6.1.2 on iphone 5, now my wifi disconnects until I restart my phone
I was having no issues until I updated my phone to 6.1.2. Now my phone won't connect to wifi until I restart it. I tried resetting it, but that didn't help. My fiancee's iphone running 6.1.1 is just fine on the same connection. This has become fairly irritating. I have to restart my phone several times each day. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
FIXED!!!!
I have iPhone 4s running 6.1.2 Everything worked great before the lovely update. My wifi did the same thing that everyone else's seems to be doing. It would not recognize my home router.
Evidently, in the update, Apple changed how the "Ask to Join Networks" button operates. Previously, I didn't have to have the button toggled to on, my phone would just automatically lock onto my router. I have fought and fought with this update. I have done several "network settings resets". I have even restored my phone twice. I have tried every crackpot, and not so crackpot, suggestion on these forums and NOTHING has worked. I could go to settings and connect to the router each time I used the phone, but it would only stay connected for a few minutes.
Today, I toggled the "Ask to Join Networks" button to "on", then opened Safari. My phone then asked if I wanted to join the network, I responded with "join". My phone has been on wifi all day! I left home and came back several hours later, and FINALLY... my phone locks on automatically.
Go to settings>, Wi-Fi>, toggle "Ask to Join Networks" button to "on". Then click on your router/network in the list.
I realize that everyone's problems are not the exact problems I had, but maybe this will help some of you having problems.
Good Luck!

How do I not sync notes with my email? I have a business email on my iphone as well as my husbands iphone. Now all of my notes are on his phone, and all of his notes he previously has on his iphone are gone. We have never adjusted any settings or hooked it up to itunes, I only added the shared email account to his phone. Help???
Hi StoneLeadyFarms,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like notes on your devices may have synced when the email account was added, as described here:
iOS: Syncing Notes
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4191
Notes are associated with an IMAP email account or iCloud account. To sync Notes, enable Notes for each account in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars or Settings > iCloud.
You can stop syncing notes by tapping Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars or Settings > iCloud, tapping the email address that you added, and switching Notes to the off position.
Additionally, if your husband has backed up his iPhone to iTunes or iCloud, the steps in this article can help with recovering the lost notes from his device:

Hello i try to use another SIM card with my iphone 4s now it said i need to unlock the phone with my Sim carrier ... here is what it says below
The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information.So.. You need to contact the carrier for the iPhone's original sim card, and request they unlock it. The carrier is the only one that can unlock the sim of the iPhone.

I tried updating my iphone and now it says I have to restore my phone. I've never had this problem with the previous updates, I'm confused?
Same with me. The Upgrade hung up and froze the phone. Do the restore and then back it up when you get into iTunes from a previous save. It takes the better part of an hour our of your day depending how many apps and songs you have to get everything back together. It is a royal pain but I didn't lose anything.
Download a youtube app. It's not in iOS6. -

Hi, beth.lau.gr.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand you have been experiencing issues with your iPhone restarting and showing you a blue screen. I wont be able to give you an exact answer as to why this is happening. However, this is the most relevant troubleshooting article for this issue. This article also provides options to reach out to us via phone for additional assistance.
If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it

When I try to delete message threads on my iPhone 5, the message app won't work until I restart my phone. Once it restarts, the message threads that I tried to delete are still there. Any advice?
I recently spoke to someone from Apple support, and here's what I gathered:
"Older" phones (read: anything iPhone 4s or older?) sometimes have trouble keeping up with the processing demands of the newest software. When deleting threads with a lot of media (photos, videos, etc), it can take a lot of processing to successfully delete. What this support tech suggested was picking some of the bigger threads at night before you go to bed, deleting them, and then leaving the phone alone-- and plugged in-- overnight to give it enough time to delete everything. He suggested not even pressing the lock button; just leave it to process (though I imagine the screen will lock on its own anyway).
Not sure if it works yet since I just spoke to him, but it's the closest thing I've got to a solution! -

I backed up my iphone to my computer and now I have a photo library on my phone with all of the photos from my computer and it has taken up all of my storage on my phone. I can not delete the photos from my phone. How do I fix this?
Thats because you have selected to sync the pictures too in your iTunes library. You won't be able to delete these from iPhone. You will have to uncheck it under iTunes, under sync options. Or remove the pictures folder there, or move all the pictures from that folder to other location, and sync again, the pictures from your iPhone then will be gone.

HT201365 How can I set up find my iPhone so that my wife can find it from her phone
How can I set up find my iPhone so that my wife can find it from her phone
Find my iPhone is tied to the iCloud account set up on the device. If you set up your iCloud account on your device, the only way for her to track it on her phone would be to use the free Find My iPhone app and login with your AppleID and password.
