I have 10.5.8 and i'd like to update to Lion but I haven't the app store avaiable to my sistem and I can find the atualization. At the software update doesn't have any atualization... I updated my iphone4 to IOS5 and having problems to use ICloud

As Retired Engineer indicated, you will need to install Snow Leopard first. After you install Snow Leopard, you need to go into Software Update and perform the updates. 10.6.6 will install the App Store. You should continue to update to 10.6.8 before purchasing and installing Lion from the App Store.
Be sure your machine meets the minimum requirements. Basically, any Mac with a Core 2 Duo processor or later and at least 2GB of RAM (but 4 is highly recommended). If you have a first generation MacBook Pro with a Core Duo, you will not be able to upgrade to Lion.

ICal syncing with mac and iphone problem - duplicating all alarms.

I have a mobile me account linked to my office mac, my home mac and my iPhone and my wife's iphone. I have been using this to sync all my contacts and calendar for 18 months with no problems until just after christmas. It suddenly duplicated all my contacts and all my iCal alarms. To solve it I had to use time machine to take my ical and address book back a few days and then force everything to update from that machine.
This I thought solved it but now three weeks later it has duplicated all my alarms again. Why is this happening and how do I stop it? It does not inspire confidence in this system if it randomly changes things. How do I know it will not suddenly delete something? It is also very frustrating and time consuming to reset all the data back a few days.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.

The synchronization between iCal, MobileMe, and iPhone is one of the biggest embarrassments and disgraces Apple has yet to deal with.
For over a year, I have been battling duplicates with little success. Add to all this MS Entourage, which I had to install last year because Mac Mail doesn't play nicely with Exchange server. (My company uses Exchange for our mail, etc.) To be clear, the duplicate problem existed prior to the addition of Entourage 2008. So you are out of luck, Koolaide Fans; you can't point the finger at MS in this case.
After 6 months of struggling and fighting with Entourage (and because there is no native version of MS Project or Visio for Mac) I finally had to install VM Ware with Windows 7, MS Office 2007, Visio, Project, etc. The MS apps work perfectly under the Windows 7 session. So, I my functionality for business has been restored. However, I am left wondering why I have a Mac if it can't provide me the functionality I need for such basic things as Email, calendars, contacts, and tasks. I am to the point where I am basically doing everything in the VMWare session under Windows.
I am very pleased with my Mac's ability to do video editing, graphics, and sound using Adobe products. But again, I work in mainstream corporate America where 90% of the marketshare is still PC/Windows.
In the end, I am hoping someone from Apple can come forward soon and say "This is EXACTLY how you need to configure your Entourage/iCal/MobileMe/iPhone so that you aren't crippled by duplicates and other nonsense...." It really is ridiculous.

ITunes won't start after reinstalls and iPhone problems

last time I think I clicked Never Register on iTunes after plugging my iphone,downloaded some podcasts to my phone,everything seems alright before that,but then my iphone won't sync properly with itunes...
iTunes keeps saying Syncing Iphone (sometimes it stops,but it doesnt say Sync is complete,on the left side it's still syncing) but after a while my iPhone goes back to its normal state (Slide to unlock,not to cancel) after I cancelled a sync (it took more than 2 hours,that's why I cancelled it,after the cancellation it became even more messed up)...
Deleted the podcasts and deauthorized iTunes store,still doesnt work.
What's the solution to sync my iphone normally again??
I did reboot on both my iphone and PC and they don't work,
I'm using Vista 32bit and Iphone 3G 2.2.1
I tried updating iTunes to 8,1,now everytime I connect my phone via usb,iTunes will crash....removed iTunes and installed previous versions including 8.01 and 8.02...still not working
after I installed 8.0,iTunes won't even open...
removed itunes and installed other versions including 8.1 again,they won't even open even after I completely removed iTunes & quicktime and used windows install cleanup...,reboot many times,deleted Temp folder....still doesnt work...
but the Itunes and iTunes helper processes are there on the task manager,I cant even kill them
sorry,I don't know where to post this...
please help,guys..
thanks

