HElllp! I havent even had my Iphone 4 for a year yet. About a week ago my phone stopped charger! please HELP ME! i cant buy a new one yet, so im hoping you guys can help me
This is my Story...
About a week ago i was seddling into bed. I plugged my phone into my dock as usual, heard the vibrate telling that it was hooked up and charging properly. I went to bed, then woke up and went to grab my phone. I noticed it was only 94% the top right corner in the battery it didnt show the lightning bolt, which means its still charging. I never really thought anything of it at the time. by like 1:00 i looked at my phone, and it was already 50% I decided to plug my phone back into the charger. IT WOULDNT CONNECT!! i started to cry... what was i gunna do? that all my money spent on it! I tried my USB for my labtop, ive tried 2 different docks, and i also took it into Sasktel and they plugged it in to. After the day went by, my phone completly lost battery and... turned off!! thats when i started going into Sasktel etc. i was FREAKING out!!! (still am!)
All my phone will still do is when i press the power button it a picture of the red dead battery shows up, as well as a electricty cord sign, with an arrow to a lightning bolt. i know that means that it needs to be charged. Im so confused it still frashes and shows stuff on my phone.. so it cant be dead .. right? When i went to Sasktel, i got the worker to look at it. He shone a light in the bottom charging spot. he told me after like 5 minutes of looking in there that he can just barely see a super light pink olour on the "white" sticker. He told me it changes to red when it hits water, and moisture. but.... i nver got it wet. i just woke up with it like this. so, i sunno how that changed colour. im gunna call apple again tommorow and see what they say. i really hop someone can help me, i dont wanna loose all my pictures and contacts. i have some valueably stuff. 1,500 picture!!! :O sooo please! any idea is help, and i hope at least someone will try
So far, ive tried the trick where u hold the home and power button for 30 seconds. It showed the dead battery lightning bolt sign. And tried many different plugs. People say, that because its a little pink, its toast. i dont beleive that, cause, it worked alll day tell it finally died! no probablems at all. so i just need to get it backon again. ill tell you what apple says when i call. HELP
all i wish for is for you guys to try, and say what you know! anything is better! i will try EVERYTHING!
If you've had it for less than a year, then it's still under warranty. Take it to an Apple store or an authorized service facility. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1434

Hi, I have a problem with getting my apple Id working for me. It's been 2 months since it happened and Apple failed to act. I can tell my story proerly, but am not sure, you guys can help, so I just copy my message to them today, I am trying to get it across all the places around to pay their attention. This is a desperate move, so if you are not the right people to help me to get my message accross, may be you can advise where can I go.
Thank you, and sorry for the language.

I am sorry to say that, but your security makes my life miserable – it’s been 2 months since my Apple ID account got stuck, and since then I cannot update 37 applications (to date), i.e. most of my applications. Half of them I bought. I also paid for iCloud, and it is not working. I paid money and I am stuck with old applications and no iCloud. Your security *****. Your service ***** too. It took your service 1 month to finally understand why this happened to me, and it took me tens of emails to you and 3 hours of telephone conversation to find out the reason for my problem. And the problem is still not fixed. NOT FIXED. You just leave your customer – the one who paid you money and spent so much time with you trying to help you help me – and nothing. You tell me: “Vitas, Stick your stinky iphone in your *** and enjoy life, we do not care!” *************.
It is ******* outrageous, and you should know that, guys. Get into the ******* database and correct the bug. Get someone in the partners-telephone carriers company (it is Orange as carreer and Cellcom as seller of the phone) authorized to Identify me in personal encounter in one of the branches in Israel (where I live) and make sure it is really me, and get the ******* system accept my password and let me use my phone.
Otherwise **** off. None of my friends will get my advise to buy an iphone or any of apple products. And I think you should be very attentive to cases like this, guys. Do your work for the money we pay, or disappear. There are many others eager to take your place, and if the problem is not fixed I will eventually go to the others. My patience is lost, and as soon as I can afford another phone I will change it. AND I WILL TRY TO GIVE BAAAAAD PUBLICITY TO APPLE – I am threatening here, so ACT NOW.
Vitas DijokasWell, it seems waiting is not my strong suit..! I renamed a javascript file called recovery to sessionstore. This file was in the folder sessionstore-backups I had copied from mozilla 3 days ago, when my tabs were still in place. I replaced the sessionstore in mozilla's default folder with the renamed file and then started mozilla. And the tabs reappeared as they were 3 days ago!
So there goes the tab problem. But again when I started mozilla the window saying "a script has stopped responding" appeared, this time the script being: chrome//browser/contenttabbrowser.xml2542

I've had an iphone for several years and have never had a problem syncing. Now...when I plug my phone in it wants to delete all my apps when I sync. Not sure what to do. HELP

You're on your own. Good luck. -
I have tried reinstalling Firefox, changing this setting back and forth in "Options", and everything else I can think of. I love Firefox, but if this continues, I'm just uninstalling altogether--this is a huge inconvenience. Help! :)
== I was using Firefox about a week ago. I had not changed anything, either!Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I need to update my phone, but my computer broke, and do not have a new one. can I use someone else computer to go through with the update if i log on with my itunes account or Is there a chance of loosing all my data, ie: music/photos? And if all else fails can i go to the apple store and have them update my phone?
Update to what? The 3G you want to update? You have ios3 or 4 on that 3G?
Go to a friend, authorize that pc.

