    I have a desktop mac operating on Mac OSx 10.4.11 and the system does not recognize my iphone and I am unable to upgrade to the newest itunes version. What do I need to do?

    Backup first
    It is always best to have a full bootable backup before you upgrade. If you fail to do this you will be unable to return to this OS if you decide you don't like the new OS. Also there is a slight chance that an install could lose everything on the Mac. The backup must be to an external hard disk. Preferably use Carbon Copy Cloner to make a bootable backup of the whole disk.
    Erase before the install
    Once you have a bootable backup on an external disk it is best to erase the internal disk with the new installer DVD before you install.
    During the install
    Preferably do not import any data or preferences from earlier OSs during the install process as this can reintroduce bugs.
    OS numbers and names
    OS X 10.4.x - Tiger
    OS X 10.5.x - Leopard
    OS X 10.6.x - Snow Leopard
    OS X 10.7.x - Lion
    OS X 10.8.x - Mountain Lion

    The Apple History site has specifications for every Mac ever produced: http://www.apple-history.com/
    Upgrade to Leopard
    Those wishing to upgrade to Leopard should be aware that install disks can be expensive unless you contact Apple. Details: http://lowendmac.com/deals/best-os-x-leopard-prices.html Standard Leopard installers impose several hardware limitations including speed and RAM size but all these restrictions can be overcome. Google for details. Leopard works well at 500 MHz with 1 GB of RAM and many happy users have less than this.
    Upgrade beyond Leopard
    OSs beyond OS X 10.5.8 require an Intel processor. If in doubt check this: Click the apple at the top left of your screen and select 'About this Mac'. This will give you your OS number. Then click 'More Info' to see which processor you have. If it says PowerPC you cannot upgrade to Snow Leopard and above. If you have an Intel Mac it is well worth upgrading to Snow Leopard now and then considering other options after that. You can buy Snow Leopard here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A
    Upgrade beyond Snow Leopard

    Check that your Mac complies with any requirements. If you are not in the US you should use the Change Country link at the bottom of Apple pages.

  • My phone crashed and has an icon showing a usb cable and the itunes emblem. when I connect to itunes it does not recognize my phone and treats it as just iphone. when I try to restore about 9 to 10 minutes into the restore the phone turns off and then on

    My phone crashed and has an icon showing a usb cable and the itunes emblem. when I connect to itunes it does not recognize my phone and treats it as just iphone. when I try to restore about 9 to 10 minutes into the restore the phone turns off and then on and then loses the connection with itunes and at the end of the download it just asks me to restore it again.

    Be prepared to lose everything on your iPhone but it should be backed up in iTunes so you can restore from your backup.

  • ITunes does not recognize the iPhone and hang often

    Hello,
    I am an owner of an iPhone 3GS and am very happy with this device.
    However, I still had some problems with the synchronization, since iTunes very often depended on when you connect iPhone and the device was detected only after several cold starts.
    Today I found a very simple solution that does not appear to help on your support pages.
    I changed the USB setting in the BIOS and the problem appears not to since then.
    I have at changed at
    Advanced --->>> USB Configuration --->>> Legacy USB Support
    Legacy USB Support Enabled was --->>> Enabled
    Now, Legacy USB Support is --->>> Auto
    I think it would be helpful for your support and their clients, where such a reference would be included on the help pages.
    Sorry my english isnt good
    Best regards from sunshinig Germany

    Hallo,
    ich bin seit kurzem Besitzer eines iPhones 3GS und bin sehr zufrieden mit diesem Gerät.
    Jedoch hatte ich bis heute einige Probleme mit der Synchronisation, da iTunes sehr oft beim Verbinden vom iPhone hing und das Gerät nur nach einigen Kaltstarts erkannt wurde.
    Heute habe ich eine sehr simple Lösung gefunden, die nicht in der Hilfe auf Ihren Supportseiten aufgeführt wird.
    Ich habe im BIOS die USB-Einstellung geändert und das Problem taucht seitdem nicht mehr auf.
    Geändert habe ich bei
    Advanced --->>> USB Configuration --->>> Legacy USB Support
    Legacy USB Support war --->>> Enabled
    Nun ist Legacy USB Support --->>> Auto
    Ich denke, daß es für Ihren Support und ihre Kunden hilfreich wäre, wenn dieser Hinweis auf den Hilfeseiten mit eingebunden würde.

  • Itunes on my Mac 10.4.11 does not recognize my iphone

    itunes on my Mac 10.4.11 does not recognize my iphone 4S
    also, once I plug in my iphone, it is recognized as a camera, but nothing to do with music.
    if i have to upgrade software, how do i do that?

    You get Mac OS X 10.5 on DVD if you have a PowerPC G4 or G5 Mac, or Mac OS X 10.6 on DVD if you have an Intel Mac. If you're using a G3 Mac, you need a newer computer.
