I had deleted my Apps Icon from the phone as I was trying to update the new version iOS4.3.
However, after deleteing the Icon, I am not able to install the Apps Messenger again because I am not able to use the IOS.4.3 diagnostic password sent via email.
Installation was rejected because I need the iOS.4.3
Thanks for your help

That situation went from inconvenient to complicated quickly. Wait for any pending orders to drop off, wait for things to clear up, wait till your upgrade comes up and then upgrade when your contract is fulfilled. I would have suggested a replacement phone, I know, with only a month left why couldn't you just upgrade early, but these situations where people try to upgrade early always end horribly and once a phone order starts, it almost cannot finish until something winds up shipped received and returned. Sorry this happened the way it did. Definitely not efficient.

Hi! I accidentally deleted my app store from the phone....how to retrieve it back...pls help me...just using the iphone

Hi everyone
I am a new user of iphone 4...i've accidentally deleted the app store from the iphone...pls tell me how to retrieve it back...pls help...tq

To restore the missing App Store Icon, or other original Apple Icons on the iPhone, go to Settings / General / Reset (Don't worry, you will be presented with a number of options concerning resetting before anything happens. The iPhone will NOT reset just by selecting this option).
Choose "Reset Home Screen Layout". This will restore the App Store Icon as well as other Apple Icons you may have removed or placed into folders.
Please note. This also removes any folders you have set up and rearranges all of the apps you have, so it takes awhile to put everything back where it was.
Unfortunately, I did not capture the placement of my Icons, so I had to recreate from memory...not that big a deal. If you elect to follow this procedure, make a note of where all of your icons are placed and then proceed.
I followed links that talked about restoring through iTunes...never could make anything like that work. This is a quick and simple fix.

Accidentally erased "Settings" app / icon. How can I recover it?

I just don't have the icon anymore, and now I cannot change to wifi mode, I only can get access to data through 3G.
I looked for it on the iTunes, but it doesn't appear there neither under my apps.
What should I do?

Hi bqm,
It is either on another home screen (swipe to the left to view each screen), or it got integrated into a "folder" on one of the home screens (for example, if you accidently moved the Settings app on top of, say the Clock app, the system would automatically create a "folder" for them, and name it Utilities.
You can always swipe to the right from the first home screen and do a spotlight search. Just type Settings into the search window, and it will list it. That will show you that it is still there, but won't tell you where it is. However, you can open it from there and modify your settings.
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
GB

How do I move an app icon from one page to another?

I would like to organize my Ipad2 but can figure out how to move the app icon from one page to another.

Tap and hold down on an app icon until it wiggles. Then hold down on the icon and drag it about halfway over to the next screen and just hold it there for a second or two and the app will jump to the next page. Do it slowly and just hold the app on the edge of the screen. Don't try to drag it over quickly. It takes a little practice.
Tap the home button when you are done and the apps will stop wiggling.

I accidentally erased a text message from my iPhone, how can I get it back

I Accidentally erased a text message from my iPhone 5; can I get it back

If you backed that message up before you deleted it you can Restore from your backup. If not it is gone, but if you just need some information from it you might try a spotlight search for a keyword in the text.

HT201210 i can't add app icons to my phone.

I completed the update of ios 7 and had app icons on my phone. Now they are on my App store and I can open them but I can't add the icon of that app to my phone. How do I get that Icon back on my phone?

You will have to
reinstall from the original source
Could be
1 - the restore disks that came with the computer
or
2 - the iLife DVD that you purchased
or
3 - the app store - log in under the Apple id used to purchase the software or to set up the computer - look under purchases - you might have to unhide or accept the Application first
Then you will have to restore your backup of the older iPhoto library from your backup

Is there a way to put a playlist on my phone from my computer without erasing the other music from my phone?

Is there a way to put a playlist on my phone from my computer without erasing the other music from my phone?

Not if you set up very carefully what you want synced from your computer. Make sure you have not set things to sync automatically and manually choose the settings of what gets synced

I was syncing everything to itunes and I tried to do my contacts, not knowing quite how. I ended up erasing all of them from my phone without any of them syncing to my computer or itunes. Is there any way I can get them back? I really need them all.

