Re: I phone 5
If you can get to the app switcher see what is running and try closing all your apps. I don't know if that will help or not.

Alright, you said that you could get your phone up and running with siri. I would reset the phone then by holding the power button and the home button for 10 seconds.

It was a bug with voiceover, and everything was locked until the apple guy used some software to uninstall all of the settings and set it back to the origonal factory settings.

I had something similar happen and called Apple Care. First, you need to plug your phone to your computer. Second, you need to press the home button along with the power button and hold for 30 seconds to a minute. It will talk to you when it is ready. You will be asked if you want to restore your phone which is what you want If you try to restore your phone without doing this, it will tell you that you need to turn off Find my phone in Settings which you can't get to because your phone is locked. if you have backed up your phone to your computer. That will restore your phone to what it was when you backed it up. Make sure you don't click on Setup my phone as a new phone When it is finished restoring, it will synch and all your apps will come back onto your phone. If you don't have a backup, then you are S O L and you will definitely have to call Apple Care and I have no idea what they will do at that point. Ron Danvers Falling down is part of LIFE...

Yesterday, my phone was sitting on a table, and I locked the phone and turned voiceover off, so it wouldn't make any noise in a meeting. I decided, it would be best to just turn the phone off so I did as usual pressing the power button until Siri said slide or double tap to turn off, and then I double tapped and it shut down. Later, when I turned the phone back on, it did not come up asking me to enter my pass code, but rather it didn't say anything. I pressed the home button and started swiping left and right and it would only say, help listen and the power battery level. I pressed the power button and the home button 5 times, and didn't help any. I later had a sighted person who knows a lot about technology and the I phone look at it, and she played with it for four hours and finally gave up. I can tell Siri to do things like call someone check messages and so forth, but to actually get to apps and things it will not let me do that. This afternoon, I got it to tell me that I needed to insert my pass code to unlock which I did enter, but it said it could not unlock the phone. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

RE: I phone 5
Hi Robert, I can't remember if it gave that option but you have nothing to lose. Connect your phone to your computer and hold the 2 buttons for 30 seconds to a minute. It comes up with more than one choice but I can't remember if restoring from iCloud was one of them but I think there was such a choice. Like I said, you have nothing to lose in trying and seeing what comes up. Good luck! Ron Danvers Falling down is part of LIFE...

RE: I phone 5
Reset it. Hold down the sleep/wake and home butttons for about 10 seconds. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Robert Stigile Sent: Monday, October 01, 2012 9:06 AM To: Iphone List Subject: I phone 5 Hello All, I have an issue with my i phone 5. It will not allow me to answer a call, double tap on anything, basically, it is only allowing me to check the date and time. I can not even turn the phone off. If anyone has any ideas, I would greatly appreciate it.
