My iphone 4 is possessed. it works on its own, calling people, sending texts, opening apps, etc. i can't even text anyone without it taking over.
anyone know what i should do?
Standard troubleshooting...
Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider. Slide to power off. Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if, it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
- Press the red (-) to delete all apps from this list.
- Press the home button twice when done.
If still a problem restore with your backup.
If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

I had a problem my iphone 4 mouthpiece doesn't work when i am calling other mobile phone
i had a problem my iphone 4 mouthpiece doesn't work, when i am calling other mobile phone they can't hear me but i can hear them. But when I am using the skype and viber to talk to other people they can hear me perfectly. and also when I record my voice it sounds good i can hear my voice.. i dont know what is wrong with my phone?
I get trying to unlock it and it finally accepted the 4 digit PIN number on my SIM Card, which it wasnt accepting before (there is also a super PIN number, which i dont know whats for). And now it says "no service". I am reseting the phone and sometimes it just says "no service" and other times the SIM Card is locked again and it doesn't accept the PIN number anymore...

I cannot use my iPhone to make calls or send text messages after upgrading to ios 7
I just upgraded to ios7 and I can no longer make calls or send text messages. The screens seem to be locking. Does anyone know what I can do to fix it?
My wife is having the exact same issue after updating to the new iOS 8.1.1 and we've tried all the same steps even restoring the phone as a new phone. We've contacted our service provider and they've told us to go to apple to potentially "remove" her serial number from their servers to allow it to work properly on the service we have. We are desperate as purchasing a new phone right now is not an option and she desperately needs her phone for work and life.

I can make calls and send texts on my new iPhone 5, but all incoming calls and texts are received by my old (non-Apple) phone.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

My ios update keeps getting stuck on the Restoring iPhone software stage. I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it again, but still nothing. Now I can't even use my phone as it shows the plug into iTunes screen. Please help!!!! Thanks,
A Restore first downloads a new copy of iOS to your computer. On a slow Internet connection this can take a long time. How fast is your connection? How long would you expect it to take to download 900 MB?
That's assuming nothing is interfering with the download. Some firewalls and antivirus programs will block the download or slow it down. So you should temporarily disable your security software. Security software can also block the update after the iOS download is complete. -
My iPod got wet, I put it in a bag of rice for 4 days now the Ipod Works in my music player dock, but wont connect to pc and wont work on its own.
Greetings Socs4bill,
It seems your iPod has been exposed to liquid and is not operating properly. Based on the information you have provided, it appears your iPod needs to be serviced. The following link should help you get started with the process and has links with additional information on topics such as warranty and service pricing, battery replacement, and express replacement service.

Thank you for replying. Unfortunately, I already did all of these things. As you can see from the below screenshot, the language is already set. Also, this screenshot was taken in Safe Mode, so NoScript is not enabled. About:accounts still says I need to enable cookies for some reason. So, this solution didn't work.... -
Hi
I am a keen photographer and I have just bought you SD card reader for ipad. This works well but was winding if there is an app that I can view the images on the SD card full screen without having to import them to the iPad or is there a way to do this on the iPad
The reason for buy this was for when I was out and about to get a better view off my images.
I have a iPad 2 16gb
Hope you can help!
ThanksA couple of weeks ago, (after reading a review in TUAW) I bought a wireless hub/ SD card reader called RAVPower. its app comes with a built in viewer, so you can load it up, and see the pics full screen.

Iphone 5 from Dubai not working in INDIA. Call failed
I bought 3 Iphone5 from Dubai out of it 2 are working on Vodafone India(Call & 3G data) but the Third iphone 5(3G Data only) on vodafone.
i have managed to cut sim into NANO sim they are working on other two Iphone5 but not on last one.
i can use DATA service on third iphone but cant call or sms it shows call failed.
Any Solution ???hetabk wrote:
This one(md655) has verizon usa card from which i can call but when i put Vodafone india only data.
There is the problem. The iPhones originated in the US and there are NO unlocked iPhones for sale in the US.
In the future, it's best to only purchase iPhones directly from Apple or an authorized reseller.
You may simply be out of luck. You can try contacting Verizon and see if they will unlock the device for you, there is no guarantee.
If the other two are locked to AT&T, you are completely out of luck.
