HT6208 my iphone is disabled and having trouble turning it back on.

I've held the "off/on" button on top and the bottom button at the same time till the Apple logo appears.
And that"s it. Nothing else happens.
Screen still says "disabled".

Hello Rayydogg22,
It sounds like your iPhone may be disabled due to a forgotten passcode. I recommend the following article if you are not able to gain access to the iPhone because of a forgotten passcode:
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

I am physically disabled and having trouble with the sensitivity of the screen on my iPad mini - any suggestions?

I am physically disabled and having trouble selecting apps because of the sensitivity of the screen - any suggestions on what to do?

I would think assistive touch would be exactly what you are looking for. It's engaged using the Accessibility method I described above.
Here's the writeup about assistive touch from the iPad User Guide:
AssistiveTouch AssistiveTouch helps you use iPad if you have difficulty touching the screen or pressing the buttons. You can use a compatible adaptive accessory (such as a joystick) together with AssistiveTouch to control iPad. You can also use AssistiveTouch without an accessory to perform gestures that are difficult for you.
Turn on AssistiveTouch: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch. To set Triple-click Home to turn AssistiveTouch on or off, go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-click Home.
Adjust the tracking speed (with accessory attached): Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch > Touch speed.
Show or hide the AssistiveTouch menu: Click the secondary button on your accessory.
Hide the menu button (with accessory attached): Go to Settings > General > Accessibility >
AssistiveTouch > Always Show Menu.
Perform a swipe or drag that uses 2, 3, 4, or 5 fingers: Tap the menu button, tap Gestures, and then tap the number of digits needed for the gesture. When the corresponding circles appear on the screen, flick or drag in the direction required by the gesture. When you finish, tap the menu button.
Perform a pinch gesture: Tap the menu button, tap Favorites, and then tap Pinch. When the pinch circles appear, touch anywhere on the screen to move the pinch circles, then drag the pinch circles in or out to perform a pinch gesture. When you finish, tap the menu button.
Create your own gesture: Tap the menu button, tap Favorites, and then tap an empty gesture placeholder. Or, go to Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch > Create New Gesture.
Lock or rotate the screen, adjust iPad volume, or simulate shaking iPad: Tap the menu button, then tap Device.
Simulate pressing the Home button: Tap the menu button, then tap Home. Move the menu button: Drag it to any location on the screen.
Exit a menu without performing a gesture: Tap anywhere outside the menu.

My iphone switched off and when I turn it back on it wants to connect to itunes

My iphone switched off and when I turn it back on it wants to connect to itunes
I was taing photo's and battery was half full - I switched it off and when I turned it on it says connect to itunes. I am not near my laptop?! What can I do

That is referred to recovery mode. At this point your only option is to restore to factory & then from a backup if you have one

I have downloaded and installed the new ios7 software on my iphone 4s but im having trouble getting through the activation process i keep getting the message "iphone could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached"? any suggestions?

The activation servers are probably overloaded with everyone trying to update to iOS 7 today. You might need to wait and try again later.

Since downloading the new operating system on my iPhone 4S, I'm having trouble with my phone messaging. I enter a number or input a number from my contacts and send my message. I then receive a error message stating the message can't be sent and it shows a set of "1s" were added in front of the number I entered. Ex: 1 (1) xxx-xxx-xxxx. Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix it?

I realize this. When calling prepaid cus service it only gives you the option to input your #. If you dont the system hangs up on you. When I input my number the system doesnt recognize it and hangs up on me.

My iPhone 4 has been having trouble charging.

My iPhone 4 had been having trouble charging for a while so i switched cords thinking that was the problem. That worked for a while then i kept having to switch cords every few days or it wouldnt work. As of last night my phone wont charge with any cord in any computer or in the wall or my car. I got frustrated so i turned it off hoping to preserve what little battery life i had left. When i turned it back on i noticed it had charged! The charge doesnt last as long as it normally did but it still works. When its plugged into the computer and turned on it doesnt recognise that its plugged into anything and doesnt start syncing or charging but if i go into iTunes it recognises the device is connected and i can manually sync my phone as long as it is on. Do i need to replace the charging port? Does the battery also need replaced? Has anyone else had this happen?

Sounds like the iPhone has a hardware problem with the battery, with the charging port, or both.

Just bought a brand new Airport Extreme and having trouble with it being recognized. I have a Mac version 10.5.8. Is my computer compatible? I have the Airport Express now and it works fine.

Just bought a brand new airport extreme and having trouble with it being recognized. My mac is version 10.5.8. What should I do?

