Reboot computer. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both home and power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. This usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Click the Restore button of iTunes. If still problem, all iPhone 4S have full Warranty. Make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution.

My iPhone 4 shows the carrier name, I can go online with my data plan, but there are no bars and I can't make phone calls.
It worked for some time, less than a week, I made phone calls and all, and all of a sudden the problem mentioned above happened. Now I can't make any phone calls. I can go online with it, even with my Data plan, I can go to the app store (of course) but can't make any phone calls.
Please help, this is frustrating.Did you already try the troubleshooting mentioned here? http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/calls/
Also try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple lo comes up again. You will not lose any data doing this.

When I turn on my iPad the grey 'brightness slider' is in the centre of the screen and I can't get rid of it. I've tried switching on / off 'auto-brightness' in 'settings' but it won't go away. What am I doing wrong? Any advice gratefully received.
That folder with the question mark icon means that the MacBook can't find the boot directory. That can either mean it can't find the hard drive or the Operating System data on the hard drive is somehow corrupted.
Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
If it is then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've clicked on the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.
If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead. -
Not used my G5 Powermac (late 2004) for about 2 years. Was going to set it up for the lads to do school work.
However it only boots in with Installation disk, but colour dots on white screen and message comes up to reboot machine. However nothing happens apart from me keep trying. Also the numerous fans get louder and louder and louder.....
Any ideas folksCan you please provide details on the exact model?
For a start, the PRAM battery is likely dead. PRAM tells the computer which drive to start with, other basic information. Still, you can usually get the computer to start, though bad PRAM is unpredictable and could be stopping that.
Some computer models use software to control cooling fans. If there's no software commands they automatically go into high speed to prevent overheating. Your software obviously isn't loading, so runaway fans. -

iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software -
Hello... Please help me... how can i resolve this problem... please help... when i update this device then this is problem is shown and after update ios I could not use iphone for a single days...
See "What does iTunes back up?" here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946
That is what you will get back. You will lose other things (example, mail messages). -
can someone help me?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. -
Everything worked fine on my new ipad. After I upgraded to ios7 it still worked fine even if it looked very different. But Safari started acting strangely (it is starting the same thing on my iPhone 4s, too). Finally, it froze in state with no URL, no keyboard will come up, I can get Safari to close and start, but not actually function. I went into settings and deleted all the cookies, data, history, and so forth. Same state. I powered down the iPad and restarted. Same state. I tried a trick were I held down the button to bring up the power down stripe and then holding down the home button. Same state.
What can I do? Can I delete Safari and re-install it somehow? Should I take it to an Apple store?If powering down with hard reset (press and hold two buttons Power and home) will not give positive results follow that article

HT201210 My ipod shows a white screen and I can't restart it or put it on recovery mode
when I tried to upgrade to the iOS 6 it stopped and then when I tried to restart it, it turn white and now I can't restart it... it always go back to that white screen.
Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times. -
Okay, so I got an iPod touch, 4th gen, 32gb, brand new and running perfectly fine two years ago. Used it for about six months, lost it, and finally found it again a month ago tucked away in my recliner. It was as dead as a doornail, but I had it charged up and ready to go in a few hours.
So I wanted to get a special app for my iHome, as well as spend all of my accumulated iTunes cards that were previously useless due to the fact that I had lost my iPod for a year and a half. The app store said I had to update to the current software to download anything new, so I did just that about half an hour ago, updating to the latest version of iTunes and downloading the new software for my iPod like I was supposed to.
Only when I applied it to my iPod, it went into Recovery Mode as expected, but I can't restore it! I've made sure there's no extra USB attachments in it, my firewalls are currently down to get around this stupid thing (just turned them back on because it wasn't working), and feeling like I just let all this money slip down the drain.
If you have any relevant advice, please help! I'm running on Windows 7 with the current version of iTunes (64 bit). Help!Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com

What model Mini?
How to identify Mac mini models
If you have another Mac there are ways to use the other Mac to regain use of the "new" Mac.
Try booting to recovery and see if you can reinstall the OS:
OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support
Doing so depends upon the OS that was on the Mac before and what was done.
Otherwise you will need to boot from install disks.
You can call Apple 1-800-MY-APPLE
If you have a Mac with an Intel processor you can order Snow Leopard install disk here
and boot from it and format the disk and instll Snow Leopard. -

Tried to update my iPhone to the latest and Greatest iOS and it failed causing me to restore to factory settings. No biggie, I would just restore the backup just taken in iTunes, right. When I tried to Restore it asked me to enter a password then claims the password is incorrect. I have tried every password under the sun and then even changed the password through iTunes. Still gives same error. I really need my backup restored. Apple Support wants to charge me to help me with their product issue. Can anyone provide a solution here?
