TS4036 I haven't used my ipad for several weeks and now it is locked and displaying 'This ipad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi'. I cannot do anything at all.

I haven't used my ipad for several weeks and now I can't do anything on it, it seems to be locked and I cannot unlock it. The screen just seems to be frozen with the following message 'This ipad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to WiFi'. Help please!

Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

The "edit in" menu is completely inactive. All plug-ins are visible but in light grey; i.e. not accessible. Any idea how to solve the issue? Fyi: I am using LR 5.7.1 on MacBook with Mawericks.

Jim, that sounds like a good hypothesis. Yes, I am using smart previews. I have my originals on an external drive which is connected. Still, LR can not find them. Do you know how to tell LR where to find the originals? I would like LR to identify the source automatically: if external drive is connected LR should show "original and smart preview" not only "smart preview". Thanks for your help.

My iPhone will not charge when I plug it first, I have to unplug it and when I plug it again, then it charges

My iPhone 4 (GSM) will not charge when I plug it first, I have to unplug it and when I plug it again, then it charges... It is very weird... Has this happened to anyone?
Thank you in advance for the answer.

It is yet happening to me. In my case it happens when I plug it to any kind of charger: socket, car... I have to pull it out the phone and plug it in again so it reacts and starts charging.
Of course, I tried cleaning with a soft, dry brush. This had no effect.
Thanks again and best regards.

Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. Get your lock button fixed then you can restore your phone.

My iphone died and when I plugged it back in to charge it when it powered on the screen remained black. I can hear when I receive a text and a hear siri. I have tried holding down the sleep and home button

My iphone died & I plugged it back in to charge when it powered on the screen remained black. I can hear when I receive a text and siri. I have tried holding down the sleep and home button and restoring in itunes neither worked. The screen on the phone is cracked but has been working fine until now. Please help!!!

Here's how to perform the restore:

If you can actually get to restore, maybe (I estimate a 0.01% chance) you'll be able to do a backup before the restore. Actually, from the symptoms you describe, I suspect a restore won't work either and you'll need to do a recovery.
Just in case, if you need to recover (restore fails), here's how. Note you may have to try to get into recovery mode more than once.

- Try a reset.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then try restoring the iPod.
- If still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I haven't used my iphone5s for 3 months and now after pluging it sais "repeat in 23076900"what does it mean?whst should i do to turn it on?

help

This means the iphone is disabled due to too many incorrect Passcode entries.
You our only option is to restore the device. Please note you will loose ALL info currently on the device.
To restore open iTunes on your computer. Plug your cable into the computer but not the phone. Now power down the iphone. once completely shut down, press and HOLD the home button and plug the cable into the phone and continue holding the home button until the itunes logo appears on the phone.
ITunes es will see the device in recovery mode and ask you to restore.
CLick restore and your good to go.

If a reset doesn't work, try and force iPad into Recovery Mode:
1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
2. Connect USB cable to computer
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPad
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

My iPhone4 won't turn on even after being charged for 1 hour and when I plug it into my computer nothing happens

My iPhone4 won't turn on even after being charged for 1 hour and when I plug it into my computer nothing happens. PLEASE HELP

I have a similar (if not the exact same) problem! Here are some more details if they are helpful.
My iPhone 4 died earlier today and will not turn back on. It seemed that the battery died while it was not in use. I attempted to charge it on one charging cord in multiple wall outlets and none worked. Assuming it was a malfunction in the cord, I took my phone home to try charging it there.
Again, I attempted charging it in multiple outlets with a different cord than previously used. None of these seemed to work, though they would flash the Connect to Power screen for a brief moment before returning to a black screen. I assumed that my phone was simply so depleted of battery that it needed a long charge.
I charged it for 30+ minutes without any success, then attempted to charge it through my MacBook instead of through a wall outlet. iTunes did not even recognize that my phone plugged in (and still hasn't). I've attempted charging it for an extended period of time (1+ hour) with no luck. Sometimes when I press the Power button it will flash the Connect to Power screen once more before returning to black.
The Apple logo never appears, nor does any apparent progress on charging. I have attempted holding down the Power and Home buttons simultaneously for 10 - 30 second increments. Still no luck. There is no reason anything should be happening with this phone that I can identify.
I have no warranty and just recently replaced my previous phone which had had similar problems before completely crashing. This is a phone new to me that was previously used but in almost new conditions and factory reset by Apple prior to my purchase.
Does this mean that my phone battery is dead?
Is there anything else I can do??

My iPhone 4 won't turn on unless I plug it in to a charger it says the battery is 100% and that I need to conect to iTunes when I plug it in to my computer it just comes up with a flashing apple logo :(

Didn't work in what way. Are you unable to start it up? Does it start but then freezes? Does the screen stay black when you turn it on?
Try this - press the home and power buttons and keep pressing them until the apple logo appears.

I haven't used my iPad 1 for months and now am trying to charge it, but it doesn't seem to be charging. Is the battery no longer good?

I haven't used my iPad 1 for months and now am trying to charge it, but it doesn't seem to be charging. Is the battery no longer good because it hasn't been used for so long?

I just ran into this. You have to make sure you're using an iPad charger (the bricklet is larger) in a wall outlet. Leave it alone for several hours, then do the reset while it's still plugged in (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). It should make a comeback.
