Itunes will not restore or update any ios device
i have a mac running osx mountain lion, and i have the latest itunes available. Whenever I try to update or restore any of my devices (iphone, ipad) i always get an error 3004, -1, and multiple other errors. I try to change the hosts file to the default but I cannot even though i am the administrator of the mac, and it does not allow me to save any changes.
I have used jailbreaking software and i think they changed the hosts file. I really need this fixed, thanks.
Also my computer is really slow for some reason, i think it may have a virus, but im not too sure, it has been like this for a long time, even accross updates.

TS1702 This app will not be deleted from any iOS device that synchronizes with your iTunes library.
How do you remove an app from your iPad? I have synced the iPad and attempted to remove and this is the messgae I receive:
This app will not be deleted from any iOS device that synchronizes with your iTunes library.
HELP! Get rid of these Doodle Gods, Kick the Buddy, etc....As Jim states, that procedure deletes the app and its associated documents from the device itself. At next sync, the deletion should propagate and get rid of the backup on iTunes as well.
If not, you can also manually delete that backup. Go into iTunes on the computer you sync the iPad with. If needed, select Show Sidebar in the View menu. Choose Apps under Library in the sidebar. Click on the All tab in the middle of the window. Scroll about till you locate the offending app amongst the bunch of icons. Right-click or Control-click on it and choose Delete from the popup menu. If the app is gone already on the device, there should be no warnings. You should delete from the device first and sync, so this manual step becomes unnecessary. -
ITunes will not let me update to iOS 5.1.1 without deleting all my media. How can I fix this?
When I tried to update from my PC this came up:
"Updating to iOS 5.1.1 will delete all of the apps and
media, including iTunes Store purchases, on your
iPad. To preserve your content, apply this update on
the computer where you sync your apps, music, videos,
and photos."
I don't understand because this is the only computer I use iTunes for my ipad.
Help please!See

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

My phone lately has been searching for service constantly, I would say that 80%of my day my phone is searching for service. There was a software update for I think 8.1.2, my phone didn't have enough storage, so I tried to do it through iTunes, when I did that, I got the connect to iTunes screen and couldn't get past it. So now I have put my phone into recovery mode and have run into nothing but issues. One iTunes will not let me update the software, secondly I can't restore it, I get a pop up saying something that my device isn't recognized. I'm completely lost and frustrated Need some suggestions...
Hello sarmath,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I understand that your iPhone is in recovery mode, and while trying to restore it in iTunes you are receiving an error message. While certainly a frustrating experience, there is troubleshooting you can do to get your iPhone back up in running order. Without a specific error message, the article below is where you can start. If possible, please provide the exact error message you receive when trying to restore your iPhone so I can give you some more in depth help.

My MacBook Pro has Mac OSX 10.5.8 and will not let me update any further. Why?
I have a MacBook Pro that I purchased in 2009 (It doesn't have a SD card slot, but is an aluminum body). Right now it's using Mac OS X 10.5.8 and will not let me update any further, which means that I cannot install any new versions of iTunes or some other programs. How can I fix this?

You can't upgrade beyond 10.5.8, that is the final step for Leopard.
You can purchase Snow Leopard (10.6.x) from Apple (but you should have 2G of Ram installed, and sufficient hard drive space). Your Mac is fully capable of running Snow Leopard and will probably already meet the specs I mentioned. -

Itunes will not restore my 2nd gerneration ipod shuffle giving error1418
Itunes will not restore my 2nd generation ipod shuffle. I am getting an error 1418. I am running Windows Vista so none of the fixes that I have seen seem to work for me. Is there anything else that I can try or am I ipodless until Wednesday or Thusday when the new I pod arrives? And I thought Sleepless in Seattle was bad. Shuffleless in Seattle is much worse.
Have you tried all the steps here:

TS1424 my itunes will NOT let me buy any explicit music and i dont know why can anyone help me?

Either:
iTunes is trying to protect you from the ugly side of the adult world
Your parents are trying to protect you from the ugly side of the adult world
You've turned on the Parental/Content Restrictions by mistake
Look in iTunes at Edit/Preferences/Parental>Content Restrictions>Restrict explicit content and make sure the tick is not in the checkbox.

Here is the message my IPhone 4 is stating, "Error no successful firmware download after 60000 ms!! Giving up..."ITunes will not even recognize it, any ideas?
No, it has something to do with the firmware on the phone itself. The phone won't do anything. I have used redsn0w to try and put the firmware back on, no luck though. The farthest I am able to go is DFU mode. The message on the screen says, "Error no successful firmware download after 60000 ms!! Giving up..."
