I no longer have sound for either my audio books or my music on itunes. I've tried everything--restarting, updating, re-installing audible app, and restoring the iphone to its factory settings--nothing helps. How do I get the sound back?
How do I get the sound back on my iPhone 4? I've tried all the fixes such as restarting iPhone, reinstalling the audible app, and finally yesterday, I restored the phone to its factory settings. I still get no sound from music on iTunes or from my audible books. The phone still rings (I have sound for that) and the voice control speaks to me, and when I'm typing, the automatic text voice speaks so I can hear it but nothing else works.
Since it has always been very basic to backup your computer and all it's data, Apple provides no way for you to transfer music from your iPhone back to your computer. As you know, you can re-download all iTunes purchases, but music that you ripped yourself you'll have to just re-rip again.
You can try and find 3rd party applications that might help you. I'm sure you'll pay, however.
Let this be a very important lesson learned.
Best.

Restore from your Backup. -
I recently backed up my iphone to itunes, when after backing up a message showed that I needed to update my iphone. I clicked ok, and after updating, it said I had to restore my phone to its factory settings. I cannot find where it backed up all of my pictures from my phone.
If you backed up the device, all the data is in the backup. Restore the backup.
A better question is why would an intelligent person not copy the pictures from the device to the computer regularly, especially before attempting an update, as the device is designed to be used? -
for some reason , when i restore my iphone 4s to factory settings my headphones work when listening to music or youtube videos but when i backup my information onto it , it only comes out of one ear bud and i just got a new one from the apple store. my old iphone 4s audio jack was messed up but i just got a new one with my warranty , can anyone help me please.
It doesn't matter what it is in your backup that's causing the problem because you can not selectively restore things from your backup. It's all or nothing.
Set you phone up as a new device and start over. -

After restoring my iphone 4 to factory settings, then restoring from a recent backup, my phone will reboot but keeps coming back to the "new setup or restore from backup screen". How can I by-pass this screen to go directly to the sync apps/music screen?
Well, it's certainly behaving as though the phone that was backed up was synced to a different iTunes library.
I'm going to throw one more thing out there... Yes, you backed it up to this computer... Was the phone previously set up to sync with this computer? Or was it syncing with a different computer and you just backed it up to this one?
You may have to end up setting it up as a new device and rebuilding the phone by manually re-syncing your data, apps, music, etc. to the phone.
Trying to keep your library on a different drive can be tricky. If iTunes starts up and the library isn't available, it may end up generating a new library ID, meaning that you could easily find yourself in exactly the position you're in now...
I'm curious why there was a need to restore your phone to begin with... It may not have any bearing on this at all, but it could. -

i don't have access to a computer and so,without physically attaching my iPod touch to PC devices, can you manually restore an apple iPod touch, restrictions passcode online to iTunes and restore it to store purchased factory settings?
Sorry but no. The only way to restore an iPod to factory settings is through iTunes on a computer. You will need to get access to a computer somehow. If you can get to an Apple Store, they can probably help you.

My Iphone has "Activation Required" on my phone, how do I get my phone back working?
You are hosed....
You will need to go to Google to find the best way to get this off of your phone. If you have the beta software but you are not a developer, it means you are running a pirated copy of the iOS, and we can't help you here....
Sorry,

have an iphone4 and my husband merge his numbers with mine and i think it was deleted can you tell me how can he get his number back on his phone
Do you possibly mean the contacts have been merged?
If so, where are each of you syncing contacts? A supported application on the computer? iCloud or another cloud service? An Exchange server?
WIthout details, it's difficult to offer specific resolutions. -
My iphone5 itunes playlist seems to have a mind of it's own, after selecting a song to play it will randomly flash through songs on my playlist without stopping. I've rebooting, and restored my iphone with no results. does anyone know how to stop this from happening? also I am having trouble syncing songs from my library on my computer to my iphone. the songs so up on my playlist on the computer, but will not synch over to my iphone5. Thank you.
Hi TakesTwo2Tango,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you should definitely be seeing a plus sign after tapping Edit, so I would try a couple relatively easy things (closing the Music app, resetting the iPhone):
iOS: Force an app to close

iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430

My audio books are not showing up in purchase history, but everything else is okay... is anyone having the same problem? I have already authorised my new computer and I am currently downloading my purchased music and videos however the books (audiobooks) are not showing for download.
Hope someone can help!"My audio books are not showing up in purchase history,"
That is correct. You cannot redownload audiobooks.
" is anyone having the same problem?"
Everyone and it is not a problem. Audiobooks simply are not available for redownload. -

This will bring it back to factory. From there you can go through the setup process to either restore from a backup or set up as a new device. -
Help,
Itunes will not let me restore iphone 4 to factory settings. I have an iphone 5 now and just looking to reset. Saying that it cannot verify the reset with apple. Any help on how to reset the phone and bypass this message. THanksReset iPhone, Reboot Computer.
This happens if
iPhone was hacked and iOS modified. And/or
Computer was used for hacking this or any other iDevice.
Check Hosts file, if it has any entry gs.apple.com. Put # in front of the entry. Reboot and try Restore.
Restore on another computer which has clean Hosts file.
