When I upgraded my iPhone 4s to IOS7, I lost all my app icons. Where did they go? Interestingly they are still listed in notifications and I could play words with friends when I got a message on the home screen that it was my turn (but still no icon)
Hey linfrommi,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are having trouble locating some application after the update to iOS 7. To troubleshoot this issue, let’s reset the home screen layout of your iPhone, which should move all of your applications to the second “page”:
Reset iPhone settings - iPhone

Thanks,

On my IPad Words With Friends has frozen. I have double clicked on the home button and identified the WWF icon. When I press and hold or swipe vertically the icon darkens but does not shake or bring up the minus sign. Any suggestions?
Force close apps
1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
3. The app will fly off the screen

There is a particularly intrusive BMW app advert that pops up when playing Words with Friends that I can't get rid of. There is no exit option (most unethical). Any solutions for getting rid of the advert out ther?

on my I pad 1 when I touch app to play words with friends , the box comes up to put my apple ID in witch it did not do before. when I put it in the game shuts off
Hello RobertRueckert54321
Try logging out of all the services that require your and his Apple ID. Navigate to Settings > iCloud, scroll down and tap Delete Account it will ask to either keep data on your iPad or remove it. It is up to you on how you want to proceed but I would recommend keeping it. Also Sign out of Settings > iTunes & App Store and then sign back in.

My 5s screen is 3/4 faded. I haven't dropped it and it hasn't got wet. It just began to fade as I was playing words with friends. Any solutions?
Just the game or the phone as a whole? My guess is you have a hardware failure but there are a few things you can try if it's software such as resetting your phone or doing a restore. To reset press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons for about 10 seconds or so until the Apple logo reappears. To restore do a backup before proceeding:
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

First, let me say I have the latest version of Firefox and Adobe Flash Player and Java Script. When I click to play Words With Friends (on pc) my computer starts racing and sounds loud and every thing freezes. If I try to click on slider or anything else, it says Mozilla Firefox (not responding), then it takes several minutes and a box pops up that says something about a script, do I want to continue or ?(I can't remember), after I click continue, I can play the game, but, at any given time Firefox will stop responding again!! A box also pops up from AVG saying that Firefox is using too much memory. Just an aside, I can play Scrabble on Facebook without any problems whatsoever. Please help, it is driving me crazy. Thanks
Sounds that you are missing the plugin that is used to play those videos embedded in Firefox.<br />
Your system details list doesn't show any media player plugin, so you will either have to check if the plugin(s) are installed, but disabled or install missing plugins.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Popular+plugins
You may need the new WMP plugin (np-mswmp.dll) because Flash always uses a dedicated player to play the videos and would never offer to save videos directly unless an extension is used.

When playing words with friends keys keep sticking and it takes ages to transport, any suggestions?
When playing words with friends the keys keep sticking and will not move for several seconds, driving me crazy, any suggestions?
1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
2. Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo. -
I have a macbook pro and a ipod and yesterday while I was on my laptop on Facebook playing words with friends with my daughter who was on the iPod playing under her user name it seems that they combined into one profile. what happened? they used to be separate and we could play against each other but now it says its the same user for both even though I signed in on facebook with my log on and she was on her ipod with her profile. can I fix this?
You might need to be asking the folks at Facebook.

SInce downloading iOS i have not been able to play words with friends in landscape mode, emailed zinga and they cannot find a reason why. Before download i always played in landscape mode. People i know are also finding the same problem, even family, it rotates on other apps etc but not this,it will turn upside down but still in portrait mode, i and others have paid for this game for ad free. Help. Please
This would be an app issue, not an issue with Apple. If you can flip it upside down, your accelerometer is working fine and can sense what position you are holding you iPad, however, the app isn't allowing it to rotate. Just give them time, and I'm sure they'll come out with an update for the app that will have it working again.

I play Words with Friends HD Free on my I pad. The game locked up and I deleted from my I Pad. When I tried to download it from purchased or free downloads it won't download. I had done this before but not since updating to IOS 7.02. I need help please.
I don't know if this will work but it's worth a try. Sign out of your iTunes account on your iPad, restart the iPad and sign back into your account.
Go to Settings>Store - tap on your Apple ID and tap on sign out. Restart your iPad and then sign back in via Settings>Store - tap on sign in and enter your email and password. -

I just recently upgraded my iphone 5 software to ios7 and discovered that i can't hide my text messages as i could previously in ios6.2., can anyone help me out with this?
I had this problem last night as well. Only my daughter upgraded to iOS7 and she had an old phone of mine. When she upgraded, the phone asked for my apple ID and then continued as normal. However, after the upgrade, any text message that I recieved, she also recieved. I am pretty sure my wife thought I was hammered when she started texting me and my daughter began answering her not having any clue what she was texting about. Anyway, this only occurred with texts from other family members, not from texts I received from friends who are obviously not on our account (we have Verizon BTW). To resolve this issue, and it isn't a short resolution.... there are two options... One, simply erase everyting on the phone.... I don't like iTunes 11, so we were unable to back up her phone. I made her go through her 600 photos, delete the ones she didn't want and email the ones she wanted to herself, and then we wiped the phone clean and rebooted it... go into Settings, General, Reset, Erase All Content and Settings. The second option, if you have iTunes 11 is to back up the phones one at a time, and then go into Settings, General, Reset, Erase All Content and Settings. Either of these options wipes the phone clean of all information, text contacts pictures etc and then you have to re-enter all of your individual information. When you do that, make sure that no one is on the same iTunes account. Theoretically, after you do this, you plug back into your computer and SYNC your phone from the last back-up. This resolved the problem for us. I don't know if there is an easier solution, be we tried logging in and out of our iTunes Accounts, turning the power on and off, and nothing changed. So, we had to go the more difficult route to avoid mass confusion with family texting.
