Hi - help with iphone 4 / iphoto

Hi - Just upgraded from iphone 3 to 4... iphoto cannot download photos. iphone3 was absolutely fine. Has anyone experienced this problem and know how to fix it please?

Yes. I had just updated itunes and synced everything on the old phone Sunday then had it stolen Thurs. I've restarted computer, turned phone off/on, tried different usb port. My computer sees the phone and the icon on phone shows its plugged in but itunes isnt pulling it up as device and I don't see anywhere to manually add it.

I need help with IPHOne 4s IOS 7.0.4 battery life not improving

Alright, I Ned help with my iPhone 4S battler life, it is horrible, it will drain in about 12 hours. All I do is check my email, text a few people, and check a few apps. When I may school, it is a hundred percent, then I check it during school etc, when I go to bed it is about 20-30% battery life. Need help. Any suggestions? I tried a hard resets and restoring to a new iPhone etc, nothing worked.

I"m not at all sure what is the problem when you are describing your battery as holding its charge for 12 hours???
How long do you want your device to hold its battery charge???
Please see this article for tips on conserving battery charge. But PLEASE if you are looking for a device to hold its charge for LONGER than 12 hours I would suggest an android.

Help with iphone freezing

Does anyone have any advice for an iPhone that is consistently freezing? When this occurs a white flickering bar appears across the top of the phone and the phone becomes unresponsive to touch. This happens randomly but frequently and lasts from a few seconds to a few minutes.

Hello pinkk0407,
After reviewing your post, it sounds as though your device is frequently becoming unresponsive. I have located an article that can help with software issues. Have you attempted to restore the device to factory settings without restoring from a backup? Test the issue on a new installation, and make sure that it works. Then use the same article to restore from your backup to either verify it still works, or isolate the issue to the backup itself.

Nothing anyone can do for you. You have a second hand phone that's been repaired by an unauthorized 3rd party using counterfeit, stolen, or salvaged parts. Apple won't touch it, as you've learned.
Buy a new phone. Preferably, from a legitimate source.

Help with iPhone 4 [Not about antenna,proximity etc.]

Hi, it's not about antenna issue or proximity issue.
Basically my mother fiddled with my iPhone 4 lol!
When she gave it back to me there's a "lock" image beside the battery which I never seen before. WHen I asked her what she did, she said she doesn't know. She's not familiar with iphone
Well my question is, does anybody recognise the "lock" symbol beside the battery? I want to remove it but I don't know how to. I tried looking through the settings but i can't seem to find what is it or where to disable/remove it.
I can't describe it but I have an image of the i4 below. It's not very clear but hopefully you can see it.

That is orientation lock - stops the screen rotating when you turn phone.
To take it off - double click home scroll to left hand end of icon list and touch the icon that looks like a bigger version of the one on screen.

HT204053 help with iphone and downloading apps

I have set up an apple ID. but when I try to download an app from my iphone it just says that my account has not yet been used in the itunes store and wont let me go any further. can you help?

Raghu do you have access to high speed Internet access at all? If so then you can download the installation files by following the directions listed at http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-direct-download-links.html. Please make sure to complete the Very Important Instructions prior to clicking on the download link.
If you do not have regular access to high speed Internet access then I would recommend that you purchase and continue to use Creative Suite 6. While it is possible to request DVDa from our support team high speed Internet access is a system requirement. Without regular access you will face difficulty downloading and applying updates and new versions of the software as they are made available.
If you wish to request a DVD with the installation files from our support team you can contact them at http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6.
If you would prefer to cancel your membership and proceed with Creative Suite 6 then please see http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/cs6._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software_sl_c reativesuite6.html?start=10.

Help with iphone update to 7.0.4 - wont restore or leave the connect to itunes screen

Hello,
I am currently overseas in Thailand and decided to try to update my iso from 6 to 7. Initially I went through settings>software update with a strong connection to wifi - it downloaded on my phone but then instead of updating came with the screen connect to itunes (I am thinking because there wasnt enough space on my iphone?). I have now connected it to a computer with the most updated version of itunes.
The screen on itunes looks like this:
IPhone Recovery Mode
Your iphone software is up to date, iTunes will automatically look for an update again on the 24/2/2014.
The two buttons below say "check for update (grey)" and "restore iphone (can click)" - I have clicked restore iphone and it proceeded to download iphone software update (1.12GB) - once downloaded nothing changes, i cannot apply the download to my iphone and still my iphone has the connect to itunes screen - I have done this twice and nothing has changed.
I would really appreciate any help or advice on what is happening, and why it cant restore my iphone -
Apple tech geeks encouraged to respond!!! please!!! I really need to have my iphone working again.
Thankyou in advance
Elyssa
At all stages I have tried holding the circle button and top button to reset iphone but nothing changes!

