Hello.. I am getting a screen when i turn my laptop on startup says OSX utilities....restore, reinstall osx or disk utility....what does this mean?

Hi, that sounds like it's booting from a Restore partition, but that is only for 10.7 & up, you list 10.6.8 though.
Anyway, hold alt key at bootup, what boot choices are shown?

I just received my iPad2 today. When I turned it on it only showed a USB cable and the ITunes icon. What does this mean?

The first thing that needs to be done with a new iPad is to activate it by connecting it to a computer running iTunes (version 10.2 +).

That's an issue with your system. Try removing the iTunes and the other APPLE software related from your system and reinstall it again.

You need to contact iTunes support and send an email by following the link I posted.
Simply going there does nothing.

I had this exact same problem just now, trying to upgrade to 10.7.
I even got that error msg when trying to UNINSTALL iTunes!
After hours of frustration trying everyone's different suggestions, I downloaded Revo Uninstaller http://www.cnet.com.au/apps/revo-uninstaller-10610875/ which solved the problem.
Use it to help uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
1. iTunes
2. QuickTime
3. Apple Software Update
4. Apple Mobile Device Support
5. Bonjour
6. Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Then you can install iTunes from scratch.
Good luck

First, restart the MacBook Air and the Time Capsule. In most of the cases, this solves the problem.

After trying a few other remedies, the tech at Apple Care suggested I reinstall Lion.
Here's the article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.7/en/mchlp1599.html
I have not had the error message since, even after importing about a dozen CDs and burning a couple playlists.
This seems to be the fix.

My itunes store is saying that it could not contact the server, it says i need to restore my ipod but when i go to restore it, it says the server could not be contacted or something. what does this mean?

okay so last night i went to charge my ipod in the computer and it started working then i took it out of the computer and put it on a wall charger and it had a spasm attack and shut itself down, after that it said i had to connect it to itunes so when i did it kept telling me that i need to restore my ipod, but when i press restore the itunes said "the contact server is not avalible" or something similar to that, what does that actually mean and is there anyway i can fix my ipod. i have dropped my ipod a few times, on tiles, wood, in a gutter of water when it fell out my pocket but im also wondering is it something to do with my ipod or is it itunes?

Try:
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
The abuse may prevent a restore or prevent proper operation of the iPod if you can restore the iPod.

I updated iTunes to iOS5 and now my iPod Touch 2G is not recognized in iTunes. I'm getting a message that says "Apple Mobile Device service is not started". What does this mean?

What does "the Apple Mobile Device service is not started" mean? I updated iTunes and I got this message when connecting my iPod Touch (2nd gen).

Never mind--I think I found the answer through other posts. Thanks!

Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
