• update to iTunes, prompting 9.2.1 phone already has

  My iTunes is prompting me to update my phone to 9.2.1 iOS but I've already done directly on the phone about a week ago. Everyone knows this? Is there a problem or corruption going on?

  It does not work properly. Apple has fixed iOS 9.2.1 to solve the problem of 53 error.

• How iTunes will include marketing / given blank media library?

  Scenario: an accident is stupid enough, I formatted the disk external USB I said iTunes to store all its media (using iTunes preferences). Since I got the vast majority of the data from the formatted disk (Stellar Phoenix to the rescue). It includes: music I ripped from CDs, movies I ripped the DVD, "digital copies" when it was a thing, as well as everything I bought on iTunes. It is NOT in the original folder structure and file names are still the same. It is also worth noting that I have iTunes game.

  Question: iTunes is going to do when I start it? It has been closed since the show. I intend that it points to an array of newly purchased raid an external USB 3 and my hope is that iTunes will:

  • Let me download all my music.
  • Let me download all my purchased movies (and books, apps, etc.).
  • Alow me to identify the location of the missing files, including the DVD rippe.

  .. and all this together on the new external drive.

  Is anyone able to confirm the desired behavior, or lack thereof? And someone has any advice... ?

  For the curious, iTunes behaves as desired. With the intact library (on my local hard drive), it simply could not find the corresponding files - but it did not cause of aberrant behavior.

  I am able to download "all" my music (although it comes out of the music was not in iTunes game - particularly my old DRM'ed iTunes purchases), all my movies purchased and all my TV shows purchased. iTunes prompts me to "locate" the files that were missing for individual items, so it'll be a job from me to re - associate my DVD rippe and 'digital copies. I can also re - associate some of my old music of DRM'ed, but it's a little, so that could get ugly.

• ITunes authorization

  When I tried to sync my iPhone6 with ITunes, he kept saying that my computer was not authorized, then when I tried to allow it, he said that it was already authorized.  Then he asked a password for a computer, I had when he there was that dial-up networking.  Something is not.  After synchronization, my music had many double reading lists, but some of them had only one or two songs.  I cancelled all computers and it has so authorized, but he still asked me to authorize the computer.  I would hesitate to connect my iPhone to the computer, because iTunes is so strangely at this stage.  Is anyone else having these problems?  I tried the cat with the support, but they did not understand what was going on.

• iTunes password after each purchase request

  I'm trying to update my music and the purchase of new songs, but iTunes prompts me to enter my password for each purchase. I did research to find a solution, but are slow to come to one that works. Maybe I'm missing something simple, but I can't seem to find where I can disable this option.

• Library to transfer to the new computer

  I synced my music library (100 + concerts) on my new computer with a transfer cable iTunes displays all albums and playlists but will play no.  Error message:... original file is not found.  Ideas?

  Hello there doron34,

  It seems to me that you moved the library to a new computer, but for some reason, iTunes cannot read the contents. It might be possible that iTunes is pointing to the library on the original computer, to verify that use this item to select the local library on your computer:

  Open a different iTunes library file or create a

  If this is not the case, there is always the possibility to locate this file when iTunes prompts and you should get a prompt asking you if you want than iTunes to do the same for other media that are not. If that does not solve the problem, then I then recommends removing the copied library and by following the steps described in the following article.

• Size update iOS 9.3.5?

  What is the size of the update ios 9.3.5 supposed to be?

  I have connected my iphone 5 c to my macbook, open itunes, and itunes prompted me to download the update. The size of the update said 1.59 GB. I read that this is only supposed to be between 30 and 40 MB, so I was suspicious and suspended the update.

  

  iTunes updates are complete IOS files, not only the delta files like the Wi - Fi on the Air to date. You're ok, no problem.

• "Already authorized" patches do not work

  Before moving from 10.8 to El Capitan, I started an audio book on my iPhone. The book had been purchased by my wife using its identifier.  I had allowed since my computer then sync'd.  After the upgrade to El Capitan, 16 elements in my iTunes library cannot be sync'd and the audio book is one of them.

  I've tried everything here: If iTunes prompts to authorize your computer when you try to read purchases on iTunes Store - Apple Support

  I désautorisé my computer and nothing works.

  When I go to play the book on my computer, it wants to connect to apple ID. my wife he is not supposed to work this way. When I use my own appleid, it is said that it is already permitted. TIA

  Sigh.

  In addition, setting up family sharing Apple so my wife and I are all two of a family does not solve the problem.

