Still having trouble since attempting 3.1.3 Update

Further to my reply to "_cannot update iphone 3g with new os_" (which I have included below) I have found another post which showed me the difference between Recovery mode and DFU. I've tried this but have no idea if I have been following the instructions correctly. I have no idea if the iPhone is on or off and the only time it's icon disappears from iTunes is when I press both wake/sleep & Home together, but that doesn't really follow the instructions correctly.
I just want the latest version, working. Is there a way to try and download the latest version and try again? I can't seem to find that option in iTunes. As I'm not sure if I'm following the instructions for DFU and what to do afterwards, I'm at a lost there as well.
Help?
"I've having the same problem here and await any help.
I am running windows Vista, have the latest iTunes (9.0.3.15), and have just tried to upgrade. I did Sync before trying to upgrade so luckily I haven't lost too much, what ever happens in the end.
After my original attempt, I was told that there was an error "6" and that I needed to restore (I think, that was several hours ago and I have had further messages after) I pressed restore and a vicious cycle began. To explain, I've re-started the computer and iTunes. I have plugged in the iPhone after the re-start and received a message from iTunes saying that it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode and that it needs to be restored. I press "Ok" and the only option presented by iTunes is "Restore". I have clicked Ok and Restore several times now with the same result. ITunes talks to the iPhone, installs Software and Firmware, checks and confirms the installation, says it was successful and that the iPhone is shutting down and restarting and not to disconnect from the computer. This is where the iPhone shuts down for a little time and iTunes tells me it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode and that it will need to be restored, again. From here, the cycle starts again.
In addition to this, I have tried manually restarting and resetting the iPhone by pressing the Sleep/wake button with no luck and I have attempted to reset by pressing the sleep/wake button and the Home button as per the instructions found here in the support area.
Can anyone here help with any suggestions, or where else I can ask for help?"

Ok, I revisited Restoring while in DFU as the Iphone screen started to so the "connect to iTunes" image (This wasn't happening before so I thought I would give in another go. After eight hours of getting more frustrated, my phone is back and appears to be working again
I did take the time to save my downloaded Applications and Ringtones before I removed and reinstalled iTunes. Now that everything is working again I have copied them back into their respective folders. iTunes hasn't found them yet, so I can't reload them onto my iPhone. What file does the iTunes use to tell it what files or locations to look at. I have saved all (I think) previous files and I was hoping if I copy the old file back, iTunes will behave like it was before all of this Hoohaa. If that makes any sense

Still having trouble sending mail after Yosemite software update!!

It worked for a few days after I installed the update, but it's now having the same issue all over again with outgoing mail. Infuriating!

Hello champsanmarcos,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with outgoing in message in Mail for Yosemite. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice for the issue you are experiencing:
Mail (Yosemite): If you can’t send messages
If the Send button is dimmed in the toolbar of your message, or your message can’t be sent using the outgoing mail server, try these suggestions.
Make sure the outgoing (SMTP) mail server is specified as directed by the provider of your email account. For more information, see Verify an account’s outgoing mail server.
If a dialog states that you need permission to send a message, your account uses parental controls. For more information, see Request permission to send messages.
Choose Window > Connection Doctor, then follow instructions displayed in the Details column.
If there’s a firewall problem, verify that firewall software isn’t blocking email traffic on port 25, 465, or 587. Also check whether you’re affected by another firewall, such as software installed separately from OS X or built into an Internet sharing router, or administered by your account provider. Contact the appropriate person for information.
You may be able to send messages from only a certain location, or your account provider may allow you to send messages but with stricter settings (such as requiring a name and password). Contact your provider, then change the outgoing mail server settings in Mail preferences as needed.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
BobbyD

Are people still having trouble with iPhone/HP Laptops?

