Help!! it was working a minute ago now its a blank screen
i have an iphone 3GS and everything was just working great. Went to go get some info from it and it won't respond. Its just a blank screen. The battery is fully charged and I have it now plugged into the computer... and still nothing... help
First, remove the case to check for it covering the proximity sensor that turns off the display when you hold it to your ear.
If that doesn't fix it hold HOME and SLEEP until the Apple logo appears. Disconnect from the computer first.

My ipod touch 5g was working 5 minutes ago now I can't turn it on!
I have no idea if its the actual ipod itself or just the screen but when I press the button at the top, literally nothing happens and it was working about 5 minutes ago!
My home button has been broken for a while so I cannot do a reset otherwise I would, its at least 2 years old this ipod, but it's done me well until now.
I am a university student and I don't live anywhere near an apple store so I have no idea what to do.
Can anyone give me any advice? I have tried putting it on charge and literally nothing is happening :/
Thanks for reading!Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

phone was working three minutes ago, not it is completely black. When I put the charger on it, it does nothing. I can't see anything. Ive tried to hit the on off button, nothing, holding down the button on the bottom does nothing. Help please
First you can try to force reboot your phone. To do this:
1. Hold down the sleep/wake button and home button simultaneously.
2. Let go when the Apple logo appears and the iPhone is booting up.
If that doesn't work, you might need to hook the phone up to your computer and do a full restore through iTunes. -
My podcast was working in itunes, but now its gone.
my podcast was working in itunes, but now its gone. RSS feed validators say its fine, but itunes gives bad 303 error. http://www.pointsofinterestpodcast.com/?feed=rss2 I have no idea what to do
I'm afraid you have dug yourself into a pit. Your feed - which appears to be OK - does however include this line:
<itunes:new-feed-url>http://www.pointsofinterestpodcast.com/feed</itunes:new-feed-url>
This redirects the iTunes Store and the iTunes application to that URK: however it's a web page, and cannot be read by iTunes. Hence it's not now possible to subscribe to your feed, and as the Store cannot read it it's been removed.
As the podcast has been removed you will have to submit it again as a new podcast. You will have to change the title slightly, or you will be told that it's already been submitted (even though it's been removed - this is a long-standing bug in the automated part of the submissions process). Obviously, take that tag out of the feed first. -
I clicked on something by mistake and now have a white blank screen.
Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).
If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.
You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-to-use-full-screen
If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key to make the menu bar appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars" -
So i woke up, was texting on my phone that works perfectly or so i thought.. Come back from getting something to eat and the phone won't turn on.. I've used 2 different charges to try to charge it, plugging it into my computer and 2 different wall chargers. When i Plug the phone into the computer it recognizes a phone was plugged in.. if anyone can help please !!!!!
Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds...
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Phone On...
If that does not help... See Here:

My iphone randomly turned off out of nowhere. I was getting dressed, my phone was working one minute then literally the next it syopped now it wont charge i cant turn it on however the phone is on cause i called it and it rang. What to do? help please. I tried putting it in DFU mode but my lock button doesnt work and my phone wont charge so i cant connect to itunes
There is no reason to put it in DFU mode, a reset should work. Although, without a working power button it is not possible to reset the device.
Sounds like it is time to replace the damaged device. -
Why has my ipad mini stopped connecting with my iPhone 4S? I used to use it to download books, or transfer emails to my ipad mini. It was fine 3 days ago, now I get a message saying " cannot join with iPhone" Any help greatly appreciated.
You can try resetting your iPad and iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists. -

I have CS5 and LR5. they will not talk anymore. Everything was working 5 days ago. I can no longer access CS5 from LR5 edit, then drop it back into LR5. Need support
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop ("CS5" won't do for instance; we would need CS5 vers 12.0.2 or whatever) and of Bridge, machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, video card specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.
A screen shot could be very helpful too.

i disconnected my iphone 4 while it was updating and now its frozen, the screen is showing a apple logo and a loading bar which has been for 9hrs now. please help
It's not uncommon for it to not work the first time and sometimes, you have to try it a few times. Turn off your antivirus software and your firewall while you are trying to restore the iPad. Enable them again after you restore.
If that still won't work, post back with detailed information as to what exactly does happen as you go through the process. -
Why won't Firefox automatically show new Hotmail emails or easily down load attachments when it was working a week ago?
Hotmail has been having a few hiccups lately I'm afraid.
If you don't see any emails when you log in, or nothing appears after some time, click in the middle of the grey bar on the left which has the word "'''Inbox'''" in it. This usually causes them to magically appear for some strange reason.
I've read on on a few blogs that Microsoft is working on the problem, but don't hold your breath.<br><br>
