HT201412 I dropped my iphone 4. It showed a 'sim problem' window and now has no service.

my iphone 4 slipped off a table and than later had a window that said 'sim problem' and now has no service.

Hey 35Cotton,
I understand that you're encountering SIM/service issues on your iPhone. I would run through these troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue:
Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
Toggle Airplane mode On and Off.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
Check for a carrier settings update. Tap Settings > General > About. If an update is available, a prompt will appear.
Remove the SIM Card and verify that it is a valid, carrier-manufactured SIM. Also verify that it is not damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.
Restore the iPhone.
If you still are unable to resolve this issue, contact Apple support for further assistance.

I dropped my iPhone 5 outside in the rain all night and now it only shows the apple logo on my phone , any idea what my best options would be?

PPlease help me I don't know what my next step should be without having to break the bank

You should never try to turn on or charge a wet iPhone until it has dried for a week or so.
If you have tried to turn it on or charge it, then the damage is done.
You can buy an out of warranty replacement. I believe it is $249-ish in the U.S

Dropped my iphone 4 from about 1 1/2 feet and now it won't turn on. I have tried holding the home and sleep button for 20 seconds but still nothing happened. Please Help!

I have tried holding the home and sleep button for 20 seconds but still nothing happened.I have had this phone for 1 year and 10 months and I have never had any problems like this. Please Help!

it likely need repair
first you can try to connect it to AC though and try the home + powerbutton again

I dropped my iphone 4s about half a meter onto carpet and now it wont turn on/charge/register on my laptop or basically do anything. any ideas on how to fix it?

Seek service at your local Genius Bar (Apple Retail Store) if possible. There are options available for out of warranty replacements.

I have imported all photos and videos from my iPhone 5S into Aperture ver.3.4.5 and now cannot find them. I thought I could open a panel showing all imports and merely list them chronologically, but I don't see how to do this.

I have imported all photos and videos from my iPhone 5S into Aperture ver.3.4.5 and now cannot find them. I thought I could open a panel showing all imports and merely list them chronologically, but I don't see how to do this. There are over 1800 photos and about 100 videos, any help to locate where they've gone would be appreciated.

Try to search with a Smart Album for photos and videos taken with an iPhone:
File > New > Smart Album:
Add an EXIF rule fro the "Add Rule" drop down menu: EXIF
and set it to "Camera Model includes iPhone".
Set the scope of the search to "Library"
If there are any iPhone images or videos in your library at all, this search should find them. Then ctrl-click any of the items and select "Show in Project" from the contextual menu.
Generally, Aperture should be showing your last import in the "Last Import" smart album in the "recent" section". And the "projects" view can be sorted by date, so you should see your recent imports.
You may want to check all search fields, if searches are active.

You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

Probably too late to do anything but replace the device at this point.
Once electronics get wet, the best thing to do is turn it off and put it in silica gels packs or uncooked rice for a minimum of 72hrs. Only then should the user attempt to power the device on.

When it stopped and said error, what was the error? You are saying that you disconnected the phone from the computer and all you see is the USB showing on the phone? Then you need to reconnect to the computer and restore the phone.

On your iPhone go to Settings > Store.
Select the Apple ID at the bottom.
Select Sign Out at the menu selection provided.
Follow this by signing in with your new Apple ID/iTunes store account.
All apps - all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account that was used to download the apps. In order to install an app update for the apps downloaded with your previous Apple ID/iTunes account, you will need to use that account and password.

There is no user name needed to "enter" or use iPhones...
Assuming you mean your iTunes Store account ID:
Settings > Store > tap ID > sign out > sign in with new ID

Sounds like the movie didn't finish downloading before the Wi-Fi signal dropping ...
Try re downloading. You won't be charged again.

I'm happy to say that I solved the problem, and for the community (for the "next generation" that will search a solution for this problem) - I will publish the solution for this problem : I defined as new iphone, and then the restore showed up!
All wishes everyone...
