iPhone5, the screen is damaged, never synced to iTunes, locked screen, cannot turn off the device...

No. I would never take an iPhone to anyone other than Apple unless there was no alternative. You can get the display replaced on an iPhone 5 at most Apple stores for $149. If there's more damage, it will cost $229 for a full replacement. Both prices assuming you don't have AppleCare+.
As I said, taking it elsewhere forfeits your ability to ever get it serviced by Apple. Apple does not sell iPhone parts. There are no legitimate sources for iPhone parts. All the parts you will find are either salvaged from damaged phones or counterfeit.
If the phone is at all functional, you may be able to plug it into a computer and extract the photos and videos from the camera roll.

    HI and welcome to Apple Discussions...
    Perhaps you have an app running. Try force quitting.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    If that doesn't make a difference, reset your iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds until you see the Apple logo.
    Make sure your iPad software is up to date. Connect the iPad to your computer. Launch iTunes if it doesn't open automatically. Under the Summary tab click: Check for Update

  • IPAD Mini Freezing up in installation mode as it is installing Update iOS 8.1.3 . I cannot turn off the iPAD Mini .  How do I resolve this problem?

    iPAD Mini purchased for Xmas 2013 is freezing as it tries to complete the installation of the iOS update 8.1.3.  The screen his frozen on the installation mode and I cannot turn off the iPAD Mini.  How do I turn off the iPAD Mini and resolve this problem?

    Try a reset, hold the power button and home button until you see the apple then let go. Also, it is iOS 8.2 that you are trying to install since that is the current version. I had no problems updating my mini today so hopefully yours will go well too.

  • I updated my LG G3 this week and now it SUCKS!  When I'm connected to WIFI, nothing on Facebook works.  The photos and videos won't populate.  I have to turn off the WIFI and only use the mobile data. Not to mention, I really hate the way it looks now.

    I updated my LG G3 this week and now it SUCKS!  When I'm connected to WIFI, nothing on Facebook works.  The photos and videos won't populate.  I have to turn off the WIFI and only use the mobile data. Not to mention, I really hate the way it looks now.   Before I updated my phone, I really liked it, now I don't like my phone at all!  When will this be fixed? I hope it's soon.  I'm thinking of changing providers now.

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Hi beckiewinter!
    I have some information for you that may help you understand your iPhone's Activation Lock more thoroughly:
    iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
    So in order to update your iPhone, you may need to turn off Find My iPhone. This can be done through the iCloud settings, and more information on those settings can be found right here:
    iCloud - iPhone User Guide

  • HP 34401A-When I run the Read Meas.vi, it has error if I do not turn off the data storage

    When I run the Read Meas.vi, it has error if I do not turn off the data storage. The same thing happen when I run the App. Example. vi. Anyone knows how to solve this problem? Thanks alot.

    Hi KL,
    The Read Meas.vi is one of the subvi's in the App. Example.vi, so this problem is most likely the same problem in each case. From the help for Read Meas.vi:
    Data Storage instructs the device to store the data to be sent to either the internal or external buffer. If TRUE (default), the VI stores data in the on mode. If FALSE, the VI does not retain data in the off mode. Use the off mode only with the average min/max operation when you do not need to retrieve data. You cannot configure the meter for external buffering in the off mode.
    So the question is, are you trying to retrieve any data? If so, then as indicated in the above paragraph, you cannot retrieve data and have the data storage turned off. Good luck!
    Logan S.
    Yes, I need to retrieve data. So due to that problem, I cannot really get any data. I am not sure is that problem is due to the USB GPIB or not. But once I click on the click arrow, everying goes fine from initialise, measurment... once it comes to Read measurment, it has error (say somthing like: VISA Wait on Event for RQS.vi->HP34401A Read Meas.vi->Untitled 1) I have no idea like what it shows up.

  • Why I cannot turn off the iPad at first attempt?

    I got my iPad few weeks back (32GB + 3G).
    The only strange thing I encounter so far is may be 4 out of 5 times, when I tried to turn off the iPad, it will jump back to the lock screen again.
    On the second attempt then I can turn off the iPad.
    What could be the problem? should I send in for a replacement?

  • I cannot turn off the shutter sound on my iPhone 5s, Japan model.

    Hi,
    I am not able to turn off the shutter sound on my iPhone 5s.
    Even if i turn on the mute switch and/or turn ringer/alert sounds completely off.
    It seems to be Japan model (ME335J/A).
    Please help.
    Thanks.

    If you have a phone intended for sale in Japan, it's operating correctly. The mute switch does not disable the shutter sound. All phones in Japan, to the best of my knowledge, are hard coded to prevent the sound from being disabled for privacy reasons.

  • I cannot turn off the system update notification for my G2? I have already tried turning it off in Settings (under Applications Manager). What else can I try? Thanks

    Dear All,
    I have tried turning off the system update notifications for my G2 and have not been successful so far. I have already tried turning it off via Settings/Application Manager/All. What else can I try here? Thanks.
    Regards,
    Jeffrey Wong

    Unfortunately that is not possible any longer. My advice is to take the update.  You'll have to at some point or either you'll accidentally accept it.  The HD voice and video works well between compatible phones. And, if you run into a problem, better now than later.

  • I cannot turn off the wireless synchronization on my Blackberry 8300 device. Please help!

    I have tried and tried everything I can think of.  I have read many posts on this topic already and nothing is helping.  Does anyone know how to do this?   I have gone to the address book, then option, but there is nothing that says wireless synchronization.  Even my device, when I searched on it, tells me to do this, but it's not there.   I am wanting to be able to see my address book on my desktop but I cannot do this without turning this off.  Thank you for your help.

    ok, IF you have all your data up-to-date in Outlook, I will recommend deleting your BB Address Database and re-syncing with Outlook. But you must first have Outlook completely up to date. See below:
    (ignore the mention of the calendar below... this just works the same way)
    If you are having errors in your Calendar or Address Book on your BlackBerry, and you wish to delete the entire Calendar (or Address Book) database on your BlackBerry, follow the directions below. Make certain you have a good copy of your Calendar or Contacts elsewhere, as this procedure will complete delete ALL Calendar entries and/or Address Book entries on your BlackBerry.
    1. Open Desktop Manager on your PC.
    2. Open up Backup/Restore > Advanced.
    3. From Advanced you'll see a split pane screen. The left pain is what is going to be backed up from your device and the right is a list of the currently existing databases.
    3. Highlight on the right side your Address Book database (or your Calendar database) and click the arrow in the middle pointing to the left. This will copy the information over and prepare it for back-up.
    4. Once the back-up has completed, hit the Clear button at the bottom to erase and clean out the entire address book database (or Calendar database).
    5. After it's finished, it will ask you if you want to save the back-up you've created, say yes and check the device to make sure the address book (or calendar) has been properly cleared out. Now, resync the necessary contact information and you should be set to go.
    1. If any post helps you please click the below the post(s) that helped you.
    2. Please resolve your thread by marking the post "Solution?" which solved it for you!

  • I "stopped" items from going in the trash. Going on for two days now. Cannot turn off Mac while this is happening. How do I stop it?

    I have a MacBookPro OSX Lion version 10.7.5  I was trashing a lot of pictures. While the trash was working I added some more and got a separate box with all the items listed individually saying "transferring to trash". It was taking a long time so I clicked on the little "x" to stop the transfer. I have messages that say "stopping" for two days now. I cannot turn the computer off as long as this is going on.
    How do I stop this?
    Thank you.

    Hi Vickifromnewyork,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  If your computer will not shut down, you can force it to do so by holding the power button down until the screen goes dark.  Here are the shortcut keys for Lion:
