Question about reinstalling v4.9 can anyone please help!?!?!
Ok, I've been having major burning problems since I downloaded v5.0 and now with v5.01 and its really annoying me. My question is this, I have version 4.9 on my old comp and it works fine. Is it possible to burn v4.9 to a disc then bring it to my new comp and download it, basically writing over 5.01, or do I have to unistall v5.01 in order to install 4.9 again?
I talked to an Apple Administrator at a local university who said 5.0 and 5.1 were garbage. He emailed me 4.9. Before I received the 4.9 I deleted 5.1 and re installed 4.0 which came with my Ipod. It worked but the problem was though, my library would not show up. If you are running windows, there is probably a directory "Itunes" in you My Music folder. Make a copy of the library files for archival use. Don't lose them because you may have to reload your music. The library is the clearing house for all your music files which are in another directory. Make sure you don't lose it either. My advice is to uninstall 5.1 and reinstall 4.9 making sure that you have backed up your library. When 4.9 reinstalled, it found the correct itunes library and I'm back in business.

For the past month or more I've encountered what I consider to be quite a serios problem with my Macbook pro. The laptop suddenly freezes without warning, the screen turns black, while the hard drive apparently stals and the system no longer responds. The only way to resolve this issues is to restart the computer via a hard reset. After restarting, an error message box shows up asking me to report the error, which I've already done on numerous occassions. The problem occurs at a frequency of 1 every 2-3 days, sometimes more often than that. The error message that comes up is very complicated but contains some key words amongst which includes "kernel." This makes me believe that it's an issue with the video card, and was wondering how I can remediate this problem so as to get the normal function of my laptop back. If anyone can be of any help, I would greatly appreciate it.

i was trying to put music to my iPhone, but my iTunes don't recognize my iPhone. I tried to restart my iPhone, iMac, reinstalled iTunes..but still not working. can anyone please help?
This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes or iPhone forums.

Hi everyone, I need some help big time. I was currently running the IOS 6.0.1 on my iphone 4 and I could sync and transfer music to my phone via my iTunes account. But I updated my phone to the new IOS 6.1 and now I can not transfer music onto my iphone, all it does is tries to sync the songs but it doesn't. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes back onto my laptop yet it still does not work. Can anyone please help me.
Everything is Sorted!
The release of iTunes 11.0.2 and iOS 6.1.2 for my iPhone 4, seems to have sorted everything. I can now sync music, films and photos between my MacBook and my phone.
I was dubious about blindly doing the updates but decided they couldn't really mess up any further functionality so I went for it and it's sorted now.
Look in to, and take the gamble, it's up to you. -
After several attempts to get some help from Apple, it has become clear to me that my i phone 4 has no options within accessibility to reduce the motion picture.
I have a serious problem with the new software but unfortunatly i cannot go backwards with this update. Apple for obvious reasons will not advise any downgrading options. Can anyone please help me? Is there a third party option here. I do not want to pay for a new phone or replace the i phone as i run a mac,desktop and i pad... !! Thank you.Giansh2006 wrote:
I don't quite understand why you have asked me about why I'm keeping my URL secret?
It's only that I'm not clear why you are reluctant to post it. If you have a podcast in the iTunes Store then it's there for the world to see - they might search on its subject or title, for example, even if they don't actually know about it from you. If you look at other posts in this forum you will see that usually people post their URLs and then I can examine the feed and hopefully find out from that what the problem is. Without this information no-one can give you anything more than wild guesses.
If you are still reluctant to post the details and want to have a bash at diagnosing the problem yourself you may find my web pages helpful:

I change my apple ID and password like a week now and after changing all my information and MY apple ID, i noticed that i lost all my picture in my camer roll and my photo stream too ;(.. Can anyone please help me how to bring it back all my photos?
I don't know about your camera roll, but for photostream just do this:
Go into Settings > iCloud > Delete Account and then sign back in using your Apple ID information.
Make sure to do the same thing with your iTunes and App Store options.

IBook flashing solid colors and goes black. Can anyone please help?
Hi there,
My 14-inch iBook has been flashing solid colors (green, red, blue, three different kinds of white) before going black for about a minute, and then start flashing again. I tried restarting repeatedly, and sometimes the normal screen would appear for about 1 minute before flashing colors again.
Can anyone please help?
iBook G4Most likely its a problem with your logic board, specifically, the video memory. Apple has admited to this problem for the G3 ibook after a class action lawsuit was filed. My ibook, a g4 933mhz, which was made shortly after the computers that were part of this lawsuit has the problem. I stupidly paid apple $300 to fix the problem, because they told me that as long as the damage was not caused by me, then it could be fixed for $300. After i paid them and they shipped the laptop to their repair center, they called bacl to say that my logic board was damaged because i had spilled something on my keyboard, and that it would cost $700 to fix. I told them to ship it back, and of course they charged me $300 for nothing. I then tested the keyboard and inspected the laptop for this alleged "water damage" and found nothing. Apple offered no recourse to dispute their findings, and said that there were no problems with my laptops logic board that they were responsible for, despite the online petition having been signed over 700 times. They said that i could pay them an additional $70-$80 to have the apple store take my laptop apart and verify the water damage, and that it didnt guarentee anything, it would just make my case for demanding that the laptop be repaired stronger. Also, even though they orginally said that i had spilled something on the keyboard to cause the damage, when i told them that the keyboard was functioning, they said that i must have placed the laptop in water.
Here is the link to the online petition http://www.petitiononline.com/ibookg4/petition.html . Good luck with your laptop, obviously, unless yours is still under warrenty, i dont recommend sending it to apple for repairs. I should also note that they did originally think that my laptop was part of the problem batch when i brought it to the store, but after they checked the serial number and determined that it was not, then mysteriously the damage was caused by me, and they pocketed my $300. -
I had an PC crash while backing-up my iPhone4, before installing iOs7.
Now I am unable to restore the iPhone.
Can anyone please help me!
Arjen RonhaarHey Arjen Ronhaar,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues updating your iPhone to iOS 7. If you have not already done so, you may want to restart or reset the iPhone:

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, you'll want to restore your iPhone in recovery mode with iTunes:

Can anyone please help with the 2.3 update in UK?
Can anyone please help? I have an unbranded x10 in the UK. PC companion constantly tells me my phone software is up to date (with android 2.1) so I cannot upgrade to 2.3. I've tried all the tips on the SE support page like deleting the database content and looking for the setting to update the phone next time it's connected which doesn't exist (very informative SE!). I'm not keen on this independent software installation through the rapidshare download, it seems full of glitches looking at the forums. http://www.sonyericsson.com/update/?lc=en&cc=gb&pid=xperiax10 This link clearly tells us the update is available through PC companion, no joy for me though. Any help is welcome.
Have a look at this and check your version number see if its listed

I was using my iPad 3 awhile ago when it just blacked out and now it won't start. Can anyone please help me fix it?
Assuming that the battery isn't empty (and it can take up to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
