My iphone4 screen is unresponsive, thus cannot swipe to open key pad for password. I downloaded ios8, which caused loss of screen functionality. Any hope for the poor little thing?

my iphone screen is non interactive (dead) Thus cannot swipe to reveal passcode screen. Think it is a result of downloading ios8, but not fr'sure

You will probably have to restore the phone. Try connecting it to your computer and opening iTunes first. Click Restore.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

  • Lock Screen function no longer displays the screensaver

    Something is wrong with my Lock Screen function.
    It no longer displays the screen saver when activated, but turns off the whole screen instead. The screensavers themselves work fine when activated automatically after the set time.
    I've repaired permissions, deleted caches and trashed ~/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver.plist (plus the ByHost ones), but it's still not working.
    Is this a known bug? Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance!

    there is nothing wrong with your lock screen function. it never activated screensaver. it just locks screen. always been that way. if you want to lock screen and run screensaver check the box in securityy preferences to require password to wake from sleep or screensaver. then assign a hot corner to activate screensaver in exposé system preferences and use that.

  • I transferred all my Itunes music from an old PC to my new one with Windows 7.  Now I cannot edit "artist" or anything else for the songs.  It is all greyed out and I cannot enter information. Is there any way to correct this problem?

    I transferred all of my music from an older PC to my new one with Windows 7.  Now I cannot edit selected songs.  The information is greyed out and I can't type over it (on all my music except NEW downloads).  Can anyone help?  I even have a few songs with NO artist tag and I can't write anything in them either.

    It's a permissions problem. Try this: right click on your iTunes icon and choose "run as administrator" that might fix it.

  • I downloaded ios8 on my laptop, and when i was updating it, the screen gave me the logo connect to itunes, i tried to restart it in all the ways, but it didn't work!!!!!! i need a solution, my phone is USELESS and i need it badly!!!!

    i need to know how can i fix my phone, after it gave me the black screen with the connect to itunes logo!!!!!!!! I NEED THE PHONE, and i can't have another one now, it is night!!!!!

    If you are seeing the "Connect to iTunes" logo, then your device is in Recovery Mode, and you will need to restore it:

  • I somehow am in full screen, which means I can't see any information at the top of the screen. How do I get back?

    I don't know what other information you need. I have no Firefox or tabs or any other toolbar at the top of my screen. I don't even have a way to sign off the internet. I want to get my home screen back, or any other that will allow me to operate.

    You can toggle Full Screen Mode on and off by tapping the F11 key. You can also move your cursor to the top of your screen, toolbars will slide down, right-click in the blank area at the end of the Tab bar, choose "Exit Full Screen Mode".

  • Hi my mum has recently gotten a white iphone4 and i have a black iphone4 we both would really want to switch over our phones with each other i was just wondering if there would be any issues would the data contract be switched over???

    please can someone help me i have got a black iphone 4 and my mum has got a white iphone 4 we would like to switch both of our phones with each other we are just worried if the data services and our contracts will be switched over we dont care about our phone music and contacts ok thankyou

    Most carrers won't care if you change phones as long as you are payng for al the services they require.  Since you both have iPhones, it probably won't be an issue, but since we don't know who your carrier is we can't say it they will have a problem with you making that change or not.  The only way to make certain it won't be a problem is to contact your carrier...

  • Where is the "tools menu"? Many of the help topics say to go here, but I cannot find it. Searching help for it lists 1088 things, but all of the ones I looked at assume you can already find the tools menu. Where is it?

    There really isn't more detail. What sequence of things do I click to find this "tools menu"? I am using Firefox 5.0.1.

    Or put the phone in airplane mode as quickly as possible and then see if you can import the pics to the computer or do a iTunes backup.

    Hello there, xoxokgb.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great recommendations for when your iPhone is not recognized in iTunes:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X - Apple Support
    Follow these steps to resolve your issue:
    If you haven't connected your iOS device to this computer before, unlock the device and tap Trust. Learn more about the Trust This Computer alert.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Restart your Mac.
    Make sure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
    Install software updates on your Mac.
    If an iTunes update is available, apply the update.
    Check USB connections. iOS devices need USB 2.0 to work properly. If you're not sure your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, check the computer's specifications.
    Disconnect other USB devices and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac. 
    Try another USB cable.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Purchased phone but cannot activate it  because its asking for the previous owner apple account  information

    i purchased a iphone 4 which wants the previous owners apple account info.

    If you're able to contact the person who set the lock, send them this link and tell them to follow its instructions.
    If not, you can't activate the device but may be able to get it refunded. Apple won't remove the lock for anyone other than the original owner(assuming they're alive.)

  • I did install Adobe Premiere 11 and I cannot get it open, error 126

    I have Windows 8 Pro / 64 bit
    I did install to day:
    Adobe Photoshop 11 and
    Adobe Premiere Elements 11
    When trying to open (load) Adobe Premiere Elements 11 video editing
    there is an error
    ERROR
    LoadLibrary with error 126
    Specified part cannot be found
    I had same problem with Adobe 8 and same now with Adobe 11
    What to do
    or do I return product back, refunding money?
    (I did buy it to day)
    Greetings
    kari

    Hei,
    First: Thank you:
    I succeed, finally, after few uninstalling/ installing driver and software
    /Adobe Pre 11: in differennt order:
    AMD/Ati monitor driver run to dating new correct one did not help,
    ( I had Win7/64 running (pure install with all software), Win8/64 changed
    plenty drivers to "her" own General Drivers (Microsoft), what is wrong!!!! )
    so I delete monitor driver twice!! First delete did not help, so I delete
    again all and run hard disk defrag, re delete driver and forced system to
    load AMD/Ati win8 driver and reboot and re install Adobe Premiere 11 again
    and after that, now call for error 126, so software works also in video
    part.
    Thank you help
    even my explain may not be so clear, but now ok
    (Must say, anyway, plenty "rabbish" is in Windows8 now in, when looking in,
    but too sensitive to delete similarities away, when the order of
    similarities (what is a last one) is not clear and it is not same order
    with Windows in different installations)
    Now
    AsusTek informs for 3 year old motherboard, no win8 correction coming,
    suggest to delete softwares, in question, huh huh.
    It seems Win8 is also now working properly like when I open from Start
    window Worktable, appears an error AsusSetup does not support this
    operating system: WNT_6.2P_64_MCE
    So:
    Windows 8 Pro /64 and
    Adobe and
    Asus
    are still far from pre-co-opertion for a client
    Thank you Adibo, now, first time I did get a proper assistance for software
    problem

  • Cannot find a registry key to disable Annotations

    Hi,
    I am looking to disable Whiteboard for some of our users using registry key.
    I cannot seem to find the local registry key on the PC to disable Whiteboard. I prefer not to use the client policy 'AllowAnnotations'
    Thanks in advance.

    As far as I know this is in-band only and you need to use Set-CsConferencingPolicy. I don't believe there is a registry key for it. Here's a list of keys available for the client, but there isn't one for disabling/enabling annotations: http://lyncdup.com/2012/11/what-lync-2013-client-setting-are-held-in-the-registry/

    Hey lesleybean2014,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    From what I gather, there’s an issue with specific 3rd-party apps not responding on your iPad Air. The article below provides troubleshooting suggestions that’ll resolve most issues related to apps not behaving as expected on iOS devices.
