Help! I synced my phone and now it's not working?!

I synced my iPhone today to get the new version 1.1.3 and it was going well until I noticed that my phone service wasn't working. I powered the phone off and powered back on and now all I get is a screen that says "slide for emergency" and all I can do is make an emergency call??????

Ok -- problem solved but I don't know why.
After iTunes gave me that error message, I noticed it showed my iPhone under devices so I clicked on sync. That gave me a new message on iTunes that said it couldn't read my SIM card and to go to the AT&T store to get a new one. Out of frustration I removed the phone from the dock and then put it back in the dock...this time I got a message on my phone that it had been updated and when I clicked the slider it wanted my passcode. And my phone service appears to be fine.
But.. to avoid this scare next time...I assume I should leave the phone plugged into the computer until I get the "phone is updated" message ON the phone. Correct?

I restored my phone and now receiver is not working

My phone crashed several times in the last week while on the road. It would Go into auto shutdown. I restarted it and would get the same error. Finally I did a reset. I could not plug into iTunes since I am on the road.
NOw my ringer does not work. The speaker works, blue tooth works, and my earbuds work, but not the ringer. How do I resolve this issue?

Do you have Do Not Disturb enabled? Settings>Do Not Disturb
Do you have the mute switch engaged? It's the little slider over the volume buttons on the side. If you can see orange, it's engaged. Slide it the other way.

Depending on what iPhone you have when you get to the connect to wifi you should be able to activate your device over cellular data. Try doing a hard reset by holding the home circle button an power button until an apple pops up and the go through the setup again and when you get to the wifi part a option should be setup with cellular data iPhone 4 and above should give this option sometimes doesn't like showing up that's why u have to do a hard reset first

Where do you get your contacts from?
Do you use Outlook?
Have you made a back up of your iPhone on iTunes/iCloud when the contacts were on it?
Do you use Windows or a Mac?

i had the same fright
The update takes a LONG time... but with the new system, you can keep using your phone during the update, so it doesnt FEEL like it is updating...
you have probably interrupted the update, just like I did
plug your phone in... "continue the update" or hit the sync button to psh it in... and leave it there
unless you have enabled sync over wifi (which still only works when you are plugged in)
just be patient... and there shouldbe a flashing "synching" symbol at the top of your phone screen

Sea water and electronics don't mix. The salinity fries the internal circuitry of the phone. Your phone is toast.
Certainly the user of any device which can be lost, stolen, or dropped in the sea would be smart enough to have had the data backed up, rght? Your photos and numbers should be safely backed up on your computer or in the cloud.
If you didn't do this, there's no way to recover those data now. Backups are meant to be done BEFORE disaster strikes, not after.

I wet my i phone 4 and now it is not working

Can someone help me my i phone 4 got wet slightly while at the beach and now it is not working, it does not turn on.

This is likely to happen when you get electronics wet.
The worst thing you can do is try to charge it or turn it on, until it has had a week or so to dry.
It is probably gone.
Let it dry for a week or so and see if it will turn on.

Activation issues are almost always the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken. If that is the case, no support can be provided here.

I upgraded to iphone 5c at the end of Dec. I accidentally washed my phone and now it doesn't work. Is there a way to get a new or refurbished iphone 5c without signing a new contract?

Thank you. I've been looking online for refurbished iphones but that is cheaper than buying a refurbished phone.

I have the i phone four and just uploaded to my computer and now it will not work has the apple logo with a long oval bar under it

It may be that it is stuck loading. You will want to probably first attempt a Hard Reset (Home Button + Power Button for 5-10s until it restarts with an Apple Logo then let it load up) and see if this will get it working.

Turn it off and put it in a bag of rice for 5-7 days. You may get lucky.
