Data charges have exploded since I upgraded to 5. Whats wrong?

My data usage has tripled since I upgraded to 5. Whats wrong???

You could try to battery saver apps. But I have the same issue. Very annoying and Apple needs to get on this. The update was supposed to fix the battery life issue but it was the one that made mine worse. I feel your pain. All you can do is decrease the screen brightness and kill running apps. Double tap the home button while unlocked and the list at the bottom hold one icon down and when they shake you will see a minus button hit that to make them go away. This will kill programs that are running and eating your battery. I do this often.
Cheers.

HT1386 WiFi and Bluetooth signals have weakened since last upgrade

WiFi and Bluetooth signals have weakened since last upgrade. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

WiFi and Bluetooth signals have weakened since last upgrade. This is no fault of my router and or head set. I have 3 Bluetooth head sets, all disconnect when I put my phone in my pocket. I'm sitting at my desk and there is static from my Bluetooth connection... 12" away. It works fine when I hold my phone up to me ear next to my Bluetooth receiver... That's crazy!!! All WiFi connections have the same affect... Low signal... I'm sitting at my desk right next to my router 24" away and have a low signal. Normally I can sit in my backyard 40' away and still get online. My laptop, no problem... My wife's phone, No problem... My recently upgraded iPhone, BIG PROBLEM!!! Apple is blowing smoke if they think they haven't screwed up.....

Data charge not-pro-rated when upgrading

Thank you Verizon for finding another way to screw loyal customers.
I recently upgraded to a smart phone in mid-month. When my bill arrived I was charged the full month's data charge for the month in which I upgraded. It's $30. Pro-rated it would have been more like $10. Frankly, you could have given me that one as a thank you for years of being a loyal customer. I could have switched to Boost or Cricket for a lot less. Instead you charge me for the whole month. Sure, we're talking $10, $20... won't break me, but add it up and it's millions of overcharges for Verizon.
Any lawyers out there who would like to launch another class action suit against greedy telecoms? ********. I suppose I could call and waste $20 worth of your customer service time, but I have better things to do.

I am recently pretty unhappy with Verizon, they disbanded their customer loyalty group and when I got a new plan I lost 4 mos of a credit I was to receive for "being a loyal customer" and not cancelling service, instead I upgraded and continued another 2 years...but got my son a new phone requiring a new plan and I am sorry you just lost that credit and we won't give it to you. Nice customer service, what happened to fixing things for your customers, and loyalty yes says alot that they disbanded that group. Also they are having issues with data looking high and I see NOTHING about it posted anywhere, but took several hours and days to talk to several people to find it's a known issue.

Indeed, application says - Enjoy your jailbroken phone ! What would that mean ? Any chanses to get that phone On ? (or does it mean the phone gone old n i should get a new version of iphone ?)

That means your phone is jailbroken and you can not get help here.

First, turn off your CAPS lock. Typing in all CAPS is considered screaming/yelling and many will simply ignore your posting.
Are you currently having issues? Is it when trying to purchase only on the device? Are you able to complete purchases via iTunes on your computer?

iOS 8.1, mail fumction, date at bottom of email accounts the date hasn't changed since 9/26/14. How can I fixed this?

Thanks for the reply Brenden. However the problem is:
     At the very bottom of the "Mailboxes" screen (where I've got 6 email addresses that do work) there is on the far right (bottom right corner) an icon to compose a new message.
     In the center of that space is a generated message that says: 1) "downloading x of y" and 2) when finished downloading it says "Updated on 9/26/14." today is 11/6/14!
     My problem is that that date hasn't changed since I upgraded to iOS 8.1. The emails are current, but that date isn't!
Can you help?

WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF IPHONE VS DROID NOW THAT DATA PACKAGES HAVE BEEN RESTRICTED?

please help me decide to get the sprint HTC EVO OR IPHONE4???
NOW that data plans have been destroyed by verizon...what is the benefit of iphone???

There are just about as many opinions on this as there are people...
Just a few from my perspective: Superior usability, consistency of the UI across devices, quality and quantity of apps available and the increasing occurance of malware on the Android platform.

Ever since I upgraded iPhoto to 9.5, my camcorder videos aren't all downloading properly and I have several of the videos to say a necessary data reference could not be found. I also can see many of the pixels on the video footage that was downloaded???

What version of iPhoto and system are you using? Also what camera make and model are you using?
See if you can download all of the videos to a folder on the Desktop using Image Capture and import into iPhoto from that folder.

