On flight right now and laptops just died... Pls help
I am on a flight right now and was in the middle of watching a tv show in iTunes. Then all of a sudden it froze on me. I put the screen down and waited a few mins. Nothing happened. Then I restarted it by holding the power button down. As it started to restart the only screen that came up was the white screen with the apple logo on, then the logo flickered between that and a circle with a line through it. Pls help I have a long flight ahead of me!!
It looks to me like my HD has died.
Sounds like that's a good possibility. It may be a long flight.
One thing you might try while you're on the plane, just in case that's not it: try to start up in Single User Mode and run fsck:

You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

It may be a hardware failure, but start here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
As hardware failures go, WiFi chip failure is a common one. 3G is completely separate, however. -
I am on Itunes right now and i am on a mac computer and i am trying to buy games for an ipod touch that i have but it just lists ipad and iphone apps so if i buy iphone apps will i be able to download them my my ipod 5th generation
No. If it states designed for both iPad and iPhone, then it won't run on an iPod touch.

I've had my iTunes account for about a year now, and I just got the iPhone 5s. I logged into my iTunes account on my phone just fine, and all the music I've bought on iTunes has transferred to my phone, but the cds I burned haven't. The sync button is gray so I can't click on it. The songs from the cds on iTunes are checked and should sync but haven't. Please help!
Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download -

Why do my speakers not play music? I know they work because when I go I change my ringtone all the sounds play. I am not a very happy costumer right now and would like an answer to my problem. Thanks.
What happens when you play music? Do the hardware volume controls work when using the Music app?

I currently have a basic phone but I would like to switch to a smart phone. I don't have an upgrade right now and none of the other phones on the plan have an upgrade either (4 phones in total, 2 smart phones and 2 basic). Is it possible to get a phone from a 3rd party, instead of buying a phone from Verizon at full price, to switch with the basic phone?
i have a basic prepaid phone and was given a samsung android verizon gave me several options from going to a contract or doing prepaid or month to month even got a free sim card

i am in Iraq right now and i cannot make any schedule for having a call with your support team , however, i forgot the answer for security questions , and also previously i have not summited a rescue Email address is there any way to reset my account?
Please be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. These are user-to-user support forums, so in almost all cases the only people who will reply to your posts are, like me, your fellow users.
As to whether you can work with Apple via email on this issue I can't say for sure, but you can contact them via this web page:
http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/contact/
and see if they can help. It's mostly going to be an issue of you being able to prove to them that you are the account owner.

Hey there i downloaded apps using another apple id than the one am using right now and i need to update the apps they keep asking me for the old one that i dont have any more what to do please
Apps are permanently tied to the ID used to purchase them.
Go to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/ and re-set th password for the old one.
Then, log into the app store with it and update the apps purchased with that ID. -
I'm in the US right now and want to buy ipad2 wifi 3G. Can I change the SIM card when I get back to my country in Indonesia?
Yes, as long as you purchase the GSM version (AT&T) and your Indonesian carrier supports an iPad with a micro-sim. Unlike the iPhone in the USA, the iPad is not locked to a carrier.

I need to burn a cd from itunes. There is no burn option...at all. I've tried right-clicking and file command. Please help
I have Windows 7 on a Dell. Open and play iTunes in the compatability mode and use Windows XP (service pack 2). Disregard any messsages to disable the compability mode. This has worked for me. I have also reinstalled iTunes and played with burn speeds etc. These ideas did not work. Compatability mode works.

My ipohn 4 died last night and wont turn on pls help me
my ipohn 4 died last night and wont turn on pls help me
Hi Punkermama,
If the screen on your iPhone is dark but the phone otherwise seems to be responding (sounds, etc), an Accessability feature known as Screen Curtain may have inadvertently been activated. You may find the following section of the iOS 7 for iPhone manual helpful (Apendix A - Accessability, in the Voiceover section on pg 126):
Turn the screen curtain on or off. Triple-tap with three fingers. When the screen curtain is on, the screen contents are active even though the display is turned off.