Put the iPhone in DFU mode, (Google how to put iPhone in DFU mode).
Shift+Restore if using PC, Option+Restore for Mac, point to already downloaded firmware. You may have to un-hide folders to see the .IPSW file

Help with iPhone 3GS (not restoring, seems to be in loop)

Good morning!
My phone has not warranty and before taking the next step of having to replace it I would like to read your suggestions or possible solutions for the problems I'm experiencing with my iPhone:
I have an iPhone 3GS that fell into a cup of coffee. It didn't submerge completely and I was able to open it and dry it very quickly. When I opened it only the dock connection was wet (nothing on the battery or the motherboard). Either way I made sure to check every connection and made sure no coffee drops were left on the inside of the device.
Here are the issues I've encountered since then:
1. Afterwards I check the phone by plugin it into the wall charger. I turned on, screen looked OK and I was even prompted with the "Enter passcode" screen. I entered the password and immediately the screen went black and reset to the Apple logo. So long as I had the phone charging through the wall charger the Apple logo will constantly appear. No longer the password screen will show up and the phone seemed to be in a loop that started and ended with the blinking Apple logo. Once unplugged from the wall the iPhone will turn off and make no sound or show any signs of turning on again.
2. When connecting to the computer on the first attempt the iPhone will enter recovery mode (showing the connector and iTunes logo) and be recognized by both the computer and iTunes. iTunes will then prompt me to do a restore of the phone. I will follow the steps and "Restore and update" my iPhone. After "extracting the software" and "Verifying with Apple" to start the installation iTunes will prompt me with an error (I've repeated this step several times so there are several different errors I've encountered. Some of the errors include: 20, 21, 3194, 1600, 2001, 2003). After receiving the error iTunes will eject and no longer recognize the device. The iPhone (still connected to the computer) will no longer show the "Recovery Mode" logos and will start working in a loop (blinking Apple logo that appears to turn on and off as in a loop). The computer (device manager) will not recognize the iPhone either (no USB or ports showing the iPhone is still connected).
My iPhone is not unlocked or jailbroken. Before the incident with the coffee I managed to synchronize and update its firmware as indicated by iTunes. The latest update for my iPhone was 5.0.1. firmware. My intent is not to unlock or jailbrake the device, just to make it work again.
Here are some things I've tried since:
1. Exiting recovery mode via iReb, Tinyumbrella
2. Entering DFU mode via iReb, Sn0wbreeze,
3. Shift + Restore and using firmwares from 3.0 to 5.0 to downgrade or upgrade my iPhone.
4. Add new hosts to my Host file
5. Try sn0wbreeze and use IPSW to see if it is recognized by iTunes (iTunes recognizes the iPhone but then at the very last minute shows error 20, 21, 3194 or 1600.
6. Save SHSH files and use Tinyumbrella to uploaded them to my iPhone.
I would really appreciate if someone can help me on this. I might be doing something wrong or maybe not even considering the right steps to solve this issue. I don't know if there are missing drivers that are preventing the device from communicating with iTunes properly. Of some tool that can be used to correct this problem. It may or may not be fixable but I think it is worth the try.
Thanks very much.

I have the exact same problem as you (minus the coffee incident) where the phone just turned off. Tried everything you have too and now the above link is showing a 404 page... Can you help me out?

Help with iphone 5 in bmw vechile

Hi Can anyone help me please.
I have a BMW X5
I have an iphone 5 which worked perfectly in my car until i did the update.
Once i did theupdate my car says "No entrie" ( Contacts, Dialled numbers, Received calls etc)
I have tried removing it and reinstalling it but I still end up with the same thing.
My daughter has the same phone with the update and when i try and pair hers it works perfectly.
I have checked the settings on both phones and they appear to be the same.
Can any one please offer any assistance.
I have been to BMW and they can not fix it either as they said it is a phone issue.
Thanks

BMW will likely put out an update to support the newest OS. Remember, its up to third parties to keep up to date with Apples OS's. It's not Apples job to make sure their OS works with all previous accessories!