The new AirPort Extreme needs the 6.x version of AirPort Utility, which comes packed in with Lion 10.7.5 or Mountain Lion 10.8.x......or......you can also configure the device using an iPhone or iPad running a recent iOS.
From Apple's Specifications:
Setup and Administration
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later and AirPort Utility 1.3
Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and AirPort Utility 6.3
A few options.....
Borrow another Mac running Lion or Mountain Lion for 10-15 minutes and set it up. The Mac running 10.5.8 will be able to connect to the wireless....but it will not be able to make any changes to the configuration of the Extreme.
Update to Lion or Mountain Lion.....but check first to make sure that your Mac will support the operating system first.
Use....or borrow an iPhone or iPad to set up the Extreme

Go into your router's page and disable password protection and try connecting again.

HT1414 iphone is disabled and the pincode is not working

Hi,
My Iphone is disabled and despite having the correct passcode it has totally locked me out and asking me to connect to I-Tunes, can't do this either because it is asking for my passcode but only showing emergency only calls at thge moment, can anyone help?

Try restoring it on another computer you have synced with. If you can't do this you will have to force it into recovery mode and restore it, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.

HT201365 My iphone is disabled and cannot open it to save my life! Help! I'm using the only passcode I have and cannot get into the phone to disable the Find Iphone. I'm frustrated!

My iphone is disabled and have tried the only passcode I have, to no avail. Cannot turn off the Find Iphone because I can't get into my phone.

So, you're not talking about trying to turn on the iphone using your passcode, but are talking about the phone being disabled from having used Find My iPhone to put it in lost mode - right?

HT201529 I bought my iPhone from Verizon and having their service. Does my iphone has a default SIM PIN?

I bought my iPhone from Verizon and having their service. Does my iphone has a default SIM PIN?

The 4G LTE SIM card in your device contains information about your plan, device and more. You can set a SIM PIN so others won’t be able to access that information if your SIM card is removed from your device.
If you remove your SIM card and insert it another device (e.g., when you upgrade to a new device), you’ll be asked for the SIM card PIN. You can find your SIM card PIN in My Verizon if you’ve forgotten it. Or, if you’ve entered your SIM card PIN unsuccessfully 3 times, you’ll need the PIN Unblocking Key (PUK) to unlock your SIM card again. After using the PUK, you’ll need to create a new PIN for your SIM card if you want to secure it again.
To locate the SIM PIN / PUK numbers for your 4G LTE SIM card:
Navigate to the Overview page in My Verizon.
Click My PIN and Unblocking Key (PUK) under About My Device.
Your default PIN and PUK will be displayed in a pop-up window.
Click Close when you’re finished to return to the My Verizon Overview page.
You’ve successfully located your SIM PIN and PUK.

I forgot my iphone's password and it is disabled now because i tried so many times to open it. Now it's saying "your iphone is disabled and connect to itunes" i connected it to itunes and clicked restore.

I forgot my iphone's password and it is disabled now because i tried so many times to open it. Now it's saying "your iphone is disabled and connect to itunes" i connected it to itunes and clicked restore. How long will it take for my phone to restore? Is it gonna be 24 hours?

It appears like there is maintenance or something affecting the iTunes server today. I recommend giving it a few hours and trying again. It shouldn't take that long to restore but from what I hear, there is definitely something going on with the iTunes server today.

Hello. May I ask: I am using Acrobat 6.0.2, and having trouble formatting a PDF created from multiple (jpeg) files. Each page is formatted to A4 size, portrait. But when I create the PDF, each sheet appears as tiny, in the middle of a huge white page.

Hello. May I ask: I am using Acrobat 6.0.2, and having trouble formatting a PDF created from multiple (jpeg) files. Each page is formatted to A4 size, portrait. But when I create the PDF, each sheet appears as tiny, in the middle of a huge white page. I cannot seem to find any controls to adjust this. Any advice appreciated.

Thanks CtDave, for the further info. Unfortunately, those suggestions are not working, which is strange.
....Until last week, I used to make multi-page PDFs straight from Photoshop: File > Automate > Make PDF. One simply choses the files, orders them, and creates a PDF. (Resolution doesn't matter; 300 DPI is no problem.) However, my new Photoshop CS5 does not have the option in Automate.
What I've done, seeing as Acrobat is letting me down, is use Bridge (new to me) to create the PDF. It worked without a problem, but seems like more work than the old PS method. I will download a newer version of Acrobat to see if that makes any difference.
.....Also, thanks Test Screen Name: I agree with you that jpeg is irrelevant, and that one can make a PDF from Photoshop (Print > Save As - pdf). But that only works for SINGLE PAGE pdf, not multiple pages as far as I can tell.
Kind regards,
Prince Nuada
