My iPhone is locked into a large display view
My iPhone 3G suddenly started only showing the display in the largest view. I can't get it back to normal. It doesn't get smaller when I use the two finger squeeze. I've reset it several times.

It is the zoom feature and is covered in the manual.
As the manual describes, double tap the screen with three fingers.

My iPhone 4S went into lockup with a screen displaying an image of the USB connector pointing to the iTunes logo. I was traveling and took the phone to the closest Verizon store. The store informed me that I had a brick lock and that only an Apple retail store could unlock the phone. The Verizon store explained that they have seen this problem with SEVERAL other 4S users who had upgraded to the new iOS7 operating system and that to their knowledge it is too demanding to work on pre-iPhone 5S phones having a far less capable processor. The closest Apple store was 50 miles away in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. I went to that store three days later (today) to reset the phone before flying out of Philadelphia Intl. Airport. The Apple store personnel were overloaded and not sensitive to my plight. They told me that I would have to make a reservation for a time 2 hours later for tech support. I couldn't do that without missing my flight - out of luck until I get back to Los Angeles. If the Verizon store explanation is true, Apple needs to accommodate 4S and earlier generation users and not force them to upgrade to a $459 iPhone 5S!

The salesperson at Verizon has no clue what their saying.
My 4S and many of my friends works perfectly fine on IOS 7.3, no issue as all. -
My iPhone is locked due to setting up a passcode after loading new version 7. I have tried to reset but keep getting turn of "find my iphone". I can't get into the phone to turn this off. What do I do now?
Try this - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212 - also you can sign into www.icloud.com and remote erase the phone
recovery mode restore as descibed in HT1808 might be your last resort though -
my iphone automatically locked and it does not open again,but if u call the sim that was inserted you will hear that it was active,so please help me how to open my iphone 4,no display appeared if you touch the switch button,
Hello arlyn-cavite,
If the screen is not showing anyting when you press any of the buttons you may want to try these steps.
From article iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Take care,

IPhone 6 trade-in scam now locked into 2 year contract
Does anyone know were I can file an official complaint with Verizon? I can't believe the run around I'm getting with Verizon. I spoke to a customer service rep back on October 18th about the iPhone6 trade-in program. I was told that I qualify for the trade-in and that after signing up for a new 2-year contract they would initially charge me $200 for the new iPhone 6 but as long as I return my iPhone 6 by December 10th I would be given a Verizon credit of $200, I even asked during the conversation with customer service to verify that I would definitely be getting the $200 back in credit and she'd confirmed that.
Couple of weeks later I receive my new iPhone 6 but no return instructions or pre-printed label to return my iPhone 4. When I called customer service today they told me I missed the deadline by 3 days and that I don't qualify for the promo??? How can that be when I was guaranteed by the customer service rep that I did qualify and that there would be no issues. When I asked to speak to a supervisor and told him to check the recording of the phone conversation I had with customer service back on the 18th he told me that what customer service tells it's customers isn't legal binding and she was wrong to tell me I qualify for the promo. So because of her mis-information I know locked into a new 2-year contract that I can't get out of and I'm paying $200 for a phone that I thought would be free. I can't believe Verizon would treat their customers this way. Are they telling me that I can't trust anything a customer service rep tells me because it's not legally binding? Well know I'm legally bound to a 2year contract. Thanks a lot Verizon!
You better believe I will be telling all of my friends, family and co-workers about how Verizon treats their customers and I will be pushing them to switch to another carrier that actually treats their customers with respect and doesn't trick them into 2-year contracts like they did to me.I understand you are upset about not getting your $200, but seriously they tricked you into signing a 2-year contract?! REALLY?! You made your own decision to buy the phone with Verizon, things can change the day after they tell you something it's how ALL CELL PHONE CARRIERS are!! So even if you do switch <<Comment removed >> , the other carrier will most likely do the same thing. You aren't entitled as a person or customer to every little thing Verizon does, some things you just won't qualify for <<Comments removed >> .There will be other promotions going on you could qualify for. Everybody makes mistakes, it shows we are human, so be mad at that rep all you want she made a mistake you don't know if she was new or not, what if you were her first call customer? Why do people not think about this?! <<Comment removed >>

