Help Iphone 4 isnt showing a charge and keeps reseting itself???????

Hey there I got the new iphone 4 and when I got it I connected it to my mac, I was asked did i want to retore all my previous information from my 3G iphone to it I said yes. Is this my problem do I need to retore my Iphone 4 back to its factory setting and start from a fresh with all new apps and stuff??????

UPDATE:
From research ive been doing, a lot of people are having this same problem. I have found a solution! Kind of. It involved removing the back (DO NOT DO THIS IF YOUR PHONE IS UNDER WARRANTY IT WILL INVALIDATE IT) and some what moving around the battery chord, which im assuming was knocked loose. After i did that, my iPhone was able to hold a charge long enough to turn it on. BUT it still said searching and the date was back in like 1969. So I put my phone in airplane mode and turned it off and let it sit for a while. Once i turned my iphone back on, it worked fine. I have been staying off my phone and keeping the battery at 90%-100%, avoiding phone calls. Mind you, this is my personal expierence, I'm not a professional, but this worked for me. hopefully it can work for someone else.

IPod 120gb isn't recognized by computer and keeps resetting itself

I have a iPod Classic 120gb and it has been playing up for nearly a year now so I gave up on it. The other day I got it out and started to try and fix it again, but still haven't had any luck. It constantly restarts itself and only occasionaly tells me to conect it cause it needs to be restored on itunes, however when I plug it my computer doesn't recognise it (or if it does and I try to restore I get an error message (1933 i think)). I have even tried to use Disk Utilities and it can never finish reformating or erasing my ipod.
Strangely my iPod often seems to think it is in Disk Mode also, and I have no idea why. I have searched online but haven't found andy help and I have looked on many sites but none of the standard tricks seem to work, i.e. the 5R's.
Anyone had trouble like this in the past?
NEED HELP URGENTLY!

My apologies. if my urgent help is 1 week old and you have already solved your problems, by throwing it out of the window.
After recharging it for at least 2 hours, do the iPod Disk Diagnostics, as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem but helps in troubleshooting.
The report, may tell us if it is recoverable using Disk Utility Erase, or have to replace the hardisk.

My iPod has not been working for a month now and i was hoping that you could help me.The part where you charge and sync the iPod is not connecting.There is defiantly not the lead as we use it for the iPhone and that works please could you help!

What I am saying is ..........
The iPhone HAS to be active making calls on the UK carrier network for the carrier to identify as "theirs" and therefore eligible for the Carrier to unlock
The way to achieve this is to use a PAYG sim making and receiving calls to establish a customer relationship with the Carrier and then follow the Carrier's process to unlock
With a PAYG it usually means adding a specified (by the carrier ) amount usually £15 /£20 depending on the carrier
This is how O2 function and according to Gemma this is how Vodafone work

My i pod shows my charger and itunes so i download i tunes. But itunes said i had to do my passcode but the charger and itunes symbol wont go away long enough for me to enter my passcode! what do i do?

My ipod shows my charger and itunes, so i download itunes. But then itunes says i musst enter my passcode on my i pod but the charger and itunes symbols wont go away long enough for me to enter my passcode. what should i do?

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

HT3964 Installed a new battery for a Macbook 2,1 New battery not charging. Battery symbol shows (Not charging) and replace battery. Green LED on magsafe connection. Disconnection results in an instant shutdown.

I have just installed a new Battery after the old one showed (Not Charging) and when you clicked on this icon the dropdown"condition replace now". Problem now is the computer still shows the same message in the top bar (Not Charging) and the dropdown also shows "condition relace now". the magsafe show the greem LED i.e not charging, but providing power. If you disconnect the magsafe the computer powers off instantly confirming we have power. I have carried out resetting the SMC controller and still no change. Tested the standby voltage on the magsafe pins etc, all in spec. What should I do now, as I don't want to keep spending more and more. Bellow is the info from the system profiler.

It's in recovery mode. Plug it into your computer running iTunes and restore it.

If my iPhone 4 is not holding charge and I have the apple replacement plain can I got to the store to get another, If my iPhone 4 is not holding charge and I have the apple replacement plain can I got to the store to get another

If they determine that your iphone is defective, then they will replace it.
Have you tried basics? restart, reset, restore.

I purchased tv shows from iTunes and keep getting a download error tap to retry.

I purchased tv shows from iTunes and keep getting a download error tap to retry. Why don't the shows download? What can I do?

Hello there Julfos,
I recommend this part of the article named iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1725.
If you cannot complete the download on your device, you can finish the download in iTunes on your computer and then sync it to your device. For instructions, see the following articles:
iTunes Store: Where can I download and sync my purchases?
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
Additional Information
If your purchase does not resume downloading after following the steps in this article, you can also try the following steps to troubleshoot the download issue.
Restart your computer or device.
Check for updates for your Mac or PC and install any software updates. Also, check for and install updates for any security software you may have (anti-virus, anti-malware, firewall, and so on).
If using Wi-Fi for Internet access, try using a different Wi-Fi network when downloading. If you are connecting to a home network, try restarting your Wi-Fi router. Also, check for and install any firmware updates for your Wi-Fi router. (Refer the manufacturer's website for your router to get information on updating its firmware).
If that does not resolve the issue then I recommend quitting all the apps running with this article, and trying again.
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Perhaps even forgetting your home network and rejoining it.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you are connected. Then tap > and Forget this Network. Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network again.
Or resetting your network settings.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings including: previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords, recently used Bluetooth accessories, VPN and APN settings.
