You'll very likely need iTunes. But you might as well try a reset since you're out of town.
Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds. Hopefully you will see an Apple logo and then some progress.

I tried to update my phone and it ended up going into recovery mode. now my phone is locked bc i dont remember my old apple ID security questions, nor does the email exsist anymore. is there anyway i can unlock my phone myself or do i have to go to apple?

-If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com. Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE: This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
-If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address. Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466 (If you are in the US), and ask for account security. You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

Hi All can anyone help me, I have a Iphone 4s and I'm currently recieving nuisance calls via a blocked number is there anyway I can stop my phone accepting blocked numbers? Cheers

Hi all I'm Currently recieving Nuisance Calls via a Blocked number is there anyway I can stop my Iphone accepting Blocked Numbers? Thanks

There is a way! I'm very happy to share this and hope it helps those who find themselves plagued, as I was.
I have been getting nuisance calls for months from some muppet, who hides his phone number before he calls at 3am. I need to keep my phone on, in case any of my immediate family have an emergency. I'm sure many have the same problem, just turning off the phone is not an option. I have been to two or three shops to ask the experts and none could offer me a solution. I was on the verge of tring to jailbreak my phone or even get rid of it to get an andriod one...That's how bad things had become.
Anyway, this is my solution, which I found by trawling through page after page on the internet, for ages and trying various other solutions first. I have an iPhone 4S and the operating system is 6.1.3 and I am in the UK, on Orange, or EE as we should now call it. I cannot promise it will help everyone, but it works for me.
Go to Settings, Do Not Disturb and switch this on. Underneath here, go to Notifications, then Do Not Disturb again. Then Scheduled and set the times you want the restrictions to start and end. For example, I use 7pm to 8am, so that I know I won't get nuisance calls during this period, but whatever times work for you. Underneath, it says Allow calls from and you can select your favourites. If you haven't saved any of your contacts as Favourites, do so, it's very easy. Just go to contacts, open one and underneath the number there is a button to Add to favourites. Repeat for all close friends and family you want to be able to reach you at any time. All your favourites should be allowed to call. I think you can have 50 numbers in the favourites. But any unknown caller should be simply sent to voicemail.
Apple have had some previous issues with the Do Not Disturb feature and to be honest this didnt work 100% of the time for me. If you find the same, don't give up. I suggest you do as I did at this point and use an app called Call Bliss, which seems to have cracked it. (I have NO connection to them and it's no skin off my nose if you use this app or not). There may be other apps that do the same, or even better for all I know. You have a free one day trial then it's £3 if you want to continue to use it. For me, £3 to solve the problem was money very well spent. If you need this app, download it, then do as suggested above to the point where it says Allow calls from and this time you select Bliss Exceptions. Follow the instructions in the app.
There are two modes, I use suppress mode, which allows all calls to get through except those from unknown callers and those specified by you. I believe the other mode blocks all calls, except those you specify. Please note, the app only works when the iPhone is locked. Your lock might come on after the phone is not used for 5 minutes or so, or you can lock the phone by single clicking the on/off button (not holding it down).
I hope this helps anyone as much as it has done me.

Is there anyway i can sync my phone to a new computer without loosing everything?

i have been given an apple laptop but i want to connect my iphone 4s to it is there anyway i can connect it to itunes without loosing everything spesh my music?

Yes. Put your old iTunes library to which you previously synced the phone on the new computer.
Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

How do I type # on a uk keyboard, when I type option+3 I am taken to desktop 3. Is there anyway I can turn this off?

I am sorry that this may be a stupid question. I am using 10.7, lion.

I do not want to type "£", i want to type "#". Shift+3 = "£" option+3 changes me to desktop 3 insead of typing a "#". When i show the keyboard viewer and hold option it shows that by typing 3 i will type a "#", but i do not, instead i am taken to desktop 3. Is there anyway i can prevent this and make sure i type a "#".

HT201263 I forgot my passcode to iphone 4s. I entered wrong and now it says, disabled connect to itunes. I have some VERY important information on the phone and it was not backed up. Is there anyway I can unlock my phone and not lose my information?

I locked my iphone 4s, I forgot the passcode and it says disabled connect to itunes. I have some very important information on the phone I can't lose, How can I retrieve that information if the phone was not backed up to icloud of my mac? I will go to court over this to prove it is my phone. I just can't lose this information. Please, Please, Please, help me. I will mail the phone in to apple store if that will help.

You can't. If your phone is disabled, the data has already been erased...that's the whole point of the passcode. Your only option now is:
Turn your phone off, then force it into recovery mode & restore it:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.

I purchased a phone 4s from O2 uk and I am currently living in Ireland. I am with O2 ireland but the sim is not accepted in the phone. I will not be in England for at least a year, is there anyway I can unlock the phone?

O2 uk will not unlock the phone for me as I do not have a UK phone number anymore! Is there any other way or have I now got a phone which is worth nothing!

However O2 do unlock UK iPhones
Their webpage covering this is down and has been for several days
This thread has been running on the O2 forum and you may find it has a solution
You have to able to get to the North and you will effectively be on the UK network where you can get the iPhone unlocked with a bit of effort

Is there anyway I can make my new laptop my default iTunes laptop rather than my old laptop and having to use Home Sharing?

I don't really want to re-upload my CD's to my new laptop and my old laptop is practically dead

You will need to copy everything from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

Iphone 4s got stolen, is there anyway I can track it down with my IMEI/MEID

my iphone4s got stolen, is there anyway I can track it down with my IMEI/MEID,

IF you enabled "Find My iPhone" prior to it being lost/stolen, you can track it at iCloud.com.
Report it to law enforcement and the carrier.

Welcome to the Apple community Jack.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple IDand that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

I have a new sound bar that I plug my phone into through the headphone jack. I also have a bluetooth speaker that I want to play through as well. Is there anyway I can play to both devices at once?

I have a speaker that I am connecting through my headphone jack but I have a bluetooth speaker in another room that I want to play through as well. Is there anyway I can play to both speakers at once? I saw another post on line that suggested going to the Audio MIDI setup and adding additional output devices. The problem is, I see that on my computer but nothing for my iphone. Can this work? I have also seen things for airplay and of course this is all making my mind fuzzy. Help!

Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac. You should be able to set a password for it. Save it. Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer, I suppose, back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity. As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
This handy article from Apple explains how
How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine and go for it. You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups of your stuff.

PLEASE HELP I lost my phone. My new SIM is here. I also have a new laptop that my old phone was never connected to. Is there anyway I can retrieve my old contacts?

Please help. I lost my i phone 4 and have now received my new SIM. My friend has kindly lent me her old i phone 3 until I get another phone. The problem is that I got a new laptop at Christmas and never connected my old phone to it before I lost it.
Ive downloaded i tunes onto the new laptop and connected the i phone 3 but all the info from my old phone is not there (numbers, music etc)
Is there anyway I can retrieve the info and transfer it to the i p hone 3?

Look. It doesn't matter how many times you repeat yourself. The answer is the same. The only way you're going to find it is by getting up off your backside and looking for it. Why you're so concerned, I'm not sure. If you find it, you will just have to turn it (or the replacement) over to the insurance company. Unless it's your intent to commit fraud...

HT1212 Is there anyway I can save my photos before I restore my phone? I have looked myself out putting in too many passwords !

Is there anyway I can save my photos before I restore my phone? I have locked myself out putting in too many passwords ! Thanks

It's too late for that now.
IF you had PhotoStream turned on, they may have already uploaded... though you will only find the last 30 days/1000 photos there after you restore.
