I have a used iphone that has a passcode on it I don't know. I need to reset it but it won't let me connect it to itunes until I turn the passcode off which I can't because I don't know it.

I have an iPod touch that was given to me, so I don't know much about it. This is the first Apple product I've owned. The specs say it's an iOS 6.1.5
(Model# MC540LL/A) The iPod guide mentions Siri, but I can't find it in the Settings. Should I assume Siri isn't available on this model?
Also, can you tell me how old this iPod is, from the model #?it could be a 4th gen or lower, if the camera dosent stick out, then its a 4g,
however, it could be a 5g (the only model to have siri) it might of been disabled, to enable siri, you have to reset your ipod touch, then when it a says, use siri? tap use siri.
also if you mesure the screen and it is 3.5 inches then it is a 4g or lower and does not have siri. but the 4g has voice control and its offline, and siri cant be used offline.
i hope this helps. -
my iPhone 3g has 2 white horizontal lines i don't know where did it came from. I turn it off then on but its still there. the lines spreads everyday. I dont know how to fix it. need some help guys.
If you take a screenshot (Press the home button and Lock button at the same time), does it appear on the screenshot? Zoom in on the screenshot and see if it's still there.
If not, then your display is failing. I would recommend taking it to an Apple Store if you can, if you can't then to an authorised Apple reseller.
If it does appear on the screenshot when you zoom into the spot, then it's a really weird software issue! You might have to backup and restore the device.
Let me know!

I have a used Iphone 4S that I am trying to unlock but don't have the original computer and don't know the password, how can I get by this?
The only thing to do is to follow the information on the support document that you linked from that talks about not syncing with a computer. Read further down. You will have to restore the phone as new. Also, make sure you have the Apple ID and password for the original owner that activated the phone, unless they have already deactivated Find My iPhone.

Help! I just bought a new computer and am trying to get the songs from my iphone to itunes on the computer. My old computer that had all of origional songs on itunes crashed so all I have is my old iphone. How do I get the songs to go into my itunes library. I would like to purchase a new iphone and plan to load the songs on it after I can figure this out? Please Help?
Restore them to the new computer using the bakcup of the old one. If you don't have a backup of the old computer, you can re-download music purchased from the iTunes store. If they were imported from CD's, etc. You will either have to re-rip them or purchase third party software to extract them from the phone. The iPhone is not a backup or data transfer device.

Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.
All of the apps I have found on the App store either do not have the text to speech capability or if they have it they will only read a page at a time or simply read the text you paste into their window. I really do not understand what is so difficult about having this feature as Kindle provides it--though Amazon does not make the feature available on its iPhone 4 app.
Please help.thanks. yes i am aware of the VoiceOver feature but it is NOT the solution to my problem. as you said, it is a solution to a different set of issues. i want the text to speech ability because i there are books i need to read but do not have the time to sit down and read them and have become used to listening to them read to me either by a professional human reader or with the text to speech software on the Kindle.
I think Apple makes the best audio devices but i am really disappointed in this inexplainable shortcoming. if apple can give us siri they ought to be able to design a nice little button that i can push to turn on text to speech while i am in a document, book, magazine or webpage. clearly it is possible as apple has added the "reader" button in safari to have web pages dropped into the reader format.
thanks for your suggestion though, it is what everyone suggests but it does not address the issue. -
I have older version of itunes on Windows Vista, when i check for updates it states it cannot connect to itunes update server even though i am connected to the internet, i have an iphone that has songs in the cloud and i want to add them to my library?
Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

I have a client that uses Windows that has recently told me she can no longer open the PDFs I send her. I can't find this elusive "Always Send Windows-Friendly Attachments" setting that I have read may solve my problem. Can someone get me there?
Dear Dan,
It was from InDesign that I was creating the shared pdfs. I was one of two Mac drivers in a corporate sea of Win users and had to make the change I mentioned in order for the Win users to see my pdfs for review. The difference from what you appear to be doing was that were all on an MS Exchange Server so the files were shared over the company's Exchange Server e-mail system. However, some of these files occasionally went to outside users via regular e-mail and those people had no issues either.
So what I did was tested and worked for years.
You might look at the Adobe forums or Knowledge Base to see if that is a reported issue with newer version of CS. I was on CS2 when I was doing this, and the other Mac driver was on CS3 but had no problems either.
Some Win users I've talked to find a problem opening some pdfs (not mine) in general and found they had to open Reader first and them open the file from Reader's File menu. That most often happened if the client was using an outdated version of Reader. -
What can i do about my iphone that has a blue tint to the screen when i have sunglasses on?
what can i do about my iphone that has a blue tint to the screen when i have sunglasses on?
That sounds like an issue with the sunglasses and possible polarization...there is nothing that you can do to offset that on the iPhone itself.

Is there a way to recover my photos on my iphone that has not been backed up. It has been in rice for 24 hrs.
Thank you !No since thay have not been backed up. Hopefully the phone will work long enough after the 'rice treatment" for you to recover the phone and do a backup. The rice sometimes does not work. Good luck.
