Restore at every update

Every time I do a software update on my phone, I have get an error message and then it says that the phone must be restored. That's very annoying, but on top of that it usually says the back up files can't be used for whatever reason. One from July is the one that usually works (I've had my phone replaced twice for this reason, thinking it might be the phone). Now, if it's my fault, I don't know what I could be doing wrong, as I am just following the directions iTunes gives me. Has anyone else had this problem? It's given me an awful experience with my phone. If it means anything, I have the EDGE model.

if the phone did not do a complete restore or did not complete the update, those files are probably corrupted. which ver are you restoring to 2.0.2 or previous ver?

Sqlite3.dll to be restored in every update

When i recive an update oplà! sqlite3.dll is delated in c:\program files(X86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support. Why Apple doesn't correct this bug? I always have to restore sqlite3.dll in the correct folder. I aspect a solution from Apple. My S.O. is windows 7 64 bit. Thankyou.
Apple correct it!! I don't need an answer but a solution.

Used to have the exact same problem; the progress bar would always freeze when I was updating and I'd have to disconnect the phone and then restore it. But now, I turn off my firewall, anti-virus and spyware software when I update and it completes just fine. I guess all we need to do is leave our computers unprotected so Apple can load whatever they want on them.

I tried updating my iPod, and ever since it has not worked at all. If I hold in the lock & home button, it will tell me to plug it into iTunes. Once I do that, it says it will restore but every time, restoring it fails. My iPod is not working at all, and I really have no idea what to do. It is just a black screen, and occasionally the white apple will appear as if it were turning on, but it won't turn on. I just need some suggestions on what to do!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I am getting error (-1) while updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1. The phone has gone into a recovery mode. Restore fails every time at "restoring the firmware" stage. Striped bar remains for a long time, then shows "error (-1)" and the restore fails. Help!

I am getting error (-1) while updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1. The phone has gone into a recovery mode. Restore fails every time at "restoring the firmware" stage. Striped bar remains for a long time, then shows "error (-1)" and the restore fails. I have been doing it for last 12 hours. Help!

Thanks for your reply Michalo. I am in India and here Apple care does not work on Sundays. I have been without my phone for the entire day. Perhaps tomorrow will bring some respite. There is not solution to "error (-1)" on any forum it seems. I found one forum which suggested use of Tiny Umbrella. Any idea about that?

MSE Creates A Restore Point Every Time It Updates

MSE creates a redundant restore point every time it updates.
Is there any way to stop this from happening without
disabling the system from creating restore points entirely?
Thanks.

Thanks.
The HD is 500GB. I think by default 2% or 10GB is reserved for restore points. Once the limit is reached the restore points are overwritten - last in, first out. I have a preferred restore point established that I'd like to be preserved.
My concern is the way in which Windows Update is used to update MSE definitions. Everytime (daily) MSE AV definitions are D/L it creates another restore point. Eventually it will overwrite the restore point I established. I guess I can always remove the restore points MSE creates using CCleaner or use a different AV program but it's something that should have been addressed by MS. They should have provided users with the option of not having MSE create restore points. I know I can always turn the feature off altogether and create restore points manually but there are times when having a restore point created automatically can come in handy - like when installing a program for example.
Aside from this issue I've also noticed other little annoyances throughout the Windows 7 / 64bit - Home Premium OS.
I'm sure I'll discover more annoyances with this OS over time.

IPad Folders VANISH and Apps scattered with every update or restore

With the introduction of folders for iOS there has been an issue since DAY ONE! New devices (upgrades), restoring from backups, and iOS updates ALL screw up your folders. I have spent HOURS sorting though my 400+ apps and putting them into folders (BTW the current iTunes UI does not work well when you have MANY apps...I have a feeling that all tests are done with a handful of apps and does not reflect the average user with hundreds of apps)
With every update or restore, the Folder information is all lost and apps are scattered onto 20+ pages of apps. Some folders remain but all but 2 apps remain in them. Some pages are created with only 2-3 apps on them. No mater what I do, there is no fix. Someone on the Apple Care Senior Tech Support said it happens to her all the time and that it is "expected".
I know this isn't NEW to anybody because the Apple support community is LOADED with similar complaints. I have included links below. It is obvious that it is a BUG with iOS and needs to be addressed please. I was told by the Apple Care support person that the only solution would be to bombard you with the complaint. It seems like support has been bombarded all ready yet there isn't any communication going on between the two units.
Please ADDRESS. I will not install any more updates until the problem is fixed.

Did you put the iPad into Recovery Mode? Follow the steps in this Apple support document:
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
It could be an internal hardware failure though, as the Apple technician explained. While not common these things do happen. If that's the case you options are to replace the iPad with an identical model using the Out of Warranty replacement process and paying the $299 fee or purchase a new replacement iPad.

FTP credentials dumped on every update - so annoying.

Yes, what fun.
Everytime you install a handy Muse update it wants you to save the project again. No not with the same name, adobe suggests you give it a new name. OK! so I add a B, then a C, and a D after the name. Good move.
Then you go to do an FTP upload and your saved and secure ftp credentials are thrown away. WHY THANKS ADOBE - I love digging out my safe and secure passwords and access info again and again and again.... Every time YOU issue an update you DUMP my upload access info!!!!
A major pain that has been there for over a year. That "save your credentials" is almost useless as is the complicated process they put you through to supposedly restore it.
Ughhh! Just one of many fun bugs in an otherwise potentially fine piece of software

I have the same problem. I maintain a number of sites using Muse and the re-entering of supposedly "saved" information with every update is something that I dearly wish would be permanently fixed.

