After iOS 5 upgrade, my calendar starts on the wrong day of the week
I've upgraded my iPhone to iOS 5. My region is still selected as Australia, but Sunday is showing up as the first day of the week now.
I have not yet upgraded my iPad. It shows Australia as the region format and is correctly displaying Monday as the first day of the week.
So it appears that the iOS 5 update changes some details of the Australia region format. Does anyone know of a way to manually select the first day of the week? Thanks.
I can confirm that the start day of the week is determined by the Region Format setting (insanely). My girlfriend is still on iOS 4.3.5 and has a Region Format of Australia, and has the week starting on Monday. Apple must have changed it to Sunday in iOS 5.
The best workaround country I've found so far is Namibia!
Tap on Settings > General > International. change Region Format to Namibia.
Different regions affect different things. If you choose UK, you get the week starting on Monday, but the clock changes to 24 hr and the phone numbers format the UK way.
The only downside of Namibia so far is that you no longer get ".au" as an option if you're typing a web address and you hold down the ".com" button on the keyboard.
Apple needs to add a "First Day of Week" option in the Calender preferences, like they have in the iCloud Calendar preferences and iCal preferences (which are both ignored on the iPhone and iPad!).
Even Americans are complaining about this. It must be the easiest fix in the world, yet they still haven't done it.

No valid license found after IOS upgrade on C3750x switch
HI,
Two switches below are working fine as a stack with IOS c3750e-universalk9-mz.122-55.SE5.bin & ipbase license.
Switch#1 (Master, WS-C3750X-24P-S)
Switch#2 (Member, WS-C3750X-24P-S)
After IOS Upgrade to c3750e-universalk9-mz.150-2.SE7.bin, The stack was broken. Switch#2 didn’t recognise valid ipbase license with new IOS and came up with lanbase license instead. Therefore stack cannot be composed due to license mismatch between Switch#1 (ipbase) and switch#2(lanbase).
I’m wondering why Switch#2 didn’t recognise ipbase license with new IOS even though IPASE is running well with previous IOS.
Here is excerpt from “show version” with 15.x image on Switch#2.
License Level: lanbase
License Type: Default. No valid license found.
Next reload license Level: lanbase
Here is excerpt from “show version” with 12.x image on Switch Stack.
License Level: ipbase
License Type: Permanent
Next reload license Level: ipbase
Thanks
JeongThanks guys,
I have fixed the issue by configuring 'license boot level ipbase' on the member switch#2. The switch recognised IPBASE license well and joined the stack successfully. -

Thanks for your quick response. I've tried everything you suggested and get only temporary fixes. Sometimes for a day or two, sometimes only until I use Safari for the first time. It's annoying and probably effects battery life between charges.
You would think that it must have some effect on the battery, but oddly enough, the update to iOS 8 actually helped my battery life, in spite of all of these hinky little issues that are taking place. In my experience, the activity icon is not affecting the battery in a negative way.
Another issue with IOS 8.1 that you may have seen is the loss of icon pictures on home pages. Again it seems to be Safari related, since app icons found in the App Store are not affected, only web based icons you personally put on home pages. I get what I call a test screen similar to what you used to get on old tv sets on every one of my personal icons.
I know exactly what you mean. I got that as well. On a few of them, when I opened the websites using the generic test screen icons and then closed them, they changed back to the way that they should look. For the ones that did not change, I recreated the home screen shortcuts and deleted the generic looking ones - the test screen icons.
And don't get me started on iBooks.
For the very limited use that I make of the iBooks app, i haven't noticed any problems, but I rarely use the app. I don't read books on the iPad other than a few user guides and if they are pdf guides, they reside in more reliable and feature rich pdf apps on my iOS device.
I wish that I had the fix for the spinning activity icon, but everything that I try, is temporary at best. IMO, this is the buggiest iOS update that I have seen, and I have been using iOS devices since iOS 3 on my first iPad. I realize that there are plenty of people that are not experiencing issues, but I have seen a number of weird things that I wish I could fix. None of my problems are major, but they are annoying. -
BT email not working. Cannot send emails from btconnect SMTP after iOS upgrade. This is the only difference I am aware of. Apple iPad 3. Can anyone help me please.
All resolved at last
Deleted the SMTP setting
Recreated the SMTP using the same settings

No logic - as usual - just a bug! -
I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes. Before iOS 8, movies played fine. After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive. Anyone else have a similar issue?
I checked with SanDisk's own online support and they indicate that they have notified Apple of the issue.
According to SanDisk, the problem lies with Apple not having the iOS 8 version of the Safari browser having DRM decoding enabled that the Media Drive relies upon to decode and play iTunes DRM titles. Non DRM encoded videos will play in the browser.
DRM audio is not effected as this is handled by the native iOS music app.
As of the date of this post SanDisk have not been given a timeframe by Apple for this issue to be resolved.
I hope that Apple resolves this issue quickly as I have a large collection of DRM video titles on a 128Mb memory card installed in the Media Drive that I am unable to view. -

