HT1688 Traveling in Europe and iphone 5 has NO SERVICE. I have had other iPhones and other cell phones in the past and never had this problem

I am traveling in Europe and for the first time in over 10 years I am not able to use my cell phone. This is my third iPhone and I have never had any trouble in the past in connecting as soon as off the plane!!!! I have tried everything to fix it. Chatted with AT&T and couldn't help me either. Resetted settings, network settings, turned off and rebooted at least ten times. Removed Sim card and still NOTHING. NO SERVICE and SEARCHING is all I can get.

Tracy, first you should restart the iPhone by holding down the on/off and the home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo. This process could solve some of your problems. Also make sure you have the latest update, go into our settings>general>software update. On the wifi issue try restarting your router, if you are still having problems try resetting your network settings, go into your settings>general>reset then tap reset network settings.
The battery issues seems normal, the battery will not last 24 hours.

Take it in to an Apple store or authorized service center for evaluation and possible replacement.

I was charging my iPad2 and when reaching 90% it just went black and can't be started again. Anyone that have had this problem and know what to do?

I have had this problem several times. The iPad comes off charging with a black screen and only a hard reset works to get it back. Then you have to go to settings to be sure nothing changed there.
I have had serveral hard resets and three restore operations and the problem recurs. I am not sure if it is the iPad2 or an app that is causing the problem. So far I can live with it as is.

My wife and I both upgraded our cell phones will att from iPhone 5 to iPhone 6. since then everything has worked great except for making phone calls to other cell phones. the phone acts like it connects and the call timer starts but there is no sou

unable make phone call with brand new iPhone 6

Try a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release then wait for the phone to boot back up.
then try again.

Hello All, I have a Model - MacBook Pro Laptop and the screen recently turned grey giving me zero visibility or access to the computer. Has anyone else seen or had this problem? Is it fixable or should I get a new unit?

Hello all,
I have a Model - MacBook Pro Laptop and the screen recently turned the colour grey, giving me no visibility or access to the unit.
Has anyone had or seen this problem before? Can it be fixed? I had a repair guy from my local Mac Store take a look at it - he said I needed a whole new screen and top of the computer, but this didn't fix the problem. I took the unit home unrepaired, and a week later it was all of a sudden working fine.
What is happening with my Laptop? Once this happens (grey screen) does it mean that it's going to become a chronic problem?
Please advise....Thanks

It's kind of difficult to diagnosis your problem without a visual clue, because there is a (mostly) software based "gray screen" at boot issue.
But if you got the screen replaced, took it home and now it works, why the repair shop didn't get it working before it left the store is beyond me.
Unless the repair shop is a authorized apple reseller/repair, I wouldn't have taken it to them, and of you did, they should have fixed the issue right away.

My screen saver has become to large for the screen. i have had this problem before and just reset the ipad. This time it hasnt worked

i have a 3yr old ipad. it is ios8. the newest operating system. my problem is the screen saver will not downsize. it is to big for the screen. i have used my fingers to pinch the screen smaller but it douesnt work. in the past if i shut it off and press the bottom centre button it resets the ipad. that isnt working now.

I just did that and everything looked ok. I do notice however when I open up my calendar off to the left hand side where all the calendars are listed there is a triangle with a exclamation mark in the middle of it. When I clicked on it a window, just like the one that has been popping up, opens and it gives the same message. "server resoponded with an error" and it lists a various event and gives the choice to go offline, or revert to server. I have to choose go offline in order to get the window to close. Any idea what is happening?

Why does my 5th gen airport extreme go on the fritz and disconnect all 2.4GHz devices when one device connects with 5GHz? I've done some research and it seems other people have had this problem too? I'm very frustrated and want my money back

Running an apple tv 3rd gen, iPod 4th gen, iPhone 4s, windows vista laptop, and Xbox 360 with media center. 2.4GHz devices work great when apple TV is connected with ethernet, but as soon as I switch the apple tv to wireless, the 5th gen AEBS kicks over to 5GHz, my 2.4GHz devices lose connection and I can't reconnect my 2.4GHz devices, until I do a hard reset of my AEBS and reconfig the network with my iPhone, if I use the airport application for PC, my wireless devices still won't connect. I bought this router 20 days ago so I could run dual band wireless, if I wanted to limit all my stuff to 2.4ghz, I would've got a g router and saved some money. This thing supposedly has 3 antennas, one for 2.4, one for 5, and one for the guest network, so why do I loose my 2.4 when it "switches" to 5GHZ if it's supposedly always broadcasting both freq's????????

