Having problems with Verizon iPhone 5 using excessive data. Verizon will not help can anyone give me advice? Have family plan never went over 8gb of data in 6 years, now avg 14 a month and are not using anything different other than having iPhone 5.

Switched to iPhone 5 on July 31st.  Since then our data usage has doubled.  Verizon will not help find out what the problem could be, they claim they are unaware of a problem.  I told them to look on the customer support page and many have complained about the problem.  Now on the apple site I see it may be an apple problem.  Some one needs to fix this.  Apple you want us to use your products, please do t make it cost us more money just to do what we did prior without problems.  Prior phones were iPhone 4 and we never had issues and never went over 8 gb's for 4 phones.  Now we are doing 14.  Can anyone tell me what is going on.  Getting ready to stop using cell phones all together.

Well you could Restore it from your backup and see if that helps. If it doesn't Restore it as new and manually add things back until the problem starts again.
I would also suggest trying a different SIM.
Without iOS 7 there is no way to isolate what is using the data.

    Buy the "AT&T" model iPad, not the Verizon one (which does not support SIM cards used most everywhere in the world).  The ATT model comes with a SIM card, but you can then get one from a UK provider.  Be sure it's a "microSIM" card, not the larger kind when back in the UK.

    It appears to depend upon the version you will be using:

    Based on what I can tell, you may have to go to the second hand market in order to get a MBP that will run a compatible OSX.

  • Acer Aspire E5-511. touchpad/mouse move cursor but will not open any programmes other than McAfee,

    Just purchased this laptop, initial thought it was a great improvement on my 3 year old Aspire!!!   Latest problem after doing a complete scan with McAfee is the touchpad or remote will move the cursor but will not open any programmes other than McAfee.   The Windows symbol (bottom left hand corner) does not light up when the cursor is over it and I am unable to use windows key + C to get charms bar.  For background I have been unable to install windows updates since I have had this computer, two days, hence doing a scan to look for reasons.

    Thanks for your suggestion Acer-Justin.   Sorted it by a switching off/reset using keyboard.   Sorted update problem using Microsoft who found a problem with update system then installed Windows 10 - all appears ok for now.

  • Can anyone give me advice on how to deal with a corrupted itunes movie rental?

    Can anyone give me advice on how to deal with a corrupted itunes movie rental? I tried to download a movie and have been continuously trying to download it through the "check for available downloads" option, but it will not download.

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not downloading properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • Had a problem with hijacked browsers. Got it cleaned, Firefox will not open or un install. I want to remove existing and install a "clean" one.

    Browsers were hijacked, found and quaranteened(sp?) the bugs, Mozilla will not open from the desktop, Programs. Tried to un-install either one-no joy. Want to use Firefox again, thought I could uninstall and reinstall "Clean" versions. If nothing else, since I can't use Mozilla, want to remove them permanently.

  • New WIN7 System, FFox gives error "Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory" - will not go to any site.

    New Windows 7 computer. After installing Firefox, every time I bring it up I get the following message:
    "Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features."
    Then Firefox comes up, but will not function at all - can enter url address, but will not respond to ANY clicks, so can not go to any site.

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.
    - Apple will do nothing without a court order

    My Mac OS X 10.4.8 wireless mouse will not scroll UP.  It's been cleaned and works well in all other aspects.  Is it just time to get another one, or can this problem be fixed?

    I used iPad forum because the only other choice was iMac..... there is no forum for the Mouse.  Suggestions as to where I can go?
    Thanks

  • I am getting sick of trying to find a specific area to solve a problem with version 4. If this continues I will not continue with FIREFOX!!!!

    I updated to version 4 and Roboform which worked fine with the previous version which is unknown to me. I have lost things which I used to use and don't know how to access them, I can't say what they were but when I want them that will become apparent. One thing I can bring to mind is my virus protection indicator which was below the main taskbar and should appear automatically.

    If you are using the '''Full RoboForm Toolbar''', install the Roboform adapter for '''Firefox 3.0 - 4 beta X''' from here: <br />
    http://www.roboform.com/firefox.html
    Scroll down that page, you want the one shown under: <br /> '''Additional Full RoboForm Toolbar Information''' <br />
    '''RoboForm Installer Installs Adapter Automatically into Firefox''' <br />
    Or, you can install it from this link: <br />
    http://www.roboform.com/dist/roboform-firefox-3-4-frozen.xpi
    As far as the '''virus protection indicator''', without the exact name of that security tool all I can do is to recommend that you contact the developer of that toolbar extension to see of they have an updated version available for Firefox 4.0.

  • Problem with the 10.5.2 update... will not install

    After downloading the updatesoftware from the apple downloadcenter I get the normal option of restarting my mac and install the new update. I press restart, and the computer goes in to a configuring installation modus. Here it stops. The progress bar does not move, its just locked. I let my computer stay like for 3 hours, but nothing happend. In the end, even though i know its wrong wrong wrong, I had to force restart my mac.
    Anybody know what can be done to fix this problem?

    I have exactly the same problem - also - the other two people who are traveling with me have the same problem - so it is not just you. All three of us were wondering what's going on last night - unfortunately we are in the Philippines at the moment and I haven't tried to call AppleCare yet.
    I also made an attempt at repairing disk permissions - no luck with that either - disk utility hangs as well just like the installer.......
