So my iPhone screen is completely shattered and it does not respond to touchscreen. I tried unlocking it with the thumb reader, but it did not work. I have since gotten a new iPhone, but I would like to get my pictures off the old iPhone. Any help would be appreciated.
Simply restore from the latest backup you made to iCloud or iTunes, prior to the damage incident. You were backing up to iTunes regularly, or at least using iCloud to backup wireless & automatically... right?
If you cannot make a backup of the damaged device at this point, and you do not have a backup of the data on the device, then you cannot access the data on the device, and it is lost. What would you have done if instead of simply being damaged, it had been lost or stolen?
This is a harsh lesson. Now you know why it is recommended to backup regularly. Learn from your mistake, and don't repeat it.
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support

i recently just got a new computer. im trying to sync all my music into my itunes but for some reason its not working. it says my computer is not authorized. i have no idea what to do can someone help me?

If you're using iTunes 11 on Windows, press the Alt and S keys. Otherwise, click on Store at the top of the iTunes application window(Windows) or the top of the computer's screen(Mac OS X).

Mac and Mac models are picky about the RAM the Mac needs to see and use.
As you have found out, the 1067 speed RAM will not work in your year and model iMac.
You need the 1333 speed RAM.
If, you can return the RAM for a refund, do it!
If not, try online Mac RAM source and seller Crucial memory. They have a table that matches your Mac to the correct and reliable RAM. You may need to contact them to see whether or not they ship to South Africa, though.
If Crucial dpesn't work out, here's the specs for your year and model iMac that you need to seek out and purchase.
Maximum Memory
32 GB (Actual) 16 GB (Apple)
Memory Slots
4 - 204-pin PC3-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
Good Luck!

Hi abbyntaff,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
Take a look at one of the articles below, the first iss for windows computers and the second is for Macs. They provide troubleshooting tips that should help resolve issues that would cause an iPhone to not be recognized by a computer.

PLEASE HELP! My screen is broken and I need to sync!

My screen broke, everything else is working fine, and I want to sync the broken phone with the computer one last time. I need the phone numbers. I have a Palm 755P from Verizon.
I have the plug that is the USB end connected to my computer, and the prong thing that attaches to the bottom of the device with a "sync bottom" on it. My touch screen is broken and is many shades of vibrant color
Is there a way to perform sync or navigate through menus without using the screen? Please help!

I am connected to a Mac with OS 10.4. Thank you!

I tried to register my stolen iPhone onto My Profile but it says that it's registered under another apple ID (which is not mine) What does this mean? Does it mean the person who stole my phone is using my phone under another Apple ID?!

Hi everyone,
My iphone and Ipad got stollen yesterday...
I registered my Ipad onto "my profile" but when I tried to register my Iphone 4 onto "My Profile" it says that the product has been registered under ANOTHER apple ID. What does this mean?! Does this mean that the thief is using my phone under a new apple ID?!
I am getitng abit paranoid because when I tried to download a new app onto my macbook pro, it says that someone had accessed my account from a new computer. I am so scared.. as I know that if they are able to access my apple ID account they can see my billing/card details. I tried to delete my billing address and card details on my apple ID account to prevent this from occuring but I can't. Please help
Many thanks,
Kim

You should change your AppleID password NOW. And if it says it was registered under another AppleID, the thief has probably done it.

HT4113 My screen in broken and I need to sync/backup my phone. Please help!!!

My iphone 5 screen went out on me (it is blacked out) and I need to sync/backup my phone before I get it serviced for a new screen. Unfortuantely, I am unable to sync my device to my itunes on my macbook, because it is asking me to enter my passcode to unlock my phone. The only problem is my screen doesn't work so I am unable to do so! I am able to call Siri on my phone, but even she is saying she cannot unlock my phone even if I verbally told her my password. I already have an apple appointment set up, but I didn't realize this question until I got home. I understand my itunes purchases are retrievable- it's my personal photos, notes, videos etc that I am trying to save. My cloud backup is already maxed out, but there is still more stuff on my phone to salvage. I would like to have my phone info backed up before they fix/restore my screen. I risk losing everything! (disclaimer: My previous laptop has been broken so I was unable to do a recent backup, hence my frustration). Please, if you can offer me any constructive advice on how to sync my disabled screen and passcode-locked phone, that would be greatly appreciated!

HT1351 I received a new iPod nano for christmas and recently tried to sync my music library without success. Any suggestions

I recently received a nano for Christmas A1446 and am having trouble syning my current music library. Does anyone have a suggestion?

iTunes: Syncing media content to iPod
See if this helps. If not, see if this is involved:
iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows
iPod not appearing in iTunes

My computer crashed so I tried to sync all my stuff to another computer and lost 300 songs when I synced my iPod to the other computer how do I get them back I don't have them saved in iCloud and I can't get them back from the other computer

Is there anyway to get these songs back also I had music that I had downloaded from emusic and installed some from CDs.

If they are still on the iPod then:

Otherwise they are gone and you will have to get them from where you obtained them before.

I just bought an new iMac 27 and is trying to transfer all my data from a late 2009 iMac 27

I need your help. I connected the old Mac as a disk to the new one with Firewire / Thunderbolt adapter, went through the Migration Assistant menu. The new iMac rebooted and started with setup process again, did this twice then I tried to restore from Time Machine backup, only the user account and data. It started well off but now it hangs with 4.31 hours left. What can I do ?, please help men on this.
Best regards,Oli

Since it's a new machine, contact Apple's Support, formerly Apple Express Lane and let them sort things out for you.

I recently found my Ipod touch 1st generation and was trying to erase all the content on the ipod. It now won't turn on at all, it looks like it is working but it just never goes to the homescreen. any ideas?

I have tried connecting it to the computer and that doesn't seem to work either. At this point I do not know what else to do. Can anyone help me get this Ipod touch fixed?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
