I have an Iphone 4s which I bought used, its unlocked and i put it on T-mobile. I see that the person who was using it before may have been Chinese, my computer is not recognizing it and itunes either. What can i do?

I want to Delete everything in it, but since it cannot be recognized by my computer and doesn't show on Itunes, I cannot do it. It has some a jailbreak which the last user put into it, might be Redsnow, and most of the app's and other stuff on the phone I cannot use it only says loading after I press it and then dissappears. The last user may have been Chinese, in which he put a chinese jailbreak and since i changed the language etc. of the iphone some things show up as little squares instead of normal english format. Please Help, Ive been looking all over google etc. and tried to fix it myself but nothing has worked.

I have the same problem with my 4S too, if the slider won't even let you slide, the it's most likely that the WiFi module inside the phone is broken
Take your phone to a Apple store and let them see if I'm correct
This is a common issue found only on 4S, Apple gave me a new 4S because of this

Hi there - I have an iPhone 4s which I bought from the apple store here in the UK. I am going to South Africa at the end of the year and I want to use a SA sim card - do I need it unlocked?

Hi,
As far as I know, all the iPhones bought online or in the Apple Store ar unlocked.
Only carriers (e.g. T-mobile, Vodafone, O2) are able to lock a phone, Apple won't do that (afaik).
This would mean that you shouldn't need to unlock your iPhone.
Kind regards,

My computer is not recognizing my IPod...how can I help this? I have an IPod Classic from 2006, I think.

I have connected my IPod via the USB port, and even my computer is not recognizing the IPod. How can I help this? I have just downloaded an audiobook and now I'd like to downloading it to my IPod.

Uninstall iTunes and all of its components by following this guide: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925, then reinstall iTunes. This will not trouch your iTunes library or data.

My computer is not recognizing my IPod Touch, therefore I can not sync.

My computer is not recognizing my Ipod touch. I have used all the help tips and tried different usb ports with no change. The only other thing I can think of is that since I lost my cable for the Ipod, I am using the cable for my Iphone. Would this cause the problem? The cables seem to be the exact same, but perhaps I am mistaken.

I put my ipod touch in DFU mode, but when I plug it into my computer the restore your ipod alert does not come up in itunes. What can/should I do?

I have been on the Apple Support page for several hours now and cannot find my exact circumstance and other suggestions have yet to help me. I purchased a locked ipod touch and when I plug it into my laptop itunes says "Itunes could not connect to ipod because it is locked with a passcode". The guy I bought it from told me the password but I failed to write it down and remember it and he has since moved so I can't find him. I have tried putting it in DFU mode and I can get it there, but then Itunes does not show the pop-up that everyone has said will come up with the alert about an ipod trying to restore itself so I cannot get it to do so. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
AM

When in DFU mode and connected to the computer iTunes does not say anything but iTunes will see the iPod and you can restore the iPod via iTunes. When in recovery mode and you connect, iTunes will say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

My computer is not recognizing my apple usb cable what do I need to do

my laptop is not recognizing my apple usb cable I'm using windows vista what should I do? my Ipod is disabled and I need to connect it to itunes so my iphone for and update.

Try connecting your Mac to the Time Capsule with an Ethernet cable to see if that lets AirPort Utility "see" the Time Capsule.

My itunes dissappeared and when i try to redownload it it say that the old version of bonjour cannot be replaced. have windows xp

my itunes dissapeared from my computer. when i tried to redownload i got an error message stated that the old version of Bonjour could not be replaced. i tried to manually remove it and it will not let me remove it.

Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
(If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

I upgraded my unlock iphone 4 to iso5 and its not recognizing my sim again lease what can i do to get it back to work

After upgrading my iphone4 to iso5 the phone didn't recognize my sim card to activate it please what can i do t get it back to work. its factory unlocked. don't know why its not recognizing the sim card after upgrade

Look under the Store menu in iTunes for the "Check for available downloads" command and run that. You may find the track there to be downloaded. If not, and you're in the US, just look under the Quick Links on the main iTunes Store page for the Purchased link. Click that and you should be able to find and re-download the track.
If it's not there, or you're not in the US, contact the iTunes Store Customer Service department from their contact page and explain the problem to them.
Regards.

