My phone wont let me do anything. On the locked screen it says hello in a bunch of different languages and when i unlock it it say to choose a Wi-Fi network and will only let me go to emergency calls. How do i fix this?

How do i fix my phone?
Itis trying to make me hook up to a Wi-Fi network and wont take me anywhere other than that and emergency call. I tried to restore it but I can't because I have find my phone on.

I found this article some time ago when I was trying to help someone else in this same situation. This is a copy and paste from the website. The website is provided below for you to read before you try this.
Plug your phone into iTunes
Click setup as a new device
Immediately unplug your phone from the computer
Give it about 30 seconds and iTunes will give a message (I don’t remember the specific, but regarding you unplugging the device and it not completing)
Plug your phone back in
Viola! no restore occurred and you can access everything again
This computer has previously synced with an iPhone or another iOS device.

    The phone may be stuck in headset mode. Rapidly plug and unplug a headset 10x to free up the switch inside the jack.

    many thanks.
    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • My iphone 3 keeps vibrating and reciving no text or call how do i fix this

    my iphone 3 keeps vibrating and reciving no text or call how do i fix this?

    It's possible that number was used for iMessage by someone else - I think phone numbers get "recycled," if you will, and inactive numbers get re-used after a period of time.
    Have your friend contact Apple and see if they can help get the number removed.

  • When I am finished editing and I click on library from develop, LIghtroom will no longer save my sharpening edit. How do I fix this?

    When I am done editing a photo and want to export it, I click on library from
    develop, and Lightroom will no longer save the setting I used in detail for sharpening.This
    has never been a problem before; How do I fix this?

    Are you setting the sharpening at 100% zoom (1:1)? Only when zoomed in is the sharpening applied to the Develop display. Also, LR may not be redrawing the Library preview image file. To force the creation of a new preview, select loupe view (E) and zoom to 1:1 and then out to fit.

  • My ipod classic is connected to a new computer, but only sync 241 songs, out 1825.  How can I fix this?

    I ran into this same problem earlier with my new iPod classic 160 gb. Turns out it could be your files show in iTunes but they aren't connected to the location those music tracks are actually located.
    Does this make any sense?
    You basically have to make sure iTunes is picking your songs from the right music folder via your preferences.
    Option 1: If your iTunes is completely wiped blank and your music is stored in a safe place, backed up, etc. You can do the following:
    Step A. Preferences > iTunes Media Folder Location > choose folder
    **** please be sure to pick a location that is new or different from where you ACTUALLY stored your music to prevent your files from deleting itself as it updates****
    For example, if you stored your music on your Desktop then you wouldn't choose your music folder to be the one in Desktop. You choose the folder where you want your music to go such as C:\My Music or in Mac, you choose the music folder.
    Step B. Once you choose the folder where all your music is stored and you check the box that says "Keep iTunes Media Folder organized" and "Copy Files to iTunes Media when adding to library."
    Step C. This is the part that will make sense. Drag the folder on desktop that houses all your music into iTunes. Because you checked the box "Copy Files to iTunes Media when adding to library," iTunes will copy all the backup music you dragged into the folder location you designated it in "Preferences > iTunes Media Folder Location > choose folder."
    ---- once all that is done, your itunes will have ALL your music tracks linked to the right location on your computer and your iPod will sync with as many or all of the music you desire.
    Hope this helps.

  • Using Windows 7, i-tunes will not connect to i-tunes store.  How do I fix this?

    Using my desktop with Windows 7, my iTunes will not connect to the iTuens store.  All other functions of iTunes works great.  I have all other programs that require internet working just fine..ie browsers (IE, FireFox or Chrome, and all email services) and all work normal. 
    I updated iTunes to current version as of today April 6, 2012 and now it does not work going to the iTunes Store.
    I have about 6-8 different Apple devices that use this iTunes, but right now, none of these are connected with my iTunes, as I was just going in to do some music shopping first before connecting any of them to my PC. 
    How do I fix this?
    Thanks in advance for any and all helpful information!

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • I have a macbook unibody. the dvd driver cannot pull in a cd and when i ma pushing it a little more it pushes it out! does anyone knows what is wrong? or how can i fix it?

    hi everyone!
    i have a macbook unibody and when i put a cd on the dick driver in it doesnt pull it , but when i push it in a little more it push it out!
    does anyone knoes what is wrong? or how can i fix it?
    thnx

    I'm not sure about your question, it's seems somewhat unclear, but if the above command doesn't work another you can try is using the diskutil command as follows:
    "diskutil list"
    or
    "df -h"
    (without "" quotes)
    find where the cd is (usually /dev/disk1 but not always depending on what else you have pluged in)
    then simply use the 'diskutil' command with the 'eject' argument specifying the device found from the previous command '/dev/disk1'(or what ever your optical is labeled as).
    If this isn't your question, I have a macbook unibody late 2009 model and the strangest thing happends, If I downgrade to 10.6.1 my optical drive works fine anything 10.6.8 and above ejects my disk immediately, I have also tested my optical drive out on other OS's such as various linux distro's.  Therefore I have come to the conclusion its a bug. - just food for thought. Hope some of this helps
