Where can I get my iphone 4S fixed? I can't get any help! Not even from Apple!
My sim card reader in my iphone 4S is damaged and does not read my SIM card. Unfortunately, my phone carrier will not help me. I went to the Mac Store, they told me it had to be fixed but can't do it through them. I tried Apple website and no luck. I even called both the Support and the main Apple corporate head office in Cupertino which is closed even if its past 8 Am pacific time. The issue is that I am customer in Panama City, Republic of Panama. There is no support or any post purchase service from Apple here. I am willing to ship my phone to where ever Apple wants to get it fixed. If I only could ask someone from Apple...
Assuming you purchased the iPhone in the USA then you can only obtain serice and support IN the USA
You can not mail or courier the iPhone to Apple they do not accept international service requests
Either take the iPhone to an Apple store in US or mail it to a friend or relative in US for them to handle the repair and then return the iphone to you
If you purchased from another country then exactly the same procedure must happen but to that country Apple Store
Tha iphone warranty and post warranty service is not international

My iphone died today and now it wont boot up not even a apple sign is sowin any help???
i updated my iphone 3gs yesterday via itunes, now today the battery seemed to drain very fast and my phone died, iv had it on charge and noe it wont turn on not even an apple sign shows.... im at a loser here and really need help.... i have tried to reset the iphone and also tried to put it in recovery mode and nothing is working....... please help!!! cheers ash
Thats the flat battery screen.
- Try another cable
- Try another wall adaptor
- Check the iPhone charging port to see if there is any damage or debris
If the iPhone does not charge with known working cables/adaptors I would suggest to take the iPhone into an Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider for evaluation and if need be service. -
My wife and i have an iPhone 5 6.1.2 firmware.. We both are having horrible wifi signals. We have done everything we can.. What update will fix this? I get full bars on my iPad 2 through my whole house.. Be standing right beside the router with iPhones and it cuts in and out.. Drops from 3 wifi bars to 1
I am having the same problem with brand new Ipad Mini at my house.
It connects to the WiFi fine - but will not pull an IP address in DHCP mode, or if I set all the IP info statically - it still will not get any network access.
This doesn't look like a WiFi issue, as it does connect and is seen by the WiFi Access Point. All the normal WiFi fix stuff doesn't help.
- Using a Dlink DAP-2553 which is less than 2 months old.
Other devices connect fine, including Ipad 2.
This same Mini worked fine at another house and also connected to a mobile hotspot fine....so seems to be some weird IP issue with maybe this Access Point or maybe the older Router that I have (older Netgear)?
I am actually a network engineer and still have not been able to find a solution. Both the Ipad Mini and the Dlink WAP have the latest firmware loaded.
Wondering if anyone has found a solution to this problem. -
I just got home from the Apple Store getting my iphone 4S fixed. I now have "Invalid Sim". Can someone please tell me what to do?
What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>Carrier?
Did it work with that sim in the Apple Store? -
I saved photos from my Macbook Pro onto my Iphone (using itunes, 4 years ago). My macbook is now dead and I need to get the photos I saved off of my iphone 3GS transferred to a pc. Any help... From my PC I can only access "internal storage"
The iphone is not a storage/backup device. The picture sycn is one way - computer to iphone. The photos are also reduced in size when synced to iphone so they are not of the original quality
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup of your computer.
Have you failed to do this?
If so, not good at all, you can e-mail the pics to yourself - keep in mind they will never be of the original quality -
Am I the only one who gets exited out of everything on my iPhone?! I will open up Instagram and not even 2 minutes later it will close down. How do I fix this?! It's so annoying.
I will assume you are using a slower iPhone 4 on iOS 7 if you are experiencing such problems so frequently. You might already be trying this, but my first suggestion would be to double tap the home button and see what you have running. You might not be quitting any of the apps you open. To stop an app from running and slowing down your phone, after double-tapping, slide the preview cards up for apps you don't need to run.

The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it. -
hi my ipod touch 8gb won't turn on just get the apple sign in middle of screen and my laptop also can't find my ipod wen i plug it in? any help would be greatly appreciated thank you.
OR use this method
1. Press-hold the Home button (big circle below the screen)and the Sleep/Wake button (on top of the iPhone) simultaneously.
2. Continue holding both buttons (Ignore the"Slide to power off") until the iPhone shuts off and begins to restart.
3.You may let go when you see the silver Applelogo.

