    You can't. The iPhone 3G can only go as high as iOS 4.2.1. It hardware does not suport a higher iOS.

    if you want an intelligent answer, you'll have to provide intelligent information.
    WHY couldn't you restore the order backup?  Was there an error message?  What EXACTLY was the error message?

  • Please help after updating my iphone 4 to ios 5.01 I cannot make phone calls or receive phone calls anymore. I am so annoyed first battery and now can't make calls!

    Please help after updating my iphone 4 to ios 5.01 I cannot make phone calls or receive phone calls anymore, please help, I am so annoyed first battery and now can't make calls!

    The same thing is happening with my wife's iPhone 4 and we can't figure it out. When placing a call, the screen freezes and she needs to restart the entire phone.
    She upgraded to 5.01 this morning over the air while it was plugged in. Immediately afterwards, this problem started happening. We've tried restarting the phone several times and plugged in to iTunes but there's nothing she can do do to fix it.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

  • Please help. ipod will not show up and i have tried everything

    i got my ipod two days ago. ipod nano 4gb.
    when i plug it into my computer it comes up with 'do not disconnect' and occasionally a small circle icon in the top left-hand corner. the computer recognises that there is a 'mass storage device' connected, but the ipod doesnt appear in itunes or my computer.
    when i unplug the ipod it displays the apple symbol and then goes to the language selection menu. after i disconnect it i also get a message saying that the file could not be saved to the drive because it was interrupeted or something like that and i should try storing it somewhere else.
    so thinking that maybe this was it being updated, i let it plugged in all day while i was at school because surely that would be plenty of time for anything to load onto it. But when i got home today it did the same thing.
    I have two computers and the same thing happens on both.
    I have tried it using my sisters usb cable, still nothing works.
    Any ideas? Oh on one of my computers it doesnt let me uninstall itunes as well.
    And when I try to open the updater to restore the ipod it freezes the application and i have to do controlaltdelete and close it.
    I am SO angry about it right now.
    Since i only bought it a few days ago do you think i could get a repleacement from the store where i got it or will i have to go all the way through apple.
    I havnt been able to use it once and it is making me very frustrated, please help me if you have any ideas.

    Sally,
    OK since you using 2 computers, we will first focus on the one that will not uninstall iTunes, afterwareds we will get the ipod working on one PC first.
    On the PC that will not uninstall iTUnes, goto control panel>add and remove and try if you can to uninstall iTUnes AND quicktime. Then go here and roll down to "Clean up iTunes installer files on the computer" http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
    Once done disable any antivirus or security programs, then goto apple.com to download and install the latest iTUnes.
    Also on BOTH pcs make sure you have "ipod updater 06-28-2006" you can download and install it here http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
    Once iTunes is properly installed on this PC, you need to only connect your nano to the main PC you use for now so we can get it working, then we'll focus on the other PC if needed

  • Please help - Ipod freezes when playing any video

    Hi
    I only got my ipod video a day ago and it wont play any video files. Everytime i go to play a video it freezes and just shows a black screen. I have tried downloading a music video from the itunes store and this wont work either. When i first got it i did play one video, im not sure if this was before i updated the firmware though?
    I cannot figure out how to reset the firmware if this is what i need to do?
    I would really appreciate some advice.
    Thanks in advance.

    I just got my iPod like two months ago and it wouldn't play any video podcast until I downloaded the new iTunes software. Now it plays some video podcasts but not all. I tried to watch some new podcasts I had downloaded from iTunes and it would play some of it then just freeze and make these wierd sounds. I tried again and it totally froze where I couldn't do anything, not even turn it off. It stayed that way until the battery was completely drained then it turned itself off later that night. The next morning I charged it up and it worked fine but I still can't watch those podcasts. Please help, cause this thing is pretty much brand new and for the amount of money I spent on it I don't want it to start giving me problems after only two months.

  • PLEASE HELP - Ipod Showing In My Comp But Not Itunes Etc

    Hi there
    Can someone PLEASE help me! I am at my wits end with my Ipod.
    A few weeks ago I was in the middle of listening to a song and my ipod crashed then switched itself off. Ever since then I haven't been able to get it to connect to Itunes or the Updater and it won't play anything.
    When I switch the ipod on I get various errors ranging from the unhappy ipod to the folder with the exclamation mark.
    When I connect my ipod to my pc an autoplay window appears and sometimes I get an error saying the drive my ipod is connected to isn't formatted.
    So far I have tried the following
    Reinstalled Itunes
    Going into Disk Management and changing the Drive the ipod uses
    Reset The Ipod
    Tried Using Another USB Port
    Put the Ipod Into Disk Mode
    Nothing Works! After I changed the drive the ipod uses things looked promising. The Ipod was detected by the updater and it was started to restore the ipod however after a few minutes the ipod seemed to lose the connection and I got the error with the Battery icon.
    Can someone please help me!

    "my dad pressed view and then he chose the 3rd picture thing and songs went into."
    Sorry, I don't know what that means.
    Have you had a chance to look through these?
    USB drivers are not installed properly or are out of date.

