New iphone cant use it, empty itunes
I'm trying to set up the phone for the very first time, after selecting the language and country it tells me i need to connect to itunes so i did but nothing happens an empty screen pops with the icon showing the iphone is connected but nothing else, on the iphone it says connected to itunes.
Because of that i tryed the wireless version but that gives an error "We're sorry, we are unable to ...".
it's a brand new phone and a christmas gift it ***** i can't use it.

can i set up my new iphone 5s using my ipad (because my work laptop wont allow me to installl itunes).?
No, but you do not need iTunes to setup a new iPhone 5s. Create an iCloud backup for anything you want to transfer to the new iPhone.

Trying to set up my new iphone 5c using the iTunes back up from my iPhone 4. It keeps getting stuck on step 2 of 5 "syncing calendars" Considering I hardly use the calendar I don't know why it would take so long. (18 hours and counting)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!Did you ever resolve the iCloud problem.I am in the same position and its driving me mad!!! If you have a link to an solution I would appreciate it.

how do I add custom ringtones on new iPhone 5, using iTunes 11.04 and Mac OS 10.7.5?
Are you meaning rintones that you create from existing files?
If so - then Google and you will get lots of hits on 'how to'.
Once you have the ringtones in your iTunes library then make sure in iTunes prefs>General tab - the Tones option is selected. Once your device shows in the Devices list make sure you select from the Tones tab in the Devices window the tones you want to d/l.

I know that iCloud backs-up apps and other stuff to your phone incase you want restore from a back-up if you start a New iPhone. My question is if I start a new iPhone (not use the restore from back-up option) and redownload apps like (Games, Instagram), would my pics show up on Instagram and would my Games show it was saved and the acccomplisments will remain from the last place I left out.

Icloud or itunes backup, only backs up app data, not the app itself.
so if you restore as new, then there is no app data on your phone, you start out new... -
Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work.
Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work. I did the reset option using side and home buttons but in vain. Please don't tell me to set up a new device coz its gonna be a hassle restoring apps, emails, contacs...etc.
Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:

just connected my new iphone 4s to my existing ITUNES to get old music and it wiped my contacts. Can i still get them back , i didn't manually back up my phone before
Contacts are not part of the backup. Contacts, when using your phone as intended, are synched to your computer's Outlook, Address Book or with a cloud service. If you haven't been using your phone as intended, then your contacts are gone.

This is threadjacking. Where someone posts something in a thread that has nothing to do with the thread. If you want to ask a question, then start your own thread. You won't get an answer here. But to keep you from having to start a thread, there is no iPhone unlock code. -
Siri not working on brand new iPhone 4S - using 4G or Wi-Fi
Siri not working on brand new iPhone 4S - using 4G and Wi-Fi
I have tried multiple times over numerous days in multiple locations
Any hints?Well to start your iPhone 4S does not have 4G... it just shows 4G at the top of the screen..
Try turning SIRI off and on.. if that does not work
Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings..
Because SIRI is a network connection to a server nothing more.. it is not on your device so nothing is wrong with your phone..
Also SIRI is in BETA... and not 100% -
I got a new iphone- went to sync with itunes just to get music and it restored my phone to my old phone's settings. lost everything including ALL of my pictures. Is there any way to unsync my phone so I can get everything back?!!! please say yes!!!!
In short. No, you cannot unsync. If you had a back up from your old iPhone you cand restore from a back up.
In iTunes go to Edit > Preferences > Devices > and select the latest back up.
Before you synced your phone did you have it set up with the PhotoStream or iCloud? The pictures would be saved there. Or if you had them sync to a file on your computer. -
I had an iphone 4s and it worked nice with facetime and imessage using my phone number but it was stolen on December so I buy a new iphone 4s using the same cellphone number but now imessage and facetime does not work with my number, it only works with my apple ID. Please Help me I speak Spanish so if my English is not ok I´m sorry about it.
Do you think that apple has to reset in their database of the old serial number attached with my phone number and that’s why I can´t activate imessage and facetime with my number in the new iphone 4s??I understand all of this Meg; that is why I bought an Iphone; but never expected my phone not even give a at least a 24 or even 12 hours....I work 12 hour shifts and also would expect to have to charge each night but not twice a day or more. I am not always somewhere I can charge my phone.
Your points are true; however it doesn't help me...... -
I'm setting up my new iPhone and already have an iTunes account. It's asking me if I would like to set up as a new iPhone, or Restore from the backup of my iTouch. If i set up as a new iPhone will that delete all my music from my previous iTunes account?
It will not do anything at all to your computer.
