Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

while trying to access i phone through pc (windows 7 ) showing error 'you do not have permission to access this device '
And while trying to unlock screen after lock , slide not working 'slide to unlock'Hello there, charialji.
The following Knowledge Base article offers some great steps for troubleshooting your issue:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
Resolution
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

Return the iPhone and get your money back. It has been
hacked/modified/jailbroken and likely cannot be made

Hello, benkitch.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can reset your Apple ID password via the steps in the first article below. I would select the option to answer your security questions. If you do not have access to the email account or are not receiving the password reset link, see the second article.

Yeah, so I had a American credit card from bank of America, and I closed my bank account before I left the country.
When I came home I found out I still need to pay like $2.00 but I can't change the country cause I need to pay my bill first,
but I can't because I don't own a American credit card anymore... what do I do??Contact a friend in the USA and have them mail to you a cheap US iTunes Gift Card that you can redeem in your US account. Or, if a friend has an iTunes account, they can use the iTunes app on a Mac or PC to buy a cheap electronic gift certificate for you. The second option would be faster.

I Having major issue ussing my Iphone that I brought on Ebay. IS this a junk phone now or can I go to apple to get this fixed for the Apple ID

Probably...
The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
you need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.

Everytime I plug my iphone into power or if power goes and returns, it beeps loudly. I can't find anyway to reduce the volume or disable the beep. Searching previous threads suggests Apple finally addressed this issue (at least partially) with iPad, but nothing for iPhone. I've disturbed people at night when I plug it in, so I'm really interested in getting this beep under control. Any suggestions?
Turn on the mute switch

You must Restore iPhone with iTunes on computer. If you have any problems, here are steps. Open iTunes on computer, connect iPhone to computer with Lightning USB cable, hold both home and power buttons of iPhone for about 20 seconds until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, click Restore button of iTunes.

Although I had to add everything again to the playlist, at least I can just copy it over in future! -
I backed my old iphone up to my computer and bought a new iphone. When i backed my new phone up I now I have an icloud photo (from my computer) album that I want to delete from my phone but I do not have the option. Please help.
If the album was synced to your phone from your computer, it can only be removed by sycing it off. To do this, deselect the folder on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync.