There are lots of ideas floating on the web for this particular issue - all of which I tried. I had the same problem and it turned out to be my USB cable. I thought the cable was fine as it would charge my phone and play but the data transfer pin was bent. I replaced the cable and it fixed the problem. Worth a shot as it is an easy fix!

Load the content she wants on there.

Is there anyway to disable the chime when I accidentally catch the microphone icon while texting (phone is in silent mode)

Hi all,
I might be being a little dull here, but my question is exacly as in the title: Is there anyway to disable the chime when I accidentally catch the microphone icon while texting (phone is in silent mode)? I have fat fingers occasionally and whilst people at work don't mind private phone usage to have it occasionally activating the mic and then me cancelling it a little annoying.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Dave

There is a proximity sensor that should turn the screen off when you place the phone near your face. Do you have a case that's blocking this? Try removing your case. If no case, try restoring you iPhone. If still a problem, return it to Apple for a warranty replacement.

Accidentally deleted the photos app icon from my iPhone 4s.

I've read the previous threads on this topic but none quite fit the bill. I need to re-install the Photos icon, which has disappeared.
This happened while I was holding my phone but not paying attention; when I looked again the icons were all shaking. I don't know how the icon disappeared because the factory defaults don't offer a delete option, but the icon definately disappeared at that time.
The app itself is still there and, because it was running when I deleted the icon, I can currently still access it by double clicking the main button, where app (and icon) is still accessible there at the bottom of the screen. But this is not convenient for general usage, and if I hard close the app from there then I will have no way to open the Photos app.
I can't re-download the app because it is a factory default app and not available anywhere (and as such shouldnt be deletable!).
The icon isnt hiding anywhere amongst my subfolders, and I've checked for restrictions but there arent any.
Restetting the home screen layout to factory defaults presumably means I will lose all the other app icons I have, and their sub folders etc, which I dont want to do either.
I have now backed up my phone and all my photos etc, but if I restore my phone from a previous backup, I will lose the data and messages I've acquired isince then.
All I want to do is re-install the icon and make sure it links to the photos app that is still installed - surley that can't be so hard?
All help appreciated.
I don't have a Mac and run Windows 7 on a Sony VAIO. All versions of iTunes and IoS are up to date.

PROBLEM SOLVED
ANSWER The exact same thing happened to me today. I accidently deleted my Photo app (with over a 1000 photos in it) but I could still access it by pressing the home button twice. This is because it was with the background running apps (when you press the home button twice it shows all the apps running in the background) but it would not let me drag it to the Home screen.
Well so I was anxiously reading this thread at church to see what to do (I did a search for, 'I accidently deleted my Photo app' and how I came across this thread). Anyway, I searched all my subfolders and everywhere IT WAS NOT IN ANOTHER FOLDER AND THE PHOTO ICON WAS COMPLETELY GONE FROM ANY OF THE DESKTOPS.
Anyway, my phone was dying and no way to charge it so it died at church and so I connected it to my car charger in my car when leaving church and after the iphone came on again, there was the Photo App on my desktop!
So my advice is to let it completely run out of it's charge then later plug into a charger. I have the iPhone 4S going on almost 2yrs now and this is the first time this has happened to me! I was in a hurry getting ready for church and pressed it accidently so I know exactly when it happened (when all the apps have x's and you can delete them ...).
I always delete the backgound running apps to save battery power but I thought now I can never delete the Photo background running app or will lose everything! Hope this works for you all. I know I can connect it to my desktop and all but try this first - much easier...

How do I remove App Icons from iPad air

Hi ,I recently have bought an Ipad air,and want to remove some old app icons that have come through from an i pod touch I have?
Lots of discussion for removing apps once downloaded,but none say how to remove icons on apps page that are redundant.
Help please.
Lizd

You left out a very important fact in your first post...you are seeing this in the App Store, correct? I was assuming you were just at your iPad's home screen and trying to delete the Apps.
The list you see in the App Store in regards to updates that you've downloaded is a list that cannot be modified nor changed. It's simply meant as an informative list of any updates you've downloaded and when the update was installed. The list will start dropping these updates off after a couple of weeks or so.