I had a problem with dual bands running almost everything you have there. When I'd have a iPad and MacBook running, I'd turn on my 360 and I'd loose all connections though. Until a hard reset and the same cycle. I returned my airport a day later for a new one. No problems since. I had a faulty one. Not saying yours is, but mine was. I troubleshooted everything from options, manual setup, everythinggggggggg. It was a wasted 7plus hours to find out it was faulty. I have a pc, MacBook, apple tv, 360, and 2 iPads using it now flawless.

I'm having trouble syncing my Iphone to my MacBook Air. First time I have had this problem.

This is the first time I am having a problem syncing my IPhone with my MacBook Air. It has always worked in the past but dates/times I have input into my phone will not transfer to my MacBook??

My contacts are all on my iMac, but the iPhone5c won't sync w it or iCloud. I only get a partial list. I have no idea where the partial list is coming from. The old iPhone had all of my contacts.

Hi Gammer576775!
Here is an article that will help you troubleshoot this issue with your iPod touch:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2771
Will not power on, or will not turn on unless connected to power
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Connect the iPod touch to an Apple USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if the display turns on and…
The home screen appears, the device should be working. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen: . Then disconnect the device from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears even after the iPod touch has charged for at least 20 minutes: See the "iPod touch displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or low-battery image appears , continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPod touch did not turn on, reset it while connected to an Apple USB power adapter. If the display turns on, go to step 4.If the display remains black, go to the next step.
Restore the device. Connect it to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes it and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPod touch. If the device doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring it, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPod touch resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring it did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

I am having tremendous difficulty sending simple voice text messages, or typed text messages to non I-phone users. Picture text messages will not send at all and can only be sent to other i-phone users. Is anyone else haing this problem ?? Big concern

Well this is stupid - I wrote the question above and now it is telling me the message is blank - how dumb is this.
I am having tremendous difficulty sending sipmle typed texts, voice texts and picture text messages to non I- phone users.
Simple text messages are sporadic and seem to be impacted by whether I incluse a subject or not - picture texts will not go at all.
Anyone else having this problem ???

It's a corporate phone so will need to check. Will not send text messages to non I-phones if they contain a "subject" or a picture. Wierd - regular voice or typed text messages are fine.

I note that several people are having problems loading MS Word files into Pages and the answers have not been helpful. I too, have had this problem recently, whereas a few weeks ago the uploads worked as the manual said. Now, a MS Word 2 doc is rejected

Perhaps the problem lies in the version of the Word file. Does anyone know what versions Pages 09 will accept? I have re-installed iWorks09, but that did not solve the problem. My operating system is 10.6.8 and I am current on updates.

The Word 2 doc is ancient. I wouldn't even know where to find one to test.
The obvious thing to test is open the documents you previously opened successfully.
If they still open successfully, then it is highly likely that the version that is the problem.

Macpro 17inch just shut down while using. Tried removing battery and SMC to no avail. Have had this problem before over the last six months but would always restore. Now you just click on the power button front light stays on for 2 sec

Hi, My 17 inch Mac pro laptop just shut down and I can't get it to turn on again. This has happen multiple times over the last six months. Looked through the forum and tried removing the battery and resetting the SMC control to no avail. I was having issues also with the screen a month ago but that resolved by itself. When I took it into the genius bar for screen problems I was told I'd probably need a new CPU board because the vram may be going bad and they just don't fix that
problem. Have held off because of a potential $500 repair and awaiting ivy bridge technology. Does anyone in the community know how I can restart my portable. Right now you turn on the machine and the front light stays on for 2 sec and you hear the machine click off?

I think you may have already been told what the problem is. However look at this and maybe it will help:

Good luck.

Can's connect to itunes store. I have had this problem for a while. My computes says there is something wrong with the network, but the network is up and running fine.

I want to buy music from the iTunes store, but when I try to connect it says that there is a network problem. My network is connected and up and running fine. I went throught the steps of my norton software (2008) like the system told me and I still can't connect the same message appears. Can someone help me discover and fix this issue. I do not want to take my computer to best buy and pay a bundle of money.

I am having the same issue. I cannot connect at all the the ITunes store. I can do certain things on ITunes, but it is not working correctly. I, too, have followed all troubleshooting instructions, but no success. I can hook up my Ipod and Ipad 2. it is able to download and update applications, but unable to backup on my computer. I hope there are some answers soon.

I am trying to reinstall Itune and it wont install because my computer says it has a virus. Anybody had this happen and what did you do?
