After upgrading to iOs 8.1, my "other" storage increased significantly. what to do?
On a 5s with 64G, my storage went from under 3Gs to 21Gs after upgrade to iO 8.1. What to do about it?
FIRST, back up the phone to iTunes, then sync it. A sync will frequently reduce the size of Other. If that fails, connect the phone to your computer, click on its name in iTunes, and click Restore iPhone. First time, restore your backup. If Other does not get smaller then you will have to restore again and set it up as New, then manually add back your apps and music. You will lose any app data, however. It may help to understand what Other actually is. See: What is "Other" and What Can I Do About It?

HT1695 how do i activate my iphone 4 after upgrading to ioS 5.1
how do i activate my iphone 4 after upgrading to ioS 5.1
I'm not sure I understand what you're asking, but I'll try to answer! You can either connect to iTunes and set up and activate there, or you can also use the setup assistant to set up your iPhone. As far as carrier activation, you'll have to follow the protocol that your carrier uses. Either switch SIM card, or call the number they use to allow device activation. Is that what you were wanting to know?

After upgrading to IOS 8 several things on my iPhone 5 stop working, like safari, maps, mail, messages. When you go in on these apps they only shut down. How can i fix this?
Update: my phone's connecting to the WiFi again. I don't know what did the trick. I did nothing since reinstalling the software. It hadn't worked then, it is now. I tried connecting to my dad's phone's hotspot( he uses a Moto G), and it worked. I then tried connecting to the WiFi at a friend's house, and when I came back home, my phone was able to connect to my WiFi! Is it of any significance that my friend's router doesn't require a password? My issue has been resolved( for now; I hope I'm not counting my chickens before they've hatched). For anyone facing a similar issue, I suggest you try everything I did:
1. Turn your router off for a minimum of 30 seconds, turn it back on and try connecting.
2. Click on the WiFi network you are connected to, scroll to the bottom, tap "Renew Lease".
3. Do a soft and hard reset.
4. Reset network settings.
5. Back your data up, erase all content from settings menu, restore from backup.
6. Reinstall your software( put it in recovery mode).
I am not sure which of the above worked for me. Make sure you try everything. If none of the above works, take it to a genius bar or an authorised service provider. Good luck! :) -
After upgrade to iOS 5 there is a large chunk of data (>9Gb) on the phone labeled as "Other" in iTunes. I suspect this is the music library from before the upgrade. How do I delete this data?
Same happened here on my iphone 4. I heard it's something about bad meta data in the music files but I've no idea. It seems to be fixed by deleting the music from the iphone and then syncing it back on. No need to reset so far luckily!

Almost 28 gig of 'other' added to my ipod after upgrading to ios 5
Immediately after upgrading to ios 5, my 32 gig iPod touch was clogged with 27.9g of 'other' data that wasn't there before the update, leaving no room for anything else. Any idea what this data could be or how to get rid of it? If nothing else I'll try reseting it and installing software again.
Thank you wjosten. It did work!!

IPad app no long works after upgrading to iOS 7.1.1
iPad app no long works after upgrading to iOS 7.1.1
Did you try deleting then reinstalling the app? Sometimes developers will need to update their apps for compatibility. If it still doesn't work after reinstalling, wait a few days to see if an app update becomes available.

Hdmi adapter not working after upgrade to iOS 8
My Hdmi adapter (orig. Apple) is not working anymore after upgrade to iOS 8, is there any solution.
The IOS 8 update has nothing to do with the failure of the device. I have a HDMI adapter and it has worked fine through IOS 6, IOS 7 and IOS 8.
You may want to restart your device by holding the home and power button until the Apple logo appears. If the adapter still fails to work you need to determine if the adapter has failed or the port on your device has failed. Best solution is to go to the Apple store with the device and the adapter. If your adapter has failed it may be under warranty if you still have the sales receipt. If the port on your device is bad then the Apple store will be able to provide you with options. -
IPhone Bluetooth not working after upgrading to iOS 6.1.2
I used to pair my iPhone with my Blue&Me system in my Fiat Car and it was working perfectly hitherto. Recently I have been experiencing problems with Pairing my phone with my car Bluetooth system (Which I sometimes use for receiving calls).. The phone though identifies the car system in the discovery mode but is not able to pair and establish connection. My car Bluetooth system is working just fine with other phones. Request apple / or anyone who can help to help me overcome this issue. My car system is as important to me as iPhone and if this problem persists, i may be forced to change my phone.
In the 4+ years of using iPhone and several other apple products, this is the first time that I am feeling frustrated with my iPhone 4S and Apple. I am surprised that so many people around the world are facing the problem with their blue tooth devices after upgrading the iOS and still there is no hope of having this situation resolved. The cause of breakage of communication between iPhone (my investment, my ownership) and other devices is of apple origin and apple can't walk away by suggesting that the other party should upgrade the Bluetooth Firmware.
In my case, My iPhone 4S stopped paring with My Fiat car blue&me system after updating to iOS 6.1.2. The problem has not been solved in iOS 6.1.3.
If this problem is not solved in next update the ovious solution is to move to android as I can change my phone but I can't change my car that eaisly. -
