The phone was previously owned. It still is locked to the Apple ID of the previous owner. This is Apple's Activation Lock antitheft feature. If you cannot contact the previous owner the phone is now an iBrick. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818

Are you being asked for an Apple ID that isn't your own? Or are you having some other issue?

HT1386 I get on iTunes and sync all my music on to my iPhone. I then get on my iPhone and there isn't any music on my phone. I have updated my phone and iTunes on my computer but I can seem to put my music on my iPhone. Why?

I get on iTunes and sync all my music on to my iPhone. I then get on my phone and there isn't any music on there. I have updated both my computer and phone but I cant seem to get my music on to my iPhone. Why?

Here are some things to double-check. The first two are optional:
On the summary tab of your iTunes sync settings check "Sync only checked songs and videos"
In your music library check all the songs you want to sync to your phone
Make sure there are no exclamation points next to any of the songs you want to sync to your phone
Be sure to authorize your computer for all Apple IDs used for any purchased music you want to sync to your phone (in Store>Authorize This Computer)
Check "Sync Music" on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings

Is there any way to save my data after i have updated my phone and backed it up first

Is there any way to retrive or save my data after updating my phone and its locked, asking to restore to original settings in itunes.

If there is a passcode on your iPhone, which you don't know, there is no way around it. You'll have to restore factory settings. The passport is meant to protect sensitive data, and that is, what it does.

I uploaded all my apps and now it tells me that i dont have enough space and i cant use any of my apps please help me what should i do

please help me i uplaoded all my apps and now it tell me that i dont have enough space and i cant use any of my apps please help me.

Is the message saying:
Not enough storage
Not enough/low memory?
For the former delete some items from the iPod.
For the latter.double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory.

My daughters Ipod touch 2nd generation has been freezing today. We have updated, restored etc and will not play any music as in no sound coming from it. It is almost fully charged and played ok 2 days ago. Any suggestions?

My Ipod touch 2nd generation has been freezing today. We have updated, restored etc and now it will not play any music - as in no sound coming from it. It looks as if it is playing, but no sound comes out. It played ok 2 days ago. Any suggestions?

So, here is an update to my original question, in case anyone else has this issue. I spoke with a senior adviser at apple, who had me use the "devmgmt.msc" command in the search line of Windows 7; after expanding the USB controllers menu, she had me uninstall/delete the "apple mobile device driver" and then open "control panel" and "uninstall programs." Once the menu of programs was open, she had me highlight the program "apple mobile device controller", then repair it, and restart the computer. This fixed the issue and the iPod synced.
However, just one day ago, when I plugged in both the iPod, then the iPad (not at the same time), I get the message that "this library has already been synced to another iPod/iPad or other IOS device." It then asked if I wanted to set up as a new device or from restore of previous. That is wher I am right now; I am trying to get the same apple adviser again to discuss the case number. More to follow.

vishal.

firstly thanks for quick reply.
sorry sir,
i am confused in last line you wrote,
" This will erase the phone but you will be given an option at the end to restore to an existing backup, if you have one."
i did not understand last sentence - if i have one? you mean to say if i have data or not in my iphone?
i have many pictures, messages, contacts which are very much important.
so will it be all restore and will be backup again in my iphone if i restore?
i am extremely sorry to interrupt you again.
waiting for your quick reply
thanks and regards,
vishal

Re: while updating to ios 6.1.2 my iphone got lock showing connect to itunes, what i have to do so not loose my all data

sir this reply i received from you -
" You're welcome. Once you phone is in recovery mode, as is is now, you no longer have the option to back it up. Your only now is to restore it. Restoring the phone will erase it, then give you the option at the end to set it up as a new iPhone or restore it to an existing iTunes or iCloud backup, if one exists. If you don't have an existing backup, I'm afraid that unfortunately your data will be lost."
My answer -
sir i have icloud account also, and i login in my icloud account on my laptop in icloud.com and i checked there contacts which i had in my iphone that all are available in icloud website in my account.
that means i have backup right? but how i can check my other data , means messages and photos?
please help me to how i can get backup through icloud after restoring my iphone? i will be very glad and helpful by you if you can send me the easy process to take back up from icloud
please reply soon
thanks and regards,
vishal.

Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

How do you get the IPAD2 to charge? We have tried both ways and it never goes any higher than the percentage it is? We have plugged it into our computer and into an electrical outlet but does not charge. We got it brand new so it should work.

We are having trouble getting our new IPAD2 to charge. We have hooked it up to our computer and no charge, we have used the outlet and still no charge. When we first connect it to an outlet it shows the battery but it immediately goes off and it is still at the same percentage hours later.
Do you have any suggestions as to what we need to do to get it charged?
thanks
Connie

Try resetting your iPad by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
Then try to charge.
It should charge from the outlet but may not from a USB. Try a different cable or adapter. If you don't have one, take it all in to Apple... the adapter may be defective. You have a 1 year waranty.

HT5625 i then bought it from.... i later updated the phone and i cant seem to access the apple id or password.... i need help immediately...

in this sense, i dont know who the original owner is and so does my friend who sold it to me
we do not know how to contact the owner to access the id and password....
the ipad has been blocked with an id thati cant seem to access.... i need great help here

If the iPad is locked to the previous owner's account then you will need to contact him/her to remove the iPad from their account - he/she is the only person that can do it. If you can't contact the previous owner then you won't be able to use the iPad
