HT4528 Upgrade caused my iPhone to restore!
I just upgraded my iphone 4s and the screen went black and asked me to connect the phone to itunes to restore. I don't want to lose any of my pictures, how can I back track and pretend like I never wanted an update in the first place? This is so frustrating. Aren't updates meant for IMPROVEMENTS? My phone was working just fine before! HELP!
If the device is in recovery mode, the data is already lost.
For what silly reason did you attempt an iOS update without first backing up the device?

Why is os 6 upgrade causing my iphone battery to drain?
Why has the os 6 upgrade caused my iphone 4 battery to drain unusually fast?
when I use the computer usb port to charge the battery, I found something strange:
battery indicator is showing 100% from my iphone within a hour
battery indicator is still showing "charging" from iTunes after two hours.
After two and half hours, the battery indicator is showing "charged" from the itunes.
The battery indicator might make you think your iphone's battery is fully charged from the iphone but it doesn't.
I had same problem from my 4s after upgarded to iOS 6 but Charged the battery overnight or more than two or three hours and it works fine now. -
Really frustrating experience given how much we rely on our phones.
If I plug it into a wall outlet, the phone complaints about "Incompatible accessory", but begins charging. The problem is clearly at the software level, as the charge rate is noticeably slower.

I recently changed my Apple ID and password. Although I thought I was changing my iCloud email which I just learned cannot be changed. I am in the middle of an ugly separation. I just upgraded my old iPhone 4 to a 5s. I have an I pad also. My first completely idiotic thing I did was try to restore my old iPhone 4 in a hurry and I accidently restored it to an earlier day which alone has caused more problems than I care to address. He has access now to all my emails. I wanted to change my iCloud email account since it's been terribly compromised but I can't. And I was very confused when I just tried to log onto my iCloud email and it says his name. I just changed it manually on my iphone5s. But when I try to log on it says I have the wrong password. Tried changing it but it tells me to log onto my Apple ID account and I'm just so confused and I need to wipe that device clean somehow. Please help
I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot! -
I have upgraded to an Iphone 4s from an Iphone, can I delete the icloud account of the old phone on my new one without it causing any problems? it seems to have a lot of storage (3.3Gb)
You should be able to copy all of your purchases (apps, music, films etc) from your current iPhone to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. As long as they remain available in the store then apps can be re-downloaded, music can be re-downloaded in some countries, and TV shows and films in fewer (and even where films can be re-downloaded not all film studios have agreed to it) - ringtones and audiobooks can't be re-downloaded.

In terms of the apps content and settings, then if you backup the phone to your computer's iTunes then you should be able to restore that backup onto your new phone : how to backup and restore. Passwords (email, router, website) won't be restored onto a different device so you will need to re-enter them on your new phone.
You can also copy photos off your current phone. Just in case the backup and restore doesn't work (it should but it's best to be safe), you may also want to copy any important documents off your current phone as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc. -
after upgrading to IOS 5.1 I no longer can see Verizon at the top of my Iphone and under settings>general>Network>says Not Available Why is this? Did the upgrade cause this?

If this doesn't resolve it you most likely have a hardware failure. Fortunately, your phone is in warranty, so if you take it to an Apple store they will replace it. -

Hi, I have recently upgraded from and Iphone 4 to 5. I completed a back up on my iphone 4 via icloud which went ok. When setting up my new phone I selected to set up as a new phone and not via icloud back up. Is there anyway I can restore my details to my new phone? Thanks Hayley
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Navigate to Settings > General > Software Update and install any updates available.
Navigate to Settings > General > Reset > Erase all contents and settings on the device you want to restore.
When this completes and the Set-Up Assistant starts, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose which backup to restore from. -
My iPad was disconnected during upgrade. I've tried restoring and resetting. I just did an iPad erase in "find my iphone" and it still shows the itunes logo and the fire-wire cable on the screen with an arrow. It's currently plugged into my computer. How do I remedy this?

I upgraded to an Iphone 5 and open new Icloud account, I then backed up my phone on my brothers Mac Pro, I now want to restore my info to my phone and I get a message that says not enough space. What do I do
Delete all back ups on MacBook and create new back up. Restart his MB and attempt to restore again. Do not forget to erase your iphone 5 before restore.

If you have a backup, restore the backup. It will restore the settings you had on your old phone

Ios5 upgrade causes black/blank screen on my iPhone 4
I upgraded my iPhone 4 with ios5. Everything seemed to go fine. I clicked on the weather and Safari opened up. Suddenly my screen faded away and now it's just a black (very dimly backlit) screen. iTunes sees my iPhone. Restore didn't help. Is there any way to save my phone? I live in Taiwan, so there is no Genius Bar option.
The Restore in iTunes will delete all the data and return it to factory settings. Then when you get a new iPhone, you can Restore from the Back Up you made with iTunes. So your plan is OK.

IOS 8 upgrade caused me to lose the games I paid for; apple says I hafta restore, which means losing a week of work; are there other options. the game app hooked on words will not respond to several emails
Funny you should ask... At about the same time that the Xserve was discontinued, we also lost our channel rep of nearly 14 years. Right now we are not sure who our rep is. I have however, sent this to as many people in Apple that I could think of. And I plan on continuing to reach out to as many as possible.
The sad reality is that this decision is impacting customer deployments and the future of customer installations. Apple strives for market share and loves to tout those numbers. But the numbers we fought for over these last eight years are going to disappear.
As much as this impacts our business, we are making up for it in enterprise deployment of systems. We will survive and lead in our geographic area. I do not fear that. But OS X Server is a UNIX server and with it has come all of the benefits of a UNIX system, including legitimacy in a data center. The Intel Xserve cemented this reality because of its hardware configuration and form factor. Yes, we have G4 and G5s still in service. But those are mostly in all Mac shops that understand the benefits and can work around the buzz word limitations. But fortune 100/500 IT departments did not really get on board until the release of the Intel server.
Still beating the drum to raise awareness. Spread the word and talk to your Apple reps.
Also, ask about the direction that Apple's Enterprise team is going. If the news I hear is correct, then our fears about all things pro and enterprise going away are likely true.
