Iphone 1g was formatted. Now nothing shows on phone or on my mac

Friend gave me his old 1g iphone (which he jailbroke). He "smoked" it before sending it to me.
Now when I power up, I see a pineapple.
When I plug it into my Mac, nothing happens. Not recognized by the computer or Itunes.
How do I install the iphone software??

that is not going to help.

  • HT3349 nothing shows in print view in numbers document, it was working now nothing

    When I go to print numbers document nothing is showing in print preview, it was working now nothing shows

    Grammy,
    What does your document look like? Does it have a large blank space near the top? Does the Print Preview graphic show move than one page to be printed. If so, what's showing for the higher page numbers?

  • Was updating my iphone 5 s and now is showing apple logo in itunes

    was updating my iphone 5 s and now is showing apple logo in itunes

    Not clear just what you are seeing - does the iPhone screen show the USB cable pointing to iTunes?  If that is what you are seeing then it has entered the recovery mode and has to be restored by following the instructions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • HT4061 I had my front screen replaced. Now nothing shows up on the screen, as if the phone was turned off. Help, please.

    I had my front screen replaced. Now nothing shows up on the screen, as if the phone was turned off. Help, please.

    Replaced where?  If it was done by anyone other than Apple the warranty has been voided.
    Regardless, the screen replacement was obviously not successful.  Take the device back to whomever replaced the screen and address the issue with them.

  • Ipod updated to 1.2.1 now nothing shows up on my ipod, all music gone?

    After constantly being told that a new ipod version was availble, I decided to go ahead and update, I made this mistake before and apparently did not learn my lesson.
    Advice to others, if it ain't broke don't fix it.
    I selected the option to let the updater go ahead and download and install the ipod update.
    I let the installer go ahead and do it's thing.
    I came back awhile later and it appeared as though the update was complete, so I ejected my ipod, powerded it down, put it in its case and took it to work.
    When I got to work and turned on my ipod and went to artists
    all that showed up was "ALL" and nothing else no playlists, no albums, no songs, no nothing like everything was erased.
    I had about 60 megs worth of songs on the ipod before the update.
    Where did everything go????
    Did anyone else have this problem?
    Is everything still there and I just need to do something for it all to show up again?
    Or, is everything really gone and has been erased?
    Boy, Once I get this resolved and my ipod working again,
    I will never update again unless I have no choice.
    Thanks so much for any help offered!

    I have a nearly similar problem with my 20G iPod with photo display. The only difference seems to be that mine does not appear to be caused by the update to 1.2.1. I updated long ago and had no problems. Now I constantly need to reset. My iPod just stops working, usually after clicking to play a song it will just start and not play and not pause and not allow me to select another song. So I have to reset, and reset....
    I did a restore too, but the problems continued.
    Then recently it started having the same trouble you are having. First, it showed nothing on the iPod and I just assumed I'd have to sync it to iTunes when I got home. But then it seemed that the songs were there after another reset. Anyway, it did start working again, that is, back to playing for awhile and then needing to be reset. I started searching here to see if this is battery problem or hard drive problem. My ipod is about 2 1/2 years old, no prior problems.
    Right Now, it is in the same state yours is in: my About page shows:
    Songs: 0
    Photos: 0
    Capacity: 18.5 GB
    Available: 5.5 GB
    Version: 1.2.1
    Like yours, it is clear that the hard drive is full of information, it is just not able to access it. It may well be a software issue, since that would explain why the hard drive has music on it, but a software problem is not letting us access it.
    I thought perhaps with the age of mine it could be the hard drive, but who knows. My iPod is making alot of noises as it goes through its resetting, and when connected to my iBook. Noises it did not use to make, which makes me think it's asking to be put out of it's misery. I'm thinking I'm going to have to take it the Apple Store, but I did want to first see if anyone else had this problem. We also have a 30G Video iPod syncing on the same iBook with updated software, nad it has no problems.
    If I do take it to Apple I will submit an update.

  • Synch Outlook 2010 diary with iphone 4 - was fine, now calendar gone!

    I've just updated to Outlook 2010, and my iphone now won't sync with Outlook calendar, now wiped its entire contents so no diary at all on iphone!  It goes thru the motions, but nothing is there.  Fine and dandy in my Outlook on the pc.  Daren't try synch with my ipad in case the same happens.  Any bright ideas please. Frustrated of Hove

