My iPod touch is stuck in recovery mode, but when I connect it to my computer to restore it, my computer does not recognize it. It does not appear as a device in my iTunes. What can I do to restore it/make my computer recognize it?
DId it successfully connect to this computer before?
Try:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
or
V
Also try placing the iPod in DFU mode and then try restoring

One headphone does not work or works 50% of the time. What is best way to resolve?

First of all, I'd recomend resetting the iPod. Do this by pressing the 'Menu' and 'Center" buttons for 10 seconds or until the Apple logo appears.
If this doesn't work, then it sounds like a hardware fault.
To identify the issue, if you have one, try plugging the iPod into a speaker through the dock. If this works, then the issue is with the headphone jack. If not then the logic board is dead. If the iPod is less than a year old, then it can be repaired by Apple for free. Just book an appointment for the Genius bar.
If not then, you could see about sending it to an iPod Repair Company, such as my own. A replacement headphone jack would cost £30.00 in the UK, including next day delivery. Other companies you could try would beUKiPodRepairs, but we guarantee to beat any quote that you get.
Hope that this helps,

i bought an iphone 3g but not in a shop and when i turn it on it tells me your iphone could not be activated because the activation server is unavailable what can i do to just have it working legit ?? , please anyone that could help me out
Generally, that means the phone has been jailbroken (hacked). You can try restoring it as new using iTunes. Beyond that, there's really nothing we can advise as jailbroken phones can't be supported on these forums.

I'm having probs backing up iPhone 5 to iCloud - just sits on the backing up screen with message 'estimated time remaining....' But goes no further and doesn't back up - wifi is fine and definitely enough storage spaces. Anyone have any ideas please?
You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.
First check that your device is correctly connected to the wifi/internet (settings > wifi)
If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again.
If this doesn't help, try turning off some items for back up in a pattern to try to establish if your problem is being caused by specific data on your device.
Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

My iphone does not charge except i turn it off
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
Please be more specific about "it wont connect back to the computer" so that appropriate troubleshooting steps can be provided. -
HT4859 My iPhone does not back up with iCloud.
Hi, my iPhone just does not back up with iClouds, even trying manually. Don't know why, tried everithing, it just start the proces and says: "calculating remining time" and stays there forever. Anyone know something about?
I even upgraded the iCloud back up space (was close to the five gb)
Even-thought my iPad works perfectly with iCloud using the same account.
Thanks!Go to Settings>General>Usage and see how much space is available on your phone (listed at the very top). The pop-up might be telling you that you don't have enough space on your phone to perform the backup, not that you don't have enough space in your iCloud acount to store the backup.

Please help... when I am on a call and a second call comes in my iPhone does not beep or make any noise for that matter to notify me of the second call. Why is this happening but most important what can I do to fix this? I have missed several important calls because I have no clue the call is coming in.
Make sure that call waiting is turned on and check with your carrier to ensure that is activated on your account.

iWeb does not show the existing sites (which are in the other computer)
You need iWeb's Domain file from the other computer (your old MacBook Pro) — here's a diagram of where it usually resides:
...But since it "died" and presumably inaccessible, see this Apple doc on How to back up MobileMe data. It says:
“Any websites you have published with iWeb should still be available within iWeb. iWeb stores everything in a Domain file, normally located in the ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder (although it can be moved). If you no longer have this file, you can view your currently published pages and manually recreate them within iWeb, but *there is no way to import published pages back into iWeb*. You can manually back up the Domain file, or use Backup to back it up.”
By the way, here's the normal procedure when your old computer has not died:

TS3992 my iphone does not back up to icloud
My Iphone 4s after I uptadet to IOS 6.01 does not work properly: doesn't t back up to icloud manually or automatically, it takes a lot of time to connect to my wifi, and when it is connected does not recognize the internet ( safari does not work) and when somebody from my Contacts calls it does not recognize the phone # and it says is a unknown person ... what should I do? I am still in a 1 year periodo of warranty. My husband's iphone is in the same way.
I just discovered I'm in the same boat.
I happened to check my iPad 2 and found that the last icloud backup was in mid-July. I completely turned off the device (Home-Power buttons) as is advised in the Apple troubleshoorting guide. Started up again. In Pages, I created a new doc and went to my mac, logged into icloud.com and checked iWork. The new file was there - so my iPad connection to iCloud is okay. Pressed the Back Up Now button in Settings>icloud>Storage & Backup. The progress meter made it a little more than 3/4 of the way through, and with less than one minute go to, the process gave up and the error is the usual "the last backup could not be completed".
I've searched through many past posts on the topic and the only advice I find is to shut down/start up the device and to reset Network settings. I've done the first. Since I'm able to get files to iCloud from Pages, the connection to icloud is okay. But the backup is the problem. Any other ideas before I consider a Network reset (which I assume means losing many settings). Or maybe I go back to backups to iTunes.
I should add that backups work flawlessly on my iPhone. Also have more than 20 GB of free space on iCloud and about 10GB free space on the iPad. -
A new Iphone does not come with SIM? If no... Can I by a SIM in Apple Store?
I've bought a new 5s but I did not receive it yet. I'd like to know if it comes with SIM card or I need to buy it. In case I need to buy, can I buy it in the Apple Store?

That depends on how you bought the phone. A carrier linked phone will come with a sim card. An unlocked phone usually does not have a sim card.
Sim cards can be bought from your Cell carrier's stores. Apple does not sell sim cards. -
