IPhone 5S mic and Touch-ID do not work anymore - What to do?
Hi together and a happy new year to everyone!!
At the moment I have got a serious problem talking about my new iPhone 5s. As it's a cell phone I would like to talk to my friends and family using it. But it seems that this part of the devices is not working anymore as the mic doesn't record anything. If I try to call someone, they can't hear me while I can clearly listen to what they are trying to tell me. So I was wondering whether this is a "phone-app"-problem only or if the mic does not work at all. So I just use to start the "memo"-app, and: It doens't work either. I have no clue what's wrong with the iPhone.
I also tried the update to 7.0.4 and even the reset with the same iOS build, but nothing changed.
So what should I do?
Now, the second problem is that I cannot use Touch-ID anymore. It used to work without any problems but now I does not recognize my finger(s) anymore and I am not able to scan a new finger anymore...that's really annoying. - Tried the same staff here: Update and reset, but nothing changed.
Anyone here who experienced the same problem(s)? Any help or good advice?
Thanks a lot an a happy New Year's day to everyone of you guys out there!!
I have a same problem, and my iphone is the 4S!!!
When I turn on the phone speaker, the mic isn't working, after upgrade to ios 6....
Please help us!

i phones updated iso 8.01 all three phones will not connect to service provider and touch id
will not work APPLE HELP !!!!!!!!!
anyone know i fix as i have spent over 2000 pound on three phones that won't work
all three where working fine until the 8.01 updateApple just pulled the update because it is a major fubar! You will have to rollback your iPhone to the base iOS 8 using iTunes and Apple needs to seriously test its patches!
Update:
Simply connect your phone to iTunes and back up your data. Then, click the “Restore iPhone” button and follow the on-screen instructions. It’s a huge pain, but at least it’s better than having your shiny new iPhone turned into a big expensive iPod touch. -

A very good friend of mine dropped her iphone into water and now it is not working.Her husband recently passed away and text messages from him and from well wishers after his decease are feared lost. Is there any way to retrieve them?
I suggested contacting Compub in Nassau St as the info is priceless and worth the trouble of trying to regain?
Any thoughts? The poor lady is very distressIf she has backed up her iPhone she can replace that iPhone and set up the new iPhone from her backup.
You can put the iPhone that went into water into a plastic baggie with either new silica gel packets (preferred) or raw rice and let it sit for 4 - 5 days. After that time remove the phone and connect it to power for at least a half hour. While it is still connected to power reset it by holding down the power and hold button, wait for the Apple logo then let go of the buttons. Might take several tries. If it revives immediately back it up. -
I have recently upgraded from my iphone 5 to a new phone. My iphone 5 's touch screen does not work anymore. I need to backup my phone, but I can't do it on itunes without my password. Everything besides the screen is completely fine-the screen will not recognize my finger anymore. I am not trying to fix the phone, but I need to have my contacts. The pictures have already synced, but I need my password to do a full backup. Unfortunately, I can't type in my password. Is there any way around it? If I take my phone to the apple store, will they be able to help me? I am not willing to replace the screen just to do this, however, so that is out of the question.
Someone else may have a workaround, but, as far as I know, if you cannot interact with the screen on the iPhone, there is no way to unlock it so you can get to your contacts.
Were you saving them to iCloud by chance? If so, you can restore them to your new phone.

Actually, my iphone was hanged and its screen was not working at all .So, I updated its software from market but for reactivation it require icloud account but i didn't know how exactly it is and i was caught in big trouble . But i have its box and all other accessories .So , kindly help me as early as possible .Thankyou and tell me about its solution
<Email Edited by Host>Basic troubleshooting steps outline in the manual are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. Try each of these in order until the problem is resolved. If you've been through all these steps and the trouble persists, you'll need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation. Be sure to make an appointment first at the Genius Bar so you won't have a long wait.
Best

My on and off button is not working anymore and my iphone fell again today so the numbers 7,8,9 not working and so i cant enter my password to access my iphone. Pls, what can i do about this to access and change my password?
Changing your password won't help. It is a touchscreen so if 7,8,9 are not working then that part of the screen will not work if you were to get it unlocked.
TeeKnows is right. You need to contact Apple for a repair. -
My Hp Pavllion dv7 keyboard and touch pad will not work
Hi. My Hp Pavllion dv7 keyboard and touch pad will not work. Been going on for a few months now. Read in the support forum that replacing the battery might help however it hasnt. Ran updates for Windows Vista and Microsoft Security Ess. Boots up just fine however unable to place in my password to get to my user profile and always have to work from guest......unless I have a USB keyboard handly at the time. I use a USB wireless mouse as well.
Please help and thank youThe keyboard and mouse (touchpad) are separate devices which could go bad at the same time but that would be a huge coincidence. I would try reseating the ribbon cables to the motherboard for both. Here is the Service Manual:

Just updated my iPad with iOS 7 and now internet does not work anymore, how to fix if???? Desperate
Try resetting your iPad:
Double click the Home button. Slide up with one finger on ALL your apps to close them.
Then, Press the Sleep/Wake button + Home button and hold 15 seconds or until you see the Apple logo.
This will reset your device without erasing data, apps or settings. -
This update doesn't work! I'm at 10.5.8 on my old iMac G5, installed the update and brightness and volume just do not work. What next?
I have a brand new wireless keyboard... so it's never going to work. BUT... I found a sort of work round!
Since it's eyeTV that I want to control the volume more than the system volume I discovered cmd and up/down arrows do the job. I gess I'll forgo the brightness function.
I'm a little frustrated that it appears Apple seems to want to push me towards an upgrade of a perfectly serviceable iMac G5. I'll be keeping it to watch TV, surf the web, wordprocess and let the macbook pro handle photos & video. -

I spill all my coffee on my new MacBook Air, its not working anymore, what should i do ? I have to buy a new one coz its pricy to fix it.
Liquid spills, why your MacBook chassis is a one-way valve for spills
After a substantial spill many people will turn their notebook upside down and shake it, not only does this not work, but it spreads liquid havoc throughout your machine and makes things often as bad as possible.
The keyboard itself acts like a one way valve in the case of a substantial liquid spill. While liquid pours into the bottom chassis easy, it does not come out easily at all, and in the case of any spill, most of it will not come out by turning it upside down. Disconnect all power and contact Apple for diagnostics and repair.
Do not attempt to, after a spill, ‘dry out your MacBook’ and test it
After a spill most people invariably try to “dry out” their notebook by various methods, including hair dryers and otherwise. This both does not work, and after a substantial spill of any magnitude, even if the liquid was water, residue is left behind.
There are additionally many very tight places inside your notebook where liquids will linger for a very long time, and cause corrosion or worse.
Immediately unplug your notebook and contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and parts replacement.
In the case of very minor spills people will “dry out” their notebook and feel success that their notebook is working ok, however invariably in nearly all instances after 4-14 days an error / fault pops up and is usually followed by more.
In case of a spill, damage estimates are impossible,.....anything can be fixed, without question.......the question is cost.
contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and cost estimation ....possible parts replacement.
