Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPhone shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

Firefox is not open, will not open, but when I try to update or uninstall it says I need to close Firefox first. I have exhausted the suggestions on the support page. I have no choice but to use a different browser.

Firefox is not open, will not open, but when I try to update or uninstall it says I need to close Firefox first. This is a common problem, as I have seen many posts with the same problem. I don't know what else I can say about it, it is pretty straightforward.

Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

Just got new ipohone 4s and used my wife's appleid to sync some apps. i now have my own appleid. i have logged in on my iphone but when i choose to update apps my wife's appleid is still there.

just got new ipohone 4s and used my wife's appleid to sync some apps. i now have my own appleid. i have logged in on my iphone but when i choose to update apps my wife's appleid is still there.

This is happening because there must be one or more apps on your phone that were purchased using your wife's Apple ID. Apps and their updates are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them, regardless of the ID you are currently using in Settings>Store. The only way to stop the prompt for your wife's ID would be to delete these apps from your phone.

I have the version of itunes the ios 7 update requires but every time i try to update my phone it says i need the itunes version 11.0.5 but i already have it?

You need iTunes 11.1 which is not available for download in google chrome or other browsers. The only browser it has worked for with me is Safari. Hope this helps!

HT1311 I have done all of the above but when I try to update my Apps it still says that my ID is not valid for the US store and I must switch to the UK? My settings already say I am with the UK? What do I do?

ok well like lllaass said, most apps require 4.3 or later iOS software. chances are since the apps worked before, the apps themselves got updated and will no longer work with your software version.

I upgraded my iphone 5 to IOS 7 and it will not recognise my previously OK bt home hub connection. If I go to an allternative, BT WiFI it connects but will not allow me to access anything on the web or any applications needing web access. Any way round this or can I revert back to IOS 6?

Is there any way to create a time machine backup to an external hard drive with content already on it? I have a hard drive that i have used for pictures but when i try to run a backup it says i need to start from a blank drive. Can i get around it?

It would be much better if you had separate drives for the pictures and Time Machine backups.....but, if you want to use the same drive for both purposes, temporarily move the folder with the pictures to another location for safe storage.
Run the Time Machine backup on the hard drive and verify that everything is working correctly. Time Machine will format the disk for you in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as part of the backup process.
Then move the folder with the pictures back to the hard drive with the Time Machine backups.
When you have tested to make sure that everything is working again, then and only then should you delete the folder with pictures from the temporary storage area.
Again....it would be much better to keep Time Machine backups on a drive just for that purpose, and other data on another drive for that purpose. This is clearly one of those times when the fact that you can do something does not mean to imply that you should do it.

I am the administrator of my MacBook Pro, which I share with my kids. One of them forgot his password, so as the admin I changed it for his account, but when I try to see his account, it says I need to provide the keychain password. How can i get it? I have no idea how to sort this out...

First, make sure caps lock is not on.
You must back up all data before continuing, unless you've already done so. If you need to back up but can't log in, ask for instructions.
If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
Otherwise*, boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window opens.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.
You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
*Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead the instructions on this page:
If you forget the password and FileVault is on

My aplle store id is disable! iremember the correct id and passord but is not working, i can acess my account but if i try to buy an application ,its says my account is disable

my apple store id is disable! iremember the correct id and passord but is not working, i can acess my account but if i try to buy an application ,its says my account is disable

It's real easy to create a new one and, in fact, it's too easy. I say that because multiple IDs are a PIA. The problem is that anything obtained from the iTunes Store is PERMANENTLY associated with the ID that was used to obtain the item(s). iTunes items can not be transferred from one ID to another and IDs can not be merged.
The problem arises when you want to update an app. If you're doing it from iTunes on your computer, you must log out and back in to get to the correct ID. Then you update and log out/in again to get back to where you started. It's slightly easier if you update from the iPad/iPod device as there is no need to log out/in BUT you still need the correct password for the appropriate ID. Of course, with a disabled ID, the problem is much worse!
A replacement Apple ID makes sense ONLY if you wish to start out absolutely brand new with zero iTunes Store purchases.
If you're really butting your head aginst a wall and you're reasonably close to an Apple Store, my suggestion is that you make an appointment with the resident "Genius" and get his/her help.
One last thought... If your brother actually got a human on the phone to dispute the charges, go there and explain the problem. Of course, if Apple did not accept his explanation of what occurred, that could be the whole issue. Apple believes that money is owed on the account!

Every Time i go into itunes and try to update my ipod it says i need to connect to the internet. But my internet is just fine i am running on ios 4.3.5 old i know and as far as i know i have the latest version of itunes. Please help

Everytime i go into itunes and try to update my iPod Touch 4th gen running on iOS 4.3.5 its says i need to be connected to the internet please check it or something like that and as far as i know i have the latest version of itunes

What is the exact wording of the error message?
Maybe this:
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.

HT4847 I have bought extra iCloud storage, I have 23GB storage left but when I try to update FIFA 13 it says there isn't enough local storage!!! How do I use the iCloud storage?!?! Thank u

I Have bought extra iCloud storage, I have 23GB of storage left but when I try to update fifa13 it says there's isn't enough local storage?!?!

Thay's correct. Buying iCloud storage does not increase the local storage capacity of your iPad.
Your iPad will always have the 16, 32 or 64GB of storage you bought it with.
iCloud storage is space on Apple's iCloud servers - not on your device.
You'll need to clear some space on your iPad to make room for apps.

HT4859 I have back-up in I-Cloud on 2 phones that I no longer have, but when I try to delete those 2 it says do you want to delete and turn off back-up, does that mean just on that phone or my new phone also? Thanks

I have I-Cloud back up on 2 phones that I no longer have, when I go to delete its says do you want to delete and turn off back. Does that mean turn off back up on the phone I use now or just that phone that I no longer use? Thanks for any advice, Buckspc

Not a big issue : Just delete the old backups and if the backup option turns off o your current device, then just turn it on again.