• Account menu items do not respond

  Is no longer, I can sync any media purchased iTunes and my iOs devices. All I get is the prompt to authorize but when I click on allow nothing happens except that the just prompt returns (dozens of times, think that I tried). There is no demand for apple ID or password.

  Worse yet, it's that I can play is no longer bought any media on my iMac (mid 2011) even though I am connected to my apple account.

  I also did the disconnect on my Macbook pro (mid-2014) retina error so now I can no longer connect to my account in iTunes on this system.

  I can also check my account details or use the menu to allow items.

  Furthermore, the menu items are not greyed out. They just don't do anything. (I checked this using the monitor activity and hands Off)

  Or buy anything in the iTunes store. The button 'Download' just greys out and then nothing happens.

  I ran through all the steps described in this document, but nothing helped.

  I also tried in safemode, turning all firewalls (built in and paws!) once again without success.

  Tried to restart my router network and airport: again no no is made.

  Tried the WIFI and Wired: nothing.

  tried to delete all the files in iTunes preferences: again no help

  Still unknown is just my Powerbook enjoyed pro (2009) works perfectly.

  All the computers running 10.11.5 and all versions of iTunes are 12.4.0.119 all iOS devices running 9.3.2

  I suspect an iTunes break bug, so I also presented a report bug to Apple, but if anyone has any other ideas. Please let me know

  I'm at my wits end.

  Edit:

  The old macbook pro introduced with the same problems as of today, where, as it operated normally yesterday. All have the same problem.

• iPhone 6 - display lights not on; need to remove photos from phone

  Hello

  Two nights ago my phone is dead, and I do not have a charger certified by apple for the re - load. I tried to use imitations, but she would not charge from 1 percent.  When I got home, I connected it to my computer with my apple power cord and it started to load. The screen worked and I was able to access my applications, photos, etc.  I * think * the device was recognized as "IPhone Kimberlee 2nd" or something like that on iTunes, but I am not sure that I was just happy he was charging at that time there.

  When I got about 50-60% of the battery, the screen all of a sudden would not turn on.  I was able to turn off the phone by pressing the power and the homescreen for 15 seconds, and then pressing the power button to turn it back on.  But the screen remains black. I received notifications for emails and SMS and the ringtone to vibrate control worked.

  Then iTunes prompted me to update the software on my iPhone, I did.  Still not illuminate the screen.  In addition, at this point, my only option in iTunes is to "restore" a back that was before I got my iPhone 6 (probably my last backup to my iPhone 4) or "put in place the new phone.  I'm also not able to sycn or remove pictures through my vs PC via iTunes. Given that the screen is black and iTunes does not recognize my iPhone, I can't take action on my current iPhone.

  At this point, I want to really just get my photos out of there before I do more troubleshooting or DIY.  Once my photos are turned off, I'd be fine with restoring my phone. I'm sure that I was not backup via my iCloud because I had too many photos, so I disabled it (probably a bad idea in hindsight).

  So, is it possible to get my photos off my phone when my screen is not working and the iPhone is not recognized in iTunes?  If I have "set up as new phone" will that erase data, photos, etc. on my current phone?

  Any help is appreciated. Thank you!!

  If the phone is not recognized by iTunes how did you do the other steps in your message? If it is recognized that you could try to import pictures in the article below explains. If not, your only option with a black screen is to take it to an Apple Retail Store for evaluation.

• IPad 12.7 froze on the initial commissioning - updated

  Hi my Ipad froze on the initial update after the start of 9.2 to 9.3.2.

  Subsequent attempts have failed and an error 53 rises.

  When the Ipad is not connected I only connect to itunes prompt & he can't go down the Restore screen

  Tried several different things with no luck

  Hello.

  Press the sleep/wake and home buttons and keep them for at least 10 seconds.

  If this is not enough, take a look at these articles Support from Apple:

  If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch does not respond or does not turn on - Apple Support

  Use iTunes to restore the iPhone, iPad or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support.

  As a final step, try recovery mode. Turn off your unit, then plug it to your computer with the hold home button. Hold down Home button until you see the logo on the screen of your iPhone iTunes. After that on your computer, you should see the iTunes window saying that your iPhone needs to be restored to factory settings. Click Restore.