Installed iTunes 11 64 bit now get "The iPhone cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes." Uninstalled and installed twice no help. windows 7 64 bit, iPhone 5 OS 5.1
Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -
My wife and I get our iPhone 4s tomorrow. Should we put them both on the same Apple ID, or should I create one for her. All our apple products are on mine at this time.
The answer to this kind of depends on what you both want to do. Apple IDs can be used for multiple Apple services. For example you could both have your own iCloud Apple IDs (which I would suggest), but have only one iTunes Store Apple ID.
So think about how you will each use the iPhones then make your decision. Keep in mind that if you both use the same iCloud Apple ID you will receive each other's texts and emails and all the email, contacts and calendars will be the same. -
My 3gs wont restore after ios 5 update. I have tried firmware restore and restore from backup, neither works. All I get is "iphone restore failed because backup session failed" Any ideas on how to make a successful restore with this ios 5 update?
I was having the same problem, I backed up my phone and then updated to iOS 5 and then it kept telling me it could not restore from my backup as it had failed. After reading a bunch of forums and posts and trying everything, I did manage to get it to work. I had tried the Time zone, creating a new computer user account, disabling anti-virus, etc.
It took a combination of things, one of which was disabling the anti-virus completely and copying the contents of the backup folder to my desktop and then deleting everything in the backup folder. Then I rebooted the PC, entirely disabled the anti-virus, copied the one backup I wanted to restore from the desktop to the backup folder and then trying to restore. Low and behold the phone said restoring from backup and I am back in business, so when in doubt, trying combining some of the fixes together. -
I have one apple ID for both my Iphone 4S and Ipad. My Ipad was stolen from me and when I checked the iCloud, it can only locate the Iphone 4S. How can I locate the Ipad device?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely. -
HT1414 how can i activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading to ios6? it could not activate....
how can i activate my iphone 3gs after upgrading to ios6? it could not activate....
If your phone was previously hacked to unlock it, when you updated the hack was removed and it's re-locked to the original carrier. The phone will now activate and operate only with that original carrier.

My aperture library will not open after restoring my whole computer after a kernal panic. I can not get the Aperture troubleshooting menu to open...any help?
Leonie,
Fisrt let me thank you for your reply and assistance! So here is the problem with so more detail...I was not sure I was going to get any replies ; )
I restored from a time machine back up.
History of Failure:
I was trying to launch Aperture when the kernal panic occured. My computer had been closed, and asleep and the battery was dead. I plugged in charger and it was restoring/waking up after being asleep/shutting down from dead battery. I launched Aperture from the dock and as soon as it opened the kernal panic occured. After that the computer would not turn on. It would try to boot then it would shut off. I even tried to safe boot to no avail. I went to the Apple store and they told me that the only thing I could do was restore whole computer from back up. So thats what I did.
Since then my previous aperture library: "2011" will not open. I have created a new aperture library "2012", and it runs fine. I have added new photos for about the past month...no problems.
When I launch aperture with 2012 library then try to switch libraries, I get the following prompt: "The selected library is from an older version of Aperture and requires a relaunch to switch." I choose "Relaunch" and I get the following warning prompt: "There was an error opening the database for the library “~/Pictures/Aperture Library 20111.aplibrary”." The only option is "Quit"
Both libraries are version 3.2.3
Computer stats: 3.06 GHz Core 2 Duo, 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 RAM, OS X 10.6.8
I have tried to launch aperture troubleshooting by holding option+command from both the aperture icon and from the library file, neither will launch the troubleshooting feature.
I am ok with computers, but not a whiz (mechanical engineer)...to me it seems as though there is a corrupt path or file or some sort of "check" that is failing, becuase the failure occurs so fast after trying to launch aperture. Maybe that doesn't make any sense but just a thought.
I hope that you may be able to provide some insight. Thank you again for you time and I hope that you have a nice day!

I had to upgrade to Mavericks to send off the iCanendars I made in iPhoto. Then I had to upgrade my IPhoto from 7 to 9.5. Now when I go to open iPhoto I get the message "To prepare the library, use the iPhoto Library Upgrader available from Apple." Well, I installed the Upgrader, but I still get the message and can't open iPhoto. I have tried restarting the computer, but that didn't help. How do I get the computer to recognize the Upgrader?
You may get more replies in the iPhoto forum.
