Did anyone have their iPhone 4S lose signal yesterday?

Around 3pm, iPhone 4S suddenly started searching for signal. Tried all options but signal never returned. Took to AT&T who tried to see if SIM issue, it wasn't. Sent me to Apple, where they tried to restore but couldn't fix. Now phone is wiped and can't connect to anything. Went back to AT&T to replace phone when two guys that worked there said yesterday they had a flood of people with exact same issue. Anyone?? I don't want to be charged for something that isn't my issue.

I'm with AT&T but didn't notice the issue.
Where are you located?

Anyone have their iPhone 6 screen replaced yet?

has anyone had to have their Iphone 6 screen replaced yet at an Apple Store? Was it pain free? How fast was it?

I hope yours doesn't break anytime soon. Because I have found out that no one can repair them yet locally at least. unless you send them to Apple.
After leaving dinner 2 nights ago My iPhone 6 dropped out of my pocket as I was getting into my car. It was less than 2 feet and I had a case on my phone and still my screen shattered. I have to say I was really shocked that it even broke. My iPhone 5 was dropped dozens of times on all kinds of hard surfaces and never broke.
I figured that I would get it take care of if I called Verizon the next day, but they told me they couldn't do anything. Then I remembered the local Apple store helped me last year when my suspend button wasn't working on my 5 and those Apple guys made myself, a cautious and doubtful customer walk out very happy with my first experience with Apple. I really didn't expect to have had a resolution when I went, but I did and they exceeded my expectations and I told my friends how great the Apple store and support was.
So I called the store and was put on hold, after waiting a a couple of minutes to talk to someone, I figured I would just create an appointment and take an hour lunch, so I could get there, and see if the local Apple store could fix my iPhone 6. I figured I didn't need to call. Why wouldn't they be able to help me?
So I made it to the local Apple and met with one of the Employees and showed him my iPhone 6 which had tape and a screen protector on it to keep the glass from falling apart. The employee told me that they could replace the screen for $109, that was great news, only the store didn't have the equipment to fix it yet and probably wouldn't for a couple weeks, but If I wanted they would swap mine for a new one for $299. Unfortunately I didn't have the money to shell out for that, I just got the my iPhone 6 the other week. The guy said well if you can live with it just check back in a week or 2 and hopefully they will have the equipment. Needless to say I left there a little disappointed.
I really needed to get my phone fixed. When I got back to the office I called around and found that nobody could repair them yet. The guy at Batteries Plus even said that he hoped that they would be able to repair them soon, because he already had people calling and stopping by wanting to get the iPhone 6 screens repaired.
I figured I wasn't going to give up. I thought that maybe if I get in touch with the someone directly through Apple.com, there might be another solution. I got in touch with them through the chat support and I could send it in for repair. I told them that I only have one phone and I can't send it in and and be with out a phone for 5-7 day while my screen is fixed. I felt like this script went back and forth a little bit and then I was told once again that I could send it in and have it fixed and that I could just use another phone. I had to once again tell her I didn't have another phone and that I just traded my iPhone 5 in to get the iPhone 6 and had I know that I was going to have these kind of problem I would have just kept my iPhone 5. I thanked her for her help and told her that I was getting frustrated.
I was told the she was going to transfer me to her supervisor. I was told by Ali, "The Supervisor" that he was reviewing the chat and he would be right with me. I thought great he will see what has already transpired and hopefully I can get my phone fixed without having to send it in. Nope same script as the girl before. I was also told to try another Apple store an hour away from me and maybe they could replace my screen. I am sorry, but maybe they could replace it? These are Apple stores! How is it that Apple does not know whether one of its store can fix my screen or not. So I am a little more frustrated. I told them I work 11-12 hour a day 6 days a week. At some point I was told something like I could pay $299 then I would get reimbursed after it was fixed and only end up paying $109. Really It was some crap like that. I guess he missed were I said I didn't have $299 otherwise I would have replaced it at the store.
Really though by this time I was done, the frustration was not worth it. I figured my phone is taped up no more shards of glass to fall off or stick to my finders. I will wait until whenever they finally get the equipment that they need at my local Apple store to repair my screen. You guys probably should have had that equipment ready at stores when the iPhone 6 was released.
Good Luck!

Anyone have their iPhone 5 pre-order shipping confirmation and working tracking link yet?

For anyone pre-ordering an iPhone 5, please post when you have a UPS/Fedex shipping tracking link that actually works and indicates that your iPhone 5 is in transit and whether or not it is scheduled to be delivered on Friday the 21st to coincide with when the iPhone 5 will be available in stores. And did you pre-order through the Apple store or through one of the carriers, e.g. Verizon or AT&T? And did you pre-order early on Friday the 14th or are you hours or days back in the pre-order queue?