My Macbook is not recognizing my password, why? What can I do to fix?

My Macbook Pro is a late 2011 Model running OS X. I can't give more specific specs right now as I can't log on to it.
Background:
I have been running into the issue for the past several months of a dim green light on the Charger. The possible issues I am guessing and have read with this are:
a.) Need a new battery b.) Need a new Charger c.) Need to charge the logic board.
c.) was inspired by this thread Why dose my MacBook not turn on and the charger light is very faint and the post by "rajjulian" (7 posts in)
Inspired by c.) I took my Macbook apart for the first time last night and pulled out the battery. According the post in c.) I can somehow "charge the motherboard". It was not obvious to me that I could actually do this. So I put everything back together.
I turned the computer back on and used the internet for a few minutes. I tried to download a file and came across the error "Not enough Disk Space" (or something like this :-/). After checking I still have plenty of room on the computer looking at the diagnostics (less than half the total storage is being used).
Upon searching the internet again I came across an article, which I can't find again because its on the downed computers history. Anyways, I ran a Disk Repair in Disk Utilities. I then upgraded my Software. Restarted the computer. And attempted to login. Which it did not allow me to do. It did not recognize my user password.
Latest: I can't even get into the login screen this afternoon. Its on the grey Apple screen with the loading circle thingy.
Moral: Only try fixing your computer if you know what you are doing.
Any help or ideas for how to fix this would be greatly appreciated. I have a lot of important files I need to get off of this thing :-/
Thanks ahead, Kyle

Go to the printer manufacture website and download the drivers for your printer model for OS X v10.9 Mavericks.
Then open System Preferences > Printers & Scanners > Print
Select your printer on the left then click - (minus)
Then click + (plus) to add the printer.

I am trying to update Mac software. but each time I download Compressor, I get a message that the update cannot be saved because it may have been corrupted. What should I do?

When I download software updates, I continually get the message "The update “Compressor 1.2.1” can’t be saved.The update could not be expanded and verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs." What do I need to do? This seems to be blocking other software updates.

By twice, I mean is there at least two copies of the same Time Machine data? Backing up several times a day with Time Machine does not yield two distinct separate restorable sources. Only one is made.

HT204053 I tried to download some music to my new computer, when I tried, it said that the apple id was used before on 5 other computers. The computers it was used don't work any more. What do I do ? I don't want to lose all the music I purchased.

I want to know how to remove other computers from i tunes that are no longer working.

Hello DJSmithLaner,
Thank you for the question. It sounds like you have authorized five computers, but you no longer have access to all five computers.
You can deauthorize all the computers associated with your Apple ID and then authorize the computers you still use.
Use these steps to deauthorize all computers associated with your Apple ID:
Deauthorize all computers
After you authorize two computers, you'll have the option to deauthorize all computers for your Apple ID. You can deauthorize all computers once a year. You should deauthorize all your computers in these cases:
If a computer doesn't work anymore
If you don't have one of your computers
If you used 5 authorizations and want to authorize a new computer
To deauthorize all your computers, follow these steps:
Click to open your account in iTunes (you may need to sign in with your Apple ID), or follow these steps:
Open iTunes and click iTunes Store.
Click Sign In and enter your Apple ID.
Click your Apple ID and select Account.
Click Deauthorize All.
The Deauthorize All button appears only if you have more than two authorized computers.
Once you have deauthorized all the computers, use these steps to authorize the computers you have access to:
To authorize a computer, follow these steps:
Open iTunes.
Choose Store > Authorize This Computer from the menu bar.
You may need to show the menu bar to see this option in Windows. In earlier versions of iTunes, you can access this option from the Advanced menu.
Enter your Apple ID and click Authorize.
You can find those steps and more information at the following link:
iTunes Store: Authorize or deauthorize your Mac or PC
