    can i factory reset an iphone thru itunes or icloud without having my iphone present

    If you set up Find My iPhone and the phone appears in iCloud.com, you can erase it, which is what I presume you are wanting to do. If you didn't set up Find My iPhone or it doesn't appear there, then there's no way to erase the phone without having it in hand.

    What iPhone do you have? You can check in settings>>general>> about.
    If you have a 3G you cannot update beyond iOS 4.2.1. The 3G is over 4 years old an was discontinued over 2 1/2 years ago. You need the latest ios to run the latest versions of some apps. If you have a 3GS you can update.
    If your phone is not responding, reset it by pressing and holding down both the home button ad lock/ sleep button simultaneously until the Apple logo appears.

    What I should do now?

    Something has gone wrong. Turn your phone off, then force it into recovery mode:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. In your case, select "new".

    Please help.  Every time I try to sync my iphone with itunes it gets stuck at step 2 and just spins.  I have iTunes 10.6.3.25 installed.  I've even shut down and rebooted.  Nothing helps.

    Based on what someone else said, I am getting the "rotating ball of eternal sadness".  Yup.  That about describes it.

  • I need help syncing my contacts between Outlook and iPhone using iTunes. I followed the steps given and ended up with just email addresses showing in my contacts even though I have phone numbers and snail mail in my Outlook Contacts. Using  Windows 7

    I need help syncing my contacts between Outlook and iPhone using iTunes. I used the knowldge document and set it up to transfer my Outlook contacts to the iphone using itunes.
    In contacts on the iphone I only see the email addresses.
    Yet in Outlook I have email, snail mail and phone numbers.
    I followed the knowledge document from iphone.
    I did it once, didn't work so deleted all the contacts from the phone and tried again. Same result. I have a PC using Windows 7 64 bit.

    You can't access an Exchange account via ActiveSync with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac.
    You can access a MM account with Outlook on your PC at work and keep your MM email account server stored mailboxes synced between your PC at work, your iPhone, and the MM "cloud". Not sure about syncing MM contact info and calendar events with Outlook at the same time with an Exchange account.
    This will not provide for syncing your Exchange account contact info and calendar events with the Addresss Book and iCal on your Mac because the accounts are separate.
    You can access an Exchange account and a MM account at the same time with the iPhone's mail client, and sync contact info and calendar events over the air with both accounts at the same time. You can view combined contact info or separately for each account, and the same for calendar events.

  • I probably misclicked when I activated the security lock on the iPhone and now I can not figure out what password I entered. Moreover, I have patches and funky looking phone so I can not restore iphine pres itunes. Please advice.

    Your only recourse is to force it into DFU mode:
    Turn your phone off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.

    One week ago my iPhone felt, the screen was damaged but it was still working. Today it felt again and now it doesn't turn on, what can I do? Please help me.

    Hold down on the sleep button and the home button at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Ignore the red slider. When the logo appears let go of the buttons.

  • I tried to update the software for my iPhone 4S. It froze, and now won't turn off, or on, or sync.  Any ideas on how to fix this?

    I tried to update the software for my iPhone 4S, 16 GB to the most recent version (8.1?).  I don't know what I was updating from, because I can't access that, but it was whatever was installed on it (I got it about a year ago, so probably 6.something). 
    It froze, and now won't turn off, or on, or sync with my macbook plus, which is what I have always sync'd it to.  (I backed it up and sync'd it right before I tried to update the software.)
    Since it originally froze almost 3 hours ago, it shows a white screen with the apple on it and a line underneath.  When I try to sync with my laptop, it says it needs me to enter a passcode on the phone, which I can't enter because the screen is frozen.  So I'm unable to access the iPhone portion of iTunes.
    I have tried to turn it off, with no luck.  I have tried rebooting my laptop and syncing, but I still get the same result.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?
    I really wanted to wait to update the software, but I was having internet connectivity issues for the past 3 weeks, and Sprint suggested updating the phone's software.
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hi NWL1,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone won't update and is stuck. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
    If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a great day,

  • I've just installed iTunes 11, and now my playback shuts off on Apple TV. Suggestions to fix?

         I've just updated my iTunes to 11, and now my playback shuts off on Apple TV after a few songs. My Apple TV is up to date and everything worked just fine yesterday. I've restarted everything and think I've checked all settings that might affect the shutdown. This is very frustrating as I was putting together a presentation for a party. I'm on Mountain Lion (all up to date too).
         Help, please. I'm out of ideas and ready to reach for the hammer.

    Posted this in another forum -- maybe it will help you. 
    Round number 2.  Updated iMac and Windows7 PC to iTunes 10.5.1 (42).  Home sharing broke again!  Verified working prior to my update on Windows PC and Apple TV2.  Tried a lot of things to make it work, but here is what I had to do:
    1) Rebooted my router (all but ATV2 is wired ethernet).
    2) De-authorized/Re-authorized both iMac and Windows PC; rebooted both
    -- This got home sharing to work between both computers; ATV2 still was not working despite turn off/on home sharing, reset, change IP, etc.
    3) On iMac, turn home share off, then back on.  Now all three working.
    In the end, I might have just tried step 3 (turn off/on Home Share on iMac), but now I've no way to verfiy -- that is until the next new release of iTunes.
    Apple -- this is crazy.  I enjoy your products but having to run through these steps every time is a turn off. 

  • I downloaded os 5 in my 4 g iPhone and now the calendar and contacts freeze or don't open at all

    I downloaded OS 5 on my 4 G iphone and now the calendar and contacts freezes or doesn't open at all.

    Same issue! Tired the "phone reset" + "reset sync history" no joy. When I dock the phone i get "I-tunes was unable to load data class information from sync services. Reconnect or try again later"
    Backed up before updating to OS 5, but I-tunes dosent seem to have saved any of the data. Tried the "restore" but it didn't work getting a (-50) error what a MESS!!!
    Luckly I have my contacts backed up but I can't add them back or anything to the phone via I-tunes, even drag and drop a song for example will not work. The "sync" button is ghosted out.
    Now I have a very expensive phone that can do F**K all
    Any ideas???
