I am traveling abroad. In France my phone was working properly. Now I'm in England and my battery is being drained very quickly. What should be done?

Hello, , I
I live in the USA, but have traveling in France and am now in England. My phone worked fine. When I arrived here I set my phone to the WiFi network where I'm staying. I have data roaming turned off. When I'm not at my place of residence, I have WiFi turned off, but my phone is constantly searcing for my carrier. I think this is what is drainging my phone. In the settings area, in the Carrier, it show to connect automatically and the and shows right below that , that it is searching constantly even though WiFi is turned off.
Also, my settings icon has disappeared from the main screen of my iphone 4. How do I get it back. My Google icon has also disappeared.
Thank you, Nancy

The searching is not wi-fi related - it is searching for a cell network. You need to disable 3G and Cellular data uder Settings, General, Network.
To find your settings and google icons, swipe the screen left to reveal other screens - they're there somewhere

The games might be free but I think you've clicked In-App purchase which cost money. You are warned before you accept the In-App purchase. You not that young and you can read so take action if you must. It's your own fault and all purchases are final. Good luck.

I have a problem, when I charge my phone it takes a long time but then when I take it off it drains really quickly what do I do?

I Have a problem my battery charge goes down really quickly

Check the battery usage is the Settings app to determine what is using up your battery. Then take steps to reduce the usage.
Settings > General > Usage > Battery Usage
Wait a few seconds for the battery usage data to appear.

HT201263 my phone just shut off and will not come back on no matter what I do. It was working fine then just went compeltely dark and is unresponsive. Help!!

My phone was working fine, then just went completely blank, and now is totally unresponsive

Plug it in to mains power for at least 15 minutes. If it doesn't automatically come on, try a Reset... press the home and sleep/lock buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

Can i use a 2nd iphone if i install itunes on another user account.when i tried to create a second library i messed up both phones, the second one now has all my contacts and when it sends txts it either says its my other phone or email address

can i use a 2nd iphone if i install itunes on another user account.when i tried to create a second library i messed up both phones, the second one now has all my contacts and when it sends txts it either says its my other phone or email address. i can cope with the first phone and getting it back on itunes but dont want to syn the 2nd phone until i know it is independant of the other one. Does it matter that both phones use the same itunes store account?

Deleting the account on your phone only removes if from your phone. The account and it's data remain intact and doing so will not effect your daughter's phone.
To do this, first go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn any synced data (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off, and when prompted, choose to keep the data on the phone. When finished, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. Then set up a new iCloud account with a different Apple ID and turn any data you want to sync with iCloud (contact, calendars, etc.) back to On. This will upload your data to your new iCloud account.

My phone was stolen, but I had no data left and so can't locate it till the person who has it tries to use the internet. I backed up all my photos on iCloud, and want to get them on my PC. I installed iCloud onto the PC and still can't find my pictures?

My phone was stolen, but I had no data left and so can't locate it till the person who has it tries to use the internet. I backed up all my photos on iCloud, and want to get them on my PC. I installed iCloud onto the PC and followed the instructions and still can't find my pictures, says my photostream folder is empty, but it shows on iCloud that i've used most of my storage which is true, so they must be there somewhere?
Any ideas? I'd really appreciate the help! Thanks

Yes, I filed police report, but there is nothing they can do until I get back to them on the tracking. It's been offline. I'm sure the whoever took it can find a way around breaking in the ipad..i really was hoping to get my pictures and videos of my kids back

I have insurance through apple for my iPhone 4. Last night my phone was stolen. Am I covered under insurance to get a new phone? And how much will it cost? Second- what should I do about it? I don't know if I should shut down the phone or what?

No, you simply do not. Apple does not sell insurance.
Apple offers an Extended Warranty called AppleCare.
Warranties doe not cover lost or stolen devices. Buy a new one.

The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup... Restore as New...

If you try all these Steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step... Be sure to make an appointment first...

My iphone randomly turned off out of nowhere. I was getting dressed, my phone was working one minute then literally the next it syopped now it wont charge i cant turn it on however the phone is on cause i called it and it rang. What to do? help please. I tried putting it in DFU mode but my lock button doesnt work and my phone wont charge so i cant connect to itunes

There is no reason to put it in DFU mode, a reset should work. Although, without a working power button it is not possible to reset the device.
Sounds like it is time to replace the damaged device.

PLEASE HELP!!!

Hold down the Home and Power button to shut off the iPhone. Keep it disconnected from the computer. Then, hold down the Home for 20 seconds. Connect it to the computer while continuing to hold down the Home button. Wait for iTunes to say your iPhone is in Recovery mode. Then, restore.

Shame you had the iPhone hacked as O2 usually unlock their customers iPhones happily.
We cannot discuss your problem as it is in breach of the Ts&Cs you agreed to on registering
However hint ....you have probably trashed it

First you can try to force reboot your phone. To do this:
1. Hold down the sleep/wake button and home button simultaneously.
2. Let go when the Apple logo appears and the iPhone is booting up.
If that doesn't work, you might need to hook the phone up to your computer and do a full restore through iTunes.

Okay my phone was working just fine and I locked it and went to unlock it and now it just sits on the black screen it wont even show the lock screen I dont know what to do but I am very careful with my phone anyone know how to fix it? Plz and thank you!

Okay my phone was working just fine and I went to unlock it and it wont show the lock screen it just remains black please if anyone can help me fix it it will be much appreciated, I am very careful with my phone so I dont know why its acting like this.

I'm glad to hear that they replaced your phone. Any experience I have had with Apple customer service and/or Genius bar has been extremely positive. While I have had positive outcomes from trouble with other phones in the past, they are not as quick and friendly. I had a Motorola phone and a Samsung phone go bad several years ago and warranty work through AT&T required that I wait for a replacement unit and then mail back the original unit to keep from being charged for the device. This usually meant almost a week without a phone. Nice to walk into Apple and walk out with a replacement device. Enjoy your phone.

HT4528 I installed the new update and it is frozen with a picture of the charger head, an arrow pointing to a iTunes image. How do I get my phone to work properly?

What happened when you tried to restore and update the iPod?
