Update that went wrong.
Does anyone knows how to fix this problem? I received something on my phone that showed me that there was an update available. So when I updated my phone It deleted all the info. on my Experia Play games . I am unable to play those games. It keeps asking me to download and use the Wifi . I followed what they told me to do and I am still unable to play the preloaded games and I am unable to remove them as well.
I have done a hard reset and still can not play on my games that were preloaded when I have gotten the phone.

Hi, nzaxayadeth15-
I'm sorry to learn this is still happening. I recommend a hard reset (http://bit.ly/rQe5WN). This will wipe the software clean and correct any glitches that may have occured during the recent update. Once the reset is complete, it will walk your through an on-screen activation and setup to sync your contacts, calendar, and paid apps. Keep me posted.
Thanks,

How can i take a look at payments that went wrong?
Can u help me to find a purchase that went wrong. I need to reset the purchase or else i can not update
I'm not sure what you mean by "reset the purchase" What does that mean?
The only way that you can track payments in iTunes is on your computer. You can't do it on a mobile device.
Launch iTunes and go to Store>View my account. Enter your username and password and then go down to Purchase History and click on the "See All" text on the right side. In the next window you can research all of your iTunes purchases. -
hi, I really need some help.
My computer: MSI K7T-266 PRO2 mainboard for Socket A • 2 DDR-DIMM PC2100 512MB DDR memory • 1 AMD Athlon XP1800+ 1.53 GHz 266 MHz bus • 1 Western Digital Caviar 20GB IDE 7200RPM. Aproximately 1 year old.
Since I first got the machine I have frequently got a blue screen. It does not matter what I do. It can happen anytime. I have downloaded all the newest drivers, but without it helping. So what do I do? I flash my Bios, and as far as I know, it went wrong. I can't start my computer. It is dead. I just hear beeping sounds when I start it.
Can anyone please help me?
PS: Downloaded all the right files from MSI, and followed the instructions. Everything seemed to be OK, but when I reebooted nothing happened.look in your manual find the clear cosmos jumper
do not move it powered up
turn the plug of but keep it plugged in the earth helps
if this works you will have to reset your bios settings

