I just downloaded ios 7 and now my phone won't open, anyone know how I can open it?

I downloaded ios 7 and at first my phone worked fine, I locked my phone and now I cant unlock it even though when someone calls the phone rings.  Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Hello there, Mark2s.
The following Knowledge Base article offers some great steps for troubleshooting your issue with charging your phone:
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1476
Particularly:
If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
Plug the device in to power and let it charge for up to 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
If the issue is persists, please contact Apple Support.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

  • I just downloaded Ilife 9 and now my Iphoto doesn't open. The error message says: You cannot open your library using this version. Quit and use the older version. What can I do?

    I just downloaded Ilife 9 and now my Iphoto doesn't open. The error message says: You cannot open your library using this version. Quit and use the older version. What can I do?

    iLife '09 is not available as a download - it is only available as a purchase
    iLife '11 is available as a DVD purchase and the compoments of it are available from the App Store (iPhoto '11 (version 9.1.5), etc)
    Exactly what did you do? And exactly what does the error message say?
    On the surface it appears that you are attemptying to open a new library with an older version (iPhoto '09 can not open an iPhoto '11 library for example)

  • I downloaded iOS 7 and now my notes won't sync with iCloud

    I downloaded iOS 7 and now my notes won't sync with iCloud.  Also, all of my notes on iCloud aren't on my phone anymore, but they are still on my computer. Can somebody please advise how to fix this issue?  Thank you!

    Sounds like they are being overwritten by the server as soon as you reconnect.  With some effort you may be able to prevent this and recover your notes if you try the steps in Winston Churchill's post here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22600445#22600445.

    Try to force your phone into recovery mode. Disconnect it from the computer's USB cord. Turn it off if you can by holding the sleep/wake switch until you see the red slide to off. If you can't turn it off, please continue. Press and hold the home button while plugging it into the computer's USB cord. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 for details.
    Then you can restore your phone: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • I just downloaded OSx Lion and now MS word won't work. If I buy and install MS Office 2011 for Macs will my old documents open?

    I just downloaded OSx Mountain Lion and now MS Word won't work. If I buy the current MS Office 2011 and install will I be able to read my old docs?

    If it's because you're trying to use Office 2004 or earlier, yes. Note that programs such as OpenOffice and TextEdit will do this for free.
    If you're using Office 2008, it's probably better to troubleshoot the problem instead of upgrading.

  • Just downloaded IOS 5, itunes stuck on step 8 syncing artwork, anyone know what to do

    just downloaded IOS 5, itunes syncing stuck on step 8 (syncing artwork), anybody know what to do ?

    Mine gave me an error in itunes side that it didnt recognize the phone.  But when I unplugged and re plugged it it was fine.  Or is yours on the screen with the little plug?  You might have to go to Apple.  I have that happen to a friend on the 7 upgrade.  She needed a new phone.  oy!

  • HT4623 Updated iTunes to latest version, updated iPhone to iOS 7 and now my phone won't work at all.  Won't connect to my WiFi, and won't talk to iTunes . . . Now what do I do?

    I now have a useless $700 phone.  Updated iTunes to latest version (and can't get it to revert back to an earlier version), updated iPhone (iPhone5) to iOS 7 and now it won't talk to iTunes, nor will it connect to my WiFi.  What should I try now?

    If it won't talk at all to iTunes, you can hold down the power and home button for 10 seconds, it will power off, this is ok, then let go of the power button while holding the home button until iTunes sees it as a device in recovery mode.  You can try to reinstall iOS7 and then restore.

  • I tried to install iOS 7 and now my phone won't turn on?

    Well, around 3 hours ago I tried to install iOS 7. It said I didn't have enough space so I deleted mostly all of my apps, all my music, all my photos and all my videos. It then said I had enough space so I went to install it. It kept saying error over and over again so I tried restarting my phone (which is an iPhone 4) and then it went all wrong. It just stayed on the Apple logo and never went off it. I asked around and I was told to do a hard reboot (I hold down the off and home button for 10 seconds, then lift my finger off the off button until the logo comes on again and links with my iTunes). I did this and it linked with my iTunes but it won't download iOS 7 from it (it says it has "40 hours remaining" or something ridiculous but doesn't budge - it wants to download iOS7 from iTunes when I am trying to recover my iPhone) because after waiting for a while, an error pops up. It's just a vicious cycle with nothing at all changing and it's really annoying me now. Can anyone help? It's getting late and I *REALLY* need this phone for tomorrow.
    Please help me.

    The phone is in recovery mode. See this support document for instructions on what to do. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

    I have no idea what may have caused your MacBook to stop working, but from your description it kind of sounds like it may have started before you ran Software Update and installed the new Apps. Just the general slow feeling and bugginess is what tips me off. You said that you weren't sure if you had closed all open windows, that doesn't matter if the computer restarts itself. It automatically closes all other open applications when restarting.
    As to your data being retrievable, if when you take it in they do a fresh install of the OS, then no, it will not be unless you want to pay several thousand dollars to a software retrieval company.
    I am glad to hear that you have taken into the Apple Store to get it fixed, and that you have all of your purchased music backed up to your iPod. You should be able to just transfer it all back to iTunes once you get your computer back should it be necessary.
    As a side note, the proper place for this topic would probably in the MacBook forums, not iTunes since there is no evidence that iTunes started the issue.

  • Downloaded ios 8 and now my phone is frozen. How do I uninstall?

    I updated ios 8 when it was released and haven't had any issues until now. My phone is frozen and will not unlock or shut down. I have tried plugging it in to my computer, but can't seem to find any solutions.

    Unfortunately apple does not allow downgrades of software so you are stuck with iOS 8 I'm afraid,but wait for some patch updates like iOS 8.0.2 which was released in the last few days.
    Hope that helped

  • Just upgraded to Mavericks and now System Preferences won't open (error -1712); suggestions about what to do?

    Just upgraded from Lion to Mavericks.  Free download, install and reboot went fine.  When I go to System Preferences to customize the desktop, etc., I can't open it.  Error number is given as -1712.  Anyone else had this problem?  Any suggestions about how to fix it?  Thanks!

    Get onto the App Store and download/purchase the Mavericks version of iPhoto.
