When I try to log on to I Tunes, I receive a message that it is locked or that I don't have permission to use it. How do I fix this?

If iTunes was working previously then it is possible that the preference file that records the location of your library has been corrupted. Clicking the icon to launch iTunes then immediately press and hold down the shift key. Keep holding until asked to choose or create a library. Click choosem then browse to and open your iTunes Library.itl file, normally found in <User's Music>\iTunes.
Alternatively see Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows if there really is a permissions issue or Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash in case the library itself is damaged.

First of all, are you using the OS native screen capture?
If not, make sure the application you're using has been update for Lion. I was using Snapz Pro for years, but I need to update it for use with Lion. Meanwhile Grab and the keyboard shortcuts are working on my Lion load.
If you are using the native capture mode unsuccessfully, I would run the Disk Utility and repair permissions on the drive. For some reason, even in past OS Versions, routine maintenance of permissions makes life a lot easier.

That message refers to storage on your iPhone, not cloud storage. You will need to move content off your phone to make more space.

I have the iPhone 5 and I keep getting a no sim card message. I have had my phone for over a year now so I know I have a sim card. How can I fix this because it doesn't let me get calls now.

Try resetting the phone. Hold the home and power lock button until the Apple logo appears.If that does not work, turn the phone off and take the SIM out and then put it back in.
If that still does not work, you may have a defective SIM, in which case you will need a new one from your carrier.

You make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store and get it serviced/replaced. You broke it. If you can't even force a reboot, there's nothing much more you can do.

My FaceTime isn't working properly. Every call I make a black dot appears on the camera in the middle (fixed onto the screen, and is not dirt), and the calls always fail. It would ring 6 times and then say call failed. How can I fix this?

If FaceTime ever worked properly for you, restarting your modem (and separate router/wireless if you have such) may help. If the problem continues, try connecting at a different location to see if the problem is within your wi-fi.
The black dot problem may mean you need to reset your iPod. If that does not help, it may need service by an Apple Authorized Service Provider.
