  • Even though the custom greeting is checked , when the phone is called it uses default. Is there a fix?

    When my iphone is called and I don't answer the default greeting is used even though I've recorded and checked custom greeting. Any ideas?

    It is not that you cannot, there could be an issue with the carrier and a problem with your voicemail settings. If the carrier supports it, it should work, just have them check it.

    Help, my iphone 5 is locked and will not function! I've turned it off and on and it has the same fault. What ever you press on the screen highlights with a box round it. When you press the round button with the square in the centre the voice on the phone tells you the time. Then the voice says screen lock. If I try and unlock the phone the voice says phone unlock but you can't put the code in. If you hight the box it will say the number but not put the code in?! What's the crack?

    Quickly Triple tap the home button to de-activate VoiceOver.

  • How do I get the 4s to stop beeping texts in my ear when I am on the phone, while still notifying me of texts when I am off the phone

    I have alert/notification sounds set up to beep when I receive a text message. 
    Sometimes I will be talking on the phone...with the phone to my ear, and I will get a text message(s) from someone at the same time, and even though I have the phone to my ear, it still beeps out loud.  As far as I can tell, it is at the same volume as when I don't have it next to my ear.
    It hurts my ear, and also the person I am talking to can hear the beeping.  I can't hear what the person on the phone is saying to me while it is beeping. 
    I also have the sound set up to beep a second time if I don't read the text.  When I have the phone to my ear and I am trying to talk, it beeps in my ear for the first alert...and then it beeps in my ear for the second reminder alert that reminds me that I still haven't read the text.  Again, I can't hear the person I am talking to while all the beeping is happening.
    Is there a way to set the phone so that it will still beep when I get a text message (when the phone is not to my ear), but it will only vibrate or play a very low sound or something if I have the phone to my ear?  Kind of like caller ID on a landline will play a "no sound/pause" when a call is coming in while you are on the phone.
    Thanks!

    Hi kvpoteet
    As the iPhone remembers the original appleID, prior to you changing it, to change the appleID that your iPhone remembers go to settings>itunes and app store>appleID>sign out, then sign back in with the correct, updated details

    Hi, my iPhone 5s was disabled because i forgot my passcode. I was relying to 3 finger prints that I was saving before. I didn't know that passcode is required when the phone restarted. So I follow every single steps to recover my iPhone using i tunes.
    Suddenly an iTunes pop up a message "that I must respond to iTunes on my phone, so that the computer could have access to the phone".
    HOW COULD I RESPOND ON MY PHONE WHEN I WAS DISABLED ALREADY?
    IS THERE ANY BUTTON TO BE PRESS AS CODE COMBINATION THAT STANDS AS MY RESPOND TO ITUNES?
    <Edited by Host>

    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:                                                             
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:           
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
    Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.

  • I just updated my iphone 4 to ios6 and now I can't keep the wifi connection to stay on. I have to keep entering my wifi password when the phone goes to sleep. How do I keep the wifi connection when I wake up the phone?

    I just updated my iphone 4 to ios6 and I can't keep the wifi connection when the phone goes to sleep. I need to keep entering my wifi password when I wake up the phone. How do I keep the wifi on each time I walk into my house without reentering my password?

    What? Do you work for Apple?
    I have been on the phone for Apple since 5:30 Eastern Time today. We are still on the phone with them. It is 10:14 PM. We are going to get a new phone because the ios6 has major problems! The wifi connectivity is a serious problem. Apple is aware of it. More people need to do something about it. I am willing to start a class action suit against them. I have means to an attorney pro bono. If you are having problems using your iphone 4 or 4s with wifi and ios6...I suggest you spend time calling a senior advisor and get a new phone sent to you. They know they messed up but they can't fix it.

  • HT1766 I  have an I phone 4S and I usually back it up threw I Cloud but since my phone is pretty old and has been shutting off on me I decided to back it up in I tunes. I connected the phone and clicked Back Up Now. When it was done I picked up the phone

    I  have an I phone 4S and I usually back it up threw I Cloud but since my phone is pretty old and has been shutting off on me I decided to back it up in I tunes. I connected the phone and clicked Back Up Now. When it was done I picked up the phone and tried to open an app and discovered that all of my apps have been restored as if I had just down loaded them from the app store. So I lost all progress on them. Is there anything I can do to change it back? And I don't understand what I did wrong.

    This means the iPhone has not been connected or synced with your computer since the passcode lock was enabled on the iPhone and too late now.

    I've tried to respond to your post, but I cannot understand what you are asking. Also not a good idea to post your personal information on a public forum. I've asked the moderator to edit the post.
    Now, please explain what safety mode means, and we will try to help.

  • TS1398 When the phone is locked Wi-fi signal disappears?! (iPhone 5 iOS 6.0.1)

    When the phone is locked Wi-fi signal disappears?! (iPhone 5 iOS 6.0.1)
    What can I do to solve this problem?
    Thank, you!

    It sounds like to me that Apple has worked out a way that the data service providers can increase your usage of the cellular network to increase your bill which undoubtably has resulted in kickbacks. It is pretty crafty and I'm sure most people won't even notice. What really blows my mind is that they have people saying that it is to save battery life. I can't imagine that the ammount of suppossedly saved battery life is even messurable. Reeks of a scam to me.

  • What can I delete from the phone memory?

    I have virtually nothing installed on c: (the phone) except for the nokia diagnostic thing.
    But I have less then 800k free memory left.
    When I didi the last system update I had 25mb free and since then I have applied a Ovi Maps, Contact and Music update all done through the phones SW update thing.
    I have a couple of file explore apps installed so I can go anywhere on the phone memory and I was just wondering if there is anything I can safely delete.
    I have a 5230 and I have done the usual of getting rid of the data inside the browser.

    The only thing I have not done is delete some of the preinstalled apps and reinstall them using Ovi store to get them onto my memory card.
    Looking at the list of apps this might get me a couple of MB back but what then?
    The next SW update will just use it up again.
    What I am looking for is the directory where the phone puts stuff so it can be reinstalled without downloading it again, that sort of thing, I can delete stuff and if I do need to reinstall well OK I need to redownload first but not a problem.
