Fed up with iphone

As many of other people in here have written, since the 2.2.1 update I have had problems with my wifi. When at home, I cannot connect to safari as my phone apparently cannot connect to the internet, despite there being full signal on display - as soon as I try to access even to apple homepage the signal disappears. I;m afraid I'm not as technically minded as many who use these forums, but its quite annoying to say the least. I have tried (as advised), network restore, full restore and now restoring the iphone to original settings. Went to my local Apple store in Bluewater yesterday and the pleb on the shop floor told me he'd heard of the problem but that he was sure resetting network settings for me would work...before leaving I queried it saying I had already done this, but he knew best. Suffice to say when I got home I was right - so arranged an appointment at the genius bar this morning. The lady I saw was most polite but told me to go home and reset the phone to original settings and that may work...apparently she'd heard nothing of this problem.. So, here we are now, another restore done and still the same problem. I cannot believe that Apple know nothing of this as the lady tried to tell me today - how can so many people on here have the problem?? I look after my phone, sad as it may be but its my pride and joy and it doesn't work. I've tried trauling through the forum but has anyone actually had any positive response from Apple in the UK?? Sod's law, but when I go in to the Apple store the wifi works, but not at home even though Airport EXpress and ibook all run on the same router. Sorry its a waffle and I know I am not alone but it is so annoying especially when you're lead to believe you have a great product with great back up from the manufacturer.......any help greatly appreciated

if i had to guess, i think you need to rest your wifi router. I had a similar problem before where i would be connected to my network, with full bars, but couldn't get online. i logged into my router and noticed that the MAC address of my iphone was associated with a different IP that the router was giving it. basically, the DHCP table had the iphone's listed as say 192.168.1.2 but the phone was actually assigned 192.168.1.3 (neither address was being used by another device on the network). so my options were to manually enter in the IP that the DHCP table in the router had, empty/refresh the DHCP table or to reset the router to factory settings. I just manually entered in the IP that the router has listed for the iPhone because it was the easiest thing for me to do.
there's probably a conflict happening with what the router thinks the iphone's IP is and what it's actually assigning the iphone. instead of reseting the iphone, try reseting the router to factory settings and set up your network again.

Contact your carrier and ask them.

I am fed up with Spring and Apple passing me off to one another and neither will fix the problem. I am unable to receive a connection on my phone.

The internet goes out and I have to reset network setting each and every time. This is only a temporary solution which by the time I release the line with Spring or leave the apple store the issue is back. Sprint indicates that it is a know issue with the Iphone 5 and apple says it is a network issue as Sprint's network is not up to par with the Iphone and can not meet the expectations on the Iphone 5.
I have attached a few picture, as you can see it clearly says I have 5 bars and 3g available but I have no connections what so ever.
This issue affects all data and so I can not send or receive picture messages, use apps, or access the internet. The data goes in and out intermittently and it seems the phone chooses what I can and can't do.
For example I can watch Youtube or Vevo videos but I can not access Facebook or Instagram.
Is anyone else having this issue?
I will soon loose my patience....
I have reset my phone three time and have reset network and other setting mutltiple times.

So fed up with Verizon?!!

Why is it that when you call Verizon, no one there seems to answer the same question with the same answer? NO one is ever on the same page. How can Verizon say they truly value their customers? Have they read any of these reviews or better business reviews? or consumer cellular reports! whoo hoo they made it to one whole star! ( out of 5) I can tell everyone is so satisfied! Anyway... On to my rant....
recently I added two existing lines to my account- went into a Verizon store to discuss some options- which I was later informed was some sort of side bar to Verizon and they are all a bunch of ****** that don't know what they actual "policies" of Verizon are- they just get to sell their phones and use the Verizon name on their building... while I was there I called the assumption of liability line- discussed the date with an employee that I needed to move the 2 lines over in order to avoid any pro ration. I happened to have the other party with me that day, so we were able to get everything lined up so that all I had to do was call on the date and move the lines over.... I also recently added a new Ipad, and iphone 6 plus to my account- another 400$ given to Verizon.... not to mention the cases and screen protectors I bought from them as well. Before this was all done, I was already FED up with Verizon. ready to leave and go with another carrier. But I thought you know what I have been with them for 10 years now... so lets give them a shot, and hopefully some changes will be executed as promised by the commission based reps at Verizon. After getting my first bill. I was in shock! Do you think anyone mentioned anything about a month in advance fee? There were charges that were incorrect, discounts that weren't applied. ect. so upon calling now 5 times, speaking with 2 supervisors, 2 chat associates and almost 2 months later there is STILL no resolution. One of the supervisors I spoke with explained to me that when you receive your first "new" bill you will see the month in advance fee and it will be for the first 2 months essentially, and then the bill will be normal. I even had him send me a text stating that the next bill for these two new lines will not be until a certain date. But now... that's not correct either. Promise after promise by supervisors and employees- no one keeps their word at Verizon. so disappointing - the best part is.... its 40$..that's it... I don't care if its the correct protocol, billing policy- whatever you want to call it. an employee of Verizon told me on a recorded line I would not be billed for these 2 lines for that month... but that doesn't matter because no one tells the same story! EVER... and no one gives a crap about calling anyone back.. any one have any contact numbers or additional contact information to go above a supervisor??!!

Every time I dealt with Verizon, I got a paper receipt, in hand, which I signed before leaving the store. The reciept also shows in "my documents" in my online account.
DId you look over the reciept?
DId it match the purchases you made?
WHen you added a new iPad and phone on a 2 year subsidized purchase, you would be paying $40 a month for the line. Does this appear on your bill? When you purchase a subsidized device, you are not eligible for a discount on that line. Is this the missing discount you are looking for?
I'm trying to understand what errors Verizon has made, if any, on your bill. All I have to go on is your first post. Based on that post, your bill would have gone up considerably the first month. Upgrade fees, next month of service and loss of discount on lines with subsidized devices.
These are not uncommon complaints.
All carriers now require customers to pay for their phones, one way or another.
3 Options:
1.   full retail price upfront, you keep your line discount.
2.   Full retail in installments on Edge, you keep your line discount
3.   A portion up front on a subsidized, 2 year contract, you loose the line discount and pay activation or upgrade fee.
Which of these applies to the new iPad and iPhone?

Fed up with your X6 anyone? Add your bugs...

X6 owners - fed up with your terrible quality phone?
Please have a read and add your own bugs if you want - I want to write to Nokia with some of the main ones that need to get sorted, and soon. Surely with enough support / evidence they can't ignore us (although I'm not holding my breath!). You know, I'm struggling to find a thread on this forum which isn't about an 'issue', 'bug' or 'problem' with the phone. I'm fed up with it. We all paid a lot of money for the phone (whether it was part of a contract or not) and I just want it to WORK.
It is without doubt the worst phone I've ever owned. Anyone else with me?
Glitchy, buggy, slow and unpredictable don't even begin to describe it...I'm now on my second one, with the first one deciding to pack up a few months back with a dropping signal problem (from full bar to no bar in about 5 seconds, and then back to full back about 15 seconds later) - Nokia deemed it BER and after a letter from me, replaced it with a new one...the fact that the second one has exactly the same issues as the first confirm to me just how terrible the build quality of the phone is.
Any of the below issues sound familar to anyone? Some are phone related, others app/Ovi/Nokia related :
* Ovi Maps freezing during navigation, even when you're not interacting with the phone or running any background apps. Literally just spontaneously. Requires hard restart most of the time as you can rarely force it to close.
* iPhone 4 style signal issue whereby holding it in a normal 'phone grip' fashion results in signal dropping completely or nearly completely.
* General signal drops during calls - anyone else notice you can be on a phone call in a full signal area (with 3G etc) and calls will just drop; take a look at your phone and you have no signal? Give it 30 seconds and you'll be back up to full bars again.
* Spotify (if anyone has it) just randomly crashing ALL THE TIME, again without any background apps running (ironially it seems to be more reliable with a few things running in the background)
* Facebook app thinks stuff that happened two weeks ago is the latest news that it wants to tell me about. Hit refresh and it still thinks old news is new news. Reinstall and wiping of all user data to no joy (same issue even post-phone reset)
* "Realplayer" able to play about 3% of videos I want to watch on the internet - basically a few MPEGs...don't even think about a low-res MP4 stream (where we get the dreaded "Trying to play partially" message). Any UK owners tried running a stream off m.tvcatchup.com? Good luck!
* (Just a general gripe here but) Lack of widget support for the homescreen and general lack of integration support for 3rd party apps to the OS - why oh WHY in this day and age of smart phones are S60v5 Nokias unable to have apps like Facebook spider in to some of the phone's functions? E.g. notifications on the homescreen (the original iPhone was able to do this in January 2007, its now September 2010 Nokia - wakey wakey) and profile pictures linked in with the phone's address book (my friend's HTC Desire does this VERY nicely; I'm jealous).
Before my X6, I had a 6230i (don't laugh, I know its ancient but it worked a treat, absolutely bomb proof which is why I never bothered upgrading)...I just don't understand how backwards this phone seems to be in terms of its flimsy build quality and diabolical OS.
This will definitely be my last ever Nokia. Seriously...I've been a Nokia fanboy all my life but I'm just embarassed by this phone. It is absolute rubbish and I so so so wish I'd gotten a Blackberry or Android. Talk about less hassle.
I'm running v21.0.0.4, although I feel I might as well be running an Alpha build of S60v5.
Any other annoyances and bugs, boys and girls?
p.s. the camera may be its sole redeeming feature - very good photo quality for a phone - takes the iPhone to the cleaners.

On balance I agree with bazyeo, I am another long term X6 owner (Dec 09) and on the whole I am fairly pleased with the phone. Sure it's not perfect and one of my major personal gripes with the phone is the relatively poor RAM allocation that Nokia decided upon during the hardware design but it's hardly a show stopper for me. I guess I was spoilt as my previous phone was a Nokia N82.

Oh come on!! This is a user support forum, you know? Where people come for help when they have problems with their phones. It's pretty obvious that you'll read the majority of threads where owners have issues... that's because they have come here for help. You're hardly going to get a bunch of threads where owners turn up out of the blue to thank Nokia for a problem free phone. That's like saying all you see at a hospital are sick people.

Not even close, try the N80 on V3 firmware... now that was an order of magnitude worse.

Ovi maps does hit hard on resources but I personally haven't suffered the issues you speak of.
I can get my X6 to drop maybe a bar (at the very max 2 bars) of signal if I wrap my hands around the handset. Again for me, not a big issue.
I'm afraid I don't use Spotify or Facebook so can't comment on those issues of yours.
Knowing what codecs to use helps with video playback using Real Player. A search here should give you the required information. I can run MP4, FLV & WMV quite happily provided they have the right codecs that the X6 can handle. If you want to enjoy m.tvcatchup.com then try installing the 3rd party web browser called Skyfire.
There are quite a few alternative 3rd party homescreens that can add widget functionality to the homescreen.
Good luck with your letter to Nokia, I'm afraid I won't be signing your petition. As I said right at the top of this post, sure I have niggles with the X6 but none of them are show stoppers for me and personally I can forgive the X6 most things because I really enjoy the quality of the screen and the capacitive touch interface.
*EDIT* I almost forgot to ask... is yours a SIM free X6 or a network branded X6?

Fed Up with My not so SmartWatch

Still having problems trying to get my Smartwatch to register with my Samsung S5830 Android phone It just will not register and so its totally useless as it doesnt even work as a watch without the phone !. Any help would be appreciated. I've done the reload of apps etc. There's no way to check the watch has got the latest OS as even when its plugged into my W7 PC it just charges. Really fed up with this item. I did a bit of research before buying it and I even swapped to an android from my Iphone so feel a bit 'seen off'. There's absolutely no help from Sony which is really annoying you would think they had someone technical available to resolve whats probably a minor issue.

Have you installed the SmartWatch app from Play Store? If not, please do so.

Fed up with resetting my BT Home Hub 3 and it's so...

I keep having to reset my BT Home Hub 3 because of problems with wireless connections.
The Hub is close to all the equipment.
I have lots of things connected to it:
-          iPhones - Slow not much better that 3G
-          Blackberrys
-          Macbook - Very fast
-          2 Dell Laptops - Slow
-          New model Panasonic TV – Viera ST50 Series – Has Wireless inbuilt – New this year - Slow + buffering problems
-          Sky Box connected via Netgear WN2000RPT Wifi Range Extender - Slow + buffering problems
-          Hard wired PC - Very fast
All worked fine with my old Netgear Router (before I changed to BT).
When I first had this Hub (it’s my 2nd) all was OK for a couple of weeks.
After a while (usually a few days after resetting BT Home Hub) the older Dell Laptop will keep losing its connection.   Once the problem starts the laptop might last for 5 or 10 minute intervals, lose connection and then automatically reconnect, etc, etc.
I'm will to accept that the Laptop is old, but when the Laptop is playing up the TV plays up too.   The Internet on the TV’s also fails.
The answer is to reboot the BT Home Hub.   The Laptop and TV are then both OK (for a few days).
I’m getting fed up with resetting the Hub.   Especially as it has dropped out while watching online TV.
All the other devices appear OK (maybe slow but remain connected).   Only the older laptop and the TV actually lose connection.   But resetting the BT Hub fixes the problem for a few days.   So the hub is at fault.
Recently I’ve been getting other problems.   Now whenever I need to reset the BT Home Hub I need to disconnect the Netgear WN2000RPT.   If I don’t disconnect the Netgear the BT Home Hub appears to start up and connect OK and everything appears to connect to the Hub OK. But then none of the Internet content works.   Websites don’t work, TV reports no content.
Now whenever I reset the BT Home Hub I must first turn off the Netgear WN2000RPT.   Previously this never used to be a problem.
In case compatibility with the Netgear WN2000RPT is an issue I now usually leave it unplugged.   I only turn it on for Internet content from Sky.
But the problems described above continue even when Netgear WN2000RPT is turned off.
When playing up the Laptop sometimes shows “Unsecure Connection”. I wonder if it’s picked up the BT FON connection (but it shows the normal connection).    I suspect the start of the problems may have coincided with the activation of BT FON on the box (could this have taken 2 weeks?).   I’m sure that it was BT FON that completely broke my first BT Home Hub 3, we had had it about a week, then wifi would not connect from anything, after hours on the phone to BT support we could not establish a wireless connection to the Hub, but strangely all was OK on the FON connection.
We have BT Infinity.
Hub is generally slow.   Wired Internet is lightning fast.   New Macbook (using Chrome) via wifi is lightning fast.   Everything else disappointingly slow.   TV and Sky both have buffering issues.
Any ideas?
Solved!

The HH3 has the ability to hop around the various Wireless Channels (of which there are 14, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels for indepth info) to enable the hub to pick the best channel for you, taking into account any cordless phones, mobile phones, microwaves etc, all of which could interfere with your wireless signal.
By reseting you HH3 you are forcing it back to its factory default channel (Channel 7 I guess). Over a period of days, the HH3 may decide that its default channel isn't the most appropriate and select another channel based on what interference it 'sees'- clearly if it gets this wrong (as my HH3 did) then you potentially get wireless reception issues.
Consequently, I decided to manually find out what the best channel was by install a wireless scanner (free @ http://www.metageek.net/products/inssider/), then:
1. Manually change the HH3 Channel (via its settings)
2. Check the wireless reception 'power' using inSSider installed on the laptop around your house, ie next to your TV etc.
3. When you find the channel that gives you the best wireless reception, tell the HH3 to remain on that Channel by disabling the 'Smart Wireless' feature (there's some info on this @ http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/32236/~/how-do-i-change-the-wireless-channel-on-my-bt...)
As I say, my HH3's range was useless until I forced it to stick to a set Channel, now I have reliable coverage all around the house. Hope this is some help.

cont contact apple server error please help with ipad touch 4. im just fed up with apple please help me because why is it only apple with these kind of problems?

If you mean updae server
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
Otherwise what server are you talking about

Fed up with Apple, change to Samsung?

S6 Edge and a Samsung Tab.....marriage made in heaven

For various reasons I'm fed up with Apple and I'm thinking of switching to Samsung. I had a Galaxy S5 for a short while and didn't like it but I'm thinking of changing my tablet from an iPad to a Tab S this time so everything should work together properly (in theory!). Before I do this I have some questions: 1. Which is better, the Galaxy 6 or 6 Edge? I've read reviews but it's interesting to hear peoples' opinions.2. Is it easy (or possible) to transfer contacts from an iPhone to a Galaxy?3. Will I need a new SIM card or can O2 just change me from an iPhone plan to a 'normal' plan? Thanks in advance for any opinions/advice.

How Can I Use Bluetooth For Sharing With iPhones?

Hello, i have an iPod touch 3rd Gen. 32GB, And I'm Wondering How Could I Share Music or Photos With My Cousin's iPhone (Jailbroken iPhone), When I Turn The Bluetooth On, Nothing Shows Up On My iPod Or On Here iPhone,
So How Could I Share Things With Her I Have ''File Share'' And ''Bump'' Apps
So what should I Do???

