    My new computer does not show share from my old computer how long does this take?

    I'm having the same problem. I have my main Library on a WXP machine and a new W7 laptop. My iphone 4 sees the library from the W7 machine, but neither the laptop nor the iphone see the big library on the WXP machine. I have configured firewall settings, tried the network wired and wireless, using same apple id on all devices, restarted itunes on all computers, turned sharing off and on on all computers. Nothing works.

    With regard to what? I assume that since the link connected to your question was from the "How to update your iDevice" kb article, you are talking about seeing this behavior after you updated the iPad.
    So, if that's the case, it really shouldn't take but a minute or so, if it even takes that long. If this has been going on for minutes and minutes, the update process is stuck now. You can try restarting the iPad and see if the iPad behaves normally. That might be all that you need to do to set things right again. If restarting just takes you back to this page loading again, you can try rebooting the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • IPhone Restore: How long does it take?

    My iPhone needs to be restored. How long does it take to restore and then restore the iPhone from the backup?

    Hard to say, it depends on your iphone model, the data to back up and the number of apps installed adding their part of data to the backup.
    If you copy all the pictures from the camera roll before and delete the original files, it should be under one hour, close to 30min using a 3G. Also transfer your videos before you start.
    See what else is part of the backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766

  • TS3992 i have 1200 pictures to back up on iCloud.  how long does this take?

    I have just signed up for i-cloud across my i-phone 4S, i-pod and Mac.  How long should it take to back up 1200 photos from my phone?  thanks

    you run speed test on your network. But never mind that. even with knowledge of that speed and size of that backup, I will not give you precise numbers, so here is an example - if your ISP is DSL and size of the backup is 1 Gb - backup may take overnight. If your network cable- way faster, but I have seen backups over 20 gigs. Your backup size is way bigger then one.

  • I refunded the buyer, but the buyer's refund it PENDING, how long does this take?

    The title is my question. The seller paid for an item I sold him, but later decided he did not want that item and I refunded him but he has not got the refund yet. He has shown he it says "pending", how long do refunds take?  Also, these funds were all from PayPal balance.  Thanks for your time if you can provide an insight, it is very appreciated

    If he sent a bank funded Instant Transfer payment, then two things happened simultaneously:
    - PayPal sent a request to their bank for the funds for the transaction. It would take 3-7 business days for funds to arrive from their bank.
    - PayPal paid you up front instantly, so that you would not delay in processing their order.
    When refund or cancellation occurs for that payment within a few days of it being sent, the funds that PayPal paid up front are returned.
    However, the funds from their bank account are still in transit. They haven't reached their PayPal account yet.
    As soon as those funds clear, they are available for your buyer to use or withdraw.

  • HT1349 erasing iphone data, how long does it take?

    I have literally deleting data from my iphone 3G for the past 12 hours.  Is it normal to take this long or it is messed up?  Please let me know asap.

    Depending on the amount of data on your iPhone and its storage size, it can take a long time to overwrite the iPhone's data.
    Check this out -> iOS: Understanding 'Erase All Content and Settings'
    Devices that overwrite memory: Overwrites user settings and information, writing a series of ones to the data partition. This process can take several hours, depending on the storage capacity of your iPhone or iPod touch. During this time, the device displays the Apple logo and a progress bar.
    If you think there is a problem, try resetting the iPhone.

  • TS3212 After downloading, I get this message: preparing disk image. How long does this take?

    I'm trying to download the latest version of iTunes, ITunes 10.7.dmg, on my Mac OSX 10.6.6. The update is stuck and the only message I read is "Preparing the disk image". What should I do?

    I am using 6.0 theme "Reflection White" for my iDVD project.
    I have a macbook pro 1.83 GHz, I have 28 GB available on the internal hard-drive.
    I've sucessfully created a disk image once for this project in about 2 hrs or so. I then added iTunes tracks and transitions and am doing the disk image again. This time it is taking much longer. I am going to let it run for a couple of more hours.
    Have you noticed the Process Menus step take a long time? The text reads "Rendering menus (5 of 5) and menu transitions (19 of 19)". It has been this way for quite some time now.
    Thanks.

    thank you for this explanation and i agree verizon should do something nice for you!  i also had my phone unlocked and now in the only two countries i've tried i get the same message...verizon says they cannot help me b/c they do not provide support for foreign SIM Cards...unbelievable.  Anyway, since I have updated to iOS7 I do not have those options you mention.."Settings > Carrier, turn off automatic searching. In Settings > Network > Roaming, turn off International CDMA"  Any ideas for how I might get my SIM card to work?  I know it's not the card(s) as both times they work immediately and fine on my wife's AT&T iPhone 4S...thanks

  • How long does it take to complete the Lion install - freezing

    I installed it last night and it froze on me after restart. I did a reboot and it's still freezing. (i have very little experiance with this. I just downloaded from the app store. I did back up w/ time machine prior to the download/install.)
    Thanks for your help!!!!

    I was wondering if the install takes longer than it appears and if i just need to wait it out??
    Thanks!

  • How long does this take, it's been several hours. Help!

    It said 58 minutes,

    It should not be sitting there that long. Restart your system, bring up Disk Utility (on your hard drive in applications/utilities), and repair permissions. Then verify the disk. Assuming there are no errors, start the installation process again.
