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.

my iphone has been lost in my house and i need to find a way to track it and its offline. it wont connect to the internet so there isnt a way to use find my iphone. i just want to play a sound on it. is there any way i can get a app that connects my ipod from a laptop or a different way to find it.
If your phone is offline, the ONLY way to find it is to look for it the old fashioned way. Your phone CANNOT be located electronically if it's offline.

Remove documents from iCloud
You can remove documents stored in iCloud by deleting them from any of your devices that have iCloud set up for Documents & Data. Removing your documents from iCloud reduces the amount of iCloud storage space you’re using.
Remove iCloud documents from your iOS device
Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage.
Under Documents & Data, tap the app that has a document you want to delete, then tap Edit.
Remove iCloud documents from your Mac
Open iCloud preferences, then click Manage.
Select an app on the left, then select one or more documents on the right.
Click Delete (below the list of apps).
You can also remove documents from iCloud by moving them to your Mac with OS X v10.8 or later. For instructions, use go to the Finder on your Mac, choose Help > Help Center, then search for “save documents.” -
I purchased an IPHONE 5 in USA, the sleep button is defective, can I take in a service in Hongkong? since I'm here and its still cover for the 1 year warranty.
No. The warranty is only valid in the country where the phone was originally sold. You will have to take it back to the US or send it to someone you know there to take it in for service.

Do any of you apple geniuses out there know how to retrieve the answers to your security questions or at least reset them? Apparently its to much for the support team. Can't get an answer out of them...
Reset Security Questions
Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
Manage My Apple ID
Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
If all else fails:
Go to: Apple Express Lane;
Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
Then choose iTunes Store;
Then choose Account Management;
Press Continue;
Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click Continue;
Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would like your security/challenge questions reset;
Click Send.
You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
Presently there appears to be problems on Apple's end, so it may be quite some time before they respond.
Another user posted the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone.
It is kind of round about way to get in
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
1) on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" > tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
2) Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select "done", in the upper right corner
3) sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the security questions.
4) At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security questions.
It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
Good Luck friends! -

Delete all calendars from an iCloud account
Hi Support Communities,
did anyone find a way to delete all calendars from an iCloud account? It seems that iCloud wants to keep at least one calendar. We use several accounts and one is only used to look at shared calendars from other accounts. So there is no need for its own empty calendar. On iOS I just hid this calendar, but on OS X it is always visible. I unchecked it, but it would be nice if I could just delete it. If I do so on an iOS device it is gone, but reappears later. Trying to delete it on a Mac results in an error that it can’t be deleted, same goes for the web interface at icloud.com. It’s just a cosmetic issue, but I would prefer it to be gone altogether. Any ideas?
Thanks
BjörnI had hoped I was wrong, you never know. Well, thanks anyway!

I am finding the ability to download previous purchases now shown on my iCloud account to be difficult. Music appears fine and most movies are OK but I have problems with all music videos included with album purchases. Any ideas?

Firstly, I purchased my first iPhone a few years ago, since then there have been a lot of apps released, a lot which I downloaded for free, tried and deleted from both my phone and my iTune 'Apps' Panel. What bothers me is when I do get a new iOS device, iPad and/or iPhone 5, and I don't want to just copy the back-up of my current iOS device to the new one, then to get the apps I want I will have to scroll through countless useless 'trash' applications in my purchase history to 'cloud download' the ones I want.
Just sync the apps you want from your computer. You don't need to redownload them directly on the iPhone Purchased list.
Will Apple be employing such a feature, a 'permanently delete/un-purchase' feature?
Dunno.

I heard that I you purchase an ipad 3 before 30 days u can still exchange for the ipad 4 is it true?
Is it true or not?
You should try to return from where you bought it. Someone (who bought the old 'new ipad more than 14 days but fewer than thirty days ago) posted the other day that in NYC the Fifth Ave. Apple store would not honor the exchange but the Upper West Side store (less than a mile away) did exchange it.
Two days ago, a Best Buy was still selling the 'new' ipad at regular prices. I thought their return policy was/is 14 days, but I checked and it's actually thirty days (see website.) There was no specification that it was different for ipads or other electronics.
And if I were you, I would take your product (with all the peripherals it came with) and receipt and bring it in. Ask to speak to a manager. It's easy to say 'no' over the phone - one less disgruntled ipad owner to deal with.
DO IT ASAP!
One thing Apple needs to do is get all their retail stores to participate!
Hope this helps. -
I deleted iCloud off my phone a few months back because it seemed to be slowing down my phone. I am no longer interested in keeping iCloud on my phone in the future. I was charged $20 to upkeep my extra storage that I purchased last year but am no longer needing it. How do I get my money back?
Contact the Apple online store for your country (1-800-MY-APPLE in the U.S. and Canada).

I think it has to have 3.1 GB, so you will most likely have to delete a bunch of apps, download then erese all pictures onto a laptop or desktop or try to download all your iTunes song onto your account on a laptop or desktop (I tried all of them, but I only have 2.5 GB availble because I have accedentally sync over 1,000 picture onto my iPod. I also tried to make sure all my songs were up to date with my iTunes account, so I can restart my iPod.) If you restart your iPod, make sure that you have a way to save your contacts on a laptop or desktop so your can put them back in.

Cannot delete pending downloads from unknown icloud accounts.
After I updated to ios 7, 5 songs appeared in my itunes store downloads that are pending. When I click on them I am prompted to sign in with email address of friends. I cannot seem to delete these pending items. i've tried swiping but no delete option comes up. help??
Some clarification needed:
"After I updated to ios 7" - the iPhone 5s (shown in your profile) came with iOS 7. Are you referring to another phone and one that was used/owned by someone else? Did you mean update to iOS 7.0.4?
1. Back up your phone
2. Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings
3. Restore backup