You can't share music over air or by Bluetooth because of several reasons of which is understandable by apple. Apple doesn’t provide any way for you to copy files from your iPod back to your Mac/ between iPods or iPhones. While there are legitimate reasons for blocking bi-directional copying— which again the word music piracy comes to the mind
The only thing that I heard that you could share with iPhone to iPhone/ iPod touch is photos&contacts an app called "bump" and "Bluetooth photo share". With those applications you and your friend can share photos/phone contacts and other kind of files.
"Bump" application link below:

I am so fed up with Apple and their lack of testing on Security Updates!!!!

I am so fed up with Apple, i have lost all hope in them whatsoever. Today i installed the Security Update 2007-009 1.1 and when prompted to restart did so, only to wait 5 minutes with my computer just idling and not restarting. So I then went to the apple menu to restart but still nothing happened. Pushed the Power button on my Mac and it brought up the dialog box for:
...Log off...Restart...Shutdown
But then it quickly logged-out giving me no time to even click on restart , so i logged back in , tried again, and of course it did the same thing again, so i logged back in and force shutdown holding down the power button for 5 seconds. Finally it shut down so i then Powered it back up, logged in with no problems.
Since the Security Update includes the update of Logic 8.0.1, I went straight to it in applications but found the Logic icon & Logic Node icon replaced by Blue folder icons. Upon clicking on Logic i was prompted with an error stating that it could not open because the file was corrupt, so i decided to delete Logic and along with Logic Node and empty the trash so that it would remove all its files. But now when i clicked on Trash, the window would not come up. I tried just empty trash from the dock but it would not empty the trash either. I can not open any finder window from my dock's Finder Icon.
I can open finder by clicking on Macintosh HD on my desktop but when i navigate through my folders all of my file icons have these weird sort of Distorted Scan lines through them.
So i decided i would open disk utility and try and repair whatever the **** is going on. Pressed verify Disk and it tried to Verify the disk but came back a minute after idling, giving me this error:
Verifying volume “Macintosh HD”
Checking HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.
Checking multi-linked files.
Checking Catalog hierarchy.
Checking Extended Attributes file.
Checking volume bitmap.
Checking volume information.
Invalid volume free block count
(It should be (It should be 4 instead of 6294237)
Volume Header needs minor repair
The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair
Here is a screenshot of Disk Utility: http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g269/DjViral/Picture1.png
So obviously something is wrong because it reported failure on exit and Disk Utility will not even let me click on "Repair Disk", it is just faded out, un-click-able.
I would like to know what is wrong, and why Apple is releasing such **** as Security Updates. I mean isn't the whole point of a security update to make your computer more secure. Is this a joke or something?
I have lost all respect for you Apple. Not too mention this happened only 2 months ago with your last security update and i had to get my computer serviced which took 3 weeks. You better explain yourselves, apologize and start getting your sorry act together.

when prompted to restart did so, only to wait 5 minutes with my computer just idling and not restarting. So I then went to the apple menu to restart but still nothing happened. Pushed the Power button on my Mac
You should not have done that, it is a process that should never be interrupted.
For next time:
There are no guarantees, but following this procedure when installing updates and upgrades on your Mac will go a long way towards avoiding unpleasant after effects and ‘post-update stress disorder’.
It is also worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
So before you do anything else:
If you can, make a full backup first.
Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
Disconnect all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site. If your car runs on gasoline you would not want to fill the tank with diesel, so don’t try to install the PPC updater on an Intel Mac!
If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.4.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.4.9 to 10.4.10. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
Now proceed as follows:
4. Close all applications.
5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious!
9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them 10.4.10. compliant. Give them a weeks or two while you regularly check their websites for updates. This applies particularly to plug-ins for Safari 3.
N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.
Lastly, Apple's own article on the subject of Software Update may also be useful reading:

After ios 8 update I can no longer play music through my car. I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue - which has its own cable made to use with iPhone 4 - I use a apple adapter to converst to use with 5. Has been working fine up until update. Is there a fix for this? The car does not have usb

Here I come to save the daaaaaaaaaay!!!
Had the same issue with my Nissan Rogue 2011.
This listed below will fix it...
Go to General > Restrictions > CarPlay -- Make sure Carplay is DISABLED. (The new IOS 8 enables this on default)
Go to General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
The Nissan Rogue radio system was never designed to work with CarPlay. By default, CarPlay feature comes enabled when you install IOS 8. Suckz, right?
You're very welcome! Have a great day!
Sincerely,
The Superhero
