can some one help me I was up dating my Ipad and something went wrong. I am on my computer now.
You are in Recovery Mode. Follow the instructions below to recover your iPad.
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad. Data will be lost. -
Apple sent an update to itunes program and it didn't complete installation correctly. Now I can't load it and get a consistent error message and the iiPhone can't sync without itunes installed. Anyone able to help with this?
Now I can't load it and get a consistent error message
What does the error message say? (Precise text, please.) -
I was downloading the latest OS and it started to install. Before I knew it the compputer said there was problem installing it, the itouch was put into safe mode and now itunes doesn't see the itouch. I have tried to reinstall itunes. I have restarted the itouch. And nothing I have tried has worked.
No knowing what safe mode is, all I can suggest is:
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

While upgrading my iPhone 3GS to iOS 4.2 something went wrong and came up with the message "The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred [1015]." Now it will not start at all. It just stays on screen with USB and the iTune picture. What can I do to get it going again. I only tried to upgrade because I was prompted to up-grade and now I am helpless. I did a backup before starting the upgrade. The error message did not tell what to do next. Any help is very much appreciated.
Usually that means the iPhone was hacked to unlock it from the original
carrier .
Updating the operating system locks it back to that original carrier
You could try this

However if the iPhone was hacked it is probably a paper weight now
and as this is an Apple hosted forum you can get no further help here -

Sorry, something went wrong and Word was unable to start (6) Office 2013
Ok this is just so annoying.
Whenever I try to open Word, it gives the error "Sorry, something went wrong and Word was unable to start.(6)". Other office applications either freeze or crash. Only Excel works fine. Running Win7 64 bit.
Tried all possible ways of installation/reinstallation. Did repair, uninstalled and reinstalled manually, uninstalled with FixIt from Microsoft, removed every leftover thing from registry. Also removed some other applications that I thought could cause this
problem for Office.
Uninstalled 64 bit Office, and installed 32 bit, same exact problems.
!!!Don't suggest me to run as administrator please!!!Hi,
According to your description, I suppose that Word 2013 was blocked by some other applications after you opening it.
Which operation system do you use? Have you installed the Office 2013 SP1?
Then, we try to do some tests to narrow down the issue:
1. Collect the Event log
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/what-information-event-logs-event-viewer#1TC=windows-7
2. Use the
Process Monitor to collect the detailed information.
Open process monitor, and reproduce this issue, if there is any files or keys were blocked during the process.Please let me know, and you could save as the file from process monitor, upload the file through One Drive and share the link to me. I'll
analysis it.

Hi, can anyone help me further diagnose?
On Windows 7 64-bit, whenever I try to sign into Visual Studio Community 2013 I get a bunch of clicking sounds, and then "Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."
I installed the 2013 update 4 just recently (3/23)
I was getting this error back in FebruaryHi HuggyPaul,
Thank you for posting in MSND forum.
>>whenever I try to sign into Visual Studio Community 2013 I get a bunch of clicking sounds, and then "Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."
Based on your issue, I suggest you could try to use an another microsoft live-in user account to sign in the Visual Studio Community 2013 to check if you can sign in the VS2013 Community with update 4.
Or you could try to use same user account to sing same version of VS2013 Communty with Update 4 on other machien and the check if you can sign in this VS 2013 Community with update 4.
(1)If you could sign in the VS2013 Community update4 by the another user account on your machien, I think that the issue maybe related to your user account.
(2)If you still could not sign in VS 2013 Community update 4, maybe you will need to repair or re-install this VS2013 Community with update 4.
In addition, please tell me what browser you use on your machine.
If your machien just insatall other browser such as chrome, please try to install the IE and then check this issue again.
From this error message, i find a similar thread about your issue, maybe it can help you.

