My iphone will not turn back to main screen it is frozen and can not get to go back

my iphone will not get out of a locked function. The phone at the bottom where you usually slide to unlock in changing in Japanese, and other symbols. As well as I can not see anything or turn the phone on when unplugged. after the screen has done the Japanese thing it acts like it needs to be plugged into computer to download itunes and states that it needs itunes to be restored. Once I plug it into computer it only shows apple screen. Any help?

Try forcing a reboot on your iPhone. Hold down the Home button and Sleep button simultaneously for about ten seconds. Ignore anything the phone does and do not release until the screen goes dark and you see the Apple symbol. If your iPhone still wants to connect to iTunes, do so and see what happens. If there is still a problem, click Restore on your iPhone's summary page in iTunes. First restore from backup to try and preserve your content, but if this fails, you may have to restore your iPhone as new and manually set it up again. Good luck!

I am heading out to the US from NZ and I want to buy an Iphone, Will it work in NZ if I buy from Apple and do not connect to any network until back in NZ? Thanks

When you get to the States, if you will be in an area with an Apple store for a couple days, call and ask about reserving an unlocked iPhone, it takes a couple days to get it in the store from what I understand.
The current MBP 15" models are 2.2 and 2.4 GHz i7 machines. There is a 17" with 2.5 GHz i7.
The difference, in addition to the slightly faster cpu, is:
2.2 GHz - Radeon HD 6750 M with 512 MB VRAM
2.4 GHz - Radeon HD 6770 M with 1 GB VRAM
Both have the same hard drive, 750 GB 5400 rpm, both have the same primary graphics - Intel 3000.
So the difference is in the discrete grapics processor, important for heavy video work, heavy gaming...but will drain the battery a lot faster.
You can get all the details on any Mac computer by going to http://www.everymac.com and click on the model and then scroll down to the exact machine of interest.

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.

Go to the iTunes store on the phone and "buy" any free app. This should fix the problem.

HT4061 my ipad automatically shut down and now i lost al savings and in-app purchases the battery was on 50% what happened and can i get my purchases back

my ipad automatically shut down and now i lost al savings and in-app purchases the battery was on 50% what happened and can i get my purchases back

Hi there,
This seems very frustrating. An iPad can shut down randomally for many reasons, just like a computer can crash. If it begins to happen regularly, then do contact Apple, but there are no signs that your iPad is malfunctioning from just one shut down like this.
But, you should be able to get all your in-app purchases back. In some apps, there is a 'restore purchases' button, which will download all the purchases you made for free.
In some cases, you can tap to make the purchase again, and it will be downloaded at no charge, however this does not happen with consumable items such as coins and credits.
I reccomend contacting iTunes Store Support at the link below, they will take a closer look at your purchases and give you further steps on redeeming them. They may also refund you if they have been lost.
iTunes Store Support
You can also contact the developer of the app, and report the crash and missing purchases. If you tell me the app, I'll give you the relevent contact in the developers.
Other than that, sorry for the problems, and have a great day,
Nathan

IPhone 4s is turned on, but the screen is unresponsive. Reset did not fix problem.

My iPhone 4s is completely charged and was turned off last night, but the screen is unresponsive when I try to turn it on. The screen has a tan background with pale skinny stripes with a black fuzzy frame. I've already tried a reset, but I can't seem to get it to work. Also, before I turned it off, the screen would shake near the bottom when I had certain apps open. Not sure how to fix this, either. I've only had the phone for a week...Help?

Iphone 4 frozen and can not reset by sleep button

my iphone 4 is frozen and I can not reset by pressing sleep button since the spring in it conveniently broke after the warranty ran out. I need help, this is my young daughter phone and she is out of town and she has it with her. Trying to reset it on icloud but it only says to go to your mac computer which I have windows computer to reset the phone. Anybody know what to do?

If you have a Mac computer (I'm not sure if you do or not), try to reset the phone by syncing it with the Mac. Unfortunately, I don't know of any other ways to fix this issue -- the broken spring presents a large problem. You might need to end up going into an Apple store and buying a new phone. You should be able to have the sim card in the current phone be put into the new phone, but since the warranty has run out, you unfortunately will probably not be able to get a replacement phone.
Hope this helps a little. Sorry to hear of the issue with your daughter's phone.

Can not turn i pad on, i did hard reset and still not working ? help please

can not turn i pad 2 on , I did try the hard reset, no luck. help please

Probably depends on how long you've had it. I don't know what Best Buy's returns/repairs policies are, and whether you're within their exchange period. You could try contacting them

Accidentally turned my pdf file from adobe to word and can't get it back

I changed my pdf file from Adobe to microsoft word and don't know how to get the default back to Adobe. How do recover this default?

Hi stevekirch,
Do you mean that all PDF files are trying to open in Word instead of Adobe? If so, right-click on a PDF file, move your mouse pointer to Open with, and then click Choose default program... Select Adobe Reader from the list of programs, make sure there's a check mark next to Always use the selected program to open this kind of file, and then click OK. That should switch it back so that all PDF files open with Adobe automatically.
Please click the thumbs up button to say "Thanks!"

How can i get my apps back after an iOS 6 upgrade?, How can i get my apps back after an iOS 6 upgrade?

I just did the iOS6 upgrade, against my better judgement. Of course, after the upgrade it put my phone into recovery mode. I didn't think this would be a big deal because THIS time, I had backed up my apps.
Unfortunately, none of my apps are still on my phone. I have to re-install ALL of them. I don't even want to say how much money I sank into games and I'm cringing thinking that all of my progress has been lost.
My question is this: How do I get my back up if on iTunes, it looks like my apps are no longer even there!!!?

I had the same problem, but I just synced the iPhone to iTunes (using the cable), and all of my apps came back. They were all advanced a screen over from where they had been prior to the upgrade, so if it looks like they might not be there, keep going just to make sure.
