Hi
My phone is stuck in restoring from icloud after 4 days. I have tried restarting it and if I try to cancel backup it says data will delete data
Please help!!!,
There is no way out.
Restart the restore procedure and make sure you are connected to the wall power adapter and have Internet connection.
Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.
At the end it will ask whether you want to restore, choose iCloud backup.

I've updated my phone and I've made a backup. but now it says I must enter my code to restore all my files and I haven't got this code. If I cancel the process or choose something else, all my stuff will be deleted, and I really don't want that.
HELP ME PLEASE!!!If, for some reason, your backup got encrypted and you don't know the code, you'll have to set up your phone as new device and start all over again without the backup.
Warning: If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password, you can continue to back up and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync.
If you cannot remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore, choose set up as a new device.
If you can't get pass the lock screen, connect in recovery mode and restore the phone, you'll have the option to reset the lock secreen passcode.
iOS: Unable to update or restore and iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
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. -

I downloaded a song on iTunes, it won't play (it's name is grey), it shows up in purchased and says "play", but it won't play, I can't delete it, and I can't re-download it.....this is confusing please help!!
Hello CTGame,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like there’s a grayed out song in your iTunes library that can’t be played or downloaded again like other past purchases. Try taking a look at the article linked below and verify the computer is authorized to play that content.
How to troubleshoot iTunes Match - Apple Support
Songs appear to be missing
Songs containing DRM (Digital Rights Management) might not appear in iCloud, or might appear grayed out. This can occur if your computer is not authorized to play that content. Try authorizing your computer, then manually update iTunes Match. To determine what Apple ID your computer needs to be authorized for to play a specific song:
Locate and select the song in your iTunes library.
Choose File > Get Info.
In the Summary tab, locate the Account Name field in the right column. Write it down.
Click OK.
Choose Store > Authorize this Computer.
Type in the account name from the Summary field and enter its password. Click Authorize.
Choose Store > Update iTunes Match.
So long,

i'm trying to update my itunes to 10.5.2 but it freezes on about 55% and i can't sync my iphone 4s untill i updates... PLEASE HELP!
Have you disabled your virus protection?

I have just upgraded to 10.6.7, and was browing the App. Store, I selected a product by mistake and it started to download, I cancelled the download, but it still registers in my purchases list, have I purchased that appl.? and how can I cancel the purchase in my purchases list?
I think that as soon as you click "Buy" and type in your details, the iTunes server is alerted that you have bought the item, even if it hasn't downloaded. Your "purchased" list is based on your account and not your computer so I'm afraid even if you haven't completed the download, you will be charged for it (but if you do now download it, you won't be charged again). This also means that you can't remove items from the purchased list.
Glad to be of help (I hope),

I plugged in my iPod and it needed an update. Before the update could complete it said there was an error and then closed the window. Now my iPod is stuck in the loading screen and won't register in iTunes. Please Help.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Firefox tries to open but all that comes up is the Mozilla Crash Reporter and can't open past this point.
Do a clean (re)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

Please help me here, I'm all out of space and I want to download music. **** movie took up 4.1gigs and it won't delete.
Sounds like your iPhone is in recovery mode as the update failed. You will now need to restore the iPhone to factory settings with iTunes on a computer. If your iPhone is not being recognised by your computer read one of the articles below based on your computers OS:

so wht should i deoo..
my all data are on mac ..i have to back up .
how can iThere is no option for "DVD and CD Sharing" on a 2011 Mini because it doesn't have an optical drive to share. That option is available only on computers with an optical drive to share.
That option is used, on the other "donor" computer with an optical drive that you want to use/share. On the other computer you turn on "DVD and CD Sharing", allowing its optical drive to be shared. Then on the Mini you connect to it with "remote disc".
I believe you're thinking about the "DVD and CD Sharing" System preference in reverse; you activate it on the computer whose optical drive you want to use/share, not on the Mini without an optical drive.
See the following which explains how to set up and use remote disc: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1777?viewlocale=en_US -
It continues to ask me for my password for the old address nd when i enter it or have tried to change it, it does not recognise that address. Do I have to take y phone back to new to be able to log in to the icloud with the changed email address?
Sync with iTunes so you have a backup. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings. Restore the unit as New. Reconfigure for your new ID and password. Restore your apps, etc. from backup.

So all my devices have my contacts on them from my icloud account. However on my desktop imac when I go to the Contact application there are none in there. When I go to the preferences for contacts and try to add the icloud account I get through the login process of user account and password but then nothing else happens, no contacts get added to the imac. Hmmm. Now what?
Yes that is all correct. Now, I think I know why it isn't working, I just don't know how to fix it. Several years ago before icloud really was up and going I used dropbox to sync my contacts between my computers. I suspect that is the problem. WHen I open Contacts in Maverick on my imac it knows there are vcards somewhere and asks if I want to add them. I click yes but then it sits there and does nothing. There is no "Library" file that I can find in Maverick to move that old address book file back to the application support file. That's what I have to figure out.

I updated I tunes today , now I am unable to open my I Pod I Touch, the screen shows the I Tunes logo with a USB cord and arrow pointing back up to the icon, can't access my Home page
The screen indicates that your device is in recovery mode. It has to be restored by connecting it to a computer with itunes. Restore to factory settings.
This happens sometimes. Hopefully you have a backup.
