  • IPad2 will not update to OS5

    Managing iTunes from an old Windows box running XP sp3.  Have updated iTunes to the most recent version.  iPad2 will backup and sync normally under OS4.3.4, but when I try to update iPad to OS5.0.1 the pre-install backup fails with error -5000, and a warning that continuing will destroy all iPad content.
    As far as I can tell the content of iTunes and the iPad are identical, so untransferred files are probably not the problem.  Any ideas for a fix greatly appreciated.

    Try placing the iPod in DFU mode and then try to restore.

  • 3 WEEK old itouch will not update/restore!!!

    I have a fairly new itouch.
    As I was on itunes and apparently had an update for my itouch software i clicked this to update.
    It then went into recovery mode and I cannot get this to restore now.
    I have the latest version of itunes, i have restarted the laptop, i have followed lots of advice and nothing has worked!
    PLEASE could anyone help me?
    The error half way through the restore is error code no 14. When I click more info it takes me to a page which describes my problem exactly but none of the advice works :'(
    If I take this into Apple will they charge me to have it fixed even though this is their recognised problem???

    As you are still under warranty, there should be no charges to fix your ipod.
    Did you try to connect in recovery mode and see if you can restore it? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

    my ipod touch says i have version 3.1.3. tried to upgrade through itunes but it says its the latest version and i can't update further

    I suspect you have the original (1G) iPod touch. Those can only go to iOS 3.1.3. To identify yours:

    There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
    Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

  • After I updated my 2 Iphones  and one Itopuch the bluetooth on one of the phones and the Itouch will not stay on. When you go to the general settings to turn it on it shows on but the icon disapears when you go to home scree or leave general seetings.

    After I updated my two Iphone 4's and my Itouch bluetooth problem occurred on two of the three devices.  One of the phones and the itouch will not keep the bluetooth on.  When you go to the general settings to turn it on it show on and the icon pops up but as soon as you leave the general settings the icon disappears and will not show up in the home screen.  It will not pair with any devices.   It will search for and find them but won't pair because the icon will not show up meaning it is off. What can i do to fix this problem that I believe was caused by the update.

    Sounds like we have a similar problem.  Four days ago I was playing music through a wireless Bose speaker via bluetooth and everything was fine.  Then I was texting while listening and got 2 texts about the same time as I was typing one and my phone went black.  I pushed the home button and it worked, went into my texts and all were there.  However ever since then the time isn't right, so it can't keep time no matter what I do.  The bluetooth works only at times, the wifi keeps jumping on and off, sometimes my data won't work and the other day I couldn't even turn it off, so had to wait until it died.  The battery life display at that moment wasn't correct either.  Took to Verizon, they couldn't help.  Suggested a factory reset, which I did last night and still the same issues!  One day I couldn't even text my husband on his iPhone.  Just wouldn't work at all.  Did everything suggest and still not good.  Seems like after stalking these pages today a lot of people are having this problem in Dec/Jan and of course also I'm 3 weeks out of my 1 year warranty and so were many others, by days.  Very strange, and all on the 5C.  What did you do?  Is it working now?

  • I've updated to iOS 5 and now my itouch will not sync.

    Hi There:
    My hard drive crashed and has recently been replaced.  I've downloaded some new songs from iTunes but now my itouch will not sync.  It states something about, "sync failed to start" but doesn't state why it failed.  I would really appreciate any ideas of what to check for.  I'm not really good at this.

  • IPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers?

    iPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers? I downloaded old version of Numbers 2.0.1 from DVD but with both versions the 2.0.1 will not open.  So both versions are present but only the new version functions. I tried to drag the new version to the trash but the old version still runs error message and will not open. I did not try to restart with the new version in the trash.

    Maybe. See:

  • HT4623 My iPad will not update to 5 at all. I don't even have the option of software update in settings. I've tried to update over iTunes and it doest work there either.

    My iPad will not update to 5 at all. I don't even have the option of software update in settings. I've tried to update over iTunes and it doest work there either.

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • My iPhone 4s iOS 7.0.4 will not update music or apps from iTunes 11.1.3.  this was true of my pc and the new MacPro.

    My iphone 4s ios 7/0/4 will not update music or apps from itunes 11.1.3.  this was true with my pc since ios 7.0.3 even with update 7.0.4 and now continues with my new MacPro also runing itunes 11.1.3.   as most state in previous threads, syncs all non itunes related data with no issue and appears to work correctly on itunes data but then hangs on the last step of updating until it times out.  i have tried marking specific music to transfer, setting up new playlist, deleting some old playlist on phone but stopped short of restoring my phone back to new due to the amount of non itunes data that i will lose.  The itunes setup on the macpro was completely with the download of all music from a previous external backup and the creation of new playlist - on the first sync with existing phone it did ask to overwrite all phone itunes data with macpro itunes data which i did accept - no different result - no changes on phone.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved. 
    If the problem continues, take the device to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

  • Firefox problems - Can't open from Downloads - Can't print - FF will not update and more and more...

    I've been having several problems with Firefox, to the point that I almost can't use it anymore. In no particular order, they include:
    1. When I download something, 'Downloads' opens. When a d/l finishes I used to be able to run an install or open an image from there, but now I get this error message,
    Windows cannot access the specified device, path of file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.
    ...but I can go to my Downloads directory and run or open it from there.
    2. If I go to File > Print or File > Print Preview, I get this
    Printing Error:
    "Before you can perform printer-related tasks such as page setup or printing a document, you need to install a printer. Do you want to install a printer now?"
    and if I click yes, i get this,
    "Operation could not be completed."
    3. Firefox will not update itself. I go to About, it downloads the new update, and I click the Apply Update button. Firefox closes, and nothing happens. A few minutes later I click to run it, and it opens with a 'Software Update' window that says,
    Update Failed
    "The partial update could not be applied. Firefox will try again by downloading a complete Update"
    ...and that does not work.
    I download the new version, and when trying to run it from Downloads, I get the error (as in #1 above):
    "Windows cannot access the specified device, path of file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."
    When I go to the folder it's in and run it from there, it installs, but the problems persist.
    4. I go to Help|Troubleshooting Information, and clicking the Reset Firefox button only closes Firefox. Clicking the Show Folder button doesn't do anything.
    5. I used to be able to drag a url to the desktop, a folder or even a email, but now all I get the the O with a / through it.
    6. I also used to be able to, when I click Browse on a site to upload a jpg or a gif, I could right click the file and open it in a photo viewing program (Irfanview or Paint), and now I get
    "Windows cannot access the specified drive, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."
    I've created a new profile and it makes no difference.
    I've disabled all add-ons and it makes no difference (I have to disable them manually).
    The problems are there for different user accounts in Windows.
    I've uninstalled Firefox, and removed the profile - rebooted and reinstalled it, but the problems persist.
    What more do I have to do more to completely uninstall it?
    I've kinda saved myself by using Firefox Portable, which I'm running from it's own directory. It runs as it should, but I'd prefer not to have to use it.
    If i can't fix it, I'd like to completely uninstall Firefox, and just install it new and have it work properly. I have no (or only occasional minor) problems with Firefox on other computers. This computer is Win XP, fully updated

    The post I was responding to said,
    "Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps. "
    Somehow, I think that means Windows...
    I've tried Firefox in Safe Mode - it makes no difference.

    That is the highest you will be able to go with 3g. You need 3gs or 4 to go any higher (multi processors and more memory needed).  Version 4.2.1 marks the end of your updates for that device.
