Hi, my phone is stuck "searching..." I deleted all content and date and now it won't activate again, please help?
Title explains it all, please help
My bill is paid I noticed this when I couldnt make calls.
When I clicked the call button it did nothing.
Hi ikgodb,
If you are having an issue with being unable to make phone calls, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
iPhone: Troubleshooting issues making or receiving calls - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

Le question basically.
Bummer for you then, huh? Guess that's what you get for using pirated software. You've forfeited your abilit to get assistance on this forum by pirating Apple's software.
Look elsewhere on the internet, or pay $99 to join as a developer and then you can get access to the forum that might have your answer. -
i want to get rid of everything in itunes , music, movies etc and start afresh. Ive deleted all old libraries but still there is stuff in iTunes. Please help me start afresh?
Please do not delete any files from the HDD without having a current backup.
I'm not sure what you mean when you say you've "deleted all old libraries." Can you explain that?
If all you are wanting to do is empty the iTunes library of all music, video playlists, etc. the easiest way is to quit iTunes and, in the Finder, go to ~/Music/iTunes and simply move the .itdb, .itl and .xml files to the trash. Launch iTunes again and the library will be empty.
You should be prompted to add content, so you can let iTunes scan the HDD if you like. -
When I tried to update my iPhone to the newest iOS, it wiped my phone clean! And now it won't activate it. Help!
There is an alternate method in this thread that you can try if you are unable to locate and disable all of your AV/AS software:

I erased my phone with the icloud now i can't activate it please help me
it says something about activation server unavailable
When you erase the phone via Settings/General/Erase All Content and Settings or using Find My iPhone/Erase in iCloud and you then attempt to reactivate it again, as part of the activation process it has to contact an Apple server (called the "activation server") and from it receive the OK to activate the phone after checking your Apple ID and password are valid, the software installed on the phone is correctly signed and so forth. If it cannot contact the Apple activation server for some reason (it's down or you don't have internet connectivity, etc.) then you will get this message and the activation process cannot proceed.
First thing to check is that you have a working internet connection, WiFi is okay, etc. If that is all okay then maybe the Apple activation server is down or unreachable because of issues at Apple's end, in that case simply wait a while and try the activation again, hopefully it will now work. -
I was trying to synk my ipod touch to my laptop but instead it deleted all of my music that was on my ipod. is there anyway i can get that music back?? please help.
Adam,
If these songs were only on your iPod Touch and not in your iTunes library or backed up anywhere else, them I'm afraid you are out of luck.
If they are iTunes purchases and you live in the US, see this Apple support document about redownloading them at no cost.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
For music that was imported from outside of iTunes, you'll need to reimport those again.

Does deleting and recreating a iCloud account also deletes all it's Data and stuff?
If I sign in from another account, will all the paid apps be erased? Can I retrieve them? I doubt so because from my knowledge, when I updated for iOS 6 from 5, all my apps are gone.(my version is 7.0.3)
Correct -- a different account would have to start over regarding apps.

I downloaded 6 software to my phone and is fine, when I did my wifes it deleted all of her contacts and she isnt backed up to outlook, Please Help. I used the same account login/password for the icloud part....
Why would you use the same iCloud login? Do you and your wife share that account for syncing contacts?
Was she actually syncing contacts to any supported app on the computer or a cloud service prior to the update as the iPhone is designed to be used?
Did you not backup the iPhone prior to the update? If this had been done, it should be a simple matter or restoring from that backup to put everything back. -
if i didn't activate iCloud to my "notes," once i plug my phone into my computer does that delete all of my notes and there's no way to access them again?
The first thing to try is to make sure you are not in Full Screen Mode. Press F11.

This means that you are using a different computer to update it from the one you usually sync to. Alternatively, it may mean that you never sync to a computer. -
I am getting alert error message -5000 when trying to update to iOS5 and it says it will delete all content on my phone if I continue. Anyone know what to do?

I tried to update my phone. The update didnt go all the way through, and ended up freezing the screen on my iphone with an itunes icon on it. I tried to reboot phone with no success...the icon stays on there with no other function of the phone available. Anybody know of a fix?
Put your iphone in dfu mode by doing this. Turn your iphone off. When its off, hold home and power button together for exactly 10 seconds, then release the power button and keep holding home button for another 10 seconds. Then open up itunes on your pc and plug your iphone to your pc. Itunes should recognize your iphone in recovery mode and it will tell you to restore it. Click restore, and your iphone will restore. Remember that, if you do this you will lose everything that was on your iphone. You can restore from backup later on. Hope I helped. If you have any questions or problems with this tutarial, you can contact me personaly on my email [email protected] . Hope I helped. Cheers

I keep getting a Warning that I'm running out of disk space. Even after I deleted all of my photos and e-mail I still show 0 available space. Please help!
Correct KiltedTim the iPhone does not have a disk drive, and it does give an error message about running out of disk space. I'm here searching for how to clear it and/or what causes it. A friends 8gb iphone 3G has started giving her that message. It is not jailbroken, has no videos, 400 songs, 20 apps. The system information says there is 0 bytes free. There is 4.6 Gb of "other" data taking up the remaining free space. None of the few apps on the phone I expect would take up that much space with data. Even her emails and saved text messages shouldn't fill 4GB. New iPhone coming in the next couple of days. Easiest to just reset the old one after the upgrade and redownload the apps to make sure not to mess things up.
