When I went to update ios7 it came up as plus into iTunes. When I plug it into iTunes it's making me retire my phone but has been on "contacting the iPhone update server" for over a half hour. What do I do?
To clarify, I meant to say, when I plug my phone into my computer and connect to ITunes.

My iMac seems to have frozen during the update- how long should I expect the update to take? The 'installing software update' bar is still showing itself working but has been stuck in the same position for over an hour. Any thoughts?
Update2: There is something very wrong with wireless on mountain lion recovery. I don't know what the problem is, but this link may explain:
http://osxdaily.com/2012/08/10/os-x-mountain-lion-10-8-1-beta-released-for-dev-t esting-may-include-wi-fi-fix/
Wireless recovery would start out with over 25 hours estimated and kept on failing. It turns out to be a two step process of downloading a few Mbytes then a 4Gbyte .dmg file, but I couldn't even download the Mbyte file. I bought the thunderbolt to gigabit ethernet adapter, plugged it in, restarted recovery and download of a little more than 4Gbytes took less than an hour. My limiting factor was probably comcast home internet rate of 12Mbps. The wi-fi wireless connection should be able to do over 100Mbps, so wireless shouldn't be much slower than wired, except wi-fi wireless is broken. Now that ML is installed and updated, wi-fi seems fine now, as I am using it right now, but I haven't tried downloading a big file yet.
Don't use wi-fi wireless for Mountain Lion recovery. -
HT4623 Contacting the iPhone activation server display
I waited 10 hours for ios 7.02 to download. Then up comes,'Contacting the iPhone activation server' display....for 5 hours! What am I supposed to do? Do I disconnect from iTumes and carry on? Or stay connected and wait til it contacts the iPhone activation server?
Hi ingerjay,
If your iPhone is still displaying that message, I would consider that symptom to fall under this troubleshooting article:

Exception has been thrown by the type of initializer for 'Com.Apple.IPCU.Ma
Hello, sorry I do not speak very good English. I have a problem post, when I launch the iPhone Configuration Utility, I get the following error: "Exception has been thrown by the type of initializer for 'Com.Apple.IPCU.ManagedMobileDevice . MobileDevice '. Does a person have a solution. Thank you
I don't have a specific resolution but I have written many synch plugins and I don't recall seeing this error before.
So your synch plugin is for items ... if there are no items in the queue that explains why you don't see any errors. As soon as you add an item you get errors in 2 places ... that's probabaly because synch plugins and be configured to run "before" or "after" the WebTools synch so the core synch needs to load the dll and see when it's supposed to call it.
Since you get this error in 2 places, I don't think it's related to your specific code (especially since you used the tester app).
My guess is it's related to security/permissions.
Try this, right click the dll in the plugins folder and select properties and see if there's a button at the bottom to "UnBlock" the file.
If you don't see the button, try re-assigning the parent folder permissions. Right click the plugins folder, select Properties / Security / Advanced. Click checkbox for "Replace permission entries on all child objects ...." and click OK.
Do you have your own dll for DataAccess (or anything else) that your plugin needs? In the past I've had to copy this dll to the SynchManger folder instead of into the plugins folder with the synch plugin dll. -
how can I find our photos on our iPad they are not in photo stream but have been sent from our iPhone over icloud
Hi...
Tap the Photos icon in the Dock at the bottom of of the screen.
If you don't see the photos there, tap Settings > iCloud
Turn Photo Stream off then back on then restart your iPad.
Hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off. After it is off, press the power button to turn it back on -

My iPhone 4 vibrated for over 3.5 hours yesterday, I was not able to make it stop?
My iPhone 4 vibrated for 3.5 hours yesterday I was not able to turn off. The phone got hot and now I am staring at a black screen
Same thing happened to me on the w/end. I have since read (see link below) that pressing the 2 main buttons simultaeneously to reboot is the only possible solution, however, I did this until my fingers were too sore to continue, & the thing just wouldn't shut-down. Left it on a pile of washing overnight to muffle the noise whilst it wore itself out. Re-charged it the next day & has returned to life since, however am noticing a few buggy things with it eg: Music play-back getting scrambled & flicking itself off, & the voice control feature turning itself on randomly. Not surprised,
any device vibrating for that long continuously is definitely not good.

Apple definitely need to get a handle on this one. -

Message, "Contacting the iPhone activation server"
I've had that message up for the last hour, after 2 hours of "Accessing iTunes Store," and I'm assuming that the servers may be bogged down and that's why it's been stuck on it for so long. But that is the problem, can I unplug my phone and just try again later or will that screw something up?
I encountered the same problem with my new iphone 3GS last night while i was trying to update to os 3.0.1.(froxen connect to itunes screen-iphone stuck in recovery mode-and every attemt to perform the restore fuction resulted in the message "unknown error 3014"
After a lot of frustrating attemts to solve the problem using the solutions that were on apple's support site.I googled it and came up with this "http://blog.mcchouse.com/2009/08/iphone-os-301-update-error-3014.html that worked right away.It seems there is a servers issue that causes the problem. -
I can't access the internet using Firefox. My internet connection is working perfectly fine as I can access the internet using internet explorer. I don't feel safe using internet explorer and prefer Firefox. Please help!
See --> [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Cannot%20connect%20after%20upgrading%20Firefox Cannot connect after upgrading Firefox]
Your firewall may not recognize the new version of Firefox; it is just doing its job. You may need to remove references to Firefox from your firewall's allowed applications list, then try to go to any website, let your firewall detect the new version of Firefox, and give Firefox the permissions needed by your firewall to access the internet.

Thats pretty much it.
Took the video less just over a week ago, subsequent videos and pics have been uploaded without issue and are easy to locate.
Just cant find the couple of videos from that day.
Cheers
MCJI agree with LowLister, the best option for you to share the video online is to upload it to your online storage account for example : Box, Dropbox, SkyDrive (All of them provide free storage beginning from 2GB).
You can upload the files which you want to share in this online storage and then they have sharing options in which you'll will get the link of the file to be sent and send the email. You're good to go!
Tip : You can store multiple files for backup purposes. -
I went to update to the new ios and my phone immediately went into recovery mode. I called apple and they said I had to restore my iphone 5. I did what they told me to do through iTunes on my macbook and now the box that says Contacting the IPhone software update server has been there for 4 hours with no progress.
It can not do that all by itself.
When you plugged it in, iTunes said 'Oh goody! You got a new phone! Would you like to make it just like your old phone?'...
You explicitly said 'Yes'.
You can't undo that.
No backup of the current state of the new phone was made. It was wiped and the last backup of your old phone was restored to it.
Anything you had on the new phone is gone. -
i cant update my iphone and i tried going on my pc on itunes and clicking check for update button but it says that "itunes could not contact the iphone software update server because you are not connected to the internet". But i checked my internet on both my pc and iphone and tried again but it still says the same thing. plzz plzz help
Were you definitely connected to the internet at the time? If you don't have iOS 5 on your iPhone then the only way to update it would be via iTunes, once updated to the latest version of iOS you'll be able to update your iPhone without connecting to iTunes "over-the-air".
Before updating however it goes without saying to Backup your iPhone, this should happen by default upon connecting your iPhone to iTunes.
