I am unable to turn on location services after the iOS7 update on my iPhone 5
Relatively self explanatory. When I go into Privacy settings I am unable to turn Location Servies on. The option appears, but I cannot slide the switch to 'on'. This has only happened after the ios7 update.
Hi dombew,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
To address this issue, I would suggest restarting and/or resetting the iPhone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If that does not resolve the issue, refer to page 146 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:
iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
Also, check to make sure Location Services has not be restricted:
iOS: Understanding Restrictions (parental controls)
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4213?viewlocale=en_US
You can prevent changes to privacy settings, including:
Location Services
Cheers,
- Judy

How do I turn off location services on the iPhone 6?
How do I turn off location services on the iPhone 6?
Yes I already went to Settings > Privacy > Location Services, is not allowing me to turn it off.
And yes I have disable the restrictions too.When I tapped the screen, there was a symbol on the left that looked like arrows going in a circle and on the right were the arrows crossed. The crossed arrows were orange, when I tapped this orange symbol, it turned to white and the songs STOPPED shuffle.

How do you turn on location services for the Photos app?
I reset my location services and I need to reactivate the location services for those apps I want to use this function. I have turned on location services for all other apps, including CAMERA, but I cannot figure out how to turn it back on for PHOTOS (Camera Roll). This option did appear when I did the new iPhone5 setup, but I cannot get it back. And PHOTOS is not listed in the apps shown under the Location Services setting page. I set my wife's phone up too and the PHOTOS app is showing on her phones Location Services setting page. Help please.
Hi There
I had the same problem and actually I found out that in Location Services you need to Turn On the option for CAMERA, as there is no photos icon.
Cheers

IPhone 5: Can't turn on location services after ios 7 upgrade.
When I upgraded to the current ios, location services got turned off. Now there is a password there, and I'd never had one before. I've been trying unsuccessfully for 3 weeks with every number combination that I can think of to get into my restrictions tab and turn on location services.
Any Suggestions?.Read this
Note: If you lose or forget a restriction passcode, you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it.

HT4972 Why can't I turn on location service after updating to ISO 6.0
Why can't I enable location service after upgrading to ISO 6.0
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Unable to turn on location services 3GS post upgrade
It works on upgraded ipad2, but not iPhone. Greyed out and can't turn on.
Upon clicking Settings>Privacy>Location Services what happens when you select Location Services exactly?

I am unable to turn on locational services
Help - I can't turn locational services on - at one point I brought the phone to the store and they restored factory settings and it turned on - but as soon as I synced to Itunes it didn't work again??
Check your Restrictions.
Settings > General > Restrictions > under PRIVACY > Location Services.
Note: You need to enable Restrictions to make changes. -
TS4000 Why can't I set reminders by location anymore after the newest update?
Since updating my iOS software in May, I've noticed that I no longer have the option to be reminded of my tasks by location. Is this permanent or is there a new way to use that service? What am I missing?
Not sure whether it's related to your location or not, but can confirm I can still use reminders by location using the latest software, do you have reminders listed under your location services.

I am unable to access settings or passcode locks or even self destruct which is looking quite appealing.
IOS7 update leaves my Ipad2 asking for a passcode which I have never used.
AaarrgghhI was hoping that some bigwig who decided to throw this update into the mix might have figured out what happened.
I started at 0000 , 1234, 3333 ,9999 nothing except this Ipad is disabled.
............ a bit like IOS7! -
Since updating to ios7.0.2 on my i-phone5 I have been unable to open the i-tunes store app, basically it just opens for a second or two then shuts itself down, I've tried a soft reset, turning on and off, closing down all running apps but nothing seems to work, anyone else had the same problem and no how to fix it?
Hey there Fistycuff,
It sounds like iTunes launches for a split second, then quits unexpectedly.
I would recommend a few things for this issue. First, close all the running apps on the phone:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that, sign out of your iTunes account in Settings > iTunes and App stores, and restart the phone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:
iOS: How to back up and restore your content

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities

I am unable to mount my NTFS partition after the last update
I usually mounted my NTFS partition with the "gnome-disk" utility. It works no longer, only if I start it with "sudo". But in this case the mount point will be in a directory called "root" and this cause several problems, eg.: old hardcoded paths stop working in scripts. What can I do to make the gnome-disk utility work as an ordinary user.
Thx, maybe I could use the fstab to mount the partition, am I right? But I don't know how to do it properly, because when I tried it in the past native hungarian characters iny the file and directory names always caused problems. If I somehow could capture the command sequence which the gnome-disk utility passes to the kernel / bash, would be helpful.
Maybe you are looking for
