Iphone 4s completely shot
I have been trying to charge my phone all day, but it would not take any kind of charge. I have tried everything.
It was been charging for 4 hours now, and it powered down when I put it on the charger. Since then, I have not been able to get it back on. I have literally tried everything but throwing it off the wall. I held the power and home button for a minute. no success. tried connecting to itunes. not recognized. I have followed each and every step on forums with no success.
Does not sound good. Mine is going off when approx. 20%... and have an apple appointment this weekend.
Speaking to Apple over the phone they recommended I flash the phone placing it in "recovery mode", have you tried this too?

Is my iphone 4 battery shot or is it a software problem?
There are probably hundreds of questions like this, but I couldn't find any answers.
A few days ago my iphone 4 suddenly shut off. The battery wasn't full, but it wasn't empty. It had about 40%.
I pressed the power button, the apple logo appeared, and then rebooted again multiple times.
So, I tried holding down the home and power buttons as suggested by others.
After doing that nothing happened. I waited for a while and tried again. It said I had to connect to Itunes.
I do that, restore, and backup my phone. I unplug the charger and it just shots off.
I then have to connect to Itunes and restore it all over again.
Sometimes it won't show the connect to Itunes message. Sometimes it brings up the lock screen asking me to reconfigure the phone as if it were new or it brings up my backedup settings.
So, if I'm finally able to get to the lock screen it will show the battery icon(not the one at the top right) as completely empty, completely full, or with a little bit of red in it. The battery icon at the top right will show 1% or fully charged.
Another problem that I'm having is my phone won't shut off. I hold down the power button and slide to turn it off, but if my phone is still plugged in, the apple logo appears and tells me to restore again.
If my battery is low, it should show the battery icon telling me to charge it. But, that doesn't appear anymore. It justs boots up.
I'm positive nothing is wrong with my dock. I've tried other chargers and other computers too.
If my battery were completely shot, the phone shouldn't even start when plugged in. So now I think there's a software issue messing with my phone.
Also, I read that if the phone shows the fully charged icon constantly, it should be serviced.
Maybe I missed them, but I haven't found a thread similar to the problems I have. I probably should just get it serviced, but if I could avoid the trip that would be great. My phone isn't Jailbroken if anyone is wondering.
Any help is greatly appreciated!Please correct your porfile: iPhone 4 do not have IOS 6.1.4.
The usual troubleshooting steps are, also remember to test it after every step:
1. Restart
2. Reset
3. Restore from backup
4. Restore as new.
If no joy, make an Appointment with the Apple genius and have them evaluate -
While playing a game my iphone went completely frozen, it does not respond to any input, not even to holding down the on/off hey. Any ideas?
Try a reset. That is holding the sleep/wake and home button together until you see the Apple logo and release. That will reset the iPhone, but will not affect your data.
Thanks! It worked just fine!

Since installing iCloud, my iPhone 3GS no longer syncs with my Outlook2010 Calendar and Outlook2010 Contacts. I don't know what else to try, short of resetting the iPhone and completely reloading as a new device. Any ideas, anyone?
It's good to know. The Apple instructions for loading iCloud on a PC just seem to have either overlooked or hidden this limit. The larger problem is that it partially works: partially and erratically. So clean-up is great fun.

MY iPhone is completely frozen. I did a hardest and finally after 10 times it came up with the iTunes logo with a plug-in sign. It is still frozen.
WHat should I do.
MErmaidYou're not alone. I am having similar problems with my Ipod 5th gen 30gb.
When I connect it to my laptop (Vista - basic) it is not recognised by itunes. Itunes simply locks up.
So far I have tried the following to no avail:
Checked my pc's device manager - it recognises the device and says it is functioning properly.
Checked the drivers to make sure they are upt to date.
Uninstalled & reinstalled a previous version of itunes (as it worked fine before the latest release).
Reinstalled the latest itunes.
Reset the ipod.
Put the ipod into disk mode and reconnected to itunes.
Have tried to use the windows tool to scan and fix any bad sectors but it fails to complete a scan without locking that up as well.
Placed into disk mode when fully charged and then allowed the battery to drain completely. Then reconnected ipod (in disk mode)and it still is not recognised and locks up itunes.
At this point I dont really want to part with another $300 odd dollars for a new one. -
Music loaded onto iphone has completely stripped my iPhone and replaced it with my husbands setup

Can this corrected.
You can manage your email accounts in
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars
However, you should still get all of your emails, contacts and calendars on your @icloud.com email account just as you do on your @me.com account.
But if not, you can add and remove accounts listed above. -
Ref: iphone 3G. I was visiting the US last week. My iphone battery completely drained overnight. I re-charged it but ever since it has either come up with a message saying it's registering or saying I need to register it. I'm concerned that if I re-register it on itunes I'll lose all my data. I originally registered it a couple of years or so back, when it was new. Any advice much appreciated.
Thank you for quick reply. The data is still there - every so often when I switch it on, it comes up with the main icon screen, rather than the emegency calls only screen (which it does most of the time), and I can get to my contacts, photos, and so on, but it won't connect to any mobile/cell network provider, including my network here in the UK - O2.

Can someone help please..? After down loading to the latest software verssion 5.0. My iPhone went completely dead. Can't swith on any more. What can I do?
Hi, thank you very much for your reply. No my phone was never been jailbreak-ed. Never been dropped in water or in any wet surface. Dropped on the floor while texting yes, but it was just a one time incident, last year august i can clearly remember, but after that no more (phone still works fine even after.) restored the phone again earlier, but problem still occured. Will try to go to Apple also to ask and have it checked. Just worried because my phone is already out of warranty. Will keep you posted. Again, thanks. If you have any more advice just let me know. It would mean a lot.
Cheers,

Connect iPhone to Wall Charger for 10 minutes, it may turn ON itself. If still nothing, keep on Charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to respond.

Has anyone compared video shot with an iPhone to that shot with an iPad Touch, and edited on an iPad with iMovie?
What was the results? Is the iPhones camera significantly better than an iPod Touch for video?
Thanks,
HalYes. The iPhone camera is superior.

trying to restore from iTunes back onto iPhone 5 - it starts but then error msg comes up saying there is not enough space on the iPhone to complete the restore - what do I do? - Help cos I've lost my contacts!!!!!
If you're not a developer then you really should not have upgraded.
I'm unsure how you can fix this as you have already done a back-up on iOS 7 and apple don't support firmware downgrades. -

So, since I got my iPhone 4s last December, it sometimes keeps freezing after long phonecalls. It might do it once or twice a month. It wasnt too regular to worry about it as it normally sorted itself out, as I would just wipe the screen clean and lock it and unlock it a few times using the button on the top of the phone and it would unfreeze without any problems.
Tonight though after being on the phone for around 45 minutes, my phone completly freezes and I can't get it unlocked at all. I cant get into my phone to do anything as I can't swipe it to unlock or turn off.
I have tried to reboot (where you press the lock and the home button until you see the apple logo) a number of times and I have even restored my phone to factory settings but neither thing has worked.
My iPhone is completly up to date (ios 6.0.1) as is my iTunes. My phone is just over a year old too, and no other problems with it. No cracks, knicks or scrapes on it either. It's very well looked after. I have done everything as instructed on the support page and have looked through numerous threads and forums but no suggestion has seemed to help or resolve the issue.
Unfortunatly I don't live near any apple store either so genius bar is a last resort for me.
Any help or suggestions would be really appriciated.
