When restoring a replacement mini, does it take 24hrs?

I just got a new mini due to my old one breaking and getting a free one w/ my warantee.
My uncle(who was there when getting the ipod) said that the guy told him that i need to charge it(or do sumthin, naby resore, not sure) for 24 hours.
i have not put ne music on it yet. I installed itunes and did the restore process already, but when i connected my ipod w/ i tunes, it did not show "Steven's Ipod" on the left side. so i decided to restore it again.
When u restore an ipod, does it put music on it?

When you restore an iPod it wipes everything off of it. then you will be propted to name the iPod, register ect ect. after that you will unplug it, reconnect it and iTunes should open and then transfer music, playlist ect ect to it.
First thing you need to do is download and install the latest iPod updater to your PC here http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
Once you download and install it you will goto (In Windows) start button>programs>iPod>Updater 2006-03-23 with the iPod connected to the PC. then you can restore or update the software on your iPod.
More on restoring can be found here http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983

Just bought an ipad2 for my wife and d display is not as sharp as mine and it gets warm when in use and mine does not. Mine is 32gb and hers is 16gb

Bunzez-
I agree. Mine is 64gb, and the most warmth I notice seems to be where I was holding it.
The result of excess heat would be that its battery would run down faster than it should. With a full charge, it should run at least eight hours, maybe ten. Someone mentioned that their iPad charge went down ten percent per hour.
The iPad normally stays on all the time, and is put to sleep by pressing the Sleep button. In the sleep mode, it draws extremely low current, so the battery does not run down for many days. With yours in the sleep mode, does it still get hot?
Regardless, I think the display problem is reason enough to take it to the Apple Store Genius. If there is no Apple Store near you, look for an Apple Authorized Repair Center. There may be one in your city. In the US, <United States>. Outside the US, <http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1434>.

Should your ipad be off when charging and how long does it take

Should ipad be on or off when charging and how long does it take?

You can turn it off and charge it or turn it on and charge it. No need to turn it off actually.

It depends on the charge level before start charging.

In Restore mode - how long does it take? It keeps looping? HELP!!!!

Hi - I have had NO problems with my iPhone until I have recently tried to upgrade the software through iTunes.
During the update, the phone was unplugged from the USB cord. Now when I connect it to the Restore, it gets 'stuck' on the Restoring iPhone Software part. I have an apple logo on my phone and that circle keeps turning and turning. It turned for about an hour and a half when I unplugged it because I thought it was stuck. I tried the reboot (holding the home button and the sleep/wake button) and now I get the 'sync to iTunes' pic whenever I turn on my iPhone. I am trying a Restore again, and the same thing is happening.
Am I just impatient or should the restore take over 1.5 hours? I am not getting any error messages but the progress bar on the Restoring iPhone software... is full but the little wheel on the phone just keeps turning.
I am SO upset as I need my phone for work and now I just keep getting the sync to iTunes pic and NO PHONE!!! HELP PLEASE!!! Do I just wait it out or is something wrong? (FYI - I am on a PC)

Does your computer have USB 2 ports, or USB 1.1? USB 2 is 35 times faster than USB 1.1; a restore takes about 10 minutes with USB 2, so I would not be surprised if it takes 6 hours on USB 1.1. It also may not finish at all. Next check that the phone is fully charged, that it connects directly to a USB port on the back of the computer and not to a hub, and that there are no other power-using devices connected (Printer, keyboard and mouse are not power-using).

DUAL APPLE IDS ON IPAD2: want to reduce to 1 when restoring to iPad mini. How to do it?

In 2010 my wife purchased iPad2 which was set up via my Apple ID on my iMac. When iCloud showed up we inadvertently synched it with my iMac. We now want to go our separate ways, electronically, because she got an iPad mini. So we want to dump the iPad2 data onto the new Mini without involving my original apple ID at all. She has her own Apple ID and her iPad2 on iCloud and that's what we want to transfer to the Mini. How can we get the data from the iPad2 to the mini without getting my Apple ID/iCloud involved. I have a new Mac Pro, but if we synch with that it'll just be deja vu all over again; if we use iCloud my ID will be used.
Thanks for any help.

On the iPhone, go to all of the apps that use his Apple ID, log out, and log in with yours:
Settings/iCloud
Settings/iTunes&App Stores
Settings/iMessage
Settings/FaceTime
Settings/Game Center
The only issue you will have is apps purchased or downloaded using his Apple ID will require his password any time they are updated, as content is tied to the Apple ID it was installed with.

