IPad 2 won't install apps after ios 5 update

after iOS 5 install, apps are getting "hung up" in the waiting stage

Try restarting your iPad or resetting it and see if that helps. Restart first.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Why is my ipad stuck in recovery mode after IOS update? I can't get it out even after I restore. Please help!

I did an IOS update and now my iPad is stuck in recovery mode and I can't get it out. I have tried to restore through iTunes, but after restore it says it is still in recovery mode. Please help!

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

Ipad mini will not restore after ios update 7.1.2

Hi Community,
I recieved a message last night about the update 7.1.2 for my ipad mini. I left my ipad on overnight while plugged in while it was updating. i woke up this morning seeing my ipad must be connected to itunes. I connect my ipad to itunes and it must be restored. Every time i try to restore and update the ipad from itunes i get the error code 3004. I have tried hard resetting the ipad, re-downloading the latest version of itunes, and disconnecting and reconnected the usb plug.

Hello, Ronald.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here are the steps that I would recommend going through when experiencing error 3004.
Resolve network errors
Related errors: 17, 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194, 3000, 3002, 3004, 3013, 3014, 3015, 3194, 3200, or "There was a problem downloading the software," or say the "device isn't eligible for the requested build.". These alerts mean that your computer is either having difficulty contacting the Apple update server or communicating with your device.
Check your computer for software or settings that might cause communication issues between your computer and Apple or between your computer and your device.

Iphone 4 won't switch on after ios update

Hi my iphone 4 won't switch on pretty well first use after latest update.
I have tried numerous button pressing configurations and times as suggested on other forums but still no luck...any ideas?

Hold down Power on/off and home button at same time, when apple logo appears again release.
If still have same problem force recovery mode restore with iTunes, set up as new first making sure phone goes to home screen.
If all good - restore from back up
good luck...

IPad2 can't install apps after iOS 6 update

Recently updated my new ipad2 (Christmas gift) to ios6. Since then the I have not been able to install new apps. The "enter 3 questions" screen goes white when I try to "choose a question".
I would prefer just to roll back but I've read that is not possible. I have tried updating my apple id settings online - no luck, only asks one question. I've tried clearing the safari cache and deleting my iCloud I'd (random), but so far no progress.
Is there some patch forthcoming?
Thanks!

Finally got passed by clicking "done" on the 3 questions screen,nthen it complained "these are required fields!" And then suddenly the "choose a question" button started working.

IPad switches on and off after iOS update cannot backup no previous backups

Hi,
I would really appreciate some advice on this problem.
My parents updated their iPad, and apparently it got stuck for hours, after which they switched the iPad off.
From then on, the iPad keeps turning itself on and off, mostly showing the Apple logo, and sometimes the 'apps screen', but only lasting for at most 2 minutes before switching itself off again.
The unfortunate thing is there is no backup on iTunes. I tried connecting the iPad to iTunes, and backing up, which happens for some time, but then got the following errors:
1. iTunes cannot back up because backup is corrupt (checked other threads - there are actually no backups on the computer to be deleted);
or
2. iPad shuts down, causing the backup to stop. iPad turns back on itself, and backup restarts, but shuts down again after some time.
I understand we can potentially restore the iPad to factory settings, but that means losing all the data on the iPad. Would like to know if anyone has ideas how to fix this issue, or at least save a backup?
Thank you.

I don't think this will work because from everything that you have stated, I believe that the iOS is corrupt and will need to be restored but did you reboot the iPad? You just never know....
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
You can't backup the device unless it is operational. It just will not work.

IPad won't download apps or iOS 8.1.2

hello,
i have a new iPad mini. After the initial set up it only downloaded a few apps and then would not continue or allow the download of any more. assuming it might be a software issue, I attempted to download the new version of iOS 8. It has now said requested download for 25 minutes. Any advice? Thanks

Perhaps, given the day of the year that it is today, Apple's servers might be quite busy doing updates and app loads. Try again later.

Bounce Apps after iOS Update

I'm using iPhone 5s with 32G and there is 7G free space. After update iOS 7.1.2 at early July, the phone occasionally turned to blue screen during viewing photos or switching between apps or scrolling the screen, and back to the home screen in a while. The situation has got worse these 2 days. Apps bounced when the phone activated in 15 mins or less. Blue screen, Apple logo, and then go to black screen most time. Sometimes remind me to reset touch ID after the phone has hung. Reboot the phone cannot help the case.
I used several hours for back up to PC/iCloud and restored the phone. Blue screen appeared again in less than 15 mins after the restoration completed. Some apps could not restore in the phone as they were not back up (no idea why not all apps back up to PC via iTunes??). iTunes showed no back up was made in iCloud. But iPhone showed there's one in "Storage and Backup" and the data is restored actually. It's confusing.
Could anyone help? Or waiting for next update to fix the bug??

