Updated itunes to use ipad mini and itunes wont start up now?

i have a ipad3 + iphone4 + ipod touch and just brought ipad mini pluged it into itunes then itunes says have to update to use with ipad mini so i updated it like normal restarted pc and now doesnt work try reinstalling and repairing files still didnt work any ideas?

If anyone would like to know how to fix this, I discovered the answer.
I have no idea what IPv6 is and I care not, but apparently now, all of a sudden, Apple makes iTunes talk to Airport Express units using IPv6. However, it didnt bother to make the Airport Express units expect this first, so iTunes can see the Airport Express, but it cant talk to it.
Anyway, I found that you have to manually go into your Mac settings (scary stuff if you are a non technical person like me) and turn off IPv6.
To do this, go to "Finder > Go > Utilities > Terminal"
type
networksetup -setv6off Wi-Fi  (hit enter)
Then type
networksetup -setv6off Ethernet (hit enter)
and magically your iTunes will talk to your Airport Express units again.
I presume at some point we will have to undo this as technology moves on and everything uses IPv6, so when that happens go into Terminal again and type
networksetup -setv6automatic Wi-Fi  (hit enter)
Then type
networksetup -setv6automatic (hit enter)
Thanks Apple for that.

    Why Can't I view purchased movies on my Tv using iPad mini and lighting to VGA adoptor

    There's an issue currently that a lot of us are experiencing in that we all get the error message "iTunes is currently unavailable; please try later"
    It's an issue with Apple and we're awaiting an update re this
    I've posted a topic in regards to this after having a long conversation with Apple support this morning and will be receiving a call from their tech team tomorrow to run through it further
    As it stands iTunes cannot be accessed via ATV's and nor can it be streamed via AirPlay from iTunes to the ATV
    However I can access all films/iCloud content via my Mac Mini with no issues!

  • Im using an ipad mini and recently it started to act way wiered than i ever imagined.whenever i switch it on it would open or close apps of its choice and function without my interference.it's like auto touch.what should i do with this?

    That could be a hardware problem with the screen digitizer but first try these troubleshooting steps in this order:
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds). No data will be lost.
    Restore: Connect your device to iTunes on your computer, backup, and then select Restore to Factory.
    See here for more details on restore: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201252
    If none of these work your device may have developed a hardware problem. Contact Apple Support: http://www.apple.com/contact/

  • How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

    How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

    Hello and thanks for the answer.
    I meant by "not compatible" that all the solutions that I found on the web did not work, especially the "Microsoft exchange" one.
    Fortunately I found on the comments of the first website you mentioned the right answer for me, which I copy below:
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > Other > Add CardDav Account.
    Enter the following information in the fields:
    Server: google.com
    User Name: Enter your full Google email address
    Password: Your Google account password
    Select Next at the top of the screen to complete the setup.
    After you have completed the setup, open the Contacts app on your device. Syncing should begin automatically.
    Additional Information
    Note: Make sure that SSL is enabled (under Advanced settings), and that the port is 443.
    If you are using application based special password go to https://accounts.google.com/Se... and instead of your password put that special code and u r done.

  • My question is that if I am using Mac and another friend of mine is using Ipad mini and her skpe isnt working and we want to share screens how can we do it through Ichat? Since on facetime screens cant be shared!

    My question is that if I am using Mac and another friend of mine is using Ipad mini and her skpe isnt working and we want to share screens how can we do it through Ichat? Since on facetime screens cant be shared!

    Hi,
    You can't.
    Messages - the replacement for iChat in Mountain Lion and beyond will  do Screen Sharing  but only to the accounts it did in iChat 5 and 6  (actually it includes iChat 4 as well)
    That is to say in earlier version of iChat you could login to AIM and Jabber servers as well as enabling the Bonjour option to chat on your LAN.
    All these will do Video and Audio only chats which in turn means they will Screen Share.
    At iChat 6 an Yahoo option was added but it can only Text chat (it can't even send Files or Pics)
    This means only the Internet able accounts that login in to AIM or to a Jabber server  can Video and therefore Screen Share.
    The iMessages account will Invoke FaceTime if you use the Video icon during text chat.  (I.e. it is not Video inside the app like the AIM or Jabber accounts can do)
    NOTE.
    AIM includes Apple Issued Apple ID as Valid AIM Screen Names.
    Google Mail ID s can be used and Google Talk IDs with Messages as they run a Jabber server.
    Facebook allow you to create a Chat ID (Facebook Chat ID) which is also a Jabber server.

