Ipad file corrupted after update

My ipad2 said it had an update.  It started updating then the screen showed connect to itunes, i connected to itunes it said I have to restore it.  I click restore and it tells me that the file is corupt.  :-(  Soooo sad!!

No, they are sending a box for me to send it to them and they will send me a different one. 
This link is where I started, clicked on talk to Apple Support now.  Then I entered my serial number, after that it talks about a charge for support, below that is a box that says something about update didn't work.  I chose that, gave a phone number and they called me a few seconds later.

  • ITunes library file corrupt after updating?

    Just the other day I updated to the latest iTunes software. This is the first time I've tried to use it and it keeps freezing (the swirly rainbow icon) until I eventually have to give up and force quit. My iTunes library is on an external hard drive which has admittedly been taking longer and longer to boot up each time I connect it, I don't know if this is related.
    After doing some research on here I created a new test iTunes library on my hard drive and it worked perfectly, so it must be a corrupt library file? I followed the advice on an old thread and replaced the corrupt library file with an older one from December.
    It worked....but here's the complication. Since that last backup in December I started using iTunes Match. When I opened the older library file, I saw that iTunes Match wasn't turned on, so I turned it on and it was saying that none of my library had been uploaded to iCloud except for iTunes purchases. I quickly exited, because frankly I couldn't bear the thought of all my library having to be uploaded to iCloud again (it took days and days...and days!). The music is still on the iCloud, but if I open that older version of my iTunes library it doesn't seem to think that it is.
    Any idea what I should do?
    Thanks for your help

    hmmmm. perhaps try running a chkdsk over the drive on which your iTunes library file is stored:

    does that find/repair any damage? if so, do you still get the same message from your itunes?

  • Keynote files deleting after update to 10.8.4

    I performed a small edit to a Keynote file today after updating to 10.8.4 last night (used the combo updater).  The file crashed during a presentation and I though "no big deal, I'll just re-open it."  When I went to find it, it was completely gone.  Vanished.
    I booted up Time Machine back at the office, restored the file, and chalked it up to some fluke.  Then I edited a different Keynote file.  It kept popping error messages about not being able to locate media files and I eventually closed it.  Again, I went to find the orginal file to re-open and it too has dissappeared.  This time, Time Machine wouldn't even let me restore it from a backup.
    I ran disk utility and it found minor errors in the volume bitmap and free space remaining.  So I booted to the recorvery partition and repaired successfully.
    I'm up and running again, but my Keynote file is still missing.  I'm afraid to open Keynote again for fear of this happening again.
    Is there any known issue with 10.8.4 corrupting the file system, particulary when opening and editing Keynote files?
    (15 " Retina MBP, latest model with 768 GB)

    GordonGecko9:
    - First, make sure you back up all remaining Keynote presentations. Hopefully, you have a backup of the one that got deleted.  I had to get a copy from another folder. Once the file was deleted, Time Machine suddenly thought it was never there in the first place too.  That's right, the deleted file was also deleted from Time Machine--even months back.
    - Once you have backups of your files, run Disk Utility and see if there are any errors.  I had a few, so booted into the Recovery partition and repaired.
    - Remove all your Keynote .plist files from the directory: /Users/your username/Library/Preferences.  Your Library folder will be hidden unless you hold the OPTION key and then select the GO menu at the top.  You can just move these files out of that folder and keep them elsewhere if you want them again.
    - Check your console log to see if any errors were reported about the time of the crash.  I had some message about Flip4Mac confilciting with another video codec, so I deleted Flip4Mac.  Not sure if it mattered, but I didnt' really need it anyway.
    - Since you have backups of your files now, you can start playing around with Keynote again to see if your problem is solved.  Here is what I found:
    > After deleting the .plist files, I sill had issues after editing presenations.  The changes would take, but then when I went to save the file, I got an error message that the location couldn't be found.  When I chose "Save As" isntead, Keynote crashed.  However, when I rellaunced Keyonte, the file was saved in its orginal location. (Before I deleted the .plist files, the presenation was gone after Keynote crashed).
    > Subsequent edits and saves worked normally on the same file.  As I opened other presenations from the same folder in the finder, I got the same errors (crashing and file not saving).  But then, upon relaunch everything seemed fine.
    It seems that something with 10.8.4 is causing directory errors with Keynote files.  When you go to save an edited presenation, it gets confused about where to put it and the file gets deleted instead.
    Please keep me posted on if the above "fix" works for you and if you notice anything else.

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

  • Ipad constantly crashing after updating to iOS 8.1.3.

    ipad constantly crashing after updating to iOS 8.1.3. I can't restore it to factory settings. I can't even turn it off. It just keeps crashing and trying to reboot etc.  Sometimes I see the black screen with the white apple and sometimes the screen is white.  I saw it say "Hello" once, but then it crashed again.  While rebooting, it does sync up with itunes briefly and is recognized.  When I try to restore, it says I need to turn off "find my iphone" but I can't access any settings within the ipad to do that.  Also, it tells me I need to enter my passcode to continue, but I can't do that either since the ipad is constantly in crash mode.

