5c sim card wont go in all the way

Sim card tray wont go in all the way so it will not recognize my sim card. I ordered a new tray and still the same problem, Taking out the sim card does not solve the problem either. Any suggestions?

there is a possible chance the the sim card slot contacts where damaged. If so only thing you can do is buy a new phone!

MacBook wont boot up all the way!!

I recently updated my computer with Quiktime and itunes applications and it asked me to restart after updates were complete. It restarted but it gets stuck on the gray screen with the apple and the turning wheel and wont go any further. I read similar posts but the problem is i do not have any of my original software with me because i am living in Europe right now. I tried the shift and power and also the command and ctrl and power and nothing has worked. is there any way i can fix this without having to reinstall?

I don't have an answer since you don't have the install DVDs or apparently even a backup drive with you, but this is a good place to point out the need for preventative maintenance to anyone who is interested.
It is always somewhat risky to install new software. It is like surgery; it is usually safe but there can be complications caused by the fact that everyone's computer is setup differently and many people have corrupted files already on their computers that they are not even aware of. Then when the new installed update comes across something that is corrupted, bad things can happen.
I think many people don't use an external hard drive as a backup because they don't want to spend the money. In this case, do what I do, as a redundancy to an ext. backup drive, partition your computer's drive such that you can install a copy of OS X on each partition. Then you will always have a functional OS in case you get caught without your install DVDs or any other method of getting back on track.
The second OS (on a partition) is also great for trouble shooting all manner of issues that might come up from time to time. The only downside is that it will consume some space on your hard drive but then you should not be living so close to the edge anyway if you absolutely need that few extra GB of disk space.
Business and industry could not possibly survive if they did not use redundancies and fail-safes to cover the unexpected. Individuals should not think that they somehow can.

Dvd wont burn movie all the way

The dvd is 4.7 GB and the movie is 4.1 the dvd wont burn the whole movie it stops a little before the movie is over. HOw do we burn a long movie onto dvd?

What is the total playing time of your movie? iDVD 5 has a 120 minute limit, including menus, in the Best Quality setting or a 60 minute limit in the Best Performance setting. The size of the files is not the determining factor, just the playing time.

Imac G5 wont start up all the way

Hi i have an Imac G5 iSight and recently it would not start up properly. After a day or two without usage it became very slow and laggy when i tried to reuse it, so then i just manually shut it off. i then rebooted it and a flashing folder appeared (this isnt the first time ive seen the folder) then i just shut it off and let it sit there for about a day, after that i turned it on and it would send me to the greyish screen as usual with the apple logo on it with a loading bar at the bottom this time. the loading bar would barely fill up and then if would just shut itself off. Could anybody please help me with my situation?
P.S. - i tried holding the comm+opt+pr thing as well as holding the C button down when booting up. its also running Snow Leopard

First, if you're running Snow Leopard, you ave an Intel-based iMac, and not a PPC based G5 iSight iMac. The late 2006 iMacs look similar to the iSight iMacs.
Here are some items to try:
Run Disk Utility to Repair the Hard Drive and Repair Disk Permissions
Place your original, came with the iMac when purchased install disk, into the optical drive slot on the iMac. Restart the computer. Immediately press and hold the C key. (If you have upgraded your OS from when you purchased your iMac, example your iMac came with OS 10.3 installed, and you're now using OS 10.5, then use the OS 10.5 Retail Install disk that you had used to upgrade your OS instead of the original, came with the iMac disk.)
Release the C key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple logo appears. Wait for the installer to finish loading. DO NOT do an OS installation. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears at the top screen, click on Utilities, and pull down to select Disk Utility. On the left side of the window that opens, select your normal hard drive entry (manufacturer's ID and drive size). In the lower portion of the Disk Utility window you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say Verified, then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.)
If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid at the top middle of the window if it isn't already selected. Now click the Repair Disk button from the lower right area of the window. If the disk utility reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk again, until no errors are reported. When that is done, click the Repair Permissions button to the left of the Repair Disk button you clicked earlier.
When that is done, quit Disk Utility.
If Disk Utility reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need DiskWarrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. These are third-party disk repair utilities that cost money. If you don't have them, Google them for more info. If neither of them can fix the drive, you will need to backup your data ASAP.
If that doesn't work, try resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
1) Shutdown the computer.
2) Unplug all cables from the back of the computer, including the power cable.
3) Wait fifteen seconds.
4) Attach the computer's power cord.
5) Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
Reset the PRAM or NVRAM
Reset your PRAM. Press and hold down the Command Option P R keys while starting your computer. You will hear the startup chime. continue holding down those keys until you hear the startup chime a second time. Release the keys. If the computer restarts, you will need to reset your Date and Time. It might be time to replace your PRAM battery.
Run the Apple Hardware Test (AHT)
See here for running AHT for Intel-based iMacs:

Good luck.