    Lets see whether this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
    Close your iTunes.
    Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
    Now open itunes and see if it is working?

  • I just restore my used ipad mini and I can't activate it! Help me!

    I just buy used ipad mini from Saudi and after I get back to my country, I restore it using recovery mode! It still need old owner email account assword. The problem is I can't contact the previous owner because email I delivered for him/her was failed to deliver! It seems he/she deleted his/her email account! Now, my ipad mini are useless! Please help me! Is Apple Store Service can make it activate for me?

    If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

  • HT5637 iTunes Match for iPad mini and iPhone 4

    I recently subscribed to iTunes Match via my iPad mini. I use iCloud for calendar, contacts and synching the iPad and my iPhone 4. I can't find iTunes Match on the phone. I thought the subscription would apply to both devices...is this incorrect?

    Thanks. I travel a lot and do not always have access to a good wifi connection, so I was wondering if the 2 devices will connect and sync ok so that I can synch photos as well as music etc when I'm not connected

    Error. A 2nd generation iPod touch can only be updated to iOS 4.2.1, so you can't use the deleted apps with a newer version that doesn't support iOS 4.2.1. If you have got the apps on your computer, connect the device and sync it on iTunes to get the apps. If not, you can't recover them and you will have to buy a new iPod

  • I have updated my ipod mini and It wont start anymore! :(

    I have installed the new update on my mini and then i follow everything correctly i connect my ipod to a ipod power adapter i did toggle the hold switch on and off and at last press and hold the menu and select button for at least 6 seconds...and it is dead meat....
    There is no signs of living thing in my ipod ....
    Its killed i have done everything to make it work again but it wont :(*

    That is true.  you purchase one download only of music/vids/etc.
    You can redownload apps only.
    Did you update without making sure that you had transferred all purchases from the ipod to itunes?  not good.
    From the itunes store terms of service:
    "PRODUCTS CAN BE DOWNLOADED ONLY ONCE; AFTER BEING DOWNLOADED, THEY CANNOT BE REPLACED IF LOST FOR ANY REASON. YOU SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BACKING UP YOUR OWN SYSTEM, INCLUDING ANY PRODUCTS PURCHASED OR RENTED FROM THE ITUNES STORE THAT ARE STORED IN YOUR SYSTEM."
    You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception.  They are under no obligation to allow.

    i have tried to update both my iphone and ipad to the new software on itunes and both came up errors and locked me out telling me to connect to itunes but nothing happens

    Try putting them in DFU mode. This helped me when it happened to my iPhone 5.

  • Installed software for Mac Mini and it wont start up

    Hi, I got a mac/windows microsoft mouse and the mouse worked when i plugged it in. To get the extra features I installed the software. It said to restart the comp so i did and all I get when it restarts is a blank white screen.
    The same thing happens all the time when i turn it on and turn it back on. What is this? How can I reverse this and remove the software? Is there anything that i can do to get my mac to run again?

    Start up the Mini in "Safe" mode by holding down the Shift key as soon as you turn on the power and keep it held down until you see the "gear" spinning.
    Extra features like the mouse driver won't load in safe mode, so you have a better chance of starting up. Then you can remove the extra software.
    There are a couple of ways the mouse driver software might be installed, but try this first:
    Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts
    Then click once on your account name in left panel.
    Then click on Login Items tab in right panel.
    Then click once on the mouse driver software (if it appears in the list of startup items in the right panel).
    Then click on the Minus button to remove it.

  • Update bios on satellite p855 s5200 and it wont start

    please i need help
    my laptop is almost new
    and i receive a message telling me about some update for the bios
    and i uopdate it
    and now the laptop doesn't turn on  please heeeelp

    Thanks to an online post I was able to recover from an unstartable situation.  And no help from Toshiba on the problem that they started.
    Here is the fix that worked for me:
    "The workaround I have found is to change the Boot speed setting in Bios to "normal" instead of the default "fast"
    To get to the System BIOS
    Press and hold the F2 button, then power on the Unit. That should bring up the BIOS, from there you should see a setting under the Advanced tab called boot speed, just set it to normal and you should be able to load windows normally.