  • Why is my ipad so slow after updating it to iOs7

    why is my ipad so slow after updating it to iOs7

    The iPad 2 is not as powerful as more modern iPads.
    Backround updates (iCloud, App Downloads and updates - it can take a while after iPad was updated for these to stop.) , will slow things alot. The screen effects can be turned off, speed up things.
    Here are two links with tips on speeding things up

  • IOS 6.1.3 photo won't sync(from iTunes iPad/iPhone) to  after update

    After update both my iPad and iPhone to 6.1.3 a few days ago, I just found that both devices doesn't have anything in the Photos app! I have a lot of product sample pictures in a few albums, but just can't get them sync to the device anymore! When the sycn started, I can see the albums got created on the device, and the number of pictures need to be sync... it display "Syncing 0 of 1391", after maybe 1 minute, it stopped, nothing get sync.
    I only select the albums I want in iTunes to sync, no event selected... that work perfectly fine before until this update.
    No difference if wire or wifi.
    My wife's iphone got different issue. She sync to her own iMac, when select a few events, all pictures all sync to the phone, but no events created! so all photos all show up in the "Photos", but nothing in "Events".
    Just found that if I select 1 event, I can sync 1 album... but when I try the second time, it didn't work again!. After a lot of combinations of "events" and "albums" selections and many syncs, I finally got the pictures I want to my devices... by the behaviors are very unpredicatable, something definiatelly broken here!
    Anybody see similare issues?

    YES!  Updated to 6.1.3 and can't sync at all.  Either by cable, bluetooth, or wifi.  My mac won't recognize my iphone at all.  Doesn't even show up in finder.  Can't sync anything from iTunes as iTunes won't recognize my iPhone either.

  • Am I the only one getting calls from 253-802-0308 about malicious file downloads after updating FIREFOX?

    After updating Firefox I start getting calls from 253-802-0308 (International Telcom in Auburn Washington, found using 411.com). The report that they are getting messages that my Windows PC is reporting the downloading of malicious files. I don't think that there is a connection with Mozilla but it only started after I ran the last 2 or 3 updates to Firefox. Searches on Google and other search engines don't show logical connections to the phone calls and the problem being reported to me. None of my anti-virus programs, Ccleaner, DEFENDER & AVG pickup and malicious files. I'm curious about who they may be because when I question them during the calls they end up hanging up on me. Just wondering if similar problems are being reported.

    That is a reported scammer set-up. Read some of the following from actual phone customers. It is not related to your Firefox updates. I have gotten a few of these types of calls on my '''''unlisted '''''home phone number over the past several years. They use a dialer, usually automatic and sequential number dialing. Get a loud whistle to blow into the phone mouth piece or one of those loud air horns from the hardware/sporting good store; this kind of trash deserves broken ear drums.

  • Media files hidden after update 10.6.8 to Mavericks.

    Hello world,
    I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on an iMac 21.5" from 2010: 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB DDR3, 500GB.
    My problem came about when I updated from 10.6.8 to Mavericks. I downloaded Mavericks from the app store. When I tried to install it, it wouldn't let me because it said my internal HD was being used for Time Machine (even though I had Time Machine switched off). So I plugged in my WD USB 3.0 external drive and installed it with that. After the update, it had me create a new default user account, which I did. But now all my media files are hidden and I can't open my media folders on my Macintosh HD. I used Disk Utility to verify and repair disk on my WD external and on the iMac's HD.
    Question is, where did all my files go? I believe they're still on my HD, I just can't access them? I was under the impression that after updating to Mavericks that I could just use my old login and all my files would be there, but they aren't. I'm seeing some symbols on my folders, which I can change to have permission to open them, but the files still aren't there.
    I also tried the dummy account trick, but to no avail. I could have made a mistake in trying that one though.
    Any help for me to see my hidden media files would be helpful. Thanks!

  • HT201210 cant restore my ipad from itunes after updating latest ios.  message tells me to turn off 'find my ipad' from my ipad, but I can't because the set up is not complete without the restore.  What do I do?

    I don't know if I'm repeating my question. I can't restore my ipad after updating to latest ios. The battery went low, I had to eject and plug in to charge.  The set up will not complete without resoring from icloud or itunes (i backed up to computer using itunes) or setting up the ipad as a New ipad.  I want to restore all my stuff but the message I get in itune says "Find my ipad must be turned off before 'ipad' can be restored".  Go to icloud settings on your ipad and turn off Find My iPad before restoring your iPad.".  I cant' get to this setting on my ipad because the set up is not complete!!!  I'm stuck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I'm afraid if I set up the ipad as new it will backup the new ipad over my previous backup and then I will loose all my photos, songs, aps, notes,......

    I have the same problem and we can't simply just restore from the backup. It says that I have to set up my iPad through restoring. So I tried restoring it in iTunes but it won't restore until I have to turn off this **** "Find My iPad" crap but I couldn't because the set up's not complete and it won't let me go to my settings unless I set it up. So basically it's asking me to go to my settings but before I could go to it I have to restore, and in order to restore I have to go to settings. Get where I'm at?
    Please, Apple Tech people! Help this 14 year old girl on her period, PMS-ing, thinking about how I want  to strangle however made this mistake of a set up, updating her iPad in 3 am in the morning cursing the day she even thought of updating. I seriously need to get out of this loophole. I don't want to use my other iPad that only has 16GB. I just wanted the pretty graphics I saw in my parent's iPad airs, I don't ask for anything more :''''(
