  new iphone 6s said needs to update itunes before restoring from itunes? How do update you a phone not yet active?

  You need to update the version of iTunes on your computer, not the iPhone.

  If you are using a Mac, use the App Store app to install iTunes updates available.

  If you are using Windows, download the latest version of iTunes from the Apple website.

• I'm trying to uninstall iTunes from the PC with Windows 7, but get a message "the feature you are trying to use is on a network unavailable resource." How to get around this? (Apple don't give customer service!)

  For the third time! I'm trying to uninstall iTunes from my PC with Windows 7 Home Edition premium as the statement on Apple's site, but get a message "the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable." I'm then offered a chance to "try again or enter a different path to the folder that contains the package"iTunes6464.msi installation in the box below. " With my limited knowledge, I can't find such a record.

  For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates. Start by Missing MSI errors .

  The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

  Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

  More information area has direct links with the current and recent buildings if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with QuickTime software or a third party.

  Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

• iPod (Nano) not listed is not in Explorer or iTunes after upgrade (Vista Home Premium 32 bit to 7 Home Premium 32 bit)

  I took the advice of Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor and uninstalled iTunes before the upgrade and then re-installed after.  Now my iPod no longer appears in the Explorer or iTunes, but iTunes has shown once after having been unplugged , offers that it has been corrupted and that it needed a software reset.

  The fact iPod appears in disk management and if I manually assign a drive letter the file structure seems intact and I can manually play the mp3 files.

  Device Manager (under portable devices) poster 'WPD filesystem Volume driver ' with an exclamation icon and the status of the device "this device cannot start. (Code 10) ».

  In devices and printers, I have "Apple iPod USB Device " (with the exclamation mark icon) under devices and "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver " under Unspecified.

  Apple iPod USB Device - functions of the device:

  • WPD file system Volume driver
    on UMBus enumerator
    This device cannot start. (Code 10).
  • Apple iPod USB Device
    on the USB mass storage device
    This device does not work correctly.
  • USB mass storage device
    This device does not work correctly.

  My computer about a month and more than the specifications for the performance of iTunes.  I tried to uninstall all the Apple software and reinstall from scratch.  I tried this after deleting the WPD entry and experienced in obtaining iPod detected prior to installation and after.  Any of these solve the problem.

  I just installed the latest (9.0.2.25) update to iTunes, but that did not help either.

  Another thing I noticed that may apply, is that if you upgrade iTunes once a connection failed to the iPod, the installation stops at where he is "stopping services...." ».  Audit Services shows that the iPod Service stops, but he never does and a reboot is required to reach a State where it cannot be stopped.

  Well, it was logical that since it was Windows that had changed and not the iPod or iTunes and the error was on a Microsoft driver, I should ask about it here.

  I had already followed all the instructions I could find Apple on the uninstalling and reinstalling, but lucky I did it all again.

  I tried to plug the iPod with No Apple software present and got the same error WPD.  Hmm... weird, Windows should not see it as a USB key?

  I tried to plug in my old iRiver T10 and saw the same mistake WPD, but Windows it mapped to a drive letter and showed its content.

  Reinstalled iTunes, but it has not always worked.

  Then I asked myself what would happen if I assigned manually a drive letter in disk management... all of a sudden, everything works!

  So what's happening?  My guess is that Windows is trying to use a drive letter that has already been used by another reader.  Or maybe just do not assign one at all.  I see no reason why he would do this.  I checked carefully assigned drive letters and they are all the same as they were in Vista.

• Do I need to uninstall it before installing a ps/2 compatible mouse

  Hello

  should I uninstall ps/2 compatible mouse? prior to installation you recommended

  First a little advice.  If something is not broken, do not fix it.  You say something tells you that your mouse driver was obsolete, but it was the work of the mouse?  If it was, it was a mistake to fool with the driver.

  In regards to your PS/2 mouse, is what brand?  The Synaptics driver sounds to me that it would be for your touchpad, not your mouse.  Your touchpad works?  Worst case, you can buy a USB mouse and use it.  You can buy these for as little as $4.

