Phone barely charges and won't hold the charge it does get
Yesterday I went for a run and had my phone on me....after the run, I noticed I had got a little sweat on the main screen (it was up against my body) Ever since then, I can not get it to charge above 50% (I'm lucky to get that much out of it) and whatever charge I can get, it drops FAST!! I had 35% and it died in about 20 minutes. I even had it plugged into my charger and was texting someone back and lost 3% battery sending that text while it was plugged in. I checked the headphone jack and the usb dock to see if the pink was there to show water damage and it was not. It is still white. My phone gets really hot when charging as well. There is no repair place in the vicinity I can go to until the weekend and I can not have my phone doing this the rest of the week. I NEED my phone for work! I am unfortunately a Verizon customer who is only 3 weeks away from my upgrade but they WILL NOT allow me to upgrade any earlier. Can someone PLEASE HELP! Oh and I will say this is NOT the first time I have gone running with my phone and got a little sweat on the screen...I just honestly CAN NOT think of ANYTHING else I did that would cause any problems...

uh my phone is broken and won't turn on. so I'm getting a new phone and need to back it up but i need to unlock my passcode to backup but my phones locked sooooo idk ;/
Nothing you can do, sorry to say. If it will not turn on there is absolutely nothing you can do now to backup what is on it. The whole point of a backup is to have made it before disaster strikes. Now, with a dead iPhone, all you can do is accept the loss of your data.
You will be able to re-download iTunes and App store purchases since they are tied to your AppleID, not your device.
Have you been using iCloud for backup? If you have, then you should have a backup in iCLoud you can use to restore your replacement phone with. iCloud backups are automatic (once every 24hrs, whenever your device is on wifi, plugged in and asleep). -
When I select a local phone number from my contacts, the iphone 4 won't ring the number, instead it tries to send an email. Does anyone know if this can be fixed with a setting change?
Thanks for the reply, good try, I thought of that myself and made sure of that this morning, but that is already all done, and as it happens, the contacts are exactly the same as in our other phone (3GS) which works perfectly, but the iphone 4 won't dial ANY local number, instead it tries to send an email. EVERY TIME. most frustrating. I am really trying to work out if there is a setting somewhere (like the area code etc) or if this is a warranty issue.
Thanks again for trying to help! -
My battery was fully charged. The notice for an update came up so I told it to start. Then the phone shut off and won't turn back on. When I plug it back in, I can hear it "revving" but it still won't turn on. Any ideas?
Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
If this does not work, try to connect in recovery mode, explained here:

Go through the steps here and see if anything works for you.
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on - Apple Support
You might have to bite the bullet and restore the device if nothing else works. If that doesn't bring it back to life, make an appointment at an Apple Store and let take a look at it. -

my phone shut off and won't turn back on
Connect iPhone to Wall Charger for about 10 minutes. If may turn ON itself. If still OFF, keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, this can take about 20 seconds of holding both buttons while on charger.

When trying to download apps on my new iPad I keep getting prompted to update my security questions for my safety. When I choose this option it freezes and won't load the questions, however, when I hit not now it won't let me download. What do I do?
Reboot your iPad and then see if you can set the security questions.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. -
The hinge between my screen and my computer (macbook pro retina) has cracked and doesn't hold the screen anymore. Can I fix it without changing my screen. And if it's still on guarantee does Apple have to repair it?
Apple can fix any and all of their computers. Whether it would be charged to you would be the question. Do you have AppleCare?
Accidental damage is not covered by AppleCare.

I was recently prompted to update iPhoto and make changes to the library. I did it but it keeps hanging up in step 5 or 6 and won't complete the cycle. I have used force quit, rebooted and started again several times. How do i get this to work?
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
If that fails:
Restore from your back up, repair the Library and try again. -
My iPhone 4s shuts off and won't go on again without doing the on and home button hold. It's only 1-2 months old. Why?
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
*An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed. -

Are you using any other settings? Are you overclocking at all?
CD/DVD is a generic term used for all DVD drives, so it should automatically detect your installed DVD drive and use that to boot if it's set up as the boot deviI
I put it back to default. No overclocking. I agree about the CD/DVD is a generic term but the motherboard disagrees with you. Also when I "save change and reboot and go to Change setting info my DVD is disabled and is not set to first boot and there is no place to change it. The boot disk I'm using works fine on other computers and I also tried another DVD drive but the BIOS just isn't letting me boot to my DVD?
