I am soo unhappy! Everyday I am discovering what I cannot do on my iPhone 5s! Since September 20, I purchased the new 5s and iPad mini with Wi-fi and I have had nothing but trouble. I cannot use my iPad, it is worthless! My old iPad 3 worked better which I traded it in for. I cannot get Wi-fi to work properly on either device. I have to be standing next to my router for it to work. My router works fine and worked fine with my old iPad 3. The list is endless...... I am on my 3rd replacement for iPhone and still experiencing problems.
-Facetime just starts without me promting it
-I have almost every call I make drop
-Siri does not register with my voice, very frustrating!
-I have a new car and the 5s will not let me use my console phonebook favorites shortcuts
-I cannot attach a photo from a relpy or an email for that matter. WTH??? Why??
-I cannot scroll to the bottom of a page without playing "spin the wheel" and have the pop up screen come up and then accidentally hit private mode then  miss  phone calls.  But I can scroll to the top with a couple of tries. I have small fingers so why is this so user unfriendly?
-My cellular connection notice keeps coming on? Why? Both on iPhone iPad
-My Wi-fi does not work I have to be standing next to my router for it to work for both my iPhone 5s and iPad mini. My router works fine and worked fine with  my  old iPad 3.
-My icloud is not saving my new phone numbers so each time I have received a new phone numbers get LOST!
- I now cannot look anything up while on the phone AND NO ONE TOLD ME THIS BEFORE I PURCHASED THIS PHONE! I really have needed it through all  the time I have been on the phone with either Apple or Sprint! A total of of at least 40hours and I am not exaggerating!
-I have to switch to too many pages to write emails, texts or even phone calls! Not as easy as 1,2,3. WHY?
-Merging on iCloud can erase numbers be careful! What a nice option I thought. As my Android/Gmail basically threw up on my new iPhone. So I had  multiple  contacts of the same person. E.G. 5 Joe Smoo. All listed separately, one was an email,2nd was FB, 3rd Home phone, 4th cell and 5th fax or listed  as other.  Well, if someone has 2 cell phones or emails and you merge then iCloud takes the privilege of ERASING one of the 3s or contacts. Also, some of  them were  listed as other and that too got ERASED. Thank you iCloud! I only discovered this after merging at least 20 contacts because I was told I had to  to manually  go into my phonebook to try and fix the quadruplet or more names on my phonebook.
-There is more believe me! BTW I have been pretty dedicated to Apple (macbook, iMac and iPad),  only I had an Android phone because my carrier didn't  have  iPhone & I did not want  AT&T. This is turning me into sour grapes or should I say apples!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please respond if you have similar problems or any because no one else seems to be experiencing such problems as I have. If you are an Apple employee then please have someone contact me.

Dude or hot-spur,
Not fishy at all!!!! You really think I would have taken any more of my time to post a bogus rant? We'll no, it is unfortunately all true. I want to hear from anyone who is experiencing such problems not anyone else that wants to put there two cents in. I really don't need anymore hate or negativity. Just people's experiences because I feel like I am the only one having so many problems. Thank you
Yes, I have had some unfortunate bad luck to have so many problems at the same time, but some of them are just things you cannot do on the new OS.
Thank you again

  • HELP NEEDED! My wife's 5c won't recognise on my laptop anymore. I plug it in and the laptop makes a sound but won't show up the phone. I only recently discovered this problem when I upgraded. It will recognise my 5c and even the iPad but not her 5c

    I discovered this problem when I upgraded my iPhone 4 to a 5c.
    My laptop will recognise my 5c and even the wife's iPad but won't recognuse her 5c, when I plug it in it makes a sound but just doesn't show up in iTunes.
    It DID work on my laptop as recently as November when I backed up her phone and updated her software but like I say ever since I upgraded it just won't recognise her 5c but does mine.
    I just can't think what is wrong? I haven't messed around with anything on the laptop or messed around with the wife's settings on her 5c
    HELP!!!!