  If you need to come back before you begin the update of drivers, you should study the system restore back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

  -

  When you got your system back as you, I invite you to buy an external hard drive, and a good backup 3rd party program. You can configure it to automatically do everything in time and frequency of your choice. 1.5 TB external hard drives is approximately $90 these days and a very good FREE backup program corresponds to the Easeus todo backup free of charge that you can download from

  http://www.todo-backup.com/products/home/free-backup-software.htm . Who can make you save a lot of time and frustration, the next time something like this happens. Sooner or later, it happens to all computers for one reason or another.

  Good luck.

• Do you need to uninstall MSE before the upgrade to Windows 7?

  I am upgrading to Windows 7 Home Premium from XP, uninstall MSE for the upgrade?

  There is no place in upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7, so disabling or uninstalling, so be it, you will need to do a custom installation.

  The upgrade to Windows XP?

  Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.

  Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).

   

  More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.

  1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.

  2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.

  3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.

  4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."

  5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.

  If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.

• do I need to uninstall Chrome before you install Firefox?

  don't know how or if Chrome will interfere with Firefox. I have used Chrome for years but want to switch to Firefox by recommendation of my daughter. Thank you.

  You don't need to uninstall chrome if you have enough storage. This will not affect your browsing with Firefox. Even if you want, you can import your settings and favorites of Chrome that you have used for a long time.
  You can see the article getting started with Firefox – an overview of the main features and the import bookmarks and the personal data from another browser. Welcome to Firefox!

  But having said that it will not affect your browsing with Firefox, Chrome silently installs an audio headphones and start when you start your computer, then you can uninstall it if you care about your privacy.

• What do I need get my itunes to upgrade past 11.4

  my iphone 6 does not connect to my computer. get the message that I need to update itunes. When I try to update it says that its updates. I was wondering what are the steps I need to take

  iOS9 on a mobile device requires iTunes 12.3 or higher, which in turn requires a computer running OSX 10.8.5 or higher.  Update of the system only checks the updates for the current version of the system you run, but that itself can be updated.  It may or may not be possible to upgrade your computer to the system requirements. Find your computer on the web site of http://www.everymac.com model and near the bottom of the specification of the system section, he will tell what versions of the operating system, it is able to run. If you can not run a newer system, you will not be able to sync this phone to your current computer. If she can run 10.8.5 or higher, you can either buy a download for Apple OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion code online, or you can try to install the free El Capitan OSX 10.11.  El Capitan can run slower on older machines and require the additional purchase of RAM.  Making a big jump in versions of system is also more likely to affect the old software.

• Upgrade Vista to Windows 7, need product key

  I have a computer that was originally purchased with Windows Vista on it. I am now anting upgraded to Windows 7 and have a question before doing so. I bought a disc to upgrade to 7 through my University and the disk, it says that you need a product key. When the computer was purchased, Vista is already installed and we never received a product key or disc. I read a few places when the OS is installed at the factory, they use a special key that they integrated into the BIOS of the motherboard. Will I need to somehow extract this product key or can I just proceed with the upgrade? Thank you

  You would need a Windows 7 key to install the upgrade, not a Windows Vista key.  The Windows 7 disc you have is useless without the key to Windows 7. It looks like you bought a copy of the education of MSDNAA and your college should have made you a key when you bought it.

• Upgrade Vista to Windows 7 with upgrade... activation needs

  I got a slightly used work computer with Vista 32-bit on it. I tried upgrading to Windows 7 Home Premium with an updated disc that I bought a few years at Microsoft.  Everything went well. It is installed properly. I downloaded ALL the updates to get SP1 +, but it seems to need an activation key.  Can I just buy a key without reinstalling the operating system or do I have to buy an another upgrade or full version of Windows 7 Home Premium?  Be specific on where, how and what to buy.  Thanks for the help.

  Thank you.  I had to buy a new product key for Technical Support, but it went very smoothly and now Windows 7 is genuine.
