I need to restore my iPhone 5 but an update I already have appears.
I need to restore my iPhone 5 but when I click on restore, an update to iOS 6.1.4 appears and my phone is already at the latest iOS update. I have limited internet usage and trying to update to an update I already have installed will make me go over my usage as the update is almost 1000mb.
Go to a friend's house and use their wifi, which will not
be charged to your wireless usage. Or a coffee shop. Or
someplace else with publicly available wifi.

I need to download the latest itunes but it says i already have it installed?

Open the iTunes application, go to the upper left to About iTunes and see what version it says you are running.
Did you actually run an updater?
Use Spotlight to see if you have multiple copies of the iTunes Application on your computer. -
I need to restore my iphone but itunes can't connect to it because of my password which I can't input becasue it has no service and needs to be restored. what can I do to restore it? Is there a way to input the password?
You will need to put the iPhone into Recovery Mode to be able to restore it in iTunes.
To put your iPod/iPhone into recovery mode:
1. Make sure the iPod/iPhone is connected to a computer with iTunes installed on it.
2. Hold down the sleep/wake button(top button) and the home button at the same time until the iPod/iPhone screen goes black then shows the apple logo( usually 10-15 seconds).
3. Once the apple logo appears on the screen, let go of the sleep/wake button and keep holding the home button.
4. The ipod/iphone screen should show an itunes logo and usb cable if you were successful. A dialog box will appear in iTunes that states an iPod/iPhone in recovery mode has been detected if you are successful.
5. Click ok, then click the Restore button
After that you should be up and running in no time!
I hope that this is helpful. -
I need to restore my iphone 4 with just ios 5, but it only lets me restore it with the latest version which is ios 5.0.1. What can I do??
Restore it using the computer it normally syncs with, this should not require an iOS update.

Had to reinstall iTunes,backed up iPhone5 before the reinstall and need to restore the iPhone backup that is on the computer,Windows8, but it is not an option in the new iTunes restore menu. How do I map or add the old backup to the new iTunes restore option?
Hi MrsMoosie,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If your iPad isn't responding or doesn't appear to be charging, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following articles helpful, in particular the following portion:
If you don't see the charging screen within an hour, or you see the connect to power screen, check your connector, USB cable, and power adapter. Make sure that everything is plugged in firmly, free of debris, and not damaged. You might want to try a different USB cable or power adapter.
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Hi, I recently received an email which I believed to be from my bank but it turns out it was from someone trying to hack my bank account. I accessed the email on my phone and I wanted to know if I need to restore my iphone back to default settings? I am a bit worried about losing everything on my phone if I do this but at the same time I don't want them to get any other information. Any ideas?
Did you log in with your bank account via the link included with this email?
If not, you have nothing to worry about.
Accessing or viewing the email alone can't provide your bank account info or the log in for your bank account. -
I forgot my passcode. and i need to restore my iphone 4 in order to reset the passcode. But I haven't backed up to icloud recently and REALLY cant lose my 1000 photos, contacts, ect. How to i backup before having to reset every thing?
You can't. If there was a way to get into the phone and backup data without a passcode, what would be the purpose of the passcode?
Either think harder, or prepare to lose all your data. -
I go to restore my iPhone 4 but...
I go to restore my iPhone 4 but it stops before it can do anything and says an error message. I looked up the error code on Apple but I dont understand what it means. Here is the message it says:
The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error has occured (1611).
I looked up 1611 and it says a bunch of random things that have nothing to do with my problem.
Please help I just got this today and it hasn't connected to iTunes at all yet. It said I had to restore it and that is where I am now.
Thanks in advance!You said: "I looked up 1611 and it says a bunch of random things that have nothing to do with my problem."
Why do you think that?
From that search, did you read: "
Error 1611
This error typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, this error may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service."
Did you follow the troubleshooting security software issues article?

I am trying to restore my iphone 4s, but encountered 3194 error code. Would appreciate any suggestions.
Possibly something is blocking Apple through iTunes from approving your iPhone Restore. Sometimes this is due to your computer Hosts File redirecting your request away from Apple. Seach your computer for Hosts, open this file with Word Processor program. If there is any reference to gs.apple.com this is the problem. This name and the number with it needs to be removed.

You rely on it but not enough to create and maintian a backup?
Have you set up iCloud? Set it up and then you can restore the iPhone and reload with iCloud.
-> http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
This will backup your iPhone as well as allow you to maintain contacts and calendar items (and others) in the cloud without a computer.
You can access then via a computer (www.icloud.com) and/or have them sync to a computer also.. -

I just completely restored my iphone 4 but when I connect it to my laptop to manage my iphone and everything on it and sync it like usual, it only goes back to the page saying "Welcome to your new iphone! Would you like to set up your iphone as a new i phone or restore your information from a previous backup?", then gives me those 2 options. Why won't it go to any other step/page for me to sync or manage everything I have on it?! I even tried restoring it again to see if anything changes, but it just wont get past asking me to restore it! How do I get to the main page for my device???
This commonly happens when a phone has been hacked to unlock the phone from a specific arrier or the phone has been jailbroken. If your phone is in either of these categories you will have to look elsewhere for assistance.

When iOS 6.0 updating my iPhone and connecting my iPhone to iTunes the only option I have, is to restore my iPhone. But ufortunately, I did not back up my iPhone before the updating. Is there any way I can avoid the restoring process?
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...

kindly reply and fix this for me
reply to my email,tqMost likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.)
