  • My itunes won't start up when I plug my phone in. I followed a solution but when I got to opening my itunes helper it says"the application I tunes helperis not open anymore" and I'm stuck here. Any help out there?

    Hi yesy
    If you are sure you disabled your AV/antispy and you get the flash of a licence it sounds like you may have a malware infection. Look out for posts by b noir and get hold of ewido - its a free AV programme - google and you should find.
    BTW, you may be in Florida and I'm in the UK, but don't shout - you're just next door in cyberspace!:) I understand your frustration coz I've been in your place. There are some really helpful folks on this forum - seek, and you shall find!

  • After restoring from backup on iCloud, my photos have been "downloading" for 2 days with no progress at all.

    After restoring from backup on iCloud, my photos have been "downloading" for 2 days with no progress at all.  Everything else seems to by fine, however. I have all my apps, contacts, even my photostream back, but my camera roll has said "downloading 137 of 1,345" for two days.  I really don't want to have to start over as the whole process took almost 3 hours. Help?

    Someone mentioned that syncing with ITunes, making sure that photos are being synced - even with an empty folder, fixed the problem.  I tried it and it didn't work for me.  Anyone got any answers that don't include losing the photos or erasing and restoring from backup again?

  • My apps have been downloading for 2 days now is this normal

    ive downloade some apps but they have been "waiting"for 3 days now is this normal ive tried to delete and reinstall also just taking forever

    Reboot your phone and try again. Also try downloading the apps with a faster internet connection. Make sure that your phone's internal hard drive has enough memory to install these apps. In the event that your phone has little memory space available could result in the problem you are having. Make sure you have enough space in your phone and downlaod 1 app at a time.

  • Unable to activate photoshop C3  as helpline is not answering,I have been ringing for two days..!

    I am having real problems contacting the adobe helpline to activate my software, I have been ringing for two days and its always engaged.. Unfortunately The motherboard on  my macbook pro failed ( and it was only just over two years old, so out of its warrenty)..
    Anyhow  I cannot therefore de-activate my photoshop software on my old computer, so therefore I am unable to activate on my new computer I just brought..
    It is so frustrating as i have all the discs infront of me, but I only have four days left now to use the software that I have paid for and own..
    Does anyone know of other phone numbers I could use, as the ones I have tried on this site are always engaged, I really can't afford to go out and purchase the software again.. Has anybody else come across this problem and how did you solve it..?
    In desperation

    Hi Wade,
    I thought when I received your email it was somebody directly from adobe trying to help me...! indeed it was not a wise thing to do. I have deleted the post..
    With the greatest respect I have tried calling quite a few numbers and at different times and if you have read other posts on this forum you will see that they have had similiar problems to me..
    Anyhow I have had a nice email from Tracey an adobe person and hopefully she will be able to help me out.
    Thanks again for your suggestion of an alternative number..

    Help!!!!
    New user to FCPx. I lost the timeline and footage I have been editing for 5 days. Can I go back 2 hours in FCPx to retrieve it or is it lost forever?

    What version are you using? Were you editing inside a project, or did you open a clip into the timeline?

    I have an iphone that is locked to orange and have been waiting over 50 days now for it to be unlocked and keep getting fobbed off with promises to sort it out. I dont know how many calls have been made and am getting really frustrated now. Does anyone know how apple are involved with the unlock as  im jst not getting any answers from orange and they just keep saying they dont know why its takng so long

    If it is Orange Uk then no surprises
    They locked it originally and it is their gift to unlock ....usually in their own time.

  • IPod Touch 3rd gen 32 GB stuck in recovery mode. iTunes won't restore. When I plug it into iTunes, it calls it an iPhone.

    My husband plugged his iPod Touch into the USB port on the computer and, once it charged some, iTunes didn't recognize it as his iPod (calling it an "iPhone" rather than "Ed's iPod"). It said that iTunes had detected an iPhone in recovery mode and that he had to restore it. When he clicked on 'restore' it said, "Software for this phone is not currently available. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes and try again." After a few days (after the battery was fully drained again), I plugged it into a wall charger and it began to charge. I was able to fully see everything still on the iPod and even to access his apps. I let it fully charge, but when I unplugged it, it went black again and now it will not do anything. Back to a black screen and if we plug it into the computer, the same cycle starts again with it being recognized as an iPhone needing to be restored, etc.
    UPDATE: So, I let the iPod fully drain again and then plugged it into the computer and iTunes. It saw it as an iPod again and said it was in recovery mode and I was able to tell it to restore it. It went through the entire process, and as the iPod was restarting, it again called it an iPhone in recovery mode. Now I can no longer see the apps and the homepage on the computer but rather it shows the Apple symbols to plug it into iTunes to set it up - but again, says it is in recovery mode but will not restore it.
    Someone please help!

