Iphone 4 got a text and now it is all black and vibrating constantly
I just got my 4 set up and it was setting on the table and I heard a text and then the thing just started in a constant vibrate with no screen response. It sounds like it is going to blow up. I have tried to turn it off and get no response. It has been in constant vibration for 10 minutes now. I cannot shut it off. Itunes doesnt see it and cannot power it off. and it is getting hot. It is like a virus came through the text and started this. I had a full charge and seems like I will have to wait it out till the battery goes dead from the full charge it had. Any ideas?????
try this...
1) Start iTunes and plug the phone in.
2) With the phone powered on, hold both the POWER and HOME buttons for
seven seconds. The screen should turn black.
3) Wait two seconds while the screen is black and release the POWER button
while still holding the HOME button.
4) The screen will remain black, but after a few more seconds iTunes will
detect the phone in recovery mode.
5) Release the HOME button and proceed to restore firmware with iTunes.

Updated to ios 5 and itunes 10.5 for my iphone and now i lost all apps and songs that i had downloaded in the past. how do i get everything back?
in order to restore your songs and apps, you should just reconnect to itunes and sync your data. your phone ran a backup before it upgraded, and you can also do a restore. but the key is still to go to your itunes and sync back to your phone what you wanted there in the first place.

Scanning and Copying result in all black and lines. (with link to the scanned picture)
Whatever I try to scan and copy, even blank, the result is the same all black and full of lines.
Here is the link to the scanned picture. Copying also makes the same picture. https://www.dropbox.com/s/yaprfywbpf7cq70/scan0002.jpg?dl=0

I WAS INSTALLING THE IOS6 UPDATE ON MY I PHONE 4S AND THE SCREN TURNED BLACK NOW WE CANNOT GET IT TO COME ON OR DO ANYTHING ANY IDEA WHAT I NEED TO DO
you may put your device in dfu mode then connect it to itune ,after that there may be a message come up and say you have to restore your device. Restore your device to 5.1.1 then when you finish update it from itune not from your device directly.

Updated and back uped phone last night and now have lost all photos and aps. What happened
backed up phone last night and lost all aps, contacts, and photos. What happened
The phone was not restored from the backup.
Frankly, unless the user actually copies the pictures off the device to the computer, there is no guarantee they will return. They should return when restored from backup, but it's not a risk that most intelligent people are willing to take if the photos are considered valuable.
Apps may not be syncing due to the "Sync Apps" option being deselected. -
IPad fell down and now screen is all black!
Hello!
I'm using the iPad 2nd Generation and my daughter dropped it on the floor this morning. The screen turned black. I tried the hard reset (home + power off for 10 seconds) and it's still not working. I plugged it into the usb port of my computer and iTunes is recognising the iPad but it's asking me for the passcode before letting access. Thing is, I cannot see anything on the ipad.
Has anyone else had this issue? Thank you in advance for your input.The reboot, or reset as you tried, will sometimes bring the screen back but not always. If holding both the power and home buttons does not result in the apple logo appearing in about a minute, the device needs to be taken to the Apple store genius bar to have the technicians test and see if there is a failure in the screen/digitizer.

i went to put my Iphone on my computer but my boyfriend got his first on my apple and now i have all his stuff and i can't work out how i get all my stuff and information back. I have lost all my contacts, pictures and messages how do i retrieve them and not have my boyfriends information back
Your title asks "How do I get my iPhone information back on my (iPhone)?
You also said "I have yet to back it up." Therefore, all your information that had been on your iPhone is now gone.
Your iPhone has (and will continue to) been refreshed from iTunes. -

I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there. I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working. Please help.
I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version. I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again. I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again. My blue tooth doesn't work either. I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this. When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue. My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!! I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue. Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it. Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple. -
I changed my LCD last day and now i noticed all my pictures on my phone are gone. I tried to restore the back that I got yesterday but it wont let me because its telling me there is not enough space on my phone!!! That's wierd because I didn't download any app or anything else since my last backup and on the other hand about 3000 pictures are gone, how come there is not enough space left! I also check my usage on my phone and it shows that i have about 7.0 GB pictures!!! BUT my photos is empty! I want my picture back on my phone any solution anyone?
Thanks for your reply!
I just called the guy who changed my LCD and asked him what happend, he said there were no pictures on your phone when you gave it to me! i know he is lying tho!

WHen I first installed iOS 6 the App Store crashes...and now having iOS 6 for 2 weeks now, all my apps are buggy and now are crashing! Safari and built in apps are becoming slow and crash. I hate how apple leaves iPod touch 4g and iPhone 4 in the dark and basically force us to upgrade to newer devices. Apple could of done better with the update and needs to resolve these issues.
Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
The App store crashing is a known problem.

Hi.. My internet and wifi are working on samsung phone and hp laptop but its not getting connected to iphone ipad, only skype is coming online rest all apps and safari show no internet connection. Got new linksys router WRT160NL , but situation same. Tried reboot, renew lease, forget network, reset network setting. Pls advice
Have you tried a simple reset of your iPod to see if that helps? To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Otherwise, have you tried any of the troubleshooting mentioned in this Apple support document?
