IPhone 3G 4.2.1 Downgrade help
Hi please help me...
I recently updated my iPhone to 4.1 and accidentally updated the baseband, thus losing my unlock... I then had to resort to updating to 4.2.1 to update my BB to 6.15.00. I then decided that 4.2.1 was too slow for me and decided that I wanted to downgrade to 4.0, or if possible 3.x. I did shift+click restore in iTunes, but the bar restore bar on my phone stops at about 95% and will not move any longer.
Please help, I need the phone to go on a business trip and this is the only phone I have.
Thanks

We would if we could, but we can't as stated in the above posts. Try Google.

Yeah, try Google, but it may really be messed up. I would try to just return to iOS 4.2.1 but iTunes will return errors as it will run into issues with the updated baseband. If you got this far you either have some clue of what you are doing or just followed instructions for something you shouldn't have done. Just search google, not here.

I would not rely a hacked iPhone for business. Other than the issues you have sun into with upgrading and the baseband; hacking the iPhone can lead to vulnerabilities in the security of iOS. You are potentially letting hackers have free access to the information on your iPhone.

Hi All, I plugged my iPhone into my laptop and I was asked to upgrade my iTunes software. It took more than seven hours and just to be told that my SIM card does not appear to be supported. Since then I can not use my iPhone. I am lost plse help. Jam53
Every time I switch on the iPhone, the iTunes icon is displayed together with a USB icon and Emergency call message appears on the screen in many languages. When I touch the i symbol I get the following information IMEI: **** AND ICCID: ****
However, the iphone is visible in the Devices directory in iTunes. I changed my SIM card but still can not be recognized by the iPhone.
<Edited By Host>Do you mean when you say its locked to another carrier other then the one im using, that maybe my insurance sent me an iphone thats for a different network for example orange and not mine which is o2?

I just got a new iPhone 5. The sales person helped me transfer some photos from my MacBook Pro to the iPhone. Now, I can't get iPhoto to move photos from Photostream to events. Help!
Make sure you have iPhoto's Photo Stream preferences set as follows:
What happens when you drag photos from the Photo Stream window in iPhoto onto the Events icon in the left hand pane? That should import the photos into the library.
If it doesn't thenTry the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
3 - launch iPhoto, reset its various preferences and try again.
NOTE 1: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
NOTE 2: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

hi, I bought a second hand iphone 4s and seller has blocked it and reset it know the iphone is asking for a email and password that the seller was using, I can't contact him know and i'm left with an Iphone that is useless, can you help ma please?
Sorry, there is nothing you can do until the device is removed from the sellers Apple ID.
Without that, your device can't be used, check these articles:

my friend ipad 2 was stolen if they reset the device in factory setting,just wanna ask if we can still locate the device using find my iphone...mobileme?pls help me,...
It's unfortunate that your device has been stolen. You can report this to the police, but as has been answered before, if the device is restored you CANNOT locate it.
It probably is technically possible to track your device by the SIM; law enforcement will not waste their time doing so. Besides, the thieves have probably changed it anyway.
While unfortunate your iPad is gone, you really need to move on. -

Try resetting your phone by holding down the home and off button until the apple symbol comes up. Then if still doing, restore your phone in itunes from your backup.

In iTunes, I have a number of tones stored. I don't know how to access them to add to listed people on my iPhone. I would appreciate any help.
Drap and drop the tones from iTunes onto the phone. Select the contact you wish you add the tone to. Click edit and select ringtone.
