I have set up icloud for the first time on iphone 4 and its still says downloading after 12 hours. Is this right?

I think you may not using the right technical terms. When backing up to icloud, there is no way you'd get a message saying things will be wiped. This message may be displayed when you are performing a RESTORE from a backup and then trying to cancel it.
If you are doing a restore, then you can reboot and restore again.

I've lost a load of notes, but dont know why or how to get them back. I cant find the folder that is in my Yahoo account that people have suggested might be the location for the messages. I recently signed into iCloud for the first time.

It should keep asking for the password, because it's trying to check for purchases... As soon as you login, it will see you have pending downloads and create the downloads section on the left below Purchases under the Store section. Then it will start the music downloads there, as they will be listed one below the other.
You could just try to check your account balance or view your account and that will trigger a password request too. You can just click on that and say that now iTunes keeps asking for the password and ask him to help you with that. Trick would be to interrupt him so that he carries on with another task after, so he doesn't notice the download. Or you carry on with email or browsing which you were "busy" with when iTunes interrupted you for the password (stupid iTunes)

When I set up email for the first time, I had to enter a 4 digit pin. Since then, every time I switch my phone on, I have to enter this pin. How do I remove or bypass the pin so that I can switch on the Iphone without having to first enter a pin?

Go to Settings>General>Passcode Lock>tap Turn Passcode Lock Off, enter your "pin".
Edit: Are you saying you are getting a prompt for your email pin, or are you talking about the passcode lock that appears when you turn the phone on?

How do I sign in to my iTunes for the first time? Everytime I try it says I have not used iTunes before, and to review my account information.

It sounds like you are trying to create a new icloud account, not just logging into an existing account. When you type in your Apple ID and get that error, it's because you are trying to create an account using the same ID that is already being used in another account.
Go to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen. If you are logged in, press the Delete button, then try logging in with the existing ID.
As for pics, the most secure way is to connect ipod to PC with USB and look at the Photos tab for your device in iTunes. Using Photo Stream is another way, but it doesn't always work, depending on conditions.

Downloaded the latest update for iphone 4S and connected to icloud for the first time... Now, my contacts are gone!

I just downloaded the latest update for iphone 4S and connected to icloud for the first time. I now do not have any contacts on my phone... How do I get my contacts back??

I have had a similar problem, except all of my text messages are gone too! My contacts have slowly started to come back, but it appears that my most recently added contacts are gone, and my messages are also gone still.

I have just installed iTunes for the first time. When I run the application I get a "iTunes not working" message. Operating system Vista (32 bit). I have tried reinstalling with all firewalls off, but still no success. Have other people had this problem?

I don't think so. THe only thing you need internet for is to download the free VoiceOver feature, and that's optional.

How do I set up voicemail for the first time?

I feel like i am losing my mind. I CANNOT find simple instructions (even in the manual) on how to set up my husband's voicemail on the BB 8800. There are all kinds of questions and answers about voicemail, but I just need to know how to set it up for the first time. The message you get when you call the phone is "This user has not yet set up voicemail" (or something to that effect).
PLEASE HELP!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This is simple in deed! Go to Call Log -> click Menu and select Options -> Voice Mail. Now in the Access Number put your carriers Voice Mail Box number. Some carrier requires access password which you can also put in the.
Let know if this helps.

I have windows and I have synced my ipad for the first time. I am at step 6 of 6 where it downloading Safari safe browsing data. It has been at this step for over an hour. Is that normal or should I stop it and start over?

I have windows and I have synced my ipad for the first time. I'm at step 6 of 6 Downloading Safari safe browsing data. I have been here at this step going on 2 hours. Is this normal or is something wrong.

Lyrics aren't supported in the Music app on iOS 5 on the iPad. These are user-to-user forums, they are not monitored by Apple (there are too many forums/threads/messages for that to happen). If you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

My Iphone 4 just updated to the iOS6. I've connected it to my computer for the first time since then, and wanted to back up my photos in iPhoto. However, although Iphoto recognized my phone, it shows no photos to upload or backup. ??

