DONT UPGRADE TO IOS 5 IT HAS SERIOUS PROBLEMS

Do not upgrade to IOS5 if you want your peripheral devices to work. I did it thinking it would improve my customer experience and can now no longer use my USB to connect to my car Bose system or any other device. It is clearly about the yupgrade to IOS5 as any 4S phone that I try that has not been upgraded works fine.
Apple TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY for the problems and have suggested I resolve it thought Bose and Ford and every other third party supplier.
BE WARNED YOU CAN NOT ROLL BACK TO THE PREVIOUS OPERATING SYSTEM once you have upgraded even if you factory reset.
I not have $25,000 worth of peripheral devices that will not work and no support form apple what so ever.
Beware
If someone has found a solution it would be great to hear it. I will keep cheking the post

IMovie "green screen" feature has serious problems.

I precisely followed the iMovie "help" instructions to make a green screen effect for what should have been a simple iMovie project... a 10-second video tagline for closing titles on a much more extensive project.
According to iMovie help, it should have been easy (and maybe even fun). It wasn't. Five hours of my life melted away forever. The iMovie "green screen" feature has serious problems. Remember that old Mac advertising campaign that said "It just works"? Well, it doesn't. Shame on Apple and the iMovie development team.
See low-resolution QuickTime movies and more details here:

Folks,
I ran into the same issue (I named it "transparent green screen", I hadn't a better name).
I spent about a week to solve this problem, since I needed it to build a marriage slideshow.
The tools & Config:
iMovie 09, iPhoto 09, Adobe After Effects CS4
Mac OS X 10.6.2, MacBook Pro 13" 2.26 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GB RAM
The Solution for the "transparent green screen":
I created a movie in AE, and put a green background into it. It was the pure green color.
When I imported the movie into iMovie I just got the "transparent green screen", not the real effect.
I some cases, by changing the background images, I could get the green screen to work, but it was kind of random. Which made it harder to solve it.
I thought it could be because of AE, some incompatibility. I went to Youtube and downloaded a green screen video (a woman dancing in a green background). I inserted the video into iMovie, and it worked just fine, all the way.
Then I tried to match the green color I was creating digitally with the Youtube video's green color. It didn't work either. The "transparent" effect was there again.
But when I looked at that Youtube video, I noticed that the green color was not pure. Because that green background was made in the real world, it was not pure, there were some shades of green.
Well, I just replicated that into the digital world. Modified my video's digital green background. From pure green to a gradient green, but very subtle, almost imperceptible. Just to replicate the "imperfection from the real world".
That was it. Solved. Maybe iMovie 09 needs that imperfection to work well. Using "pure greens" might confuses it.
Please do your tests. And let me know your results.
Regards and greetings from Brazil.

Upgrade to IOS-6 on my IPAD - problems

I have an alert on my IPAD under general setting up upgrade to IOS-6. However, it is not upgrading and I keep getting an error message and then it times out resulting in a failed upgrade to IOS-6. Is anyone else having this issue and if so, how can I fix it?

Only ipad2 and higher can upgrade. Original iPad is stuck at 5.1

After upgrade with iOS 7.1 on iphone problems

After the upgrade to iOS 7.1 my 2014 Honda Odyssey cannot import my contacts. It identifies my iphone but the only way I can call out is to go to my iphone and touch the name and then my car system sends the call and it is on my car speakers. I am not able to issue a voice command as it cannot import my contacts. Is anyone else having this problem? Kay

I too discovered the grayed out wifi after my update to 7.1, however I did a search myself. On a Canadian website they recommended the following:
http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/how-to/fix-wifi-greyed-out-iphone4s-ios7/
I did this and then the following:
After taking it out of the refrigerator I then put it in "Airplane" mode, then did a hard shut down by pushing the off button and home button simultaneously, waiting until the apple logo reappears. Then my wifi showed up, I moved the button to wifi and then turned off "Airplane" mode. This worked for me after weeks of not having wifi.
I hope this helps someone else who is just as frustrated as I was.

IOS 6 obviously has Bluetooth problems. Any news from Apple to fix it?

As many have discussed already, I'm too having issues pairing Bluetooth devices with the upgrade to iOS on my 3rd gen iPad and my Digital Gadgets Bluetooth keyboard case.

Great post John Cunningham3.
As far as I know I haven't lost any music and that's scary. Does anyone think Apple will reimburse these people???
I myself can listen with no problems and my podcasts are being updated as well, but I can't access anywhere in the store other than the front. Once I click the video section it shuts down.
What's interesting in all of this is with all of the media being bought out my companies affiliated by other companies will the "news" organizations listen to us???
I mean Apple is still linked with Disney through Pixar and Disney is the "parent company" of ABC what incentive does ABC have in making this story public.
Considering the splash they made at unveiling the iPods last week and how much positive press they received why didn't the news organizations respond to the iTunes Store fiasco???
I hope the fix comes out soon, but as John Cunningham3
already mentioned their silence is deafening.
Here's the number for Apple to call directly: 1-800-275-2273

Upgraded to ios 8.1 still 3g problem persists

i have upgraded my iphone 5 to ios 8.1 still 3g dosen't work..............
The problem still persists...

1) IMPORTANT- If you are using a Vzw Network Extender in your home or office, since update of iOS 8.1 you will always see extended mode on your phone, no matter what, for now. (4g HD calling not yet available through Vpn tunnel)
2) 8.1 apple update defaulted all the iPhone cellular mode LTE setting to data only. to fix, go to settings> Cellular > Enable LTE > Select Voice & Data. a check mark should appear within 30 seconds and Verizon will reappear on iPhone. If the check mark appears you are now back on Vzw cell network and have High Def calling. If not - complete a "hard reset on the iPhone" Do this by holding down your power button and home button until you see the apple logo on the screen, This actually disconnects the battery on the phone and forces the sim card to reach out to the towers and reinitialize settings.
If this does not work, toggle on and off Airplane Mode
If that does not work; go to settings> General> Reset> Reset Network Settings
Now if after all that your check mark does not appear or you get a pop box on the phone that says "call Vzw to enable LTE calls" then here is the solution:
Call Vzw, have them add the following 3 codes on your account:
A) Advanced Calling 1.0 - Vzw Feature Code 81143
B) High Def Voice - Vzw Feature Code 81158
C) High Def Access - Vzw Feature Code 81186
If you give the Vzw rep the three feature codes it will make your life easier because this is a very new issue!
Now you can hard reset and select LTE Voice and Data and get back on the Vzw Network

Upgraded to IOS 5 software and having problems synching music with my laptop

Not sure what happened, but after I downloaded the IOS 5.0 software upgrade I kept getting errors when trying to synch the ipone with itunes on my primary laptop that runs Windows Vista. None of my music can be synched becaise I continually get an error that the device is not recognized.

I would suggest opening "Apple Software Update" (from "All Programs" under "Start") so as to ensure that you have the most up-to-date version of iTunes.
Hope this helps!

New Update 1.1.1 Has Serious Problems!

