3.1.2 crashed my phone. Now, it won't restore - tried to restore 6x.

Thanks Apple. Your software updates have ruined my phone. Update 3.1.1 made it so my iPhone wouldn't charge. My phone was unsable for 1 week because I couldn't charge it. Now, with Update 3.1.2 - it crashed my phone & now it won't restore. Now, it's really just a paperweight.

I've been trying everything since this post. It finally restored. I restarted my computer - no luck. I unplugged my USB cable & plugged it right back in to the same slot - it worked!?!? So, I have restored. It works sort of. I have no battery left, so I've had to turn it off to charge it. I'll see if it works in the morning. Try turning off the computer, unplugging the usb & plugging it back in. Using different usb slots, etc. I've found if you keep hammering restore over & over again with some wierd things like that, you might get lucky. Good luck at the store.

HT5278 I am trying to unlock my phone - this required me to download itunes onto a friend's PC in PNG. Now it won't restore the phone (which I have to do in order to unlock it) without downloading this 800Mb file, which will cost me approx AUD$200. Help.

Are there any other options out there?

Nope. You need an .ipsw file to restore your phone & since your friend didn't have iTunes, obviously there is no current .ipsw file to use. You can go to an Apple store, use your own computer, find another computer, but you can't restore without a current signed .ipsw file.

Thanks for responding but the link seems to be relevant to Windows. Is there a similar method for Android phones?

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

HT4528 My iPhone 4s would not sync - it kept canceling. I backed it up and did a full system restore. Now it won't restore my apps. It starts on 1 of 51 and then tells me it's canceling sync and it stops. My apps are all black. How do I fix this?

My iPhone 4S kept canceling while syncing. In the Apple support communities, it was recommended that I do a full system restore. I backed the phone up and did the restore. Now it won't finish the restore process. It gets to where it will restore the apps and it says "copying 1 of 51", and then it cancels the sync. I have no apps on the phone - they are all black and they say "waiting". How do I get the apps reloaded on the phone? Do I have to delete them all and redownload them? I'm not even sure that will work. Do I go to Verizon and ask if they can fix it? Any suggestions?

VGA adapter crashed my ipad now it won't turn back on again

I connected my iPad to my Panasonic plasma TV's PC port using the VGA adapter. I was watching a youtube video. I left the room and when I returned a few minutes later after the video had finished and the TV was blank (no problem there as the video had finished), but my iPad had switched itself off and now won't turn back on again. It's completely unresponsive. There was about 35% battery left.
Can anyone help?! I've used the adapter with this TV many times before with no problems whatsoever... weird.

try holding both buttons until the apple logo appears and then let them go and wait for phone to restart

Dropped phone now screen won't work

Hi, I bought a Blackberry Pearl around 2 weeks ago. Today, for the first time, I dropped it from a height of 3 feet and the screen went white. I removed the battery because I could not turn it off with the button, when I tried to turn it back on, the screen would not respond. I get a black screen now, however, the cellphone still works, I still get calls. What do you recommend I do because where I am from, the people who can actually repair the blackberrys work for private companies and I purchased my phone online. First question, can the blackberry still be saved? Second question, is the repair process simple? Would a new screen do the deed? I hope someone can assist me with this I was deeply shocked when I realized the phone didn't work the fall was nothing out of the ordinary and the phone was brand new, I feel ripped off .

It may have been a simple fall, but depending on how / where the phone "hit" the floor could have caused damage. Remember that electronic devices are fickle and sensitive to minor "shocks", so your phone very well could have fallen on that "magic spot" that made it break.
As for getting it fixed, you don't mention where you are, but you may want to search for an online repair shop that you can send your phone to.

My MacBook crashed whilst installing, now it won't open. Can you help me?

i had to restart my MacBook after it crashed s it was the only option to take when my computer screen just went black after freezing. Once i restarted, Flash Professional Cs5.5 wasn't installed because I couldn't' find it however there was an option to uninstall it. So i did to try and start the process of installing the software again. Everything went fine until i clicked on the 'install' file when a window came up saying that i should 'Eject the disk image'. This means that it wont let me install Flash professional! How can I eject the disk image and what is it? Thanks,

uninstall if anything cs5.5 is installed. then clean (Do a clean install), restart your computer and reinstall.

Hi Kid Calculator-
You can try resetting the SMU and the PRAM but you should also consider the possibility that the drive no longer works.
