my i phone 4 fell down and I can't connect to my provider.it also recharges itself within a few minutes and the back of the phone is really hot. I tried to send it to the technical support but they told my that the reparationcosts will be higher than the actual price of a new phone.is this possible?

Yes, it is entirely possible.
Although in most countries Apple offers an out of warranty replacement for a nominal fee.  In the US it is $199 for the 4S and $149 for older generations of the iPhone.  Depending on where you are, that may be an option.

  • I've never dropped my phone for the 7 months that I've had it but last night I was at a park and when I sat down at a table, my phone as in my pocket and I heard a pop. I took my phone out and the entire screen was cracked. what should I do?

    Probably not, since user-caused damage isn't covered by the warranty. But you can take the iPhone to an Apple Store and see if there's anything they can do for you. A phone company store will not service your iPhone at all, to the best of my knowledge.

  • What should i do with my ipad because it fell down and the screen cracked but its still functioning

    what should i do with my ipad because it fell down and the screen cracked but its still functioning

    Up to you whether you want to get it serviced. If you don't, I'd suggest putting on a screen protector to help hold the screen together and try to prevent further damage. It's likely that it will eventually fail at some point, but you could get lucky and have it continue to work for quite some time.
    If you decide you want to get it serviced, Apple does not repair iPads, but will replace the entire iPad for a flat fee. If you have AppleCare+ on the iPad, the cost will be relatively minimal; $49 in the US. Otherwise, see the Service Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/service/faq/
    There are independent iPad repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipad repair".  You can also look for parts and instructions and do the repair yourself. Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPad serviced by an unauthorized shop or perform your own repair, you will get no further support from Apple.
    Regards.

  • My iPhone 4s fell down and the LCD turned blue and black stripes line, is it still covered by the warranty?

    My iPhone 4s fell down and the LCD turned black and blue stripes and the warranty is still active.
    My question is, is it still covered by the Apple? How to fix it without changing the LCD?

    Accidental or wilful damage is not covered by Apple's standard or extended warranty. AppleCare + does cover this kind of damage for a small fee.
    When taking the phone to Apple for repair Apple will not replace the faulty part. They replace the whole phone. However some stores may offer screen replacements.

    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes): This issue is typically caused by out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software. Please followTroubleshooting security software issues if USB troubleshooting does not resolve this issue.
    Error 13 and 14: These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.

    Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.

    The ipad was fell foot away from the floor and the screen was totally blackout. what should i do?what is the damage the hardware or the software

    Probably safe to assume if you can no longer turn it on, you probably have hardware damage. Take it in to an Apple store or Authorized Service center to have it checked out, but the warranty will not covver this.

  • My iPad wont locate a Bluetooth device. Bluetooth is on, the Logitech keyboard is on, and the iPad just searches. What should I do?

    My iPad wont locate a Bluetooth device. Bluetooth is on, the Logitech keyboard is on, and the iPad just searches. What should I do?

    This happened to me. I determined that my keyboard was paired with some other device (iPad or iPhone). I had to find the device which was paired with the keyboard, unpair it from that device, and then the new device that I wanted to pair it with could discover the keyboard. Bluetooth devices already paired with something cannot be discovered. There needs to be a better way.

  • HT1657 I've just rented End of Watch and the lip sync is out, what should I do?

    I've just rented End of Watch and the lip sync is out, what should I do?

    Try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account (Store > View My Apple ID on iTunes 11) and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that film and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
    Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

  • I keep getting the message ''Mozilla Firefox is not responding" and the system then freezes. What should I do to correct this ? Thanks.

    This freezes everything including my e-mail, or slows it down
    greatly. I also get this message with Internet Explorer. I have
    Verizon FIOS as my Internet connection.

    I just posted a similar problem below. You pointed me to the problem - thanks. My 'wrong browser version' was being caused by an old version number being left in the 'general.useragent.override' field. It would seem that this old version number would be deleted upon an upgrade, but the old version number is simply left in there. I changed the field from:
    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.20) Gecko/20081217 Firefox/2.0.0.18
    to:
