I'm trying to update my iphone4 and the update is going extremely slow, it has been sitting In the same spot for 37 minutes now. Is that something to be concerned about?

I don't understand or know if it is bad that my phone is updating so slowly. I would like some advice on how I can get this process done.

Hello there, Mirandabear.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some good steps to try for updating your iPhone:
Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4623
If it is taking too long for you over Wi-Fi, then syncing it by connecting to your computer might prove to be a faster option:
Update your device using iTunes
If you can’t update wirelessly, or if you want to update with iTunes, follow these steps:
If you use your device's Personal Hotspot for your computer's Internet connection, update your device wirelessly or connect your computer to another network.
Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer.
Plug in your device to your computer.
In iTunes, select your device.
In the Summary pane, click Check for Update.
Click Download and Update.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro

Try disabling all Security software on the computer, that can cause problems with the download and install.

Imported album to itunes library but it will not sync to my ipod, tried with my husbands ipod and the same thing. What could be the problem?

imported an album to my itunes library, but it won't sync with my ipod classic. I tried it with my husbands ipod also and the same problem. What could be the problem?

Thank you all for your replies. Here is what i ended up doing. I cannot afford any 3rd party software so i went to itunes and manually entered all my playlists. As I had indicated my purchased music was on my new computer just not the playlists and I could not sync my ipod. After I rebuilt all my playlists I tried to restore my ipod to factory defaults/new. All of the steps called for in apple support and elsewhere were not available to me. I connected my ipod, went to my computer, right clicked my ipod, and formatted. That wiped my ipod so when I connected to itunes it then gave me a restore option. I did the restore and all is good in the empire again. I can now buy new music and sync my ipod so I am a happy camper.
Thanks to all.

I bought 2 songs from itunes and one plays for 43 seconds and stops and the other places for 1 minutes and 40 seconds and stops

I bought the song "You" by Chris Young and the song "Yesterday" by the Beatles and they played fine for a period of time. However one day about 4 months ago, when I would play either song, the song would play normal for an amount of time ( "You" for 1 minute and 42 seconds and "Yesterday" for 29 seconds) and then the song would stop playing on my iPod touch 3rd gen. When I played the songs on iTunes, it would just go to the next song. I contacted Apple support through email, and they responded promptly with a reponse and a solution! The lady helping me accessed my account and made it so that the song "redownload" I guess because thats what happened when I signed on to iTunes and the two songs were loading. Well I think I heard the songs once or twice and now they are doing it again! The songs stops at those same times and will not play. What is the solution?

- Try a reset. it cures many ill and nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
- Does it play in iTunes on the computer?
- Delete the song and redownload it by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- Ask iTunes for a redownload.

HT1766 I did a restore and now my pictures are taking forever to download. Its been stuck on the same number for 2 days now. What should I do?

I had problems with my internet connection and I had called sprint. I was told I had to erase all contacts and settings. I backed it up on iTunes now when I went to restore, first I didnt get half of my apps back (had to go re-download them) and now It shows downloading 43 of 816 photos whenever I go to camera roll. Its been on the numer 43 for 2 days now ?? What should I do or is there anything I can do!

I would let it finish if it's proceeding. Then if they still aren't there, try restoring from backup again (by right-clicking on the name of your phone on the left panel of iTunes and selecting Restore from Backup, then choosing your most recent backup to restore from). Suggest you go to iTunes preferences and on the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically". This will prevent iTunes from automatically syncing when you connect your phone and overwriting the backup you are trying to restore to.

I've uploaded some music from my pc to my iPhone and updateed a few stuff aswell but my brother uses the same pc to do the same thing for his iPhone now when I go to App Store his I'd shows up what can I do

My iPhone 4 keeps showing my brothers apple ID we both use the same pc for iTunes now his apps are on my phone and I've tried everything can anyone help me?

Plug in your iPhone, select it in iTunes, deselect those apps and sync it.

