Hi jonnarink,
Try this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
In short:
1) Make sure the iPhone is not connected to USB and, if it is on, turn it off by holding the power button and the home button together(takes about 6 seconds)
2) Once it's completely off, hold down the home button
3) While holding home, connect the USB cable and keep holding home until iTunes recognises the iPhone
It will force the iPhone into recovery mode, then you can connect to iTunes and restore your backup. Bear in mind that it will likely need to be updated to 5.0.1 anyway.
:edit:
Sorry, just saw Ralph Landry1's post above mine(typed mine a while ago, only posted now!) with the same link

You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the monitor. In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the monitor and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen. You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the monitor your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.

Try:

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

HT4623 i tried to update my iphone 4s to ios 6 wierlessly and it dosent turn on now

please help me

As you were told in your previous post asking the exact same question, no.
You must restore your iPhone. The answer will not change no matter how many times you ask.

HT1414 my iphone 4s has just went dead and nothing seems to bring it to life. it hasnt been dropped nothing I'm baffled! Please help!!!

Hello,
My iphone 4s has just gone blank and hasn't been dropped or smashed or hurt basically I'm baffled! Please help!!!

Try resetting it: hold the on/off and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release. Also see https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3763.

I took my daughter's new Iphone 5 to shop and they replaced it with a new one. Today she logged on to my ICloud account and deleted all my contacts and just kept the ones she wanted. Can I retrieve my contacts, please help

My daughter has a new Iphone 5 and we share an ITunes account. She logged on to my Icloud Account and deleted all my contacts this morning. Can i restore this as I now only have her friends as my contacts?

No, data like Email, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes are only synced between devices and not included in icloud backups, so unfortunately you won't be able to restore them. Please see also: iCloud storage and backup overview: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12519/

Have you tried the usual cures such as resetting your phone or backing it up then restoring from the backup?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Also
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.

Photoshop saved a PSD file with security permissions, and now I can't access it. Please help!

Using Photoshop CC, I saved a PSD file after several hours of editing. I also exported a TIF file from the PSD. After closing Photoshop, I cannot access either file in any way. I cannot even copy them.
going to properties --> security, I get a message that reads, "You must have Read permissions to view the properties of this object." Click Advanced to continue.
When I click Advanced, it says "Unable to display current owner", and in none of the three tabs available (Permissions, Auditing, or Effective Access) can I click "Continue" and get any further than the message, "You do not have permission to view or edit this object's permission settings".
Please help me. This is highly frustrating, and a bug that is costing me over an hour of my time troubleshooting.
Thank you.
UPDATE:
I rebooted, and the files are... gone. Photoshop CC has no record of the file under "Open Recent".
What just happened? I lost a good 2 hours of work and a unique photograph
UPDATE2
I restarted the project, saved a PSD with Maximize Compatibility selected. Verified this file has appropriate permissions.
When I then go to File --> Save (not "Save as", but "Save"), after progressing to 90% or so, an error message comes up, "Could not save 'O:\[path]\file.PSD' because the file name was not valid."
I click "OK", and then go to the original file and check its permissions. They are now changed to "You must have read permissions".

I have this exact problem too. Windows 8.1 CC 2014 and all of a sudden I get the problems AIJ23 has. Say I have 8 files open, I save the first 3 or four, just with Control-S (saving in PSD format) no problem, then all of a sudden on the next save I get a message saying I don't have permission to save over the file followed by the same problems as above. I use Save As so I don't loose my work but I cannot delete/rename/change permissions of the original file. This only started happening about 2-3 days ago and only happens in Photoshop. I haven't managed to find much about this issue anywhere.

Can't unlock my MacBook Pro. Recently, I've changed my password, now I can't access anything. Please help!!!

I Have a MacBook Pro 13, which I bought in 2010. I'm not really sure which version of operating system I do have, because I haven't updated it for a long time. I've changed my password recently and now I can't unlock it. It just jiggles and says that password is wrong. Then it asks the security question, but even doesn't work. I'm pretty sure that I'm typing everything correct, but it's not working. I took it to the service store, they couldn't do anything. Please help me to unlock it.

I might have messed up my files and now have the big exclamation mark on a lot (but not all of my iphotos) My document folder was full of photos and I tried to organize it by putting it into a separate folder but now I can't see my photos :-( please help?

Hi there, I have the same problem as I've read on some of the questions posted although the answers hasn't been much help to me with regards to the big exclamation mark on iphotos when I try to open my photos. For some reason my photo files was stored in my document folder and you can imagine how that must have looked, very unorganized. When I tried to move the photos from there to another file that is just for my photos. Now I can't open them in iphotos and although I tried to undo my mistake it still doesn't want to work.. is there any way I can find all the images on my computer and fix my problem by storing them somewhere else without damaging the files?
Please help me find all my photos as I would be shattered if I were to loose any...
Thank you.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

I deleted my filevault.. Now I can't log in. Please HELP!

Hi All,
I recently deleted my filevault from my bf's username, and now cannot log into my account. He can still log in, and I can log into my other account. I would just use the other account I have set up but all my music, photos etc are on my account that I cannot access
I've been looking for solutions online, and managed to log into my Root User account but when I go to Macintosh HD > Users (as the internet told me) my user name isn't there so I cannot follow the guide to get it working again
Please help this is driving me crazy, and making me reach a point where I want to get rid of this Mac and buy a PC - because I cannot resolve any issues I have!!
Any help would really be appreciated here
Thanks in advance

I think yur best bet is to contact the Music store customer service. They have access to your accounts and will be able to understand why it didn't let you log in the first time.
Here's the form to contact them:
