My i phone is locked up my apps when i touch them have a line or box around it
my iphone is locked with a line around whatever you touch or a box around the app
Sounds like you have VoiceOver enabled.
With VoiceOver enabled, VoiceOver speaks the items on the screen along with having an outline around the selected item.
To select an item, you touch it and the selected item will be voiced.
To activate the selected item - the selected item will have an outline around it, double-tap it.
To scroll, flick three fingers.
You need to work your way to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Off.
Or with your iPhone connected to iTunes, under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, select Configure Universal Access. Select Neither for Seeing - to deselect VoiceOver followed by selecting OK.

My iPhone3GS has started crashing. I'll be mid-phone call, or using an app, when the screen will go dark. I'll have to do a restart. It dumps to the warning screen that there's no power and needs to be plugged in.
Once I connect the phone to a power source, in a couple of minutes it's ready to roll again, and displaying a "full battery" icon.
The phone is almost always fully charged when this happens, and I don't get a crash when the phone is plugged into a power source.
Took my iphone to apple store, they informed that battery is very good and there is no need for replacement. Might be there is a problem with iphone motherboard. But they can't repair it as my 3GS crossed warranty.
Where should I go to repair this. Within 2 years...this 32GB 3GS is almost garbage for me with no support from apple. I am ready to send it to apple for repairs and pay the repair charges.
I tried everything... deep reset ... factory settings .... nothing is working... Apple staff pl. take care of your customers ...This is a User to User Forum... You are Not Addressing Apple here...

can I back my photos to icloud, delete photos in my phone, and access my photos wirelessly when I need them?
No you cannot. once you delete them off your phone the only way you can view them wirelessly on your phone is by connecting your phone back to the computer and putting them back on your phone. Otherwise you cannot access them wirelessly.

How do u close the apps when done with them to save power with iOS 7
How do u close the apps when done with them to save power with iOS 7
To close out apps, simply double click the home button and instead of holding down the app icons and clicking on the X mark in older versions, you have to swipe the app window up and away.
Also you can save on battery by turning of background app refresh from settings .... See this article for details , http://nyacomputing.com/how-to-close-out-background-apps-in-ios-7-and-save-on-ba ttery/ -

How do i stop my iphne 5s from deleting text messages and closing out of apps when i open them?
My phone keeps deleting text messages before I can even read them or they don't come through at all. My phone also closes out of apps as soon as I click on them. does anyone know what I can do to fix these problems?
I have tried that and it doesn't work for me. I can set everything up, but then it won't get mail. At all.. Says server isn't responding. My issue with imap is that it won't create copies like POP does. It downloads directly from the server. So whoever is reading my email (my husband) on his phone, if he deletes it, then it's deleted from my phone, or email client as well. It's a sticky business. Any suggestions?
IMAP is not good for a shared email account for this very reason (but is great for a single reader who uses many devices for access). The best suggestion I have is to create separate email accounts, if possible. Otherwise, you'll both really have to be conscientious about not deleting emails. -

Try resetting your device by holding down both the home and lock buttons for ~10 seconds or until the device restarts, ignoring the power slider.

Tried restarting the phone. Didn't help.
Every time I connect the phone with the cable, the question to trust the MacBookPro comes up, which I answer 'Trust'. Doesn't help.
Tried restarting the mac. Didn't help.
Any suggestions would be appreciated- Thanks !Hi bhorv67,
Welcome to the Support Communities! The resource below explains the troubleshooting steps to take when your iPhone repeatedly asks to trust the MacBook Pro:
'Trust This Computer' alert on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202778
'Trust This Computer' alert on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Learn about trusting computers with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
When you connect your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new computer or another device attempting to access the files of your iOS device, you'll see an alert asking you to verify that you trust the connected device. If you tap Trust, you'll allow this device to access files stored on your iOS device.
If your iOS device is passcode locked, you need to unlock the device before you'll see the alert.
To trust a computer:
Connect the computer or other device to your iOS device.
If your iOS device is locked with a passcode, unlock it.
Tap Trust.
If you're about to sync the device with iTunes, click Accept.
The trusted computer or device can access the files and settings of your iOS device. A trusted computer can sync with your iOS device, import photos, access movies and videos, contacts, and other such content, until you disconnect. The data stored on your iOS device isn't exposed before you enter your passcode (if enabled) and choose to trust the connected computer or device.
If you choose not to trust the connected computer, you can charge your device, but the connected computer won't be able to access any content on your device.
If you tap Trust, the computer will be trusted until you untrust all computers or you erase the device. If you tap Don't Trust, you'll see this alert each time you connect your device to that computer.
If you're using iOS 8 or later: To untrust all computers, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Location & Privacy. This will also reset your location and privacy settings. You can also untrust all computers by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This will also reset your network settings.
