The screen on my phone just... died or something. It went black, and I can't get anything to come on. I know it's not dead because I can still hear the text tone. What can I do?
The phone was fine an hour ago, but I look down at it to check all of the texts I was recieving and the screen wouldn't turn on. I could still hear the ring tones and such, but nothing is turning on. I plug it in and it'll ding telling me that it's plugged in about three or four times. I don't know what's up with it.
I could not believe it, but it worked. If you have this problem, Here's my word to you: Don't give up! I tried this "magical" fix three times last night. Nothing (...x3!). Then, today I put it upside down on my ottoman and hit the back quite hard. I have no idea how this works and - even a s a scientist - I don"t care! My iPad is up and running again. Go figure... but I am thrilled!!! Thank you, forum. I never would have thought of this on my own. And you just saved me several hundred $$$!

so i dropped my iphone 4 in class and the screen is cracked. it wont turn on so i went home and connected it into my itunes and the phone just keeps beeping like every ten seconds and the phone lights up just a little. What does this all mean?
It means you should take it to the Genius Bar. You will no doubt need to buy an out of warranty replacement.

Is your battery out of juice, have you tried charging it? If the battery is flat dead it may take a few minutes after plugging it in before the screen will show anything.

i need help. i tried updating the software on my ipod touch, and it looked like it was working fine, because it said "verifying update", but suddenly the screen went black and when i tried to turn it back on, it only had a picture of a usb chord pointing to the itunes icon. what do i do?
Your iPod has dropped into Recovery mode. You'll need to restore it via iTunes on your computer.

ı delete mac os x lion on my hard disk and ı format it ntfs.ı install windows xp.now ı have a mac os x snow leopard install dvd but it isn't working. ı think it's not working because of my harddisk format is ntfs.what can ı do for install mac os x ?thanks
The HD must be partitioned with GUID partition map and Mac OS extended (journalled) file system. Do not partition the drive into two. When you have a working OS X system, use Boot Camp to create the Windows partition and install Windows.
If you're trying to install Snow Leopard on a Mac that was delivered with Lion installed =
1. It may not be possible at all depending on the Mac.
2. If it is possible, it cannot be done with the retail SL disc which is 10.6.3
3. The only way it can be done is to obtain the original grey discs which would have come with the Mac if it hadn't had Lion installed in the supply chain. They will be at least 10.6.6 and more likely 10.6.7 or .8. You can try to obtain those from Apple Customer Services.

iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
Otherwise
Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>GeneralReset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I am used to working on duel monitors. I bought a new MacBook Pro 15' yesterday, the adapter for my monitor, and the monitor is on with the generic background but I can't drag any windows over to it. I can do it on PCs but can't figure out on the Mac. Can someone please help the noob out?
Thanks
NikkiThe blue blocks in that screen are Icons for your actual screens. Their sizes are proprtional to the number of pixels in each screen. They can be dragged to new locations relative to each other -- as long as they are touching at some point. You are expected to drag them so that they correspond with the actual screen location on your bench, so that the movement from one scrren to the other is intuitive.
The white stripe represents the menuBar. It can also be dragged to any screen, and that screen will then be the one with the MenuBar. It will also become the screen with the Startup icons on it. -

My IPad has gone blank. I was checking my mail and it started flashing and then it froze then it went blank. All I have is a screen saver picture. I can use Suri but nothing else. HELP???? I have turned it off and turned it back on still nothing.
Reset the device:

Connect the iPad to a power source to charge the battery just in case. -

I get my emails sent to my Ipad 1 and when I try to open the excel files, they come up in a sort of word doc. how can I get them to come over on excel
I was still typing my first post while you had already responded.
Maybe I am taking your last post the wrong way but reread your post. If I am taking it the wrong way - please accept my apology in advance.

Where do you state that you need to email the files to someone else?
Where do you state that you need to edit them?
This was my response ....
You can't edit any of these files without a compatible iPad app like Documents to Go (Excel, Word) or Pages (Word files).
You can open and view the files as mail attachments but you will not be able to edit them. Explain exactly what you are doing and maybe you can get meaningful instructions.
Basically I said the same thing as Julian and I thought that maybe if you explained EXACTLY what you were trying to do, it would be helpful.
Sorry for not being a mind reader. Your second post ...
I thought I had already explained, I get excel spreadsheets emailed to me I need to open them, read them, edit them and send them on to another person,
That is not what you asked the first time around.

how can i get my POP email pushed to my iphone5 instantly (not every 15 minutes) like my old blackberry did?
You can't, RIM uses a proprietary mail server (in Canada) that pushes mail to BB devices. You will need to get an iCloud, Yahoo, Gmail Exchange, or Exchange mail account to pust mail to your iPhone.
