Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

    Hi RadarCat16,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I know it can be frustrating when you are waiting for content to download to your iPhone from the iTunes Store. There are a few steps I would recommend in this situation. Please read over and follow the steps in the attached article.
    iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
    If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
    For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
    Enter your account name and password if prompted.
    Tap the blue download arrow to resume.
    If you can't complete the download on your iOS device, you can download it in iTunes on your Mac or PC and then sync it to your iOS device. You can also transfer purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer.
    Have a great day,

  • I had the developer preview for IOS 6 on my phone, and just got a message telling me that my operating system is no longer active. How do I get my phone activated again?

    I had the developer preview for IOS 6 on my phone, and just got a message telling me that my operating system is no longer active. How do I get my phone activated again?
    I had the developer preview installed. Never had to update to the release version of the OS. Now, the preview has expired, and I cannot use my phone because my iTunes reads my OS as being current, but my iPhone cannot active. Any ideas on how to fix this issue?

    If I Google for Michael Superczynski, first match tells "Michael Superczynski's Profile : Apple Support Communities". It in fact does a lot of work there even if not paid.
    And yes we do not have disagreement about "official apple developers". Problem is that Apple screwed our devices because we are "official apple developers" and did effort to stop us getting proper help. I unbricked my ipad and iphone thanks to unofficial help. Thank you who wrote this unofficial help and "no thanks" for apple for ruining my access to my devices. My mistake was assuming that "update" button on my devices works. It did not because it always told "Your device has latest IOS6 installed" until it bricked yesterday.
    If Apple does not want to listen us, continue do delete post, blame us installing your software and yes we stop buying your devices and developing for them.

  • HT2534 I have followed these instructions and yet I get a message stating "not connected to the itunes store".

    How else can I set up an itunes account without using a credit card?  I saw a post somewhere that said we had to set it up with a credit card, buy a free app, then go into settings and edit the information removing the credit card.  Is this really the only way that will work? 

    Thanks!  I just got off the phone with apple support, and basically the new apple id account was set-up incorrectly.  So I had to access iTunes on my computer, enter a credit card into my account (because a none option isn't given).  Then I purchased a free app on my iPad.  After it installed, I had to go back to my computer and access my iTunes account again and edit the credit card information to the none option now given.  I was not able to do this throught the device itself.
    The second option you gave is the answer he also provided if I had not created the apple id in the first place.  I will be sure to share that info.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Unable to update devices, receiving error 3014 on iTunes, and device via wifi is stating "Not connected to the internet", when it has an active internet connection

    Hi,
    I have been encountering this issue and I have run out of ideas as to what would be causing this error. On numerous apple devices for our business I will receive an error 3014 when updating a device via iTunes, and this is after the software update downloads. When attempting to update the device over wifi it states that the device is not connected to the internet, when I ensured that the device has active internet connectivity.
    Our business uses a Juniper firewall, which I thought might have been the initial cause of the issue, however I have ensured that ports 80 and 443 have full traffic flow and nothing blocking it, and I've also exempted all *.apple.com websites that I could find listed online.
    I have also tried deleting the host files on the computer I am using to circumvent the issue.
    If anyone could shed some light on what I can do to resolve this, that would be appreciated.

    Hi evanVIT, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that issues like the one you are experiencing can be very frustrating. For this situation however, for update errors in the range of 3000-3020, I would recommend the troubleshooting steps located in the attached article. Please use the steps and information as a reference. 
    Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build"
    Cheers,

  • I set up my AE (2 in different rooms) and then tried to acquire and tried to select and play but got error message  -15506 "while connecting to the Airplay device".?

    I am using Lion on a MBP with 2 x AE.

    One quick update.  A workaround that was mentioned in one post did seem to work - if music is started via the Remote app it seems to connect fine. 
    And I'm not sure if I dare upgrade to iTunes 11 given the firestorm of bad impressions I see, including some that relate to Airplay functions...

  • HT1386 Cant connect to iTunes and I got this message when i connect my iphone to my itunes

    cant onnect my i phone to mu itunes and this message appear "Itunes could not connect to this iphone, Could not allocate a resource."

    HOW TO FIX CANNOT ALLOCATE A RESOURCE ERROR!!!
    I found a fix that worked for me after failing with all the others:
    IF your computer has an old cydia app called Wi-Fi Sync (you'll recognize it on your toolbar as a black silhouette of an iphone that NEVER goes away), then this is probably your main culprit.  Simple fix.
    1. Goto your hard drive in the finder
    2. Goto Library
    3. Goto Launch Daemons
    4. Throw this in the trash:  com.ghughes.wifisync.root.plist
    5. Goto Library
    6. Goto Application Support
    7. Throw this in the trash:  Wi-Fi Sync (it's an entire folder).
    8. Restart.
    9. Thank me.
    Peace and Love, Peace and LOVE!

  • How do set up your hotmail account on a mac book pro? I have it set up so I get mail but on my hotmail account I have lot of separate folders. They don't show up on my mac, they do on my iPhone and iPad.

    How do set up your hotmail account on a mac book pro properly? I have it set up so I get mail but on my hotmail account I have lot of separate folders to save messages in(for example :- bank, skyp, work, Facebook, apple, ect...). They don't show up on my mac. I also have an iPhone and iPad, there is no issue here when I set those up. I automatically got my separate folders. Anybody have any idea or encountered the same problem?

    Hotmail on a Mac is POP3 only, you will only get the basic folders (inbox, sent, trash etc) and it will not sync with other devices.
    And now I post this I see other replies, so this is redundant. !!

    On your iPhone you need to change your password in 2 places:
    - Incoming Mail Server and
    - Outgoing Mail Server
    To get to the password entry for the Outgoing Mail Server you have to tap on cell smtp.live.com and again on the second view.

  • I upgraded to IOS 7 and now I can't get my Hotmail account on my phone.  When I type in all the information, I get "Unable to Verify Account Information".  How do I get to use my Hotmail account using this software????

    I have had the same problem as yours on my Ipad after upgraded Procreate 2.01. My iOS is 7.04. I tried to find solution from internet for weeks. Fortunately, the problem was resolved a few minutes ago. It is very simple,
    1. Lunch outlook.com to confirm you can access hotmail mailbox. It means your account is Ok.
    2. Go to setting>Mail,Contacts,Calendars.Delete your hotmail account from your device.(my device is Ipad)
    3. Turn off your device, then turn on again.
    4. Go to setting>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and create your hotmail account by tap outlook.com. Be sure the incoming mail server is pop3.live.com.
    5. Waiting for validation.
    That's all. Hope my experience is helpful. Good luck!

    I Sugges you to log into your hotmail acc and go to security and password change bit, then you will see two-step verification.. turn that off and you will be able to set it up on your iPhone/iPad or even Mac.
    Give your phone a restart before trying to set it up. Thanks

    Make sure that your Apple ID is your email address and you do not have any other or old IDs associated with you. Go to www.appleid.apple.com and confirm this info. Make sure that the email address you are trying to sign up with is your primary one.
