Have others noticed accuracy of gps in iPhone degrade with ios5.01?

Since I upgraded my iPhone 4 with ios5.01 the gps function in things like map it seems much worse. It used to be very good before upgrade.  It says to turn on wifi to improve accuracy but that is of no use when in car.  I like others have also seen battery life degrade and I have seen fixes for that but any thoughts on the gps accuracy?  Thanks,

You need to transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer per the instructions included with this link.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751
If you don't do this per the instructions included with the link, all iTunes content on your iPhone will be erased with the first sync. If you haven't transferred photos from your old computer to your new, any photos on your iPhone that were transferred from your previous computer will be erased when selecting to transfer any photos from your new computer.
Not sure how cancelling a sync with iTunes and importing photos/videos from the Camera Roll with iPhoto could have an effect on your GPS reception and location services.

  • How do I transfer music off my iphone onto itunes on a new mac. I don't have the laptop I originally synced my iphone up with any more, so how can I do this without it?

    How do I transfer music off my iphone onto itunes on a new mac. I don't have the laptop I originally synced my iphone up with any more, so how can I do this without it?
    I have tried to do this through home sharing but as I don't have the old laptop it wont let me.
    Any HELP please?!?
    Would be much appreciated.

    The iphone is not a backup/storage device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
    Have you failed to do this?

    First of all, there is only 1 picture in my Camera Roll, why does it say 3?
    This is a known issue that third party software like phoneview can fix.
    Second, is there any way to remove the "Photo Library" from the Albums, or is that something we have to keep?
    No. Your photos are not actually duplicated, this is just a pointer to the photos in the various albums you have synced.
    If it's something we must keep, can we at least change the icon next to it so it's not the flower?
    No.

  • IPhone 4 with iOS5 connects to win 7 wifi but not to the internet

    Hi guys,
    I know a lot has been said about this and many different solutions have been given but none of them work for me so please bear with me.
    I can use my iPhone 4 with iOS5 to connect to my win7 laptop through wifi but I can't connect to the internet on the iPhone.  However, I can use my laptop to tap on my iPhone's 3G and surf.  Does anyone know why is this the case?
    I checked the IP address and DNS and Router and they are all fine.  They tally and they are not 169.  I even reset my network settings twice and still no go.
    The apps on the iPhone that require wifi connection work fine too.  I just cannot get the iPhone to connect to the internet when I'm on my laptop's wifi.
    I used to be able to on my old laptop.  But that got smashed in an accident and even though this new one is the same make and model, I just can't seem to replicate it on the new one.
    Can someone please enlighten me?
    Thanks.

  • Using iPhone 4s with IOS5 and my Music icon has disappeared.  How do I get it back?  Please.

    It should be in your applications folder.  Locate it; click and hold onto it then drag it back to where it was.

  • Can i update my iphone 3g with IOS5...?

    No. iOS 4.2.1 is the end of the line for your phone.

  • Can the iPhone 4 with iOS5, have more than one custom voicemail greeting?

    Is it possible to put more than one custom greeting on the iPhone 4 with iOS 5?  I sometimes would like certain people to know where I am or what I'm doing so they may take the opportunity to join me without me answering the phone each time it rings when I'm hosting a seminar or teaching a class. I would like to record a couple of responses that I could pick from, but don't know if that is possible.  Thanks!

    iPhone and carriers do not natively support this. You have to use a third party application from the App Store to take advantage of this feature, which is possible via an application such as YouMail. It's free in the app store. I'm sure there are others like that available as well.

  • IPhone 4 with iOS5; Changes in iTunes to music not reflected on iPhone.

    It's really odd.  I plug in my iPhone, open iTunes, make changes to playlists (add or delete, etc.) and add or delete actual songs to my iPhone (via iTunes), etc., but none of this gets reflected on my iPhone when I unplug from computer and open the Music app.  When I open the Music app, all the old playlists and songs are still there.  But when I plug the iPhone back into my computer and open iTunes and click on my device, all the changes are reflected (on iTunes after clicking on my device).  I push Sync and let the phone Sync but it still does not reflect any of the changes when I unplug.  What is even crazier is I go back to the iPhone and I can still click on songs to play them, even after I have deleted them through iTunes on my iPhone, and they no longer show up on my device through iTunes.  Anyone have any suggestions?
    This never happened prior to upgrade to iOS5 or backing up to iCloud.

    I am just updating as I was finally able to get this to work.  I went back and synced two more times with iTunes.  The first time still did not make any changes to my iPhone.  The second time, the sync hung (at least an hour later it was still syncing on step 5 of 5), but I "ejected" anyway.  And this time the changes were reflected in my iPhone.  I don't know why the first two Syncs did not make the changes, even though they Synced without issue.

