I have a first generation iphone that all the sudden would not respond to any touch on the home screen, but would respond to powering off. It would also respond to the ipod play menu on the lock screen. Because my iphone is out of warranty I descide to get the 3g iphone and just my luck as soon as I go to play with my new toy it does not respond and when it does respond it does what it wants to. If i push settings it wants notes. I have to slide my finger up and to the right in the middle of the screen in order to turn the thing off. Hopefully my luck changes to good when I try to get them replaced.

  • Touch Screen not working on Brand new iPhone 5...why?

    I bought my iPhone 5 yesterday from Meteor. I had a party to go to last night so I just left the phone to charge and backed up my ld one to iTunes. This morning I plugged the 5 into laptop to start transferring data across. Everything was ok, add to re-load apps. etc. but the norm. This afternoon I went to open the phone and the touch screen just doesnt work. I've tried the re-set - holding Home and the Power button a hundred times now, no joy. I've plugged it back into i Tunes, restored it again, no joy.
    My head is melted because the guy in shop was trying to put me off it in case of any issues having to send the phone to Apple but I've had the iPhone for years and have had no problems with 3GS, 4, 4s, so I was eager to stay with it. PLease tell me this is a software fix.....please.

    take the phone back,

  • Siri not working on brand new iPhone 4S - using 4G or Wi-Fi

    Siri not working on brand new iPhone 4S - using 4G and Wi-Fi
    I have tried multiple times over numerous days in multiple locations
    Any hints?

    Well to start your iPhone 4S does not have 4G... it just shows 4G at the top of the screen..
    Try turning SIRI off and on.. if that does not work
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings..
    Because SIRI is a network connection to a server nothing more.. it is not on your device so nothing is wrong with your phone..
    Also SIRI is in BETA... and not 100%

  • HT1430 Mic not working on BRAND NEW iphone 4 - pathetic!

    First time out of the box, and the mic on my brand new iPhone4 ordered from Apple doesn't work!  Not for calls, not for Voice Memos, nothing!
    Presumably a hardware issue, so I guess it will be going back unless anyone has any ideas of what might be wrong?

    Maybe hardware, maybe not... did you restore a backup of an older phone to the new one?
    If so, try setting it up as a new phone and see if the problem persists. It may be corruption in the backup used to set it up.

  • Ear receiver doesn't work on brand new iphone 4.

    Whenever I receive calls or make calls I don't hear the person on the other end, the ear receiver doesn't work. Update is fine (iOS 6.0.1) and as I mentioned it's brand new. Please help.

    May I know what message you get when you try to access BBM? is it accessible? unable to send and receive?

  • Brand new iphone wont update, stuck in recovery mode

    So I just bought a brand new iPhone 5S today, and when I plugged it into iTunes I saw that there was an update for iOS 7.1.2. When I tried to update my phone, iTunes downloaded the update but wouldn't apply it to the phone, instead giving me a "waiting for iPhone" message.  After a while I tried reconnecting the phone but iTunes stopped recognizing it and my phone was stuck with the iTunes logo and charger on-screen.  I then put my phone in recovery mode - no results.  I tried syncing it with another computer, but I can't restore the phone without it also installing 7.1.2, which doesn't work and just gets stuck on "preparing to restore iPhone."  Is there anything I can possibly do to make my new phone work again? Did 7.1.2 actually just kill my phone?

    Hello rph30,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    First, since your iPhone is not being recognized by iTunes, even though it is in recovery mode, please follow the appropriate link below for the computer you own:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    Then ultimately go through the recovery process:

  • After i got it 10 mints my brand new iphone 6's screen begin to flickering then turn black

    weeks ago i ordered a iPhone 6 on apple.nz website, i got it delivered yesterday afternoon, 10 min after first turning on the screen of my brand new iPhone 6 began flickering a little, i thought it will be fine, but then the situation getting worse. At very beginning, i can fix it with holding the home key, but later this solution did not work, the screen flickering badly then  the whole screen faded into black. i have to restarted it couple times to make my phone work again.
    so this morning i chat with the online service ten call the service number of New Zealand, they asked me to restore my iPhone by iTunes, so i did. but after that the flickering get more frequently , and the speed of turn black is getting faster.
    it makes me stop all my work trying to make this iPhone 6 back to work, i spent about 4 hours in total  calling the service center. i feel REALLY ANGRY NOW!
    also i noticed that when i open the safari the home page is Apple China, I  saw some  comments about the products from China have many  functional problem. If it was really i sincerely hope the apple company could take this seriously.

    Okay, so after the call to restore the device and it didn't work, what did they tell you to do next? Since the device is brand new, it is still covered under the warranty, and it is still under the 14 day return policy. Take advantage of that and get a new one. You think that an occasional defective device is that bad? You are not going to get 100% perfect devices. Most companies are happy with 10% rejects getting out into the retail market. Given the record number of these things sold, you realize what 10% is?

  • The touch screen on my nearly brand new Pavillion lap top running windows 8 no longer works.

    The touch screen on my nearly brand new Pavillion lap top running windows 8 no longer works.  Cant use calibration tools as there's no response to touch.  No option in control panal to turn on or off touch capability.  I have no computer background so cant really get to technical.  Is something simple turned on or off located in some mysterious place?  F key or something?   Bad machine?  Thanks for any input.  Sarah

    I found the driver at the above link.  I installed the driver, disabled my graphics card and rebooted.  The touchscreen worked.  Then I enabled the graphics card.  So far so good.  Hope I dont have to do this routine too often.
    Good luck with it.

  • Iphone 4 set up query have a brand new iphone 4, I have plugged it in using the wall charger and it does not seem to be doing anything. Trying to turn it on it is not working either. Is there some vital part of set up I have missed or is this a dud??

    I have just received a brand new iphone 4 in the mail. I have plugged it in using the apple wall charger for around 3 hours now and it does not seem to be doing anything. Tried to plug it into the computer, again no response. Trying to turn it on has not had any success either. Should I be concerned that the screen is blank and not showing a charging symbol?? Have I missed some vital step in set up??
    Thanks for your help!!!!

    Try resetting the phone:
    Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.
    Then, launch iTunes & connect your phone...what happens?

    Thanks for the straightforwardness roaminggnome - I wasn't sure if this problem qualified as deseving a reset. Unfortunately, for some reason I can't explain, your response remained undisclosed to me for a while, the next reply after yours took preference and I ended up doing as Meg St.Clair's susgested and initiated download, installation and syncing of Smartsync which is now taking ages to finish... If problem persists shall do the resetting and restoring.

    Brand new iPhone 4 (unlocked), got it activated yesterday, and speakers doesn't work, did restore back to factory settings, not luck, any suggestions. This iPhone was purchased in US, currently in India, will Apple support in India?

    There are many threads on this forum regarding speaker not working issues.  You might try searching them.  Hopefully you'll find the answer you need.
    BTW, the iPhone only has ONE speaker.

  • I am trying to activated a brand new iPhone 4s but the serial number isn't working. Suggestions?

    I am trying to activated a brand new iPhone 4s but the serial number isn't working. Suggestions?

    Are you getting any error message or other data that helps to understand why the SR # is not working?  Sometimes when entering a serial number a letter or number is entered incorrectly because a 1 looks like an l or an s looks like a 5.  Make certain that this type of an entry error is not your problem.