Macbook4,1 10.6.8 and firmware update - what went wrong?
Macbook 4,1 2008 2.4Ghz (not unibody). I recently reformatted my hard drive and reinstalled 10.6 from the Retail DVD and all seemed to go well. The MB was working fine up to that point. I then set up the MB (network, date and time, etc.) and repaired permissions.
I then checked Software Update and downloaded and installed the recommended updates to 10.6.8.
Again, all seemed to go fine. System booted and I repaired Permissions again. I went to the Apple web site, a couple of other web sites, and Software Update found another update to install: Firmware. Though I don't remember what version.
I clicked OK and it installed.
Upon reboot, it seemed to install okay.
But then I left the Macbook and it went into Sleep.
I didn't come back to it again until the next day.
When I pressed a key to wake it, I got what I now know is the screen that appears after you wake it from SAFE SLEEP. As per this Apple KB article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1757.
And this is where the problems started.
After the MB woke to the Safe Sleep screen, which shows the desktop a little "out of focus", the progress bars started filling in from left to right, BUT before they completed, the screen went BLACK.
And it has had a problem with black screen ever since. I can boot the MB from internal or external HD or from DVD, and it seems to boot fine. Boot chime, Apple logo, spinning wheel, then at the point where it pauses, blue screen, then goes to desktop, instead the screen goes black.
It finishes booting, but seems to go into Sleep.
I can wake it by pressing a key, but the screen either comes on and goes black again after 10 seconds, or I get the Safe Sleep wake screen, and then it goes black after 10 seconds.
And at boot or when waking the MB, the front LED flashes 5 times. There are no error beeps.
I've tried changing RAM, but problems remain.
So what's all this? Any ideas?
The display doesn't seem dead, as it works to boot and wake. The MB works fine with external monitor.
It's weird, but I can't think of anything apart from the Firmware update. The problems started right after installing it.
Unfortunately, this model of Macbook doesn't have a Firmware Restoration image to download and burn to CD. It is the ONLY Mac at this point that doesn't have this!
I called Apple support and even bought the 49 Euro Pay Per Incident service, which proved to be the same as throwing 49 Euro out the window. The only "technical" support they provided was to Reset the SMC, which you can find out about FOR FREE at the Apple website. And which I'd done anyway. I'd also reinstalled the MacOS. Don't want to beef too much, but sheesh, you've already got a Macbook that might need costly repairs, and they make you pay 49 Euro BEFORE they even ask you about the problem and what you've done to try to solve it. I'm tempted to say "ripoff". I mean, if all they can offer you is the advice to reset the SMC - which Apple offers for free at their website - then that's pretty poor service for 49 Euro, to say the least.
Apart from the wasted 49 Euro, I'm pretty peeved about the Firmware update (or so it seems) wrecking a perfectly working 2008 Macbook. I don't know how to convince Apple of this, but I'm certainly going to try.Thanks for the reply.
Re. the Displays setting, the Macbook display isn't recognized and mirroring isn't an available option.
I've scoured the net and the idea of replacing the PRAM battery may be something to try. I read a post by a guy with a Macbook logic board screwed up by a Firmware update, which he solved by replacing the PRAM battery, as when you disconnect it you reset the logic board.
Which capacitor?
No luck so far with talking to Apple. I will try to get hold of someone a little more tech savvy and/or in a position of authority, as it seems that the Firmware is the culprit. Obviously a million other things could go wrong with a Macbook, but given the timing here it looks like the Firmware. Firmware updates can and occasionally do screw up a computer, as most manufacturers will warn you before you apply the update: PC makers, printer makers, etc. And they probably warn you that it's all your responsibility if anything goes wrong. But re. the Apple Firmware update:
1) it came thru Software Update
2) there was no warning
3) to make things worse, there's no Firmware Restoration image that I can burn to a CD to reflash the logic board: this is the only Apple computer that doesn't have a Firmware Restoration option
I'll try to get thru to a manager and convince him/her that the firmware may have been the cause.
Do you think an authorized Apple tech might have access to some way to do a firmware restoration? Something not avaiable to mere mortals? Because if not, the only solution looks like a new logic board. -
Last iTunes update - what went wrong?
My iPod was running smoothly until I installed the last software updater. Afterwards, iTunes would freeze when I plugged in my iPod and the computer would not recognize it. I followed all of the R's - short of restore - and that didn't work. Finally, I took a deep breath and restored the device, erasing everything.
I reinstalled the software on the iPod and things seemed to work. Except that when I tried to update/synch the iPod with iTunes, I could only do it in 200-300 song chunks. Fine, so it took a week or so to get it all back. Then, after 1 day, it starts freezing again and will not go out of "Do Not Disconnect" mode, and I could not disconnect using the "safely remove hardware" feature. I committed what appears to be the cardinal sin and disconnected the device while it said not to do so. Now I have an iPod that only shows the sad face and the link to iPod support.
I visited the store in SoHo and was told to make an appointment for a repair, but the technician said the disc may be corrupt. Doesn't sound good, especially after reading some posts here about restored iPods becoming unusable.
Has anyone that has encountered the problem had any luck or am I looking at a dead device? I suppose it wouldn't hurt to try the original CD route. If I do that, then presumably I would not update iTunes, correct (even though iTunes on the computer has been updated)?
Confused, tired of dealing with this and missed my iPod dearly during a transit strike that increased my commuting time by 400%.
Success stories sought.Unfortunately, I still get the sad iPod and a "quarter battery" symbol when I dock it.
sorry Gordon, i saw the "do not disconnect" but missed the "sad Apple" in your original post.
iPod does not appear in iTunes or on the desktop, an exclamation point or sad iPod icon appears onscreen
let's try the restore one more time. let's try it with antivirus and antispyware switched off this time. (tracking a strange cluster of cases involving interference by those packages, and we sometimes get some joy when doing this.)

