IPhone 4 water damage - please help!
My iPhone 4S was dropped in a toilet with just toilet water for about a minute or less, it went completely black - I didn't have to turn it off. Now it is not turning on. It has been sitting in rice for about 8 hours. What do you think?
I think you would have been better off not trying to turn on the phone again for at least a few more days. It's most certainly fried now. But don't beat yourself up, even with putting the phone in dry rice or a dessicant for days, the chance of the phone working again are still negligible. Not zero, but I doubt even in the double digits.
In any case, you can bring your phone, and $199 to Apple for an out of warranty replacement.
Best,

Recent water damage, please help...
I recently dropped my ipod touch into water and now am trying desperately to find a way to get it to work. I let it sit in rice for about a day, but here is what's going on. When I press the home button a screen comes up with a pic of a USB cord and itunes at the end. When I connect it to my comp, itunes starts up and requires me to put in my passcode on my ipod to continue. I have no way of doing so. I cannot turn off my ipod either. I can tell how much battery life is left on it though. If anyone can think of a way to help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

i can't turn off find my ihone, always show "there was a problem when canceling the registration of this iphone with icloud" please help me. i can't restore my iphone before turn off find my iphone
If you are the original owner of the phone and know the Apple ID and password that were used to activate it originally, and if you have an existing backup to restore from, you can force it into recovery mode (which will completely erase it) and restore it as explained here: If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support. When you do you will encounter activation lock, and will have to provide the ID and password used to activate it originally in order to activate it again. If you can't, you won't be able to activate and use it.

my iphone 4 screen turns into blue, and i can't do anything because my power button is broken. How to fix my iphone back? Please help me
I am having the SAME exact problem! Except instead of lock button broken it's my home button so I can't do the whole "put in recovery mode" deal. My screen only says "tap the home button 3 times" and it has my screen locked until I hit the home button but since it is broken I can't get in my phone at all. I have all of my work info in my phone so I'm screwed and can't get any help. PLEASE let me know if you find a way around this...!!!
Thanks! -

HT1414 an error 1015 popped out and it stopped restoring my iphone 3g. Please help
error 1015 stopped restoring iphone 3g. Please help find solution here
This most often means that you previously hacked your phone to downgrade the iOS or jailbreak, and the modem baseband (firmware) was altered. In that case, SOL - there is no way to restore or update to a stock iOS again.
There are some "alternative" methods that will get the phone out of recovery mode and usable again, but it will remain in a hacked and unstable state. Google to find these.
"Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state." -

My emails are going through on my computer but not on my iPhone 5. Please HELP!
My emails are going through on my computer but not on my iPhone 5. Please HELP!
Go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars; select the account in question and check your settings. There are two separate settings for mail, incoming mail server for receiving mail, and SMTP for sending mail.
It could be that the mail process is stuck. Before doing as I said above, double-tap the home button to open the multi-tasking list. Locate the mail app and swipe upwards on the app thumbnail to force closed. Then do a reset on the phone, holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone reboots, then open the mail app and see if you receive your mail. If you receive an error message, make note of it and come back.
