How can iOS5 be a software bug and only effect some iPhones?

How can IOS 5 be a software bug and not effect every device running that firmware? Could it be a hardware issue? Has anyone noticed in Settings>About>Diagnostics there are loads more logs about crashing/low memory/ and many others since IOS5?

It probably has something to do with settings.  I haven't had any battery drain issue on my 4S (which started out with settings I restored from a backup of my iPhone 3G), but I had extremely rapid drain on my iPad 1 when I upgraded to iOS 5.  I figured out quite quickly that it was the auto time zone support, and turning it off made things basically perfect again.  I suspect it might be because I was previously using iOS4 on the iPad, and some setting or something was creating the problem, which was absent on the iPhone. 
Of course, that's pure speculation— if Apple has it figured out, they could choose to transparently explain what exactly the bug was (though I suspect we won't get any details like that)

  • How can I back up my files and photos on my iPhone to my iMac?

    How can I back up my files and photos on my iPhone to my iMac?

    You can back up the iPhone to your Mac with iTunes.
    Make sure, your iTunes version is up to date. Connect your iPhone to an USB port and launch iTunes.
    See this document: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    If you want a separate folder with your photos, download the camera roll contents by connecting the iPhone to USB. You emac will see it as camera and you can download the photos using Image Capture to a folder on your Mac, or using iPhoto or Aperture to your photo library.

    Hello, how can i get my photos,videos,and contacts of my iphone transfer to my pc. As i have lost my iphone 4

    If you don't have your iPhone anymore, you can't access the data on it remotely.
    However, if you are syncing to iCloud, you can set up iCloud syncing on your computer and at least get your contact info.
    iCloud: Set up iCloud on your devices
    You might also think about putting your device in lost mode or erasing it:
    What steps should I take if I misplace my device?
    If you ever misplace your device—whether it’s just lost or you think it may have been stolen—you should put it into Lost Mode immediately using Find My iPhone.
    Lost Mode locks your screen with a four-digit passcode and lets you display a custom message with your phone number to help you get it back. You can also remotely erase your device if needed, and your custom message will continue to display even after the device is erased.
    While Activation Lock works in the background to make it more difficult for someone to use or sell your missing device, Lost Mode clearly indicates to anyone who finds your device that it still belongs to you and can’t be reactivated without your password.
    To put a device into Lost Mode, sign in to icloud.com/find from a Mac or PC or use the Find My iPhone iOS app.
    For more information, read what to do if your device is lost or stolen.

  • Hi i just buy a macbook how can i transfer all my musics and apps from my iphone to my new itune?

    hi i just buy a macbook how can i transfer all my musics and apps from my iphone to my new itune?

    1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.

  • How can i sync all my music and playlists from my iphone to my new computer

    how can i sync all my music and playlists from my iphone to my new computer

    Yes.  You can sync everything that is currently on your iPod Touch to your newer one. Just plug it in and sync it like you did with the old one.
    If you want to retain your App data, see this article for information on backing up your current iPod Touch and restoring the backup onto a new one.

    If you purchase the iPad, keep in mind that some Apps may not be compatible with it.

  • How can I burn dvds of videos and pictures on my iphone?

    I have a PC and would like to find out how I can burn a cd with video and pictures taken with my iPhone.  Also, will the video be in HD on the disc that I create?  Thanks!

    You will need to have those files available for the process on your computer because this is a task which cannot be accomplished from the iPhone. You will need a disk burning utility on your computer (Roxio's software comes to mind as a possibility). The quality of the output is entirely dependent upon the nature of the original files and the capabilities of the software application. They can be written as a data disk or, in the case of the video, written as a movie so long as it is an unprotected file (from your own capture, for example). This entire operation has to be worked through on your computer. There is a minimal degree to which you can edit your captured video in the iPhone (3GS or 4) but it does not compare to the scope that would be available to you in a proper editing application on the computer.

  • How can I disable "Fingerprint Software" for programs only?

    Hi,
    somehow, the "Fingerprint Software" require from user to swipe a finger anytime he open programs that require from user to insert "user and password."
    How can I disable it permanently just for program and not for log-on?
    Thanks.

