  • My iPhone 6 will not show battery percentage at all and keeps vibrate on even when manually turned off and yes I have reset the phone and reset network settings and restored, update etc etc

    My iPhone 6 just went funny.  It will not show the batter percentage anymore and the alerts are coming through vibrating even when I have switched them off.  Please help! :-(

    To turn battery percentage back on: Settings>General>Usage>Battery Percentage --switch on.

  • My iphone 4 has turned off and will not turn back it wont chrge and when plugged into the computer it is not recognising it

    can someone tell me how i can get my oiphone 4 to turn back on or has any idea what this problem is

    Hi gillybabe82,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Take a look at the article linked below, it provides a lot of great suggestions and will help you solve the iPhone power issue that you described.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.
    I hope this helps.

  • I connect my Iphone 5 to my laptop and it will connect to my computer but will not show up on my itunes why is this? i have tried everything that other people are saying but nothing is helping.

    HI so i connect my phone to my computer and everything works but it wont connect to itunes for some reason but did just a few weeks ago. I did something where i lost all my photoes and it reset my phone to waht it once was so i wonder if that was the cause but i dont know. help would be very much apprecieated this college student is getting super frustrated.

    Since no one here can possibly know what you specifically mean by "tried everything that other people are saying", no one can determine what you did wrong.  Also, you didn't say what computer OS you use.
    Read and follow ALL recomendations in the following aritcle appropriat for your computer:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

  • When I open iTunes my iPhone 4S will not show up as a device.

    When I open iTunes my iPhone 4S will not show up as a device. I have tried the advice provided by Apple. I have gone through the iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant. That gave no solutions. I have tried the other solutions offered by Apple. I think that I have possibly identified the problem. As far as I know the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is not installed on my computer. I have tried to install it but when I do I receive an error message. I repeat the entire error message in the following paragraph. The message appears in a dialogue box with the name: "Update Driver Software - iPhone".
    "Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device. Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it. Apple Mobile Device USB Driver. Access is denied. If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit its website and check the support section for driver software."
    I cannot find a solution to this problem on Apple's website. How can I get this driver installed?

  • HT5429 I have recently returned from a holiday in New Zealand and transited for 6 hours in China. Since returning to the UK my maps app on Iphone 5 will not show my surroundings in hybrid or satellite. How can i get this back?

    I have recently returned from a holiday in New Zealand and transited for 6 hours in China. Since returning to the UK my maps app on Iphone 5 will not show my surroundings in hybrid or satellite. I have also noticed that the data from section that usually displays data from TOM TOM and others now just says others. Has anyone encountered this before or know how to get the Satellite function on maps back?

    Your phone is "stuck" in the Chinese version of maps. This also happened to me once I got back from China recently. I believe I solved the problem by logging out of iCloud and reloging in.
    BTW the App Store app was also stuck in China. It only displayed Chinese characters and I had to log out and relogin.
    Hope this helps.

  • My iphone 4s will not show the lightning bolt on the battery icon while plugged in

    My iphone 4s will not show the lightning bolt icon while plugged into either the wall or the computer. It shows between 1% and 4% charge. I have reset, and done a factory reset, and this has not fixed the issue. My computer will not recognize the device. While off, the iphone shows that it recognizes that it is plugged in, but i cant tell if its charging because the lightning bolt will not show. Please help.

  • ITunes will not show my purchases before October 18, when I had a different username.  How do I get the older purchases (more than 5,000) listed when my password is rejected and it won't issue a new one for that username?

    iTunes will not show my purchases before October 18, when I had a different username.  How do I get the older purchases (more than 5,000) listed when my password is rejected and it won't issue a new one for that username?

    Wow that was really quick, thank you so much.  Im not sure at all which version it was because i said it was around 4 years ago he bought it.  I know it isn't under his username, since he's a PC person (ugh) so i know its probably registered to one of our actual names.  isn't there some way to look it up since we did register it, because I'm not even sure where the disks are from when we bought it (we've moved a lot and also have two storage lockers, i know i would have kept it with other disks) but my cd rom drive is actually broken on my computer as well ( i think it got stepped on and is now squished and won't eject or run disks.)
    So is there anyway they can look up that its registered to one of our names since we did register it when we bought and installed it, or do i really have to find the disk with some sort of proof of purchase (i know there would be no receipt after all this time)
    either way, ill do what you suggested to the best of my abilities and thank you so much for answering my questions, i can't even open the program as its incompatible and find out the info from that) so I'm in a bit of a pickle and your response was so thorough and it didn't seem to be posted long enough to even write a well researched response, thanks, all the best,

    My new iphone 4s will not appear in my itunes, i have followed all of the troubleshooters on apples website, any advice?

    Does it charge?
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Try another cable
    - Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

  • Iphone 5 will not charge, tried 3 different cables and none of them work on my phone but do on other iPhone 5's

    Iphone 5 will not charge, tried 3 different cables and none of them work on my phone but do on other iPhone 5's. All 3 cables are genuine Apple cables.

    Sounds like the dock port on your iPhone has a problem. It is in warranty so you will need to get it serviced.
