updated to iOS 5 then when you want to use messages you need register by going into settings then go to messages and then turn it on and use your apple I tunes ID. You can only use it between other updated devices.

Are you sure it's not 6.1.6? If it is, that is the latest iOS version that will work on a 4th generation iPod Touch. Later versions require a 5G iPod which has twice as much RAM.

Sure, you can get around it if you don't need the newest version of iTunes. I still use version 7.5 because the newer versions didn't strike me as offering anything I needed.
If you do need a version 10-something then you will have to upgrade your operating system to Leopard (fi your computer will support it) at least. If you need 10.5 for some reason then there's no getting around it, you will have to buy a new computer.

But hey thanks for your help,

Then that is what you need to do.
Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
Then...
1) Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore

HT5624 I just updated the software on my iPad and now can't get all the open files to close as I used to in older version. When I double-click the round button, the open programs show up, but I can't hold down to have the "x" appear to close them. Help.

I just downloaded the updated software and now can't shut down open programs like I used to by holding downthe round button, having them appear at the bottom of the screen, holding them down for the "x" to appear and then closing them by clicking "x". I can get the program icons to appear, but don't know how to shut them off now.

Swipe up or drag up on the app window to close the app.

Hate the new Itunes update....how can I get the older version back?

Anyone know??? Thanks for the help.

Google "old apps itunes" and you'll find a site with downloads of earlier versions. At first, you'll be told that iTunes can't access your music library because it's a newer version, but you can get around that by dragging the music data file onto iTunes. There's also a tutorial on YouTube that explains pretty clearly how to go back to older versions of iTunes.

My nephew put the Hallmark Channel on my computer and I can not get the sound turned off.

My nephew put the Hallmark Channel on my computer and I cannot get the sound turned off.

Is this a separate application? Where did your nephew install it? If you do a force quit (command - option - esc) does it show up so you can force quit it?

I just changed the channel on my Airport Extreme and now can't get the Airport Express to recognize the network. What do?

I changed the channel on Airport Extreme to get away from interference. Now I can't get my airport express to recognize the network. What do I do?

I would suggest that you perform a "hard" reset on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), and then, using the AirPort Utility, reconfigure it "join" or "extend" the AirPort Extreme as appropriate for your networking requirements.

My computer crashed and was restored and now I can't get my ITunes play lists and other things restored. I just up loaded the new software to my IPad and it is like I am starting over! How do I get the my library back?

I need help retrieving my ITunes the way it was before my computer was restored and upgraded.

This is why it has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Certainly you did nhot restore your computer without making sure your backup copy was up to date.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