my father in law had his iphone updated at the apple store and he lost all of his info. the mac idiot (far from genious) said that my father in laws computer died when installing update cause the mac idiot failed to plug it in when he was working on it. he did not care at all that he lost all of his pictures nor did he bother to back it up before he updated the software.
I was hesitant to update after that but i still had to try. i updated all photos and did a sync prior to updating. when i downloaded and installed update it said that i had to *"connect iphone to itunes"* in a yellow triangle on the iphone. well, it was already connected so i did nothing. about 4 minutes later it gave me an error saying that *"there was an unknown problem with update"*. i closed that window and then another window popped up and it said that *"itunes has detected an iphone that is in recovery mode and needs to be restored."* so while i bit my lip i hit restore and it took a while cause of all the songs i had in my iphone. it synced everything back up to where i had it except the photos which i backed up in iphoto before hand. what a major pain in the butt!! Thanks Apple.
i thought all of this would be worth it because of the new fix to the speaker/earpiece volume issue. come to find out my volume is exactly the freaken same. what a bunch of BS. that really ****** me off big time. i can't believe it. apple got me all excited for this update just to let me down again.
the next thing i did was call my close friend jedhed and told him what happened. he said he would try the update with his phone and see what happens. he called me back a half hour later and said the same exact thing. he had to restore and that his volume was exactly the same as well. I called my father in law next to see if his volume was any louder and he said his was the same as well. i updated my wife's next same problem. had to restore and volume is no different. that is 4 out of 4 phones that have no increase in volume and had major issues with software update 1.1.1. now i have read a lot of the forms and i see some people saying that there volume is great and they had no problems with updating. i even saw people stating that their ipod volume was significantly louder too even though that was not part of the update according to the apple user agreement. all i saw was a fix to the earpiece and speaker volume on the phone not the ipod. so i don't understand people who are claiming that. now, is this volume increase people are claiming just in there heads. everywhere that i have read when people compare newer software with older software notice no difference. they you have people just say its way louder. are they crazy or is it way louder.
i am trying to understand the theory that some of the phones may have no problems with updating and are experiencing louder speaker volume but why would i get 4 out of 4 phones with same issue. if that was the case you would think that at least one of these 4 phones would be fine with the update and have louder speaker volume right? what is going on here? this is extremely frustrating and i am getting sick of it. this earpiece/speaker volume has to be fixed. it is way overdue. and for some of you stating that the volume was fine before the fix are just plane nuts. you must either have wolf hearing or your working in a lab with where it is so quiet you could hear a dust mite ****! give me a break. if your one of these people PLEASE don't reply to this post. i don't have time for your excellency.
if anyone has any thoughts on this subject please feel free to share them. i would really like to get some people posting some truth on this thread. Apple needs to hear us and do something about this once and for all. also, please don't even bring up anything about hacking phones or third party software as that does not apply to this situation at all. none of this phones have been hacked or have third party software, thank you.

Same issue here on 2 8GB phones (my phone and GF's phone.) Pretty annoying. Phones were not modded, hacked, or unlocked... ever. Bone stock.
One was updated using a PC, the other using a MacBook. iTunes of the latest version on both machines, both machines and phones rebooted before start. Both phones had auto lock disabled before starting the update process.
My phone was at version 1.0.2, and hers was at 1.0.1.
In-Call Volume of receiver and speaker is still very poor on both, but a teensy eensy bit better.
System sounds are much louder now and acceptable.
The vibrate function no longer works on the GF's phone post 1.1.1

Hi .i cant connect my camera roll to my hp laptop i have a 5s and i think ever since i upgraded to ios 7,1,1 this problem apeared

why can't i connect my camera roll any more? i have a 5s and recently i cant connect my camera roll to my lap top

Hello!
When you plug in your iPhone something shouldve poped up on your iPhone screen, saying Trust this computer? you may have accidentally pressed "Dont trust" if so it locks all photos on your phone so you cant see them from the computer. I would try another USB port and that same thing may pop up and make sure to press "Trust"
Also, you can try to go into my documents and on the left side you'll see "This PC" press that and you'll see an iphone on the screen, right click on it and it should have an option to "import pictures and videos" this may also work.
If this doesnt work please let us know!!
Best of luck!

