IPhone major reset problem. PLEASE HELP

Hello
After trying to update to ios 8 I got into a recovery loop. So I updated/reset the phone with my computer. After that i got onto my phone and did all the stuff, then it said my phone was linked to an emial that wasnt even mine! I think I cant do anything about it. I have a Iphone 5C.
Thanks!!! <3

cjkeith, you've every right to be frustrated, but now you're coming across as well, let's just say "unsmart".
First, what on earth does paying 500.00 for a phone and thousands of dollars in other apple products have to do with anything?
Second, do you think any of us care about your idle threat to save your money and buy a non-Apple product?
Third, and what makes you seem the most "unsmart" is your last statement. We're not Apple here on this user to user technical support forum. We're users just like you! So your last statement is just so ridiculous.
It's always easier to place the blame for our own misfortunes on someone else, rather than take responsibility for our own action. As Dr. Al stated, you learned a lesson the hard way.
Time to move on.

Major Nano Problem - Please Help

I have a 1 GB iPod Nano that worked fine when I got it in May 2006. Now, however I have a major problem. I put my iPod on the computer to charge through USB and when it was finished I could not safely remove. Actually, the iPod was not recognized by my computer or iTunes at all and the screen keeps flashing the apple logo and will not turn off until the battery runs down.
Here is what I did to try and fix. Reset and restore. I also tried to put the iPod in disc mode. When I put in disc mode my computer recognizes the iPod and it is shown in iTunes but when I safely remove, the iPod remains in disc mode and I can't get out of disc mode unless I reset and then I am dealing with the flashing appe logo again.
Could someone please help!
Windows XP

I'm thinking that the nano is the cause of the problem and so i "think" tou showld send it back for the cost of it and buy a new 2 gig one.

Major iTunes problems- please help

Okay people, here's a good one for you. On my desktop I have the latest iTunes version, software, and all that jazz. When I hook up my 60GB iPod or my 40GB iPod iTunes locks up and refuses to sync my iPod. I have had this problem for quite a while now. Anyone have any suggestions? Now I have another problem. Since I cannot use my desktop I backed up my 11GB library to 3 DVDs so I can transfer my library to my Sony Vaio laptop. On that laptop I uninstalled iTunes from the C drive and installed the latest 7.3 iTunes on the D drive so I would have enough space. I finished restoring the first disc and then put in the second. A message popped up saying there was not enough room on the C drive for all of the music. What in the ****? I installed on the D drive! So then I looked at the shortcut icon's properties it said it was located on the C drive. I then did the 'explore' thing and it said iTunes was on the D drive. So according to the laptop iTunes is in two different places. Does anybody know what the **** is going on and can you please help me?

intel core 2 duo Windows Vista

Alright, so on my laptop I got my library to work on the D drive, but guess what. My 40GB iPod won't be recognized by the computer or iTunes but i don't really care about that iPod. My 60GB iPod is recognized somewhat but iTunes says something like "the iPod cannot be read... blah blah blah... you should restore your iPod." I am to the point of refusing to restore my iPod because I did that a few weeks ago for my desktop computer and I had to wait a full 36 hours for another non-Apple program to recover the data on my iPod because iTunes wouldn't sink it. No wonder I don't want to restore my iPod. Please someone help me!

IPhone 4S Wifi Problem (Please Help !!)

The WiFi on my iPhone 4S has been working perfectly fine until today. It is now greyed out and dim as if disabled, so I can't even access it anymore.
I have tried resetting network settings, toggling cellular data and airplane mode, hard reset, and restoring my phone, but it unfortunately does not do the trick.
Any help and thoughts would be very appreciated. Thanks!

tried it mate, now the thing is, my wifi button is not grayed but it can not find the wifi signal ! sometimes it can, and then it looses the signal ! so in my opinion, there should be some solution or patch for it coz if it has a hardware issue then it stays as grayed but now it's not ! so yea waiting to have some solution for it. Thanks though really appreciated !

IPhone wifi-network problem- Please Help!

I have a problem with my iPhone4. It could only connect to the internet for a couple of minute then it dropped off. But it is still connect to the wifi though and in my Mac the wifi seem to be working fine. Any ideas?

first start here
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/wifi/
If that doesn't help then
Restore as new, if wifi works add your backup and proceed .If after backup issue returns
Then you have a corrupt backup
If when restored as new no wifi then you probably have hardware issue and should take it to an Apple Store genius bar

IPhone Application Update Problem -- Please Help

So I downloaded the application Aurora Feint. Synced it to my iPhone and all was well. Then apparently there was an update. Instead of logging onto iTunes and updating it that way, I decided to try out the Application Store update feature on the iPhone itself. The problem is that the feature won't work for programs later than 10MB. (Aurora Feint is 20+MB.) So now I'm left with an unusable Aurora Feint update icon on my screen that is just taking up space.
I tried holding down the icons so I could just click the X to get rid of it. Problem is the update icon has no X. Then I tried syncing my phone via iTunes and telling it to remove the AF application. Supposedly it did. But when I disconnected the phone, the AF update icon is still there.
Can someone please tell me how to get rid of the blood thing?

If all else fails, first remove the app from iTunes (delete it), then do a restore of the iPhone. It should be gone after the restore.

IPhone 6 FaceTime problem, please help!

Iphone 5 Reboot problem please help?!!

Last night i turned off my iphone 5 and when i woke up i tried to boot it up. It didn't work. I pressed the home button and power button mutiple times and just right when i got the charger and plug it in the usb without the other end in yet it turned on. Should i be worried?

