Hi upgraded my iphone 5 and now two of my apps keep crashing when I press on them it just goes back to the home screen one is Facebook and the other is my fitbit app.

Hi upgraded my iphone 5 to ios7.1 and now my Facebook and fitbit app won't work it just keeps going back to front screen and suggestions on how I can fix this if so please put answer in simple words. Thanks

Hello Glenys,
It sounds like you have 2 apps that are not working as expected. I recommend the steps from the following article named:
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
These steps will get you started but therea are more if needed:
Restart the app
Close the app and open it again.
Restart your device
Turn the device off and on.
Update your device software and your apps
Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
Update your apps:
Open the App Store and tap Updates.
If updates are available, tap Update All.
If asked, enter your Apple ID password. The updates will download and install.
You might need a Wi-Fi connection to update some apps.
Install another app from the App Store
If your installed app won't open, download and install a free app that isn't on your iOS device. This should reset your Apple ID authorization.
Remember to use the same Apple ID that you used to download the app that you're having issues with.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

My imessage will only open to my latest message and won't show previous conversations. Every time I hit message to go back and view previous conversations it just goes back to my home screen.

any advice?

I suspect you have a received a hack message via iMessage. I have been receiving this type of message for the past week. Once this hack message hit my phone, I will not be able to open the Message app again or it will go back to the home screen as soon as I open the app. You can still open existing conversation by going into 'Contact' and then try send a message to a contact with an existing conversation. Any attempt to start a new conversation via Contact will close the app and return to the Home screen.
So far my only way to deal with this is to turn off iMessage and survive on SMS text until Apple comes up with a fix to block this type of hack.
Sorry I can't be much help.

UDPATE:
Spoke with Express lane, and issue was escalated. Kudos to the support guys that handled this one (Brian and Yi). Went through everything in detail and took all the crash dumps off the iphones and ipads to send to engineering.
After backing up the contacts, the recommendation was to delete all contacts in iCloud. Doing that caused my iCloud to crash (in the browser), so more crash dumps were sent to apple.
Eventually got all contacts deleted, then did a resync. Looks like IOS devices are coming back to life and syncing again.
Also, Outlook iCloud connector has just been updated to ver 1.0.1 so i installed that on their recommendation.
BOTTOM LINE workaround:
1. Backup contacts
2. Delete contacts in iCloud
3. Delete accounts on IOS devices
4. Recreate accounts on IOS devices.
Hoping a real root cause can be found and real fix implemented. This has caused me to doubt the stability of iCloud, so i will procees with caution.

I know this isn't really the right place to ask, but could someone explain why when I open Portal 2, that I got off steam and spent a whole day downloading, keeps crashing when I click the Campaign/Single Player mode. It Freezes and then crashes. Help!

Uhm, why don't you go to the right place, then? There are several Steam/Portal forums out there...

When you jar or drop a hard drive when it's operating the heads strike the platters and ruin sectors and the data on them.
Your getting the spinning wheel because the OS has been damaged and/or quite possibly the drive.
You'll first have to determine if it's a hardware issue
Do #3 Hardware Test and #5 Disk Utlity Repair Disk/Permissions here (check the SMART status)
Step by Step to fix your Mac
If the drive is fine and you don't have a recent copy of your data off the machine then also do this
Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
Then proceed with fixing the damaged software, likley by #8 your problem will be fixed.

What happened to the home screen button from 1st gen iPad? Can't close apps.

I received a 1st generation iPad as a regift. It worked fine until I erased and synced it with my iTunes and other devices. Instead of the home button, it had that little circle in the corner to get you back to the home screen (don't know what that's called). Now that I've synced, that circle/button is gone, and the home button doesn't take me home. I am stuck in whatever app or settings screen I open, and can't close it without a full reboot. I'm not sure what ios it was using before I reset amd synced, but now it is using 5.1.1. Is this the problem? Any fixes?

If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless... Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

My iPad keeps reverting to the home screen, both from Safari and Mail. ???

My iPad keeps reverting to the home screen from Safari and Mail. ???

Have you tried closing the two apps completely ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Safari or Mail 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari and Mail apps to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I can't play music on my iPad, every time I click the music icon, the screen goes blank and goes back to my home screen...how can I fix this?

I cant play music on my iPad? The music icon does not work...

Quit the music app completely and try it again. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Try the app again.
Or ....
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

My ipod touch is stuck on the home screen, will not respond. Displays a gray background with the ipod logo, sliders are unresponsive. Bottom slider displays many different languages, none of them english. Maybe a virus or malware?? Restoring with itunes does not work, neither does holding down the home/sleep buttons to reset.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Iphone 4 stock apps keeps crashing when opened/

Hi everyone,
I have an Iphone 4g, and the stock apps like weather, calculator, safari, mail keep crashing as soon as I open them, and they do appear in the recent apps panel.
I've formatted (restored) it several times and it's the same.
version: 7.1.2.
Thanks,

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.
Also, if you restored from back up, you may want to try doing so as a new device (without backup).

Last time I wrote there was a problem with not being able to get the bottom of the screens in New York tiers.
After months of not being able to finish New York, the bottoms of the tiers allowed me to finish out that level.
Made it through Cuba just fine.
Then into Moscow, the same thing that was happening in New York is repeating in Moscow, but not in every tier.

Screen shots would be too numerous to try and load into this message. Too large a file.

I am having the same problem with Treasure Island and PetVille. When I click on the "Play" tab on both of them, I get a blank blue screen; however, I have no problem playing any other games like Sorority Life. So why is the new version of Firefox having an issue supporting Zynga games and Internet Explorer isn't? Would reinstalling an older version of Firefox fix it, and where can you get an older version to download?

TS5306 App keeps crashing when I go to pay

iPhoto keeps closing down ever time I go to pay for my photo book

Hello Blueray32,
It sounds like you are trying to enter your payment information and the application keeps quitting unexpectedly.
I would try first, closing all the open apps on the phone.
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the phone and try again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

All the best,
