TS4062 my iphone 4 has mild water damage and will not sync with cable.I want to sync it over wifi to reload data I deleted during my troubleshooting, but I did not set up for wifi sync before the damage. Is there a way that this can be done now ?

My iphone 4 has mild water damage. As a result, it will not sync with it's former XP computer with the cable. I deleted the phone's data in the troubleshooting process. I want to get it back by syncing over wifi, but I did not set up this capability before the damage occured.is there another way to initiate this feature ? I can tell that they are connecting in the cloud because an app I just downloaded on the phone is showing up in itunes on the computer.

You don't need to access your e-mail account, just get into your Apple account and change the e-mail address. If you can't access your Apple account, then you have a bigger issue to contend with.

  • IPhone 4 has turned itself off and will not power up. Tried all of the suggestions on Apple's site. No luck. Any help?

    My iPhone 4 turned itself off, even though it is fully charged. It will not turn back on.
    I tried the "hold down the button for ten or more seconds" remedy, to no avail.
    I tried plugging it in to reset it using iTunes, but iTunes won't find the phone.
    What else can I do?
    The nearest AT&T store is over 10 miles away and it's after closing time...
    Please help!

    I seem to have found the answer by my own foolishness....
    I held down the on/off button on top and the "belly button" on the front bottom and whoosh! it came back to life.
    It would sure be nice if Apple would restore the Troubleshooting area of their website and include information like this so Luddites like myself could keep a lower blood pressure....

    I received a $25 dollar iTunes gift card from a friend of mine as a gift.  She had used some of the card before she gave me which
    did not bother me.  However, I cannot transfer the funds from the card to my iTunes account.  Is it possible that I cannot use this card,
    or is there a way I still can use the funds on the card.
    Thank You,
    Geo

    When an iTunes card is redeemed, the entire value of the card is placed on the iTunes account.  It is a one time use thing.  So, there is not a remaining balance on the card.

  • My Iphone 5 has switched off automatically and will not start up again what has happened?!

    My Iphone 5 switched itself off lastnight and has still not came back on. I have had the phone on charge so that is not the problem. Is there any suggestions on what the problem is?

    Try holding down both home and sleep buttons for at least 10-15 seconds and see if it powers on.   If not, it sounds like you may need to get the phone serviced/replaced at Apple Store.

  • HT4623 I do not like the new iOS 7 operating system on my iPad.  I do not like the Safari works, I do not see a way to enter or search for a new web site.  Is there a way that I can go back to the older operating system?

    I do not like the new iOS 7 system on both my iPad 2 and iPhone 4S.   I can not like the way Safari works, I can not see a way to enter name to search for new web sites.  Is there a way I can go back to the old iOS 6.1.5 operating system on my devices?  Thank you.

    I can not see a way to enter name to search for new web sites
    Put your search terms in the combined URL and search bar at the top of the browser (exactly the same as you do in most modern desktop browsers such as Chrome, Safari, Explorer). There is no separate search box, just use the box where you enter web addresses.
    And no, you cannot downgrade.

  • My iphone 3gs has completley turned off and will not switch back on with a full battery.

    my iphone 3gs has completley turned off. it is fully charged but will not switch on. i have connected it to itunes and it is not recognising the device. i have tried to reset it and this will not work either, and i have tried to restore it by holding down the home button but the apple sign will not come on. i dont know what else to try, any ideas?

    Try here.  iPhone and iPod touch: Frozen and unresponsive

  • Iphone 3GS was dropped and will not turn on or respond to USB connection.  Is there any way to extract the data off when it is not responding so that I can restore to my new phone?

    The phone is physically intact, but you can see the LCD is cracked behond the glass. I have tried plugging it in, tried putting it on the charger, and resetting it using the off and home buttons, bit response. I don't need the phone to work, but I do need to be bale to back it up in order to restore to the new phone.  Is there any way to extract the data or back up the hard drive without repairing the phone?  Just curious what my options are before I spend cash trying to fix the phone and find out there was another way to get the data.  Any thoughts here or should a good repair shop being able to create a backup somehow?

    Im not going to be much help because I don't know of anything else to besides take it somewhere that fixes electronics and see if they can get it off some how maybe if you take it to an apple store they can do something to get your information.

  • My MBP has started to send out TCP packets larger than the MTU on the NIC - is there any place that this can be overriden?

    Got a very weird issue here and wondering if anyone has any other ideas. Basically over the wired NIC only, my Mac has started to send out large HTTP/HTTPS packets from the browser (> 1500 bytes) Captures show packet sizes from 2000 all the way to 4000 sometimes. This happens in Firefox and Chrome so doesn't appear to be application related.
    This causes fragmentation issues and traffic drops which basically causes most of my websites and  tools to crash and burn (and I get all sorts of SSL errors from applications, etc).
    It appears to be limited to just TCP packets as pings with the DF bit set will not send any larger than 1500 bytes.
    However if I switch to wireless, everything works fine and captures show the correct maximum packet size of 1500 for all packets leaving my client.
    The MTU on the  en0 interface is 1500 as per ifconfig and I made sure that it was set to 1500 in Network config panel (because there is an option for jumbo frames there which bumps up the MTU).
    A packet capture also shows that during the three way handshake the TCP MSS is successfully sent and negotiated as 1480, but then it appears to ignore that when sending packets later in the TCP stream.
    I've rebooted, upgraded to 10.7.4, checked the "sysctl" outputs and matched against a Mac not having the issue.
    This is the newest MBP 15 inch model.
    Any other ideas on things to check?

    Have you used any sort of "tuner" software? You are obviously an advanced user. Sometimes we hack things up and forget about it later. If you are sure you didn't do that, maybe poke around with IPv6 settings. Supposedly people are trying to enable that and it is going to be a disaster.

  • HT1267 hi there my kid put a password on my iphone and now is lock and he forgot the password is there a way that i can unlock it

    HI IS THERE A WAY TO UNLOCK AN IPHONE WITH OUT A PASSWORD AND PHONE IS DISABLE

    Do as the manual says to do and restore the iphone.
    Please turn off your caps lock.  All caps indicates shouting, is considered rude, and is difficult to read.  Many will not read such posts.

  • My fully charged iPhone 4 has shut itself off and will not turn back on. It also does not register when connected to my Mac. Any suggestions?

    My fully charged iPhone 4 shut itself off this morning and wont turn back on. Any suggestions?

    Have you tried holding down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.   If that doesn't work, try that step again but with your phone plug into your Mac.

    Try #5.
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Hello Tholc
    The reason for that is the screen motion that is enabled. With certain photos and how they were taken, they will be zoomed in so that there is no black space on the photo.

  • HT2534 When I try to set up an Apple ID, it's asking for a credit card, and there is no "None" option, like this page suggests. How can I bypass this? This iPad is for a younger child who has no credit card, and will not need to make any purchases.