Hello dhiliptcs,
It sounds like the WhatsApp app on your iPhone does not have a visible keyboard. I recommend following the steps in the article below for an issue like this (you can skip step 3 since it is not related to this issue):

After ios upgrade to 7.0.4 i got power botton and no sim problem need help help
after ios upgrade to 7.0.4 i got power botton and no sim problem anyone having this problem?
Installing an iOS update does not add a physical button.
As for the "No SIM" message, try removing and reinserting the SIM or replacing the SIM. -
When sending messages to one of our iPhones, the wrong name of the sender appears. The phone also does not notify the receiver. This started after we purchased in iPad and attempted sending that phone an iMessage.
Hi buddy, I figured out what is wrong with that. I had the very same issue, while sending an sms via iMessage on Mountain Lion. I called the Apple guy at the Apple care support but without any luck.
At the end--at least in my case, but it could also be yours--I think I have understood what was going on. This happens when you have your Apple ID registered on more than one device. In my case, we have two iPhones--one for me and one for my wife--but with the same App Store account. So, when I sent an sms via iMessage for the Mac, the receiver was shown my wife's iPhone number.
I hope I have been clear enough, you know, explaining this in a foreing language is always painful...
Ciao,
Antonio
P.S.: this could be true for similar issues (iMessage wrong sender) that I've read in the Mountain Lion, iPad and iPod forums. -

Please don't overwhelm us with so many details!
Just off the top of my head ... as a general approach ... something like
nohup proca
nohup procb
nohup procc
while (some condition checking that all three procs are still running ... maybe a ps -ef |grep )
do
sleep 2
done
procd
But, we'd really need to know what it is you are really trying to accomplish, instead of your pre-conceived solution. -

How do I change the first day of the week in calendar?
I recently updated to ios 5.
unfortunately, this made sunday day one of the week in calendar, not Monday which is my preference (and the convention in Australia).
I was able to change it to Monday by changing international settings to UK, but this changed other settings such as uk version of google as default search engine, which I would prefer to avoid.
Is there a way to make Monday the first day of the week in calendar AND keep my other international settings as Australia?
Many thanks for suggestions.
Chris.I don't think you can. Your best bet is to send Apple feedback and ask for that functionality.

On iPad 3, all of my calendar items lasting more than one day do not appear correctly when looking at the monthly view of the calendar; only the first day of the appointment appears. For example, if I am taking a vacation for 4 days, only the first day of the vacation is marked on the calendar, instead of being listed on all 4 days. When I look at the weekly view, however, it is correct and is listed on all 4 days. The problem here of course is that at a glance, there is no way to look at my monthly schedule. On my iPhone, everything is correct, regardless of month or week view, so clearly this is an iPad problem I guess? Please advise on how this can be corrected. Thank you!
Unfortunately you can't do what you want. Many people have complained to Apple about this. I suggest you provide Apple feedback directly at http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html. They will not provide a direct response but hopefully if enough people provide feedback Apple will fix this.

Bug: Repeating Google Calendar Events Show Up On The Wrong Days
I've created a Google Calendar event that repeats "Daily," every two days, from 6:00pm to 6:30pm. It shows up fine in my Google Calendar, but the Pre's Calendar puts them on the wrong days. For example, the repeating event that should be scheduled for today shows up tomorrow (offset by +1 day).
I tried turning off network timezones, but the bug remains.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. If this is a bug, how can I submit it to Palm?
Thanks!
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)
Some new data:
If I create the repeating event on my Pre, rather than via Google, it shows up on the Pre correctly. However, it only shows up for one day via Google (today); the event is not repeated. When I edit the event in Google, it's setup correctly. I tried saving the event from there, but it doesn't cause Google to recognize it should repeat.
Very frustrating.
Even more new data:
Created yet another event via my Pre instead of via Google. This time Google picked up the correct repeat pattern, and my Pre now shows it on the correct days.
Calendar sync needs serious work, based on my experience. I have issues with Facebook events showing up an hour later than they should, too. Dunno if this has been fixed yet.
New Data (01/28/2010)
Not sure why, but the above success reverted back to being off by one day; temporary success only.

This question was solved.
View Solution.Hi, another quick question: you say you turned off network timezones.... did you make sure that the (now manually set) timezone is correct?
Sounds similar to other issues related to the timezone being off, but usually the appointments were off by hours... not day(s). However if your timezone is set to something really odd and the event you're creating is around midnight (again depends on a few things here), then MAYBE this is it.
If it isn't, one of the support guys will have to chat with you privately about possibly collecting logs, getting more granular details, etc.
