My iPhone 4 has crashed. i tunes will not recognize it and I can't restore it. I sync with macbook pro and all software is up to date. no anti-virus applications/software are on my macbook. any ideas?
my iphone 4g has crashed. itunes doesn't seem to recognize it and wil not let me restore it. i have updated all software and there are no anti-virus apps/software on the macbook that this phone syncs with. i do get an error message on the phone that says something like the accessory is not compatible but I have no accessory for the phone other than the apple chargers and ear buds. any thoughts?
The possible fix for the "this accessory is not compatible" is to carefully clean the dock port with isopropyll alcohol especially the pins which are on top of the mid rib. Be firm but do not break anything. Let it dry for a minute. See if that helps, if not try to clean one more time. If problems persist might need to Visit Apple.

My i tunes will NOT recognize my I Pad 2 when I plug it in to sync. Any idea why?
My I tunes will NOT recognize my I pad 2 device when I plug it into my pc to sync. Any idea as to why this is happening? When I turn the I pad 2 on, this is the first thing it tells me to do. I am clueless.
thanksWow. You are confusing me. Your profile says that you are running Lion OS X 10.7.2 which is the latest Mac OS. Had I known that you were trying to use an OS that didn't meet the requirements .....
You may be able to still buy Leopard - but you can't download it for free. You may still be able to purchase Snow Leopard which would be the better choice - 10.6. You need to ugrade the mini in order to activate the iPad.
I am still mystified as to why the iPad will not work out of the box - unless you did not buy it from Apple. All of the iPads that Apple sells now run iOS 5 and you don't need a computer to activate them. -
I've been working on our church website and all of a sudden this week, my computer will not connect to the site. I keep getting a message saying that the the connection to the server was reset while the page was loading. Does anyone have any ideas of how I can fix this?
The "The connection was reset" error message can be caused by a bug fix for the BEAST (Browser Exploit Against SSL/TLS) attack that the server doesn't handle.

When I share a video with fcpx and it goes to Quicktime, the last few seconds goes mute. I checked the clip and sent that the same route and all is fine. It is only when I send the whole 3gb video. Any ideas?

my time machine will not back up and i get this message: /Volumes/Data/Kathy P’s MacBook.sparsebundle” is already in use....i have tried multiple fixes but still unable to back up
If you have tried the fixes in Pondini's Time Machine Troublshooting, specifically #C12 and nothing helps, then it is time to let one of the genius types at an Apple Store take a look.

If you cannot take the Time Capsule to an Apple Store, contact Apple Support directly.

I want to search Time Machine for an appointment that has been deleted from my current view of iCal. Can I "restore" a previous version of iCal without losing all the entries I've made to the calendar since that prior date?
No. I tried it on my Time Machine (I had just made one change today, so I knew I would not be left in the lurch if I failed) and when I clicked on restore I got this message:
It seems you have several options. I chose 'Keep Both'. I suggest that you proceed with your search.

TRIED EVERYTHING!!! computer will not recognize IPOD and no charging
Tried changing cords; tried reinstalling all software; tried to determine if conflicting software; ran ipod out of power and my computer still will not recognize when I plug it in. Backlight initially lights up but ipod does not show up in device manager, itunes does not recognize it and ipod will not charge---ipod will charge on Bose speaker platform though....ANY SUGGESTIONS??????
If none of the above help, then it may be an issue that requires service so why not take advantage of the warranty?
You can arrange online service here.
Service request.
Or if an Apple store is near you, take it there and have them check your iPod.
You can make an appointment by using this link.

My iPhone 4 will not update. iTunes and my Mac is up to date.
I cannot get my iPhone to update. Everytime I hook it up to iTunes, it says that version 4.2.10 is the current version. I have the 10.4.1 version of iTunes and my Mac is 10.6.8. It still recognizes it and syncs just fine.
It's not a matter of Verizon catching up on the updates. The CDMA (Verizon) iPhone and the GSM (everyone else) iPhone use different chipsets. iOS should be brought up to speed when both are unified with iOS 5 this fall.

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:

paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

I used Ion Profile Pro turntable to digitize some old records. It worked fine for most of the records, but on five or six albums I get an error message saying "the original file can't be found" and it won't transfer them to my iPod Touch. However, the files are on my hard disk digitized and I can click on them and play them in Windows Media Player. When I go to iTunes, the records (or the CD created from the original records) exits in the iTunes libraries for sale. However, in some cases, the contents of the album offered for sale differs slightly from the original record, or the songs exist on different albums, but not the original album that I had. In some cases minor misspellings occurred on a few titles when they were entered in the ION softwareon my computer. In a few cases, it seemed as if ION did not recognize that there were two or three songs and ran them all together as one and again, my song list does not exactly match Apple's.
I own these songs, but iTunes won't put them on my iPod Touch. Is there anything I can do (short of paying for songs I already own) to get Apple to recognize these songs?You seem to have an iTunes problem, not an iPod problem. Try posting in the iTunes forum.
