I have older version of itunes on Windows Vista, when i check for updates it states it cannot connect to itunes update server even though i am connected to the internet, i have an iphone that has songs in the cloud and i want to add them to my library?

Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

  • Can I sell an iPhone that has been through the washing machine?

    I have a 16 month old iPhone 5S that went through the washing machine. Screen busted and now it doesn't work. I was wondering if it was still sellable. Meaning, is there anyone out there that would buy such a phone and be able to use the parts?
    I'm not trying to dupe anyone, I'm going to be up front about the condition, but I wasn't sure if any part of the phone still had value in it's current state.
    Thanks for any help.

    Yes, you can sell it as "for parts or not working" (that's what eBay would have you list it as). But you'd probably only get $10-$20 for it. Also, although it's not working, do as much of this as you can: What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support.

  • ITunes loads, but freezes when it checks for podcast subscriptions

    For the last week, I have been getting lock ups on iTunes and Firefox. It seems it started just before I updated to OS 10.4.10, but it may have happened when I installed the update. Essentially, iTunes is unuseable. I can use iTunes for a couple of minutes as long as I am NOT online. As soon as I go online, the application freezes within 30 seconds. I have repaired permissions. I downloaded 7.2 again last night and the new 7.3 this morning but still the same lock ups.
    Any help?

    Me too. Well I haven't used firefox but iTunes freezes within seconds of trying to download podcasts.This is only on my eMac. I tried all sorts of things but the one that works is quite tedious. first back up everything and then delete everything and i mean everything. Launch iTunes go into preferences/ podcasts/check for new episodes and click on 'manually' that will give you time to back up without iTunes freezing. Then download "AppZapper"- http://www.appzapper.com/ or AppDelete - http://reggie.ashworth.googlepages.com/appdelete then delete everything, download iTunes and re-install. then reload everything. A real pain I know but it worked for me. Good Luck.

  • I just bought iphone 5 and my itunes says I need itunes 10.7 But when I look for upgrades it says I have the current version of itunes. HELP!

    I just bought iphone 5 and my itunes says I need itunes 10.7 But when I look for upgrades it says I have the current version of itunes. HELP!

    I am so sorry I am frustrating you. This is the first time I have used this community and am leanring as I go. I am not able to see the entire post that you leave, unless I look at it on my phone (email)--I am so sorry. You have no idea how much i appreciate your help. Yes, I see that I can get the later version of OS software, but its not availabe for immediate download. My only options appear to be having it shipped, or going to the store to purchase. And if you know of another way that I can access all of my itunes library music on my new phone withouth using itunes, I would love to hear about it.--thanks and again i am so sorry for frustrating you.

  • HT4972 I'm trying to update my iphone 3G to ios5 - however in Itunes when I 'check for updates' it is advising me that I have the latest version (4.2.1). Hence I can't update and now I can't run a few of the apps I previously used. Help!

    Following a backup and restore of my iphone 3g I have lost the use of a number of apps - this seems to be as they need ios5 or later to support them and I only have 4.2.1
    When I check for updates via itunes I am advised that I have the latest version - but clearly I don't.
    Any help gratefully received on how I can upgrade to ios5

    Sadly, the iPhone 3G can not be upgraded beyond iOS 4.2.1.

  • Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.

    Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.
    All of the apps I have found on the App store either do not have the text to speech capability or if they have it they will only read a page at a time or simply read the text you paste into their window. I really do not understand what is so difficult about having this feature as Kindle provides it--though Amazon does not make the feature available on its iPhone 4 app.
    Please help.

    thanks. yes i am aware of the VoiceOver feature but it is NOT the solution to my problem. as you said, it is a solution to a different set of issues. i want the text to speech ability because i there are books i need to read but do not have the time to sit down and read them and have become used to listening to them read to me either by a professional human reader or with the text to speech software on the Kindle.
    I think Apple makes the best audio devices but i am really disappointed in this inexplainable shortcoming. if apple can give us siri they ought to be able to design a nice little button that i can push to turn on text to speech while i am in a document, book, magazine or webpage. clearly it is possible as apple has added the "reader" button in safari to have web pages dropped into the reader format.
    thanks for your suggestion though, it is what everyone suggests but it does not address the issue.

  • What can i do about my iphone that has a blue tint to the screen when i have sunglasses on?

    what can i do about my iphone that has a blue tint to the screen when i have sunglasses on?

    That sounds like an issue with the sunglasses and possible polarization...there is nothing that you can do to offset that on the iPhone itself.

  • I have a 2 year old MacBook Pro and the superdrive has stopped working, it won't take discs in as if there is one already inside but iTunes or the dvd player doesn't recognise that there is a disc inside and if there is it can't be ejected

    I have a 2 year old MacBook Pro and the superdrive has stopped working, it won't take discs in as if there is one already inside but iTunes or the dvd player doesn't recognise that there is a disc inside and if there is it can't be ejected, i have tried shutting down and restartinf while holding down the trackpad, as recommended on some forums but that has done nothing
    It might be a huge coincidence but the drive was working fine before i installed lion?

    Installing Lion would not cause the superdrive to stop working.  Are you unsure as to whether or no a cd/dvd is inside?  Something may be broken inside and you should consider bringing it in for service.

  • Is there a way to recover my photos on my iphone that has not been backed up.  It was dropped in water and will not turn on.  I have had it in rice for 24 hours.  Thank you

    Is there a way to recover my photos on my iphone that has not been backed up.  It has been in rice for 24 hrs. 
    Thank you !

    No since thay have not been backed up. Hopefully the phone will work long enough after the 'rice treatment" for you to recover the phone and do a backup. The rice sometimes does not work. Good luck.

  • I have connected an AirPlay enabled device to iphone4s. I started palying songs. I was able to access internet through 3G from iphone.After few seconds 3G symbol disappears and WiFi symbol appears. After that I'm not able to access internet. Why is it so?

    SMS. Deggie, had them check that.  After a lengthy discussion with Senior Tech advisor, it appears it is iMessage/Face Time server (they are the same) issue, which will strong arm those into purchasing Data if they use iMessage over multiple devices, as the server registers the phone number associated with apple ID.  Not impressed. I put what I've learned here in a simliar thread
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/17416082#17416082
    and this is what I've put in apple.com/feedback
    "iMessage requires internet.  SMS does not.  iMessage/FaceTime auto logs phone numbers to the iMessage/Facetime  server (it's the same server as I've come to learn), this means that when iMessage/Face Time is turned on anyone sending a message through the server to me will only be sent as an iMessage- not when I'm not connected to internet, meaning I will not receive the message as an SMS by default, when I have another device using iMessage (such as MacBook) logged in.
    This feature is a problem for me, bottom line, in that iMessage strong arms the consumer (me) into having to buy a data plan that they either do not want, or do not need."

  • My screen is cracked on my iPhone 5 and it still works perfectly but now, it won't charge. I have two chargers and neither work.  Is it my screen that has messed with the charging area?

    Probably when you dropped it something inside the phone broke too.

    I have an iphone that has stopped charging. I have purchased a new battery and charger for it but it is still not charging. Does anyone know how i can fix this?

    That pretty much eliminates all the user-serviceable parts the phone has.
    When you say you purchased a new battery, I'll assume that it included the installation and you did not go fiddling with the nanoscrews and such. So it's got to have some sort of warranty that the part is good and it is time to take it back for service.
