I dropped my phone in water for a few seconds, but it still works. I went to charge the phone but it friend the charger. It still works though. I just cant charge it. Does anyone know what i should do? it actually burnt the tip og the charger and was smoking  I have no idea how the phone is still working. I do not want to buy a new phone.

Hi Sean,
If it fried the charger, then there is something seriously wrong with it. You need to take it to an Apple Store to have it looked at, and be prepared to be told that you will need to get a new phone. If you can't charge it, it will be useless to you in a matter of days anyway. Also, do not even try to hook it up to your computer....you will probably cause serious damage to the computer and be even worse off than you are now.
Sorry about your troubles. But for your own safety, you need to have the phone looked at! Don't wait - if you wait until it has no more charge left, then no one will be able to recharge it to look at it....
Cheers,
GB

  • HT1473 When I try downloading itunes it says itunes can't run because I don't have apple support. Does anyone know what I should do?

    I am having an issue with downloading itunes. It says I need itunes support. Does anyone know what I should do?

    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • My iPad screen went all white when I was trying to close an app. I cant turn it off and iTune cant sync with it either.  Does anyone know what I should do to fix this.

    I have an iPad 2 that is about 2 years old and is in good shape. I was trying to swipe off an app when the screen went all white. I held down the power button to shut it down but it wont do any thing but go black. When I press the power button it come back all white with no icons and no passcode pad. Does anyone know how to fix this or what it is?
    Thanks

Found that on another help site. It works and boy an I glad. Pass it on.

  • Sold my Iphone 5. THe person who brought it has an Irish simcard and so it wont accept it. Does anyone know what I need to do to get it open to the Irish simcard?

    I purchased and Iphone 5 directly from apple, sim free over 12 months ago now. I have been using the phone on Vodafone with no issues. I have now upgraded to the Iphone 6 and therefore sold on the Iphone to a friend of mine. He lives in Ireland and therefore has a Vodafone Ireland simcard. Given that the phone was brought sim free from Apple directly, we didn't foresee that this would be an issue. However, when he goes to activate the phone, this message appears;
    The SIM card inserted in the iPhone does not appear to be supported.
    The SIM card that you currently have installed in  this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information.
    Does anyone know what I need to do? I have got onto Vodafone, and they have been useless!! Apple say the phone is out of the 12 month warranty and therefore want to charge £25 before they will even speak to me about it. I requested an NUC from Vodafone, however, they are saying they need a proof of purchase from Apple as I did not buy the phone from them. I do not have my receipt anymore as the purchase was over 12 months ago now.
    Any advice much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Phill

    Now you have discovered that a sim free phone and an unlocked phone are NOT the same thing.  Had you purchased an unlocked phone from Apple, then you would not have had problems and as it is, a sim free phone is not the same and sim free will lock to the first sim card that you insert into the phone, so effectively, you phone has been locked to Vodafone and this is why you now have problems.
    If your phone is locked to Vodafone, then they are the only ones who can unlock the phone for you - Apple does not and cannot unlock phone - this is the province of the carriers only.
    You had the contract with Vodafone when you used the phone and so you need to keep on at them to unlock the phone for you.  If they still require proof of purchase and you cannot give them this and they will not unlock the phone for you, then this phone is useless to the friend that you sold it to - he will never be able to use it and basically, you are looking at giving him a refund for the phone for the amount that he paid you for it.
    You need to keep on at Vodafone to unlock the phone for you or give your friend a refund for the phone as it will be useless to him and he will never be able to use the phone.
    Hope that you now understand that a SIM Free phone and an Unlocked phone are NOT the same and I hope that when you purchased your iPhone 6, that you bought an unlocked phone?

  • After I sync my ipod I'm getting the message that it cannot backup ipod because backup could not be saved on this computer does anyone know what I could try to resolve this issue?

    After I sync my ipod itunes is giving me the message that backup for my ipod cannot be saved on the computer does anyone know what I could do to fix this issue?

    Check out this Apple document -> iTunes: "Backup could not be saved on the computer" alert message
    To resolve this issue, delete the backup in iTunes Preferences and then create a new backup. If you would like to retain a copy of the backup, you can move the backup file to a different location. The backup is located in the locations below.
    On Windows Vista and Windows 7:
    \Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    To delete the backup file:
        Open iTunes Preferences by choosing iTunes > Preferences (Mac) or Edit > Preferences (Windows).
        Select Devices.
        Select the device backup to delete.
        Click Delete Backup. iTunes will ask if you are sure you want to delete the backup. Click Delete Backup.
        Click OK.
    To manually create a new backup, right-click (or Control-click) iPhone on the left side of the iTunes window under Devices and choose Back Up from the shortcut menu.

  • I show that I have an update to my iPhoto but when I click update it tells me that I have updates to other accounts and I should log into the account that I purchased it through? Does anyone know what I should do?

    My App icon shows that I have one upgrade. When I try to update this app, to my iphoto, it tells me that I have updates available for other accounts and in order to update this application I need to sign in to the account  used to purchased it....I only have one account, so I don't know how to update this, it just stays on my desktop showing that I have 1 update on my App icon...

    Are you sure that these Apps were not purchased using another Apple ID...
    If so, and you only have one ID, then Contact Customer Service...

  • Does anyone know what I should buy for Times-Roman, Times-Italic, Times-Bold etc.?

    I only see Times New Roman. The error message in Adobe Distiller is 'can't find Times-Roman (or Times-Italic or Times-Bold).

    Just play with each and figure out which one you want. I believe they only allow 1 exchange unless it is a defect issue. You can always return the exchanged item and rebuy what you want if they will not allow you to do multiple exchanges.
    But again, you need to really figure out which one you want.

  • I was using my iPad this morning and my internal speakers just stopped working when I tried to turn my nighttime playlist on. Does anyone know what I should do?

    I was listening to music this morning and the speakers on my iPad were working perfectly fine. Then I opened my iSleep App and used it to turn on my nighttime playlist and my alarm clock and my speakers weren't working. I tried restarting it (twice) and it didn't work.
    I plugged my headphones in and sound still comes out. And I don't listen my music all the way or for very long, so I'm pretty sure the speakers didn't blow out.
    Does anybody what the problem is?

    I can merely offer a suggestion, reset the iPad.
    Press Home + sleep/wake buttons simultaneously until the white Apple logo appears.

    One button on the logic board of a 1st generation iMac G5 (PPC) is an alternate power button. Does anyone know what the purpose of the other button is?

    I am far from certain but I believe it is the power management unit (PMU) reset switch a/k/a Cuda switch: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1939