I have update iTunes to the latest version yesterday.
Up to her everything is fine. Due to ther issues I
had to go back to the Windows RESTORE point previous
to the iTune installation.
When I start iTunes I get the following pop-up:
"iTunes cannot runbecause some of its required files
are missing. Please reinstall iTunes".
I do that and when iTunes try to connect to the store
it shows broken links and the whole thing hangs.
I have tried to unistall iTunes, but it does not help
at all. This means that I do not have connection to
iPod. I cannot believe that I have to re-install all
my PC bcause of this.
I have discovered that QuickTime is corrupted. I cannot unistall it and if I try to re-install it nothing happens.
Is there a manual way of removing it from the system?
Which keys/modules do I need to remove?

BT Infinity Ipad and Iphone problems

Help please, got fibre installed yesterday and almost everything is perfect, my PC is fine, my wifes Ipad also fine, however; my Iphone and Ipad simply won't do anything. I thought it might be a safari problem so reset the data etc etc,
It could acces almost everything, FBook, Maps etc etc, but won't do anything else, I mean I cant use the internet, which is odd as that's what FBook and Maps use
It wont download anything and wont connect to ICloud at all, no matter what I do it says I aren't connected when I clearly am.
So I totally reset the IPad deleting everything and starting from scratch, still can't connect to the Cloud or app store, it won't even connect for messaging.
Oddly enough I managed to connect to cloud when setting up as it emailed me to say I accessed it
It connects to Itunes music and the App store yet no downloads happen they just sit there waiting
The devices are clearly connected as shown in my hub manager
Any advice most welcome
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Make sure you turn off "Smart Set Up" on the Homehub. See link how to do that
http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/44328/~/switching-smart-setup-on-and-off-on-the-bt-ho...
Some devices have a problem with the Homehub dual band having the same SSid (name). Try giving the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz frequencies different SSids. Just add a 5 to the end of the 5Ghz SSid so you know which is which. Check the 5 GHz Sync with 2.4 GHz: is set to NO.
Once you have done that "forget" the connection on your device and then restart the device and log onto both the SSids if the device can use both frequencies. Not all devices can use 5GHz.

Apple ID on iPad and iPhone problems

I changed my Apple ID but my iPad nor my iPhone 5 won't let me log out of my old account. I tried erasing the old account on my iPad but it won't let me because I have to turn off locate my iPad, which I can't do without entering my old password(doesn't work because it doesn't exist anymore). Even though my iPhone has my new account info saved under iCloud it still asks for my old email and password when I try to update apps. I've also tried resetting my iPad and nothing changed. Please help!

Your response fixed the problem on my iPhone but not my iPad. I updated my Apple ID but cannot delete my old account on my iPad because I cannot turn off "Find my IPad". I do not have access to the old email so I cannot change the password, what other options do I have?

IOS5 and iTunes Problems

I upgraded to ios5 from 4.3.2 on an un-jailbroken iPod touch fourth Gen and during the iPod backup it crashed and gave me the error "1604" (i think) and it went into recovery mode. Now my iPod is stuck in a recovery mode loop and my iTunes will not read any of my ipods that i enter into. Ive tried reinstalling itunes about three or four times now and ive also did the whole "press and hold both the home and sleep button till it resets or goes back into the loop" thing about six or seven times now. im worried about not being able to get ios5 or ever using my iPod ever again. If anybody could help it would be greatly appreciated.

I am experiencing a similar issue after updating my iPad2 to iOS5. After the initial download/sync many albums were missing artwork and several dozen songs were greyed out and unplayable on the iPad (and an iPhone G3S with iOS5). However, upon resyncing a second time, most restored to normal cover art and function. HOWEVER, it remain weird in that when looking at Album view on the Music app all the artwork is present on the iPad, but it appears blank on Artist view for many artists. EXCEPT if I enter the list of Songs for a given artist the cover art reappears. This is clearly a glitch in how different views within Music are storing and displaying the artwork, as it is clearly there but not being proprely displayed. I am thinking about resyncing again, but hope Apple addresses this soon.
Thanks for any advice anyone can offer.