Thanks for the reply.
Bug type 110 and 115 were found in "Diagnostics & Usage". I think many diagnostics reports disappeared when the apps/screen bounced to blue and the phone restart.
I restored the phone from iTunes Backup, not as Set Up as New Phone. What's the difference between set up as new and from iTunes backup? If "Set Up as New Phone" is used, can I restore the backup, or all data will be lost?

IPad won't accept passcode after iOS5 update?

Just updated my iPad 2 to iOS5. Turned it on and the passcode prompt has changed, no longer just asking for 4 digit passcode. Oooookay, I entered my old 4-digit passcode and it didn't work. Tried my Apple ID passcode, no luck. Tried the password for the MacBook that the iPad is sync'd to. No luck.
*** Apple?
Anyone? This is a BIG problem for me because I use the iPad for work constantly, and I really don't have time to waste an afternoon at the "Genuis" bar resolving a problem that shouldn't have happened in the first place.
Does Apple even BETA TEST this junk?

Wow, I have just purchased an iPad for my wife and had this exact problem. It didn't help that it decided to lock at exactly the same time I was trying to sync it to iTines on a computer. I did a restore and had to re-install all the apps. All went OK, then it did it again. I went to the Macshop who said they had never heard of such a thing. I would not have thought to try my wife's outlook exchange password unless I had found this post ! Thanks

Brand new iPhone 5s dead, black won't come on after ios update...is fully charged, was working fine till said yes to upgrade. Did not watch process beyond seeing Apple logo appear, left it alone, came back, dead. Tried holding top button, tried home button, nothing...HELP!!!

If iTunes does not recognize your iPhone even if it’s plugged in, you may need to put it into DFU (Device Firmware Update) mode. If you have to put the device in DFU mode, you will most likely be unable to back it up.
Hold Power button for 3 seconds and then the Power and Home together for 10 seconds (exactly).
Release Power but keep holding home until the your iPhone shows up in iTunes.

Why won't my ipad connect to the wifi after I updated it to ios 7.1.2

Never have I ever been so upset at an electronic device
If I had know my iPad would cause such distress after this update I wouldn't have attempted it.
Because of this bloody update a plethora of problems have appeared and I have no clue how to fix it.
Firstly at around 4 this morning the wifi connection was spotty so I had to keep on reconnecting, but that was fixed by getting closer to the router. I thought "problem solved no biggie right?" WRONG! I left my house and came back expecting the wifi to connect again, but that was a fail.
SOOOOO I figured I needed to forget the network and log back in. That didnt work. I should not have done that. I should not have done that.
I got the *Unable to join the network. Dismiss* crap over and over and over again!
So now I figured I'd look up some help! Why not give it a go! So i got that whole (general- reset- reset network) with or without turning on airplane mode bs. Didnt work. Trust me I tried both.Twice.
Since that didnt work I figured a reboot would. No. I turned my iPad off so many times I probably gave the poor thing whiplash
Now this has been going on all day and I finally gave in an hour ago and decided if I restore it to the ios 7.1.1 it'll work again.
Well it must be my freakin birthday cause guess what? You have to turn off your icloud's "find my ipad"to restore and to do that you need a........ wait for it................. internet connection!!!! Brilliant. Just. Brilliant. -_-
Do you FEEL my struggle yet????
all my problems...... they all lead to that dang wifi connection. Fml.
Any of you magical smarty pants have any help for this poor unfortunate soul.
it would be much appreciated.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at
http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

Safari won't work after iOS update

My Safari 6.0.3 won't respond after installing this weeks iOS update.

Do you mean this OS X update to 10.8.3? iOS, for iPads/iPhones, etc hasn't been updated for two or three weeks.
For the Safari problem, have you tried resetting it? Launch Safari and from the Safari Menu>Reset Safari. tick the options and then 'reset'. Any change?
You could try re-applying the OS X update using the combo:

or re-install Safari with the standalone installer:

Illustrator update won't install, even after uninstalling and retrying multiple times.

Illustrator update won't install, even after uninstalling (using the "Uninstall Adobe Illustrator CS6" app and retrying (using Adobe Application Manager}multiple times. Now I can't open AI CS6 at all.
The error message I get in Application Manager is:
"Application could not be found. Restore in case it was trashed/moved to a different volume. Reinstall the application otherwise (U44M1P2B)"
Help!

Can you please try installing the Adobe Application Manager from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4774.
If that doesn't work then the safest course would be to remove all Adobe Creative Software using the uninstallers located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers. This should then remove the Adobe Application Manager folder also inside Utilities. Once the software is completely uninstalled and the Adobe Application Manager is removed then you should be able to reinstall from https://creative.adobe.com/.