• Possible Hijack, System get "changed" or perhaps "partially virtualized" virus strange very important situation

  I have a problem with 2 computers and its kind of a large.  Hard to know where to start so I'll keep it short, but I think it may concern even Microsoft, because it involves the use of what I believe to be false "terms of service" or small print and I knew even where the source of this problem is, but I really need help! Myself and others use laptops we bought together.  We live in a family, but laptops, a TOSHIBA and a HP/COMPAQ F700 satellite, as well as what I call a wireless router belong to the USA! We are connected through this wireless device, a PRISM which is perhaps a bit older, but of course seems to work, it is plugged into a modem cable motorola belonging to someone else in the House.  To make things moving along, he came to our attention that A: our systems periodically change without our permission, by that I mean that the toshiba that was purchased at walmart brand new, came with an Intel Celeron, and I think THAT the wireless card IS an atheros brand.  I KNOW that was the case with the Compaq regarding the wireless adapter, and Compaq was bought at a rent to own store and came with a 1 GB ram AMD processor.  For some reason, we are under some form of control Admin, and our system is changing periodically on BOTH computers to say his family chipset intel and our wireless adapters will go to realtek USB 2.0, once again on BOTH computers.  When this happens, our user accounts admin, that we had as an administrator user accounts AND I have unlocked the hidden via the cmd prompt and hold SHIFT + ENTER thing, will be signed in some way limit our ability to do things.  LAST FEW DETAILS, I promise you: the so-called matrix memory of intel as magically appeared with software RAID of surveillance and we saw our event logs, which we prob didn't know existed, being transferred by a remote user, and we have never consulted the remote adjustment, except in order to turn them off, as well as file sharing options.  However they continue to change when this happens.  Yesterday, to finish that, I found strange things after doing a thing of complete system repair, not for the first time, this time on the compaq.  After the repair, which seemed fine at first, I was embarrassed to find a few shortcuts readme present in the recently amended on the start menu folder.  I followed them to the folder locations that led me to the prog. files, THE SIMS 2, and various subfolders with S.W.R. claiming to be from MICROSOFT and don't mention any particular O.S. except with reference to .NET and some virtualization programs that we noticed the menu running task.  OH, I shouldn't forget that with the processor changes in both pc, THEY BOTH now say that they ar x 86 client or PC workstation and a recent attempt on the repair of the system or pressing f8 on the toshiba somehow led me to a weird command prompt which began with X : ??  I'm prob a few things set aside even if it is really long, but the SIMS 2 folder is very disturbing because a person who lives here once gave us a CD on an old computer that has not been used for at least 3 years and we have certainly not installed this game WE NEITHER of these new computers.  I SUSPECT SOME things but don't know what to do.  I TRIED to get our product off the coast of the TOSHIBA key but was said previously by a repairman it seems to have BEEN DELETED!  The records in question, according to me, are always on both pc and we executed the software suggested, including microsoft security databases, s.s.and destroy, and the malewarebytes thing, as well as to have a repair shop gives us some tips. They said several things, like the toshiba tried to boot from the drive cd/DVD, then boot pxe or something and someone had changed the wake on lan option, and maybe other things I do not remember.  OK SORRY FOR ALL this THAT REALLY, but I wanted to make sure that I gave as much information as possible because we never wanted our PC clone, virtualized, or something like that, whatever realtek usb 2.0 is, it's another icon of the wireless connection in the tray on the lower right AND THE COMPAQ is REMAINED CONNECTED WITH the off switch wireless?  Help!

  Thank you for your gracious reply. It certainly sounds to me like your computers are compromised. As I said, the only way to fix now is to restore as long as the plant once more after you back up your data and then set them up by the suggestions below. It costs you nothing but time. I'll also give you my general information on the configuration of the network wireless safely. Unfortunately, you must have control of the wireless router to do this. If you do not, then consider doing your own Internet connection and wireless router. Addition to the steps of General safety below, make sure that file/printer sharing is DISABLED.
  
  The result of all this is to keep on the front of your mind is that security, physical access to a machine trumps all. If you do not trust the people with whom you live and/or people who visit them, you have to keep the computer with you or in a locked environment that no one else can enter. And of course the locks can be chosen. Or find the best people to live with. I understand that this is not possible in your real world, but I'm telling you all the options.

  Computer security - any computer running an operating system is accessible by a person with 1) physical access; (2) time; (3) jurisdiction; (4) tools of. There are a few things you can do to make it a little more difficult but:

  1. define a password in the BIOS that must be entered before starting the operating system. Also to set the supervisor password in the BIOS so the BIOS configuration cannot be entered without it.

  2. starting at the BIOS, change the order of boot to hard drive first.

  3. set strong passwords on all accounts, including the built-in XP administrator account (it is disabled by default in Vista).