HT4059 iBooks on iPad and iPhone problem

The books in my iBooks will not stay in the collection I put them in. They just keep returning to Purchased Books. But some will randomly place themselves in Books without being put there. I tried setting up a different collection and putting them all in there, but as soon as you exit the ap and come back - they are all back where they started from. I'm so frustrated! I also cannot get any books to delete. Can anyone help me?

Hi vmarlin!
I have an article here that I believe will go a long way toward explaining what is going on with your iBooks app:
iBooks: Tips for managing your iBooks library and storage on iOS devices
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5544
Specifically, I believe this will address your questions:
To free up storage on your device while keeping your library organization, tap Delete This Copy. The copy of the book on that iOS device will be removed, but the cover of the book will remain in your iBooks library with a cloud icon visible in the upper corner. To download the book again, just tap the book cover.
To remove a purchased book from your library on all of your devices, tap Delete From All Devices. The book will be removed from all of your iOS devices, and its cover will only appear in the Purchased Books collection with a cloud icon visible in the upper corner. If you change your mind, you can download the book again from your Purchased Books collection.
So if your books are not downloaded onto the device, they will still show up in your iBooks app with the "download from iCloud" icon in the upper right hand corner, but they will only appear in the Purchased Books section. You will want to download the books you want onto your device, then arrange them into the Collections you would like them to reside in. Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

Braden

Error 23, 28, 29: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Also attempt to restore while connected with the white USB Dock Connector cable that shipped with your device, on a known good computer and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value, (00 499901 064000 0), can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured security software can also cause these errors.

We have 2 iphone 4s which have just been updated with IOS5 and whilst setting up icloud the phone contacts were merged and now i have lost my phone contacts on first iphone 4 which have been replaced with phone contacts from my second iphone 4. help?

We have two Iphone 4 handsets. I updated first handset with IOS5 and activated Icloud with my existing Itunes account details - no problems. I then did the same on the second handset and instead of setting up a different Icloud account for the second hanset I mistakenly used the same details as on the first handset and merged the contacts thinking it would add all contacts to both handsets but it instead replaced contacts from first handset with those from the second handset.
How do I get back my contacts from the first hanset?
I read somewhere Icloud saves the last 3 backups which suggests all my contacts that have disappeared are somewhere but how do i find them ???
Help ???

Here's how to do it.
1. App Store, iTunes Store should have the same AppleID on Computer and iPhones. (Free to share apps, music and books... )
2. Person A uses the same purchasing account for everything (ie. email, contacts and ...).
3. Person B have the same purchase account see no. 1 (for App Store and iTunes Store) but create a second AppleID for iCal, e-mail, contacts and etc.

Manually manage music and videos isn't working after iTunes update and iPhone 4 IOS5 update.

Just update my iPhone 4 to IOS5 and updated to the latest verison of iTunes also and now I can't manually put songs from my music folder into my iPhone's music section now. Normally I would just drag songs into my iPhone's music section but now it won't let me. I have Manually manage music and videos checked also. I'm also running Windows 7. Any help would be great.

I am having the exact same problem. Also with transfering PDF files. It's frustrating. ANY help would be appreciated. I also run W7. I have an iPod Touch 4.

@lovehelmet good joke!
Today I visit an A1 Telekom store and I ask about this problem. He say "the programmer are working to that and today or tomorrow you will be able to set any APN or other settings".

I can see my photos on my ipad and Iphone. I want to be able to see them on my PC when I take pictures from my Iphone and Ipad. How do I see Photostream on my PC?

You have to install the iCloud control panel for windows, then sign in with you apple ID, and check what you want to sync.
