8.1 connects phone to car and won't hangup

8.1 initiates a call when I turn on the ignition. I deleted and repaired and it still happens. It worked for a week, just started yesterday.

It seems to me you have two problems. The battery charging and the connection to iTunes..
Re the first, it sounds like you need a new battery. They are fairly easy to replace oneself, but if there is a local shop that can do it, so much the better.
Re connecting to iTunes,  I found two solutions on Apple Support Communities. Apple's solution is first. That didn't work for me. The second method worked for me on two computers and three devices. And no side effects so far, i.e. Time Machine is fine. It is not Apple's recommended method.
Apple solution:
1.1 Terminal: defaults delete com.apple.SyncServer SyncServicesResetWorldRunOnce
1.2 Reboot your computer.
1.3 Unplug and reconnect your device(s)See this link for the article
Hatchet solution
2.1. Go to ~/Library/ApplicationSupport
2.2. Find the folder SyncServices
2.3. Delete it.
2.4. Reboot your computer
2.5. Unplug and reconnect your iOS device(s).

  • HT4623 I installed the latest update this morning and my phone turned off and won't turn back on.  Help!

    My battery was fully charged.  The notice for an update came up so I told it to start.  Then the phone shut off and won't turn back on.  When I plug it back in, I can hear it "revving" but it still won't turn on.  Any ideas?

    Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
    If this does not work, try to connect in recovery mode, explained here:

    You will need to Restore it as a New Device...
    Restore...
    1: Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
    3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the steps in this article to force the device into recovery mode.

  • HT4113 uh my phone is broken and won't turn on. so I'm getting a new phone and need to back it up but i need to unlock my passcode to backup but my phones locked sooooo idk ;/

    Nothing you can do, sorry to say.  If it will not turn on there is absolutely nothing you can do now to backup what is on it.  The whole point of a backup is to have made it before disaster strikes.  Now, with a dead iPhone, all you can do is accept the loss of your data.
    You will be able to re-download iTunes and App store purchases since they are tied to your AppleID, not your device.
    Have you been using iCloud for backup?  If you have, then you should have a backup in iCLoud you can use to restore your replacement phone with.  iCloud backups are automatic (once every 24hrs, whenever your device is on wifi, plugged in and asleep).

  • HT4528 my phone shut off and won't turn back on

    my phone shut off and won't turn back on

    Connect iPhone to Wall Charger for about 10 minutes. If may turn ON itself. If still OFF, keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, this can take about 20 seconds of holding both buttons while on charger.

  • My phone recently crashed and won't turn back on.

    My phone ( iPhone 5c, IOS 7.3 ) recently crashed and won't turn back on. I randomly looked at my phone and there were green and red horizontal lines flickering. My immediate thought was to try to turn it off, so i could try to turn it back on. I held the home and power button down and the screen went black. When i tried turning it back on ( holding power button ) there was no response. For the past day, my phone hasn't been responding to anything.
    (A day before the crash my phone cracked from a serious fall onto a concrete floor without a case I do not know if this has any relation to the crash )

    It most likely has a lot to do with your crash.
    Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
           other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
       2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
           until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    If this doesn't help, then make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.
    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
    iPod Service Support and Costs
    iPhone Service Support and Costs
    iPad Service Support and Costs
    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
    1. iResq or Google for others.
    2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

  • Phone Turns Off and Won't Turn Back On

    Twice this week my phone has completely powered off while I wasn't using it and won't power back on until i remove the battery.  Very frustrating- I'm wondering if it is overheating although neither time was it hot.  Anyone else have this problem?

    How are you charging it by the the charger that came with or by your computer if it is use the charger that come with the phone, there's an app called system panel in the market down load it. It will tell you what the apps are doing an it can tell what &  how much your cpu is doing an it will also tell the temperature of the phone an the battery temp. as well.
    But if you can't get it to come on an your under your 14 days don't mess around with it.  return it an get another one or another phone. 

  • I have problem with 4s and my car 2011 passant cc always drob after I connect phone to car . What Can I do to solve this problem ?

    I have the same problem with my car passat cc 2011 and my phone 4s that drob connection and  calls after time so what can I do to solve this problem ?

    It's a really bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it.
    If a second-hand iOS device has been 'Activation locked' then only the previous owner - effectively the shop in this case - can unlock it, either by providing you with the account ID and password, or by removing it from his list of devices (as he should have done before selling it) - please see http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4515
    If you are unable to contact them to do this then I'm afraid you will not be able to use the device - there is no other way of unlocking it at all. Apple cannot unlock it for you.

  • 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.
