My iphone 4 is completely frozen. Please, any advice as to how I can fix this?

Anyone know what I should do if my iphone 4 completely freezes (screens gone blank now but still glowing), unresponsive to any of the buttons so wont lock on or off. It does not respond when connected with a computer. This has never happen before, so first time issue. No water damage/dropping etc damage has occurred so don’t know why this happen. However, before the screen froze I got a message saying memory is nearly full… I have had this before but was never an issue like this. Please, any advice on how I can fix this?

Hello, Robertwilliamnewman. 
Thank you for the question.  I would recommend closing all applications in the multitasking menu and then restart the device.  Also, check to see how much space is available on the device as this can limit device functionality if it is at capacity.  You can check device capacity by going to Settings > General > About.
iOS: Force an app to close

Also, some e-mail clients are set to convert file format upon sending and this could be the cause of the issue.  If this is the case, you would need to refer to the sender to have them correct this in their preferences of their e-mail client. 
Cheers,
Jason H.

    Hi L.T.D.,
    To only answer the question you asked, the answer is yes you can do those specific tasks you mentioned.
    My example:
    Since you don't want the sentence if A2 is blank you would modify this formula to something like this:
    =IF(ISBLANK(A2),"","the patient reports "&A2&" that won't leave.")
    I don't see a problem if all you are looking to do is to translate your form or forms into a report. I could even see several different forms reporting to one sheet that tracks their history. It may require a lot of maintenance if there are an increasing number of forms reporting.
    Sometimes merged cells create difficulty in Numbers. A mix of popups and checkboxes may complicate things.
    I think the previous advice may turn out to be the best, though. You are asking,"If I head this way am I headed to Japan?" I am saying "Yes". They are saying, "You will need a boat!"

  • Itunes gets to 99% then stops, does any one have any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

    When trying to download Itunes 10.5.1 the download reaches 99% then stops after a while it will say download has been interupted. I have tried using another browsers, disabling firewall and I have followed all the steps or uninstalling and reinstalling as suggested on the website. If anyone has any suggestions as to how I can fix this it would be much appriciated.
    Many thanks

    Disable your firewall and antivirus software. It can cause problems with the update process. Kaspersky is especially bad for this.

  • Everytime i try and upgrade to yosemite it stops when it is almost done downloading and says error for no reason. Any suggestion as to how i can fix this?

    i have tried at least 5 times to download this but every time it is almost done downloading it says error and says retry. i really just want to download this new system! please help!

    Hello Julie,
    Your songs and iTunes balance are fine, they are not influenced by the iTunes applications or any issues it may have. The message you are experiencing indicates the folder where iTunes is saved has changed, or no longer exists. Since you are using a shortcut (a link to where the application iTunes is installed) and you're getting this message, it means the iTunes application is not where it used to be located.
    I would suggest trying to reinstall iTunes from www.apple.com/itunes and let us know if you encounter any errors messages.

  • I was recently given an ipod touch and the only screen it will show is a usb cable and itunes symbol. I've tried the troubleshooting stuff on this website but it still won't work. Any ideas as to how i can fix this?

    My Ipod touch only shows a usb wire and itunes symbol when i turn it on. it does not show up on my itunes or in my computer. ive tried the troubleshooting stuff(reseting the ipod, reinstalling the newest itunes, restarting the computer) and nothing has changed. my ipod shuffle connects to my itunes just fine though.

    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.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  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."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

    Hello dwb,
    Here is the screen shot, just the top half, there are another 10 pages, but I guess this should enough for you to have an idea of waht is going on, bit small I am afraid. No, I don't have any apps setup to run when I open my computer, the kernel, varies between 290 and 305 per cent ish.
    Would that PRAM thing help ? I think it may be the computer itself, well something inside, as this the first time that the fan has ever started running since I have this computer, even when I have 3 or 4 apps running.
    Thank you again for your advice,

  • Tried to transfer all my data to iPhone 5 from iPhone 3GS lost my email and app data?  Do you why and how I can fix this?

    Hi...
    Tried to transfer all my data to iPhone 5 from iPhone 3GS lost ONLY my email and app data?  But weird thing is, its still on my old phone!!!
    Do you know why and how I can fix this? 
    Shelley

    How did you "try" to transfer this data? The only way to restore App data is by restoring from a backup that contains the App data, then syncing the Apps back to the phone. Emails are not included in any iPhone backup, only account settings.
