How do i enable locations services, after originally not allowing?

how do i enable locations services, after originally not allowing?

You have to go enable it under RESTRICTIONS first if you chose against it to begin with.... then you can alter it in the other places... So go to restrictions first, enable it, then you can go to the other places... like the icloud menu > share my location > enable it to share where you are.... or Privacy > Location Services > On.
I think a big problem is you might have it on in one place and then not others and there are different menus for different places instead of just ONE place to enable any and all location settings.  That is what Apple does badly, they have too many settings split up between different menus.... its confusing.

  • HT5594 After updating to iOS7 on my iPhone4 I cannot enable location services. How do I enable location services? I have tried turning off restrictions but that did not work.

    After updating to iOS7 on my iPhone 4 I cannot enable location services. How do I enable location services? I have tried turning off restrictions but that did not work.

    I finally just resolved this after not being able to enable location services since upagrading to iOS 7. Posting the solution here 'cause I couldn't find it anywhere else.
    I enabled Restrictions under Settings > General > Restrictions and created a passcode (I'm not sure if this was part of the solution, but it wasn't enabled for me by default.)
    In Restrictions, under Privacy, Location Services was set to "Allow Changes" (This still didn't solve the issue of the greyed-out Location Services switch though - I still couldn't turn it on.)
    Also in Restrictions, I also switched "Find My Friends" to "Allow Changes"
    Once I did step 3, the switch under Settings > Privacy > Location Services was no longer greyed out and could be switched on.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do I enable Location Services on my ethernet-only MacPro?

    My MacPro only has an ethernet adapter, which is connected to my AEBS.  I would like to "trick" my MacPro into using Location Services and setting the time zone automatically using the current location.  These options are not available because my MacPro does not have a WiFi adapter.
    Is there a way to force Lion to turn-on these services in a way that is like to forcing it to enable AirDrop (defaults write com.apple.NetworkBrowser BrowseAllInterfaces 1)?  Is there some plist file that I can modify?

    There is no way it is going to work as the WiFi signal must be registered in a database of known SSID/Location information. The location service has to "sniff" the local WiFi signals and see if they are in the database, then set your location based on what it sees. Without a WiFi card, it has nothing to "sniff." As far as I can tell, there is nothing in the base station firmware that would perform that trick and send the information out to the wired connections.
    How often do you move your Mac Pro around between different time zones?

    Try:

    - 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 another cable       
    - 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.

  • I can't get paddy power app to open after enabling location services?

    i have reinstalled twice. keeps telling me to enable location services. have done several times and restarted. also cleared cache. same problem with betfair app. ipad 3 and latest iOS.

    Sounds like a Codesign issue.  From terminal, type:
    codesign -vvv /Applications/iTunes.app/
    You should see:
    /Applications/iTunes.app/:  valid on disk
    /Applications/iTunes.app/: satisfies its Designated Requirment
    But if you see:
    /Applications/iTunes.app/:  a sealed resourse is missing or invalid
    [lists reources]
    You can either delete the offending resouces (risky) or try redownloading and reinstalling the latest iTunes.dmg from Apple.   Try the reinstall first.

  • Left my phone in the movie theatre..what do I do? how do i contact location services?

    I just left my phone in the movies...and now they are closed!  how do I contact location services to make sure it is still there?

    If you were running iOS 5 or higher, had enabled iCloud and Find My iPhone before losing it, you can go to icloud.com on your computer and try to locate it as outlined here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfc0f2442.  If it's turned on, still has Find My iPhone enabled, and has a connection to the internet, it should appear on the map.
    If you didn't enable Find My iPhone before losing it you won't be able to locate it.

    To remove the Restrictions passcode you will need to either...
    1)  Restore the Device as New...
    See Sections 5 and 6 here...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    OR...
    2)  From a Backup created Before the Restrictions Code was set....

  • How do i use location service to ind my iphone?

    how do i use location service to find my lost iphone?

    Silica Gel usually comes in a porous bag within a perforated box. Put the bag and the phone in a ziplock bag together. If you buy loose silica gel just put it in the plastic bag, then put the phone on top of it. Try not to get the grains of silica gel in the openings on the phone, as it will be hard to get out.

    Try this first - Reset 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.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • HT4623 I can't activate Location Services after installing ios& on Iphone 5.... any ideas?

    I can't activate Location Services after installing ios& on Iphone 5.... any ideas?

    I had the same issue with one of the three iPhones I updated on Wednesday.  There are many processes that are working for people including:
    - Resetting the device several times
    - Toggling the "Dont' Allow Changes" setting under "Restrictions --> Location Services"
    - Disabling Restrictions altogether.
    - Restoring from backup
    I was able to restore location services by selecting "Reset" and choosing "Erase All Content and Settings" to set the phone up as new.  When the phone resets and goes through the setup process, I was given the option to turn on location services.  I then restored from backup and was good to go.
    Some people have been able to resolve the issue by resetting but only using "Reset All Settings" without having to erase all content, but that did not work for me.  It took a while to get everything back to normal, but it is good to know that there was a somewhat simple solution.
