Why my itune don't give me the backup option for my iphone 4?

i want make a backup of my iphone but itune don't give my this option ...why?
i have the last itune and the last ios on..!

This seems like a software bug to me, or something flakey in the appletv.  Plugging in an ethernet cable shouldn't blow out a wifi chip, but mine is behaving the exact same way.  The software bug is it won't even recognize it has wifi capabilities anymore to tell you if it's a problem with wifi or not.  It just removed the menu option and won't give it back.
The same thing just happened to me.  On a whim, since the wifi was a little choppy, I plugged in the ethernet and the ethernet did not work in that room.
I can plug it into the living room ethernet and it works just fine, but now the wifi option seems now and forever gone.
I can't switch it back to wifi.  It just worked fine on wifi for months, just a little choppy on some things.  Now since plugging in an ethernet cable just once the AppleTV erased the wifi options from the menu.  I tried restoring, resetting, everything and now it only recognizes ethernet options and will not give a wifi option at all.  Since the living room ethernet works I updated, reset, restored, still, nothing gives a wifi option, even when I unplug the ethernet and reboot.
It seems like a real poor sensor to detect whether there is ethernet plugged in or not, and poor menu options not letting you choose wifi if it thinks there may be an ethernet plugged in...

    Why pages don't give me the word option?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • Why won't Apple give out the unlock code for an iPhone 3Gs when the contract was honored and I am still an AT

    Why won't Apple give out the unlock code for an iPhone 3Gs when the 2  year contract was honored and I continued to be an AT&T customer with an iPhone 4. I wanted my old 3gs unlocked so my daughter could use it overseas when she is deployed. AT&T service over there *****, the international plan was not worth it. The individual SIM cards per country are much more reliable and cheaper. Teslestial in Iraq and Afghanistan, Telecom in Croatia,Vodafphone in Germany and Italy.  Why Apple will not unlock these phones for our military to utilize is incomprehensible to me.  These young men and women are fighting for these Apple people to go to work every day, safe, to live lives they have become accustom to yet releasing a phone to use on another network they can't do at least for the military.... WHY APPLE??  WHY?   A good excuse not some of the many lame excuses I have received on the phone many times. AT&T states it is Apple that will not allow them to unlock the phones...  Please tell me why?  All I want Is my daughter to have a phone I trust, to be able to call me when she is given the free time to do so and I trust the apple phone.
    Apple, please reconsider your stance on this issue.  I am having a hard time understanding why you will not unlock the iPhone. 
    A simple code could allow me to talk to my daughter while fighting for our country the Great USA.  Apple should be on the front line and enabling those fighting for our life, liberty and pursuit of happiness to use unlocked phones on reliable local GSM networks.
    I honestly hope that someone who has some sort of authority to begin allowing the release of unlock codes, and not forcing people to unlock their phones with some program produced by some hack just to be able to use your wonderful phone.  That is is in a nutshell, People love the iPhone so much that they want the ability to use it on the most reliable GSM carrier available to them.  That should be a major compliment. Even men and women on the front line want your phone. I agree, my service is not the best where I live either, love the GSM technology so stay with it, but if I had the ability to change to the other GSM network that has much better coverage in this area of the country I would change. To change now I would not have my iPhone and that I will not part with. 
    Apple, please reconsider opening up the lock code and allow your gem of a phone to be used by many more people in many more areas and most importantly overseas fighting for our country.  I know if this is really thought about Apple would understand and come to the conclusion to release the unlock codes, and stop the people from hacking in to use the iPhone on other networks.
    I would love for my daughter to be able to use my iPhone 3gs while fighting for our Free country.
    A response would be appreciated.
    Thank you.
    An Apple customer for 10 years, phones and computers.

