No, we cannot help you.
Who knows maybe it's stolen/hacked/jailbroken/carrier locked, etc.

i purchased an album years ago on itunes and now iv bought a new laptop and want to put all my purchased music onto it, however it says iv only bought two songs off the one album. i know iv bought the whole album because ive got it on my iphone. how do i retrieve the rest of the songs without paying for them again?
Hello there Nihalith,
It sounds like you are trying to download a purchased album, but not all the tracks are listed as being purchased. If you still have the receipt that was emailed to you when you bought it, you can use it to report a problem with the purchase to the iTunes Store directly with this article:

Bought an iPhone off ebay and its stolen and locked on icloud at activation, what should i do?
Recently, my partner bought an iphone off ebay to find out it was stolen, no money can be recieved back so is there anything Apple or the community can recommend?
Sell it for parts, give bad feedback, file paypal or ebay claim, do better homework next time.
And the last one my favorite - spank him/her. -
I just bought mountain lion off the app store,but now I think I already have it. Is this possible? Would I be able to buy it if I already own it?

The App Store will permit you to purchase Mountain Lion regardless of whether your MacBook Pro already had it installed when it shipped from Apple.
If you bought Mountain Lion from the App Store, you will be able to install it on as many additional Macs as you may have. If you only have the one Mac and have no plans to acquire any others that did not ship with Mountain Lion, then there was no need to purchase another copy. -

How do you get you iphone off the screen where it says itunes
how do you get you iphone off the screen where it says itunes
Connect the phone to your computer using the usb cable provided with the phone and start itunes on the computer. It sounds like you have a pre iOS5 phone and it needs to be activated using itunes on your computer.

If I have not bought my iphone from the UAE,and my phone has Facetime,would the FaceTime work while I am in UAE?
FaceTime over cellular is dependent on your service provider. It should work over wifi, unless of course your ISP is blocking it.

I BOUGHT AN IPHONE 4 OFF A GUY IN THE STREET IT WAS WORKING FOR A WEEK OR TWO AND NOW I CANT MAKE OR RECIEVE CALLS WHAT SHUD I DO. PLZ HELP.
Did you sign up for a contract with AT&T? I assume so but had to ask.
And why in the world would you buy a phone from some guy on the street? Guys on the street are great if you want to buy a rock in a shrinkwrapped box or if you want something illegal or stolen but that's about it. Think of this problem as tuition. -

Hi
The Serial Number you've listed is not invalid. Enter it yourself here:

You'll see the warranty has expired. It would be a good idea if you took it to your nearest Apple Store and arrange to have it diagnosed.
HTH?

I BOUGHT AN IPHONE IN THE USA AND NOW I WANT TO USE IT IN EUROPE. HOW CAN I UNLOCK IT?
I BOUGHT AN IPHONE 4 IN AN APPLE STORE IN THE USA THAT IS LOCKED. HOW CAN I GET IT UNLOCKED TO USE IN EUROPE?
As far as I'm aware you can use your phone anywhere in the world. The phone is 'locked' to your network provider, so it is the SIM card that won't work in Europe. You need to contact your network provider and have global roaming added to your contract.

I BOUGHT AN IPHONE 5 THE PERSON FORGOT THE ICLOUD ITS AN OLD MAN SO IT HAS ICLOUD LOCK WHAT CAN I DO
I BOUGHT AN IPHONE 5 FROM OLD MAN HE FORGOT HIS APPLE ID N PAWORD O I DONT KNOW WHAT 2 DO??
If the person doesn't know the ID, they can try to find it as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5625. If they don’t know the password they can reset the password as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2617.
If they can't or won't do this, get your money back because the phone is useless to you without it. There is no way around this and no one else can help you. -
I just bought an iphone off craigslist
it had a clean esn or meid i checked it at verizon and also added my number to it and i talked to multiple people but when i got home and hard reset it through itunes it told me that someone else was signed in through icloud and that i couldnt use my id without contacting them but now i cant get an answer from the people i bought it from. am i screwed or???
Ouch. I hate when I hear from customers that they have bought a phone off of craigslist. There might be a way for you to get your money back, or even get the previous owner to unlock it for you (since they have nothing to gain from selling you a device that doesn't work unless they stole it, it's probably an honest mistake) for future used phone purchases, always go for EBay, if you simply must purchase a used phone from a stranger, because they have an excellent customer care system. And after purchasing a phone from anyone that is not an authorized reseller, get the phone checked out at an apple store IMMEDIATELY. When buying this sort of thing, you always want to be aware of your warranty situation. The previous user may have made unauthorized changes to the hardware, voiding the warranty and possibly having done shotty work. But anyways, my advice here is to always purchase from apple or a carrier, most carriers sell used phones and it's a lot easier to get your money back from them.

If i bought an iphone in the us would it work in the uk?!?
I'm traveling to the usa in June, if I bought an iphone 5 would it work when I bought it back to the UK (where I live) and would it Stoll be covered if anything went wrong, could I send it back to apple from the UK and things??
My friend did this with an iPad and I don't know if out was the three g version or just WiFi. It it worked fine in the UK I was just wondering if all the features and the apple store, phone calls texts and everything would still work. I would only be buying the . Is it still covered by warenty and stuff
Any help would be greatly appreciated I know its a lot of questions!!!!

UNLOCKED iPhone 5
The unlocked iPhone only works on supported GSM networks, such as AT&T in the U.S.
When you travel internationally, you can also use a micro-SIM card for iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S or a nano-SIM card for iPhone 5 from a local GSM carrier.
The unlocked iPhone will not work with CDMA carriers such as Verizon Wireless or Sprint. Limit two per customer

I was using find my iphone on my pc and i accidentally removed the device. I thought that meant just temporarily removing it since it was not able to locate or remote lock or wipe my lost phone. Now how do i put it back on? it appears to have ben permanently taken off the grid and now i cannot continue to try to locate my iphone. The phone did have find my iphone turned on. Can i put it back on>? i dont have the phone obviously its stolen.
At this point you can't do anything. But today, thieves are smart - they know how to combat the Find My iPhone service, so you probably wouldn't find the phone anyway. That service is primarily used for lost devices, less for stolen devices.
