Sorry. We can't help you. It's no longer an iPhone. Apple won't touch it.
Take it to whoever replaced the screen and see if they can help you.
iPhones are not user servicable and Apple does not sell iPhone parts at all. I'd be surprised if you were actually able to back it up at this point. It sounds like it's completely borked.

How do I view the songs on my iPod and how do I delete some songs and pictures that are on my iPod through the new iTunes

I just bought an iPod off of a friend andher ex put alot of terrible music and pictures on it and I want to delete some music but I can't see what is on The iPod through the iTunes so I can erase music. So all I wanna know is how do I see and erase the stuff on my iPod using iTunes on my lab top

If you have iTunes 11 on your laptop then you can enable the left-hand sidebar on it via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC. You should then be able to connect the iPod and it should show on that left-hand sidebar, and underneath it should be a Music section e.g. similar to :
Select that and the music should be shown on the right-hand side of iTunes, which you can then use to delete it.
You should be able to remove all content from the iPod directly on it via Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings, as any apps etc that are on it will be tied to the previous owner's id - that will also remove any photos from the iPod

IPhone shows 11.77GB taken up by "Other". What is it and how can I delete it?

iPhone 4 shows 11.77GB taken up by "other" what is it and how can i delete it?

One of the great mysteries of the Universe.
However, I can tell you that if you power cycle the phone, Other will diminish significantly in size. So it probably contains caches, app workspaces, whathaveyou. Just had close to 4GB, but after force quitting all apps and then turning it off and on, Other went down to a tad over 1GB.

If you have never connected the phone to iTunes and backed it up or used iCloud to backup your data, it is lost at this point.
The only way to get back into the phone is to restore it.

I will lose everything when i do so right?
Yes, but isn't that what you wanted?
I just want to lose enough space to make a copy of the old ipad and restore it on the new one basicly.
Not to lose everything that is on my old ipad, like all the apps that are on there already.
So i can just use my new one and do all manually?
What does that mean?
I meant, if I do lose everything, then i'll have to use my new ipad without any back up restored from the old ipad correct?

I have an IPhone 5. There is 17.01 GB of other memory being taken up. I've been told my memory has been corrupted and I need to restore my phone to a new IPhone. If I do this, will I lose everything on my phone? I backed up my phone in iCloud yesterday.

I can't figure out what is taking up 17.01 GB of memory on my IPhone 5. I have read in these forums that I should restore my IPhone to its original settings, but I am afraid if I do that I will lose all my stuff. I did back my phone up in iCloud by plugging it into my laptop, but I still don't feel i know what Im doing is 100% correct. Can anyone guide me along? I would greatly appreciate the help.

Yes, when you restore as new everything will be wipe from your phone.
You will need to sync with itunes http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386 to get back your apps/music and contacts IF you sync with a program in itunes.
I suggest you import your pics to your computer http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 then after you restore your phone, you can sync it back to your phone.

I have a Iphone 4 and switched to Iphone 4s. All contacts transferred. However, I now want to delete the contacts from Iphone 4 and give the phone to someone else. How can I delete the contacts from the Iphone 4 without deleting from Iphone 4s??

How can I remove contacts from Iphone 4 without removing contacts from cloud or Iphone 4s?

I started deleting the Iphone 4 contacts for a trial....It also deleted the Iphone 4s contacts at the same time. I was afraid to erase all would mean that I lost all that has been loaded to Iphone 4s.

HT1206 I just purchased a second ipad, can I have more than one itune account on the same computer? If so how do I set that up?

I just purchased my second ipad and I want to have it under a different apple id. I want to keep it more streamlined for things that I really use and not filled up with a lot of games, pictures and so on. I don't know how to go about setting the itunes account up. So can anyone out there help me with this.
thanks,
kathy

I would advise that you not set up a second Apple ID. It's really not necessary - having two Apple IDs won't affect how iTunes works with your iPads - and will just complicate matters. Each iPad will be treated independently and can be set to sync only the items you want on that particular iPad. If you really want to keep the two iPads separate, set up different iTunes libraries and have only those items you want on the related iPad in that library, rather than a different Apple ID. If you plan not to use a computer and just download directly to the iPads, you can again choose what apps and content each iPad gets.
But answering your specific question, you can have content from up to five iTunes Store accounts on any one computer or iPad. To create a new iTunes Store account, you'll need a different email address, and from there you just create the account the same way you did the first one.
Regards.

I was stolen my iphone Can I erase my data from the phone?

I was stolen my iphone
Can I erase all my data from the phone from the cloud?
- contact
- notes
passwords....?

If you activated Find My iPhone (in Settings>icloud), and if the device's batteries still have a charge, the device is not turned off and has not been reset and is connected to wifi, then you can try to track it. Using a computer, log into icloud.com and look at the Find My iPhone page. On a device, invoke the Find My iPhone app (get it for free at the itunes app store) and log into the icloud account.
If it is offline, then one of the requirements listed above is not met (like being connected to wifi, or if the device was stolen and the thief reset it).

I've upgraded iphone to ios6 and text messaging doesn't recognize my frequ. used contacts unless I go into contacts, find the name, etc. -- tedious. what happened? and how can it be fixed. I tried to reset the settings, turned the phone off/ on.

I cannot initiate a text message by typing in the first couple of letters of a name (from my contacts) and the then the name being recognized. Have to go into Contacts, then select name -- tedious. I've tried to reset it, turned the phone on/ off and changed Sort Order, Display Order but nothing has changed. I've updated to the io6. Any thoughts??

Hi,
Firstly, your country is detemined by several factors, including your phone's regional settings, your SIM card and your NokiaAccount settings, if you used this phone whilst abroad then you may need to check that your regional and account settings are up to date since you have arrived in Canada.
For services like Gigs, you should also ensure that the MixRadio app has access to your phone's GPS location as well as the main location being on in the phone settings. To check this, as well as Location being turned on in the phone settings, in MixRadio itself go to Settings>Location>On:
The concern with favourites may also be related to location, if the music from certain artists is available in Canada but not where the service might think you are, availability of content may vary from region to region.
If all settings in both the phone, your Nokia Account and the MixRadio app are correct, we may have to investigate deeper.
It is impossible to comment on your camera without seeing it, you cold have the phone checked by Nokia Care locally, but of course if it was supplied in Europe it will be covered by the European Limited Warranty which is not valid in Canada.
If this or any post answers your question, please remember to help others by pressing the 'Accept as solution' button.

For the last month or so my icloud won't back up, it keeps telling me that there is too much storage and I need to delete some data. But I have deleted between 3-400 photos and it is still saying the same, can anyone please help

If they were deleted from your camera roll that should have resulted in a corresponding decrease in the estimated size of your next backup.
If it's still saying that you don't have enough storage to back up, read through this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4847. It provides some suggestions for reducing your iCloud storage, such as deleting unneeded email.
The other area to look at is your text messages. These are included in the backup. If you have lots of photos and videos attached to your messages, that can significantly increase the size of your backup. If that's the case, deleting these may make a big difference.
