IPhone 5 died even though it was at 60 % battery

This is what happened: I charged the phone before I left, and it was at 60 %. I hung out with some friends for a few hours, without using my phone. Then as I was walking home, I started listening to some music, and took a couple of photos with the iPhone camera. Two minutes later and the phone just died on me. I have no idea what happened. The music just stopped, it went black, and the charging symbol started showing. I tried to click on the start button, the restart button etc, but nothing was working. When I got home, I connected it to my Macbook Pro for charging, and it worked. It said the battery was at 60 %, and basically confirmed that the iPhone wasn't dead after all.
What is going on? Can someone please help me with this.. do I need a new battery?

Could be a defective battery, you should get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or Apple Store next to your place.

Iphone 4 just turned itself off, won't turn on again - sleep/wake button hasn't worked for a while - tried charging (even though it was 50% charged when it shut down) and that makes no difference....tried usb to computer and directo to wall socket. help?

Any suggestions...other than heading off to the genius bar tomorrow?

Well, the sleep/wake button is also the power button. If you cannot use it to turn on, then you cannot use it to perform a reset by holding it and the home button together until you see the Apple logo.Those are the only two ways to turn the device on. You can try letting the battery go completely dead and then trying to plug it in. After it has charged for 20-30 minutes, the device may come back on. But, without the sleep/wake button, there is no other way to turn the device on or off.

The lates iTunes (10.5) requires Mac OS 10.5.8 or higher. You appear to be running 10.4.X. You will need to upgrade your Mac OS.

When i send an imessage to another person with imessage, my husband also receives the message, even though it was not sent to him. We have always been on the same itunes account and not had this problem, however, when i added the ipad, this started.

When I send an imessage on my ipad to someone, my husband also gets the message, even though he was not selected as a receipient. This just started when I got my ipad and sent a message for the first time. As a side note, my daughter received an itouch and both my husband and i were getting all messages she sent, no matter which one of us they were sent to. I turned her imessage off. We have all of our devices under the same itunes account so that we can share all music and apps. How can we get around this? I do not want him receiving all imessages that I send, this will get very annoying to him.

You can have a separate AppleID only for iMessage and keep using the other one for iTunes.
Just change the AppleID used for iMessage in Settings > Messages > Receive At

I have an iPhone 4s that is no longer active on my account. I recently upgraded it after completing a 2-year contract. Is it still possible for me to have the iPhone 4s unlocked even though it is no longer active on my account?

Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.)

Thanks for getting back. Hadn't got round to re uploading the amended feed. I just did it now.
The only thing is, Feed Validator doesn't like it because of the picture size, and a couple of other things, it reeds the following:

On yosemite - update itunes 12.1.2 notification appears repeatedly even though it was updated.

on yosemite - am notified every few days to update itunes 12.1.2 even though it was updated.
No indication that previous updates failed.
Update has the same version number and the same description.
I see it also listed as a previous update.

Actually, I found other posts implicating Spotlight (which may be finding and referring to a copy of iTunes.app it found elsewhere, even if that copy is no longer around). Trying the re-indexing (forcing re-indexing is the proposed solution) now.
Interestingly, the command sudo mdutil -E on its own didn't seem to get Spotlight to dump its index and start re-indexing. It took adding the root path like this: sudo mdutil -E /
Update
Strangely, other apps started showing up in Spotlight searches after only a few seconds. After a few minutes into the indexing, any app I'd try would show up, but iTunes still wouldn't. On the command line, I entered:
mdimport /Applications/iTunes.app
This command forces Spotlight to index (import the metadata of) the specified target. I then tried the search again and it found it right away. Refreshed App Store's Updates page and iTunes remained. I'll wait until the indexing is done then restart and see if that helps.

Siri is available only on the iPhone 4s. iOS6 does not "add" Siri to an iPhone 4.

TS1424 I've just downloaded an album and at least two tracks are incomplete, even though there was no error in downloading

I've just downloaded an album and at least two tracks are incomplete, even though there was no error in downloading reported.

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) have you tried deleting them from your iTunes library and redownloading them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes ? Re-downloading.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.
