When I try to restore my iPod touch 4g with the ios 5.1.1 downloaded on iTunes, I get either error 3194 or 16xx. How do I fix this? I'd rather not dish out $200 for a new iPod.

Just tried restoring and it's stuck at "Preparing iPod for restore..." and the iPod is stuck on the connect to iTunes screen.

The following provides instructions for resolving those errors.

My new Photoshop Elements 12 has a RAW file plug-in, but when I try OPEN to select a photograph, there are only generic icons instead of pictures-- I can't tell one photograph from another! How can I fix this so I can tell which photograph I want to open?

The first thing I did was UPDATE. I have all the latest updates available (according to the updater). The Camera Raw Plug-in says it is version 8.0.
The RAW files are from a Canon T3i. It's a very common camera, I can't believe it wouldn't be supported.

I am suddenly having a problem with my iMac - when I try to restart or shut down, it hangs on a gray screen, and I have to hard reset to turn it off. How do I fix this?

My Ipod Touch 32gb 4g home button has started freezing. I press home and it only occasionally works. How can i fix this?

I want to know is it the software or is it broken.
I press home to return to the main menu and it 40% of the time works. It makes using the Ipod difficult and uncomfortable and i'm really dissapionted and don't want to use it for fear that it will get worse.
Not only this but sometimes when i press lock screen it just flashes the screen.
I updated to Ios5 recently and had no problems. I have 1GB of memory left. All my apps are functioning no bother.
I havent bashed my ipod around, the screen only has minor scratches so i don't think i've been careless however my broter and sister regularly use it too so it doesn't have much rest time.
Also is it better to power off or lock screen at night?
I thank you for any replies, does anybody else have the same problem?

Hi Rob - thanks so much for your help! Could you tell me what "air sever or reflector apps." are? and where can I look for information about them?
Do you use them on the Ipad or on the PC?
Do I need a cable too and which one?
Sorry... I am not very technical as you can see, thanks for your help.

I not so recently changed my email adress I associated with my Apple ID and my iCloud ID. My old email still shows up for iCloud, and won't let me change it to my new email. When I try to delete it and replace it with the proper email, it wants my password, which it won't accept because it's an invalid username.

I had this same issue and got it resolved very simply when I contacted Apple SUpport

You normally need to provide some sort of payment method (in part as proof of residence in the country) before you can get even the free apps. It is possible to set up a new iTunes Store account just for free apps, but you have to create a new Apple ID; you cannot use an existing one. If you want to do that, take a look here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is critical. Note again that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID.
You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free content without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)

Try:
- Restore from backup. See:

- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

HT4623 Hi, I have an iPod touch 2G with an iOS of 4.2.1 and there are no updates available for my device, I want to download an older version of iBooks that is compatible with my device. Pls what can I do?

Hi, I have an iPod touch 2G with an iOS of 4.2.1 and there are no updates available for my device, I want to download an older version of iBooks that is compatible with my device. Pls what can I do?

- The 2G iPod can only go as high as iOS 4.2.1. It does not have the hardware to support a higher iOS version.
- Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.
- You can only download the current version from the App store.

You can only update via the ipod with ios 5 or later.
You need to update via itunes on your computer as always.

Since i have upgradet my ipod touch 3g with the new 5.0.1 version, i can`t upload music or pictures or apps or anything else. the synchronize button is gray and allows nothing. the i tunes version is the 10.5.3 ... please help me!

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

When I try to restore my iPod touch 4g with the ios 5.1.1 downloaded on iTunes, I get either error 3194 or 16xx. How do I fix this? I'd rather not dish out $200 for a new iPod.