I updated my 20G iPod with click wheel and now it wont turn on all the way

Ok so I updated my 20G iPod with click wheel with the latest version (three point something), and now when i try to turn it on, it shows the apple logo and then has a pic of an ipod being plugged into a power adapter being plugged into a wall socket. i have reset it about 40 times and it always does the same thing. i have tried to charge the ipod with my computer but it does absolutely nothing (i dont have a power adapter). Also, when i reset my ipod WHEN IT IS PLUGGED INTO THE COMPUTER, it shows the "Very low battery" picture.Also, my computer does not see the iPod in "my computer" or iTunes. I have another iPod, which works perfectly on my computer. I thank anyone who tries to help me.
Windows XP

You must have a charge of your iPod with an ac charger, in order to complete the Restore process.
You can also charge your iPod with
1. iPod car charger
2. iPod speaker dock system e.g. iPod HiFi or Bose soundstage

Firefox wont close down all the way

some reason when i go to close down firefox then try to bring in back an hour later keep getting the message "Firefox is already running but is not responding" and keep wondering why this is happening tryed puting the profile to read only it helped for a week then it started back up aside from that not sure why its happening usin firefox 30.0

This was an issue with v29 that v30 was suppost to fix.
From what I have been reading from other posts on this forum, the
issue may be caused by the clear history settings.
Press the '''<Alt>''' or '''<F10>''' key to bring up the tool bar.
Followed by;
Windows; '''Tools > Options'''
Linux; '''Edit > Preferences'''
Mac; ''application name'' '''> Preferences'''
Then '''Privacy'''.
The button next to '''History''', select '''Use Custom Settings'''.
At the bottom of the page, turn on '''Clear History When Firefox Closes.'''
At the far right, press the '''Settings''' button. Turn on ONLY '''Cache''' and
'''Form And Search History''' leaving the others off.
This is not a cure but will make it easier if Firefox locks up.

Why isn't my iPod (5th Generation) turning on all the way?

Okay earlier my iPod died and I plugged it in, while it was charging I was about to open my message app. Right when I clicked on it my iPod died or did something anyways. Now whenever I turn it on I just see the white apple logo for several seconds and the screen goes black again. I charged my iPod for about 5 hours so I don't think it's dead. I have tried holding down the home and power button together several times and it still hasn't turned all the way back on yet...and it wont connect to iTunes because it wont turn on all the way...what do I do?
( I haven't done the most recent update either so it's still iOS 8.1.2)

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have my ipad notes linked to gmail and suddenly disappeared when I put the sim card into a new iphone, the funny thing is that almost all disappeared except 4 and with different dates up to two years. Why did this happen? No way to recover them?

Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum. Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is. Apple is not here. It's users, like you.
If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.

I have more than 1000 contacts in my etisalat sim card, but when I import the contats its stop at 750 contacts, what is wrong? i read the phone can carry thousands of contacts..what shall i do?

Thanks, it seems that it doesn't like to play games, which is a bit of a bummer as i bought this specifically because it was capable of doing that. To be fair, it is capable... I just need to get used to a sound like sitting by a washing machine on spin cycle... Wish they would make people aware of this in the Apple Store, its very misleading and not at all desireable.

Sim card wont sync to iCloud

Apparently, I have a bunch of contacts on my SIM card instead of in my iCloud contacts. When I try to Sync via the phone, nothing happens. The default contacts list is the iCloud. I'm not sure how they got on the SIM card to begin with. Why won't they sync to iCloud?

When I go to my phone and click on Contacts, then at the top click on Groups, I have four choices: Show All Contacts; All iCloud; All Facebook; All on my iPhone (sim card).
By Default, all new contacts should be saved to iCloud but apparently a few of them were saved to My iPhone (sim card) and they do not sync with iCloud so that I have them on all other devices.
When I went to Settings/Mail,Contacts,Calendars then scroll down to Contacts and "Import SIM Contact", I tell it to sync with iCloud. it then SAYS that it's "Synching with iCloud" but it doesn't.

Its a serious problem and many people are facing the same issue on both locked and factory unlocked phones.
I wonder when Apple will address to this issue. After all it is losing all its reputation!
See this thread, many users are encountering the same issue:

I believe its a software issue and could be solved asap Apple fixes it!

You did not ruin the phone, you will need a sim card to activate the phone and then connect the phone to itunes and do a restore from back up.