Wahoo! Just finished up my pre-order on Verizon's site. (Apple site still displaying "We'll be back" page as of 3:18 AM EST). Definitely says 9/21 DELIVERY, not SHIPPING ...

Did anyone get their iphone 5s delivered yet?

When did you order yours, what carrier, and when? I ordered an iphone 5s gold 32gb on sept 20 but i havent gotten mine yet. It still says item processing!!! Waiting is exhausting!

I'm in the Far West burbs and they were here around 10- skipped me because of an address apartment # issue, but are coming back at 4.
Are you in Lake or McHenry county? Are the roads still bad up there? Maybe they're just having issues getting around?

Is the battery drained after it shuts itself off?
Did you already try to set it up as new device?

When my phone was off it wouldn't connect to iTunes, i got it working now though. I just had to hold my lock button and my home button down long enough. Thanks anyways though!

Did anyone have success applying the invisible shield to their ipad?

Did anyone have success applying the Invisible Shield to their Ipad?

Yes. Make sure any iPad Cover that you have for it is removed first. Then, start at the bottom where the On/Off button is. Peel off only a small section of the bottom of the invisible layer and attached the small exposed sticky side to the bottom of the iPad.
Line it up as best as you can. Placing the edge of the iPad against a flat surface like a wall or backsplash on a kitchen counter can help you to keep the invisible sheet "square" with the iPad surface.
Was that a confusing answer?

When in sleep mode iPhone 4 loses signal but when it's back on it searches and finds signal only recently doing this and because it's searching for signal battery not lasting very long please help

When in sleep mode iPhone 4 loses signal but as soon as its on again it searches and finds signal easily but because of this not getting calls or text msges and because it's searching for signal all the time battery not lasting

Here are some observations and a suggestion.
1) I mentioned before, that the number of views of this discussion forum is fast approaching 100,000. I suppose relative to all iPhones sold that is not a great percentage, but 100,000 still sounds pretty impressive to me. Consider also that many people probably have this same Sim problem and are not viewing this discussion forum because thay do not know it exists. How many people are REALLY experiencing this problem? Who knows. But I suspect it is more that 100,000.
2) To the best of my knowledge, Apple does not consult these forums as a guide to awareness of product performance. It may be company policy, but most of the time when I speak to an Apple employee they seem remarkably unaware of the "Top Stories" in the Apple Discussion Forum. This, despite the fact that my personal experience with customer service at Apple is excellent. So, as much as we of this discussion forum are confident SOMEONE important at Apple is reading all our posts and taking them to heart...I am not so sure.
3) I have been told over and over that the best way to gain Apple's attention regarding a problem is to post a comment on their Feedback Site. One comment about a problem is pretty worthless. 100,000 comments on the same issue, I'm guessing, will really get their attention.
4) Some folks have mentioned a recall to address this problem. Although such a thing is always a possibility, I don't see it happening. Why? When the brakes on a Toyota don't work, or that Toyata starts to accelerate without driver intention...well, that involves human life and the stakes are quite high. For many reasons you would see the automotive industry eventually be forced into a recall program under such a situation. But, a phone APPEARS to not nearly be such a life and death device. Or is it? My daughter's iPhone 4S developed a "SIM FAILURE" on the same day her car broke down in the middle of the very rural area we live at around 10:00 pm. She is 17 years old and was coming home from high school play practice. You can imagine the anxiety I and her mother felt when she did not arrive home on time. She eventually walked about a quarter mile to a house of a stranger and had to ask to use their phone to call us. Now, I am not saying that strangers where I live are not to be trusted. But, in addition to being worried out of my mind, I was not happy that an inoperative iPhone 4S caused my daughter to be put in this situation. My biggest concern now is...when will my daughter's iPhone become inoperative again due to SIM FAILURE?
5) The more folks in this discussion forum who post a comment about this issue in Apple's feedback site the more pressing this issue is going to be perceived by Apple. So, I like others, encourage all of you to do so. If this seems like a lot of effort, I offer you these few sentences below that you could just copy and paste into the feedback site.
The link to feedback site is: http://www.apple.com/feedback/
Feel free to use copy/amend/whatever the following as you wish:
Dear Apple,
I wish to register a strong concern about my iPhone's unpredictable inoperability due to failures somehow associated with it's SIM technology. For me, I do not consider this just a significant lack of convenience, but a significant safety issue. Should I need my phone in an emergency situation where it is experiencing a SIM FAILURE, I believe the iPhone will have put me at risk. I would ask you to please give fixing this problem your greatest priority and effort.
Sincerely, XXXX

