Google Images not working on iPhone safari (3GS, 5.1.1)

I have run into a small bit of trouble with my iPhone's Safari Browser. For some reason, Google Images is not allowing me to open images of go to the next page of images.
Example: I run "Lotus" (as in the automobile) into Google and click images. It shows the thumbnails of the sportscar, but when I click on any thumbnail, it does not open like it normally would. When I hold down onto the thumbnail, it gives me an option to save the image of copy it, not open it.
Also, when I go to the page over arrow to see the photos on page two, it does not move from page one no matter how many times I click it.
I have cleared the cache, cookies and history from the device, powered off and on the phone, switched between private browsing and back again and no change.
It had been working fine up until the update the other day.
Any suggestions on how to remedy this problem?

It's not just you. A whole host of people, including me, started having this issue today. I have a 3GS running 5.0.1. I have been reading or the couple hours and it seems it's a cross platform issue, not an iPhone issue. Seems to be something wrong with google mobile image search. Some are reporting success with switching from mobile to classic view in google.
Now I think we need to just wait on google to fix the issue.

Google Images not working in Safari on Iphone

Since a while back the "images"-tab in google does'nt work on the iPhone in any of the browsers I've tried. I've searched the net to find others with the same problem but with little luck. Here's a description of the problem.
For example I search for "dog" in google in the Safari browser, this works just fine.
Then I press the "images"-tab and get a thumbnail view with pictures of dogs, of course.
But this is where it all goes wrong, when touching one of the images I get an enlarged view of an image next to it. The "back to the results" and "full image" buttons dim out (without being touchable) and swiping does not work. I don't know what has caused this to stop working properly, I know its not the new iOS version though.
HERE is a youtube video I prepared that explains the problem.
First, is there anyone else out there with this problem?
Second, this is what I've tried:
- Other iPhone web browser applications, for example "Mercury", "Opera Mini", "Skyfire" and none of them works except "Dolphin" (good work).
- Resetting any of the settings in the phone, clearing cache and such have no effect.
- Resetting the iPhone totally, factory settings. No effect.
- Using someone elses iPhone. I've tried on an iPhone 4 and iPhone 3S, same problems (with iOS 5.01).
- Trying out all of the settings in google, no change.
- Setting the google view to "classic" instead of "mobile" works of course, but that makes the site look just like on a PC or Mac and is not what I'm after.
Third, this problem seems to just affect Swedish users from what I can tell. There would be thousands of posts about this if everyone in the world was affected by it, but so far I've seen no posts on this matter. But after searching a while I found a swedish forum site on the subject. Link (in swedish). Also, when visiting google from Sweden some form of script automatically changes the url from .com to .se. I don't know if this has something to do with it?
Anyone know what causes this problem and how It might be resolved?
Best Regard
Stefan, Sweden

Hi Stefan,
First; this must be the most thorough error discription I have ever seen. Impressive.
Second; yep for a couple of weeks now I've been having exactly the same problems as you describe. One other thing that I've noticed, is that for me, the 'word suggestion drop down list' or whatever it's name is, no longer works. More specificly:
I open Safari in my iPhone, surf to Google image search and type for example "dog" in the search field. Below the field, I now get a list of suggested words or phrases that I think is based on the most popular searches. For me, the first suggestion in this list is "dogo argentino" (a specific and popular breed of dogs). When I tap on the words "dogo argentino", the search field normally would switch input from "dog" to "dogo argentino" AND starts the image search automatically. However, since the problem showed up, when I tap on "dogo argentino" the input field is not affected (still reads "dog") and I would have to type "dogo argentino" manually and hit "search".
I use a Swedish iPhone 4S (5.0.1 (9A406)) in the Telenor network. I also have tested the same possible solutions that you describe in your post, but with no luck.
All the best,
Ingo

Google images not working

Is anyone else having issues with google images on iPhone 4 s? I can search and it will load up a page of images but I cannot bring up the full size pic or move to the next page. However google search is fine and if image results show in a web search I can access them fine

I'm having the exact same problem too. I can't even describe how unbelievably frustrating this is... I tried turning my phone off and on with no help. And based on things I've read, many have tried anything and everything but all in vain. I immediately sprung into action and tried what was mentioned above about clearing cookies/history but no luck Does anyone know a way around this at least for the tmie being until its fully resolved? This is a huge inconvience.. Apple or Google or anyone, you need to fix this ASAP!! Out of desperation I deleted the Google app the iPhone initially came with and re-dowloaded it..to my relief it worked ok BUT for only about a day or two cause it began to do the exact same thing. Also, i have the iPhone 4s like you and I've had this problem for about 2 to 3 weeks now
Sorry I couldnt be of help but I too wonder how many more people have this issue and most importantly what to do about it... either way good luck

HT4995 My location service on Google does not work and nothing is getting saved in my history bookmark

My location service on Google does not work. It will not bring up my location. Also nothing is getting saved in my history folder in my bookmark.

