Hello pls help, Why is my Iphone 4S saying its going to take over 15 hours to back up ?

My iphone 4S has never backed up in the 2 years that I have had it. I dont know how to save all the stuff off it so I can do an update and if I try to back it up it says its going to take over 15 hours to back up??
Please let me know what I need to do so that I can back up my stuff and update my software without losing anything.

If necessary, cancel the backup by pressing the 'x' to the right of the progress bar.

Try the backup again. If still slow, i.e. more than 15 minutes, you likely have a USB problem.

I have just bought a movie and it says its going to take 170 mites to load. Can i make the loading time shorter?

Either by decreasing playback quality from HD to SD or HD 1080p to 720p.
Sounds as though your internet (like mine( is not fast enough for instant playback.
AppleTV need to buffer the video if internet speeds are below:
8 Mbps for 1080p
6 Mbps for 720p
2.5 Mbps for SD

I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
Identifying iPod models
iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

My iPod says it's disabled and to connect to itunes. now what

my iPod says it's disabled and to connect to itunes. now what?

Connect in recovery mode to restore, explained in this article: iOS: Unable to update or restore
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

HT4972 Both my iPod and computer (mac) say that iOS 6.1.5 is the latest software available. I have a 4th generation iPod touch, how do I get it to update to iOS 7?

. As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod.
All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB

TS1424 Hi, I've just rented a video, which says its going to take 14 hours to download. The 48 hours it gives you to watch the video has already started an hour ago. I had a message which says that I can start watching the film now but it dosen't play. Pl

Hi,
I've just rented a movie, which claims its going to take 14 hours to download. Its still at it after 1 hour. To make matters worse, the 48 hours it gives you to watch it has already started and charged me an hour. There was a message to say I could start watching it now but it dosen't work. Please can you help?

You'll have to wait till it downloads much further than. If your download says it will take 14 hours to download, you have a very slow connection. You would never be able to watch the movie until it downloads completly.

Why does the new update say its going to take 5 hours?!?!

i started the download and its been going on for hours and its still not done. Under it it says 5 hours!!!! is it supposed to be that long?

Unfortunately, yes. Apple's servers are being hammered by literally millions of people trying to update their software. A long wait is super irritating but it's what usually happens.
Maybe cancel it and if you don't mind waiting a day or two, it'll be much faster work after the rush is over.

IPhone backup hung for 4 hours on update to iOS 5

My configuration:
iTunes 10.5.2.11 (just updated to), iPhone 3GS, iOS 4.3.3. Windows XP Home Edition Version 5.1 SP 3. Last update and sync was 5 months ago.
Updating iTunes required a PC reboot, which I did. When I updated iTunes 10.5.2.11 (or maybe after I synced my iPhone soon thereafter), it asked if I wanted to automatically install updates (I think) on the iPhone. Hadn't seen this before, so I clicked 'Yes'. I also manually transfered all purchases from iPhone to iTunes before updating to iOS 5 (standard procedure).
The "hang":
The update seemed hang after it started the "backup" process. The "moving green lights" on the backup dialog window rarely changed, and the screen on the iPhone shows a rarely updating "time wheel/gear" icon. Also, every 2+ minutes or so, I can hear the iPhone vibrating, which I was guess means something is going on. Windows Task Manager shows the APSDaemon.exe at 98-99% CPU as well as CPU Usage at 100%. Something seems hung in my mind.
I got nervous (and impatient), so I clicked "Stop" the backup. After a short "Sync" message on the iPhone, everything seems in order and back to as it was before the attempted update. My iPhone settings confirm it's still at iOS 4.3.3.
My Apple technical support expired 4 months ago, so that's why I'm trying the Apple Support Community. I searched to Community logs but wasn't sure that my situation was similar to others.
Thank you for any help you can offer.

Something on your computer is blocking the backup. For one thing, you should back up frequently. Daily is a good idea. The backup is incremental, so when there is a long gap between backups the process of determining what has changed can take quite a while. But 4 hours is much to long.
First, try fixing Windows socket layer manager; this has been a consistent problem since a Microsoft update back in October. Open a Command window, and type:
netsh winsock reset
Then reboot and try again by JUST doing a backup - with the phone connected, right click on the name of the phone in iTunes and choose "Backup" from the floating menu,
If the backup still hangs the old backup is probably corrupt. Delete it by going to iTunes Preferences, Devices tab. After that make sure the delete worked. Use Windows Explorer to verify the Backup folder is empty. It is located at:
C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
where user is your Windows login name. If the folder is not empty delete everything in it.

IPod Touch 4G and iPad 2 won't update to iOS 5?

Hey, I have an iPod Touch 4G and iPad 2 that are both running. 4.3.5 and I am trying to update to iOS 5. I downloaded it for both devices and clicked update, it backs up the device, extracts software, and then say verifying restore with Apple. Then a message pops up saying, "Your device could not be restored. Your device is not eligible for the requested build" and it wont go any further for both devices. I have iTunes 10.5 and all the latest software on the Mac and no security software. I have also tried deleting the .ipsw files for both and re-downloading but that wont work. HELP PLEASE!!!

Okay nevermind, I feel stupid, I had set up those two devices on my previous laptop and thats why it wouldn't sync.

The calendar events and alarms are off by 3 hours since updating to iOS 4.3

I updated to iOS 4.3 last night, and I have a problem where my Calendar times have been offset by 3 hours.
It states that I have an event that on Google Calendar that is set at 12 PM - 9 PM today, however when I view my iPhone calendar that the event goes from 9 AM - 6 PM.
In addition, the alarm for the event has been offset 3 hours AFTER the event. My alarm, which is set ten minutes before the event, went off at 2:50 PM.
Any thoughts? I have the event set to EST in Google Calendar, and the time is correct in Google Calendar.

Hi and welcome to Apple Discussions, Darby.
Is the Time Zone set correctly on your iPhone? Look in Settings, Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Scroll down and make sure the Time Zone is set to the correct Time Zone.
If thats not it, this Apple document might help -> http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2339.

I have the Apple IPod touch 4th generation. How do you update the iOS HELP!

how do you update the ios on an ipod touch 4th gen.

If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

HT4972 If I have an iPod 3rd generation then why can't I update to iOS 5?

I have an old iPod touch ( 3rd generation) that I wanted to update, but after spending so much time I found that it only updated to iOS 4.1. Please help me.

It sounds like may actually have a 2nd generation. Please check the model number on the back, if it is A1288, it is a 2nd generation and can not be upgraded beyond 4.2.1.