Since I've had my Envy I've had no end of trouble with getting it and the iPhone to play nice. Any my search continues. So far, I have updated every bios, reinstalled Windows 7/iTunes many times, have restored the iPhone far more times than I care to remember and I am STILL having troubles with this thing. Having got through the Syncing issues with the PM55 chipset and iPhone I can now sync with my laptop. However all is not well as it would seem that I cannot sync my photo's. It doesn't matter if I have 0gb, 15gb or 30gb free, iTunes is telling me that there is not enough memory available. This error seems like an old one and there is even some info in the Apple KB but after following all that I still can't get it to sync my photo's.
Some info on my setup:
HP Envy 15 (all the latest drivers installed, bios F.24) Core i7-820, 8gb ram etc.
iPhone 32gb, ver 3.1.3
iTunes (whatever the latest one is)
I should add that I can sync my iPhone with an identical install of intunes on my vintage Quad core desktop PC, but as I use my Laptop a lot more (and have all my media, email, and contacts etc on it) I would prefer to sync to it.
Is there anything that I can do? Its very frustrating to have blown $4k on this equipment and it doesn't work...

Well I tried deleting the photocache but alas, no luck. I also tried syncing with just the photo's enabled, and it worked! So then I enabled my other media and that copied across too! I thought I was on a bit of a roll here, but now whenever I try and sync it will do one of 3 things:
iTunes will crash.
iTunes will indicate that there is not enough memory on the device (+9GB free)
iTunes will remove the iPhone from the sidebar (and my computer/disk management) even though it will continue to charge.
Interesting point to note is that it works fine (cable/iphone/itunes/media library) on my desktop and macbook. Still really disappointed that I cannot get these two to cooperate. Also still haven't got any contacts from outlook but that may not be related?

Sony just isn't helping me. I'm still having trouble transferring my NX3 video files.

Well, I'm still having trouble transferring my NX3 video files to my editing software. Sony suggested using the Sony Content Browser but that doesn't work. Sony just can't seem to help me. If the scene shot on the card is longer than 10 minutes, 4 frames of audio is lost from each file. So if you shoot 60 minutes straight (say a wedding, you loose audio every 10 minutes) I guess this doesn't sound important, unless it happens just as the bride is saying "Yes" in her vows.
My original post is as follows:
Sony NXCAM (NX-3) drops audio tracks when importing into FCPX and Premiere.
I called Sony on Feb 13, 2015. I spoke with Doug (case no. 661972). I've been using my NX-3 for about 3 months. I'm still testing Sony NX-3. Looking for a way to transfer the video and audio without dropping audio frames. I didn't catch it at first, I mean it's only a few audio frames. It seems to happen with files over 12 minutes shooting. It seems that I can't upload the video/audio shot in my NX-3 to either my iMac (using FCPX nor Premiere) nor can I upload it to my PC (using Premiere) without 3 to 6 audio "frames" being dropped. When I spoke with Doug at Sony, a person I've actually spoke with in the past, he seemed frustrated. I was speaking with him as a professional and was attempting to find a solution, he was being protective and wanted to place blame at other companies. He stated that the camera played back the files correctly so it isn't a Sony problem. I explained that it is a problem for all of us if we choose Sony as our purchase. He told me "you should all buy Canons next time." That kind of through me. How do you speak to that. I explained that I am just looking for a solution and he told me to call the software and computer companies. Doesn't Sony realize that just because the camera works, that isn't the end of the road. You need to put the video into a devise to edit the video. I asked him what software would he recommend to a professional to use to edit footage taken by the Sony, he no reply. All I received from Doug was a really bad feeling about Sony. I've been a Sony "shooter" for over 34 years. I still can't believe the way I was treated. Not sure now what path I will take with this. But I surely need to tell everyone (all of my associates who have been asking me how I like my new camera) what response I received from Sony. Buy a Canon. By the way, I asked if Sony might have another camera of the same type that didn't drop audio. Doug didn't know. Really strange. Is Doug not happy with his prosition with Sony?