Need help with importing into iPhoto.

I have a bit of an annoying problem when it comes to importing pictures into iPhoto (5.0.4). When I plug my camera into my computer, iPhoto launches and presents me with the import pictures option. However, it's not much of an option, as I can only choose to import all my pictures on the camera! More often than not, I only want to import some of the pictures, and rename them as well (instead of just "Image_0001.jpg", "Image_0002.jpg", etc.) To do this, I go through some really annoying steps:
1.) Plug in camera and start the Picture import app (not iPhoto).
2.) Choose what pictures I wish to import, and import.
3.) Start up Automator.
4.) Tell Automator to get the selected pictures of the ones I have imported, rename them (eg. "Iceland 1", "Iceland 2", etc.), import to iPhoto and finally delete the source pictures.
5.) Repeat with the other pictures (eg. "Sweden 1", "Sweden 2", etc.).
Done!
Now, my question is... is there an easier way? This method I just described is long, annoying and time consuming! So, is there a way to...
1.) Only import some pictures from my camera (not all), from within iPhoto?
2.) Is there any way to change the name of the actual file (not just the title of the picture in iPhoto) from within iPhoto?
3.) Does iPhoto have to copy all my pictures to a specific folder on my hard drive which I can't change?
4.) (Not relating to iPhoto...) Is there any way of changing the names of a number of files from within the Finder to sequential file names (eg. "File 1", "File 2", "File 3", etc.) without the use of Automator?
Thanks for any help. It's very much appreciated.

Help with importing photos - IPhoto assigning file names that already exist

When I import photos from my canon powershot camera, IPhoto has begun assigning file names that are the same as filenames that already exist on photos imported previously. It appears it is deleting those older files (when I go look in my photo library, the older one with the same name is now gone).
I don't know how to name photos as they are imported as it seems to be done automatically and I'm afraid to import more photos and loose my old pics. Can't find anything on the internet when I search on this question - can anyone help?

Thanks so much for your quick reply, TD.
What happens when I plug in my camera is that Iphoto opens, asks me if I want to import photos (and if I want to delete originals), and I click okay or whatever and they are imported. I name the roll/folder, and I photo puts them in the library in that folder in that year.
It makes sense that the camera is numbering them. I think that the ones it is using the same numbers for (ie - IMG0080.jpg) are the numbers on older photos that were assigned by a different camera that we used to have.
So I guess the canon isn't searching on all photo names that have been used, just the ones that it has used in the past.
Unfortunately, when the new photo is named with the same name as an old one, that old one is literally deleted - at least as far as I can tell - and when I go look for it in my photo library, it is no longer there.
I might try to see if there are any help forums for the canon powershot and see what I might learn there.
THanks so much for your help!

Help with iphone 3gs backlight

My Iphone 3gs backlight just stopped working. I can still see that everything is still working but the backlight is just dead. I tried resetting it and recharging it but the backlight still does not come back when I turn the phone back on or touch the screen. Any help would be appreciated.

If no change after restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup and especially after restoring with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup, more than likely your iPhone has a hardware problem.

Need Help with Iphone 5

Hi
I recently bought the new I phone 5 unlocked and logged in with my friends apple Id to start the phone.Somehow when I was activating the phone,I chose one of my friend's number and now the iphone is having a verizon connection and also shows a number under contacts as "my number ********** ".
I have tried everything to remove the number but it won't go away.I think the number was associated to my friends apple Id and now this Verizon number has got a hold on my brand new phone.There is no sim in the phone right now.
I have reset the phone to factory settings a couple of times but the connection is still there.I would try to get a new sim and see if that can help but I was also concerned if my activity on facetime/i message is visible to my friend or anyone who can log in with my friend's apple ID.
Please help,Using the iphone for the first time and confused!!!
Thank you
Tarun

10.7 is Lion.
Mountain Lion is 10.8.
You can likely get that if you like from the Mac App Store
If you need 10.7, then you can call the Apple Store 800 number.

The iPhone includes a one year warranty.
If you are in a country where Apple provides direct support and has an Apple store, you can contact Apple or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.
If you live an a country where Apple doesn't provide direct support - support for the iPhone is handled by the official carrier for the iPhone, contact your carrier.