Sorry, something went wrong and word was unable to start (40)
so recently, my ms word has not been working at all. It doesn't work, whether I open a new document or an existing file, and it shows the error message 'sorry, something went wrong and Word was unable to start. (40). It only started to show up recently,
and i was wondering if it was because i have not yet updated to the latest version of Windows 8, which i have been unable to do successfully. I have already tried to open in safe mode, and the fix it tool. Does anyone have any idea what i can do?Did other programs work well?
Repair your Office suites in Control panel>Program and features>Office>Change>Repair
If the repair doesn't work, please uninstall the current installed Office, and reinstall it again.
To uninstall the Office, follow the instructions in the following support article:

Since iOS 7.1 my phone won't turn on and is asking me to connect to iTunes. I connect to itunes and it says it needs to be restored. Not sure why. I try to restore it and then it says something went wrong and it won't work. So I've been without my phone for a couple days now. It gives me error code (29). The phone almost reboots and then 3/4 of the way through it gives me the error message.
If using windows...
Temporarily disable your firewall and antivirus software and try again...

I try to download some items. I keep getting "Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."
I was logged in to Live, but somehow it is getting lost. I have tried both Chrome and IE. Is there something wrong at MS or with my account? Also, it took me 15 minutes to find anywhere to submit a problem or question...very frustrating.
It kept sending me to self help where none of the options were relevant.

Sorry, something went wrong and word was unable to start (2)
I have been using office home and student fine until now when it will not open, at first it would say it was unable to open with error message 40 now it is error message number 2, I have no idea how to open it.
help please?Hi,
Is the complete error message "Sorry, something went wrong and Word was unable to start. (40)" and “Sorry, something went wrong and Word was unable to start. (2)”?
I agree with Sunil Shrikant Vyasasamudra. First you can repair Office from Control Panel > Programs and Features, maybe Office installation is corrupt.
If it doesn’t work, you can try “Fix it” tool in the KB below.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2827031
If there is anything else I can do for you on this matter, don't hesitate to tell me.

It's recommended to download and install
Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office

I'm sure I'm not the only one who gets this error.
I use Windows 8.1 and many time when I try to access a KB or a Microsoft link I get this error:
"Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."
it can happen either if I search something on google or enter a link inside Microsoft\TechNet\MSDN etc...
when I try to open the same link on Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox - it opens immediately as expected!
I know IE opens my sessions with an integration to my Microsoft ID, though I don't see any reason why it will block me from entering Microsoft links
any ideas?
Tamir Levywhen I try to access a KB or a Microsoft link I get this error:

Yes. Infuriating symptom. I'm still working on the hypothesis that is related to my accounts' credentials. I have not yet resorted to using Credentials Manager to completely deleting everything there. I have an idea that this atrocious
UX (It gets even worse if you try exploring the other options.) may be a really obnoxious hint to try changing my passwords, e.g. since I recently upgraded to W8.1 from W8.1 Preview. I contacted MS Support but their only suggestions were: to
do RIES (e.g. since the symptom shows on my browser, it
must be the browser that is the problem and ignoring my explanation that I had already proven that existing Cookies could not be the cause); try using a different browser (which I don't have yet because of the new OS); and then if that doesn't work try
to refresh the OS! (Talk about sledge hammer solutions to avoid doing diagnosis.)
A workaround is to open a new session where I won't be logged in and then I can just use the KB URL anonymously. (E.g. in IE press Alt-F, i. InPrivate Browsing mode (Ctrl+Shift+P will probably work too.) Annoying but not as irritating
as that damned UX.

MS Word 2013 unable to start. "Sorry, something went wrong and word was unable to start. (6)
I am trying to open MS Word 2013. I have purchased the MS Office online and pay a subscription. When opening MS Word, it comes up with the error message "Sorry, something went wrong and word was unable to start. (6)" This appears to be happening
with all MS office applications. Can someone please help?I faced this same problem and reinstalled office several times but no luck, then followed below steps and got my issue resolved:
Solution is that you run word in "Administrative" mode:
To run the Word program in administrator mode, try the step below:
· go to Computer, Programs files/Program files X (86).
· Look for Microsoft Office ->Office 15.
· Look for Winword.exe
· Right click on it and click
Properties
· Click on the Compatibility tab
and check the box forRun as admin.
· Clickok.

I have cleared cache and cookie and keep getting this message when i try to log into hotmail. Only happens in Mozilla, not other browsers. "Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."
It's been 10 days and nothing works.It is possible that the <i>cookies.sqlite</i> file that stores the cookies is corrupted if clearing cookies doesn't work.
Rename (or delete) <b>cookies.sqlite</b> (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookies files like <b>cookies.sqlite-journal</b> in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.
