If your iPhone suddenly freezes or is just not working right, you can do a hard reset by following these simple instructions:
Press and hold the Home button (big circle below the screen) and the Sleep/Wake button (on top of the iPhone) simultaneously.
Hold both buttons until the iPhone shuts off and begins to restart.

I get to the file download window to install itunes and push run, but after it starts to install, it stops and I get an error message that installation can no continue and everything is uninstalled. It tells me to check with my software company to resolve. What does that mean?
Repair your Apple software update.
Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install
If you don't find ASU, go to Control Panel:
START > CONTROL PANEL > Add n Remove Programs / highlight ASU and click CHANGE then REPAIR, -
After installing iOS 7 camera stopped working normally. I can't take pictures with the back camera only the front camera. All was good before the update. Please fix this bug.
Hi Midnightbrat,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The troubleshooting steps for the camera on the iPad are similar to the iPhone: I've highlighted the pertinent steps below:
Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Camera
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tapping Settings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Third-party cases can interfere with the autofocus/exposure feature and the flash; try removing the case if you have image-quality issues with photos.
Try turning the iPad off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try switching between the front and the back cameras to verify if the issue persists on both.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

Since I installed ios 6.1 in my iPhone 4, I can't sync it with iTunes. Can annyone help me? I have already reinstalled iTunes and reseted the iPhone, but it still doesn't sync. Thank you.
Hello Sean,
It sounds like you are constantly needing to restore your phone because it keeps going into recovery mode. Usually putting a device into recovery mode and restoring it can help isolate an issue to your iPhone hardware if an issue persists afterwards. I would try manually putting it into recovery mode and restoring it 1 more time:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
If that does not resolve it the symptoms indicate to me that it is a hardware issue causing this to happen and would seek service for it:

TS1413 computer stuck after mountain lion osx install
computer is stuck after trying to download mountain lion osx?
Hi , and a warm welcome to the forums!
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, or are running 10.7+, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
If 10.7.0 or later...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partitiion & use Disk Utility from there. -
After installing iOS 6, my iPhone 4S locked and I can't unlock it.
This happened after attempting to updating to iOS 6.
It seems to be stuck in an instruction mode. Whatever I touch a female voice tells me what the function is. E.G. trying to enter my passcode it says "Two abc, Three def, four ghi, five jkl " (Not my real passcode obviously).
I can't connect to iTunes as I'm prompted for a passcode on the phone, which I can't do.Nope.
I have just managed to enter 2 digits of my passcode into the phone before the voiceover cut in.
After repeated tries I managed to enter all 4 digits and teh phone activated. I then hit the home button 3 times to turn voiceover off and am now trying to re-install iOS 6. Seems to be working at this stage. -
I declined iCloud when installing ios 6 on my iPhone 4S. How can I change my mind now?
When installing ios 6 on my iPhone 4S, I was having problems with my password for iCloud. So I declined to activate iCloud (and Facebook, and Twitter, and FaceTime), thinking that I would be able to activate later. But I do not find any way of going back. How can it be done?
Thanks.
Alain FDo you have an iCloud account established? If not, go to www.icloud.com and create an account for yourself then go back to your phone and try again.

My iPhone is stuck on the apple screen. How can I power it off?
How can I power off my phone,it is stuck on the apple screen?
Hello GrayLady6,
Thank you for your question. It sounds like your phone is not responding and is stuck at the Apple logo. I would next reset the device with this process:
Reset
You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
From: Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If this does not resolve your issue, I would next attenot putting the device into recovery mode and then restoring it with iTunes:

I've installed ios 6 on my iPhone 4. I can't find "shared streaming photo" and "iCloud tabs"
Escuse me I'm an italian boy. I've installed ios 6 yesterday on my iPhone 4 and on my iPod Touch 4g. In my iPod i can't find the tabs in the icloud tabs (safari). In my iPhone 4 i can't find shared photo stream and also the tabs in the iCloud tabs. i've surfed in internet with the two devices but the folder of the iCloud tabs remains empty . why? please help me.
For iCloud tabs be sure that both devices are signed into the same iCloud account, and that you have opened multiple web pages rather than always opening new sites in the same web page.
Shared photo streams are inititiated by opening the camera roll in the thumbnail (grid) view, then tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to share, tap the Share button, tap Photo Stream, select the email address of the people you want to share these photos with, fill in a name for it, turn on Public if you want them to be able to view it on icloud.com, type Next, fill in comments if you want, the tap Post. -
It is an iPhone 5.
The Problem is resolved by :
Click on the "Start" button. Click "Run." Type the word "cmd" in the open box. When the DOS screen comes up, type "netsh winsock reset." Press "Enter." Type "exit" to close the DOS window and go back to Windows.
Restart the computer.
Thanks to my friend Sunil.
