Solved!

11 times out of 10, water damaged is not covered under warranty.
I'm very sorry for your loss.
Hope you manage to get the moisture out, you can pull teh device apart and shave off the rust and corrosion you see buy purchasing a mobile repair kit, however rust spreads in a matter of months..
If your issue is resolved, put a checkmark in the green box that contains the resolution.

If it was just/or also really helpful - Give it a Kudos.. Go on Mate.. Help the rest of the clueless blackberry user world find their answer too..

Forgot my passcode and the computer i backed it up on doesn't work, what can i do.

forgot my passcode and the computer i backed it up on doesn't work, what can i do.

Erasing the device is supposed to erase the passcode which is supposed to allow you to activate the device again. Let it go for the 10 minutes and then see if you can activate it again. You can also try erasing the device again and see what happens.
Go to icloud.com/#find.
If prompted, sign in with your iCloud Apple ID.
Click All Devices at the top of your browser window.
Select the device you want to erase.
Click "Erase [device]" to erase your device and its passcode.
Use the Setup Assistant on your device to restore the most recent backup.
This is what Apple recommends, so you have to trust that it is going to work .....

I updated iphone 4 to ios 7.1 and the camera doesn't work. what can I do?

i updated iphone 4 to ios 7.1 and the camera doesn't work. what can I do?

First, 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 after installing new software or apps.
If this does not help, and to rule out a software issue, set it up as new device without using the latest backup, in case that backup contains corrupt data.
Is the camera working after that, restore from the backup. Is the camera still not working, this might be a hardware failure and you'll have to get the phone serviced by Apple:

HT4061 I have an iphone 3gs - the new ios 6.1 (?) upgrade has inabled my phone. I get a white apple on the screen. can't reset phone - doesn't work. what can I do besides take phone into Apple?

I have an iphone 3gs - yes, an older iphone.
This morning apple had a msg that asked if I wanted to upgrade to the new ios 6.1 (?). I said yes. Now I can't use my phone. I've tried hitting the power and other buttons. I get a white apple on the screen. can't reset phone - doesn't work. what can I do besides take phone into Apple? This *****! I realize (now from reading internet) that my phone/system may be uncompatible. Help!

I have a 3GS (a true classic design!) and have upgraded it to 6.1 today. The process did not go without a glitch - it took a few attempts to get the app's to sync but after detecting the ones causing an issue and deleting them it works - so far! I have had issues about 50% of the numerous times a new OS is uploaded to this phone and always take the new OS with trepidation. But at least you know there is a 3GS with 6.1 working OK.
I suggest you do a fresh restart to the phone several times - without it being connected to the computer - to see if it gets its act together and starts. I think it will. Hold down the top 'power' button and front round control button until it shuts down - goes blank and dead. Then press the top power button to re-activate - reboot - it.
If that does not work then plug into your itunes computer, navigate in iTunes to see your iPhone and hopefully you will be able to sync it or at least 'restore iPhone' from the 'summary' tab.
If you can not get onto the iphone perhaps you will still be able to sync if in iTunes by going - 'file' - 'devices' - 'sync iphone' or failing that try transfer purchases' and ultimately 'restore from back-up'.
I had technical problems with my old 3GS (suffered a failed wireless antenna) so I took it to an Apple Store and they issued me with a service-replacement/reconditioned phone for a very modest charge. So if worst come to the worst get a new phone that way!

More information please.
Version of Reader? OS? Can you open reader by double-clicking on its icon? Can you open reader by double-clicking on a pdf file? What programs are trying to open reader? Some programs might be restricting your ability to view pdf files using the Reader plug-in due to security concerns. If this is the case you need to find out how to enable the plug-in in the case of each application.

If My Lock Button Doesn't Work What Can I Do To Shut Down The Phone?

More than likely a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby to confirm.

IPod Touch accelerometor doesn't work, what can I do?

When I turn my iPod Touch on Safari or Albums, my screen doesn't turn, what can I do?
Thanks

First thing to consider, are you turning holding it vertically or horizontally when you turn? It has to be more or less horizontal for it to work.
If it still doesn't work, setup an appointment with an Apple Genius to test it some more, and more than likely get a new one.

I Sold iPod On eBay - Buyer Says It Doesn't Work - What Can I Do?

I got an iPod that didn't work. It was swapped out for me sometime last year. Rather than use it, I decided to sell it on eBay.
The buyer received the item, left positive feedback, and 3 days later, told me that it didn't work. He filed a PayPal claim and now I have to refund his money?!?!?!?!
What can I do? The iPod is over a year old. Aside from filing a claim with the USPS (which may not go through), can Apple fix it? Will it cost me money? How much? Is it guaranteed to be fixed?
What should I do?
Thanks.

The iPod I am getting back will have a different serial number than the serial number on the box being sent back as well.
Which iPod are we referring to here?
If I open it in front of the USPS worker/deliveryman, and there aren't matching serial numbers, would Apple ever find out if I made a claim with PayPal that a different iPod was returned to me?
To be fair, whilst I'm wiling to give help here on the Forums, I'm not going to assist in any actions that defraud PayPal (or anyone else for that matter).
And talking about such actions here on Apple's officially sanctioned iPod forums (where your posts are preserved for posterity) is probably not a good idea.

Cannot open I website with my pc at home. tried it on an other pc and the website works. what can i do to fix it?

We have a website at work www.trag.gr The site works but as soon as you skip intro and you try to enter the link for the Therapeutic Riding World Congress (http://www.frdi-athens2012.gr/) the link will not open. Tried it through another PC and the site works just fine. From my pc there is a message that there is a firewall that does not allow Mozilla to open the page.
What can I do to fix this?

You need to transfer the purchased content from the iPad to the iTunes library on the laptop. Read the post from virtualgeo on how to accomplish what you want to do.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/11527071#11527071
If you are running iOS 5 and backing up to iCloud, there is really no need to go through all of that - IMO - but if you want to, it is possible to do so.
If you decide to do this, You will now have iTunes telling you that the iPad has been synced to another iTunes library each time that you sync with the other computer.

HT1212 if you cannot remember passcode you selected and get locked out of iphone 4 and it says to connect to itunes and it doesnt work what can you do to have use of your phone again?????

ITunes keeps freezing no matter what I try. No that it controls all my music, and doesn't work, what am I supposed to do?

It seems that iTunes doesn't want to work. I've reinstalled, ugraded and restarted my computer. But nothing seems to work iTunes keeps freezing. Now it's just a useless app on my computer. It controls all the music and it's taken many hours to be bothered to use it, now that I depend on it it doesn't work. Is there another more reliable program that organizes and transfers music to iPods? Or am I just stuck with the music thats on my iTunes?
I'm not really impressed and that my family has many apple products that are mainly run by this one piece of software is mind bogglling.
Are there older versions of iTunes to use? because before this last update I had no issues.

If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID and that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
