When syncing iPhone the message in iTunes is in a foreign language, even though iTunes is set to English.

I just got my first iPhone.  I plugged it into my pc (I already have iPod/iTunes) and registered the product.  The screen that came up immediately after registering the product is all in a Asian/character language, even though English is the set language for both the iPhone and iTunes...what is going on?!  It offers me two buttons to click, but given I can't understand either I'm not clicking anything yet.  I have disconnected and reconnected the iPhone several times.

did you find out the answer??? mine is in German! help

  • HT4972 I replaced the computer I originally used to synch my iPhone. I get the message stating that my content will be erased, even though this is the computer I now synch with. Is there a way to make the update recognize the new computer?

    I replaced the computer I originally used to synch my iPhone. When trying to update to iOS5.0, I get the message stating that my content will be erased, even though this is the computer I now synch my phone with. Is there a way to make the update recognize the new computer so that my content will be kept?

    The best option is to copy your entire iTunes folder from your old computer to your new one using one of the methods described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527.  This will allow iTunes on your new computer to recognize and sync with your phone without deleting content.  You will also need to copy over any other synced data not in your iTunes library such as photos synced to your phone, calendars and contacts.
    If you can't do this, these articles will help you start syncing with your new computer with minimal or no data loss:

  • My itunes playlist has stopped live updating even though i have set it up to do so... help?

    Hi all, I have restarted, synced, done everything I can think of to make my playlist sync to show only certain rated songs as per my selection but it's not live updating like I want it to! What can I do?

    Ok, thanks that helps. I don't have an external hard drive though. What about backing up through 'the cloud'? I'm just wondering since my husband syncs his iPod to the PC through iTunes and he's worried that he will lose all the songs on his iPod if the library is lost from iTunes and he tries to 'sync' it up again. I'm not exactly sure how to  'copy the entire iTunes folder' either. I kinda suck at this unless I have step by step instructions, which I haven't found yet on iTunes help or other sources.
    The only way I know how to back anything up is by going back to a restore point, etc. (as stated before, we don't have an external hard drive.)
    Thanks for the info.

  • My iphone time keeps messing up even though its on "set automatically" and i dont know how to fix it

    my iphone 5cs' time keeps messing up even though its set to "set automatically" the time doesnt change and i have no idea how to fix it. any help please?

    I'm having the EXACT same problem! I have a great wifi connection and it all started right after I updated it.
    I took it to the AT&T store and all they said that they could do for it was a "soft restart" which is where you hold down the lock button and the home button UNTIL you see the apple logo. And I did this like 4 times and it still messes up. When I turn it off and turn it on its fine for a few minutes but it slowly starts messing up again.
    And I'm also having several glitches. Like when I just received a text message when my phone was locked I slid it and put in my pass code then it like turned off and turned on my phone. And sometimes the messages that I send disappear from my side even though I sent them. If I turn it off then back on it's there. And also sometimes when I text a person and hit send it like backs me out of the messaging system(it still sends the message right then)  and back to the home screen.
    I called 1-800-myiphone and the lady did a "soft restart" which they call a "hard restart" and it worked for like 35 minutes and then it messed up again. And my iCloud isn't backing up my stuff so it's not like I can just completely reset my phone.

    My problem - when syncing and error messages  comes up:  iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because an error occurred while margin data."  I've tried turning the phone off and back on, & tried both USB ports but get the same thing.  What can I do next since it doesn't give me even one clue as to what the error would be?

    Before I started to resync calendars one by one as suggested in the troubleshooting article, I remembered something that came up in a sync when I first attempted :  a 'which one do you want to keep' message about a repeating calendar event, which came up with three options, one from Calendar, and two from iCal on the phone.  I deleted that event, then went through the calendar resync one by one, and all seems OK now.
    In Music there is a way to find 'ghost' items that show up as grayed-out on the menus, so that you can try to reassociate or delete them.  It would be nice to have a similar way to work with Calendar!
    Thanks for pointing me to the right article.

    Disable or turn off your firewall, anti-virus, and all security software and try the download again.

  • When trying to sync my iPhone, the message " The iPhone could not be synced because the Sync session failed to start" comes. What to do?

    When trying to sync my iPhone, the message " The iPhone could not be synced because the Sync session failed to start" appears. What to do?

    I had the same problem with my iPad 2. Tried everything suggested by others but nothing worked. Finally this is what solved it.
    1) Eject and unplug iPad. Restart MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6.8). Update iTunes to version 10.6.3 via Apple/ Software update.
    2) Plug in iPad. Start iTunes (obviously 'failed to sync' message will appear). Select device on iTunes. On Summary page do a restore of iPad. It will ask you if you want to backup your iPad. Choose to backup. You will need a fast internet connection because it will update the iPad software to the latest version before restoring.
    3) Choose to restore from backup.
    4) Finally do a sync.
    This worked for me finally after a day of trying all other methods.

