Why is ios5 detroying my life? i have NEVER had such a frustrating time with an apple product. its getting to the point where im about to run everything over.

ios5: great concept. HORRIBLY executed. i KNOW im not the only one having tons of trouble with this.
before, i had a large amount of grey songs, comapred to black songs in my music app (i have a 64gb 4th gen ipod touch.) for those of you who dont know what im talking about, the grey songs are unplayable, where as the black songs are. they all play on my itunes. there are no "!" next to them.
NOW, i cant even sync songs, it seems.
i CANT back-up/restore my ipod. i have 10gb of room left on my computer. more than enough to do both of these.
my mom is having trouble with her iphone as well.
this is almost becoming a deal breaker. i REALLY hope apple has a patch or something for all of this coming out very soon.
not looking for apple snobs to tell me that i should go back to using other windows oriented devices or to tell me that i didn't follow instructions properly. apple products are made for easy use, and i did the same as i used to with previous OS's.
if you can help me, please do so. i will leave this open in a tab on my browser.

well i restarted my ipod, and now songs are showing up...for whatever reason.
there are still a lot of grey songs though.

  • I have always paid for apps with a credit card and now need to use an app store card but I can't get past the point where it keeps wanting my credit card updated.  And can't used the app card number.  Any advice???

    I have always paid for apps with a credit card and now need to use an app store card but I can't get past the point where it keeps wanting my credit card updated.  And can't used the app card number.  Any advice???

    I do NOT like using my credit card if I don't have to, and I went out of my way to go buy an Apple gift card, which I successfully redeemed into my Apple account. However, when I use the Apple "Cards" app, it will not let me use anything other than my credit card. I tried purchasing a card, hopefulling it would come out of my Apple store balance, but no such luck -- it came out of my credit card.
    Apple is becoming more like Microsoft every day.

  • Trying to set up iCloud on my MacBook Pro, and I get to the point where it tells me to view my email for further instructions to verify acct, but I have no email in my inbox, even after resending multiple times.

    Well, running on a 2006 model.  I did not have a startup disc.  Initially, it booted up on original software in 2006.  Since then, I've upgraded to 10.6 via a box set.  And, since then I think I popped it up to lion. 
    All I have on a disc is snow leopard.  And, I can't get farther than the setup screen due to hard drive.  I'm taking to a apple authorized repair store right now.  We'll see what they tell me .  I'm just going to weigh the cost of repair vs. buying new.
    Another bad, stupid thing is I had no means of backing up my stuff.  So, I might have lost things like music, vids, etc.  we'll see if they can recover.  If the cost is too much for repair I might just forget it and start over with a new system.  Just not sure at this point.

  • I have an issue where coloured dots (small squares) appear on my screen and it gets to the point where the entire screen freezes although the mouse still moves but nothing works and I need to turn the computer off at the switch. Any ideas?

    I have an issue where coloured dots (small squares) appear on my screen and it gets to the point where the entire screen freezes although the mouse still moves but nothing works and I need to turn the computer off at the switch. It doesn't happen all the time but is very annoying. Any ideas?

    Reset the SMC and PRAM, if the issue continues then you likely have a failing GPU (hardware) that requires repair. To be sure take it in and have it professionally assessed.

    Did you just update to BUGGY OS 4.x???
    All the updates starting with OS 4.x have completely screwed up most iPod Touch', especially older models like Gen 2 and 3.
    Inability to connect to any WiFi.
    Fluctuating WiFi signal no matter how close you are to the AP.
    Drastically shortened battery life, even when in sleep mode.
    And Apple hasn't done a **** thing since irritated owners have complained about it since the middle of 2011!!
    (I am one of many thousands affected!) Look at older threads by searches of "Fluctuating WiFi", Terrible Battery Life, for the Touch and iPhone.

  • Why does my iPhoto seem to get "stuck" a lot of times to the point where I have to force quit it and how do I fix it?

    Why does my iphoto seem to get "stuck" a lot of the times when I try to exit it to the point where I have to "force quit" it and how do I fix the problem that causes it?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    does this only happen when you try to quit iPhoto?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

  • Why is my mac so slow i have cleansed and cleaned it is a 2010 mac mini i5 but it runs like a 20 year old pc i have only had it for a few months and it was straight out of the box

    why is my mac so slow i have cleansed and cleaned it is a 2010 mac mini i5 but it runs like a 20 year old pc i have only had it for a few months and it was straight out of the box

    I'm thinking that you have a > Mac mini (Mid 2011) - Technical Specifications because the 2010 model's only have Core 2 Duo processors and the 2011 had the first i5 processor. 
    2 GB of RAM is the minimum requirement for Mountain Lion, but it's hardly enough to really enjoy doing anything else.
    see > Memory and Free Installation Guides for Apple Mac Mini
    Plus I don't have any problems running Mountain Lion and a load of App's on my 2010 Mac Mini with 8GB of RAM.

    Hello rafaelfromweymouth
    Start with the first article and clear out any files in the Temp folder. You may need to remove iTunes and its related software and finally make sure that you have the 64-bit version of iTunes downloaded to install.
