Hi guys
It's that "help the Aged" time again
This time, the "conundrum" (probably solvable in 30 secs to someone even vaguely aware of what a computer is) concerns my 5S phone. All was well; the unit synched with iTunes and all the rest, but the other day the phone itself announced there was an OS update ready to install (which it had downloaded directly without recourse to be connected to laptop). I told it to install; it did its thing and everything appeared to be OK.
Now though, when I try to synch with iTunes (via usb cable connection to my ancient XP OS laptop), it reaches the last stage, Step 5 of 5, and says "Waiting for changes to be applied" before hanging/not transfering anything. Even more annoyingly, it has somehow screwed up much of the music that I already have stored on the phone, with a stupid 'square-in-a-circle' stop icon on many tracks, meaning they can no longer be played. In mean, FFS Apple, I can't even *synch the phone*...? How incredibly
shit.
Does anyone have any ideas please? (Please, no "immerse the phone in water for 30 seconds" type advice, as I'm liable to do it
)
TIA