    ATA bus error means that data corruption occurred during transmission over ATA bus (SATA or PATA). This type of errors can be indicated by
    ICRC or ABRT error as described in the section called “ATA/ATAPI device error (non-NCQ / non-CHECK CONDITION)”.
    Controller-specific error completion with error information indicating transmission error.
    On some controllers, command timeout. In this case, there may be a mechanism to determine that the timeout is due to transmission error.
    Unknown/random errors, timeouts and all sorts of weirdities.
    As described above, transmission errors can cause wide variety of symptoms ranging from device ICRC error to random device lockup, and, for many cases, there is no way to tell if an error condition is due to transmission error or not; therefore, it's necessary to employ some kind of heuristic when dealing with errors and timeouts. For example, encountering repetitive ABRT errors for known supported command is likely to indicate ATA bus error.
    Once it's determined that ATA bus errors have possibly occurred, lowering ATA bus transmission speed is one of actions which may alleviate the problem.
    I'd also add; make sure you have good backups when ATA errors are frequent

  • HT2729 what does the "other" category consist of when syncing iPhone

    what does the "other" category consist of when syncing iPhone

    "Other" data is real data that you put on your phone by using the built in apps. It is not music, not videos, not pictures and not App Store app data. It is "OTHER" meaning everything that does not fall into these categories. Such as:
    email messages and attachments
    Reminders
    Calendar entries
    Contacts
    Text messages
    iMessages
    MMS messages and attachments
    Genius data
    Music cover art
    Music library database index (but not the music itself)
    Operating system settings
    Safari cache
    bookmarks
    Game Center status
    Music catalog
    You will find posts from people who said they recovered over 3 GB of space by just deleting old text messages.
    If you want Other to be smaller you will have to keep less data on your phone; delete old MMS and texts, delete old email (especially from the "deleted" folder), clear the cache, eliminate cover art.
    Sometimes "Other" includes data corruption. If you suspect this is a possibility try connecting to iTunes and click the Restore iPhone button. First restore from backup; the Other doesn't get any smaller you can Restore again and set up as New, then add your content back separately from your backup.

  • ITunes on PC does not crash when syncing IPhones but crashes halfway through IPad sync

    Itunes and Ipad on latest software iterations.
    When syncing IPhones all perform faultlessly. When I try to sync. my IPad ITunes crashes halfway through the process.
    For the last two weeks I have not been able to remove downloaded TV programmes via ITunes and have had to perform the removal via
    <Settings>General>Usage>Manage storage. One audiobook is not visible on ITunes and cannot be deleted by any method I have tried.
    I am storing all media on a WDCloud drive as I have over 1.3 TBytes of films, TV Programmes and audiobooks.
    I have tried repairing both ITunes and Quicktime to no avail.
    IOS8.1.2
    Itunes

    Hi Brendan
    Thanks for the reply.
    I noticed that the sync crashed at the point where it was downloading either Apps or Video (TV Progs). I tried a 'delete all media' reset yesterday. Problem still present and then I had no media or Apps other than some of the Apps as supplied on initial startup.
    Today I tried a different USB to Lightning lead and at one point I thought it was working with Wi-Fi sync but whilst it didn't crash, the Icons of the Apps that were present on the IPad before the problem occurred are in the same place as before but greyed out and the Apps obviously have not been loaded.
    Funnily enough I did a factory re-set just before you sent this so will post again if this works to help others. I believe this is going to be an IOS 8 problem like so many other IOS 8 problems I have found.
    Best wishes
    Adrian

    Hi,
    You have 2 solutions:
    1 - You can use 2 differents icloud account
    2 - You use the same account but you don't sync yours contacts.
    You configure that in  Settings > icloud
    You activate or desactivate what you want.
    Have a nice day.

  • Itunes 10.6.1.7 keeps crashing when syncing with the new Ipad

    Glad to find this forum!
    It's been a disappointing and frustrating week for me as I have tried to sync my new ipad with itunes 10.6.1.7. Itunes keeps crashing without reasons when syncing either apps, music or videos. Btw, I am using Windows XP SP3.
    So far, I have not been able to play any videos because Itunes always crashes.
    I have tried to re-install Itunes for more than 5 times [with fresh install] but the problem still occurs. I have also tried to downgrade to Itunes 10.5.3 as suggested in the other threads but Itunes still crashes. This only happens when syncing with the new Ipad.
    I have an Ipod Nano which works great on both version of Itunes.
    I am really disappointed because I can't watch movies and/or listen to music on my new ipad because it keeps crashing.
    My wish is just simple. I just want to be able to watch movies and listen to my music on my new ipad. Sadly, this is not possible yet.
    Can anyone help?

    I get the exactly the same problem with win 7, i rang apple support who suggested i try another machine/or create another account on my machine???? why should i, stupid ipad 3rd gen is now sitting here un syncable, apple support ....tut tut very poor support, its a shame im out of the 7 day period otherwise this ipad would be going straight back, older versions of itunes worked fine, some one must know a fix for this??

    Help! I have an iPhone 4 and when I tap the "messages" thumbnail I'm not able to see a list of my text message threads.

    I contacted Verizon (my phone's carrier) and they told me to simultaneously press the on/off button and the menu button. That rebooting fixed the problem, but will I have to do this all the time? Wonderinf if I should take the phone back to the Apple store and get a new one. I've had the phone about two weeks.