Auto Correct:
As far as I'm aware this cannot be turned off. Someone may prove me wrong on this point
CDDB Update:
Again, as far as I'm aware this cannot be done. You could use WMP to update the files then import them into iTunes.
Music Deletion:
iTunes seems to only ask you if you want to delete a file if the file is located in its library folder. In the Preferences>Advanced>General section try changing your iTunes Music Folder to the folder where all your music is stored and it should ask you if you want to move files to the recycle bin when you delete them.
Library Update:
This is a feature I with iTunes would introduce. When you delete or move a file iTunes loses track of it. What it needs to be able to do is first check to see that all the existing files in the library are still there, and remove the ones that aren’t, then it needs to search for new tracks.
It can search for new tracks but if you have renamed a file, then it will be in the library twice, one is the old file (which will no longer play because it doesn’t exist) and the other is the new file.
The way I now avoid iTunes annoyances in relation to file names and folder organisation is I let iTunes sort it all out for me. Selecting "Keep iTunes Music folder organised" and "Copy files to iTunes folder when adding to library" will get iTunes to sort your music into Artist folders, then within the Artist folders are Albums, then within the album folders are the actual files, which are named Track Number Artist. For example Coldplay - Clocks will be named 05 Clocks.mp3.
WARNING: Selecting "Keep iTunes Music folder organised" will copy all the music in your library to the iTunes Music folder. You must have enough Hard Disk space to do this.
...that wound up longer then I thought it would. Hope you can make sense of it all.
Cheers,
Ben

Hi,
This question's not as crucial as my other post. Is everyone else still having trouble logging in, and getting that error message.

Thank you.

First, I've never asked you to "give me a Solved" because that is a violation of the Terms of Use. Second, I don't recall getting angry with you about anything. I don't even know you.

Does iDVD word with Yosemite? Having trouble since I upgraded to it.

Does iDVD work with Yosemite? Having trouble since I upgraded to it two weeks ago.

When you say iTunes 10 do you mean 10.5.3. If not, upgrade to it.
If trying different USB ports, even a number of times, does not solve your problem then look at this link. If you are not using Windows then search for something comparable.

Hi cheperrumps,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Uninstalling or reinstalling the iTunes application won't affect your music (data) -- but it's always a good idea to have a backup!
The information below will show you how to do that and to troubleshoot your issue with iTunes:

Hi, I don't think I've done that for a few years, but what exact version was it you installed?
Is this an Intel iMac, or a PPC iMac?
At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac.
Then click on More Info>Hardware and report this upto but not including the Serial#...

Pehaps more important, what exact problems are you having Kim?

Any other iPhone owners still having trouble with AMDS?

Even with the new iTunes update, AMDS didn't install. I managed to get AMDS installed independently with someone's method of copying new directory and registry files, but it's still not allowing the driver software to be updated on my iPhone. Anyone else out there just having problems with AMDS in general?

Good gracious. Are you "Kate" from over there in the comments section? (I'm Tony, by the way.)
I'm a bit worried that this might be related to the issue with your USBport.inf file that popped up in the sfc /scannow results from last year. The .inf files contain instructions on how a driver needs to be installed.
It might at this point be worth attempting the procedures described from the document we following on the scannow on fixing files that scannow cannot repair.
[How to use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files on Windows Vista or on Windows 7|http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833]
(The one issue I'm worried about with that is the result from the scannow run that suggested that there might be an issue with your System Restore. I don't want to get you into a situation where you can restore if everything turns to custard for us.)

Still having trouble"Custom" Persissions

Sorry if I duplicate, as I posted this as a reply to a closed question and wasn't sure if it would be answered.
I have followed all the discussions and fixed up the "Custom" permissions on my Startup drive, 3 Partitioned drives, and External Firewire drive, BUT my external Firewire WD 1Tb drive that I use for Time Machine will NOT toe the line! I have followed all the commands suggested by V.K. And still have a padlck on my drive.
I have done :
sudo chflags nouchg /Volumes/"Terrasaur"
sudo chmod 775 /Volumes/""Terrasaur"
to no avail
and
chflags -R nouchg /Volumes/Terrasaur
chmod -RN /Voumes/Terrasaur
chmod 775 /Volumes/Terrasaur
No change!
Here is some data that MAY help.

The disk "Terrasaur" is the one I'm having trouble with.
Can anyone help please?

that's the problem. eject that drive. then enter the following in Finder commandshiftg. In the resulting popup enter /Volumes
This will open a finder window for /Volumes directory which is normally hidden. all your drives should be there. the real drives look like aliases. but there should also be a couple of fake Terrasaur drives. they will look like actual folder. Delete them. If there is some stuff inside that you might need copy them somewhere first. now mount the real Terrasaur drive and rerun the terminal commands to unlock it.
