We have stopped getting any software updates, and now we can't sync our new iPad with iTunes, b/c it won't update. It says it's up to date, but it's still on a 10 version.
Our computer won't update. We can't hook up a new printer, or hook up any new i-devices, b/c the software updates are not working.
Backup just your users files off the machine before doing anything and unmount and disconnect the drive.
Upgrade to Snow Leopard and run the Software update until clear
Provided your machine is working good, Snow Leopard is a darn good upgrade for a 10.5 box. Especially if it's freshly installed.
Do not upgrade that older machine to OS X 10.7 or later (or to Mavericks 10.9) it's too out of date (old), it will be slow and your PPC based software will no longer work. (will under Snow Leopard/Rosetta)
Currently 10.6.8 is fine with your iOS devices and geting security updates, we still have 25% OS X market share still, but eventually a new machine is likely in order for you soon.
I advise breaking in a new Mavericks 10.9 machine, avoid upgrading that older one past 10.7, use it for backup or sell it.
OS X 10.4/10.5 need to upgrade, 10.6.8 ok still

How can I sync my new iPad with my itunes account on my 4 yr old macbook? I plugged the iPad in once and all music synced. The 2nd time it said update needed. Macbook says no update available.
" how can I sync my iphone to my mac book without losing all the music and pictures on it?"
You cannot. Copy everything you want form the old computer to the new one, then sync it.
it basically says you have to erase your iphone to sync to a new itunes!
Correct Iphone will sync, or manually manage, with one and only one computer/library at a time. Syncing, or manually managing, to another will indeed erase the current content. -
I upgraded to ios5 and now I can't log into my Ipad with the password I had set and been using for the last 2 years. What do I need to do to get logged in?
You will have to format your iPad. Looks like that's the only way to reset your password.
Formatting your iPad
Turn off your iPad, turn on iTunes, hold large button down on ipad while connecting the white ipad cord to your Pc.
When the window prompts format iPad,let the button go and press format button on iTunes.
That is how I solved the same problem. -
My nephew lost the paired Apple TV remote and now I can't pair a new one with it. How do I unpair the lost remote without pairing another remote?
See this official Apple article on how to unpair your remote with an Apple TV.

Let us know how this works for you.
Also, are you positive the battery in your Apple TV remote is good?

Can I sync my work iPad with iTunes at home without affecting my work email and contacts?
Does anyone know if I sync my work iPad with my home iTunes account will my work email etc be effected or deleted??
thanksYou may use your own content purchased through the iTunes stores on any device that you own or that is in your control. So, as long as you are not sharing the iPad 2 with other employees, you can sync it with your home computer. It is a bad idea to sync the iPad to both computers, as each will completely erase what the other computer synced before syncing.

How can I sync my new iPad with my iPhone and Gmail?
I just purchased an iPad air. I want to sync the iPad with my iPhone 5c and my Gmail account. Everytime I go to add go to add an email account it tells me my gmail password is wrong. How can I sync these devices? Thanks Jenni
When you add the account to the pad it should work just fine. You are doing somethjing subtly wrong with the password as you are setting the account up.
Try again, and pay real close attention to not only the password, but the other entries as you set up the account.
If you get frustrated, simply go to google, and reset your passwoird to something new that you will easily remember, then use that password. You will need to change the pword in your other devices as well to match the new one. -
I bought a iphone with less storage and now i can't back up new phone with old phone data.
My old iphone was 32 gb and i had a lot of pictures on it. i had recently backed up it to my computer on itunes. I got this phone stolen.
I replaced it with a 16 gb iphone and when i went to go restore it, it wouldn't let me because there was not enough space.
I dont care about the apps or contacts, etc... , i am more interested in the photos. anyway to download the photos from the 32gb phone onto my desktop?
right now those photos are only in the "previous back ups" section of my itunes when i plug in my phone.
thanksUse google and find a way to extract the pictures from the backup.
Apple states that backups are only used for restoring to an iOS device, as such, discussion of other methods to extract data is not permitted here. -

I have been using pages for months and now I can not get it to open any templet or previous document to open?
A little more information would be helpful.
What version of Pages are you using? The latest is 4.1 with the update released on July 20. In Snow Leopard 10.6.8 you need at least Pages 4.0.5. If you're not running the latest versions & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. They must be in the iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.
If you are running at least Pages 4.0.5 & haven't made any other changes to your Mac since Pages was last working correctly, the likely culprit is corrupt preferences. Go to HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences & delete the com.apple.iwork.pages.plst & restart Pages. -

I tried to update my itune with the latest update and now i can't use itune at all . I have tried reinstalling it . all get is MSVCR80.dll and then I get Error 7 (windows erreor 126) . Need help please .
Similar problem here. iTunes11 notified me it was available. However, auto-update failed. So, I downloaded for manual update. That failed with "permission" message. I am administrator on this machine (WIN7). I tried uninstalling old version, but it failed with same permission issue. I now can't start iTunes... throws permission message. So, I'm completely dead in the water. Does this stuff get tested before it's shipped?
