I downloaded iCloud on my iPhone and wanted to download it on my computer but it says I need Windows 7 or 8! Why I can't find my iTunes on my iPhone?
Try installing iCloud version 2.1.3 for Vista. Here's a link to the Downloads page:

I have a Iphone and I want to downloa a game but it's over 50MB so it says you must connect to wifi or download from a computer so I downloaded it from the computer and the computer says the downloads done but the app bar is empty and says "waiting.."
Need to Resume download to complete the ongoing Process.
Last Resort, put the iPhone in DFU mode (Google How to do that). Connect in iTunes. Follow on-screen prompts to Restore. All Data would be lost, if not backed up earlier.

HT1359 it says you must connect the power cord so the battery will never work on its own?
"after Battery Update has been installed, each battery you insert into your MacBook or MacBook Pro will be updated automatically. Your computer's power cord must be connected and plugged into a working power source."
you can never again use the laptop unless the cord is plugged?daurisn wrote:

you are misunderstanding..of course you can use the laptop unplugged from a power source. -
Every time I have to re-start my computer I need to stop my work. It would sure be nice if you can tell me how to keep this from occurring.
Thank you.Sounds like Firefox isn't closing down completely when you exit it. <br />

Please help!! After installing OS X Maverick it told me to restart to fully update and now it keeps restarting and telling me that it has failed and to restart again, only to tell me again that it has failed and needs to restart. What should i do??
I went to the apple store and got my laptop looked over by a technician who then told me that the hard drive was broken, which was the reason why it was doing so. It's best to take it to the store and get a good decision on what's wrong with it and get the solution. I hope this helps.

I'm trying to find an easy way to import my MP3 collection into iTunes without moving, copying or changing it.
I can't believe that iTunes doesn't have this feature, as even the most basic music players always have this.
I only use iTunes to sync my iPod, as I like Media Monkey to play my MP3s.
I have 137GB of MP3s, mainly from my ripping my CDs, LPs and downloading from Amazon. I've only purchased a handful of songs from iTunes,
Any ideas on how to do this easily?DAReese13 wrote:

It does have that feature. Why would you assume that it doesn't?

Okay, no problem.
If the top bar menu is not displayed in top left of your iTunes Library, use the CTRL+B keys to turn it on:
On that menu, use File/Add Folder to Library and navigate to the folder you wish to add:
If you wish to add just one song, notice the File/Add File to Library command on that menu as well.
Alternatively, you can drag-and-drop from the file's location into your iTunes Library.
That's all there is to it.
By the way, it is possible to have Amazon MP3s downloaded to your computer and then automatically added to the iTunes Library by the Amazon downloader. I do it all the time.

Verizon wireless network - unlimited data plan.
iPhone 4 - iOS 5.0
"This item Is Over 20MB
You must connect to a Wi-Fi
network or use iTunes on your
computer to download it."
This message was given when trying to update an app I already had installed on the phone. My question is why? Is this a problem with the programming making you connect to the internet via link or Wi-Fi. Or is this a limitation on the Verizon network? Or perhaps a limitation set in place by Apple to prevent long downloads? So I came here hoping to get some hard cold facts. (since Verizon associates would not or simply could not help me)
Personally I could care less if it took 6 hours to download an update. I do however have a problem paying a telephone service an insane rate to get "unlimited data" and not being able to receive unlimited data.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I dont have Wifi in the countryside and theres no DSL, only 3G and 4G. why should I have to buy another 3G service when I already have one? This is one of the problems of globalisation, because AT&T cant handle the volume, the whole world has to suffer.
I pay per gigabyte, so dont need these restrictions Apple! Its mine to use.

I'm a new iPad owner. When I've rented a movie, I can't work out how to play it back without a wifi connection. I get a message which says you cannot connect to the iTunes store without an Internet connection. This happens whether I've rented or purchased a film. We're going on a flight soon and would ideally like to watch one on the plane. Can someone please provide some step by step instructions. Thanks.
Rented or purchased video are watched through the videos app after you have downloaded them, iTunes on iOS devices is for buying media only.

Cannot rent movie via iTunes on PC - says I must connect to a wi-fi network...?!?
Hi everyone
I have iTunes for Windows installed on my Windows 7 PC and I've just tried to rent a movie. When I click on "Rent" it asks me for my Apple ID (as expected) but when I enter it I then get a message saying "This Item Cannot Be Downloaded on This Network. You must connect to a Wi-Fi network or download it on your computer"....which is kinda wierd becase I am on my computer, connected to my Virgin broadband modem via Ethernet.
Everything else on iTunes seems to be OK...can anyone shed any light on why this is happening and how I can fix it?
Many thanks...Getting the same issue that has poped up in the last day or 2 for me but I am not completely sure when I downloaded my last tv show off itunes outside of maybe sunday. But im on Windows 7 64-bit, Itunes version is the most recent one that is released (10.6.0.40). Internet is connected through a Cisco wireless router E2500 which is directly pluged by a ethernet cable into my desktop. The router is connected to my RCA modem which is provided by Mediacom.
Internet connect is stable and running fine and I am not seeing any kind of error messages on the modem itself that would be creating this problem. I have reset my router, modem, computer to see if that was creating the problem but nothing is working. I have also attempted to bypass my router and just connect my computer directly to my cable modem and I am still getting the same error message.
I can not download any new tv show off itunes (Attempted to get the free episodes of The Killing) as well as I am unable to download previous shows I have bought in the past though the purchased option. Itunes does allow me to download patches to app's as well as podcasts but it will not let me download a tv episode even a small size one like a preview of 4 minutes.
But outside of any other things I can think of I have no other ideas on how to correct this problem outside of contacting apple but I got a feeling they might blame it on the cable company which I doubt that is the case. But I hope the information I provided will be of use to trying to troubleshoot this problem.

I have a number of 32-bit files produced by the Merge to HDR routine in PS CS2 and CS3. I store the 32-bit files as the key creative stage in HDR processing is in the reduction to 16-bit (Image> Mode> 16 bpc in PS) and so it's handy to keep the 32-bi
