My iphone 3gs is acting weird, every time i get a call or if i try and call some one my iphone gets random black lines down it) so what can I do to fix it?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

My 320GB external drive for Time Machine now only has enough capacity to keep a backup of one day. All my other backups are gone. What can I do to fix this situation?

I've been using a 320GB external drive for time machine for the last several years. The backups always worked fine and when necessary I was able to look at & restore older data from the time capsule. Recently, I keep getting the message that a backup cannot be completed and an older backup will be deleted. Usually this wasn't an issue because I still had several months of information on disk. Now a one-time backup takes up 315GB and therefore I only have a backup of the previous day. I don't understand this because I thought that the backup only saves information that has changed and doesn't copy everything everytime. What do I need to do to get my backups to a reasonable size so that I can keep at least 1 month data stored on it.? Please don't tell me I need a larger drive ... that would be too easy.

Get a larger drive for your TM backups.
The recommended size is 3 times what you are backup. So if 315 GB is a backup then you need a 1 TB drive.

every time I repair my iPod with iTunes, it hangs at the end of the process (while checkin the recovery of iPod). What can I do?

I chose to restore it to factory defaults, but that never succeeded.
It hangs at the end of the process.

Language is Dutch :-)
Littery it says:
Check of Recovery of iPod.
Already for 40 minutes.
I closed down iTunes.
Now, when I turn on my iPod, there is the icon of iTunes with an usb cable towards it.
When I attach it to my computer and turn on iTunes, the message is there that a iPod was stuck in recovery mode and I should retry it.
And then I get the same story. Unpacking, installing, checking... blocked!

I upgraded to iphone 4s and installed iOS 6 but now my battery life is significantly reduced. What can I do to fix this problem?

I upgraded to iphone 4s and installed iOS 6 but now my battery life is significantly reduced. What can I do to fix this problem?
I restored my settings my I got the new phone but I think I heard that with the iOS 6 updated that can be an issue and it is better to start from scratch rather than restore your settings.

reset all settings
settings- general- reset - reset all settings
now reconnect to wifi
settings - wifi- click network name - enter password - join
if issue persists backup info and restore via itunes
Peace, Clyde

IDVD ejects dvd disc one minute early, before burning is completed. Why? What can I do to fix this?

iDVD ejects the dvd disc one minute early, before burning is completed. Why? What can I do to fix this? I have checked project via mapping and there are no problems with it. I have previewed the entire project and it runs fine.

Good morning,
There could be a few reasons why the burn doesn't finish. iDVD needs a lot of hard disk space to create the DVD -- 10-15 Gigs is starting to get low and under 5 G is virtually impossible. Reduce the load on your Mac by quitting other applications while you're trying to burn. Also, you may wish to break down your workflow into two steps (I do this routinely):
1) After you're satisfied in iDVD -- use the Save As Disc Image command rather than going directly to burn. This creates a virtual DVD which you can mount and play on your Mac.
2) Second step creates the physical DVD from the disc image. I use Roxio Toast to copy the disc image, but Apple's Disk Utility also works to burn the disc image. Use good quality discs -- Verbatim is often recommended; I've been happy with Sony DVD-R as well.
Here are more ideas: https://discussions.apple.com/message/11269202#11269202

my iPhone 3gs is asking me for a password to unlock back up when i try to restore it. I updated to ios5 on a friends computer, I have tried every single password i have ever used and its not working...does this mean i lose everything?? help what do i do??

Your friend may have Encrypeted Backups enabled on their iTunes if so that person should know the password if they don't I don't think there is much luck for you but I am research methods to unlock iPhone encrypted backups! If I find anything I shall let you know!

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."

Every time I minimize Adobe Digital Editions it stops running. Windows says it is looking for a solution to the problem. What can I do?

I have Adobe Digital Editions 4.0 installed. Everything works until I try to minimize the program. When I do that the program crashes. Windows tells me the program has stopped working. What can I do?

I get this same issue continuously. I've reinstalled the app, reinstalled Windows but on every one of my Windows devices as soon as I minimize the app it crashes.

If there are any saved web pages or HTML files in the same folder that you're trying to upload from, move or delete those files and try again. Otherwise, try moving the files you want to upload to a different folder.

I dropped my iPhone 3G and now there is a white screen that will not go away.. what can I do to fix this?

Okay so I dropped my iPhone 3G today and ever since it has been stuck on this white screen that has stripes on it. I have tried holding the home button with the up volume and the power button for a while and that didn't work. I also tried just the home button and the power button. I also tried taking it apart to see if something was loose but nothing was. PLEASE HELP I don't want to get rid of my iphone!

Applecare+ for iPhone covers two instances of accidental damage for a fee of £49 per claim (in the UK).

If you don't have Applecare you can usually get a refurbished unit from an Apple Retail Store cut price - though they may not have any 3 models in stock and you may be 'forced' to upgrade to a 3GS.

Are you running modified software on your phone? This error seems to be common if the firmware has been modified and you're trying to restore the phone again.

One Of My buttons Aren't Wokimg On My Phone What Can I Do To Fix This

I Need Help :(

If you have restarted (turned completely off, and back on), and restored to factory settings, and the problem still exists, it means you likely have a hardware error. If you are still covered by the limited warranty (1 year), or if you purchased the Apple Care plan (2 years from date of purchase), it should be covered assuming no accidental damage. If your warranty is expired, or there is accidential damage, the next option is an out of warranty repair. $199.00 USD for an iPhone 4s (I believe).
