HT4623 updated to ios7 on Sunday - I am having major problems with my phone since - keeps freezing - updated itunes first then backed up my phone to my laptop. Is it worth it at this stage doing a restore?
I updated my iphone 5 to ios7 on Sunday and have been having m?ajor problems with my phone since. It keeps freezing and I have to constantly press the home and on/off switch to get it to restart. I had updated my itunes and backed up the phone before doing the update. I'm getting very frustrated at this stage as the phone is practically useless. Is it worth doing a restore? Bearing in mind that I just tried to do that and got a message to turn off the 'find phone' feature in settings and when I tried to get into settings the phone froze again.
I don't have a good answer for you but reading these forums, it seems that network drives can often cause problems with iTunes like you describe.

I updated my iPhone to iOS 7.0.5 and I lost my messages and camera app and other apps i downloaded from app store. I was having the problem of losing apps since before I updated to the latest IOS. I have tried enable and disable restriction, connecting my phone to my laptop and sync from my computer and none of them is working. What should i do?
Often when this type of thing occurs with missing default apps it is due to a situation where you are unable to 'see' the apps. If you will go to your front display of your device go to settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen layout.
This reset allows for your apps that have for whatever reason been hidden in such an area as you arn't able to find them now to be returned to the area as which they were when you first had the device.
As far as the missing Apps that were purchased through the Apps Store if you will go to settings>itunes and Apps store and click where it reads about automatcally downloading apps clicking on the toggle switch AND clicking on the toggle switch which allows for cellular data to be enabled this then will effectively automatically download all apps to your device that was purchased from the App Store.
Good luck friend. -

Thanks. I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data. Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again. -
Tons of problems with original iphone since 2.0 update
i have the 4gb iphone got it the first week it came out and have not had a problem with it since it came out. I think in the past year i had to restore it twice. Since the 2.0 i have a list of problems.
1. when i turn my phone of it turns it self right back on.
2. The speaker sounds like it is blown it make a bad crackling.
3. I keep getting a message that tells me that my phone is not compatible with this accessory would i like to go in to airplane mode. Even thought nothing is plugged in and with this problem it turn the screen on every couple of min so my battery is dead by mid day.
4. My sound sometimes does not work ex. keyboard or apps.
5. and i have not been able to download apps or from my phone or. i have to delete the app from my phone and reinstall it.
with all these problems i have to restore my phone once our twice a week to get it to work properly. i am at the point of going back to my old phone just so i can have a phone that will work all day.I tried restoring the iPhone as a new one, but since it wont back up on iTunes in the first place after the restore I get an error stating "the last backup on xx/xx/2008 is corrupt" and had to re-enter all new contacts just like when I first bought the phone. This only happened after the 2.0.2 software update...what the he11 did that update do my phone? I'm almost hoping i can return this phone to get my old one back...which actually worked btw.

When Z2 did their first 5. Update, a message popped up saying you had to do the update. After doing so, another pop-up said to remove and reload the game. In doing so, all my progress/ purchases disappeared. I only updated on my iPad, not my iPhone, so the iPhone app is till on the "you have to install the update to play" status. I've written to Z2 three times with no response. I would at least expect a refund of the $ I have spent on the game.
You bought an app but it did not work properly on your device. You can easily report problems with your iTunes Store purchases via the iTunes Store. Here is how:
Launch iTunes > Choose Store > Sign in.
Store > View My Account > Purchase History then Click the Report a Problem button.
Fill out the form explaining the problem you are having.
Submit the problem report and wait for a response from Apple, they usually respond within 24 hours.
Notes:
When Apple emails your invoice, there will be a link on the invoice. You may also click the “Report Problem” link next to the app that you are having issues with to report your problems.
Problems with in-app purchases or free apps, report them here:http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ww/
Before reporting your issue, make sure that you followed these troubleshooting steps explained here.

I am having many problems with the CC 2014 application manager update
I have 2 seats. Thus I have CC 2014 installed on four computers. All four are high end desktops with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit installed, all four with the latest patches. All four also use high end nvidia graphics cards all with the latest drivers.
On all four, when I tried to update the application manager, only the frame of update the window was visible. Then, when I moused over the empty frame, the blue update button became visible, but nothing else. Since the common thread is nvidia drivers, it seems there may be a conflict. But one card is a Quadro FX 5800, another is 2x SLI NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285, another is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 2GB, and the fourth is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 3Gb. So all four have different cards.
I went ahead and installed the app mgr update and all the program updates on all four computers. All four had problems, two of them serious.
On one computer, there were problems booting up. The boot up problems went away when I restored to a prior image. I tried several times. The problem persisted. I finally gave up on updating this computer.
This boot up problem then happened on a second computer. I restored to a prior image and the problem went away here as well. I then tried the installs again. This time, the computer booted fine, but I lost the ability to send email. I use Thunderbird and have had no problems sending email ever (for at least the past 8 years). So I again restored to a prior image and the email problem went away. I then tried the installs a third time. Same result. Investigating, I was able to get an alternate outgoing mail server to work (that of my company site). But I never got the Verizon server to work. Incoming? Yes. But no outgoing.
On the third computer, I also had problems booting. But rebooting many times seems to have solved the problem. Unfortunately, Premiere crashes so often I've reverted to CC.
I realize that Adobe puts much work into making their software better. And I depend on it every day. But to be honest, I've just spent several whole days trying to fix broken computers. And my confidence in Adobe is at an all time low.
I so regret not staying with CC.>regret not staying with CC