    Defiled:
    I did sign a two year contract and completed that contract. The 3gs is no longer in service. My daughter is going overseas to protect you and your family. I was attempting to find a way for her to have a reliable phone that could offer her some connection with home as she travels through the middle east.  She travels in missions all over.
    At&T unlocks other phones of theirs why not the iPhone?  AT&T says that Apple will not give them the code, it is not the carrier.  If I would have known this situation would have come up I would have bought and unlocked 3gs phone"Deggie" .  My main complaint is that Apple has not good excuse as to why they will not allow their phones to be unlocked from services well, AT&T .  I bought the phone full price, completed the contract terms, even went for and iPhone 4 with another2 year contract, along with owning an apple computer... I love the product.  My main issue is give me a good answer as to why you won't allow a phone to be unlocked. It doesn't hurt Apple, People still have to buy the phones from them, and use their App store and iTunes.
    Sorry, just upset about my daughter heading over there, boots on the ground, and just pray she will be safe. Would have liked to facetime her while she is in the airports and in specific areas allowed for that.
    Please don't come down on me for asking this question. I understand all the contracts etc.... but to single out the iPhone specifically to not unlock after contract is over does not seem fair.
    Thank you for your responses.

    The search bar can be very valuable...........
    In using it, I found out other's have had this issue and it likely means you have a 3G iPad?  If you do, go into settings and turn off cellular data, then try to update again and you should be OK........

  • I recently updated my phone to IOS 8.0.2 and now it wont turn on it just says to connect to itunes and when i do the only option it gives me is to restore iphone. It says it will delete all my media but i didn't do a back up what should i do?

    I recently updated my iphone 5 to IOS 8.0.2 and now it wont turn on it just says to connect to itunes and when i do the only option it gives me is to restore iphone because it is in "recovery mode". It says it will delete all my media but i didn't do a back up and i don't want to lose my photos, what should i do? (I never used iCloud to back them up either).

    If it's in recovery mode, the data is already gone. Why did you never back up your important data?

  • I want to take the photos off my iPhone and put them directly onto an external hard disk. I want to bypass iPhoto altogether. When I link my iPhone to my computer, it only opens in iTunes, which only gives me the option to save my photos to iPhoto. Help!

    I want to take the photos off my iPhone and put them directly onto an external hard disk - I don't have any room left on my computer. I want to bypass iPhoto altogether. When I link my iPhone to my computer, it only opens in iTunes, which only gives me the option to save my photos to iPhoto. Help!  This is seriously frustrating!.
    Additionally, I'd like to be able to take the 2000+ photos out of iPhoto and put them on a disk in a folder. I have managed to export them to the hard disk but it's just plonked all 2000+ photos in a list - not ideal if I want to use it for anything else. And then I have to manually delete the photos from iPhoto. Is there not a quick and easy way of dealing with this? 
    Anyone got any bright ideas? Thanks for your help!

    I too would like to be able to do this. Just put them where i want the. IFTT a scripting app will put the images in dropbox for you , but its been pretty iffy.

    Hello everybody, Im trying to update my ITunes on my MAC (laptop) to the newer version so I can then be able to update the latest updates for my Iphone-3G. I don’t require a complete reinstall just need to be able to update my itunes.
    What I have tried so far is I had my MAC search for update’s and it said that I should update to (ITunes version  10 . 6 . 3 ) So I asked it to do the update but after 2hrs of waiting for it to download/update it then puts up a message saying the following- (In order to continue installation, please close the following application: ITunes).
    When I tried to do this another message comes up that says- (The update ITunes can’t be installed. The following install step failed: run preupgrade script for Apple mobile device support. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.)
    I have also tried to run the update while having closed ITunes before I even start the update but the same problem happens after waiting about 2hrs.
    Some one that had the same problem said this might be happening in the older operating systems. But that does not make sense because surely Apple want customers who own a MAC and i-phone to still buy from iTunes.
    My MAC is about 4-5years old. I have a i-phone.3G, 
    Can anybody help me please and Thank you?

    Download iTunes using the tab at the top of this page. Then run the update with iTunes closed.

  • Embedded Youtube Video's on website's other than Youtube (e.g. GiantBomb) don't give me the option to go Fullscreen. Any Clues?

    I had to reset to Factory Settings recently and after reinstalling Firefox and some add-ons I have noticed that Youtube videos on some webistes such as Giantbomb.com or Joystiq.com for example don't give me the go fullscreen icon in the bottom right of the embedded video. Also if I click watch on Youtube they lead me to a 404. I loaded up Chrome and the proper options for the video were there so something is odd with my new installation of Firefox. I have loaded it up in Safe Mode and still the problem persists. Before the apocalypse of wiping my HDD and starting like new they worked fine. I have ran Windows Update, I have the latest Flash Player. I am can't think what it is. Any help would be great :D

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 &amp; above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:
