Iphone won't do a thing!
Well it all started when trying to unlock my phone, I'd put in my passcode but none of the numbers would appear in the four boxes above but it would turn the key blue to show that I hit it. After that didn't work I tried restoring the iPhone, now it's stuck at the plain black screen that says Restore complete and I can't do anything, I can't even turn it off.
edit:
It just occurred to me that while plugged into the computer the iPhone isn't charging.

Well that could be a problem, the iPhone should always indicate that it's plugged in when it's connected to a computer. Even on my sub-mirco notebook, which has no extra power to charge the phone, the phone indicates that's it's plugged in and getting a charge.

My iphone won't allow me to transfer any music. A lot more problems follow in the below paragraph
Hello all,
I really appreciate any help and advice I can get.
First my iphone won't allow me to drag music over to it. I'm old school and I like to drag specific tracks over to my iphone. iTunes won't let me do that. I have tried creating a new playlist and syncing again but still I can't do that. Any help or ideas?
Also, I keep getting the message that "x number of items could not be synced. See iTunes for more information". What does this mean???? I read some where that clearing the photo cache can help. One problem, I CAN'T FIND THIS PHOTO CACHE!!!!! Where is this thing. I read that you need to click "go" on the iTunes menu. My menu doesn't say go. What's going on? How to i find the iphone photo cache and get rid of that annoying message?!?
Also, before I get to any of the stages above, sometimes during syncing on iTunes with my iPhone 4S, it keeps getting stuck at "waiting for changes to be applied". Once again, anyone have ideas about how I can overcome this?
Please I need someone to go on before I throw this phone into the thames.Is your iPhone restricted? Check Settings > General > Restrictions

Iphone won't connect to internet or send messages
My iPhone won't connect to the internet at all nor will it even send SMS messages. I've already tried resetting the network settings and that did not work. Are there any other solutions out there for this problem?
Thank you!Your right....I can't believe it. I disconnected my phone from my wifi. Shut it down and turned it back on. Sent myself an email message and on the 3G network phone picked up message immediately.
Now I am seeing if the 30 minute rule you had still applies here.
What a mess...but I gotta say, Love the phone, better battery, amazing screen, faster....just a few things that are really important going wrong! -
My iPhone won't stay connected to my wireless. I have to keep repowering my phone and then it lasts for a few minutes until I have to reboot again. Any ideas? Anyone experienced the same?
HI:
It does not sound like a battery problem.
Try a couple of things:
1. Reset the SMC

2. Reset (if you can) the PRAM
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
If that does not help, delete the mouse in system preferences, turn it off, restart, and turn the mouse back on.

P.S. I only needed it once, but I have an old USB mouse in case my Bluetooth one decides to quit. -
New iPhone won't synch Address Book groups with PowerPC G5
Last night I uploaded vCards into Address Book on G5, then organized them using Smart Groups. iPhone won't upload the groupings--so I'm left with 1,500 addresses in a flat file. That translates into too much flicking ;~}
This is certainly a major problem with the productivity of the iPhone. The Address book on the iPhone is lacking in some very important features. THere is absolutely no reason that the search ability that is required by the smart folders to work is not a part of the iPhone address book.
We have now had three updates to the phone and still the address book is not searchable. How can that be. When doing SMS you can start typing and it narrows down the address book options. Why can't the Address Book do the same thing? -
Hello:
My MacBook has learned what email is junk and what isn't, mostly, but my iPhone won't distinguish -- even after I have repeatedly moved said mail to the Junk folder. Is there a training step I've missed, or can't the iPhone be "taught" this maneuver? Apologies if this topic is already covered.
MedrenOne thing that might help.
The iphone does not have any type of junk mail filter.
In order to filter the mail on the iphone, you would need to set the filter preferences on the email server.
Most email servers have the ability to log into your account online and set email filters.
If you would like to leave feedback, this link might help out.

IPhone won't sync/mount in iTunes
I just noticed that my iPhone won't mount in iTunes. The iPhone makes the "i'm plugged in and charging" noise and shows the charging screen but never goes into sync mode.
I've rebooted the phone, laptop, and even tried two other cables still to no avail.
I'm also not sure if this happened after installing Snow Leopard because I only plug my iPhone into my laptop once a week and usually just walk away while it backs up and syncs.
Any suggestions? I can't even restore my iPhone.

Hi, I am wondering why my iphone won't send pictures through messages, I have MMS on and I have tried sending it with 3G on aswell and still doesn't work. Someone please help me :)
Hey lozza567,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues sending MMS messages. The following resource may provide a solution:
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
Issues with sending and receiving MMS
You will need these to send and receive MMS:
- An iPhone 3G or later.
- iOS 3.1 or later.
- A cellular data connection. MMS isn't available if you are using only Wi-Fi.
- A domestic MMS plan from your cellular provider. You may need an international messaging plan to send MMS to an international contact. Contact your carrier for more information.
- A roaming MMS when using a cellular provider's network different from your billing cellular provider's network. Learn more about roaming and contact your carrier for more information.
To resolve issues with sending and receiving MMS, follow these steps first
1. Go to Settings and turn airplane mode off.
2. Go to Settings > Messages and turn MMS Messaging on.
3. Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Cellular Data on.
4. Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Data Roaming on if you are roaming on a cellular provider network different from your billing provider's network.
5. Verify that you have a cellular data connection in the status bar at the top left of your iPhone.
6. Go to Settings and turn Wi-Fi off. Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify that you have a data connection. Turn Wi-Fi back on to continue using Wi-Fi for other features. If your cellular data connection isn't available, follow these steps.
7. Verify that you can send and receive SMS. If you are unable to send and receive SMS, see the "Issues with sending and receiving SMS" section, above.
8. MMS may not be available while on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports.
9. Restart your iPhone.
10. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
11. Reseat your SIM card.
If you are still unable to send or receive MMS, follow these steps
1. Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
2. Go to Settings > Messages and turn on group messaging if you are sending a group message.
3. Make sure that you are using the area code with the contact's phone number. When sending messages internationally, you also need the contact's international code.
4. Verify a "Pay as you go" MMS plan has enough available balance. Contact your carrier if unsure of your MMS plan or available balance.
5. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
6. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and re-create the contact from the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
7. Back up and restore your iPhone as new.
8. If your carrier has recently ported your phone number, the porting process may not be complete. Contact your carrier to confirm that the porting process is complete.
9. Contact your carrier to verify that you are provisioned to send SMS and are in an area with cellular coverage.
10. Contact your carrier to verify that there are no blocks or filters placed on your wireless account preventing you from sending SMS.
11. Your carrier may require APN settings to be modified to use MMS. Learn more about when you should adjust APN settings.
Thanks,

HT1918 My iPhone won't let me download or update anything???
My iPhone won't let me download or update any apps, just keeps going to my account pages, asks me to put in my card details then says there's a problem or it's declined even when I try to download or update free apps, I have had the day Apple ID and card details since I brought phone????? Have spoken to Apple they don't help!!
What sort of card is it, debit or credit ? If it's a debit card then I don't think that they are still accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts about them being declined.
If it's a credit card then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support again : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management -
I want to sync my I phone user name (my current e-mail address) with my iPad, PC user name (old e-mail address.) If I delete that current address in the iPhone, won't I also be deleting it in my other devices? They are synced. I don't want to lose it. I just want to get it out of the way on my iphone so it doesn't confuse the transfer of ID names and then I want it back again.. I tried deleting the cloud account, being told the current e-mails would be spared. But all it did was pop up a prompt asking me for the password to my still current email ID. So I assume now that I have to go to mail and get rid of the e-mail account. But I'm scared I'll lose everything in my other devices too.
You can change the email address you use as your apple ID. this doesn't mean you have to delete the old email address as email.
When you delete an email from your device, it is only removed from the device, it does not delete your emails or the email account. -