Has anyone had their iphone 4 die on them? Mine is just 2 yrs old and won't switch on, tried all the remedies, reboot, tried to connect and reboot via itunes, new battery--nothing works

Hias anyone had their iphone 4 completely die on them? Mine won't switch on, I have tried using the power key with the home key, tried connecting it via usb cable to itunes, tried new battery- nothing has worked. The phone is just 2 yrs old this month, and I haven't dropped it or anything. I have never had a phone break on me before in almost 20 yrs of having mobile phones- I've had to resort to using a 7 yr old Nokia, which I used to love but it's not the same as my iphone!!

If you have attempted the reset, which is holding the home button and sleep/wake button, was it still connected to the computer? Have you tried to do that when not connected. You stated it never came on, how long did you hold the buttons together? If you cannot get it to connect to iTunes then you would not be able to restore the device. You can see if you can put the device into Recovery Mode by following the instructions in this support document. If that does not work, then you are correct, make an appointment at the Apple Store. If you can't update or restore your iOS device

Did anyone order the iPhone on a different line and activate it on your line?

I'm going to pick my iPhone up tonight and want to know if anyone activated their iPhone which they ordered from a different line?
How did you do it and can I do it without having to activate it through the line it was ordered from?

People have bought an iPhone under one line and activated it for another line.
Here's how to do it, everyone says Verizon's walkthrough is a good one:

My iPhone 5 loses signal on the Vodacom LTE network. Is it the network or my phone playing up ?

My iPhone 5 loses signal on the Vodacom LTE network. Is it the network or my phone playing up ?

When I put in Airplane mode and back it seems to fix the problem. But this is very annoying and not what I would expect from the NEW iphone 5. I have read a lot about this issue but NO SOLUTION

When in sleep mode iPhone 4 loses signal but when it's back on it searches and finds signal. iOS was 5.0.1, update to 5.1 but no changes.
Battery problem, anntena or motherboard? pleas help.

it could be a motherboard problem. Last month I spilled liquid on to my iphone and since I didn't have warranty for it I had to take it to a "phone doctor". He fixed it but mentioned that motherboard is working fine but he can not say for sure for how long it will last, and that I may experience some wierd problems. I'm having this exact problem the day I got my iphone back.
Well no longer but the solution still seems wierd. I turned on the "location services" because I saw in the "system services" screen that "cell network search" was turned on. I figured if I don't screw with location services, it would be okay. So, after three hours, I terminated the sleep in 10-20-30 minutes and 1 hour intervals, it seems I no longer have the problem but I'm going to sleep over it to be sure. Also make sure to turn on the "auto" option on the "carrier" menu.
I will post the outcome if I don't forget about this page.

Did anyone get their Melissa Etheridge pre-order yet?

This is very frustrating. I keep checking for purchases and nothing. No email either. It's 11:30 am PST and I could have gotten it at Best Buy by now. Did anyone get theirs yet? This is the second week in a row that the pre-orders are very late. Used to be I'd get the email the night before and be listening to my pre-ordered albums way ahead of their general release.
So I just got an email from iTunes support asking me to send them my billing address so they can "test" my account.
Message was edited by: Bluesygirl

I've just received a reply from Apple.
"Dear Paul,
I understand that you had preordered the album "Drastic Fantastic" so that you could listen to it today (09-18-07), but have not been able to fulfill the order. I know how frustrating this can be.
This is a known issue, and Apple is currently working to resolve the problem.
As soon as this issue has been resolved, iTunes will automatically send an email to your registered email address. Please reply to this email if you do not receive your preorder notification by the end of today.
I know you're anxious to receive this item and I'm very sorry for the delay and for any inconvenience it may be causing you. I hope you find this information helpful. Thank you for contacting iTunes Store Customer Support and have a wonderful day, Paul!
Sincerely,
Graham

Did anyone have issue connecting iphone to computer

When I try to connect my iphone to the computer, it shuts my computer down. However when I connect my ipod, I don't have any problems. I called the apple solution center and they told me uninstall itunes and re-install it. I did it and still had the same problem. So they said it was my driver however, the ipod shows up so it can't be my driver.

Thanks for your suggestion.
I have uninstalled & reinstalled the webcam drivers (and other Creative software), and upgraded to the latest drivers/software for it, and unfortunately the problem is still occurring.
Does anyone have any further suggestions?
