iTunes could not check for an update to the carrier settings for your iPhone. An unknown error occurred (1661)
Are you getting the error iTunes could not check for an update to the carrier settings for your iPhone. An unknown error occurred (1661)? This happened to me after a restore from iOS 5 beta. I am guessing since Apple changed the carrier settings around and blocked the ability to edit edge settings on non approved carriers with this version of the beta is the reason we are seeing this error.
I have an officially unlocked iPhone 4 running T-Mobile USA and on iOS 5 beta 7 when I go to Settings -> General -> About -> my Carrier shows up as Not Available. Apple will most likely fix this error, so we can guarantee that there will be an iOS 5 beta 8 and iOS beta 9 may be the GM (Golden Master).

Fix: the operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.appleaccount error 0.)
Did you get this error when trying to restore your iPhone or iPad from an iCloud backup while beta testing iOS 5
? I did and here is how to fix it. When your iDevice asks for your Apple ID and you are positive you are entering the right username and password in and you still get the error “The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.appleaccount error 0.)” this is due to some glitch in Apple’s servers. To fix this problem you will need to login to your account on a computer through iTunes. Change your password and make sure your credit card and billing are correct.
Now try to login to your Apple ID on your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad and you will finally be able to get past this error and restore from an iCloud backup.

FAQ: How To Fix iOS 5 Photo Sync Issues
Hey guys, now, as you know, iOS 5 has been around for a few days and I have been playing around with it since it came out on Monday. However, there was one thing that I could not do with my iPhone anymore, and that was sync photos correctly. It would sync about 100 out of the over 1,000 pictures I usually sync to my iPhone (and they wouldn’t be in the same album either) and it would give me a triangle in iTunes next to my iPhone.
Well, I figured out a way to fix the sync issues I was having. Turns out, as I believe is the case (not confirmed by Apple yet), but the photos database that iOS 2.0 -> 4.3.3 used is no longer compatible with iOS 5. So, I had to delete the database and allow iTunes 10.5 (beta) to create a new one, that was iOS 5 compatable.
All you have to do is go into Finder, click on “Pictures” and look for a file called “iPhoto Library”, then, right click (or put 2 fingers on the track pad) and click it, and choose “Show Package Contents”.
Now, look at the picture above for reference, and find a folder called “iPod Photo Cache” and delete it. Also, make sure to EMPTY YOUR TRASH!! If you don’t, then it won’t always work as Finder will sometimes still consider it as still being there.
Then, close iTunes and relaunch it.
Now, go to sync your photos onto your iOS 5 device, it should now work!
You should see it syncing your pictures! As for the triangle (forgot to do so in my screenshot that I took), after the sync is complete, click on it to get rid of it. If it disappears it means that everything is 100% synced up and ready to go!
There you go guys! Have fun!

BREAKING: iTunes Store Purchases Unavailable WorldWide
UPDATE: Some people that were having issues have reported that they are slowly getting back access to the store. I can now download from the iTunes Music Store and the Mac App Store. It takes a couple tries for the iTunes App Store to work correctly, but it seems the issues are starting to be resolved. 2:29 p.m.
UPDATE 2: Looks like all services are back up as of 2:37 p.m.
Some breaking news, looks like the iTunes Store has been going down world wide. I experienced this a few moments ago when trying to download the official WWDC 2011 app from iTunes and I have recieved multiple reports of the same issue.
We are unsure of what is causing the issues but, if you ask me, they are migrating the store to the new data center.
It’s not just the App Store, but the iTunes Music and Video stores, as well as podcasts, are down.
We will keep you updated as we get more info…