COLOR has serious problems

Just finished my first color grading job in COLOR. I'll never subject myself to that kind of pain again.
This was a simple scene to scene CC job captured from digibeta with BM 10bit at 29.97. The footage was a final & locked edit for a network show.
Used FCP to cut up the edit then SEND to color with a resounding crash, every time.
So, I reloaded the entire FCP suite and ran the updates, tried again, same results.
With the deadline looming large, I imported the entire clip into color and cut it up there. And did all CC work... it was perfect, yeah, until the output.
Using SEND to FCP didn't crash! But the fun was over when I checked it against the orginal edit. Every edit was clipped by 1 frame at the end. Plus the extra bonus of FCP putting 5 frame gaps between each edit. Yes, yes the frame rates, image size, pixel aspect and interlace where the same between Color and FCP and the source footage.
So, now it's 8pm the runner from the show has now been waiting for an hour, my phone is ringing every 5 mins with producers screaming.
now what do ya do?
Yep, exactly, I went back to COLOR and rendered 65 stills of the last frame of each edit. then dumped all 65 back into fcp. and TA-DA! it was finished.
But, still not exactly a happy ending. It seems that color did something to the images causing them to look soft, like a compression or ?
Someday COLOR will be a useful tool... Meanwhile it's back to ae for cc, uhhhggg

I find these kinds of posts bemusing! It's always the same thing - 'Color ruined my life when I had deadline!' I think there are a couple of things that people should bear in mind with Color...
Color was developed from a very specific industry tool, Final Touch, which was never designed to be an application that anyone could just jump on in with, have a play around and expect everything to work. Although it is an extremely sophisticated tool it's also fairly crudely put together, quite the opposite to something like Motion for instance which can be driven by a five year old without too much danger of breaking anything. In the case of Color I think you really have to read the manual properly, take time to prepare your material for use in the application, and doing some testing during some downtime.
As far as practical advice would go for your case in particular: If the 'send to' was crashing it might suggest an XML export issue. Did you make sure that there were no elements in the sequence that Color cannot handle? Nested sequences in particular will screw up an XML export.
Did you specify handle lengths within Color? Easily missed but I had a similar issue a while back with each last frame rendering out corrupt - solved by adding handles.
Also I know that Autosave has in the past caused some frame rendering issues so I just leave it off now.
On the whole I've had a mixed experience with Color but what I have learned is that the user has to share some responsibility and make sure they are fully prepared when using the app.
Hope that's a help!

Problems with music app after upgrading to iOS 5

i'm very particular with the organization of my ipod stuff. it has to have album art and it has to be properly sorted out by artist and album. after upgrading to iOS 5 i found several problems with the music app:
1. some artists dont show on the artist section. i've tried fixing the album artist info, sorting info etc and nothing.
2. some albums duplicate themselves in the albums section and it only gets cured if you delete a certain song in the album. if you try putting the song back the albums duplicate again.
3. some album art dont show. i've tried plugging in the album cover directly to the song/s in the ipod, and deleting the song and recopying the song from itunes and still nothing.
anyone care to weigh in?
did i mess up the installation?

I just spent hours trying to solve same (I have a iPod Touch 4th Gen) and I am very picky about its organization too. What I can tell you:
1- The artists suddenly not showing in the artist section: Double-check that their albums are not marked as "part of a compilation"... because I had 8 artists disappearing after the upgrade and all their albums were marked as "part of...". After removing that "compilation" tag, all 8 artists reappeared where they had been all along under the previous iOS, namely under the Artists category.
2- I had an album that did not want the artwork to show. And each time I was able to transfer it back with the art, it would duplicate tracks on the iPod Touch. I finally was able to solve it by deleting manually from the iPod the album (by slowing dragging my finger to the right on the album title and click on the delete button when it appeared) then by deleting it also from the iTunes library and syncing. Then I reloaded the album in iTunes and resynced on the iPod Touch and the album reappeared without duplicates and with the artwork.
3- Finally, one album was correct (track-wise) but no artwork. I double-checked everything and manually check the info for each track and 2 tracks had not artwork attached to it and a 3rd had 2 artworks. I manually attached the correct artwork to each track THEN to the whole album. Then I resynced and everything FINALLY worked fine.
OUFF!

After the upgrade the ios 7

After the upgrade the ios 7 phone has become the brick from the fact that the previous one was out of their apple id, we have no contact what do I do?telephone purchased with hands, but all documents photographed.

Nothing you can do without the previous owners info.
Did you not get that person phone number?
If I had to guess that person sold you a stolen iphone.
You now have a paperweight.
Next time purchase a phone from an authorized apple dealer.
