Clean up iPhone icons

I have a 3G iPhone with lots of apps.
Trouble is, there are gaps all over the place. Is there an easy way of cleaning up all the icons, so they all move back and fill empty spaces on previous app pages, so all the free space is on the end pages?

There's no one-button 'clean up' option. You have to move them individually. If you know how, stop reading here . If not:
Press and hold an app icon until the icons start shimmering. You can then drag an icon around the screen, or drag it to the next screen by dragging it off the left or right edge. Press the home key when you're done

My latest OS upgrade (to 6.1.3) resulted in loss of all music on the iPhone. It is still on my computer intact, but cannot get it back on the phone. If I click on music under the iPhone icon in iTunes, it shows me only voice memos. Help!

after upgrades, suddenly no music is on or can be synched to the iPhone. It is all there on my computer but cannot get it to synch back. I tried copying over older itl fils t no avail.
If I click on music under the iPhone icon within iTunes, it shows on a dozen or so voice memos. (also shows them under "Voice memos").
Itunes version is 11.0.3 (42)
Any suggestions?

From the requirements point of view, you can happily move to iOS 6. From the user tranquility pov, it's a crapshoot. Remember that MILLIONS of iDevices have been sold, a couple of those just this past Xmas season and hence all with iOS 6 preinstalled. "Many complain in the forums" is a number that ranges in the 10's or 100's: i.e., a minuscule amount of the total devices out there. And. of course, nobody comes here to gush excitedly about how well his iGadget works; everybody here (save those of us regular users who attempt to help, we're not Apple employees) has a gripe, grumble or complaint.
I can tell you from personal experience that my i5 with iOS 6.1.4 works as desired. All my colleagues' iPhones with iOS 6 work as expected. And we have a particularly flaky Wi-Fi environment thanks to our less than stellar netadmins.
But in the end, it is entirely up to you. Will you bite the bullet, or wait some more? Check the new stuff that came with iOS 6 and decide whether or not to risk it.

When i plug my iphone in to my desktop computer, the iphone icon does NOT appear.....how do i get it to appear so i can synch my stuff?

When I plug my iphone 5s into my desktop computer, the iphone icon which you click on to to wnable you to synch your device with itunes does not appear. Its like being signed into itunes without a device connected.
If you look in the top left hand corner, this is where the icon should appear apparently, but as you can see, on my account it just isnt appearing! my usb cable is new from an Apple store and isnt faulty. The desktop computer is also new.

What happens if you go to iTunes > File > Devices, do you get the option to Sync iPhone?
You could try a reinstall of iTunes. OS X Yosemite: Reinstall apps that came with your Mac

Iphone icon dose not appear in ' My Computer' , but appears in Itunes.

Could someone help me out.
I am using the Windows XP platform.
I have an Iphone 8GB (1st Gen), initially the 'Iphone' icon would appear in 'My Computer', but recently it has stopped appearing! I have tried changing USB slots, reinstalled the driver, but it still dosent work.
Itunes has no problems detecting the Iphone. The problem now lies with the 'My Computer.

Reason I ask if you have pictures in your camera roll is because if you don't then there is nothing to transfer thus no reason for the iPhone to report out to Windows that it is a camera. Thus won't show up under My Computer as a camera/scanner and won't pop up the options of what to do.

My iphone icon shows in itunes but is missing from my computer desktop. It is detected as a iphone camera device. I have tried everything from unistalling-reinstalling, disabling-enabling, and updating. Still no iphone icon showing in my computer desktop.

IPhone icon disappears in iTunes when attempting to sync.

When I plug my iPhone 3G into my Macbook Pro the iPhone icon pops up in iTunes as it should and it begins to sync. However, after a few seconds the icon disappears although the phone still says "Sync in Progress." I end up having to cancel the sync from the phone because it sits at the "Sync in Progress" screen seemingly forever without actually syncing anything.
I have a Macbook Pro running the latest version of Snow Leopard(10.6.4) and the latest version of iTunes (10.0.1). My iPhone 3G is running iOS 4, version 4.1.

Hi deuceduce,
Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
It appears that you're syncing your iPhone 5s with iTunes on your PC. You're using Wi-Fi, but the error message reports that iTunes can't find your iPhone.
There are several steps that can be used to troubleshoot this situation. I'd recommend the method outlined in this support document:

This article will take you through various troubleshooting steps that can help.
Sincerely,

IPhone icon disappeared from iTunes after successful iOS 8.1 installation

Just after I just successfully downloaded and installed iOS 8.1 onto my iPhone 5 from iTunes, I got the following message: "iTunes could not connect this phone. The session ID is missing". I have no idea what that message meant, but now there's no longer an iPhone icon showing in iTunes, although there was before I upgraded the iOS. I had successfully bought several "songs" from the iTunes Store and synced them just prior to uploading the new iPhone iOS. I guess now I will have to eject the phone improperly. Any idea what "ID" that message was referring to, and what I should do? I want to also upgrade the iOS of my iPad, but don't want the same thing to happen.
My new computer is a 13" MacBook Pro with Retina Display, 2.8 Ghz processor, 8 GB memory, running OS 10.10 (Yosemite). iTunes has been working fine.

IWeb and iPhone icons

I have created a iphone friendly website with iWeb, and want to make an icon so i can use the add bookmark to home screen feature to my iphone. How would i do this with iWeb? Or is it not available? Thank You

Well, I did some more hunting and testing and found that for my makentosh site...
http://www.makentosh.com
You'll get an iPhone icon for me, but for my web.mac address
http://web.mac.com/makentosh
you will NOT see my touch-icon. The difference must be that, for the way I've got my domain name set up iDisk/Web/Sites is defined as the root. For web.mac.com, it uses an index file one folder deeper in. So, for iWeb sites that are NOT using a domain name like mine, you will have to edit the index file at the location described on this page.

And, as an added bit of info, I found a post on vjarmy that states that "if you don't want the glass on your iPhone, just change it from 'apple-touch-icon' to 'apple-touch-icon-precomposed' "

I connected my iPhone to my macbook to charge it. When I come to eject it I can't find the iphone icon in finder or on desktop?

With Macintosh Computers there is no Finder or Desktop icon for iPhone. Just unplug the iPhone. In iTunes application this is different and you can so-called eject it if you want.