Double click the home button and find out what apps are running in the background. Then hold them down until they start to shake and click the minus sign until no apps are actively running. Also, turn push notifications off and see if that changes anything. I hope this helps!

IPhone 3Gs OS6 problem, please help.

I woke up this morning and my iPhone screen said OS6 then "connect to iTunes". It had an image of a USB plug with an arrow pointing to an iTunes icon. It won't let me do anything. I am almost annoyed!!!! I did NOT request the update. All APPs were up to date before I went to sleep. I dragged out the computer, plugged in thw phone and WHAT does ITunes say? It tells me that my phone doesn't have the correct version of iTunes. I have no idea what version it has because I can't do anything with it. If I press the button at the bottom of the screen I get 3 options, Emergency call, Start Over, Cancel, none of which are even remotely helpful. Is there a fix?

Hi twainy88,
It sounds like your iPhone may have placed itself in Recovery mode due to an issue with an update. The following article has more information and steps for how to restore from a backup:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
Notes:
In certain situations, an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch will automatically go into recovery mode after an update or restore issue. If your device is already in recovery mode, you can attempt to restore using iTunes.

Toshiba P305 major hardware problems PLease help

I have a satellite p305. The headphone jack stopped working and the touchpad and click buttons stopped working. I tried updating drivers but nothing changed. The other problem was whenever you had to programs open that produce sound (windows media player and a you tube video or similar) The audio came out staticky. This is not when trying to listen to both players at the same time, one is paused. But if you have both of them open one will be staticky. I tore the computer down to see if there was anything visually wrong with it at the headphone jack or where the click butons and touch pad plug in but found nothing. I put the motherboard back in and put it all back together and plugged it in and pressed the power button. The buttons light up and i think either the hard drive or fan spun but nothing else happened after that. Im thinking bad MOBO but i need some advise because this is a computer that i am working on for someone else and really dont want the whole you broke my computer game to be played.

This is one problem within the DirectX 9.0b:
Please take a good look at this update for Microsoft DirectX v9.0b:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=8dfd1b6d-e177-4a0e-91d0-b4310675b02b&DisplayLang=en
Possible Issue Description:
- TV-Tuner card cannot keep TV-Tuner settings in memory;
- TV-Tuner card cannot be initialized in system after installing DirectX v9.0b;
- TV-Tuner card cannot capture any picture;
Official Microsoft Information:
DirectX 9.0b was released on 7/23/03 to address the MIDI security issue identified in bulletin MS03-030. A small number of non-security fixes were also included in the release. One of these fixes caused several TV Tuner capture card/driver combinations using video formats other than NTSC (NTSC-J, PAL, SECAM) to no longer initialize correctly on Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003. Symptoms include loss of capture functionality and potential inability to set/retain device capture settings. This hotfix, documented further in Knowledge Base article 825116, has been issued to correct the flaw.
I believe that your SB card is sharing IRQs with your Firewire hardwares thus causing errors.

Iphone 4s battery problems PLEASE HELP

I got my 4s about a week ago. The first couple of days i noticed the battery would go down pretty quick. So i looked online and seen all these different ways to save battery life by switching the settings around. I did all of the recommended changes ( location, brightness, etc.) i had already charged the phone the same way i would charge any phone before i read the full discharge full recharge. I did that two nights in a row and since then i let it get to atleast 2% before i charge it. Last night i put it on the charger around 20% maybe a little more and it definatley overcharged for an hour or two before i took it off. When i go to work i leave it in my locker and go on it during breaks. Normally it would never change the % while on standby and it would go down 1 maybe 2% while i use it. Today by the time it was lunch break it was down to 80%. As i type this my battery is at 64% with 2 hours and 31 minutes usage and 16 hours, 5 minutes of standby.
What happened to it? It bothers me so much cause i love the phone and it was doing good until today.
I JUST NOTICED that there is a new software update iOS 5.1.1. Could this sudden battery problem have occured because i am running older software??!!

You've probabaly just installed and left running more applications. Applications dont entirely close when you hit the home screen. You've probabaly notice when you turn on your phone you have to wait through the loading screen for many applications. After that they sit on the memory of the phone, and the phone uses some battery retaining the state of each application. In Stand-By and still when powered down, your battery will slowly drain (less so when powered down).
You may want to start force closing apps or occasionally powering down your iPhone. Additionally, the battery is not a NiCad battery where you can't charge it when it's at 80% or you'll risk causing the "battery memory" to max at 80%. The iPhone batteries are fine to be charged when they're at 95%. That said, Apple does recommend dispersing the battery to 0% atleast once a month. These batteries do have a battery charge cycle, ie: after so many charges the drain will begin to occur, but it's alot better than say your R/C car battery, or your typical rechargable triple 'A' battery.
On another note, I do recommend you run the latest updates, if there ever is a battery issue and they know about it, they'll try to address the issue.

IPhone 4S sound problem please help?!

I have a 4s and updated to ios7 when it came out. Today my phone has no audio apart from ringtone. The volume bar for example is not available in you tube. The buttons when pressed to adjust sound do not show no volume increase or decrease. The speakers work as I can adjust ringtone in settings and can hear it loud and clear. Is this a bug from the update?

Hello Leoner777,
I would be concerned too if the speaker on my iPhone was not working. I found an article with some steps to take when you are experiencing issues like this:
iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speaker

IPhone 3G, updating problem - please help!

i have installed the latest iphone software onto my 3G but when i download apps it says I haven't got the latest iphone software.. what shall i do?!
Also can I get ios 5?

The last version of iOS to be supported is 4.2.1. If apps require something higher, you will not be able to use them. The only way around this is to buy a new phone. You can NOT install iOS 5 on an iPhone 3G.
