  • ITunes keeps saying iPhone not eligible for the requested build

    iTunes keeps saying iPhone not eligible for the requested build after downloading the update directly through itunes with the lateset version of itunes.

    Here are some suggestions for your error message, copied from
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert, update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
    Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to performunauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. First you must uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer, then edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from the hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect.  For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart. Also, using an older or modified .ipsw file can cause this issue. Try moving the current .ipsw file, or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.

  • Ipad 1 showing as "Device not known" in WIndows 7 ultimate

    Hi Folks!!!!
    Am struggling here.
    I have read a number of articles and tried everything but still no joy.
    My computer does not recognise my Ipad 1, in device management it shows under USB as "device not known". I have tried all the suggested steps but no joy.
    Any help would be welcomed.

    WOW with the help from Apple's Web Site I figured it out.
    This URL was very helpful
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125
    I disabled 'Online Armour' then
    and this one even more so...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    I found out that there is a whole raft of Apple software packages that are interrelated, they needed to be uninstalled in a certain order with the broswer closed.
    In some rare instances, it may be necessary to remove all traces of iTunes, QuickTime, and related software components from your computer before reinstalling iTunes.
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order:
    1. iTunes
    2. QuickTime
    3. Apple Software Update
    4. Apple Mobile Device Support
    5. Bonjour
    6. Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    After they were all uninstalled I restarted windows to make sure the registery was updated properly.
    Then all you have to do is reinstall iTunes which will add all of the above back all over again in the proper order.
    Then I had to go into Win 7 SERVICES and STOP the new Apple Mobile Service and then restart it again so it would take effect.
    Started iTunes, plugged in the iPad and every thing began working as expected.
    Thanks Apple.

  • HT3887 why does my iPhone say device not supported when connecting to my make even after it has successfully paired?

    why does my iphone say device not supported when connecting to my mac pro, even though it has already succesfuly paired? I also use a wirless bluetooth keyboard and mouse on the computer successfully.
    Also when I turn Bluetooth on on the phone the devices cog never stops turning (forever serching for a device)

    iTunes automatically syncs voice memos to your iTunes library when you connect iPhone to your computer.
    It couldn't be much easier than that as you don't actually have to do anything more than normal.
    This lets you listen to voice memos on your computer and provides a backup if you delete them from iPhone.
    Voice memos are synced to the Voice Memos playlist. iTunes creates the playlist if it doesn’t exist. When you sync voice memos to iTunes, they remain in the Voice Memos application until you delete them. If you delete a voice memo on iPhone, it isn’t deleted from the Voice Memos playlist in iTunes. However, if you delete a voice memo from iTunes, it is deleted from iPhone the next time you sync with iTunes.
    USB syncing is far faster than Bluetooth.

  • BPM_DATA_COLLECTION fails with (Output device "" not known) error

    Hi all,
    I have an issue with Output BPM_DATA_COLLECTION_1 job in the satellite system  failing with 'Output device "" not known error.  Since it is collecting data for Solution Manager system why does is it trying to find an output device.
    It did not fail before and now I added another key figure (custom one) which is done the same way the other custom monitors are done in "Z_BPM_ECU_COLLECTOR" report and then in /SSA/EXM program, but the collector job started to fail.
    Also, for some reason there are two BPM_DATA_COLLECTION jobs, one is BPM_DATA_COLLECTION_1 and the other is BPM_DATA_COLLECTION_2.  _1 runs every 5 min and _2 is less frequent. They both seem to runt the same job which is /SSA/EXS. Why are there two jobs scheduled from solution manager in my satellite system?
    Thank you very much for your help!

    I am experiencing this same issue in our ECC 6.0 system.  We currently have ST-A/PI release 01M_ECC600 level 0001 applied to our system.  These jobs finish successfully in SM37, but I'm seeing the same error messages in our system logs (SM21).
    When I try to update the output device that is associated with these jobs, the user ID running the jobs is not valid since it's user type is Communication Data.
    Does anyone know if it ok to change the user for this job? Should it be run by DDIC?  I believe the jobs were created automatically when we applied ST-A/PI release 01M_ECC600 level 0001.

  • HP Officejet 4635 Scan Software says Device Not Found

    I just successfully installed my new HP Officejet 4635 and can operate it wirelessly.  I am able to print and I can scan if I use the buttons on the device itself to tell it to scan.  However, when I try to load the HP software, it says "Device Not Found".  I tried using the HP Scan and Print Doc and it says everything is fine, but I still cannot load the HP Scan software.  I need to be able to scan multiple pages into one file, and I cannot do this by using the control panel that is on the device itself.  Anyone else have this problem?

    hi my phone is disabled and asking me to conect to itunes but when i conect to itunes it says can not conect as u have to type code first on ipone ....help pls

    If the phone is actually working you can reset it fron the handset, but yours does not appear to be working. Be sure you are using a good cable and the cable is connected directly to a USB port on the computer (not a hub). Follow the instructions carefully in that link; the computer will not recognize the phone until it is in Recovery mode, and it's complicated to get it there. If you have followed the instructions exactly and it still is not recognized in iTunes. try removing and reinstalling iTunes: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925. If that still fails try a different computer, and also try restoring from DFU mode (Google is your friend).
