Iphone was in water in the pool, how to start it again?

The iPhone was in the swimming pool - is it possible to start it again?

Almost certainly, no. You can leave it off, put it in a plastic bag with uncooked rice, and leave it there for a week or two and see. Maybe (unlikely, but maybe), once the rice has absorbed all the moisture, it might revive.
But, odds are it has shorted out and permanently damaged or destroyed components.
You can get an out of warranty replacement for a fee from Apple. Or, if you have AppleCare+ for a much smaller fee you can use one of the two allowed accidental damage claims to get a replacement.
P.S. if it is still wet internally, and you try to power it up, you risk simply doing further damage. Do NOT try to power it on until you have tried to thoroughly dry it out.

My iphone 4s got water in the headphone port. I put my phone in rice for 24 hours and the LED light is on. It stays on even when the phone is off. How can I fix it with out spending 200 bucks at apple to have them fix it?

Short answer is you probably cannot. Once water gets inside the device and it is powered on, the damage likely is permanant.

I am sorry, but yes, it's very unlikely you'll ever get them back. iPhone's don't swim well.
You can get an out of warranty replacement for much less than the cost of the phone when new. Make sure you back it up regularly and you sync with iTunes on your computer to transfer purchases (music, ringtones, apps, etc.) to your iTunes Library.

My old computer broke, so i got a mac. However, my iphone was already synced to the old computer, so i cannot put music anymore. This is because it is synced to my old computer. How do I sync it to work on my mac?

Restore from backup or simply sync the content you want to the device.

Iphone was in water, now in rice: what to do now?

Hi
My iphone was in water for about 10 minutes. It was on. Now it's in a bag of rice. My warranty is past. I belatedly took out the sim card it looks fine. Will Apple replace for $199? Still, I'd rather send it to repair. I see a few places: ifixyouri, ubreakifix. Any recommendations?
Thanks!

There is nothing for them to do.
The entire phone is one integrated circuit board with everything soldered to it.
If the water caused it to short out, which is very likely, they would have to replace the entire board.
Also, your screen is most likely toast.
Entire cost of fixing it will not be worthwhile.

When I use my Apple ID for the last 12 hours I get this response: "There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (4)". How do I get around this? Try two apple ID's. Same thing.

If you're having problems with the App Store you might try this:
1 - enable the Debug menu in App Store:
open the Terminal application.
copy the command below and paste into the Terminal window:
defaults write com.apple.appstore ShowDebugMenu -bool true
followed by Enter.
launch App Store, login.
2 - select the Debug ➙ Reset Application option:
3 - try again.

Does this happen when you try to update?
These guys have a cool solution that has helped with that error when you can't update an app: http://support.iawriter.com/help/kb/mac-questions/the-app-store-fails-with-there -was-an-error-in-the-app-store-please-try-again-later-null
NOTE: the instructions are specifically for their app but the solution has also worked for other apps too. They are, however, more advanced steps so proceed with caution.

First take the steps recommended in this support article. If there's no change, continue as follows.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Cookies/com.apple.appstore.cookies
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

The personal hotspot has been disappeared in my iphone 4s when i turned on it. how to retrieve it again....

What phone company do you use. There needs to be more information about what is exactly going wrong. Becasue if you are in the USA then the hotspot feature can be turned off and on by the carrier, Such as what Verizon does, if you do not pay for the feature. If that is not the issue then there would have to be a software problem, which there are a few solutions to. One being take it to the apple store and letting them fix it, if it is not an issue with your phone company

How can I back up ipad on icloud? Keep getting message "There was a problem completing the back up. Please try again later." I have, many times! The trouble shooting info does not resolve the problem.

How can I back up ipad on icloud? I keep getting the message "There was a problem completing the back up. Please try again later." I have done so MANY times! I've followed the instructions ( I believe!) and the trouble shooting info does not resolve the problem. Can you please help?

I had this exact same problem because the router i had in my house was having interference issues and the speed was too slow to do it.
I would download a speedtest app on your iPad and see how fast your internet is. I think the app is called speedtest in fact.