My Iphone 4 just updated to the iOS6. I've connected it to my computer for the first time since then, and wanted to back up my photos in iPhoto. However, although Iphoto recognized my phone, it shows no photos to upload or backup. It lists my phone in the "devices" category on the left bar, but no longer shows any of my photos.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

I've reread your question several times and am not sure I understand it.
Are you trying to basically start over, as if you just took your iPhone out of the box? If so, do:
Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings

After syncing with icloud for the first time, all my contacts disappeared

Recently for the first time I signed up for Icloud and tried to sync contacts with it, but after this procedure all my contacts disappeared from my iphone, i treid searching online for the solution but couldnt get back my contacts, when I logged in to icloud.com, even contacts list was empty. Any help regarding this will be appreciated.

I have had a similar problem, except all of my text messages are gone too! My contacts have slowly started to come back, but it appears that my most recently added contacts are gone, and my messages are also gone still.

I synced my phone with iCloud for the first time and it put ALL of my husband's contacts on my phone. How to I take contacts off my iphone and reinstall only mine?

I have archived my contacts on my computer and can reinstall only those, but I can't figure out how to wipe all of his contacts off my iphone.

You don't.
You synced your iPhone with iTunes for the first time after how long?
And this didn't happen by syncing only. This means you transferred the backup for another iPhone or you restored the iPhone with iTunes. It is not possible for everything to be lost by syncing alone. All iTunes content on your iPhone can be lost but not any photos in the Camera Roll and the same for contacts unless you synced contacts with an empty address book application on your computer.

I connected my iphone for the first time to itunes and lost everything. How can I recover my data?

I connected my iphone for the first time to my itunes. It didnt have any backup or anything saved on icloud. As soon as i plugged it in, on itunes it asked if I wanted to restore, or backup, my ipod to my iphone or something (I dont remember) and I clicked yes. I thought that it was syncing music, and apps that i had on my ipod but instead it made my iPhone 4s into a copy of my ipod touch from the last time i synced my ipod (august 2012) now i have lost all of my contacts, pictures, messages, calls, emails and everything else I had on my iphone... is there any way that I can recover anything and get it how it used to be before all of this happened? i did not save anything on the computer or on itunes backup...

Sorry saker, but if you have not backed up your data anywhere, and you told the computer, in essence to clear the data and restore it with your iPod data, then you are pretty much out of luck....

Setting up HTTP for the first time...

Hey All,
My site can be viewed from inside our district. When I get home I just get errors when going to the site.
I know I'm close, just can't seem to find the right settings.

Thanks!

As a very general rule of IP networking, one IP address is assigned to one IP host only. (In more involved configurations, the IP address can potentially float within certain multi-host configurations, with one host "hot" at any moment, but the other hosts are intended to be replicates. And that's not the case here.)
There are technically ways to get where you want, where some software or some device sniffs the http headers. This can be an Apache reverse-proxy. Which also means that you have a primary web server and a secondary, and if the primary (the reverse proxy) is down the secondary is also down. Or you can use a web proxy appliance devices. These approaches can and do work, but they require either expense (for the http appliance) or configuration and software complexity. (My general preference is to keep it simple, and only bring out the power tools and the IP and Apache arcana when I really need to.) I'd tend to recommend against both the Apache reverse proxy or spending money on the appliance.
Given what I'm reading in this thread, I'd suggest using two static addresses, two sets of port-forwards, and use two hosts and two web servers. Two DNS entries. www.example.com and myhappyplace.example.com can be set up in DNS, for instance, for each of the two parallel hosts. It's simple, and it works, and it's easy to manage and easy to explain.
Or better, should you need two domains that appear separate, I'd suggest the use one public static IP address and one port forward and one host and one web server, and multiple virtual domains. Two virtual domains means two sets of web directories, and security access controls can be set up for two different groups of web authors (via ACLs, for instance). On the same host.
With more IP hosts and more web servers, you're opening up the crack in the firewall wider. More hosts is more exposure and more maintenance and more upkeep. No DMZ can be more exposure, should your hosts be breached. Should one or both of your hosts become "moderately compromised", your district can end up blacklisted in the spam databases, which means your district is tossed off the Internet for email. (There have been folks here in the discussions over the past month or two that have had weaknesses in their web servers exploited for spamming. Given the variety of web servers I see listed in my Apache logs, they're very far from alone in being compromised.) Were a server breach to arise, even your legitimate outbound mail for your district could get dropped by the recipients, should your domain end up compromised and found to be launching spam runs. (qv: various "Help, I've been hacked" threads here.)
Mistakes here will get the district and the district superintendent's attention Right Fast. Most admin folks are attached to their email, and can get cranky -- mail withdrawal syndrome? -- when their domain gets blacklisted.
