Can anyone tell me what happens to an iphone when you actually fill it up to full ?

A friend of mine is blind and therefore never sees the 'nearly full' message on her iphone (iphone 4S, latest iOS, I think 7.1.1) as it fills up.
We see lots of odd behaviours from her phone and I'm trying to work out if its caused by the phone being full ?
For example, I'd expect the iphone to STOP:
- Recieving iMessages
- Apps wouldn't be able to store data (eg Skype, Whatsapp might not work)
But, would it lead to potential corruption? For example I see these happening:
- Some imessages get through from some friends, but not from me. It looks like a block is in play, but I'm able to call my friend.
- Calls coming in are one-way audio (I wouldn't expect a full iphone to cause this)
- Skype isn't updating, it doesn't seem to recieve or send messages/videos.
What other things would happen ?

Thanks Rudegar,
Yes I'd expect that. But I'm concerned with what I keep seeing happen on my friends phone. Apps seem to corrupt and stop running. SMS's apparently make it to the device (according to the operator), but they're not displayed. Replies to me seem to come from her email_imessage address rather than her phone_imessage address and when I reply it doesn't deliver (meaning that neither SMS nor imessage appear to work), but only with me, it works with others.
If as I suspect, the SMS database is corrupted, then I'm also wondering if the backups of the iphone in iCloud and PC are also corrupted (or does the backup process filter out likely corruption).
I would have thought that iOS would protect applications from this somehow, but I can't see how - a full iPhone is a full iPhone right.. no way to stop data corruption.

Can anyone tell me what file gets written to when you add or change GO Connect to Server?

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,

I installed Adobe CC months ago. uninstalled it.. said "with errors" now I cannot reinstall Adobe CC... can anyone tell me what happened so that my money doesn't go to waste?

Uninstalll error. Cannot reinstall. what happened here and how do I fix this?

No one can tell you anything about what happened until you give complete details.
Maybe someone could help you fix your issue.
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
Note that this is boilerplate text.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster).
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.

Can anyone tell me what happened?

I bought Black Tie Insurance for my expensive new Palm Pre. I have all receipts, and my initial charge went through. No subsequent charges were sent, though. No, they weren't denied by my bank, my bank never even got a request for the supposed recurring monthly charge. Many customer reps assisted, bottom line, emails & voicemails were exchanged in my behalf, all of which I have retained. Best Buy CS reps said the PROBLEM WAS SOLVED. The charges went through, not sure what thier error was. Was this a lie? My account shows as SUSPENDED. I'm sure most suspended accounts are due to non-payment. Since this isn't the case in my account, and I phoned & wrote stating that this needed to be fixed, and noting that I would NOT accept any lapse in coverage due to an administrative error, where do I go from here? Do I just have an expensive phone with no insurance? It's too late to sign up for Sprint's coverage, but I'm sure they would have billed me appropriately. Any advice would be appreciated.

If you call 1-888 Best Buy they can hopefully help you, If not, please private message me, and we can look at other options.

Can anyone tell me what the Wizard is doing when I run the Index Wizard?

I am running RH8, Windows 7 and generating WebHelp.
The Wizard seems to be picking up the names of topics and making them keywords. Some of my topic names have no spaces in them and that’s the way they come into the Index. So, I assume I have to name all of my topics so that they come into the index correctly. Is that right?
I also seem to be getting HTML terms in my index. Some of it looks like formatting. What is happening there?
When the index is created by the wizard and I look at the Index pod I see the index keywords on the top of the pod. Some of the topics are in bold and some are not. The ones in bold do not have an entry in the bottom of the pod in the Topics for: area. These do not display when the help is generated. The unbolded items have an entry in the bottom of the pod in the Topics for: area. These items display when the project is generated. So, what’s happening here? Why are some topics bold and others not?
If you can point me to some Index info I’d be grateful. Yes, I wish I could take a class but that’s not likely to happen in this economy.
But this forum has the best people. I’d be dead without it.
Thanks.

Well, we can't as we don't know what you consider as "more than enough". The built is quite heavy (like it can be 800mb) then it needs to be extracted to be installed before everything unneeded gets deleted...

HT201320 When I access my email from the iPhone, hit "inbox", the new messages appear briefly, but then just evaporate. I can't find them anywhere - not in inbox, not in junk, trash, saved - nowhere. Can anyone tell me what is happening?

When I access my email from the iPhone, new messages appear only briefly and then immediately disappear, before I do anything. Only old messages that were already in my inbox are visible. I can't find the new messages anywhere -- they have not moved to Saved, Junk, Trash, anything. IT is like the iPhone just ate them. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

If you have a POP3 account this means that another "client" email program has retrieved the messages and deleted the messages from the server. You need to change the server settings on that device to leave the messages on the server.
If you have an IMAP or MS Exchange account this means that someone read the messages on another device and either deleted them or moved them to another folder. Or there is an automated script that moved them to another folder.

Hello KCC4ME,
You may try booting your Mac in Safe Boot, as it can resolve many issues that may prevent a successful login.

If a Safe Boot allows you to successfully log in, you may have issues with one or more login itmes (while the following article is labelled as a Mavericks article, it is viable for earlier versions of the Mac OS, as well).

We got a new Apple TV for Christmas and it works wonderful. However, my question is this. We are on a satelitte internet system and our bandwidth is limited. Can anyone tell me what effect it will have on using up my 10 megs of bandwidth?

We got a new Apple TV for Christmas and it works wonderful. However, my question is this. We are on a satelitte internet system and our bandwidth is limited. Can anyone tell me what effect it will have on using up my 10 megs of bandwidth? If I run over the 10 mgs, the service either slows way down until it is reset on the first of the next month or I have to purchase additional bandwidth and it can get expensive.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

If you only have a 10MB limit on the Internet connection you might as well not have Internet access and certainly should not attempt to stream anything.
If the limit is 10GB, then you will need to be careful with streaming as most video is 1-3GB for a one hour show.

TS4009 My iCloud storage is full and I need to delete some stuff. Can anyone tell me what is important to keep and what not? I have done all I can but it still says I need to delete before I can back up on iCloud.

My iCloud storage is full and I need to delete some stuff. Can anyone tell me what is important to keep and what not? I'm just not sure what I really should back up each night and what doesn't really matter. I know my photo's should back up, but other than that, I'm not really sure.
I have taken some pics off and videos and appt, but it still says I need to delete before I can back up on iCloud. I'm starting to wonder if its a glitch with my personal phone. Can anyone help me?
Thanks!

Only you can decide what's critical to back up. One option is to import your photos and videos to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083), then either delete them from your phone or exclude the camera roll from your backup in settings.
You might try going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll), then look at the size of your next backup. If it doesn't go down significantly, something else is wrong.
