Upgrading to IOS8 on iTunes
Hi all,
I have an iPhone 5s and newest iPad ….
If I use USB and iTunes (macbook 10.8) - can I just download ios8 1x and use it for BOTH devices(time saver...) - Or do I need to download separate one for each device….?
no.
it will need to download for each device

H. I upgraded to iOS8.1.3, and now when I attempt to backup my iPad to iTunes for Windows, it keeps popping up an error message "not enough space on the computer". There is over 130Gb of space! I have updated iTunes, but no change. Is it an issue in the iOS update? Or am I doing something wrong?
Would appreciate your guidance...
<Subject Edited by Host>When you upgraded, itunes should have put a copy of the itunes library database in a folder named *Previous iTunes Libraries* . If you upgraded itunes today it will show as
iTunes Library 2010-02-28.itl
Use these directions to get it back

Since I am not sure of your setup, look for the "Previous" folder on both your C: and F: drives. -
Does anyone have a sticky iPhone since upgrading to ios8? Scrolling is rough in iTunes (horizontal album covers) and on the iPad it's much worse with photo and video albums! iPhone5s and iPad3 retina displays.
Lots and lots of questions
The new Photos app in OS X should address much of this - it greatly simplifies syncing stuff across machines. Apple has details on it up here:
https://www.apple.com/osx/photos-preview/
It says "coming this spring" and a pre-release version has already been made available to developer testers. -
SI since upgrading to ios8, Safari pages are very slow to load, Kindle crashes upon opening, and I can no longer read saved artices from my reading list when offline. Big disappointment. Is it possible to downgrade to previous ios?
I actually managed to fix it! But unfortunately I don't know what I was that I did that helped.
Anyways, this is kind of what I did.
1. I tried to reset form bakup via iTunes, no change.
2. I tried to reset as a new iPhone, problem still there and reading list also as bookmarks!? (several hundred)
3. Noticed that I could delete a bookmark, once in a while, the other times I got the 'Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed.' message.
4. Because I figured that it was a memory problem, I thought it made sense to delete as many as possible, witch I did.
5. Noticed that it was more likely that I coould delete a bookmark if I restarted Safari.
6. Notice that it was even more likely that I could delete a bookmark if I turned the Safari sync with iCould off (with option detete information on iPhone) and then back on again.
7. When I was about half way through deleting the bookmark list I suddenly discovered that all but one of the items in my reading list was 'waiting' and one was downloading. I kind of was 'unstuck' now.
8. I started to delete items in my reading list, but every other time I got the 'Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed.' message.
9. It took a while to delete all bookmarks and items in the reading list.
Hope you guys could use the info here to fix your problems too! -
I have two different 5s's with two different phone numbers but they are both using the same iCloud/apple account. After upgrading to iOS8 when I get a phone call on one phone both phones ring. One phone is for work and one is for private and I don't need both phones to ring from one call. It's bizarre.......is this supposed to be like this? If so where can I turn it off?? And while we are at it iOS8 has installed iBooks on both of my phones and iTunes won't let me uninstall it. I don't need or want iBooks on my phones.
Hi,
There are two easy fixes to this.
One, you can set up Family Sharing, in which you can have two different iCloud Accounts, yet still share the same apps, music, media etc.
Two, go to Settings and turn-off "Handoff". This can be found under the General page.
Hope this helps! -
After upgrade to IOS8 can't import photos from Aperture
I upgraded to IOS8, reset my iPad to factory settings and reinstalled all my apps from scratch.
When go into iTunes and I select to import photos from Aperture on my Mac it hangs.
I have an old iPhoto library on my Mac and if I select photos from that it works.
I have switched off everything to do with iCloud after seeing some posts that this might be causing the problem, but not a solution for me.
(I have over 28,000 photos in my Aperture library).Did you turn on iCloud Photo Library? I suspect it may remove the ability to sync photos and videos between Macs and iOS devices.

During/after upgrading to ios8.1 my ipad air is looping is a screen where i see the apple logo after a minute or so i see a flash of bleu then black en the it starts over again....i can't even turn of. Help?
Hi,
Had the same issue. Hard reset not working.
What I did was: start your mac/pc and open iTunes, hold down the home button of the iPad (and while holding the button), connect it to the PC with the cable.
Keep pressing until you get a pop-up asking to upgrade or restore.
Hope this helps for you!

