Ios 6.1 does not upgrade on iphone 4s
Like an eager beaver, I went out and installed iOS 6.1 on my iPhone 4S today. The phone downloaded the software, rebooted and is now stuck on the install screen. I waited an hour and nothing happend. Tried to force reset the phone back to factory settings from iTunes and I can not do that anymore.
Any help would be great.
PS: I am on the latest OS X with the latest iTunes
So I was able to resolve the problem. This is what I did:
Manual download of iOS 6.1 with iTunes
Removed USB cable to iPhone
Held Home+Power button until iPhone turned off
Held Home button and inserted USB cable. Did not let go until "reset" image came up
Reset software
Everything is now running correctly.

MY ipad3 running iOS 8.1 does not upgrade to 8.3. I have downloaded 8.3 but when I press install now and choose agree, nothing happens for hours. Any help?.
You are in the wrong discussion forum, but ok:
-- You say it is running 8.1 now, but your profile says 6.1.3, plse update your profile.
-- Did you download in Mac iTunes? or directly in the iPhone?
if in Mac iTunes: check the following Finder location: Startupdisk->Homefolder (yourname)->Library->iTunes->iPadSoftwareUpdates : the downloaded file should be there and be complete the extension should be .ipsw, if it is not there or not complete you should download again.
if in the iPhone: notice that the install phase and verifying phase and restarting phase need (good) internet connection. -

Both iPhone and printer on the same wifi network.
I tried printing from different applications. AirPrint does not work.

ITunes 11.1 does not connect to iPhone 4 (iOS 7)
I have updated both the iTunes (11.1, running on WIN XP) and my iPhone 4 (iOS 7) today.
Unfortunatelly, the iTunes does not recognize the iPhone since this update. When I connect the phone there is always an errors message saying: "iTunes could not connet to this iPhone. An unknown error occurred. (0xE8000003)".
I did virtually everything what I could (during some 8-10 hours of attempting to solve out this issue). I tried all methods following the instructions from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
However, nothing helped out.
I even removed/uninstalled the complete Apple software (iTunes, Quicktime, Safari, Apple mobile device, Bonjour,...) using a special removing utility, I cleaned up the registry, I created a new user account in WIN, I virtually swept out all Apple stuff from my computer. Twice.
But nothing worked out. Still the same issue like 12 hours ago: "iTunes could not connet to this iPhone..."
Any idea which may help to a desperate guy please?

I have a desktop mac operating on Mac OSx 10.4.11 and the system does not recognize my iphone and I am unable to upgrade to the newest itunes version. What do I need to do?
Backup first
It is always best to have a full bootable backup before you upgrade. If you fail to do this you will be unable to return to this OS if you decide you don't like the new OS. Also there is a slight chance that an install could lose everything on the Mac. The backup must be to an external hard disk. Preferably use Carbon Copy Cloner to make a bootable backup of the whole disk.
Erase before the install
Once you have a bootable backup on an external disk it is best to erase the internal disk with the new installer DVD before you install.
During the install
Preferably do not import any data or preferences from earlier OSs during the install process as this can reintroduce bugs.
OS numbers and names
OS X 10.4.x - Tiger
OS X 10.5.x - Leopard
OS X 10.6.x - Snow Leopard
OS X 10.7.x - Lion
OS X 10.8.x - Mountain Lion
More about Macs
The Apple History site has specifications for every Mac ever produced: http://www.apple-history.com/
Upgrade to Leopard
Those wishing to upgrade to Leopard should be aware that install disks can be expensive unless you contact Apple. Details: http://lowendmac.com/deals/best-os-x-leopard-prices.html Standard Leopard installers impose several hardware limitations including speed and RAM size but all these restrictions can be overcome. Google for details. Leopard works well at 500 MHz with 1 GB of RAM and many happy users have less than this.
Upgrade beyond Leopard
OSs beyond OS X 10.5.8 require an Intel processor. If in doubt check this: Click the apple at the top left of your screen and select 'About this Mac'. This will give you your OS number. Then click 'More Info' to see which processor you have. If it says PowerPC you cannot upgrade to Snow Leopard and above. If you have an Intel Mac it is well worth upgrading to Snow Leopard now and then considering other options after that. You can buy Snow Leopard here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A

Check that your Mac complies with any requirements. If you are not in the US you should use the Change Country link at the bottom of Apple pages. -
I upgraded my iphone 4s to ios 6.0.1 2 days ago and since then it has been overheated! is ios 6.0.1 not meant for iphone 4s? how can i solve the isssue?
Hi Dan,
I tried to reset settings but it didn't seem to help much. Then I read a few posts about deleting my email accounts and recreating them, and that actually seemed to help a bit. Now the only time I notice it gets heated up is when I am either on whatsapp or Instagram...that's it! -
iTunes does not work om iPhone 5 after upgrade to iOs7. App store is available without problems. do somone have a tip?
Check Settings > General > Restrictions, and check out Contacts toward the bottom under the privacy restrictions.
That sounds like the probable cause you cannot add contacts.
Regarding the iCloud behavior, that sounds like it got huge (35,000) because of incorporating other contacts (from social media, perhaps). Also contacts sync has nothing to do with iCloud behavior. The whole idea of keeping your contacts in the cloud is that once you change them on one device, they change everywhere. Specific syncs are not relevant. -