  • PLEASE HELP, Ipod corrupt

    I have a whole list of events that happened, but the worst part is, my ipod still will not work with my itunes. Here's my story (i'm trying to put in as much detail as possible for hope that somebody can help):
    I have a 30GB 5th generation Ipod video, and I use windows XP. I've had this Ipod for about 2 months and it worked great using Itunes 7.0 and 7.0.1.
    I updated to Itunes 7.0.2 and the next time I plugged in my ipod, the itunes didn't recognize it, nor did my computer. I went through a series of steps with an apple agent, including renaming the disk drive letter, and finally my Ipod would be recognized. Everytime the ipod was plugged in however, this "autorun" program began to run. It So eventually when the autorun would stop, it kept saying "This ipod may be corrupt. Restore it, or try disconnecting and reconnecting it". Once I got this message that said "an unknown error has occured [1418]. I've uninstalled and reinstalled itunes, and nothing seems to work.
    So I restored it. And then it restarts, and once again I get the same message over and over again. I keep restoring it and it doesn't work. So the agent told me to send it to apple for repairs.
    So apple sends it back saying nothing was wrong with the Ipod. But it still keeps saying it is corrupted on itunes.
    So I talk to another apple agent, and we go through another series of steps, and now the Ipod is not recognized by itunes anymore. I downloaded itunes 6.0 which wouldn't work with my existing libraries, so I went back to the original 7.0 and it still doesn't work.
    PLEASE HELP ME i'm dying without my ipod!

    This program http://www.copytrans.net/doctor.php may fix it up.

  • Please Help- IPod Classic and Mac/Itunes

    Hi all,
    I'm new here because I have a bit of a problem. Please forgive me for my lack of general computer/Ipod knowledge...
    I purchased my MacBook about 4 1/2 years ago. I'm not sure exactly what model I have, but the age should help you determine that.
    I also purchased my Ipod about 5 years ago. I think it's the first "video" Ipod that came out. It's 40 Gig, white, and pretty basic.
    I've taken exquisite care of my Ipod because I'm just interested in putting my new CD's on it, and taking it with me in the car so I don't have to lug around 40 CD's all the time.
    Anyway, for the last 2 years or so, my process of putting new music on my IPod was as follows:
    1. Open Itunes
    2. Import CD
    3. Hook Ipod up to the USB port (my Ipod is not synched)
    4. Click and highlight the new CD and drag it to my Ipod
    5. After updating, disconnect my Ipod
    6. Delete CD off of Itunes libary
    This has gone off without a hitch for quite some time.
    The other day, I went through this exact process, as I've purchased a new CD, but I had an issue.
    After I plugged my Ipod in, Itunes recognized it, as usual. But, on the Ipod screen, it continued to flash "do not disconnect." After a half hour of waiting, it didn't go away. I tried to drag the new songs to my Ipod like usual, and then disconnect, but to no avail.
    In the past, when I hooked up my Ipod, after about 20 seconds, the "Do Not Disconnect" screen would disappear, and take me to my main menu (on the Ipod).
    Now, that screen doesn't turn off, and I can't get new songs onto the device.
    Please help...I'm not very good with any of this, and would very much like to hear my new music.
    Thanks for your help!
    Jeff

    hold the menu and middle buttons down together until the screen on the ipod goes blank. that restarts it then try your normal process again

  • HELP - iPod Update Problem

    Just joined the Forum after reading some of the posts here - you guys seem to know alot more about this than me so any help is greatly appreciated.
    My 30Gb 5th Gen iPod has software version 1.2.3. iTunes tells me there is a version 1.3 available but when I try to update it I get an unknown error message (1417).
    I've been through the support pages and have done the 5 R's as recommended but my iPod won't restore - not even to the early version. I get an unknown error message (1418) when I try to restore.
    On trying to just synch the iPod without updating the software iTunes tells me that my PC is not authorised to play over 100 tracks and it has now removed them from my iPod even after I have signed in to authorise my computer over 30 times when the messages appear!!
    This is the only computer I have used to update my iTunes and iPod for over 2 years now and it is running fine. I've had no problems until now and usually update every 2 - 3 months.
    I need help to get my iPod updated to the latest software and to get my iPod / iTunes to recognise that my computer is authorised to play the music.
    Help please - I've been trying to get this thing to work for hours!!
    Cheers, Al

    Thanks Jeff but I've been through these steps on two or three occasions before I joined the forum and they haven't done any good.
    The other reply tells me to re-format the iPod.
    Is this a good idea or would I just be left with a (semi) useless portable drive?
    If I were to consider this would I do it through "My Computer" and format the drive or explore the drive and just delete all the content?
    I don't want to do anything that'll be un-recoverable. Let's face it I am still able to use the iPod at the moment and although I've lost access to 100 songs I still have over 3000 songs to keep me going! All I really want to do is update the software and keep it updated.
    Another thread suggested the removal of iTunes and iPod updater software from the PC and then re-installation. Any views on that solution?

  • Please help, iPod Nano and iTunes issues

    1. I can't update my iPod Product Red. I've downloaded the update, and when I click "update" in iTunes, it just sits there for hours saying its updating
    2. The first time I start windows, connect my iPod Nano and then start iTunes (or even the other way around, start itunes then connect ipod), my nano doesn't show up in itunes. I need to restart the service after plugging in the nano every single time!
    3. I cant restore my iPod Nano either, the same problem with the updating my ipod, the progress screen just goes back and forth for hours without doing anything, infact my nano just seems like it looses synch during both an update and a restore, because the do not disconnect message on the screen goes away once either update or restore process is started.
    Please help! This is my first ipod purchase and so far it is really disappointing me and frustrating, thanks

    I have an 32 GB iPod touch, and I am trying to update to ios 6.  I currently have 5.1.1.

Can someone please help me?!
