Have you synced your iPhone with iTunes on this computer before? If not, nothing is selected automatically under the various tabs for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
Was this the first time your iPhone was connected to iTunes on any computer? If so, the first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes for the first time that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or eyeless device to the iPhone or set up the iPhone as a new iPhone. This is not automatic, it must be manually selected.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    I don't think it's possible if you are stuck in recovery mode but I may be wrong...
    Since your device qualifies for iOS 8(.1), that is the version that will be downloaded/restored to the iPad.
    I do know that you can restore your iPad (from backup & as new) and keep the same iOS version if you restore using the iPad itself under Settings/Reset/Erase All Content and Settings but since you can't access this because your stuck in recovery mode, the point is moot.
    Have you tried downloading the update in the middle of the night (2 am or so) where dropouts are much less likely to occur?
    It's always possible to take your device in to an Apple Store (make a Genius Bar reservation first) and do the iOS update there in the Apple Store.. I'm sure they will gladly help you out with it and not charge you a thing. The trouble with that would be if you don't have an Apple Store nearby.
    Sorry I couldn't be of any more help.

  • I have connected my new Macbook Air to my existing Samsung large external monitor with a VGA adaptor but I can't get the full mac desktop to display. No icons but then websites are coming up. Help!

    I have connected my new Macbook Air to my existing Samsung large external monitor with a VGA adaptor but I can't get the full mac desktop to display. No icons but then websites are coming up. Help!  Further info:  I am a complete newbie to Mac.  Had three macs prior to 2000 then four PCs.  Just come back and struggling a bit with the unfamiliarity. On my old PC laptop I could simply switch from the laptop screen to the large external monitor (and back)  with the F4 function key.  While I can get the background image from my MBA to display, that's it.  Until I noticed on the far left of the external monitor, the very edge of one of the web pages I was on.  So Idragged it over to display in the centre.  But that's all that's there.  And now I have gone out of those web pages but they are still displaying on the monitor.  There is some wierd disconnect.  I'm sure it is just a setting thing.  Will keep searching for answer but any advice welcome!

    Your dsplay is getting extended onto the external monitor. Chcnage the setting to duplicate it or only display on the external monitor and you should be fine,
    Let me know if this worked for you.

  • My iTunes says my iPod touch 3rd Gen is up to date with iOs 4.2.1, how do I get the new iOs 5?

    My iTunes says my iPod touch 3rd Gen is up to date with iOs 4.2.1, how do I get the new iOs 5?

    You must update your iTunes software to 10.5 first then you can upgrade to iOS 5.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    According to Apple the iPod touch 3rd gen can update to iOS 5.
    "iCloud requires iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2; a Mac computer with OS X Lion; or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 or an up-to-date browser is required for accessing email, contacts, and calendars). Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices."

    My ipod touch 4 music quality is much poorer with IOS 6 upgrade. How can I get IOS 5 music quality back?
    No available eq setting is acceptable.
    Right now, I feel like driving a nail through it.

    Me again. I cleaned out the headphone jack with a q-tip soaked with rubbing alcohol. Most of the q-tip fibre was removed to be able to insert it into the jack. After pushing and turning fairly vigorously for a half minute, I pulled it out and a large piece of pocket lint came out with it as well. The Ipod now sounds excellent.

  • I'm not able to download the App Store with a software update. How can I get the App Store on my Mac?

    I have some problems to get the App Store on my mac. Every time when I do a Software Update, there is no App Store to download.
    How can I get the App Store on my Mac?
    It's because I want to set OSX Lion on my MacbookPro.
    Thanks!

    As you have 10.5.8 you need to upgrade to at least 10.6.6 to get the App Store as this was the 1st version it came with.
    A workaround is to get a friend who has 10.6.6 or better to download Lion for you without installing it. You can create an App Store account on the friend's computer I think to do this. Copy the Lion installer from that computer to a USB stick or burn it to DVD and you should be able to install it on your own computer, I think. You might have to create an empty partition on your own computer first for Lion installation as I'm not sure that it will install over Leopard.

  • TS1702 Went to update apps on ipod touch IOS 4.2.1. I did a factory reset. Now I can't get most of my apps back because I can't download version 5.0. I paid for some of these apps.

    Went to update apps on ipod touch IOS 4.2.1.  I did a factory reset and now I can't get most of my apps back & can't download version 5.0 which I need to get back some of my apps. I paid for some of these. I've tried my backup and it didn't put them back on.

    If your iPod Touch is too old for iOS 5 or later... there is not much you can do.
    When/if you get a later model iDevice you will be able to Download Past Purchases using the Original ID that made those Purchases. (providing they are still supported by the Developer)

  • Icloud sync has deleted my contacts and replaced them with my husbands, can i get mine back??

    I have just updated my iphone, icloud has been installed and replace all of my contacts with my husbands, can i get them back??

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It sounds like you are turning off syncing (settings > iCloud) rather than back ups.
    Try turning them on again.

    Are you syncing your Mac Address Book contacts over the air with your iCloud account which is selected with your iCloud account settings on your Mac? You need to do that first followed by logging in with your iCloud account via webmail access using a browser to confirm your Mac Address Book contacts are available in your iCloud online address book.

    i accidentally deleted an album of photos. Can I get them back and if so, how. Tks

    did you import the album from your computer? If so just import it again.  If not and the photos were placed in an album and were on your camera rolll they might be in a backup (backup saves camera roll)  Restore from that backup and anything you created since the backup was made will be lost

  • I'm trying to get all of my information from my iPhone to my new iPad and I have both synced with I could but I am unable to get my apps/music/photos ect on my iPad

    I am having trouble getting my apps/photos/music from my iPhone to my iPad. I have both synced to my I cloud but I cannot get anything to appear on my iPad

    What exactly did you try? You have to restore the iPad from the phone backup and download the apps again if you are using iCloud. If you are using iTunes, the process is basically the same but you have to sync the apps back to the iPad.

  • I just got an ipad and took video of my daughter playing volleyball.  Now I can't get the video from the ipad to the computer.  I have a dell.  Help!

    I just got an ipad and took video of my daughter playing volleyball.  Now I can't download it onto my computer.  I have a Dell.  Please help!

    the DCIM folder is just a folder called DCIM . Just like a camera would create, so does the iPad. Both your videos and your photos are located inside that folder.
    In Windows Explorer: Computer\iPad's Name\Internal Storage\DCIM
    Instead of Rick's iPhone it will have your iPad's name. whatever it may be.
