That will take you to app open screen
Select app that will take you to it's location
Select it
Go back to app open screen and select update

I have an Iphone 4s that I installed the face button app. After trying to use the first time, my phone locked and stopped working. Does anyone knows how to fix that problem or how to reset this phone?

I have an Iphone 4S that i installed the face button app. After trying to use it, my phone locked and I cannot get it to work anymore. does anyone knows how to reset this phone and get it working again?

A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.

ICloud password lost , how to reset the phone (4S)

I gifted my sister IPHONE 4S before her Pregnancy ., after her Pregnancy she came to me that she forgot her details about her icloud account on her phone .., how to reset the phone now ?

With iOS 7 and activation you will need the id and password. If she can't remember her password then she could try to get it reset via http://iforgot.apple.com
If she can't get it reset via that site then she could try contacting Support and see if they can reset the password for her : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

How can I erase the data on my 2009 macbook pro that won't turn on because of a faulty motherboard? Do I just remove the hard drive, install it in a working mac, and erase it that way?

You put the internal drive in an enclosure. If you choose to keep the drive, you don't need to erase it.

It is not possible. You have hit Activation Lock, an anti theft measure. The last owner is the only one who can unlock it with their Apple ID. Tell them to go here

You said "reset," so Meg assumed that's what you did. But "reset" is not a button; to reset the phone you must hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears. You may have to hold for up to 30 seconds, and if the battery was completely drained, you will have to restore iOS using iTunes on your computer.

So I have a MacBook Pro 2013. That won't turn on and won't charge.

So I have a MacBook Pro 2013. That won't turn on and won't charge. When the charger is plugged in the light remains green as if it is fully charge. Before it died the laptop still recognized the charger but wouldn't charge. And now won't turn on.

If you've a 2013 model, depending on when you purchased the machine, I would suppose that you're still under warranty or at least purchased AppleCare? Regardless, I would take the kit to your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them diagnose the computer (and, if you're still under warranty, fix the computer) and, if necessary, give you an estimate for repair.
There are all sorts of things that could be wrong - a faulty adapter, bad cabling, even the entire electrical circuitry may have gone bad.
You won't know unless you had an Apple tech look it over.
Good luck,

How to unlock a phone that is locked to a user account after reset?

I’m writing with an inquiry about the new OS7 upgrades and user account new security.
We began to receive iPhones 4, 4s and 5 back from our former employees and no longer able to sign back into the phones after a reset.
I believe that in order to use any iPhone you needed an existing or new account.
With the older software we were able to reset a phone through iTunes to default then reassign it to another employee.
Since the changes to OS7 after a reset it won’t let us sign in with a any other account expect for the old one that was authorized for a former employee.
I understand the security concern but in business field this solution does not work since these good phones became no longer usable.
Please provide a solution on how to bypass the startup screen by creating a new user profile when a phone is reset to factory and connected to wifi or iTunes.
I believe that the sign in to iTunes should not be mandatory, only for those who like to keep their phone secured as an extra alternative to the password.
Secondly, older types of iPhones had defective power button I’m still seeking answer as to why there is no recall for this repair?
Hope to hear back from you soon.

That's called activation lock. You can not bypass it. IF you can provide Apple with proof of ownership for the phones, they may be able to help you.
Going forward, the best approach is strong policies regarding the return of company owned equipment in working order. Activation locked does not constitute "in working order".
As to your second question, no one here can address that. This is a user forum. Apple does not participate here.

I am trying to get my photos out of my phone but I have no idea how to do that, since I'm trying to reset my phone that's why.

HT4061 How do I restore my iphone 4? Whilst updating to new software my computer crashed. This has left me with a phone that won't respond at all and itunes says 'restore your phone'. I can't press anything without getting a picture of a usb. not useful.

My computer crashed while updating my iphone 4.
My phone now will not respond other than a USB symbol to itunes.
When I plug into itunes it says 'reset your phone'.
I've tried holding the on/off and home button together, nothing.
On another note, it isn't possible to schedule into a shop in London until a week today. There is something seriously wrong with this picture.
Any help would be awesome.
Thanks

1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