    I'm on a 4S  IOS 7.1 won't show my Google Calendar I have about 8 that should be showing. FIXED!!
    I'm posting this here because your answers didn't help with my particular problem but aimed me in the right direction. so maybe this will help someone else.
    ------------------------------ This is what I tried ------------------------------
    At the bottom of the calendar app click Calendars there should be a check to the left of your calendar. (my calendars weren't even listed here)
    The google.com/calendar/iphoneselect solution. (mine was checked correctly)
    Google 2-step verification (I even turned this on to see if it would help)
    Deleting all accounts “Settings – Mail,Contacts,Calendars – Accounts” and starting over
    ------------------------------ My Solution ------------------------------
    Since I deleted all my accounts already this is what worked I don't know why.
    Under “Settings – Mail,Contacts,Calendars – Accounts”
    I added my google account “add account” “Google”... so on. Calendar was selected.
    I added a second account “add account” “other” (at bottom) scroll down to “add CalDav Account” under calendars.
    Server= www.google.com
    user name = your email
    password = your password
    description = whatever
    Calendar was selected.
    Then I went to “Settings – Mail,Contacts,Calendars – Accounts” and down towards the bottom I clicked “default calendar” and set it.
    I hope this helps

  • Swapped hard drives, now nothing shows up in iTunes

    I recently upgraded my computer from an 80GB drive to a 250GB drive. I connected the 250GB drive and turned the 80GB into a USB backup for my music and movies. The 80GB drive is where my music used to live. It was the D: drive, and when I connected the new 250GB drive, I name it D: and changed the 80GB to E. I then copied all of my music and movies to the new, 250GB D: drive. When I launched iTunes, nothing was there. I tried importing my music, but the podcasts, movies, TV Shows, etc are all still gone.
    How can I get back to where I was before I swapped drives?

  • 6.8 gb in my iPhone 5 mail account?  Nothing showing.  Why?

    1/4 of my available gb are tied up in my mail account.  Nothing there.  How do I reduce this? 
    Thanks for any ideas or suggestions.

    All the space may be tied up with, for example, trash in your email account.
    The way to retrieve the space is to restore your iPhone.  Plug it in to iTunes, let it sync, then choose "Restore" from the iPhone's summary page in iTunes.

  • I recently re-installed iOS on iPad but now nothing shows up in purchases

    Please help
    I got a new screen on my iPad so I could five it to my friend, I reset the device I factory defaults then when I tried logging into my apple account and getting my apps on my purchases tab nothing was under my purchases, please help, BTW, I am running iOS 7.1.1

    Hello, Easternrigger. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    This sounds like you may have used another Apple ID for these purchases.  I would recommend trying these steps on a computer.  If you have the applications already in your iTunes library, you can check what Apple ID was used by going through the steps below. 
    The items you are trying to play might have been purchased using a different iTunes Store account. To determine which account was used to purchase an item, follow these steps:
    Select a purchased song or App in your library and choose File > Get Info.
    Click the Summary tab. Note the Account Name that appears in the list. This is the account name (Apple ID) you will need to use when authorizing your computer to play this purchase.
    Note: The account name that appears is the one you used when purchasing the item and does not change if the account name (Apple ID) changes.
    If you've authorized the Apple ID that is shown in the Summary tab, you can check the purchase history for that Apple ID from Store > View My Account. If your purchase history does not reflect the purchase of the items in your iTunes library, consider any other Apple ID you may have created, and authorize the computer for your additional Apple ID.
    If you forgot the password to one of your accounts, you can recover it using Apple's password-recovery website.
    Download past purchases

  • Moved library to new hard drive, now nothing shows in iTunes

    I moved my library to a new internal hard drive, but the music does not show when I start up iTunes. I followed the instructions from the Apple website, so I don't know what to do. I can see the files on the new hard drive, so I know they are still around. I'm afraid to sync as I may lose everything. What do I do?
    VAIO PCV-RZ24G   Windows XP  

    First - re-read all the instructions and figure out where you might have dropped a step. Below are three similar sites that explain the same process. One may help you diagnose what went wrong.
    My guess is that you moved or corrupted your Library database file in the process. But without more information, I am just taking a shot in the dark.
    See these links for some step-by-step info:

  • Updated iphone to ios 5 now have none workining phone

    I updated to ios 5 was almost done and got a restore failed msg. I can't find my backup files. The phone does not have the locked/briked iphone log on it. It says iphone when i hit the home key and when i unlock it it asks if i want to enable location servies or disable the it asks me to conect to wifi. everyime i try to restore in itunes it fails. i have curent itunes update pls help i need my phone back asap.

    Generally this means that your iPhone had been previously
    hacked/modified/jailbroken to work with your carrier and the update
    relocked the iPhone to the original carrier.
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>Carrier?
    Be advised that the previous modifications to change from original carrier
    to your local Carrier may have rendered the iPhone unable to be
    officially unlocked.

  • HT4623 my iphone 5 was just updated with iOS 6, phone days update is completed but will not recognize my wifi admin password so I can not use the phone at all

    My Iphone 5 says my iOS 6 was successfully updated but I can not get the next step complete as it will not recognize my wifi admin password and am unable to use the phone at all HELP Suggestions??

    Enter the correct passcode to access the Wi-Fi, it is NOT the admin password for the Wi-Fi.
    Or, simply plug the device into the computer and restore it from the backup there.