Updating iPhone went wrong. Is it possible to remove data before restoring when in recovery mode?
My mum was updating her iPhone and she either unpluged the phone to soon or there was a problem with the update. Now the phone will not turn off and the screan is telling me to plug the phone back to iTunes. When I do so there is a pop up telling me i have to restore the phone and will lose all the data on the phone. If any one can help me save this data before I restore the phone i would be very greatful.
When the phone demands a recovery, you'll have to do that. Try to connect in recovery mode, with a little luck the phone will be able to backup before restoring, in case the firmware is not completely damaged.
Recovery mode is explained here: iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to restore -
Has Apple done a fix for the recent Security update that went bad.
Hoping to see a message from Apple that they have made a patch to correct the errors caused by the recent download.
Yes, the problematic update v. 1.0 was immediately replaced by v. 1.1. Just run Software Update again to install it and resolve the Rosetta problems caused by the original.

Restore backup that went wrong
I went to connect my dad's iphone 4s to itunes, bc he hadnt done so in a while. And when I connected it, it asked to do a restore...and without thinking I clicked ok and it retored it to 5 yrs ago (the last time he'd ever backed his phone up). The final outcome is that i lost most of his pictures and ALL of his contacts. Is there a way to undo this?? I beg for accurate answers. Thank you

I redownloaded Lion to set things right and backup only my files. However, when I redownloaded Lion and I connected my externel hardrive and clicked on time machine, all the backups were in pink and when I clicked on them they were unresponsive. What happened and how do I fix this?
If your backups are on a network, it may take a few moments for the display to be "populated" and responsive.
What you see in the "Star Wars" display depends on how you got there. If you start from, say, your Documents folder, then that folder is all you'll see. If it wasn't included in your backups, you can't select them.
Select something else before going into the display, or select something else in the sidebar.

When I syncronized my iPad 2 with iTunes, something happened that made the syncronization to not go all the way through. I tried restore, but the iPad became disconnected from iTunes and now the iTunes do not recognize the iPad (it is not visible as a unit). When I start the iPad it has the symbol for iTunes and do not respond for anything else but wait for being connected to iTunes. Catch 22... How do I get my iPad to become visible in iTunes??? so I can restore the iPad?
Have you tried the tips here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1604 :
Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for error 1604.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection. -

I was updating my phone in itunes and the "update went wrong" and now the phone is not recognized by itunes. I unattatched the phone and it wont turn on or off, just shows a picture of the itunes symbol and a usb cord. In itunes it says that it is an unknown iphone and is in recovery mode so I need to restore the phone. If I restore the phone I loose all my pictures, which I dont want to do...and my contacts. Is there any way around this, so I can get my phone back to normal without wiping it all out? Thanks

can some one help me I was up dating my Ipad and something went wrong. I am on my computer now.
You are in Recovery Mode. Follow the instructions below to recover your iPad.
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. 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 turn off.
If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button.
5. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad. Data will be lost. -
My 10.8.3 update did not install properly citing an 'Unknown Error'. Now, my Mail and Mac App Store aren't working. What went wrong and how do i fix it ?
I tried this and still have the same problems. If I open Address book or the Mac App Store I get the library rebuild popup and a hang. I created a fresh user and then things are better apart from the printing issue. Its clearly some 3rd party software issue but the crash logs are meningless to me. I used the excellent Etre check app from http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck so I have a list of what is being loaded and can compare clean and crashed user info but as I cant work out which of the startup items, launch agents, launch daemons etc that are causing the problem.
I have eliminated Dropbox, Mac Keeper and Witness, and it isnt related to my exterrnal LED cinema dispay or my external thunderbolt drives, or any USB devices if thats any help to anyone else. Info from Etrecheck follows -
