IPhone 3G is freaking out! Alod or bricked?
Okay so i got my iphone on friday and it was working great until yesterday. First it would spiradically lock and do tthis immediately after i unlocked it. Then if i leave it alone, it turns off and the apple logo will appear for a few seconds and then disappear. It will continue to do this even if i try to turn it on, and it wont. The lock button doesnt seem to have problems but it wont work anymore. What is wrong and how do i fix it?
Standard troubleshooting:
1. Reset (hold the sleep/wake & home button until the Apple logo appears)
2. Restore in iTunes.
3. If 1 & 2 don't work, schedule an appointment at the Genius Bar - http://apple.com/retail/geniusbar

PLEASE HELP ME! MY IPHONE 4S IS FREAKING OUT
the top button on my iphone 4s is not working. So I tried to shut off my phone, now my phone is off and it keeps trying to restart up by its self and will not stay off. The silver apple just keeps poping up. I dont know what to do or whats wrong. ive plugged into my computer and nothing is helping, please help me!!!!
Try this:
While connected to iTunes, hold both the home and power buttons at the same time until the screen goes blank. When the Apple boot logo reappears, release the power button but continue holding the home button. If connected to iTunes, this should place the phone in Recovery Mode. You will need to restore your data from a backup afterwards.
If that doesn't work or you don't have a backup, let the phone keep trying to restart itself until it runs out of battery. -
Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I wasted about 1.5 hours with Apple on this issue. It all started happening after I updated to the latest version of iTunes. I haven't been able to sync my iPhone 4 in 1 month and am freaking out about possibly losing my pictures, video, text messages and music.
Windows XP user.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
iPhone 4, iOS 5.1.1If might be helpful if you actually told us what the problem is.

Can find my iPhone be turned on remotely? I had it turned off, and twice in the last month I've found that it is turned on and someone was tracking my location. I'm a little freaked out! Is there any way that someone could be turning "find my iPhone" on remotely? I was under the assumption that the only way to turn the service on was from my phone itself.. Is there any way that my phone is somehow resetting itself to a time when the app was turned on? I'm just grabbing straws here... I have no idea. I just know that the location arrow came on at the top of my phone, and it showed that someone was tracking my phone at that very moment... Any help would be appreciated!

Find my phone can only be enabled from the device itself. -
I just sold my iPhone 4s after doing a reset and deleting data and settings. Is there anyway the buyer can see any of my old photos, texts, or data? I have confidential info for work and family photos and freaked out that they can be found somehow.
No, but if the answer was yes it's a little late to start getting freaked out about it.

Follow the 3R's- if a restart does not solve your problem proceed
User troubleshooting is:
1.restart, ie power off/on,
2. reset http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430,
3. restore from backup, restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414 -
Bought a new iMac in November and finally got around to backing up my iPad to it. All software is up to date on both, but when I plug my iPad into the computer it starts freaking out. On the iPad, a message pops up about trusing or not trusting the computer, however it flashes multiple times on the screen and I can't hit trust. Also, the battery icon flashes charging/not charging. Really, the whole screen keeps flashing. On the computer (screen shot attached) this pops up. I hit continue and then the second picture pops up. To top it off, once I unplug the iPad I literally had to click "Ok" in the second picture 37 times before it went away. I've owned three iPads and 4 or 5 Macs over the years and have never had something like this happen. I can't connect via wifi either. I have tried restarting the computer and iPad. I have not tried another lightning cable because I do not have one. The cable I have works fine if I plug it into the wall to charge it. Oh yeah, I also tried using all of the USB ports on the computer.
I'm running an iPad with Retina (Model MD511LL/A) wifi 32gb on iOS 7.0.4, a 27" iMac with OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 and iTunes 11.1.3
Any ideas? Thanks!
I hit continue, and this comes up every time.
Notice how it says iPhone instead of iPad? I have to hit ok multiple times after I unplug the iPad. If I leave it plugged in, this does not go away.Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.
Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

Please i dont know what to do now >.<
DId you try to jailbreak your phone? Evidently, the computer you're syncing with has been used to jailbreak, or attempt to jailbreak an iOS at some point and there is an entry in the host file that attempts to bypass Apple's authentication servers.
Google is your friend. -

Hi Guys,
I am using the full width video widget on a site. The widget was working perfectly however I have just added additional content to the site and re-uploaded and now the video is not working! Please help I have tried everything and am freaking out as this web-site has been payed for by my client.
AlexMany thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.) -
Can you change the legth of time (or number of rings) it takes for on iphone 4 to time out making an outgonig call?
Mostly it's to call in for radio contests. The Iphone is really good at making a quick call, but it seems to timeout after 15-20 rings. I realise this is a small thing, but free tickets is free tickets.
Most commenst I see is abotu incoling calls, not outging.
Thanks.No. You can't do this with any phone.

Is it possible to transfer music between iPhones and iPods with out using iTunes
Is it possible to transfer music between iPhones and iPods with out using iTunes
Nope. Both require iTunes on a computer to sync music from.
Unless the iPod is an iPod Touch and the music was bought from iTunes. In which case the Touch can simply go to the iTunes App, under Purchased and download the purchased songs for free. -

My Ipod touch is freaking out!
This just started happening about a week ago...it seems to be ok when you first turn it on, but after a few moments..it freaks out. For instance, my keyboards--with whatever app, beit email or notes or a game..I try to type a letter--it types everything BUT that letter. And none of the erase buttons work to go back. On the Music--I keep trying to go to Playlists and it keeps flipping to Artists and pursues its own songs! Sometimes I don't even have to touch the Ipod--I just get my finger near it and it picks up the button it thinks I'm trying to touch and goes to whereever! It's like its possessed! It will cut in the middle or beginning of a song and go to whatever other song. It's not on shuffle or genious or whatever...I did a full reset by holding down the two buttons, but that only temporary fixes it. I can't type anything on it because it presses its own letters uncontrollably. Please help..this is a brand new Ipod I just got for Christmas. I didn't get it wet, I've been very careful with it. I do not want a refurb! I have lots of stuff on this 32G! :((
Basics from the manual are restart,reset, restore:

The wi-Fi button on my IPhone 4S is greyed out and will not turn on and therefore I am not able to receive wi-fi. How can I fix this problem?
Follow the steps in the article below to try and resolve the issue:
iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
