I have the IPhone4 and I have tried to update to IOS but it says there is something wrong with the phone?

I keep trying to update but a little box pops up and says it wont allow me. Also before i try to update it says to transfer my apps on to Itunes, how can i do that!? Please help.

Syncing your phone should transfer everything where it needs to go.
What exactly is the error message you get?  You may need to restore the phone before updating.
First be sure you have synced and there is a backup.  To be sure there is a backup, you can right-click on the iPhone in the left navigation under Devices and select "Backup"
Second, click "Restore" and follow the prompts
Third, select the most recent backup from which to restore the phone.
Fourth, sync the phone.
Fifth, try updating again.
Good luck!

  • TS4036 My iPhone has just been replaced and I am trying to restore from iCloud but its saying no backups are compatible with the version of IOS 6.0.1. My back iOS are IOS 6.1. Can you update the phone first then restore?

    My iPhone has just been replaced and I am trying to restore from iCloud but its saying no backups are compatible with the version of IOS 6.0.1. My back iOS are IOS 6.1. Can you update the phone first then restore?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes, update first, Settings > General > Software Update.
    Then navigate to Settings > General > Reset > Erase all contents and settings on the device you want to restore.
    When this completes and the Set-Up Assistant starts, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose which backup to restore from.

  • Can's connect to itunes store.  I have had this problem for a while.  My computes says there is something wrong with the network, but the network is up and running fine.

    I want to buy music from the iTunes store, but when I try to connect it says that there is a network problem.  My network is connected and up and running fine.  I went throught the steps of my norton software (2008) like the system told me and I still can't connect the same message appears.  Can someone help me discover and fix this issue.  I do not want to take my computer to best buy and pay a bundle of money.

    I am having the same issue.  I cannot connect at all the the ITunes store.  I can do certain things on ITunes, but it is not working correctly.  I, too, have followed all troubleshooting instructions, but no success.  I can hook up my Ipod and Ipad 2.  it is able to download and update applications, but unable to backup on my computer.  I hope there are some answers soon.

    If your computer is running an OS X prior to Snow Leopard 10.6,
    the answer (if it is an Intel-based Mac; not old PowerPC model)
    would be to buy the retail Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD from Apple
    for about $20, and install it. Then update that to 10.6.8 by using
    the installed Snow Leopard online to get Combo Update v1.1 for
    Snow Leopard 10.6.8. After that is installed & updated, run the
    system's Software Update again, to see what else is available to
    that system.
    Later systems can then be looked into at Mac App Store, once
    the computer is running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    And if your computer is a Power PC (G4/G5, etc) and has no
    Core2Duo kind of CPU -- See "About this Mac" in apple menu
    to disclose the general info about your Mac. Also you can see
    even more by clicking on "More Info" when looking in there...
    If it isn't an Intel-based Mac, it can't run a system past 10.5.8.
    Hopefully this helps.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    Hi BobRz,
    As this is a new issue for me, I believe I had the incorrect approach, maybe you can help me. What I want to do is recover a few files in my desktop, and some information i had on the iCal application and the Mail application as well.As I do not want to do a full migration into this computer (which is not mine) I believe that starting the damaged MBP in Target mode should allow me to search and cop the files I need. But:
    1. Can I open the Ical and mail apps to look for the info I need while reading it as an external HD  ?
    2. Do the target machine (my friends) still need to be updated to ML o Mavs so that it recognizes my MBP as an external drive if starting it in Target mode ? (no migration assistant)
    Thanks.

    Take the SIM out and reseat it.  Was your phone jailbroken or unooficially unlocked?  If so then when you upgraded the phone locked again to the original carrier.  If that is the case you need a SIM from that carrier to use the phone or you could contact that carrier and have them unlock it for you

    There is something wrong with the volumes buttons in my macbook pro, every time i pressed the one who raises the volume, it leads me to the screen where (i do not no what its called) the background is black with the date and time and a calculator. However, when i lower it, my safari tab goes out of the screen. What do you guys think i should do? I'm getting very nervous.

