Ios 7 download asking for itunes update
I am trying to update my iPhone 5 and 4S to IOS7, both having been backed-up and apps updated. But when I click on check update, it says the following
A new iPhone software version (7.0) is available, but requires iTunes 11.0.5. Would you like to download iTunes 11.0.5 now?
But my iTunes is already 11.0.5. When I click on Download iTunes, it takes me to App Store but with nothing to update. I have restarted iTunes and both phones but with the same results.
I would like to avoid updating over the air if possible.
Been trying to download iTunes 11.1 from the Apple website http://www.apple.com/my/itunes/download/. It is the latest iTunes, not 11.0.5.
Still having problems as the website didn't download after clicking "Download". Nothing in my Firefox or my Download folder.
In the meantime, my 4S went into auto-update even without doing anything. I realised when I checked the Software Update screen and it has been on "Preparing Update" - been that for the last 30 minutes.
My first time ever having problems with iOS update!!

i connected my iphone 3g to itunes which was in 4.1 firmware and itunes ask for an update which i downloaded an updated the phone to version 6.1.3 but my phone cannot start it shows no service my sim card is not getting network and i cannot use the phone. what should i do.?
First, you do not have a 3G if you could upgrade it to 6.1.3, because 4.2.1 is the last version that will work on the 3G. So you either have a 3GS or you somehow hacked the phone to install an incompatible version. You can check the model you have by entering your serial number here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
Assuming you have a 3GS the most likely reason for your problem is you have a gray market phone that was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it. When you upgraded it you removed the hack, so the phone is now locked to its original carrier. -

I received a pop-up telling me that OSX 10.8.3 was available. I started the download/ installation, but something interrupted the process and it was not downloaded and/or installed. Now when I ask for software updates, I det the message that "no updates available." What do I do to get thei update?
If the installation didn't finish, maybe OS X 10.8.3 was installed partially, and it doesn't show up because the updater already updated the OS X version to 10.8.3, although it doesn't mean that everything was installed and updated. Just to make sure that everything is updated to the version included in 10.8.3, reinstall it with the Combo installer > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1640

Since downloading the latest ios my ipad2 asks for a passcode to get in. Since I have never had one I cant give it one and I cant open it up. How do I bypass the this please.
I have seen other users talk about this and make the same claim. Unfortunately, even if you didn't set a passcode, and the iPad is insisting that you did, unless you can successfully guess what the passcode is, you still have to follow these instructions and use one of the methods in here in order to restore your iPad which will then unlock it.

I went to synch my iPhone, iTunes asked for an update, I said yes, then my iPhone froze with a silver apple showing. Any suggestions?
Error 1 or -1
This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

I am trying to download the latest iTunes update; keep getting error message that says "The folder path 'My Documents' contains an invalid character". This also happens when I try to uninstall iTunes. HELP!
OK, never mind! I saw another question on the right side that addressed the problem, and it worked perfectly! Went to Major Geeks' page, downloaded the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility, and was able to reinstall the updated version of iTunes! This community is super!

I bought my ipad3 in the Philippines and have my settings, after 5months of usage my ipad3 is asking for an update "ios6". I updated it in japan because im working here. After updating i cannot install or update all my apps and whenever i try this statement appears "your account is not valid for use in the japanese store. You must switch to the philippine store before purchasing. What should i do? Do i need to come back to the phil store every time i update?
Before when its still ios5 i can still download and enjoy apps even here in japan, but now after updating ios6 here, its stock, itunes store no more use from me.

Always asking for iTunes password
I have a new 3GS and often when I wake it up it will ask me for my iTunes password. I have entered it several times but it seems to keep happening.
Anyone else seeing this? Any possible fixes?
ThanksMy iPhone (O2,3G) also asks for iTunes passwords when it should not, but only when accessing the App store. It did not initially do this under 2.2.1 but developed the habit when an app update on the phone failed during installation. Installing 3.0 removed the problem but this morning I tried to update an app and although the install seemed to work (the app is now the newest version) there were errors during the install warning me that the installation could not be completed and I would have to download it via iTunes. Following that, the phone is back to asking me for my password every time I open the App store app.
Presumably there's a file somewhere on the phone that is created or touched when doing updates and not cleaned up when they are successful. If so, would there be any way to delete it without losing data? -
I've been bitten by the "Missing MSVCR.dll file" problem when downloading the latest iTunes update, 11.4.62 (on a PC w/ Win-7 & Outlook-2007#. 'Have followed Apple's instructions of un-installing all Apple software, and re-installing it (Ugh). First result Outlook couldn't find my 1,385 item contact file in iCloud, although the outlook distribution lists were there. Second result, upon installing iCloud again, I have two iCloud contact files shown in outlook - "iCloud" & iCloud, within iCloud". 1,332 & 1,385 contacts respectively.
Plus an iCloud installation error message saying iCloud moved 6,835 files to a "deleted items folder" somewhere. This is NOT fun at 72-yrs old...!!
So, how do I make sure I haven't lost anythying from Outlook? Russ-AZInteresting response, Kappy - Back to original post: "First result: Outlook couldn't find my 1,385 item contact file in iCloud, although the outlook distribution lists were there (therefore, initially I had lost my contact file from Outlook). Second result, upon installing iCloud again, I now have two iCloud contact files shown in Outlook - "iCloud" & iCloud, within iCloud". W/ 1,332 & 1,385 contacts respectively.
Plus an iCloud installation error message saying iCloud moved 6,835 files to a "deleted items folder" somewhere. This is NOT fun at 72-yrs old...!!
So, how do I make sure I haven't lost anythying from Outlook? Russ-AZ"
You can safely assume that I have tried using it! So, to make things a little clearer:
1) I now have two iCloud "contacts files", w/ a different total count. What's the difference? Why the different toatl count?
2) Since re-installing the Apple software (part of the MSVCR" recovery instructions) "couldn't possible affected Outlook", why am I getting an iCloud installation error message saying iCloud moved 6,835 files to a "deleted items folder" somewhere. What's in those files? And where are they?
Probably more important questions get down to:
3) Why is a basic Apple product upgrade "screwing-up Outlook"? This iTunes upgrade, failing to install properly forced Outlook 2007 into a 2-min start-up cycle. Which was fixed with this "Goat-Rpdeo" of re-installing MSVCR80.dll.
4) And under the latest release of iOS-7.0.4 on our iPhones, why is Apple now forcing us to use the iCloud to back-up our contacts, calendars & tasks, vs. allowing these files to be backed-up directly on our PC's via the USB cable?
Thanks again for your interest and comments. - Russ-AZ -
I just downloaded the latest itunes update 11.1 for windows 7 and now when I try to open itunes with the shortcut on my desktop I get this error message: "The item 'itunes.exe' that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved, so this shortcut will no longer work properly." I can't open itunes at all. Is there anything I can do or is there a problem with the new update?
Start > Programs = Firefox
Does that shortcut work?
If so, delete the current shortcut that is in the Quick Start tray and drag the one that is in Start > Programs down there. -

If you can’t install iTunes on your Windows PC, or if you see “error 7” or “error 2” after you install the software, follow the steps below in order.
