I broke my iphone
it was my own fault, i broke my iphone in a stupid accident. it has a broken screen and a large smash on the back side on the camera corner. i'm not going to ask Apple to replace it, because like i said it was my fault. what i'd like to know is, if i bought a new iphone, how does the sim card/existing account transfer to the new phone? do i need to contact at&t or does itunes take care of all that?
i feel so bad, i think i need to go to confession and ask for forgiveness for doing such a horrible thing to such a cool device.
I would go to apple anyhow and see what they can do, they are very much about customer satisfaction when accidents happen. I know people who have gotten devices replaced for free, even though it was their own fault. The logic behind this for them is that you will remember it, you will most likely continue to purchase their products and also recommend their products. An iPhone replacement is a small price to pay for all that advertising that you will do for them.
Give it a try.

I have an iphone 5. I have no idea of the ios version in it. Recently i broke my iphone screen and its showing up nothing. it was never synced to itunes or to any pc. When i tried to connect iphone to itunes in my pc it was asking for passcode which i had forgotten ages ago. Suggest me the possible ways to recover my iphone.
Since the screen doesn't work, it will be challenging to get it working, even thru iTunes. You will need to ask yourself if you want to invest more money in it or get a new one, especially since the contents will be lost since you don't know the passcode. Apple will gladly replace the screen for a cost that represents a significant portion of the price of a new. Once the screen is done, you may or may not be eligible for the free iPhone 5 Battery Replacement Program.
Or, if you decide to salvage it and are strong of heart and firm of hand, you can replace the screen yourself for less. See here and note they carry kits with all needed tools and parts. -
HT5538 Broke my iPhone so i want to use my iPod touch for imessaging but my imessages wont send
I broke my iPhone and I would like to use my iPod to send iMessages, except everytime i try and send a message they won't deliver. My iPhone and iPod accounts are linked.... so not sure why this is happening. I went into messages settings and made sure my send & recieve was correct and it is. someone help please!!
Do the recipients have an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad with the Messages app and are yo calling the email address or phone number they set up for Messages?
An iPod can only Message to another iOS device with Messages.
Otherwise

I was travelling to the US and I broke my iPhone during my stay there, luckily I backed up my iPhone before I left to go to the US. So I managed to get myself a new iPhone during my holiday stay. but was unable to obtain my old photos as I did not bring the laptop with me. And was waiting to get back to UK before I can restore it. Of course, since I was on a holiday I have used my iPhone to take photos. When I came back to the UK I connected my iPhone to my itunes on my latop and later realised that it restored all data, but not the photos or anything that I have taken during my holiday? Any idea how I can get that too? very very desparate!
Were you using iCloud? If so, have you checked your photo stream? If you weren't using Photo Stream, there is likely no way to recover your photos.

broke my iphone 5s screen , bought an ipad today is there anyway to sync info between the two that was not in my icloud? The screen is pretty cracked but phone still works i get emails, texts, and everything else to it just cant view them. Is there anyway i can connect the two and pull information off the iphone?
You can only restore what was backed up.
you can sync to iTunes to get your music and apps. -
I have problem in restoring my iphone. I broke the iphone contract in USA and came to India. I got steps to unlock in a mail and i followed those steps. When i try to restore using itunes then it always says some message like "turn off find my phone." How can i get rid of this message.
You can access iCloud.com on a computer to turn it off.

I broke my iPhone and now using my grandson's old iphone 3. I inserted my sim and it works but when I plug into the computer, iTune's still recognizes the phone as my grandson's phone and won't recognize my music and apps on iTunes. How do I fix this?? Help please!
You need to connect the iPhone 3G with USB cable to the computer you Sync your old iPhone with. Then let the new iPhone Restore from Back Up of your old iPhone.

i broke my iphone 4s screen, then i tried to fix and replace it by myself. unfortunately, i cannot do that correctly. i also damaged my wifi parts and shut off button. and my new screen is very hard to drive and use. i really want to repair those 3 problems. what should i do? how much money will be cost?
Hello!
When there is unauthorized modifications on the iPhone Apple doesnt replace the product. Unfortunately you will need to get a new iPhone!
If you could have contacted Apple when you broke your screen you would be eligible to get a replacement after paying the Out of Warranty service fee.
All the best!

I broke my iPhone 5 now using a 4 but don't know if or how to get my photos ect..from the 5 to the 4.can I do this and how plse help
Restore the backup of your iPhone 5 to your iPhone 4. It will contain your camera roll photos.
To do this, first make sure the iPhone 4 is running the same or higher version of iOS as your iPhone 5 was. If it isn't, you'll need to update it first. Then, to restore the iCloud backup, you'll have to begin by erasing the iPhone 4. If you have any newer data on the iPhone 4 that is not contained in the iPhone 5 backup, you'll need to save that first. When you're ready, go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, then go through the set screens on the iPhone 4 and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud backup and follow the prompt, choosing the backup of your iPhone 5 to restore to. Be sure it is connected to wifi and your charger as it is restoring the backup. -

I've just broke my iPhone 4S LCD screen.
I've just broke my iphone 4S LCD screen, the actual glass is unbroken.
Am I able to take it to an apple store to be fixed/replaced and how much would that cost me as I have no warranty but i've only had it for four months?Yeah, Out-of-Warranty replacements are refurbished iPhones. I went through the same thing with my 4th generation iPod Touch. The glass broke when it fell onto a hard tile floor. I brought it in to the Apple Store and the replacement cost $200. The replacement was a refurbished iPod Touch. They charge for the replacement because AppleCare doesn't cover accidental damage. If you want accidental damage covered, you'll have to get AppleCare+, which is a new option Apple just started carrrying a little while ago, probably to keep people buying some sort of AppleCare, as the regular Apple doesn't cover accidental damage(although a lot of people buy it thinking it covers accidental damage).
Although they might actually repair your iPhone.
I know exactly what you mean about not liking the idea of a previously used iPhone. I was in the same frame of mind as you when I was getting my iPod replaced. I didn't like the idea of a used iPod, but after a few minutes, I got over it. You can hardly tell that it's refurbished because it looks almost like new. -
I just broke my iPhone 5 and can't see the screen. I haven't backed up my iPhone to iCloud yet. Is there a way I can remotely back it up so I can restore my new phone (once I get it) faster?
If you plug your phone into your computer you can sync and backup so that when you get the new phone you can restore from a backup instead of setting it up as a new iphone