Make a backup of your stuff (from the phone. apps/photos/music/blabla). Update your phone. The phone will restore the backup automatically. -
HI, my name is Daisy Belleza and my iPod Touch (second generation) was stolen two to three weeks ago. I am hopeless without and have endlessly searched the Internet for ways to find and get it back. I'm hoping that the Apple Store will be able to somehow locate my stolen iPod...
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone
- You can also have to iPod play a sound via iCloud. -
I'm unable to access the email account attached to my apple account and used to set up ITunes (hotmail account was jacked). How do I change the email account if I can't access the old one?
Hi,
Try heading here. Click "Manage your account", login and change your primary email address. You'll then be sent a confirmation email to your new primary address that will ask you to verify it as your own. Click the link, log in, and you're done.
I hope you find this useful,

Okay.
I bought a used 2009 MBP (2.53 GHz 4GB)
I knew it only charged when I plugged it in, and just assumed it was the battery being a 2009 computer.
So, I bought a new battery on Amazon, and it was (apparently) an Apple part (or so i say because the batteries looked exactly alike)
So last night I install the battery to find that the original owner must've opened it, too, because 2 of the three battery screw slots were broken off and missing.
Whatever.
I install the new battery, and STILL it only works when plugged in. Upon plugging in the MagSafe, the light is amber for about 5 seconds and then turns to green. Last night, my MBP said "No Batteries Detected" with the black X but the battery condition was "Normal"
I reset the SMC and PRAM, and still it didn't see the battery. So I left it plugged in all night, woke up to find that the battery is now recognized, but still says: "Condition: Normal Battery is Not Charging Power Source: Power Adapter" then shows the battery with a plug inside it, with 0% next to the battery.
The computer shipped with a 60 watt charger, but the original owner replaced it with an 85 watt 3rd party charger after a pet incident.
I don't think it would be the motherboards seeing as how I just upgraded from 10.6.8 to 10.9 and the computer works flawlessly, and I guess replacing the MagSafe port is next.
Is there anything I'm doing wrong or anything that would cause this?Third party batteries and chargers are always a high risk proposition. You have tried the correct things (except perhaps purchasing the Amazon battery) and the best option at this point is to bring it to an Apple store genius bar. Have them examine it and they should be able to determine what the flaws are. The diagnosis will be free.

In the actual game center app, when i click on the "games" tab, nothing displays. It should display my games and achievements- however, it doesn't. Any advice or help?

I NEED help so daly if you guys can please please please help?????????
I really need help... if you guys can help me out please i would greatly appreciate it i have a two year extended warranty on my ipad 3rd gen and i was robbed and hospitallized. the thing is i need it for my college classes is it possible that my warranty will cover me for a new one??????????????
Try going to www.icloud.com and logging into your apple id. If you have find my ipad on you may be able to track it down. Warranty does not cover lost or stolen devices, and is strictly tracked by serial number. At the very least you could try to do a data wipe.
A positive spin is that your apps can be redownloaded for free on a new device if you can't find your older unit.
Good luck. I hope you find it. -
I have an iPhone 5 from India. I am going to USA for studying. Can I use the same iPhone over there or I will have to buy a new one?
If officially unlocked, you can purchase a sim from one of the two nationwide GSM carriers, AT&T or T-Mobile. However, AFAIK, none of the carriers in India offer unlocking for the iPhone. Thus, if your phone is carrier locked, the only way it will work in the US is roaming...that would cost a fortune.
So, if you have a carrier locked iPhone, leave it home or sell it before you come to the US, then purchase an officially unlocked iPhone, from Apple, when you get to the US. You'll be able to use that phone in India when you go back. -
I take my sim out of my phone so that I won't be tempted to make phone calls while abroad. I now have the issue of having lost my phone and not being able to find it with the "Find My Iphone". I am still technically under a 90 day warranty but can my phone be replaced or do I have to buy a new one?
The warranty covers defects in manufacturing and workmanship. If your phone is not operating properly and has not been physically damaged, it will be replaced under warranty.
The warranty is NOT insurance against theft or loss.
You will have to purchase a new phone. -