That issue can be caused by the McAfee Site Advisor extension

I have a certified cable that came in with my iPhone5. Since I upgraded to iOS7, I've been getting the "This cable is not certified..." but still have my phone charged. Now, it just don't charge anymore. Any solutions? I made sure it has no debris.

restore your iPhone with back up and then if required as new

HT1476 ever since I upgraded to ios 7, the battery life is very short and I do not use my ipad all that much.l have been on the phone to apple 3 times, turning off all kinds of things I so not use and have powered off more than before but it is still poor

ever since I upgraded to ios 7, my battery life is very short. I do not use the ipad all that much and have to charge it twice as much as before. I have been on the phone to Apple 3 times and turned off a number of things that I am not using and now power it off more regularly but still not happy with battery life. It is less than a year old and as I said, I don' t use it all that much

My best bet would be to restore the phone. Back it up to itunes, and then reset it Factory settings. This way, any corrupt software will be removed, and you can start fresh. Make sure you back it up first. By the sounds of it, you are using the phone for business and probably need the data from it. Hope this helps!

$ 10 Data Charge for Cellphone Upgrade

Verizon is forcing us to pay $ 10 a month per line data charge in order to upgrade to a decent phone - they must be getting so big that they don't care whether people leave for a provider that doesn't force you to do this. We have tried reaching a supervisor to discuss & the people who answer their phone tell us that a supervisor is unavailable. The phones that they offer that don't involve this charge are substandard. Does anyone else have an issue with this?

Seriously? REALLY? Another one of these "I'm upset because Verizon is forcing a $10 or more data pack on us" forums. You should search the forums, there are tons of forums with the same complaint, give it a rest. I am going to give you the same message that I always give to people who keep on whining about this issue, when obviously NO ONE is listening. And Verizon, don't delete this message, I AM NOT "BOMBING THE FORUMS"! Here is the message:
(This message is to people who rant about how they hate data packs)
Ok,
PEOPLE!!!! Give it a rest! I understand that you think the mandated data plans are "unfair" and what not, but ranting like a child with a tantrum isn't helping anything. Maybe you should consider thinking up an idea that would appeal to Verizon, while still being REASONABLE. But Verizon probably doesn't want customers like you, because if you don't like the data plan that probably means you aren't giving them much money anyway.You can send them a letter, and calmly and assertively (and nicely wouldn't hurt either) tell them how you feel, and like I previously said, give them an idea for something new(even though I'm 99% sure they won' t use it, let alone care...). If Verizon just dropped the data packs then there would be a bunch of people complaining about how they got fined for using data (those people would probably be the same people who claimed they weren't using any data...). There would be a crap load of extra problems. I think that if you don't like how Verizon's business works you should tell THEM, not us (or you can just leave Verizon). I'm not going to lie, I actually like the data pack...I use the internet all the time. I don't even have a smartphone, I have a 3G multimedia phone (but I just ordered a Palm Pre Plus, for better internet and some other cool features, so I'm about to join the smartphone crowd)...I actually chose to get a even more expensive $30 unlimited data pack. But thats just because I use it a lot of internet. But if you don't like the data packs, MATURELY state your opinion to Verizon, not us (or leave Verizon). I'm sure I'm not the only one who doesn't want to hear it anymore. And don't send me a reply saying something like "We can state our opinion if we wanna." or "You shouldn't just think that forcing a data plan on customers is ok" or correcting me on something I said, BECAUSE I REALLY DON'T CARE! I'd just appreciate if you stopped complaining to us, and start talking to Verizon (or like I mentioned early, you can leave). Oh, you guys aren't being forced into data plans. No one is coming to your home and saying "You must get a data plan, or you will be in trouble with the law". If you don't want a data pack just get a simple phone (the Razzle is actually a pretty full-featured phone that happens to be a feature phone). If you don't want a data pack, then what is the use a smart phone or a 3G multimedia phone? I would think a simple phone would be just fine for someone who doesn't use data. There might be a couple of extra features on the smartphone or multimedia phone...but I have a feeling SOME people (not all), just want the look of the smartphone, but you don't actually care about the features (since you don't get many features with out data). So, please, express your feeling to someone that can actually do something...or at leasts cares. P.S. If you think I'm wrong, don't message me about it!
(Thanks to those people who are trying to stop the annoying people who rant about how they hate data packs, and also thanks to those who don't (or have stopped) rant about how they hate data packs)
Pretty good ranting yourself there for someone ranting against those who who are (your words) "ranting like a child with a tantrum" about something you happen to disagree with and obviously do not understand. Your recent posts could be characterized using the same words.
You continue to amuse and entertain (please don't stop!) as well as miss the point. I know you said you don't care but just to set the record straight, the issue is about choice and being able to choose the devices and services we were allowed to choose prior to 01/18/10 when the mandatory data surcharge was enacted. We do not like the choices Verizon has chosen to allow us to make. However, we still do have the choice to express our opinion here (unless Verizon takes that choice away as well) and anywhwere else where customer opinions are allowed and encouraged. If that bothers you then you have a choice to read or not read these posts and respond or not respond. That choice is up to you, but as i mentioned before , it is entertaining.
Although, I obviously disagree with your point of view, I respect your right to have one and express it here or anywhere else as you see fit. For me to ask you to stop would be as silly as you asking us to.
