PLEASE HELP PLEASE PLEASE

Did you try the things listed here? Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build" - Apple Support Is your device jailbroken? Have you ever used the computer to jailbreak a device? Are you trying to load an iOS other than the current one? What version of iPhone are you using? Is this occurring when attempting to update via iTunes and the computer?

You need iTunes 11.1 which is not available for download in google chrome or other browsers. The only browser it has worked for with me is Safari. Hope this helps!

This should work:
Run notepad as Administrator
Browse here to find the host file:
C/windows/system32/drivers/etc
Add this line at the end of the file:
74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
Save the file
Restart iTunes

Every time I try to update my phone it says there is a network error?

I've tried to update my 8G iPhone 4 at least five times within the passed 2 days through my computer and iTunes, and every time it finished it says there was a network error and is not available for update at this time. Does anyone know why this could be? Also, I am trying to restore my phone but in order to do this it needs to be up to date. Any ideas?

Try restarting your computer and your router.
If there is a specific error code, take a look at this article.

I made a new apple account but every time I try to update any apps it says I need go put in my old account password and every time I do it says it's incorrect

.

When downloading Apps from the Apps store will always follow the Apple id login. Please sign in with the apple id in which you used when downloading the apps to enable you to then update listed app.
Good luck

This iPod, iPhone, or iPad could not be restored. this device isn't eligible for the requested build.

This fixed my problem. For the last year I could not update after iOS 4 was released, restore or restore from a back up on my iMac model from mid 2007 with intel. The only way around this problem was to use my old HP laptop to use my Apple products. After several phone calls to Apple support, nobody at Apple could figure this out. I was told I would have to pay Apple for the support because my iMac was not under warranty. I have searched the web on and off to try several different solutions and all except this one have failed. If others have found this, I must have missed it in the forums. I am only posting this to help anyone that has had this issue.

Downgrading the iOS is not supported. Also if you have iOS 5 beta then I assume that you are a registered developer, in which case you should be posting in the confidential developer forums : https://devforums.apple.com/index.jspa

When I try to buy a song, it says that Paypal is not supported on this device

I have purchased songs and apps on my iPad. I still have the same Paypal email address and card on my account, so I don’t understand why this would happen.

When I go to my account info in iTunes on my computer, it says that my previous purchase was unable to be charged, when between my Paypal and the bank account, I have more than enough to pay the charge(s). When I try to pay the charge. it brings me to Paypal.com to authorize iTunes for payments, but I already have been using Paypal
to make purchases with my iPad, such as apps and songs. Anyway, how do I pay the charge with Paypal? I approved iTunes for payments again, but after that, it just brought me to the iTunes website, and iTunes still has the continue option, which just brings me back to Paypal.com to approve iTunes for payments again.