All data deleted after upgrade to iOS8
I am deeply sad. All data has been deleted after upgrade to iOS8.
What I did:
1. Connect ipad to PC to transfer records from voice recorder.
2. iTunes offered to upgrade system.
3. I confirmed.
4. Some unknown error occured in the end of upgrade process.
5. When iPad started, iOS8 was there. All data disappeared.
6. I am sad. All valued data I need is lost... (no backup has been done before upgrade).
Pls advice is it possible to get data back.Yes. I did backup.
But don't know how to get it.
Actualy, all I need is 2 records from Recorder programm. Before upgrade I downloaded records from itunes; screen → http://joxi.ru/caQdVIwyTJDKAjTtsuk
Now it is empty, no records.
I see that backup of this programm data available in storage. But don't know how to get it from there; screen → http://joxi.ru/taUdVP3JTJAaYtIkBaI
By the way iTunes tells me that backup copies available for today only → http://joxi.ru/7KUdVP3JTJBAXfQZjgI -
Since upgrading to IOS8 I can't send or receive emails. Can I uninstall?
Since upgrading to IOS8 I can't send or receive emails. Can I uninstall?
That's strange.
I bet you updated your iPad without using iTunes.
Anyway
No, you cannot uninstall iOS 8 and downgrade to iOS 7, but you can try reinstall iOS 8.
I would suggest you to do it from DFU mode.
Here are some things you need to know before proceeding:
You WILL NOT lose your photos, messages, notes, reminders or anything on your device.
If you choose to backup on iTunes, you will NOT lose your Apps. Anyway, if that happens someway, (it shouldn't happen, don't worry) you can download them later for FREE.
Here's how to proceed:
-First of all, as usual, do a complete backup of your device either on iCloud or your iTunes (i personally suggest iTunes. If iTunes asks to backup Apps, agree.)
-Put your device in DFU [While the iPad is connected to iTunes, press and hold both the home and the power button. When the Apple logo appears, release the power button and keep holding the home button until you see the iTunes logo on the iPad screen.]
-Once your device is in DFU mode, iTunes will automatically detect it as an iPad in recovery mode, so it will ask you to restore your iPad.
-Click on Restore and accept iOS 8 terms and conditions to continue the installation.
-Wait for iTunes to download and install the software.
-Once your iPad restarts, you will be guided to the configuration of your iPad. When it asks you if you want to configure it as a new iPad or restore from a backup, choose the iTunes or iCloud backup depending on where your backup is.
-Wait for iTunes to restore your device.
You're done!
Now test your device and let me know if everything works well!

IPhone4s upgrade to ios8,down!
My 4S upgraded to iOS8,successfully. Later on when I reboot it, the **** phone down. It keep reboot --> upgrade -->reboot. The only thing I can do is type the passcode and wait. I tried to plug it into PC using itunes , but no use. Itunes cannot recognize my phone.
The one last thing I can do is using itunes to reset iphone, but it will delete all my data which I really don't want.
So hey guys, is there anyone can help me with that? Any suggestion will be thankful.
Roger HanHey luizmba,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with a built in application on your iPhone 5. I also understand that you have attempted to reset your iPhone. If the issue persists after a reset, the next step is to restore your device as new:
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

Backup problems after upgrade to ios8
Hello,
I have an iPhone 5s model.
After i've upgraded to ios8 I can not make a backup using itunes or icloud.
Before upgrading I had no problem with backups at all.
I have no problem of space and memory.
I've reinstalling, and restore the device and nothing helped.
I'd be delighted if you could help me.
Thanks EitanHello again, Eitan.

after upgrade to iOS8 on my iPhone5, I do not see smart keyboard options while typing message or email text
Go to Settings>General>Keyboards>Predictive Text>ON. If it is on, you can toggle it off and then back on. The other method is to check in the typing area of the Messages app and it could be minimized. You would see a small line in the center just below the typing area. You would just need to put your finger on that small line and swipe upwards. But either should bring it back.

I have just bought a new computer and downloaded itunes. I plugged in my iphone and upgraded to the newest itunes/ synched etc. Now have no music or apps on the phone. Contacts, texts, photos all fine. Just all itunes content that is missiing. It isn't showing in my itunes account on my computer or on my phone. Any idea how to get it back? (No point synching with itunes on my computer as it isn't there either!)
I suggest copying your entire iTunes library to your new computer, also you might want to copy the photos you want to save. Then sync your device to the new iTunes and copy over your music, documents and photos that you want.
If you are no longer going to use the old computer you should open up iTunes on the old computer and use the menu to deauthorize it. Be sure to use the same iTunes menu on your new computer to Authorize the new one. -
I am using an iPAD2 with 32gbytes on iOS8.1.1.
After upgrading to iOS8.0, the movies I had on my iPAD no longer would play. When I select a movie, it changes to the play screen, then immediately flips back to the selection screen. The movies are in the :movies" category. I tried to reclassify them to "home movies" under the INFO option, but it is grayed out.
I did just copy another movie and it automatically was classified as a "home movie" and it play just fine. My guess is this has something to do with the category it is in. However, I cannot change the categories on the previous movies.
Any help is appreciated.Can you record and play new VMs?
Can you sync them to your computer?
Try:
- 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.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from a back that was made then the VM played back. See:
