  • IMessage problems after iOS6 update

    Hi All,
    Is anyone getting similar problems to this after iOS6 updates?
    My iPad is used on 2 wifi networks, my home network and work wifi, I pick the pad up on a morning, shove it in my bag, go to work and pick up the wifi there, carry on as normal, repeat in reverse when heading in the opposite direction.
    On iOS5, my iMessages would simply carry on the conversation when rejoining either network *there is no 3g connection on this ipad*
    Since updating, I leave for home, get to work and iMessage refuses to resume, messages stick at about 90% sent, then fail, I head home , rejoin the home network and boom, it just picks up where it left off
    When at work, occasionally it might start working after 10 minutes or so, but today i've been sat about 5 hours so far, no dice
    I have tried just about every combination of restarts, resets, updates I can think of, including, changing the DNS on my device to the same one I use at home *8.8.8.8* , shutting iMessage down, renewing the DHCP lease, Hard resets, soft resets ,  forget wifi network, restore network setting  you name itI've tried it
    Under iOS5 I had used the device for months without doing so much as a power down and not had one single 'not delivered' failure on an iMessage, since iOS6 I've probably had abotut 50% service from this.
    As far as I know, nothing has changed on either wifi networks, everything else works fine on the works network, browings, itunes, app store, skype etc etc.
    I'm at a loss as to what to do next, and yes, I've also done a full device restore as well for good measure, with a iCloud back up, again, it restored, went to messages and it just sat there doing nothing until I got home , where the messages just sent first go.
    Massively frustrated in what I can only see as something that's been introduced as a result of this iOS6 upgrade.

    I may have found my own answer... it seems that anything less than 3 bars of wifi signal after rejoining a network and the message wont send, I switched my device off, moved closer to the wifi router, tricky as it's in another building, rebooted, managed to get two bars of wifi, still wouldn't send, moved even closer to the router manged to just get 3 bars and pow, the message sent right away!
    Moved away back to my normal desk at work, signal dropped to 2/1 bars of wifi, however now, messages continue to send now.
    Clearly when I'm at home I'm only ever a few feet away from my wifi router and always have solid 3 bars of signal, not the case at work.
    However, this still only appears to be something that's been introduced at the iOS6 update as this was never an issues prior to this, but has been an issue right from day one after updating!

    I recently upgraded my iphone 4 to ios6 on wifi. My laptop charger has been broken for a while so i havn't been able to sync my iphone to my itunes or back it up in any way. Now that the ios6 upgrade is done, my phone completely turned off and is now showing on the screen to plug in my phone to itunes.
    DESPERATE, i am back on my laptop with a borrowed charger and i plugged my phone into itunes. It now says i have to restore it back to factory settings. Meaning, i will lose all of my contacts, pictures, etc. because i havn't been able to back it up onto my laptop.
    I definitely don't want anything deleted off of my phone. Did any body else have this problem? Is there ANYTHING i can do to refrain from restoring it and losing all of my memory?
      Couldn't you have backed it up to the "iCloud"? or some other cloud based storage before you did the upgrade? If you do not back things up before you upgrade your OS, you are only asking for things to go wrong.

  • Sound problems after ios6

    So i have upgraded to ios6, ever since i have no sound when playing music or videos, buttons or apps. Siri and ring tone stilll works but nothing else. The mute button is not on when i press the volume button it just comes up as "ringer" no up or down info. I have rebooted a few times, tried pulling the head phones in and out and it still is not working. I am currently restoring the phone so hopefully that will help. has anyone else experienced this??/

    I had/have a similar problem.  I upgraded a 4s the day ios 6 was released and had absolutely no issues.  About 2 weeks later, i tried deleting music files that were duplicated from iTunes - this existed befoer the upgrade - and couldn't delete them all. I decided to retore the phone from a backup and during the restore, iTunes re-downloaded the ios6.0 update and re-applied it. 
    since then, my phone audio is too loud - causing a speaker rattle on the handset - and the volume buttons make no diference.  they indicate that audio is going up or down but no change happens to the actual volume.  music is fine, it's just call volume.  using a headset doesn't exhibit the same problem. 
    After the restore, I also started getting the wifi problem where the iphone will not automatically connect to networks that it used to.  there are 3 other iPhone 4s' in the house that have also been upgraded and they do NOT have the same problem.
    After a couple of weeks of frsutration on this, i'm currently re-installing the phone/ios etc.

  • Iphone4 battery problem after ios6 upgrade

    drastic reduction of battery life after upgrade to ios6 . Help

    This seems to be a major problem for all IPhone 4 users, apple will definitely repair this in the next update. For know you can:
    Adjust brightness: Dimming the screen is another way to extend battery life. Go to Settings > Brightness & Wallpaper and drag the slider to the left to lower the default screen brightness. In addition, turning on Auto-Brightness allows the screen to adjust its brightness based on current lighting conditions. Go to Settings > Brightness & Wallpaper and set Auto-Brightness to On.
    Turn off push mail: If you have a push mail account such as Yahoo! or Microsoft Exchange, turn off push when you don't need it. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and set Push to Off. Messages sent to your push e-mail accounts will now be received on your phone based on the global Fetch setting rather than as they arrive.
    Fetch new data less frequently: Applications such as Mail can be set to fetch data wirelessly at specific intervals. The more frequently e-mail or other data is fetched, the quicker your battery may drain. To fetch new data manually, from the Home screen choose Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and tap Manually. To increase the fetch interval, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and tap Hourly. Note that this is a global setting and applies to all applications that do not support push services.
    Turn off push notifications: Some applications from the App Store use the Apple Push Notification service to alert you of new data. Applications that extensively rely on push notifications (such as instant messaging applications) may impact battery life. To disable push notifications, go to Settings > Notifications and disable notifications for select applications. Note that this does not prevent new data from being received when the application is opened. Also, the Notifications setting will not be visible if you do not have any applications installed that support push notifications.
    Minimize use of location services: Applications that actively use location services such as Maps may reduce battery life. To disable location services, go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services or use location services only when needed.
    I hope my answer was usefull, if so do not forget to click (this helped me) or (this solved my question), thank you!

  • FaceTime Problem After An Upgrade/New Number?

    Hi
    Someone I know has upgraded their iPhone and had temporary number while their PAC code was used to change that temporary number back to their old one that they had had on their old phone.
    They can be texted and called in the traditional manner on their original number now their temporary one has been updated, but their iMessage and FaceTime has stuck with their temporary number that they only had for 36 hours and now that the main phone number has been re-instated they can not be reached on FaceTime on that number, only on their temporary number that they no longer have.
    How can they transfer their FaceTime number from the temporary one that they had just very briefly after getting the new handset. to their main number that they had before and have now?
    Thanks

    Try logging out of the existing Apple ID with iMessage and FaceTime on the iPhone followed by logging back in with the Apple ID which should register the old phone number that has now been re-activated with the iPhone.

  • Iphone 5 batt problems after ios6.1.2

    Hi guys,
    Someone, please teach me how to downgrade ios6.1.2 to ios.6.0.... Greatly appreciated!

    not that I am aware of.  I have a 4S with 6.1.2 and my battery life is noticeably MUCH worse.  Waiting for an update to be released that addresses this.  It seems to be semi wide spread.
    Here are some tips from Apple: http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html

  • Facetime problem after updated to Lion

    I can't log in to my facetime fpr mac. It says "The server encounter an error processing registration."

    Hello Everyone!
    Since our Lion upgrade, we're unable to use the mic/ hear any audio on any of our machines.  2 of our machines had the FT 1.0.2 version prior, but since the upgrade on 3 of our machines none of the 3 will/ can hear any audio.  We've read similar concerns, tried changing the DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 etc and no luck.  We tried setting the programs to open with the 32 bit and no luck.  We're able to call our desktop FaceTime successfully with our iPhones with comeplete audio just like the program ran with Snow Leopard but that was then.  We're stumped with this one, apparently we're blocked with audio as well as our in-laws in Australia on their two machines since they upgraded...  They two can use it when their iPhones call themselves but thats it?
    Is Apple working on a remedy?  We'd hate to think we paid for something that not only doesn't work, but some of the responses we read actually encourages the user to go back and buy the prior version that isn't Lion compatible!
    Scorced in Phoenix!

  • Does anybody has problem with playing youtube in Opera Mini after iOS6 update?

    After iOS6 update I can not play youtube from Opera Mini,- neither link to youtube works and embedded video as well. It works ok with Safari, but I prefer using Opera Mini instead. If there is a embedded youtube video or just a link to m.youtube, Opera mini does nothing:(

    Cool, in OperaMini forum, there is an answer, that issue has been noticed and will be solved someday!
