My iPhone keeps saying an incompatible device is connected, when nothing is
Just had my iPhone for a short time and it keeps saying I have third party hardware incomparable with iPhone connected, I've already checked for any debris in the sync cable connection but the message keeps popping up at random times. Any ideas?
Mine does this as well... started doing it about a month ago. It'll do it sometimes after I wake the screen up, but then it goes away instantly on its own. There's only been maybe once or twice I had to actually click the option manually to clear it. I recently had to restore my phone because it wouldn't boot back up, and it still does it. I'm not about to restore my phone as new because I want to keep all my txt messages and app settings, so hopefully this is something that can be fixed with a future software update. Anyone know how to fix this?

IPhone keeps saying Unable to Download this item when i'm not trying to download anything.
My iPhone 4S keeps coming up with a message saying "Unable to Download Item" and I don't know what app / music it is talking about so I press done but it keeps coming up like every 10 or so minutes.
Here are some screenshots of it:
It would be really helpful if someone could give me an answer to why it is doing this.Go to Settings > General > Date & Time, make sure it's correct.

I've reset my network settings , my wireless router is working fine, my iPhone keeps saying unable to join network.
Are there other devices that can connect to your Wi-Fi and work just fine?
You can troubleshoot this using http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398 as well. If you need to restore your iPhone at all, use http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414?viewlocale=en_US and set it up as new to see if this still happens. If it does, you might need a replacement -
IPhone keeps saying it is connected to headphones and it is not
My new Iphone keeps saying the headphones are connected so I can not talk on the phone with it up to my ear. And none of the buttons make any sounds when Iam texting. I tried to reboot it, and restored with my old Iphone on Itunes. Is there something I am missing or is it just not working?
you can try a restore
it does sound like a hardware issue so if that doesn't work then just return it (DOA) and get a new one -

I have the iphone 4 and i'm trying to update it but it keeps saying that there is a connection error. I have Windows and Itunes version 10.5.1. Please Help
If you're getting a network connection timeout error when downloading the iPhone's iOS update, then try temporarily turning off your firewall and antivirus software until the download has completed.

My iphone keeps saying in order to buy a song from itunes, I need to previde the answer to security questions but I don't remember the answers and i've tried to change it but in order to do that, I need the answers.
You canot easily change your country settings. The iTunes Store in a country is intended only for use by that country's residents, and only while they are in the country. To use the iTunes Store in a country you need a credit card (or other card type if acceptable in a country) issued in that country, billed to an address in that country, and also be physically present in that country when using the store. You are also restricted to waiting 90 days between country changes.
E.g., "The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance." - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html#SERVICE -

My iphone keeps saying no sim when the sim is in it
my iphone keeps saying no sim when the sim card is in
There appear to be a number of posts about this topic.
I have the same problem with my iPad 2. Worked fine for months, and now suddenly the iPad seems to 'loose' the SIM card and reports in the top-left corner it reads: 'No SIM'.
Some findings from my side, while trying to address this:
- when I switch to flight mode and then turn flight mode off again, the problems goes away, but comes back after a few minutes
- same happens when I do a full power off.
- I got a new SIM card from my provider. Same issue.
- once you 'lost' the SIM card, it never comes back. (only after full power off - see above).
- I contacted Apple Care today and they told me that this was not a known problem to them. Well, now it is :-)
- Apple Care suggested to me to perform a full reset of the iPad. This is standard procedure and this was not a specific recommended action in relation to this problem. But suggest to perform this procedure anyway. In Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. With this you do not loose your data, but you will need to configure your network/password settings, game center password, etc.
For now this appears to have fixed it....
Good luck,

My iPhone keeps saying my Apple ID has been disabled ?
I tried to download an app that will allow me to have different color keyboards and a message popped up saying my Apple ID had been disabled . I went to the apple and talked to someone on how to fix it but it hadn't been working . Then I told my girlfriend who owns an IPhone 5 about the app I wanted . As soon as she entered her password to download it she also saw the same thing . Her Apple ID has been disabled . Can anyone help please . We have tried multiple time to reset our password for I cloud and apple And nothing is working !
Hi Nico , Contact your bank they may have disabled your credit/ debit card because of an unusual amount of small purchaches of APPS , ALBUMS etc....... Has your name been changed if so create a new Apple ID and RELAX. BANKS TREAT THIS AS FRAUD they may need you to confirm you purchased them APPS.

Why when I try to facetime my Ipod from my Iphone it says that it is busy but when I facetime Iphone to my Ipod it goes through?
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.