Ipad mini will not restore after ios update 7.1.2

Hi Community,
I recieved a message last night about the update 7.1.2 for my ipad mini. I left my ipad on overnight while plugged in while it was updating. i woke up this morning seeing my ipad must be connected to itunes. I connect my ipad to itunes and it must be restored. Every time i try to restore and update the ipad from itunes i get the error code 3004. I have tried hard resetting the ipad, re-downloading the latest version of itunes, and disconnecting and reconnected the usb plug.

Hello, Ronald.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here are the steps that I would recommend going through when experiencing error 3004.
Resolve network errors
Related errors: 17, 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194, 3000, 3002, 3004, 3013, 3014, 3015, 3194, 3200, or "There was a problem downloading the software," or say the "device isn't eligible for the requested build.". These alerts mean that your computer is either having difficulty contacting the Apple update server or communicating with your device.
Check your computer for software or settings that might cause communication issues between your computer and Apple or between your computer and your device.

Why does my iPhone 4 get slower with every update? (iPod app special)

When i tab ipod and then movies i almost have to wait longer than with my old iPhone 3G. And it get worst with every update. ***? I am thinking about downdating to 3.something then my iPhone 4 was really quick.

Here is my update on this issue. This isn't normal. I spoke to several tech support people, sr tech support people, etc and we found out that somehow my battery was damaged during the update. They found this out by sending me a diagnostic file via sms. I was sent into the apple store to replace my phone. I had it a little under a year, with 40 days left on my warranty. When I went to the store I was able to show the rep at the store the issue described in this thread. He just scratched his head. It was a quick swap. I spent a lot of time trying to fix this issue. I tried everything. Removing itunes_control files, several restores, starting from scratch. I could duplicate the issue every time. It's a bug and I'm sure it will be addressed. If you are still under warranty, I would recommend getting it checked by an apple tech to see if it messed up your battery and perhaps get it replaced. Battery issues on these devices cause lots of problems.

I tried downloading the iOS8 to my iPod 5th generation and when it finished downloading it shut down completely and it said there was an error and no the iPod is in recovery mode. What can I do to restore it and update it? Please, I need help.

Hello,
I recently tried downloading the IOS8 to my iPod 5th generation and when it was almost done the computer said there was an error. Right after that, the iPod shut down completely and now it's on recovery mode. I plugged it in and it said that I had to restore it and update it so I could use it again but it doesn't let me. What can I do? I even did a backup before the update.
I really need help.

What happens when you connect to computer and restore via iTunes?
Without knowing that:
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.

ok so the download problem with my iphone.. what could be the cause of that? ive restarted and deleted the "undownloaded app" over 10 times already. and restarted the iphone 10 times... next thing i know i cant install itunes on my laptop.... geez man..
obviously there is a fix which someone will help... but why should i have to go through all that crap to install a so called uncomplicated software... when you think about it this really shouldnt even be an issue.
normally if the thing dosent work. normally with most programs you just uninstall the uncompleted software and just reinstall and everything is usually good to go.. help!

ive never had any problems with ap[ple products in the past... this is a first and a stupid problem if you ask me

How do i get my norton toolbar with firefox 21, it has all my user names and passwords. I have downloaded every update from Norton. Can I go back to 20?

automatic update disables norton toolbar. it has all usernames and passwords saved in it. Every time Firefox updates it is not compatible with Norton Toolbar. When will this patch be available. If not in the next day, how do i go back to firefox 20 which is compatible

The problem with Firefox updates is that before Comcast or Norton get their ducks in a row and get the Norton Toolbar working, there's another update from Firefox and we're back in the same boat.
Why can't these people work together with every update? I realize the browser is free, but if you want us to use it, it would be nice to get everything ready to work properly with the Norton Toolbar prior to updates. Firefox is a great tool, as is the Norton Toolbar, but tools are no good if we don't have the right ones.

After I did the update it deleted my phone contacts :( trying to restore but itunes only has memory of last restore yesterday when update was done.smhh

After I did the update it deleted my phone contacts trying to restore but itunes only has memory of last restore yesterday when update was done.smhh

Yes all contacts checked and getting pop up message that says "your contacts, calendars,& bookmarks are being synced with ICloud over the air, so it isn't necessary to synch these items using itunes. icloud sync can be configured using your devices mail, contacts & calendar settings".
I have that setting as referenced above and only contacts showing are the 9 contacts I renetered manually today after losing all 3oo contacts. I then restored my iphone back to orinail and still no contacts. Please help

On every update I have done, it deletes my playlist, does anyone know how to prevent this?

Every update I have done has resulted in my losing my playlist. I was happy to see yesterday after I did the update my playlists were all still there, but my joy was a little premature because when I went to listen to my music this morning, all of my playlists were gone and all of the music on my phone had the circle next to it like it had to be downloaded. Very Very frustrating.

I have had this happen as well. What I had to do was sync the iPod to remove the album and the resync the album back to the Classic. I've had this happen with my iPhones as well. Must be a bug in either the current OS or iTunes versions.
