TS1538 it keeps telling me to unplug it and try again and i keep getting the same message. I cannot register this iphone on my new computer help!

my daugher received an old iphone (now being used as an ipod) from a friend and i am trying to set it up on my computer. i erased it and restored it to factory settings. I used to get a message that my computer didn't recognize it so unplug and try again. I did that and it didn't work. Now when i plug it in i don't get a message at all, nothing happens. the iphone itself says to plug into itunes which i did and it is not showing up. why does apple make this so difficult???? why can't i just register it ???? there is no option on the phone or itunes to do that. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello robodowd
There are a few things that can be done. First check the settings on your iPhone to ensure a proper connection to the iTunes and App Store. If everything is set and that does not work, then you can force a restore by following the steps highlighted below to restore your iPhone.
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
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.

HT1491 On both my iPhone & My iPad I keep getting the same message. Cannot connect to iTunes Store. I can connect on my Mac. Until the other day I have always been able to connect on both iPad & iPhone.

All of a sudden I keep getting the same message on both my Iphone and Ipad. (Cannot connect to Itunes Store.) (OK)
I am able to connect on my Mac. My Password is correct.

Hi Velvalee,
While there may not be specific information about that error, here is an article of steps for troubleshooting connectivity issues with the iTunes store:

I keep getting the same message: A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding

Since a day or two I have been getting the same error message: "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, open the script in the debugger, or let the script continue."
I am not an IT expert, however I've read similar posts online and tried lots of the suggested steps such as:
- deleting browsing history and cookies
- resetting Mozilla to factory settings
- uninstalling and re-installing Mozilla
Unfortunately, the problem is still the same. What can I do? I work from home and need the internet to work 100%.
By the way, the browsing works fine in other browsers, just not Mozilla.
Thanks

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":

*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

TS1702 App store keeps telling me my iPad settings have to be set to enable cookies to download apps. The setting is done, but why do I keep getting the same message to change the settings?

I'm just setting up my new iPad. I tried to download an app for the first time but kept getting a notice that said cookies have to be enabled. I have followed the directions on enabling cookies, but I keep getting the same message when I try to download the app.

Is this how you do it?

You need to delete your preview cache and have Lightroom rebuild it. Cache location can be found here.

I received the same error message after I had recently updated iTunes to 10.5.1 and I had wirelessly updated 13 apps. I had to go into iTunes and select Apps, on the bottom right it said I needed to update 13 apps. I updated the apps via iTunes and then synced again without an issue.

I keep getting the error message "apple application support is required to run itunes. Please uninstall itunes and then install it again." I've done this twice and still keep getting the same message...I'm at wits end Please HELP!!!

I keep getting the error message "apple application support is required to run itunes. Please uninstall itunes and then install it again." I've done this twice and still keep getting the same message...I'm at wits end Please HELP!!!

Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

I keep getting the message your account is not valid for use in the US Store. You must switch to the Canadian store before purchasing. I have selected the Canadian store, but I still keep getting the same message.

I keep getting the message: Your account is not valid for use in the US Store. You must switch to the Canadian Store before purchasing. I have selected the Canadian store, but still keep getting the same message. Any suggestions?

Hi hi-liter,
Are you certain that you are signed onto iTunes & Apps in the Canadian store?
Settings>iTunes & App Stores, click on your AppleID, and then click on View AppleID. Type in your password, then click on Country/Region. Once there, follow the prompts and then select the Canadian Flag.
Hope that helps!

ITunes keeps providing a message that iPod is currupted. I have restored the iPod and reloaded iTunes but keep getting the same message that the iPod is currupted.

iTunes keeps giving me the message that my iPod is currupted. I have restored the iPod and reloaded iTunes but keep getting the same message. What's weird is that my iPod will connect to another PC and that my PC will connect to my daughter's iTouch. Any ideas? My iPod was working with my PC for years and just started getting this error.

According to this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

When I try to update an app in the App Store i get a message "There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (13)" I have tried many many times and keep getting the same message. How do I resolve?

First take the steps recommended in this support article. If there's no change, continue as follows.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Cookies/com.apple.appstore.cookies
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