After I updated to iOS 5, my computer does not detect my iPhone 4. Not only that, all my backed up data was erased. =/ I cannot even sync my iPhone if it is not detected. What can I do? The USB ports are working. It is fully charged. I have restarted the phone and computer various times. But nothing works.
There is no way to consolidate iTunes accounts.
Setting up an iPhone has never required creation of a new Apple ID.
You've apparently purchased content with both Apple ID's. Sign into the device with the correct Apple ID and sync the content. -
ITunes 10.5.0.142 does not recognize my iPhone 3GS
My PC is running Windows 7 Professional, 32-bit OS. My iTunes and iPhone syncing has been flaky since I began using this machine in July, 2011 but was working. However, now iTunes does not recognize my iPhone at all. Previously I was able to force a sync by opening iTunes and then plugging in the phone, but now that is no longer working. The iPhone is recognized by the computer as it does charge, I can see it as a device in Window's Explorer and it asks what I would like to do with the photos / videos.
Here is the latest info on what is installed for each device:
- iTunes: 10.5.0.142
- iPhone: OS 5.0.1, Firmware 05.16.05
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to ask further questions as I'm not exactly sure what other information to provide at the present time; I'm pretty much at a loss right now.
Thanks!
JohnI am having the same problem. I have a 16Gb iPhone 3GS ios v 4.2.1 with iTunes v 10.5, yet when I connect the phone it tells me there are no updates available. I have 2 iPads, an iMac and a Macbook pro - all of which have upgraded successfully. I thought ios5 was available for the 3GS iPhone. Anyone got any ideas?

Calendar on MacBook Pro does not sync with iPhone 4s
I used Entourage to sync my calendar entries via iTunes for many years and it worked fine. Recently, however, it stopped syncing my information. I switched over to Mail and Calendar, hoping that staying within the Apple family it would resolve the issue. Still, my calendar information is not syncing with my iPhone. I use IOS 10.9 Maverick on my MacBook Pro. My iPhone 4S version is 7.0.4. Any idea why this syncing calendar information is not happening?
I have my iPhone attached via USB cable to my MacBook Pro.
I have been able to successfully sync my calendar now by activating iCloud on my iPhone and via System Preferences on my MacBook Pro after I learned that Maverick does not provide iSync.
However, I have a new problem: The calendar does not "upgrade" (it gets stuck) and I receive a "403" error and it gets stuck in a loop that I have to force quit. I have looked that up in the forum, but wasn't able to solve this issue because the solutions are way to technical and out of my league.
Very disappointed development as removing calendar from iCloud now also deletes all my entries on the Mac. -
IOS 8.1 Does Not Download All iCloud Mail/ Keeps Cache?
Hello,
I have setup and enabled an iCloud e-mail account on all of my devices and was successfully able to use the Mail app in Mac OS X Yosemite to copy mail from my Yahoo! inbox to my iCloud inbox. All e-mail copied from Yahoo! Mail appears in the OS X Yosemite Mail app as well as in the iCloud.com site, however, my iPad Air 2 and iPhone 5 both running iOS 8.1 does not download all of the mail from iCloud. I have tried the following on both iOS 8.1 devices with no success.
- Disable iCloud mail and re-enable
- Sign completely out of iCloud and sign in again, then reconfigure all iCloud services including mail
The result of both steps is that the incomplete list of e-mail in the iCloud inbox just reappears in the Mail app instead of downloading from iCloud again. It looks like the incomplete list of e-mail is stored on the iOS device and signing out of or disabling iCloud mail just hides it; re-enabling or signing in merely shows it again. This appears to work differently than my Yahoo! Mail configuration where if I sign out of or delete the Yahoo! account and reconfigure, iOS downloads a fresh copy of all e-mail in the inbox and all other folders. Here are my two questions:
- How do I get my iPhone and iPad Air 2 to download ALL e-mail from my iCloud mail account?
- Are my suspicions true? Does iOS actually store a cached copy of iCloud mail on the device when the service is disabled and just "redisplays" it when re-enabled?
Thanks!I had the same problem. My iCloud it's a mess since the iOS 8.1 update.
Probably your iCloud isn't working too. -

iOS 7 Calendar does not show appointments imported as VCS files in Microsoft Outlook / Exchange in Windows 7. I discovered this when downloading itinerary.vcs files from Delta to mark flights in my calendar. The work around I found is as follows:
Open the VCS file, this will create a Calendar entry in your Outlook,
Open the created Outlook Calendar entry, go to File -> Save As and then select to save as ICS file.
Delete original VCS-created appointment in your calendar to avoid multiple calendar.
Open the re-saved ICS file.
Appointment will now correctly synchronize with your iPhone iOS 7 calendar.
If anyone has better alternatives to this process, please help out. Hopefully, Apple will fix this with the next iOS update.iOS 7 Calendar does not show appointments imported as VCS files in Microsoft Outlook / Exchange in Windows 7.

Hi,
I updated my iTunes to version 11.1.4.62, but it does not detect my iPhone 4s any more. I have tried the following ways but still did not work:
Rebooted the computer
Rebooted the iPhone
plugged and unplugged the USB cable multiple times and to various USB ports
Uninstalled and installed the i-Tunes
Signed out the iTunes and signed in again
my USB cable and ports are all ok
my ios version on iPhone is : 7.4.4
my laptop os is windows 8.1 and my processor is: Intel Core i7-3610QM @ 2.30 GHz
I appreciate your help.I find this on another post and tried it. It WORKED. I had to modify to fit my situation but give it a try. Good luck.
Go to Windows 8.1 Control Panel.
Go to Hardware and Sound; Devices and Printers; Device Manager; Portable Devices (look for Apple IPad)
Right-click, then select properties on the menu list.
Under the "Driver" tab menu, confirm the update driver button is not greyed out. If the update driver button is grey and unselectable, you need to select and click "Change Settings" button located near the lower left corner.
Now you can click the "Driver" tab menu near the top, so you can see the "Update Driver" button.
Select "Update Driver".
Select and click "Browse my computer for driver software".
For Windows 8.1 64 bit, it should be located in the folder: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers.
Click Next, and let the driver re-install.
iTunes 11.1.4.62 should open automatically if your iphone is connected already.