    I searched the iPod Touch forum for "iphone in recovery mode" and it appears there are two possible solutions:
    - Place the iPod in DFU mode and then restore it>

    - Use this program to get it out of recovery mode:

  • I have app updates that have been downloading for 3 days? I just updated to IOS the day prior.

    I have app updates and the purchase of a new app downloading for at least 3 days.  I uploaded IOS 6 the day prior to trying to update these apps.  Help, please.

    Thank you very much for taking the time to reply -- I now can stop worrying about trying to learn how to delete the previously downloaded updates from the update screen.

  • Have been up for 2 days trying to have two versions of Firefox on the same machine because Princeton Review only supports 2.0 and my laptop upgraded me to 4.o can you please help?

    When I try to access the interactive sites on Princeton Review I politely receive this message:
    Your browser: Firefox 4.0 WinNT | JavaScript supported: Yes | screen size: 1366 X 768 | Flash Version Installed: 10.0 r42 | Supports AJAX:Yes | Click here to test connection speed

    IMO, you are better off installing - [http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20P.E.%20Legacy/Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20Portable%20Edition%202.0.0.20%20Repack/FirefoxPortableLegacy20_2.0.0.20_English.paf.exe/download Firefox Portable 2.0.0.20] - to your hard drive for the few web sites that are so out of date that they don't support newer versions of Firefox. That way you don't need to fool around with a separate Profile for 2.0.0.20, and there is less chance of a another version / Profile of Firefox getting "contaminated" by that old version or you losing private data if your get the Profiles switched.

  • HT1657 I have been charged for a rental movie and have not purchased it can someone else hack into my iTunes account?

    I have been invoiced for a movie that I haven't downloaded can you confirm when this was rented?

    These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here.
    Have you checked the purchase history on your acocunt via the Store > View My Account (Store > View My Apple ID on iTunes 11) drop-down menu option on your computer's iTunes ? If you didn't rent it, and nobody else has access to your account, then you can contact iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

    I have been waiting for two days for an app to install on my iPad. Seems like something is stuck as it just keeps displaying "installing".

    Did anyone ever suggest you reset your PRAM?
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
    Also might want to try resetting the SMC, although I
    doubt there's an issue there.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304123
    I'm getting tired of people who supposedly know what
    they're doing simply guessing that resinstalling the
    OS might solve the issue. It's like trying to dissect
    a frog with a sledge hammer, and wondering why you
    didn't learn anything about anatomy in the process.
    These sorts of things, although bizarre, should be
    (and probably are) fixable without major surgery.
    Thanks for the suggestion... but I think my first question would be why these parameters would need re-setting? This is a new machine... It has never been shut down hard. It is used at most 10 hours per week... mostly using Office 2004 for MAC. I need to figure this out as I will soon need it as a Cs2/CS3 - Aperture workhorse.
    I too agree that it is best not to use a sledge when a scalpel is needed... but as a novice to the MAC world I may have been misled by Apple support. I seems to have fixed the symptoms ( some) but appears NOT to have addressed the cause... which is what I am after.
    Would TechTool Pro detect a bad HD or RAM?
    Thanks....

  • With Windows 7 Home Premium, whenever I start iTunes, I get a message that colors have been reverted to Windows Basic because iTunes won't support my Windows Aero configuration.  Is there a fix for the incompatibility?

    With Windows 7 Home Premium, whenever I start iTunes, I get a message that colors have been reverted to Windows Basic because iTunes won't support my Windows Aero configuration.  Is there a fix for the incompatibility?  I don't mind the color changes, but I'm having an external speaker problem that could be related to the incompatibility (at random times--usually several hours after start-up, my external speakers--connected via my Samsung Central Station's wireless docking station and computer-installed dongle--shut off and won't play until I restart.  I've investigated other options, but iTunes may be the problem.)  Thanks.

    Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
    Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
    If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?
