OS X Mavericks update stuck on grey screen that says Software Update Launcher in toolbar. It won't finishing updating

My Mac Mini won't finish updating OS X Mavericks 10.9.4. The screen turns grey and the toolbar says SoftwareUpdate Launcher at the top toolbar but it won't finish updating. I have turned the computer off by holding the back button no the mac mini but when I turn it back on the update is still not finished. I've tried these steps steps multiple of times. I have no idea what else to try.

New MB Air won't turn on AT ALL-after Mavericks 10.9.4 update. Did fine on my MB Pro, and haven't tried it on my Mini yet. Air is a doorstop now!?!

Try:

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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 another cable
- 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.

HT4623 When I plug my brand new iPod into my computer to transfer the information from my old iPod, all I get is a grey screen that says iOS 6. The normal screens and features don't come up. Can anyone help?

I am trying to start up my new iPod. I plug it into iTunes on my cmoputer and nothing happens. The screen on the iPod is just a grey screen with "iOS 6" on it. There are no icons, no slider bar, nothing. What happened? What do I do?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- The try again

Why have all of my camera roll images suddenly turned to a blank grey screen that says jpg in the middle?

all of my photos in my camera roll suddenly turned to blank grey screens the other day and they all say jpg in the middle of them, i did nothing for this to happen so can't understand why it has. I literally went on my camera roll and they all started changing as i scrolled up. Can anybody tell me why it has done this and what i can do to get all of my pictures back?
thankyou.

Here's what I'd try (starting at 1 and if it doesn't work, then 2);
1. Try opening the images (try taking a picture and see if that opens also)
2. Try plugging it into computer, check if you can view the photos on that
3. Check when the last backup was made (hopefully it was recent) and restore from that
4. Try an alternative itunes manager like copytrans and see can you get access to the images with that

Zen Touch wont shutdown and everytime i reset it its stuck on a screen that says 'Firmware Probl

Hi, i searched the forum but theres a lot to look through and i couldnt see a problem like mine, but if this has already been mentioned then if someone could link me that would be great.
Basicly I own a Creative Zen Touch MP3 player and its been working well until today when for some reason, when adding songs to a playlist in Creative Jukebox i got a message saying it could not add the songs. I shutdown the programme, restarted it and the same happened. I shutdown the programme, disconnected the player and got a 'playback' error everytime i tried to play a song. I reset the player but now it just goes to a screen with a picture of a computer screeny box thing and says 'Firmware Problem', i cant shut it down in this state and it isnt detected by the computer so i cant install any new firmware or drivers etc. Im not sure what firmware version i have (how do i find out) but if it helps i bought the player on the 22/0/2004 and havent updated anything for it as of yet.
Any help would be really apprieciated. Thanks.
Loz

TS1629 Trying to set up home sharing on my ipad and when I click on the music app I don't have an option to slick ''more". It's just a grey screen that says no music..

When trying to view shared playlist, or any music for that matter the music app is blank. All it show is no music in the middle of the screen and a play button in the top right corner

Howdy Togifink,
I think I found the perfect article for you. Named Troubleshooting Home Sharing it can be found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2972.
1. Set up Home Sharing on all devices
2. Verify system requirements
3. Check your Apple ID
4. Check your network connection
5. Check Firewall Settings
6. Quit and reopen apps and iTunes
7. Restart your network router
8. Cannot access my library when my computer is asleep
Each step in the article is accompanied by screenshots and instructions but this is the basic over view of where the troubleshooting will take you.
Take care,
Sterling

HT4623 When I go to settings general, there is absolutely no option on screen that says "software update". Where to next?

Unsure how to update, as of course I need it to run certain apps. My I pad has never prompted me to do so either.

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

HT201269 stuck on the screen that says "Welcome to your new Iphone"

I need some help.. I've recently repaired my iphone 4 and had it in recovery mode. I plugged it in to itunes (using Windows on a PC) and it sorted itself out of recovery mode. A screen then opens saying something like "Welcome to your new iPhone" where my option is to set up as new iphone or restore from backup. (shown as a screen dump under nr 6 in the checklist here: iOS: Transferring information from your current iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device)
I restore from a backup and everything seems to be going allright, when the restore is done iTunes says I will have to go through a setup on my phone. I do the setup and the phone now contains some old photos, textmessages, contacts, web favorites, e-mail setup and other things. But iTunes still shows the Welcome-page! I cant continue with the sync of my music and apps! my only option is to set up as new iphone or restore from backup again. I've tried a number of times to restore from backup and the only thing that happens is a new backup is shown in the scrollbar. (sorry, don't know if scrollbar's even a word..)
Whats wrong? Anybody?
