My iPod says that it needs an iCloud backup and it hasn't been done in 3 weeks. However, it will not allow me to do anything.. It won't even let me turn it off. Please help! Thank you!!!

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then go to Settings>iClould Storage and Backup and manually make an iCloud backup

    It's probably telling you that you need 1.5 more GB than you have available. Hook up your device to iTunes on the computer you sync with and do the update from there. OTA updates require a lot more memory than ones done via iTunes.

    Is this your machine or the company's?  Machines that came with Snow Leopard or earlier installed come with system and software install disks that can be used to reisntall the iApps that came with the machine orignally. 
    If this is your machine and it came with Snow Leopard or earlier installed the disk will look slimialr to one of these:
    If it is the company's machine see if they have the disks.
    Do a custom install and then use Software Update to update iPhoto to the highest version that is available.

  • Ipad says it needs to be charged but i have charged it all night still willnt come on

    My ipad has chraged all night and it says battery is dead.  and will not come on. please help.

    Are you using the wall charger?
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

    In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

  • My windows is stuck during bootcamp and says i need to eject disk but will not allow me to. How can I eject disk?

    When I turn on the mac to install windows in bootcamp my windows gets stuck and says I must eject disk to install but will not allow me to eject disk. How can I eject the disk?

    Deauthorizing the computer will only cause you to have to enter a password to play iTunes Store purchases on that computer. It doesn't have anything to do with media thats synced to the iPod, other than the account user name is synced too.
    Check this Apple document out -> Using iPad or iPod with multiple computers
    If you want to delete the music library on your device and make the new computer its "home" computer, choose Erase and Sync. iTunes will delete all songs and playlists on your device, and then will copy the music library and playlists from the new home computer to your device.
    If you want to move the iTunes Store purchases on your device to the new computer, choose "Transfer Purchases." The new computer must be set up with your iTunes Store account and authorized to play your iTunes Store purchases in order to transfer your iTunes Store purchases.
    Notes:
    Synchronization generally occurs only in one direction, from your computer to your device. However, if you are legally allowed to transfer song files, you can use your iPod as a hard disk3. An exception is the transfer purchases feature, which allows you to restore purchased iTunes content to an authorized computer from your device.

  • My new iphone 4 keeps saying it needs to be restored, but won't restore.

    My new today iphone 4 keeps saying that I need to restore it, but everytime I do it says at the end of the restore an error occured and the restore failed, and I can't use the phone until it's been restored....any help?!

    Try disabling your antivirus and firewall software. It can interfere with the restore/update process.

  • I am trying to share 3 iCloud calendars, but I do not see any options when I click on the Share icon.

    I have several calendars on my iCloud, and I want to share 3 of them with my wife. I am using Safari 6.0 on Mountain Lion (10.8), and when I go to my calendars on iCloud, I see all of the calendars listed in the left column. The three I want to share already have an active Share icon (green), although I do not recall sharing these calendars in the past.
    When I click on the Share icon beside each Calendar, it shows that the calendar is shared with myself. There is NO OPTION in this window for unsharing, or adding my wife to the share, or making them a Public or Private Calendar. The only option is a check box that allows me to decide whether to receive emails alerts when something is changed.
    I currently see all of my iCloud Calendars on my iPhone, iPad, and Mac Powerbook (running Mountain Lion). I share them with no one else. I have three Calendars that I do not want to share, and they have the options described in the Online Support, but the three I want to share with her give me NO OPTIONS.

    I should clarify that I am using a MacBook Pro, not Powerbook (if that's the proper nomenclature).

  • I bought an iPad air and requested the guy at the apple store to transfer all my data from the old iPad to the new one. But when I got home there was nothing even in my photos and iBooks please help

    I bought an IPad Air a week ago and asked the guy at the apple store to have all my information and documents transferred from the old iPad to the Air. However my iBooks and photos are empty. Please help. Is there something I can do or I just have to go back to the store?

    Using the same Apple id and Password you should be able to download purchased apps without being charged again.
    I download to an iPad/iPad2/iPhone3 & iPhone4 with no problem.

  • My phone says I need more iCloud storage In order to do a back up, yet I only have my camera roll currently turned on for back up and it says it's taking up 4.5GB yet I only have 3pictures currently on it......anyone know why this is happening? Solution?

    I don't know if something's wrong or I just have it set up wrong?! I have turned off all other apps etc so the only thing currently being backed up is camera roll. I transferred all my pictures to my laptop and deleted them off my phone yet camera roll still says it's taking up 4.5 GB

  • My Ipad says I need to restore it but I don't want to erase my music.  What are my other options?

    My screen displays the itunes icon in the middle of my screen with a picture of a charger.  How can I reset my ipad without erasing my media?

    At this point there isn't anything you can do. Hopefully you have some backups.
