I had a friend replace the battery in my iphone 4 and now itunes does not recognize it. The phone just has the apple coming on and off on the scree.
I put it into restore mode last night but did not apply it because I would lose all of my data.Any suggestions on what I can do.
Thanks

Make an appointment at the genius bar. Take your credit card. An out of warranty replacement is $229. It's cooked.

My phone crashed and has an icon showing a usb cable and the itunes emblem. when I connect to itunes it does not recognize my phone and treats it as just iphone. when I try to restore about 9 to 10 minutes into the restore the phone turns off and then on and then loses the connection with itunes and at the end of the download it just asks me to restore it again.
Be prepared to lose everything on your iPhone but it should be backed up in iTunes so you can restore from your backup.
Try Recovery Mode... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 -
Hi, my iphone 5 encountered an unknown error while updating to iOS 7 via itunes and is now stuck in recovery mode and prompts me to restore the phone when I connect it to itunes but then I would lose all my data. I DO NOT have any back ups on itunes. Is there anyway to get out of recovery mode without restoring or recover data after a restore?
Or any other suggestions please? ThanksAs pdroth said, you should have gotten a backup made when you started the update of iOS. If you cannot find a backup, and the phone is in recovery mode, there are no futher suggestions to make. To get the phone working again you have to restore. You cannot force a backup at this time since it is already in recovery mode. It will not allow anything else but a restore at this point.

I bought an apple iPod 5th generation the other day and I cannot remember the unlock passcode. I have done the restore thing, but because I never set it up or synced it with iTunes, it does not recognize my device. It is disabled for one hour. There's only a few things that could be my passcode, but because it disables for an hour, it is time consuming trying to figure it out. What do I do? I do not care about having to erase everything since it's new and there's nothing on it, but it was never synced with iTunes.
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -
After I updated lion to 10.7.4, app store does not recognize my ID APPLE and it unable to connect me to app store in order to update/download apps? What have I to do? I have the same problem with mac mini e mac book air. Please help me!
Your advice did not help me. I also installed 10.7.4 combo but the situation is the same.
my internet connection is ok, mail is ok, but app store after 3 resets does not recognize my ID and it says "connection is not possible". Why? I have the same problem in both my mac mini late 2009 and mac book air 2010? Is it a problem of 10.7.4 update? I have to solve this problem and how can i return to 10.7.3 if my last backup was not with 10.7.3???thank you for your kind collaboration... -
Itunes Store Does Not Have The Band "Headstones" Discography
I searched them like 5 different names whether it be song or artsist and there's no trace of them, except that there lead singer Hugh Dillon's solo stuff is on there and it says listeners alo bought and a name on their is "headstones" but when i click on it.
it brings me to the rolling headstones or the gettin' headstones.
my buddy searched them up and said the were on their but i can't find them. am i doing something wrong or what?The iTunes Store does not have 100% of all music that exists, so it is possible they simply don't sell it. (FYI the iTunes USA Store does not have them.) Ask your friend where he saw them and maybe that will help track it down. You can also check other online music download retailers.
If that does not help, the used Headstones CDs are readily available, which you can buy and rip into your iTunes library. -
hi um i have the ipod 5 and my computer seems to be fine with the wifi but when i pressed wifi and my wifi does not pop up it i put it on airplane mode reset the networks erased my safari history . and it still has not read my wireless internet ?
If not:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Then:
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

My ipad 2
suddenly quit retrieving my Yahoomail. I have checked my settings and done all suggestions, except deleting and restarting my Yahoo acct. Yahoo says I would loose all my data. Please fix this. What to do?You can safely delete your account FROM YOUR IPAD with no issues what so ever. I've done it a few times.
Go into the settings, mail, contacts and calendars, delete the account and then re add it. (What yahoo means about losing your data is if you close down your account with them, not just off your devices)
If you do remove it from your iPad, it will delete hte data. But just off your device. (at least taht's been my experience). Once you readd hte account it'll redownload the mails.
Or you can also just wait. Yahoo has been 'improving' their servers and have been causing randomly persistent outages for months now. Usually when they are working on the server your mail is on, you have issues.
You can wait them out or find work arounds. For example, even if hte mail app messes up, you can still use safari to access your mail. -
I plugged in my ipod to my computer and I had the option to sync the new software and I did. Just as it was done itunes couldn't recognize my ipod and my only choice would be to restore back to store settings but I would loose ALL my data
Yes, you probably will but then you simply load your backup.

The iTunes store does not load when I open it
So I recently had to install the latest version of iTunes after I upgraded to the newest version of iOS on my iPhone 4 (iOS 6.0.1) because the older iTunes version wasn't compatable with the newest iOS version. I had been using a much older version of iTunes becuase every time I would update the iTunes store without fail would stop working. I spent almost an entire day trying to fix it like 6-8 months ago and I finally got it to work with one of the older versions, which was why I was mad that I had to update it again.
Anyways, the iTunes store will not load at all. Everytime I open up iTunes on my computer (I have Windows Vista) and I try to go to the iTunes store, it never loads. It keeps saying "Accessing iTunes Store" (see image). I have tried to wait it out, but nothing ever changes.
I have already tried reinstalling iTunes and tried reinstalling the newest version, neither of which helped. I also tried what they suggested at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4123 but the only item that came up under the Winsock Providers tab was the Apple one.
Not sure what else to do. Any suggestions?That's exactly like saying, "Hey, try this. It didn't work either. Good luck!"
It's the high-percentage play with the particular symptom set being reported. High-percentage implies that it doesn't work for some people. (Otherwise it'd be a 100% play.) So, it still makes sense for people to try it, even if it doesn't work for some people, because it does work for most people. Check other posts by wiclee using that set of instructions to get a better feel for the reliability of the advice in these circumstances. (Granted, that's a bit tricky given that only about 10-20 percent of people report back to say whether or not any advice (on any given topic) actually works.) -
Itunes still does not recognize my cd/dvd writer drive Apple Support Forum
After following the instruction in the Apple Support Forum, by reinstalling iTunes, accessing REGEDIT and removing the lower filter key (the upper filter key was never there to begin with) and rebooting, iTunes will still not recognize either of my cd/dvd rom/writer drives. The drives work perfectly fine for importing and burning to using Real Player and Windows Media Player. I tried the repair function in the control panel for iTunes and also updated the firmware and driver of the cd/dvd roms and still nothing.
Does anyone else have any other ideas? I ran the diagnostic and here is what turned up:

Why Apple iTunes stores does not open ?
I am now located in India. Of late, Apple iTunes store is not opening. I tried rebooting, changing date settings etc., It did not work. Now, I am unable to even update some Apps. What do I do?
If iTunes will not launch - and I assume that is what you mean by "will not open" - try quitting the app completely and restart the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
You said that you are in India now which I also assume means that you were using the iTunes Store in another country ... Is that correct? You will have to change the store to whatever store you bought the apps in if you want to update the apps. If iTunes will not open, the you can't change the store right now anyway.
Can you clarify a bit?
