- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable
- Try another charging source
- Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

Iphone 5 will not charge, tried 3 different cables and none of them work on my phone but do on other iPhone 5's

Iphone 5 will not charge, tried 3 different cables and none of them work on my phone but do on other iPhone 5's. All 3 cables are genuine Apple cables.

Sounds like the dock port on your iPhone has a problem. It is in warranty so you will need to get it serviced.

I cant login on any of my Apple ID I know there correct but whenever it loads it doesn't work it goes back to sign in when I try it on my setting it is the same thing

Just purchased an iPhone 6 and will not charge. Tried 3 different cables and different outlets.

today I purchased a new iPhone 6 and it will not charge. I tried 3 different charging cables and 2 separate outlets.
Please help.

Replacement is the obvious fix, but you may want to take a quick peek inside your Lightning connector just to verify there's not some dust or other detritus causing inserted cables to fail to make proper contact.
Normally with a phone that isn't brand new this happens most often due to pocket lint.

I have an Iphone which is stuck on the apple sign. Is there a way to fix this? Or will I need to go to the shop?

I have an Iphone which is stuck with the apple icon on the screen. Can this be fixed or do I need to go to the store to get it fixed?
Thanks

When the iPhone only shows the Apple logo and then turns off, it usually indicates an issue with the software that is preventing the phone from completing it's boot sequence. This can be remedied by putting the phone into DFU mode and restoring it. By restoring the phone, the software and firmware will be removed and replaced with a fresh set and the content will be removed from the phone and need to be resynced.
To put the phone into DFU mode:
1. Make sure the phone is connected to the computer
2. Hold down the sleep/wake button and home button at the same time for 8 seconds
3. Let go of the sleep/wake button and keep holding down the home button
4. If you are successful, a dialog box will pop up in iTunes stating that iTunes has detected an iPod/iPhone in recovery mode and the phone's display will remain black.
5. Click OK, then click the restore button in iTunes.
Hopefully after that, the iPhone will be up and running so you can sync your content back.
I hope this helps!

Ost. I am now presently online with my IPAD 2 connected to one of the USB slots in my laptop. How do I go about "Restoring" myself the 3G feature of my IPAD 2? I hope you can help me without my going back to that Apple Store I mentioned before.

Dear Sir/Madam:
        Good day!
         I went to an Apple Store here in Legazpi City, Philippines and inquired from a store attendant about the problem of my IPAD 2 which lost its 3G feature after I downloaded the iOS7 operating system which she said needed to be "Restored" at a cost.
         I am right now trying to "Restore" my IPAD2 to have the former 3G feature return and my IPAD2 is currently connected to one of the USB slots of my laptop.
         Please help me how to go about it so I may be able to do it myself if it is possible.
          Thank you.
                                                                            Sincerely yours,
                                                                              EDWIN M. VIBAR

Make sure that you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your laptop and then follow the instructions here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!

This has worked for some others.
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have just uploaded the new software and a strange app has appeared on my home screen ( a grey target, panorama thing without the man) there is no title under it and I can't seem to delete it. What is it? Do I need it? How do I delete it?

You can take some of the steps here, #4, #5 or even trying a #18
Step by Step to fix your Mac
but I suspect your going to first have to create a data recovery drive
Create a data recovery, undelete boot drive
to get your data off the machine,
then do a #20 to eliminate the bad sectors as that's why your getting the "pinwheel" it's getting a delay reading from the drive, right when your trying to log in too, what a bad spot for it to happen.

If you are absolutely positively sure that the password you are typing in is your Apple ID password, I would try once more to enter the password. Be real careful as you type and make sure that Autocorrect is not changing what you are typing.
If no luck try to proceed without entering the password. If you can get the iPad functional go into
Settings > ITunes and App Store and log in there.
If you can log into to your Apple ID there you will also need to go to
Settings > Messages > Send and Receive and enter or check the email at which you want to receive messages,
Also
Settings > FaceTime > check or enter the email address you want to be reached by FaceTime.
