What's so difficult about googling an error message and telling her what to do? It's not rocket surgery.

Luckily for both of you, though, Apple has some if the best tech support on the planet so she won't even need to bother you with it.

Edit: This wasn't meant to sound as prickish as it does, btw.
Because she's already asking me to download Itunes onto her laptop and calls me everytime she wants a new app for her iphone or forgets where a specific setting is. I feel dirty every time I have to figure out stuff on an Apple product, even though I am typing on an Apple keyboard right now - the last piece of Apple hardware I will ever own.

Edit: This was meant to be prickish because I am in a bad mood this morning and feel like feeding the Apple troll that has been festering inside me since Elementary school when they threw out the wonderful Tandy 1000s and replaced them with Apples.

:P
