HT1349 Iphone 4s stopped working (no txts) and now will not restore
Brand new iphone 4s stopped functioning (another one bought at the same time now has the same issues) wouln't call or send texts. Followed backup adn restpre now won't restore - get error msg - an unknown error has occured(1).
Have tried repairing then removing and reinstalling itunes, disabling antivirus etc. It still keeps failing two thirds of the way thru restoring.
Help!
Have now spent an hour on the phone with very helpful Apple Support people who agree it is a hardware problem which cannot be resolved and phone will be replaced. Thanks for suggestions anyway!

My iphone 4 ran out of battery and now will not charge
Yesterday my iphone was acting unusual randomly alerting me with a message saying something like the accessory you have plugged into your iphone is not compatable with this device(while my iphone was not plugged into anything at all). it had done this several times during the day untill had turned it off and then back on. For the rest of the day no alerts had popped up. Later that night my iphone ran completely out of battery dead and now will not charge or turn on, while on the charger or not. I have not updated the phone since i got it. I just tried plugging it into my computer and my computer (PC)recognized it but said that the device could not be installed. Is there anything i can do?
You most likely have dirt, moisture or a bent pin in the dock connector on the phone. Inspect it with a magnifying glass, and if it's dirt do your best to clean it thoroughly. A dry toothbrush frequently will fix it.
If that doesn't resolve the problem the phone needs to be repaired. -
as mentioned in the subject. i was enjoying sending msgs using iMessage using 3G internet connection but since yesterday my iMessage stopped working and now its only working when i connect my iPhone to Wifi !!!
without WiFi it show my Message Not Delivered in Red !!
and this issue not only with me.. even with my freind. so please help to find a solutionI know why. It happened to me before. Try typing random stuff, eg aaasjddjfndirinfekdnkedindor , into the text box, then delete everything using the x-arrow on the keyboard. It should work now. If not, repeat the process again and again. It's because it needs to send the signal to the other recipient(without him really knowing it, this is to check that he can see when you are typing, you know, the "…" bubble), then check that you have 3G at good speed, then enables iMessage. It works for me this way...hope it does for you too (:

My iphone 4 froze then shut down and now will not turn on.
i was opening an app when my phone froze, i held the power button till it turned off. it then took over 2 mins to switch off, it will now not turn on or charge. my laptop does not reconise that it is connected to it. any ideas?
Connect iPhone to Wall Charger and Reset, hold both Home and Power Buttons until the iPhone begins to start. Can take around 20 seconds of holding both buttons.

I'm having problems with Siri on my iPhone 6. It worked briefly yesterday and now its not doing anything. I have turned phone off and on and made sure everything is on in settings. Please help!
Do you have an active data connection (wifi or cellular)? Have you tried resetting the phone by pressing and holding the Home and power buttons until the apple appears (this is different than just turning it off and back on).

Upgraded to OS X 10.9 and Slideshow in iPhoto stopped working (stays on first slide; will not advance)
Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database followed by Option #1 to reapair permissions if #4 doesn't help.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
If still not working log into another user account on your Mac and try a slideshow from there. If it works there then the problem is limited to your account. If it fails there it's system wide and may require a reinstall of iPhoto or the system. -

I have an Iphone 5 on contract with T-mobile/EE. The lock button on my Phone 5 has stopped working completely. It just will not work anymore so I have to rely on the auto-lock . Will apple replace my phone or do I ahve to take it back to T-mobile? It is just short of a year into a 24 month contract.
Yes; If it's under the one year hard ware warrnety and it doesn't have any damage on the device you can get it replaced, contact Apple ASAP

My iphone is stuck in recovery mode and itunes will not recognize my phone. I've tried pretty much every trick i can and i still do not know what to do. Someone please help me
I've done all of these, even trying a different USB port, and still, nothing. This is really confusing. Windows 8.1 said something to do with USB malfunction or something and nothing works. I need to restore my iPhone quickly and nothing has happened. My cable is not genuine Apple product. iTunes makes the noise that it makes when I connect the device, but it doesn't say 'iPhone is in recovery mode' or even say 'iPhone' in the corner. I am really fed up and would really appreciate a response.
Thanks,
Nathan. -
Ever since I got the iphone 5 my phone/icloud calender and contacts will not remain synced with Outlook. I am constantly having to sign in and sign out and unlink and re link to Outlook. this creates multiple categories of contacts and calenders and I have no idea which is syncing with my phone, ipad, outlook. Help. thanks.
Sounds like the Outlook plugin isn't working properly. You could try a couple of things:
Go to Start>Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs, uninstall iCloud, the download and install the iCloud contol panel for Windows again from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455. Then sign back into your iCloud account and check your syncing settings again.
Uninstall iTunes and all of its components as by following this guide exactly: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7, then reinstall iTunes. You must follow this guide exactly or it will not be successful. (Uninstalling iTunes will only remove the application; it will not touch your iTunes library or data.) This will replace the Outlook plugin.
Then try your calendar again and see if it will sync properly now. -
I have an IPhone 3G and it will not restore...
I have an IPhone 3G and it will not restore. Unfortunatley, I have to make it restore because I cannot use it at all. I have tried to restore it a total of 4 times but each time a message comes up saying that an error has occured. I need to restore the IPhone in order to use it in my daily life. Can someone help me?
Welcome to the discussions,
did you try to connect in recovery mode? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
If this does not work, try to delete the iphone software file located in C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates to make iTunes download a new copy when you connect in recovery mode. Maybe the file stored on your PC is damaged.

Thunderbird was acting weird so I upgraded to whatever came up after clicking update. It worked a few times and now will not open. Clicking it produces the timer spiral for a second or two and then it stops not opening program, would like to know how to fix or at the least be able to retrieve emails and dictionary. running win 7
