Setup did not find any hard disk drive in your computer
I have an old Compaq Presario 7598 Desktop (Windows XP) which I use as a backup machine. Recently when I tried to start it I am getting "Unable to access hard disk,. Operating system not found on any devices". Then when I tried to start with XP Boot Disk (CD), I am getting "Setup did not find any hard disk drive in your computer".
Can someone help me to resolve this issue?
Thanks.Repeatedly tap the F10 key at boot, you should see information for the hard disk.
Testing the hard drive:

I also recently installed Norton 360, but that was eliminated via Norton Help. They remoted in, removed Norton 360 and problem persisted - iPhone did not show on the "Computer" window, and no pop-up to download photos even with no antivirus installed. Norton help advised to uninstall and reinstall iTunes, which seemed a bit excessive. Any other fixes I can try before an uninstall and reinstall?
Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

My iPhone 4s is recognized by itunes and iphoto however it does not show up in finder under devices.
I don't agree - I have two IMacs and two iPhones - the iPhone 4S show up on one machine, but not the other. They do show that they are charging, and a memory stick will open on the same USB ports. So, I don't think this is how they are "supposed to work"......

The problem is that my iphone isnt connected/synced to iTunes and i've forgotten my password so iTunes isnt connected either so can someone pls help me?
PLEASE HELP MEHi Someonewashere,
In the article you were coming from, there is actually a section regarding what to do if you have never synced to iTunes before:
If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer
If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
"iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
"You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

My iPhone 5 cant sync with itunes and its always stuck at the backup phase
My iPhone 5 cant sync with itunes and its always stuck at backing up phase. I tried to update my ios(mine is 7.1.2) and it states that the iphone update server could not be contacted. make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active. Likewise when I try to update my iTunes through the help column(check for updates), it also says the same thing as when I try to update my ios on iTunes. Please help!

You need to do as provided. If no change after restoring as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem.

ITunes could not back up the iPhone because not enough free space is available on this computer
iTunes 11.0.1 (22)
Mac OS X 10.6.8
218.83 GB available
iOS 6.0.2
iPhone5
I get this error occasionally since getting the iPhone5 in October. My last successful back up to thei Mac was yesterday. Tonight, no backup.
One time when this occurred I had trashed files, and after I emptied the Trash the sympton went away. Tonight I had files in the Trash and emptie the Trash before connecting my iPhone and now no backup allowed.
I have quit and relaunched iTunes, and unconnected and connected the iPhone tonight with no change in the symptom.
My next counter measure will be to reboot.
Any suggestions?On my computer (Spring 2006 iMac, Snow Leopard, iTunes 11.1.3):
- I have 1.36 _terabytes_ of free space on my system disk.
- I have 2.1 _terabytes_ of free space on my Drobo[*] which contains my iTunes library.
My iPhone is an iPhone 5S 64Gb.
A backup should require, one would assume, less than 64Gb. In other words, a drop in the ocean of free space available to iTunes.
... and yet EVERY time I attempt a backup to my computer since getting my 5S it says:
'iTunes could not back up the iPhone "[name]'s iPhone" because not enough free space is available on this computer. Removing files and emptying the Trash will free up additional space.'
It's very clear that there's a bug given how much space I have available, and it's been present for 2+ months. :/ I had been able to back up my iPhone 4S.
- Stephen
[*] As far as the OS is concerned, the volume has 3.22Tb free, but it is backed by 2.10Tb of actual available space. In any case, "a whole heck of a lot". -
I can not seem to back up my iPhone 5s, error message is: iTunes cannot back up this iPhone because not enough free space is available on this computer
There is plenty of space over 260gbAre you absolutely sure there's 20GB in use, and not that it has 20GB free? If you click on the hard drive icon on your desktop and click cmd-i to Get Info, what is the available space?

I have a ipod classic 160GB and it's not showing any music anymore, but there is still showing 7GB of memory being used, and I don't have it backed up on my itunes, since I had to put a new hard drive on my computer. Any suggestion to find out whats on that memory or to get it the music back, there is approximately over 1400 songs on it?
What is the memory being used by, is it Other? If it is, that means the iPod can no longer read the music, so it has put it all in "Other".
The usual fix for this is to allow the iPod to Sync with its iTunes Library. If that doesn't work, the next option is to Restore the iPod using the Restore command in iTunes, on the Device/Summary pane.
Unless you are very (very) lucky, I suspect that you are going to have to Restore your iPod. Restoring will remove everything form the iPod and put back onto it only what it finds in your iTunes Library, which you say is currently empty.
If you have to rebuild your Library after this issue, by adding all the music back again, this is going to be hard to hear, but for the future, you may want to consider always having a backup of your library. The easiset way to back the Library up is;
if the Library is small enough, burn it to a DVD, as digital files, not a "music CD".
If your Library is too large for a DVD, buy yourself an external hard drive and copy the Library onto the drive. Remember to update the backup every so often. -

By accident i removed the charger while updating and now my iPhone shows me connect to iTunes and i am but my Phone doesn't show Help
You need to restore the iPhone via recovery mode. To do this follow the link below to guide you:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Because you need to restore to factory settings all data on the iPhone will be erased. Because the iPhone was never backed up most of the data you won't be able to get back. -
I made a ringtone on an app I got on my iPhone, I put it on iTunes and synced it with my iPhone and I can't find it on my phone, where do I have to look in order to find it?
When you synced in iTunes did you select your phone in devices on t left column and then click on tones int eh window on the right. When you synced did you tick all tones and tick sync and then click sync at the bottom of the window on the right? Was the ton ein the tones folder in the library folder?
