I got locked out of my ipad by a passcode and the itunes restart is not working
I was locked out of my ipad because I forgot the passcode. I have tried the iTunes restart to wipe everything off the ipsd to start over and it is not working.
Here's the Apple support page on this. If the Restpre process doesn't work you need to put your device into Recovery mode. Read through all the steps and follow them carefully.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled

I have an Iphone 5s, touchpad was working perfectly fine with IOS 7, but ever since I got the IOS 8 update the touchpad has not been working.
All Macs come with a one year limited warranty.

Why can't you use the Bluetooth keyboard?
According to the link I posted for the AHT..
"For some Apple computers that shipped with OS X Lion, if Apple Hardware Test cannot be found on the hard drive, an Internet-based version starts up instead." -
I got locked out from my iPad mini during my initial setup. Keep ask me for passcode but I haven't setup one. Reboot and restart didn't solve the problem, tried connect to iTunes but it won't let me because it requires the passcode. Tried my Exchanged password, Apple ID password and my iPhone passcode but none work. Any idea to resolve this?
Try and force your iPad into Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. -
The search function in the itunes store does not work. It will accept a request and suggest searches but then it locks up and will not search. Clicking on the magnifying glass or a suggested search does nothing. Re-installing itunes has not helped.

Depends on the damage. The battery came loose in my iPhone. When Apple opened the phone to redo the glue they discovered the speakers were also loose. Apple replaced the phone.
If the glue was properly bonded or had some other flaw Apple will replace the device if the device is still under warranty. -

- Try a reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
Try moving the iPod right next to the router. Maybe the antenna got disconnected. -

My ipad has a black screen and the power button is not working. Help!
This is the second time my ipad screen has gone black. The power button is not working. I reset the ipad about two weeks ago when this happened. However, this time I am not able to get itunes to recognize the device. It keeps asking to respond from the ipad (obviously with a black screen that isn't going to happen). Im not sure what to try next...thoughts?
Have you tried to give it a reset?
Reset
Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot. No data will be lost. -
My iphone is out of warranty and the ear receiver is not working
My iphone is out of warranty, the ear receiver is not working as i cant hear anything from it. Only when i put the phone in speaker mode or plug the headphones i can hear, if i take it to the apple store will it get replaced for a refurbish one?
I have tried most of the stuff that i have found in here. I held the home button and sleep button until the apple cameout, i plugged in and out the headphones, i blew air into the headphone jack, i restored my phone. I dont think it has to do anything with the earphone jack because when there are hear phones and i bring the volume up or down it doesnt say headphones in the volume bar. Any other suggestions guys? do you guys think that ill get it exchanged at the apple store without a warranty?

Ipad mini water damage and now my volume does not work!
Phone was in purse where I accidentally put a water(which I thought was closed tightly) and now my volume does not work!
Water is generally fatal for iPads. You might take it to your Authorized Apple Service Center and see what they can do for you.
Prepare to replace your iPad. -

On our ipad the speaker has quit working. Sound is only heard when you have head phones plugged in. We have reset the system three times cleaned out the headphone jack. Changed languages and rest but nothing works. This ipad is important to our daughter it is her tool to communicate with us and now it is not working please help
You've done well with troubleshooting so far. Next step would be to back up and then restore from iTunes. Good luck!

I paid for this service to fix my glass on my phone and now the entire LCD display is not working and after my repair the home button stopped working and I went back and they told me it was like that before the repair which it wasn't and they are telling me I need to pay 300 plus for a replacement phone that's refurbished now I don't understand apples support is suppose to be the best in the business and I have been more then ripped of the service I got damaged my phone more than it was before I would like to know where I can go to talk to someone who will help me not tell me it's my fault this is outrageous!!!
Take the issue up with whomever replaced the device, whether that is Apple or another company.
There is nothing that we, your fellow users, in these user to user support forums can do for you.