The same SSID used at 3 sites and the same vlan for client IP assignment?

we are deploying 5508 controller and LW APs for wireless IP phone 7925G
Controller is installed at site A and there are APs and wireless phones at site B and C as well.
1. can I use the same SSID for all three sites for wireless phones? or have to use 3 distinct SSIDs?
2. If I can use the same SSID, can I associate one subnet e.g 10.10.131.0/24 for wireless IP phones at 3 sites? (our Cisco UCM is fine with this)
3. if I have use 3 distinct SSIDs, do I have to assign three subnets for IP phones at three sites?
thanks for the help!
Eric

yes.. this is done by HREAP mode.. the below link will help you out!!
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_configuration_example09186a00807cc3b8.shtml
That is, by default the WLAN will get pushed to all APs.. so if you have a single wlan then this will broadcast the SSID and the remotre site clients will connect to it..
Lemme know if this answered your question!!

If that still doesn't work then see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf
(caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder)
Note:
Deleting the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults.
You can rename ''localstore.rdf'' to '''localstore.rdf.sav''' to test if that solves it.
Then you can restore the customization by copying ''localstore.rdf.sav'' to ''localstore.rdf'' if it didn't work.

After last icloud backup, unrequested by me public holidays in the UK have been marked on the calendar and I can't find how to delete this. Also, I have been trying to delete a birthday from the same calendar for months and it keeps reappearing.

iPad 2 with iOS 7.01 After the last backup to Icloud, unrequested by me, my calendar has been filled with public holidays of the UK which there doesn't seem to be any way of deleting. Also, I have been trying to delete a birthday from the calendar for months, this time using all variations of 'delete' and it keeps popping up again!

Are you also restoring from your backup? That sounds like what is happening or someone else has your Apple ID.
A backup to iCloud would have no way to add UK holidays to your calendar. Open Calendar, tap on Calendars at the bottom middle of the page and untick the ones you don't want.

Did you burn the DVD from ISO?
Did Windows get fully installed & updated? added Apple Boot Camp after?
If you still don't have 10.6, you won't have Boot Camp 3.x drivers (and later) for Windows 7.
How large a partition did you create?
How long if at all was it working normally?
The last update, install or change made was.....?

TS3212 It starts to load just fine, but at about 26-32% done it just stops with no information or errors, I have tried to download several times, and the same thing happens?

Is there a way to get your playlists if you no longer have a PC/computer. But now have an iPhone, I can not reload iTunes to my PC and purchashed an iPhone to get my songs but was only able to retrive the songs I had purchased not all the songs in the library.

Try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?
If you can't get a working installer via the standard download links, try the following download links instead:
iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe
iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe

I can't erase my authorization in order to reauthorize it. It says "Unable to erase authorization. Please try in some time." However, I have tried on various different days and the same thing appears.

I am not able to erase my authorization in order to reauthorize it. I follow the steps in the dialog box and it says unable to erase authorization. I've tried uninstalling the pplication and reinstalling it but that doesn't work.

I have windows 7 so the other answers to this don't work for me.

I just tried to install Firefox 12 and the install will not proceed because it thinks that the old Firefox browser is open when it is not.

I verified with Task Manager that Firefox is not running. How do I get past this point and get Firefox 12 to install. I am running Windows 7 Premium on an HP Quadcore with 8gb. of main memory, lots of video memory and 1tb of disk storage.

Sounds like Firefox is "hanging at exit". That problem is frequently caused by an Extension or a Plugin. Read all of the following articles.<br /><br />
NOTE: Establish a habit of exiting/closing Firefox with Firefox button > Exit or File > Exit to allow an orderly shutdown of Firefox and closing of all of the files that Firefox has open.

HT1338 my mac pro has 4 years already and the battery lasts for 10 minutes top. why should i do? get a new battery or what?

please help me what should i do

Assuming you mean a Macbook Pro laptop and not the Mac Pro tower, then batteries wear out. 4 years is a long time for a battery to be in constant use. In general I've ended up replacing my laptop batteries about once ever 2 years, and at that time I'm often down to 30 to 45 minutes of battery life.
So if you are not ready to get a new Mac, by all means get a new battery.

I'm trying to update my iphone4 and the update is going extremely slow, it has been sitting In the same spot for 37 minutes now. Is that something to be concerned about?
