While using my phone it shut off and asked me to activate it. I've had it for almost a year now so this is strange. I've tried calling but as usual, the line is busy and there is an extended wait time. Any other ideas?

This is ridiculous I've had my iPhone 5 for almost a year now, and just today while I'm scrolling through Instagram, my phone decides to restart..I thought okay, maybe it has something to do with iOS 7. But of course it didn't, and when the phone awakened it showed my regular background. In the middle of the screen was a notification that said "Activiation required" and I thought "Wow, that's weird." So, I swiped, unlocked my device and it brought me to a screen asking me to connect to wi-fi, so I did. then, the nest screen showed me a thing that said "This iPhone is currently linked with d******@yahoo.com. Sign in with the Apple ID that was used to set up this iPhone." Now, that e-mail is the same one I used to activate and set my iPhone up with so I'm at a loss here. I tried calling and calling Apple but the phones are backed up as usual.

And it brings me to a screen that keeps saying try again later becuase the activation server is temporarily unavialable? I don't get this.

HT1296 I have had my I phone 4 for almost a year now. I am not sure how to sync my phone to the computer. Do I connect and it automatically updates or is there a step by step menu?

I have had my I phone 4 for almost a year now. I am not sure how to sync my phone to the Computer to save my contents and how to update my phone. Do I just connect my phone to the Computer and it will automatically update and save or is there a step by step to complete?

You should have beeen syncing regularly.

My Phone Just Shuts Off and won't come back on unless hooked to a power source. I've got all the updates and all apps are closed out.

It probably overheated and shut down. Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons until an Apple logo appears. This will take 10 to 15 seconds of holding both buttons.

my phone just shut off and i cant get it back on....what should i do?

Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, usually takes about 10 seconds of holding both buttons. If nothing, Reset while connected to charger, this can take about 20 seconds of holding both button while on charger.

do a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

I dropped my iPod touch 4 generation on my kitchen tile and it shattered, like chunks of the screen are coming off. But everything works and I've had it for a 1 ½ years now. I don't have the extended warranty or anything but can I get it replaced somehow

I dropped my iPod touch 4 generation on my kitchen tile and it shattered, like chunks of the screen are coming off. But everything works and I’ve had it for a 1 ½ years now. I don’t have the extended warranty or anything but can I get it replaced somehow? if anyone knows anything please let me know. thank you!

Depending on the extent of the damage, Apple may replace the iPod for a flat fee; see the Repair Pricing section here:
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq/
There are independent iPod repair services that may be able to repair the iPod for less. Do a web search for "ipod repair". Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPod serviced by an unauthorized shop, all further warranty will be void.
Regards.

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.

There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

I need to purchase a power cord for my intel based 27" iMac. I have had it for almost 2 years, I don't have apple care and I don't want to take it in to the genius bar. I know it's the power cord and I just want to purchase one.

iMacs take generic power cords. If it fits into the back of the iMac and an electrical socket, it'll work.
Good luck.

HT1688 If my phone automatically shuts off and is hot what happens??

Yesterday my phone automatically shut off I triede everything I knew to turn it on by pressing down the home a nd lock button and it didn't work! Any suggestions?

you can put the phone in recovery mode by holding the home button while you are plugging it into a computer with itunes but this will erass every thing on you phone so it should only be done if you have a back up made or really need you phone

How come my phone will no longer hook up to my work wi-fi? it has for almost 2 years and all of a sudden it does not. I am the only one that can not get on.

My phone is no longer hooking up the my Wi-Fi at work. I has for almost a year and now all of a sudden it will not. Everyone can hook up so they did not change anything as far as the Wi-Fi. It hooks up at my Wi-Fi at home fine and other areas, just at work is the problem. What could be causing this? I am using the Motorola Moto Rzr

Could be your work banned your particular MAC address or some such. Maybe they ran an analysis on network usage and type of use and found you to be a large consumer on their network. IDK what type network you are on or business you work at. I know it's been done before to curtail employee efficiency. Otherwise, you may need to speak to the administrator of said network.

My MacBook Air is making a noise every 7 seconds for 2 seconds. It started today, and I have had it for almost a year. It is below the power switch and annoying enough that it is hard to even work with the computer. Ideas?

My MacBook Air is making a clicking noise every 7 seconds for 2 seconds. It started today, and I have had the computer for almost a year. It is below the power switch and annoying enough that it is hard to even work with the computer. It sounds as if a hard drive is trying to work. No applications running. Ideas?

If its a MBA with solid state drive then I would guess its the fan touching something ???. I think it have no other moving parts.

My IPOD keeps repeating the song. I've had it for almost a year and it has been fine. All of a sudden it has started repeating. Help!

I've had my ipod nano for almost a year. It has worked fine. All of a sudden it has started to repeat. I've tried everything. Help!

It's pretty easy to accidentally set the Nano to repeat. Have a look at the manual (download the manual here) on page 21.