  4. If you leave your own account connected, use Windows key + L to lock the computer (or set the screen/power economy saver) when you step away from the computer and require a password to use.

  5. do the other accounts of users limited in XP Home, regular user accounts in XP Pro. All users must be on a Standard account in Vista with an administrator account (called something like 'Tech' or 'CompAdmin') only used for purposes of elevation.

  6. If more than one person uses the computer user set permissions/restrictions:

  If you have XP/Vista/Windows 7 Home, you don't have the built-in ability to create fine-grained limits. In XP and Vista, you can use the Security Console or MVP Doug Knox or the program MS SteadyState to set restrictions as you wish. SteadyState now supports Vista but not Windows 7. Mr. Knox security console may still work in Win7.

  Please understand that these are technical answers to what is essentially a technical problem and there are ways around these precautions. It is a problem of family / interpersonal which cannot be solved by technical means.

  Establishing a safe wireless router - have a computer connected to the router with an ethernet cable. Examples given are for a Linksys router. See the manual of your router or the router mftr's Web site. for the parameters by default if you don't have a Linksys. Open a browser such as Internet Explorer or Firefox and in the address bar type:

  http://192.168.1.1 [Enter] (it is default IP address of the router, which varies from router to router then check your manual)

  This will bring you to the login screen of the router. The default username is blank and the Linksys default password is "admin" without the quotes. Enter this information. You are now in the configuration of the router utility. Your configuration utility may be slightly different from mine. The first thing to do is to change the password by default because everyone knows the default passwords for different routers.

  Click the Administration link at the top of the page. Enter your new password. MAKE A NOTE SOMEWHERE THAT YOU WILL NOT LOSE. Re-enter the password to confirm it, and then click Save settings at the bottom of the page. The router will reboot and show you the box of connection again. Do not fill in the user name and put it in your new password to enter the configuration utility.

  Now, click on the link wireless at the top of the page. Change the network name (SSID) wireless by default to something, you'll recognize. I suggest that my clients not use their surname as the SSID. For example, you might want to name your network wireless network "CastleAnthrax" or similar. ;-)

  Click on save settings and when you get the prompt that your changes were successful, click the wireless security link which is just beside the Basic Wireless Settings link (where you changed your SSID). Most computers purchased during the last 4 years have the wireless hardware that will support WPA2-Personal (also known as WPA2-PSK). This is the desired encryption level. If your wireless hardware is older, use WPA. Don't use WEP, because who is easily broken within minutes. So go ahead and set the Security Mode WPA2-Personal. Do this and enter a password. For example, you could use the password ' here be dragons, beware you scurvy dogs! The password is what you enter on all computers that are allowed to connect to the wireless network. MAKE A NOTE SOMEWHERE THAT YOU WILL NOT LOSE.

  At this point, your router is set up and if the computer that you use to configure the router will normally connect wireless, disconnect the ethernet cable and wireless of the computer should see your new network. Enter the password that you have created (exactly as you wrote it with all capital letters and punctuation) to join the network and start surfing.

• Can not stop iCloud Install at the Windows prompt in iTunes

  I get this prompt in iTunes for Windows (twice in an hour now) asking me to "Install iCloud for Windows?" with a button "ICloud download for Windows...» "and a button"Remind Me later "; the only other button is the red X button in the upper right, which I already clicked before. I'm just trying to sync my library.

  How can I stop this? I don't need 'Photo Stream' on my PC... It's too intrusive and disrespectful of Apple to ask me about it with no option of disengagement. Apple has not generally been seller insisting with their products, and it makes me less confident of them.

  What you might try is to go and install iCloud on your PC.  Then disconnect from iCloud, and uninstall it according to the bottom of this link:

• I backed up my iPhone 3GS on iTunes. Back up seemed to go OK. iTunes then prompted me to update the iOS that I did. The phone then crashed. I did a factory restore. The backup that I did was not there. Can I recover the loss upward in anyway?

  I backed up my iPhone 3GS on iTunes. Back up seemed to go OK. ITunes then prompted me to update the iOS that I did. The update failed. My phone broke. The only option available was to restore to factory settings I've done. The back up I had made was not available for restore. It contains precious family photos and videos. Is anyway to recover the lost or any part of it from my PC Backup? Any help would be appreciated. Best wishes Giles

  If you go to iTunes and watch your backups, you don't see one that was made today? Did you see an indication of the backup was not successful? What version of iOS is the device that you have been asked to update? It was not an iOS for the iPhone 3GS update in a while. Regarding the photos and videos, you had never taken the time to import them on the computer?