  • Iphone 3gs with ios5 update. bluetooth connection with car problem.

    I updated my iphone 3GS to IOS5. After the update, the bluetooth (handsfree) connection to my car (Lexus RX350) does not work anymore. I can connect  any other cell phone bluetooth to my car. Only iphone after the IOS5 update is failing. Any suggestions (I reset many times)?

    Some people havent had one problem when updating to iOS4, others have been over run with problems. I myself have lost virtually all sound from my loud speaker so calls, txt messages and ipod are virtually unheard now..
    Went to my local Genius bar in Liverpool today, complete waste of time, the guy restored it like I hadnt already done that a 100 times, then said oh yeah it is qeit not heard of that one before, to get a new one will cost you £139!!
    Yeah right mate, not payin that as its not my fault! did ask him if he ever looks on the Apple forum about faults people are having, and I got a blank look. Told him a thread with tens of thousands people all having the same problem with low sound from the speakers and calls being ended in mid conversation since updating to OS4 seems a bit strange then... another blank look!
    Ive lost all faith with apple as a company now and will not be upgrading to a iPhone 4 anytime soon or any apple product, no one seems interested in helping but quick enough to take your money, thats my opinion anyway..

  • IPhone 4 with ios5 doesn't play ringtones from apps

    I have my iPhone4 since one week and updatet software to ios 5... and now all apps which include ringtones doesn't work. does the apps doesn't work with ios5 yet or what's the problem?? please help, because i'm very very angry about apple, after ONE WEEK

    I have a pretty similar problem. My iPhone 4S was last night updated to iOS6 then I tried to update some of my apps, but my app store says as following: Account not in this store. Your account is not valid in the U.S. store. You must switch to the Finnish store before purchasing.
    Ok. How do I switch it?
    These are old apps I've allready bought in the finnish store and now all prices in my app store is in dollars...
    How do I get my apps in order?

  • Loss of sound during calls following updating iphone 4 with IOS5

    I've recently updated my Iphone 4 with the IOS5 update.  Since then I've had terrible problems with loss of sound on phonecalls.  I can hear others but they cant hear me  - loss of sound is patchy during a call.  I've cleaned mic with a soft brush and rebooted but problem still exists.  Any ideas before I restore factory settings/ and or take back to the shop?

    I have a Iphone 4 and when i try to make calls, i cannot hear anything unless i put it on speaker, and sometimes if i try to turn the call volume up during a call without the speaker it almost sounds like the speaker is blown out. I just bought this phone online 2 days ago so i don't understand how that could happen.
    Is anyone having this problem? I'm am totally lost with what to do other than return the phone in and see if i can get another one?
    Please help!!!!!

  • Iphone 4 with ios5 audiobook speed

    I have an iPhone 4 and the speed on my audiobooks is very fast. I have looked for away to slow them down but I have nothing that will help me slow down the speed. I have uninstalled reinstalled them and turned the phone on and off and there is also nothing in my settings to change the speed. I have tried several things, any help would be appreciated!!

    Same problem.  iPad2 with iOS5, Windows 7 Pro 64b, Outlook 2010. I just want to sync the Contacts folder, but it doesn't appear in iTunes.  All the other contact folders show up perfectly.
    The workaround I managed was to create a "Backup Contacts", copy all the contacts in the primary folder to it and sync.  Cumbersome procedure, because any changes have to be made in Outlook and then copied to the backup folder.
    I tried syncing through iCloud, and it *****. Unusable with Outlook.
    Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

  • Anyone else notice poor WiFi performance on iPhone 4 after IOS5 update? I have two iPhone 4 at home, slow slow downloads. One of them I've tested WiFi at work, Same issue. e.g. Apps take forever to download over WiFi compared to a AT

    I have two iPhone 4 at home, slow slow downloads. One of them I've tested WiFi at work, Same issue. e.g. Apps take forever to download over WiFi compared to a AT&T-3G connection.

    I have only just got an iphone 4 which I immediately updated to ios7 so have nothing to compare it with. But it doesn't even see networks that come up clear on the macbook. Same thing for a colleague in the same spot. previously I had an android phone which picked up just fine.

  • I have no Control Centre on ipad or iphone, both with IOS 7.0.4.  Really weird!

    Ipad and iphone are both synched but have no Control Centre at all.  Apparently, it should come up by double clicking and left swiping or just up-swiping from any screen.  Both options are enabled in Control Centre preferences - that does show up ins ettings but there does not seem to be any way to access the control centre at all.  Very strange, have tried resetting both devices to no avail.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks. phil.

    Thanks - that fixed it.  I was just putting my finger on the screen then swiping up which didn't work.
    Many thanks.