I have the same issue, I think. If I open Safari and search Walmart (google is my default search) it doesn't give me location results, and there is a little button at the top that says 'Use Precise Location.' If I tap that button nothing happens. Very frustrating. I've checked all my settings against my wife's iPhone, and my iPad, both of which work, and I can't find anything different.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
Thank you.

Youtube is not working on my Safari. I have an iPad 3 wifi. Help please!

Youtube videos are not working on my Safari browser. But can be played on the Youtube app. Any suggestions?

This is probably not a Flash-related issue. It's probably an iOS 7 issue. I have been waiting for Apple to fix this issue ever since iOS 7 came out in September: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23889006#23889006
Since then, I have come to realize it is a much broader issue with Safari in iOS 7 crashing constantly in general, no just with YouTube videos. Many of us have posted about this Safari issue now in several threads. It is a bug in iOS 7 that Apple needs to fix. There is no workaround for it.
YouTube videos embedded in websites do not require Flash to play. In previous versions of iOS, I was fully able to play YouTube videos in Safari on my iPad 2, iPhone 5, and older iPhones. Ever since iOS 7, YouTube videos now cause problems/crashes on some (but not all) websites. And Safari in general crashes on me multiple times per day, even on web pages with no video content at all. These problems continue on my new iPad Air.

$80 Apple in-ear headphones not working with iPhone 4

I spent $80 on a pair of in ear headphones and they do not work with iPhone 4. I can listen to music and talk but the volume controls are completely nonfunctional. So I used them on my friends 3GS and they work fine. How can Apple come out with a new phone that wont work with their own products? I used to love Apple until this F@#$ing iPhone 4 came out.

According to Apple, they should work with the 4... http://store.apple.com/us/product/MA850G/A?fnode=MTY1NDA1MA&mco=MTM3NTM0Mjg
Are they plugged in to your iPhone all the way?

Hand off not working on iPhone 5

hand off not working between iPhone and iPad Air.
Any suggestion. both using same iCloud ID's
thanks

Hi there SZkiyani,
You may need to verify that Bluetooth is enabled on the devices as well. Take a look at the aritlce below for more information.
Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity
Use Handoff with Apple apps such as Mail, Safari, Pages, Numbers, Keynote, Maps, Messages, Reminders, Calendar, Contacts. You can also use Handoff with some third-party apps. Start a document, email, or message on one device and pick up where you left off on another device.
To use Handoff:
On both devices, you'll need to turn on Bluetooth and sign in to the same iCloud account.
Use one of the apps listed above on one of your devices.

Google Mail not pushing on iPhone 4

Hello everyone,
I got my iPhone 4 last weekend and been setting it up since. Everything works just fine now, except for the push mail. I'm using a Google Mail Account that collects from my actual mail account because GMX does not provide free pushing. I've used this setup for half a year on my Windows Mobile phone, and it has always worked just fine, incoming mails were pushed within 10 seconds max.
But now I have to go into my inbox to get mails downloaded to my iPhone. I created the mail account on my iPhone using Add Account... - Google Mail. Fetch New Data" is set to "Push", and I don't see anything else I can about this in my iPhone settings.
Am I missing something or is this just not working on iPhone?
Thanks in advance and best regards,
Nate

Why are Links and forms not working in mobile safari?

Why do links and forms on the site I am designing not work in mobile safari? They work fine in desktop browsers.
The controls change state when focused, so it's not that they're being blocked, they simply don't activate. Behavior tested and observed on iPad running iOS 6.1.2 and iPhone running iOS 7.0.2.
Reference: http://gilli.co/test.html

I had the same problem but I just found a solution. Siri mistakenly suggests to enable reminders (which you should), but the setting that enables all these, is under System Services (on the bottom of the page) -> Location Based Alerts. I had deactivated it alleviate battery problems and had forgotten about it. Hope this helps!
