"If VoiceOver is on and the screen is black, but you can still use the device by pressing volume up and volume down, you may have screen curtain on. Try triple-tapping using three fingers on the device display to turn off screen curtain. Or connect the device to iTunes"

My current project in the Events Library has gone into list mode. ie a single clip on the left one above another, so showing only about 7 clips. How can I get it back into normal horizontal mode?
That's about what it's supposed to look.
How do You want it to look ?
a. You can change places by using this
b. May be You changed this top right symbol of an hard disk ?
c. or changed the number of frames to be viewed ?
d. OR - it can (at least for me) be so that You think of how it looks in iPhoto. (To me a very common mistake)

Since firefox updated my browser is really big, even my desktop, I can't get everything to fit on my monitor and I don't know how to get the font/size smaller. I tried going to the desktop and hitting smaller font but it says that it is at "normal?.
Double tap your screen with three fingers, then zoom out. Go to Settings/General /Accessability and disable the zoom feature.

My phone has gone haywire. I have to double tap all the time. There is a voice talking to me. I cannot slide between screens. How do i get it back to normal.
Do this, copied from page 143, iphone_user_guide 5.1 Accessibility features:
Turn VoiceOver on or off: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver. You can also set Triple-click Home to turn VoiceOver on or off. See “Triple-click Home” on page 153.
You can turn individual accessibility features on or off in Accessibility settings on iPhone. You can also turn some features on or off in iTunes when iPhone is connected to your computer.
Turn on accessibility features using iPhone: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility.
Turn on accessibility features using iTunes: Connect iPhone to your computer and select iPhone in the iTunes device list. Click Summary, then click Configure Universal Access at the bottom of the Summary screen.

I have iOS7 on my iPhone4. I turned on the Voice Over option and now my phone is not working at all. At first it was freezing and not accepting any commands. Now all I have is a blank sceen. I can't get back into it. Any ideas what happened here?

My iPhone was stolen in Asia and it's now in Germany. How do I get it back? All I have left is a serial number, apple ID and password, plus a police report. What do I do now? I really want my phone back. Can someone help me? Thank you, Bobi
No one here can help you, nor can Apple or any carrier. If you know the location, contact the local police where it is located.

I was in the middle of updating to 7.0.3 and Itunes stopped working. Now my phone is stuck in limbo (apple logo with status bar under) My power button doesnt work (of course) How do I get it back to normal?
I have same issue. I click on the home button and Wake/sleep at the same time for 30 seconds or more and then the phone entered in Recovery mode. It is erasing my content now and installing the update. Let´s see how this ends. I have iCloud, iTunes match, and backups from previos versions, hope I can restore all my content.
Otherwise I´ll go to the Genius Bar to do a checkup.
Good luck!
It did not work the first time... The iPhone4 kept in limbo. Then I did disconnect as suggested above and tried again to enter in Recovery mode. This second time it works. And after restoring the iPhone4 with 7.0.3, it asked me if I want to recover from backup. I did recover from my latest back up and now it is syncing the content. -
My inbox used to show the sender for each message and now it does not...how do I get it back to where it was?

my ipod 4g was working fine until i locked the screen but when i tried to turn it back on the screen stays black and its been 3 days. Does anyone know how i could fix this?
- Charge the iPod for half an hour. Then reset the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- if still not working, connect to your computer. If iTunes sees the iPod, restore the iPod.
- If still problem, place the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore the iPod. For recovery mod see:

Hi All,
I did the last update, there was a 'catastrophic failure' i had to restore my iPhone and now have lost all my apps, how do i get them back? Any ideas?

ClareAll of your apps should be in iTunes on the computer, simply sync them back.
If they are not, go into the purchase history and download them again. -
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.

My screen now has everything on it huge. Therefore I can not use the phone to answer calls, make calls, etc How do I get it back to normal size?
Hi pizzamanvin,
Sounds like you have Zoom on. Double tap three fingers on the screen to put it back to normal size. You can turn off Zoom altogether by going to Settings>General>Accessibility, and turn off Zoom.
Cheers,

Please see the bold. If you're out of icloud storage, then you won't be able to backup to icloud unless you purchase more storage, but yet you said you backup to icloud.
If you really did backup to icloud no data would be loss - sounds to me that it didn't backup since you had no more free icloud storage space.
