Tried to sync to new itunes and now my phone is stuck in emergency call mod
Okay, Ive tried for hours and need help! I tried to update my 3G to the new itunes. Since then doing so, im getting an error message that reads "We cannot complete your iTunes store request. The network connection times out." I trouble shooted and followed all the prompts it said to fix the issue, have unplugged and restarted, and now the only thing the stupid phone does is give me the "emergency call" screen! I set it to factory settings before downloading the new software.. Haven't seen another screen for hours! I'm getting frustrated.. Any thoughts? Someone? Please!!!
You should try to put the phone into Recovery Mode so that iTunes can restore it.
1. First, make sure that your computer has an active internet connection (you can open the iTunes Music Store and make sure you can navigate around as a way to check your internet connection).
2. Turn the phone off (hold the top button until the slider appears, then drag the slider).
3. Hold down the Home (round) button while you connect the USB cable to the iPhone. The USB cable should be connected directly to a good USB port on your computer, not on a USB hub, monitor, or keyboard.
4. Continue to hold the Home button down until the Recovery Mode screen appears (it looks like this: http://tinyurl.com/mhsje5 )
5. When you see that screen, release the Home button.
iTunes should tell you that it has detected an iPhone in Recovery Mode and that you must restore it.
iTunes will probably give you the option to set it up as a new phone or restore it from a backup. Choose setting it up as a new phone.

Tried to upgrade to new itunes and now can't load itunes or quicktime
HELP! i tried to upgrade my itunes. This upgrade was totally successful. I then had another problem on my computer so i tried to restore my computer to an earlier timepoint. Since I have done this, I can't load itunes or quicktime. I have tried to uninstall the programs and reinstall them but it still doesn't work. I get an error message on quicktime:
failed to initialize- error-2095
The itunes error message reads :
iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Help- I am going insane with this!!!I followed a link and somehow ended up at this post from Mike Hogan3 and combined it with something else I came across. This is what worked for me!
1)Follow his suggestions for removing quicktime and itunes (at the end of this message).
2)Then reinstall iTunes from:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
3) Then install QuickTime Standalone Installer from this page (located in the middle right of the page- don't install the one with iTunes!) http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
Hope this works! It did for me!

RE: QuickTime Installation FAILED!! "Error Code: -1"

This might not be exactly the same problem but lots of people (myself included) had problems after installing iTunes 6.0. I did the following and it finally installed correctly.
I went to
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;290301
and downloaded the Cleanup utility near the bottom of that page. When it installs on your machine it will scan your computer for every installer every ran on you're machine. Only select iTunes and Qtime and delete those 2 installers. Then I went to add/remove programs and removed iTunes and Qtime. Prior to this Qtime would not unistall but now it did. Funny thing was there was no prompting by windows once I hit "remove/repair" in the "add/remove programs" function.
Then rerun the iTunes 6.0.1 update. That had been failing to install Qtime prior to this but now it installed and I see all my music again and iTunes works. Let me know if this does the trick, I hope so. -
Tried updating to the new IOS and now the phone won't work, suggestions?
I tried to update the newer version of IOS on my Iphone 4S. After the update an Itunes icon and the adapter appeared on my screen.
I tried restoring the phone but it erased all of my data and now I can only take calls. I can no longer make calls and or send or receive text.
Any suggestions, or should I just take it to an Apple Store?
Any and all suggestions are welcome.That picture is trying to tell you that there is a problem and you must connect it to your computer and restore with iTunes to fix it.

I have a 3G iphone. I just tried to download the new itunes and lost all my itunes I had. I tried to transfer them from my computer but can't. How can I and what do I do to get the ones I bought before and now have lost.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod/iphone/ipad: File>Transfer Purchases -

I lost all the songs on my itunes and now my phone will not sync with out loosing all my music
my computer hard drive crashed and i had to re download itunes and now my phone will not sync without erasing all my music
That is correct. The iphone will sync with one and only one computer/library at a time. If you sync to another then it will indeed erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer/library.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use this to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
You will also need to enter one unique contact and calendar entry in the computer . When you first sync, you should get the option to merge. Otherwise this data will be erased as well.
Much easier to use your backup copy to put everything back. -

How can I sync my ipod nano 4 to iTunes on my PC? I've tried the sync botton on iTunes and the 5 steps recommended by Apple to correct sync problems with no luck.
How is your iPod configured to sync content from your iTunes library? Any error messages during the sync process?
You may want to reset warnings on the device by right->clicking on it under Devices and choosing Reset Warnings. Then resync the iPod to see if any alerts appear.
Is this the same computer you normally sync the Nano with?
