HT201210 screen is in a zoom mode and will not open with the slider

Hi, my iphone 3gs screen has gone into a zoom mode and will not allow me to switch on with the slider, or decrease the zoom. When first activated the screen is normal for a second, then zooms in and becomes inoperable, if anyone has any ideas, would be much appreciated, cheers John.

Double-tap the screen with three fingers.   Then go to Settings>General>Accessibility>Zoom and turn it off.

  • After attempting to update to ios 7, my iphone is stuck in recovery mode and will not connect to the itunes software server.

    After attempting to update to ios 7, my iphone is stuck in recovery mode and will not connect to the itunes software server.  I have already tried the resetting with power swich and home button and plugging into computer but it says the "iPhone software update server cannot be contacted."  I am locked out of my phone.  Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this issue and get the phone working again.  I will add that I am now trying to restore it on a different computer with a lower version of itunes, but the computer that it initially happened on had the updated itunes and gave me the same result ... nothing.  Thanks for your help in advance.

    Try going to recovery mode as described here.  You may have to try this more than once to succeed.
    Use the original iTunes that the iPhone synced with.

    Let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    If not successful time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • HT201210 iPhone 4 stuck in recovery mode and will not restore.

    My iPhone 4 randomly turned off a few days ago and wouldnt turn back on. I plugged it into iTunes which said it was in recovery mode but will not restore as error 1600 keeps propping up. Someone please help, I have tried lots of ways but none are working.

    Placing your device into recovery (DFU) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
           other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
       2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
           until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

  • Help! My iPad is repeatedly restarting itself and will not open into the main screen.

    Hiya!
    Having a few issues with my iPad 2. Went to charge it as it presented with nil battery but when I went back to check on it an hour later it presented with the apple logo followed by the loading symbol with a blank page. It keeps doing this and I can't seem to reboot it. I have connected it to my Macbook but that doesn't seem to have helped.
    Please someone help me!!

    Try this first. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that that doesn't work, you will probably have to restore the iPad.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
    IF you cannot restore the device that way, you will need to use recovery mode.

  • Firefox goes into work off line mode and will not connect to the internet

    Firefox randomly disconnects from the internet. The work off line option is somehow checked and when un- checked Firefox will still not connect. A re-boot of the computer most often solves the problem. This is new and I have not made any changes recently. Running Fox 3.6.3

    Thank you Moses. I had three add ons that I wasn"t using and after removing them I have not seen the problem again. Thanks again for your help.

  • The apple id connected with the app store for updates and purchases is outdated and will not change with the new apple id entered on my settings. how to change?

    I have changed the apple id on my settings to reflect the current account for all our apple products.
    But this is not changing when I go to the App store to make a purchase or install updates.
    How do I get the app store connection on my IPAD to go to the apple id i am currently using.
    Obviously just changing it on the settings was not enough.

    Again, this only affects you if someone *redownloaded* content with a different ID. In my case, I emailed iTunes Store support, explained the situation, and they reset the counter.  I recommend you try the same
    If you read discussion boards, this is a significant change from a year ago, when Apple told people in the same situation to go f&$# themselves.  Clearly it's dawning on them that this is a stupid policy, and my guess is if people keep complaining they'll change it to something more reasonable.  Remember, it wasn't that long ago you couldn't re-download content at all.
    Apple can't really afford to play hardball on this. Sure, the hardcore fanboys will always say "Thank you sir, may I have another" whatever Apple throws at them,  but the rest of us will just switch to Amazon, which has none of these restrictions.

  • IPhone home screen is zoomed in and will not zoom out. How do I get it back to normal?

    My iPhone 6 home screen is zoomed in and will not return to normal, How do I get it back to normal?

    If that did not work, then try triple-tapping the home button. If that does not work, then double-tap 3 fingers and hold on the screen, dragging to change the zoom level. If you need to move the screen around to be able to access something to get the device unlocked, then use 3 fingers to drag the screen around after trying to change the zoom level.