    I would have thought (hoped) this would do the job. In my case with the Truesuite Access manager software General Settings configured with the Replace Windows password logon with fingerprint logon checkbox unticked the fingerprint access logon appears whenever I go to a browser login that requires a user name and password to be specified. I have made the change to the General Settings and rebooted the computer and logged on by typing in my logon credentials. I have wiped out all the internet settings in the browser. Yet every time I visit this browser page to login the fingerprint access dialog pops up to infuriate me.
    Some postings on the internet suggest this fingerprint access is too much hassle to bother with and I am starting to believe it.

  • How can I transfer apps like 'Pages' and 'Numbers' to my iPhone from my MacBook?

    I've been trying to transfer Pages, Numbers and Keynote to my iPhone to save myself the trouble of taking my whole laptop to College with me every day but I don't know how and I'm wondering if I am going to have to buy them from the app store on my phone. I had no problem transfering the apps from my iMac to my MacBook Pro using Bluetooth but my computer and phone don't seem to be having any of that.

    OS X apps can't run on an iOS device, and iOS apps can't run on a Mac or PC.
    You need to purchase these apps from the app store which are written/optimized for iOS devices.

  • How can I backup all my apps and contains in my iPhone to iCloud?

    I was trying to backup my iPhone to iCloud through my laptop. It was backing-up normally at first, but then, it stopped for a sudden. I retried again but its not been backup. I tried again for a several times and I did check my iCloud storage and it's nothing. It only appeared "Your iPhone has never been backed up to iCloud". I checked all my iPhone setting and as well as my laptop; it's all fine, nothing is wrong with it. But I just can't backup my iPhone to the iCloud.

    Check the apps and features below the settings > iCloud
    features that are activated on this list, they will be backed-up.

  • HT201441 How can i change the e-mail and password for the iphone

    Hi there,
    I bought my iphone as a 2nd hand from someone i dont know his adress.Then i made an update to the iphone and its says that i have to write the previous e-mail and the password which i dont know any of them and i couldnt find that person now.
    So please if you can help me, what should i do in this case? Becouse the iphone at this moment is useless.
    Best Regards

    No, there is no solution - search these forums if you like for similar posts.  Without knowing the registered owners password there is no way to disable Activation Lock.  Apple will not give you that password, nor reset it for you, nor give you any personal information about the registered owner.
    If you cannot contact that original owner, or they refuse to help you, then you now own a brick.  If you can, go back to the seller and get your money back.  It is reasonably likely though, that they did not actually own the device to sell it in the first place.

  • I need OS  Lion to make my computer run, but I dont have it in my apple acount, and the computer just ask me for that, how can I install hte software if the only way is using apple id?

    I need OS lion, to run my the computer, I made a restore trying to install mountain lion, but the computer doesnt allow me, it ask me for the OS LION, and I dont have it in my apple account, how to I install it? Help!!!!

    So it sounds as though you wiped your drive and it can't find the system (OS startup) folder because there is none (folder with ?).
    One more question: did your machine come with Lion?? Or did you purchase it at the app store? If it came with the machine, then it would not show in the app store.
    You tried recovery and said it "made an internet recovery" - when you booted up with Command + R, did you at first see a spinning globe? If not, there was no internet recovery. Try restarting with Command + Option + R - on older machines, that is internet recovery (if your machine supports it). You should wind up with a screen like this:
    Is this what you saw before? You can erase your drive in Disk Utility. When done, you need to click on Reinstall OS X - it will then go to Apple's servers and download the entire OS. Once downloaded (may take a while unless you have a blazing connection), it will install. It should also recreate a new recovery partition.

  • How can I transfer Android ringtones, alerts and messages to my iPhone 5c?

    I just got a new iPhone 5c and I want to be able to use my Android ringtones, messages and alerts on it. How do I transfer them in iTunes?  It did transfer the ones that are actually music but not the others, the main ones I use.
    Also is there an app that will announce who is actually calling you, by name? or sending a message?  Like "new message from Chelsea"?  "Call from Zac"?  I got used to hearing these that I am missing it on the new phone.
    I do have an iPad mini so I'm not an extreme newbie but I never had my messages come through on it.
    Thanks for any help you can give me.

  • How can I restore all my apps and pictures on my iPhone from iCloud?

    I recently lost my iphone and got a new one. Can anybody help me how to retrieve all my apps and pictures from my old iPhone to my new one. I backed it up on iCloud. Thank you!
    Edited: I backed it up and I only retrieved my contacts and music playlist.

    Backing up does not restore anything, it simply makes a backup of the content on the device.
    I suspect you intended that you synced the device as this would put contacts and media from iTunes back on the device.
