I am assuming the phone was working prior to you installing IOS 6? Did you use itunes to install IOS 6 or just run from the phone?
When I tried to do the Over The Air update to IOS6 on my iPhone 4, it errored out and I had to connect it to iTunes and select "Restore" from the summary screen after iTunes finds the phone is connected. If this works for you, it will go through a couple of reboots that take a few minutes to complete. It should then give you the option to start with a fresh new phone or to use one of your previous backups to load your contacts and other information, provided you have backed up the phone previously.
I hope this helps you my friend!

Just upgraded and iPhoto said it has to upgrade library but keeps freezing. Have tried it too many times now and I need those photos ASAP HELP!!

Just upgraded and iPhoto said it has to upgrade library but keeps freezing. Have tried it too many times now and I need those photos ASAP HELP!!

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

When screen goes black,It's blurry behind at both ends and also a line behind the screen?

when my scrren goes black,behind it on both sides is blurry and also a line going through it?

You may be seeing some light leakage from the backlit display; some bleeding is likely normal if not too intense. A line going through it would seem to be faulty pixels or a screen fault and is not normal. If the device is covered by your warranty, I would take it to an Apple Retail Store or Apple Reseller to have them look at it in case you should have the display replaced for free. You could also call Apple to document that you feel you have a serious display problem (the line).

I have just bought off my son his iphone4, we all forgot that he was on o2 (but no longer) I am on vodaphone, got a micro sim card from vodaphone to enable me to keep my number, but it won't unlock, unless i want to spend huge amounts of money and wait 3 weeks, have followed the instructions on itunes for the unlocking but not successful. Help anyone.

O2 will and do unlock iPhones for their customers and quite happily compared to some other UK carriers
The user must either be in contract or an active PAYG customer and the iPhone must be in use ontyhe O2 UK network

A hard drive if it has failed will sometimes allow you to boot into windows but may not work completely (Eg: In a scenario, where system partition ;where windows is installed works fine but logical partition of hard drive has gone bad).
On certain conditions, if the hard drive is on verge of failure may/may not respond completely. I would suggest you to run a diagnostics using Seagate Seatools which works on any hard drive irrespective of manufacturer to actually confirm if your hard drive has failed.
Also, any hard drive can fail in spite of it been 1yr old or 1day old as its all manufactured in bulk and most of it comes from China

When it goes black do a very short press of the button on the right upper side of the phone and the screen will reappear. Make it a very short quick press.
OTOH, if you are using the speaker so you can watch the screen as you are talking when it goes dim touch the screen anywhere that it is blank and it will again go bright. On long calls you have to repeat this.
Many folks have had the same problem you described and what I have told you is the best and ONLY way around the screen going blank during a call.

I have just bought a new iphone4s in England I want to use it in Nigeria how do I get it unlock

bought new iPhone in England I want to unlock it to use in Nigeria

Get the UK carrier who holds the lock to unlock it
All UK carriers offer unlocking but generally you need to be a current customer and the iPhone in use in the UK on the carrier's network
There is no other way

the problem still has no solution I have great coverage and also i can send and receive on imessage but i can receive pictures but cant send them what can be the issue

I was going on my twitter and then all the sudden my iphone4 went completely white. Yes, i have tried powering down multiple times, going home multiple times, charging it multiple times and syncing it multiple times. What do I do now?!

S.O.S THIS IS MY 4RTH IPHONE AND IT STOPPED WORKING. DONE EVERYTHING I WAS TOLD.....

Put it into DFU Mode.
Steps
Hold Power Button (3 Seconds)
Continue holding Power Buttton and also hold Home Button (10 Secs)
Release Power Button and Continue holding Home Button (15 Secs)
Your device should restart and display 1 of 2 screens
Screen 1
Apple Logo
Screen 2
Connect to iTunes
Either way your device should work after that.

With 5th gen nano, how to display album artwork during playback at all times, it stays on for a few seconds and then the screen goes black? Is there a way to play and see artwork, at all times (using with a aux. speaker)

I have a 5th gen nano, and I play it often on a aux. speaker. I would like the album artwork to display at all times while playing it here. Right now it plays for a few seconds on each song, and then goes blank. Can this be changed?

The artwork turns black or the screen's backlight turns off? If the backlight turns off, simply disable the backlight timer, but keep in mind this will significantly reduce your iPod's playback time and battery life.

HT201263 i just bought an iphonene 3g from a friend. So I decided to go with straight talk as my carrier, since they advertised it worked w/ that phone. But I cant get any kind of data. I have tried everything! Someone have any suggestions?

i just got iphone3g i decided to go with straight talk well I have no data watsoever. Not able to connect to anything including wi fi. I have called apple and straight talk but no progress.

If they told you it would work, you'll have to talk to them. They are not a supported carrier.

SCCM - Credentials prompt in user PC and then my screen goes black

Hi, when I use SCCM to connect to a pc for a security reason when I do something in the Users PC and it asks for the admin password in my screen ( using remote ) it stays black. I understand why, but, my question is. How can I be able to Put the credentials
remotly too ? Is there a way for the credentials prompt appear in my computer too?
Thanks!

I assume you are using remote assistance via SCCM? If so, enable the following Group Policy Setting
Computer Config\Policies\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options\User Account Control\User Account Control: Allow UIAccess applications to prompt for elevation without using the secure destkop

HT3964 I did the SMC reset for my iMac intel-based and now it won't turn on. What can I do to fix this?

I did the SMC reset for my iMac intel-based and now it won't turn on. What can I do to fix this?

Well, first things first... is the power cord fully plugged into the back of the iMac (and the wall, for that matter)?
Make sure the wall outlet has power, too... I've scratched my head over stupid issues where I forgot to flip a wall switch.
If the outlet does have power, then try doing a pram zap. Command + option + P + R (hold those at startup).
If the machine is receiving power, you should be able to see some LEDs if you look through the bottom grate of the machine to the left of the RAM door.

"This iPod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device is not started." What does that mean?

When I try to plug in my iPod to iTunes, I get a box that says "ThisiPod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device is not started." What does that mean?

to restart it go in windows task manager by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ESC (ECHAP in french keyboard)
or right clic on task bare and start windows task manager
go on tab ''service'' find apple mobile device, right clic on it and start this service
now you device should be able to connect to itunes