I am having major problems with the latest update for my itunes!
I am having problems with the latest update for itunes, it says 'itunes has an invalid signature'. I have completely uninstalled itunes but now it wont download at all. Have tried downloading it 4 times tonight already. Anyone know how to get it to download? Or what to do?
I am having problems with the latest update for itunes, it says 'itunes has an invalid signature'.
That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer? -
Is anyone else having majors problems with latest update?!?
I love my Droid X and have never had problems with it until now. My phone had been pestering me about the update so I finally let it. Then I didn't like the look of the main screen, but I liked the index down the side of the contacts and the new keyboard when texting (except the smiley face was missing). But then I started noticing problems, I can't move my contacts to groups and I can't take pictures. I have a constant notification that says 'Blank SD card SD card blank or has unsupported filesystem" and when I try to take a picture I get a message that says "Please insert sd card before using the camera". Is there any way to remove the update without erasing everything on my phone? I'm really not happy with Verizon giving us an update with these kinds of problems. I want a new update asap that undoes the last one.

Sorry, you can't go backwards. However, it appears that you might have a bad SD card. If your computer can read cards, check it out. If not, go to your VZ store and have them check out your SD card. If your card is bad, that is what might be causing you all your headaches.
The store will DO NOTHING for you if you are getting a message saying your SD card is having problems, so don't even go there as they will pretty much tell you that you are out of luck - VZW's official stance on the SD card issue is that it is not their problem. You're better off going and buying your very own SD card, althoug these will have problems also
I started having problems with my SD card when the GB update came out back in August....the original SD card the phone came with completely corrupted, I bought a new card of my very own (since both 800 support and the VZW pretty much told me I was out of luck and laughed me out the door), which had problems as well, getting a message in both late August and mid-Sept that the card had problems and to reformat it. I seriously believe the phone itself, if not the update, is causing problems with the SD card. SD cards don't have problems like this....yes they fail just like anything else, but to have had one card go corrupt and another one give a damaged message all within a months time? Sorry that's not the cards.... -
I have Windows Vista and last week I upgraded my iTunes, i think it's up to 11. something or other and now all my music in my iTunes library has this scratch-type noise in the middle of the song. I've never had this issue before, all my songs played wonderfully and now every song has this scratching-type noise in the middle of it. Can someone help me?
OK, after looking into the settings on "my account" on the Verizon website, it appears that "caller ID" was removed from my "features" on my line. The only reason I actually noticed this is because I have the same phone as someone else on our account, so I looked at their features and noticed mine was missing. Any idea how to get it back on there? I can't seem to figure it out.

Everything was working fine until today. I don't like having tabs on top, and I'd like to have them in the classic firefox position, like many people as well.
I hope you'll fix this with the next update.I won't swap to Chrome, but lot of people just might will, and this is pissing me off... Really, the reason not to allow having tabs on bottom is very stupid. And there is nothing in the addons...

I have a problem with the keyboard on my MacBook. The letters are typing as symbols and the delete and return/enter buttons do not work. Does anybody know how to fix this?
Hey skyshade13,
Thanks for the question. The following article outlines how to restore a previous iTunes library should there be no content after updating. While the article does not speak specifically to your symptoms, attempting the steps by utilizing the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder may resolve your issue.
No content shows up in iTunes after updating

Try to Restore with iTunes on your computer. If this does not work, there is full Warranty. Make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple for resolution.

BF tried to update to ios6 on iphone 4 but crashed half way through saying it needed to plugged into iTunes and then restored so after it was 'restoring' he had an error message come up say to couldn't be restored....what should be do next as the phone is in a complete non working condition
Spent hours trying everything suggested and finally this morning hit on a solution. iTunes must be run as an administrator. Even though you are logged into your PC as an administrator, using the iTunes shortcut does not make you an administrator in iTunes. I found this out by using the diagnostics in iTunes and reading through the results report.
I am using Windows 7, so I clicked the start button and right clicked on iTunes and selected "Run as an adimistrator". The first restore attempt got the 4013 error. I then did the DFU thing, hold power and home buttons for 10 seconds, release power and continue holding home for 10 more seconds.
iTunes gave me the restore message and I clicked it. I clicked the restore iPhone button and it started. The drivers loaded a couple of times. I got the apple logo with the progress bar and this time instead of disappearing, it started to fill in.
End result, a successful restore to factory settings and a happy 14 year old.
Hope this helps others. -
