Cant make any phone calls...please help

when i go to the phone i cannot pick a contact, edit a contact, dial a number, basically i cant use any phone features. nothing. i cant use favorites, recents, keypad, or voicemail, the only thing i can do is scroll my contacts, and go back home. everything else on the "phone" works fine, except for this pretty important feature. i can answer calls, but not make them. my "phone" is only been out the box barely 24 hours and this already happened...anybody help?

I just had the same problem. The way I resolved it was by holding the button on the top down for several seconds. You are then prompted to "slide to power off". Power it off, and then press the button on the top again to restart your iphone. I was then able to use all of the phone functions again.

    If you've forgotten the passcode to unlock your phone then you will need to connect it to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the phone and restore/re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the phone into recovery mode in order to be able to reset it : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If you do it via a computer that it's not synced to, and which therefore doesn't have a backup on it, then :
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

    I'm now letting it on to test will the problem come back or not...

    Turn your phone off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.
    Unfortunately, the data on your phone is already gone if you're seeing the connect to iTunes logo.

    Try the Boot Camp Assistant when you are in OS X and download those and follow the directions in BCA utility.
    Then look up the Boot Camp forum. I suspect you thought this was MBP related forum, it is for 65 lb tower model (and well the new "nMP Late 2013 Mac Pro" http://www.apple.com/support/macpro/

  • I cant download any software updates please help!

    I have had my Mac less than a week and I cant download any software updates.
    I am using Mac OS X 10.6.6 everytime I try to update the software I get either this message
    'The update could not be expanded and may have been corrupted' or  'An error occurred during installation'
    I have tried to download each update separately with no luck.
    I have also tried turning off screen saver and energy saving settings with no luck and I have tried downloading it at different times of the day.
    Not sure what else I can do!
    Please Help! :/ 

    Boot with the install disc that shipped with the machine, launch Disk Utility, and repair the disk. If that's successful, reinstall the OS, repair permissions, and try Software Update again.

  • I have a new telephone company since yesterday, the problem is that my IPhone 4 is blocked so I can't make any phone calls neither receive them

    I have a new telephone company since yesterday, the problem is that I can't make phone calls or receive them.  Maybe my IPhone 4 is blocked.

    Did you get a new unactivated micro-SIM card from your new carrier or one that was already activated?
    Regardless, if your iPhone is officially unlocked you need to contact the new carrier.

  • Need an equal exchange of damaged game and I recieved bad service on a phone call please help!

    Sorry for the long post, please bare with me.
    Good Morning and Happy New Year. I wanted to share my frustrations and hope someone here could help me.
    I'm located near the Albany NY store, and on Black Friday I ordered Diablo 3  for ps4 for the sale price. Sadly when the item arrived, you can clearly hear that the disc is loose in the case, if I shine a flashlight in I can clearly tell the plastic pieces that hold the disc are broken and the disc is knocking around, so I wanted to exchange for the same game.
    I went to my local store, which did not have stock, and I've been waiting it out, seeing as it was 12/31 last night and my local store did not have the game in stock, I called and spoke to a rep at about 6:15 EST. Alas, after talking with a rep named Rodney here is my summary of what happened: I explained I have an unopened game that is damaged and I wanted to exchange it. He explained I would need to return it at my local store or go to Pitsfield MA. I asked if I could do some sort of exchange over the phone and his response was "We do not take any video game software returns because we cannot verify you did not open the item" I was blown away, so I asked If I bought a game from best buy, the case was crushed to bits, and I lived no where near a best buy store, they would not take it back? HE said yes that is right. I tried to argue the point with him, but he rose his voice at me, and it took about 10 attempts of me asking to speak to his supervisor, as he kept telling me "She's will just tell you the same thing, you need to return it at your local store, *At manager's discretion only, I can't guarantee we will even take it back* or you need to drive to Pitsfield MA (Another State) to exchange it* Then  I demanded to speak to the manager, to which his reply was, she's not available, and gave me the number to the customer relations line and said he could not help me.
    I was blown away, and quite upset, who doesn't take returns on damaged items? I mean I waited for it to come back into stock at my local store and it has not. I don't want to order a new one because I won't get the sale price I paid.
    so I called back and got a different rep, who seemed to not know how to do this either, after a long hold she told me I should get an e-mail with a return label to return it. She also said she could not guarantee any exchange, and that I might just be refunded when it went back, the kicker, I never got the e-mail or return label I was supposed to get right away, so I'm upset and confused on what to do now. I just want an equal exchange for an unopened (but damaged item) for the same thing, and no one has been able to help me, had this been any other store I frequent, I would have gotten this resolved by now. (Target sent me a damaged item, and I called, they sent me a new one right away, with a return label to return the other, Barnes and Noble did the same over the Holiday season with me)
    Please, can someone tell me, short Of driving to another state how I can exchange this item?

    Hello sirpikaz,
    I actually just picked up Diablo 3 on PlayStation 4 and I’m pretty frustrated with myself for not doing it sooner. Having played Diablo on PC for years and years, I’m amazed at how well Diablo 3 ported over to PlayStation 4! That direct control instead of clicking everywhere is just too awesome. With that said, reading of your experience when trying to exchange your copy for another is quite frustrating to me and I feel it could have been handled quite a bit better than what you’ve described. Yes, we have stipulations on returning used games, but it’s clear to me that you aren’t asking for a return here, but a simple exchange!
    In order to provide more detail about your circumstances, I’m going to send you a private message. To check your private messages, make sure you’re logged into your account on the forums and click the small envelope on the top right of the screen.
    Thanks for sharing your feedback in such detail and I’ll be reaching out to you shortly!
