HT1766 I cannot backup my iphone, it keeps telling me the backup is corrupt and not compatible. All forums have suggested I delete the last backup but that was months ago and I'm afraid if I do that and it still doesn't work, I won't have anything saved

Try to connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
Before that, back up your device, explained here:

After you delete them, empty the trash before they re-load.

All of a sudden I can not play videos that are sent to me, I had no trouble playing them with quicktime before, what can I do?

I have had this iMac for 5 years and have had zero problems with it , I run the lastest software (not mountain Lion) and all of a sudden I can not play downloaded videos that have been sent to me. What can I do ?

Either launch VLC (assuming you have installed it) and then open the file you want to view from within VLC, or, select the file (don't open) you want to view and do Command+I and from the window that appears select VLC from the 'Open with:' option.
You can make this the default if you wish by also clicking on the 'change all' button.

I have heard of people accidentally putting applications in the fabled 12th page and being unable to locate them afterwards. Usually, a simple hard reset will correct such a glitch. This glitch is common to those who have an extensive amount of applications. Do you have many apps? To verify whether the application is misplaced or actually removed, do a quick spotlight search for the Messages application. If spotlight can still find it, then it is certainly on your phone.
For the record, there is no such thing as a 12th page. The iPhone can have 11 pages of apps/folders displayed. You can have as many apps as you have memory space for, though. Anything that can't be placed on a home screen can be accessed by searching.
There is also no such thing as a "hard reset". There is a reset (press and hold the Home and power buttons until the silver apple appears). This is the equivalent of rebootig a computer. It will NOT affect icon placement. Restoring the phone as new (wiping it back to factory settings) will restore the original icon placement but is the equivalent of using a nucluear bomb to swat a fly. It is possible to reset the screen layout without loosing any data by going to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

My screen has gone grey and i can do nothing with the phone, what can I do?

The phone fell from my desk with a little help fom a hungry cat... seemed ok at first but later in the day I found the screen to be a dark grey & dead to the touch. This is clearly not good & I have no idea what I can try, any helpful suggestions would be gratefully recieved. Oh yes, I know the phone is part working as I can hear it respond to an incoming text & it rings when rung!

Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

I keep putting in my security code but it keeps telling me that its invalid..... What can i do to fix this?

?

the security code is 3 numbers...... so caps shoudnt affect it and i did try it with and without caps on

My IPhone need to restore, but I want to backup my data first. Itunes keep telling me you must restore this iphone before it can be used. How I can backup my data?

At this point it is too late. When you restore it will restore the backup made at the time of the last sync. And changes to the phone's content after that last sync will be lost.

I moved the mobilesync path where my backups should be stored. However, since then I moved some folders around which I think is the source of my error. I can no longer backup my iphone. How do I fix this?

A while ago, I moved the mobilesync path so that it would stop trying to backup onto my C drive. However, since then I moved some folders around which I think is the source of my error. I can no longer backup my iphone It just tells me that the backup is corrupted. When i go to preferences, devices, and look under backups it is empty. How do I fix this?

Howdy there mjspace1994,
It sounds like you are unable to backup your phone after moving the mobile sync folder from its default location. If moving it back manually does not resolve the issue, I would next use either of the following articles to remove iTunes from your computer and then re install it. The articles outline the proper order to remove them in, and step by step instructions:
Remove and Reinstall iTunes and other software components from Windows XP
Remove and reinstall iTunes and related software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

I am trying to backup my iPhone but the email used for my Apple ID has been deactivated so I can no longer log into my account or back up my iPhone. How do I back it up otherwise? Or how do I change my email?

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...