    You may want to try using the information in this article to adjust the behavior of your function keys to see if that resolves the behavior:

  • There is something wrong with the forum

    There is something wrong with the forum. it is messed up.!
    I been a little bit observant this past few days, I observed alot of problems..
    here are a few, ( there are actually alot more, but I could not describe it. its just very weird.
    I thought someone hacked to my profile and used it to ask that one, but when I clicked on it, it was just one of the questions I have responded to.
    sometimes I can not post to threads, an error would come up, most especially if I reply to a reply,
    sometimes, when I Post images it would work the first time I post it, but when I search for it again, only the links are given, no images anymore.
    sometimes I get booted out randomly, in the middle of writing a reply
    sometimes the posts switches from threaded to flat , flat to threaded, and sometimes both.
    sometimes when I checked on the stuffs>discussion, the post is highlighted but there is no new response or like, and even there was, I can see which one is it, especially to the posts that had many reply already
    sometimes it still sends email to my gmail eventhough i have unsubscribe to the post already,
    sometimes get error 504, and some other numbers I forgot.
    sometimes during writing a response the blinking thing that indicates where are you writing goes missing or on the wrong place.
    OH come on..! I am trying to help, you don't want one?
    and don't blame it on ,my browser ( i checked and used IE9, FIREFOX, and even CHROME), or to my internet connection.( i got the best there is for home connections), or to my laptop ( it's a little bit old, but it still kicks butt holes) and tried it already with other pc/internet connection/and whatnot.
    I am still sometimes visiting my previous home (NOKIA FORUM) and I don't experience those, and we even have live chat over there,
    this forum needs a revamp. and how I wish this could be repaired via Sony Update Service, or PC Companion, but of course if it was possible I would have done it already.
    We try to help users, make the forum conducive for users trying to help users. \m/
    best of luck,,

  • How do I import my photos from my iPhone to iPhoto, when I press import I just get a message saying there is something wrong with one of my photos and disconnects my iPhone.

    How do I import my photos from my iPhone to iPhoto, when I press import I just get a message saying there is something wrong with one of my photos and disconnects my iPhone.

    I couldn't find Image Capture at my first try, butI will try again. Do you inow how I can find the corrupted photo on my iPhone? Im a bit lost..
    Sorry, I just noticed, I made a mistake. "Image Capture" is in the Applications folder, not Utilities. And it may have a different name on your Mac, if your system language is not English:  Look for the icon with the camera:
    When Image Capture can import from your iPhone, spilt the folder with the imported photos in several small subfolders and try to import them separately to iPhoto. This way, you can identify a subset of photos with the corrupted one.
    Then try to import from that small subset one by one, until you hit the culprit. And then delete that photo or video from the phone.

  • I have a Mid 2009 Macbook Pro 13 with no restore disk; it has OS 10.8.4 I believe there is something wrong with the OS due to I can not install flash player to view Youtube videos and the when we plug in a Bose headset the sound out will work sometimes

    I bough a used Macbook Pro mid 2009 that came with OS 10.8.9 it didn't have a backup restore disk with S/N W8******66D
    When trying to view some youtube videos; a window would pop up saying "it needs adobe flash player is required for video play back get the latest flash player" but after downloading the file and during installation would have errors and will not installed.....tried to reboot and install again.....but still the same.
    The othe thing I had noticed is when using a good Bose headset with mic the sound output would noticed the headset and then switch from headset to Internal speekers and headset.....thinking that there might be something wrong with the plug in port of the computer or the headset.....the headset works with no issues on my iPad so there must be something wrong with the computer.....tried to move the plugin around the port but no change....while the headset is plug in can hear a short clicking noise and the sound would get lost and back again......but with nothing plugin to the port there is no issue with the sound or mic.
    Thanks for your feed back......it looks like I have two different issues one is a software issue and the outher is a hardware issue

    The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
    Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
    However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
    Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
    I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.