suddenly, when iphone 4 turned on, it goes into a large font, and therefore i can't access the whole screen, and sometimes can't sign on access apps, use phone, because the font size is so large that i only seen 30% of the sceen
why, how, and how to get back to normalLooks like it is a software bug. Happened to me too. I did turn zoom on many days earlier just to see how it works. Then suddenly many days later it went into super giant font mode and I could not get back to accessibility mode - thans Stedman for the double tapping with 3 fingers (I had tried that several times and it did not seem to work on the main menu, but it did finally work on the general setting menu).
I guess the answer is to just not use the zoom feature -
Have a iPhone 3GS from australia given to me by my sister. I live in the UK and it won't accept my pay as you go sim card. I don't know which network it is locked into. What can I do to unlock it?
Your Sister will have to arrange for the iPhone to be unlocked in Australia
If it can be accomplished whilst iPhone is in UK
Fortunately all the Aussie carriers do offer unlocking -
If i buy the Tmobile version of the iphone 6 plus and pay full price, is the phone still locked into Tmobile network? Last year my iphone 5s wasn't and on activation i used a diferent sim card
Unfortunately I spent my Saturday AM at the Genius bar last weekend and that is when they gave me the new phone. This was after I also spent about 3 hours total on several apple support calls/chats.

My iphone has locked up displaying a received text message and an app playing a radio station. I can't restart the phone by holding down the on/off button. Any suggestions to try?
Hold the home button and the Sleep/Wake button ignoring the slide to power off message until the phone turns off then you can repower it by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button for a few seconds until the apple logo appears.

IOS 8.2 on iphone 5s lock screen icons are larger
Since upgrading my iphone 5s to 8.2, the signal, carrier, and battery icons on the lock screen are larger then they are when the phone is unlocked on the home screen... When I unlock my phone, the icons stay large for a brief moment and then flicker, and then shrink down to the normal size. Is this a known bug in iOS 8.2? It is really rather annoying as the screen is lagging and it takes time for the icons to go to their normal size instead of just being at the same size on the lock screen and home screen.
I suspect it was intentional, so you can get a quick reading of network and battery without putting on my glasses
I also don't consider it significant; I do not notice any flicker in the font change as the screen opens. And I have Reduce Motion turned on, because I think the fly-in is pretty silly.
A long time ago I worked in a software development environment that defined 4 levels of criticality in classifying bugs:
Critical - the bug prevents a customer from using a key feature (or the application as a whole)
Severe - Same criterion as Critical, but there is a workaround
Annoying
Interesting
I would classify this one as a 4. -
My Iphone is locked in zoomed mode
I woke up this morning to the same problem on my iPhone 6 + and came across this string. Trying to get to settings to change the Zoom setting was useless. The display was so enlarged that I couldn't even enter my security code after doing a hard reset. It turns out that the solution is to double-tap with three fingers. When I did, the display snapped back into the correct perspective. I could then go into Settings/General/Accessibility and turn off Zoom. Thanks, PaulCB!

So even if I just ask to pay them to replace the lock button they won't because my screens are third-party?
Apple does not repair devices beyond replacing the screen on some models or a battery replacement. They replace the ENTIRE device.
For the Out of Warranty replacement cost, you could have gotten a fully functional replacement device. Instead you chose to spend less to get only the screen replaced and continue to live with additional issues.
Apple will not touch the device now. They will know that it was opened elsewhere and that the replacement screen is not original. -

I have Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom on my MacBook Pro laptop. I bought an iMac and I'd like to move my installations to the larger display desktop for editing purposes. How can I go about transferring them?
I have the same question. It seems that Adobe is almost impossible to contact (I ended up here at the forums to ask the same question).
I will never buy another Adobe product again if I can get another program to replace it. If this is customer service then it is NON EXISTENT!
I notice that your question has not been answered and why should you have to get the information from a forum? I know of no other company that makes you do this for simple product information.
NOT HAPPY with this version of arrogant customer service (nor am I happy about renting Photoshop products into the future - it is just a money grab in my opinion). I will be voting with my feet and going elsewhere in future. -
Hello My ipads Power button is not working properly when I press it once it shows option to turn off instead of locking and some other display problems like it suddenly lockes down or display disappears ...Please help. Thank You
Thanks for that information!
I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!