When I open Firefox, why does it take so long for my home page (which is aol) to load?

Really nothing more to say, it just takes so long to open my home page I get annoyed and close it out. Please help cause I really like Firefox and it worked alot faster when I first installed it.

Reset the homepage to something else, or do not use a home page at all.
See [[How to set the home page]]

When restoring a 3g iphone does it require itunes to reactivate?

If I restore my 3g or wipe it while out in the field do I have to connect it to Itunes to work? I know with the 2g Iphone you can only make emergency calls once you restore or wipe. Has anyone confirmed this. I know the activation process is different now with the 3g iphone.

Restores are performed in iTunes, so you're already connected and can immediately re-activate. If you use the Settings > General erase settings/content command, you would need to connect to iTunes to do anything other than make emergency calls, yes.

IPhone Restore: How long does it take?

My iPhone needs to be restored. How long does it take to restore and then restore the iPhone from the backup?

Hard to say, it depends on your iphone model, the data to back up and the number of apps installed adding their part of data to the backup.
If you copy all the pictures from the camera roll before and delete the original files, it should be under one hour, close to 30min using a 3G. Also transfer your videos before you start.
See what else is part of the backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766

Hi,
I purchased a iMAC off eBay. I was wondering how do I take off the previous owner name and replace mines? I reset all passwords to log in,but his name in the mac keeps showing up.
Thanks,

Before buying a second-hand computer, you should have run Apple Diagnostics or the Apple Hardware Test, whichever is applicable.
The first thing to do after buying the computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You—not the original owner—must do that. Changes made by Apple over the years have made this seemingly straightforward task very complex.
How you go about it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
It's unsafe, and may be unlawful, to use a computer with software installed by a previous owner.
1. If you don't own another Mac
a. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller—not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine is very old and has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
b. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for a MacBook Air. You should have received the media from the original owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To start up from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then restart the computer and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
c. If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should start up in Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
d. Some 2010-2011 models shipped with OS X 10.6 and received a firmware update after 10.7 was released, enabling them to use Internet Recovery. If you have one of those models, you can't reinstall 10.6 even from the original media, and Internet Recovery will not work either without the original owner's Apple ID. In that case, contact Apple Support, or take the machine to an Apple Store or another authorized service provider to have the OS installed.
2. If you do own another Mac
If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to prepare a USB device, then start up the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can start from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
3. Partition and install OS X
a. If you see a lock screen when trying to start up from installation media or in Recovery mode, then a firmware password was set by the previous owner, or the machine was remotely locked via iCloud. You'll either have to contact the owner or take the machine to an Apple Store or another service provider to be unlocked. You may be asked for proof of ownership.
b. Launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive—not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
c. An unusual problem may arise if all the following conditions apply:
          OS X 10.7 or later was installed by the previous owner
          The startup volume was encrypted with FileVault
          You're booted in Recovery mode (that is, not from a 10.6 installation disc)
In that case, you won't be able to unlock the volume or partition the drive without the FileVault password. Ask for guidance or see this discussion.
d. After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. If you're installing a version of OS X acquired from the App Store, you will need the Apple ID and password that you used. When the installation is done, the system will automatically restart into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
e. Run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the original owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed—you have to repurchase them.
4. Other issues
a. If the original owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're irrevocably linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Mac App Store Customer Service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
b. If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.
c. When trying to create a new iCloud account, you might get a failure message: "Account limit reached." Apple imposes a lifetime limit of three iCloud account setups per device. Erasing the device does not reset the limit. You can still use an iCloud account that was created on another device, but you won't be able to create a new one. Contact iCloud Support for more information. The setup limit doesn't apply to Apple ID accounts used for other services, such as the iTunes and Mac App Stores, or iMessage. You can create as many of those accounts as you like.

HT4060 how long does it take to charge the battery for a mini Ipad from 1% to 100% ?

how long does it take to charge a mini Ipad battery completely from 1% to 100%?

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

Hello Sean,
It sounds like you are constantly needing to restore your phone because it keeps going into recovery mode. Usually putting a device into recovery mode and restoring it can help isolate an issue to your iPhone hardware if an issue persists afterwards. I would try manually putting it into recovery mode and restoring it 1 more time:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

If that does not resolve it the symptoms indicate to me that it is a hardware issue causing this to happen and would seek service for it:
