NEW IPHONE 3GS DOES NOT START
I just got my new iphone 3gs yesterday and have not even had the time to have a nice look at it coz it just does not start.
When I put the phone to charge the apple logo appears and after that just the sign of USB connector pointing towards itunes (with the itunes logo) appears and phone stops. I had it charged for more than four hours but I don’t see the battery charging status icon anywhere.
When I press the ON switch on the top the same thing repeats itself meaning it gets stuck in the USB connector pointing towards itunes (with the itunes logo) sign. Totally confused and frustrated. Kindly assist. Lastly as i am new to the apple brand could anyone guide me towards the Software for the IPHONE 3GS i require to install on my desktop in order to sync,email etc.thanks for the advises in advance
Obviously it's telling you that you need to connect your iphone to your itunes to activate it, otherwise it won't work.
Firstly download itunes, under Downloads. then install then plug in your iphone, and follow the instructions to activate it. Then you should be set and start using the phone.

My IPhone 3GS does not start. i tried to reset it, by holding the the sleep and home buttons at the same time approx 10 sec. but nothing appears...
thanx for the sheet. i tried to restore it and place it into recovery mode. but my iphone does not show any reaction at all. itunes can not connect the iphone, due to error 0xE8000084, du you have any idea? i will now try to charge it during more hours. if this doesn't help, i will bring it to an apple store. I assume that i'll need a new battery.

Camera on new iPhone 3GS does not work
My husband got a brand new iPhone 3GS yesterday from the iShop here in Gateway Durban, and the camera does not work at all. You can see through the lense, but non of the touchscreen controls work (ie access to camera roll, take picture, swap to video.) Am I missing something obvious? This is perculiar, in that it is his second iPhone and I have the iPhone 4 so you would think between us we would be able to figure it out, but it does seen truly STUCK. Any ideas?
Have you tried to restore the phone?

Iphone 3gs does not turn on after ios 6 update
After the ios6 update, my iphone 3gs does not turn on. I see the apple logo, after a minute, it boots again and i see the logo again. This process seems to continue like a circle. After a search the net, i see that i am not the only one. A quick fix and suggestions please, as i need my phone of course.
Btw, Apple, i know that this is an old hardware and i will buy the new iphone 5 when it is available here in my country in December. But of course, you claşmed this update supports my 3gs, you should immediately find a fix
Regards..Well, i don't see an another solution possible; you should try again and again to restore. Btw, my phone seemed to operate strange (even the stock mail app began to crash) so i tried hard reset (home button + sleep/wake button until seeing the apple logo). After that i found my phone again in dfu mode this night so began restoring again now.
It seems that apple didn't tested ios6 enough with the 3GS. I have a 32 GB phone so this will be near 60 gb download from the icloud over my broadband connection. -

What do you mean by "restoring definitions"?
What EXACTLY is your problem?
"does not works" is just a bit vague. -

Upper speaker in my new iPhone 4 does not work. When somebody calls me I hear only strange sounds. Please, help!
A couple of other things you can try -
With my 2010 Ford Fusion (and SYNC) I received the same not optimized message a few times. There were several things I had to do but eventually, I got it cleared up. Not sure exactly how this will translate to your Toyota but maybe it will.
- Try resetting the iPhone via a power off/on or a hard reset where you hold the home and power buttons. Then power back on and plug into your USB port.
- In my case I had an issue with SYNC in my car where I needed to reset the USB port in my car. Not sure if Toyota has something similar. The fact that you said it won't charge makes me wonder if the USB port got disabled in your car. This happened in my car and an easy reset for me was to remove a fuse for a few minutes and replace.
- Update your iPhone in iTunes and resync it there. Then try connecting again in yor car.
- Delete and re pair your iPhone from your Toyota system
Hope something here helps. Thanks -
my new iphone 5c does not pair with Macpro while Macpro display pairing via blue tooth and also my new iphon 5c does search other smart phones while Macpro does so
The iPhone supports only a limited number of profiles and will only pair with a computer for internet sharing (tethering, hotspot if your cellular carrier plan supports that). http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3647

my iphone 3gs does not have the update software button how do i update it?
It isn't in the device pane. If you have selected your iPhone, then on the right side you should see information on what is contained on your iPhone. There should be a number of tabs towards the top, Summary, Info, Music, Photos, etc. Not necessarily in that order. On the Info tab is where you should find the tab. It should look like this.

Iphone 4 does not start, logo apple stays on screen
Help! My iphone 4 does not start.
The epple logo stays on the screen.
It seems like the setup keeps repeating.If you haven't tried, Reset the phone by pressing the power and home buttons at the same time until the phone turns off. With itunes open try turning the phone back on if it didn't by itself. Itunes should ask you then to restore the phone.

Go to appleid.apple.com and sign in with your current Apple ID
Change the Apple ID to the old one and save changes.
Sign in on the device with the same password for your account.
After logging in and signing out of Facetime, Messages, iCloud and itunes and app store, go back to Apple ID.com and change it back to your normal Apple ID.
Go to your email account and reverify your account by clicking on the Verify now link
Now re-login to those services with your normal Apple ID and password.