    I would test with another computer and another cable
    if it the device would not be detected by any computer I
    would say that it's connector was broken

  • I just "upgraded" my iPhone with the new software. As a low vision person, your phone was always previously helpful. I now discover that I cannot use the phone easily. The font has been changed to a very narrow typeface and the greyscale has been altered

    I just "upgraded" my iPhone with the new software. As a low vision person, your phone was always previously helpful. I now discover that I cannot use the phone easily. The font has been changed to a very narrow typeface and the greyscale has been altered to reduce contrast. The background is now grey as well rather than white. The accessibility options permit only three choices. First, increase type size. With the the low greyscale, thin typeface, increasing type size makes it HARDER to read. There is no option for contrast enhancement. Third, the background switch options suffers from the same deficit as the white background. The third choice is to enhance brightness but without the option to change contrast, this is useless. Am I missing something? Can this be fixed? How? When? Are you planning a similar negative "update"/change to other devices?

    I am having the same problem. I have gone through every setting, set the bold font, contrast, larger font....everything I could find in any post to try and help - and between the new color scheme that makes it virtually impossible to use the pictures of my grandchildren as background (the picture colors now become the theme colors - which now match the colors of many of the "flat" icons...) I am finding the phone very difficult to use--espeically things like the calendar which has now become very hard to "see" and use. If I can't revert this thing to iOS6, I may have to get a different phone.

  • After upgrading my ipad to ios 7.0.4, I discovered that the 3d book graphic in ibooks was essentially flat.  The reason that i decided to purchase the device was the appeal of this presentation.  Now sadly it is gone.  Are there any plans to restore it?

    After updating my ipad to ios 7.0.4, I discovered that the wonderful 3d page presentation had been changed to an essentially flat two columns of text.  The reason that I choose to purchase the device was solely based on this feature.  The sense of reading a physical book was overwealmingly wonderful. When I complained about this to Apple support, I was informed that ibooks was essentially an independent developer over which Apple exercised no control.  I asked how I could directly register my complaint with ibooks and was told that the only recourse to communicate with the ibooks developers was through an Apple Forum which they "occasionally do read".  So how about it ibooks - what say ye?

    Nobody in these forums can tell you anything about Apple's plans.
    What you were told by Apple support sounds like nonsense to me.  In particular the best place to give Apple your views on how they have changed this app is via

  • I downloaded Firefox 5 and discovered it disabled my McAfee SiteAdvisor becauce of incompatability. How do I delete the Firefox 5 and reload my old Firefox 4 so I can reactivate the SiteAdvisor.

    I downloaded Firefox 5 and discovered it disabled my McAfee SiteAdvisor because of incompatibility. No compatible version of the SiteAdvisor was found. How do I delete the Firefox-5 and reload my old Firefox-4 so I may reactivate the SiteAdvisor?
    Thank you

    McAfee have taken the decision to rewrite the Firefox SiteAdvisor plugin to make it easier to update. This should ensure that Mozilla's fast-release schedule does not cause lengthy delays after future version updates. What it means for Firefox now though is that until the rewrite is complete - and tested - SiteAdvisor is being prevented from loading in Firefox in order to avoid the possibility of software incompatibility.
    The SA rewrite is projected to take a few weeks to complete and test; it should be ready by about the third week of July, although the exact date is not being given at this stage. It could be earlier.
    In the meantime, users who are concerned about the safety of websites may wish to consider WOT as a temporary substitute. WOT ratings are set by user consensus rather than by automated site testing, so WOT is not a full replacement for SiteAdvisor. It is, however, a good rating tool in its own right (I use both it and SiteAdvisor in all my browsers) and is apparently unaffected by the upgrade to FF5.
    There is a discussion about this on the McAfee forums [https://community.mcafee.com/thread/36733?tstart=0 HERE]

  • Unhappy with Yosemite's "new" Pages? Or the "new" photos?

    ME TOO! I cannot tell you how much Yosemite's version of Pages *****. Here's why:
    It has been redesigned to work more like the mobile version. Bad idea right out of the box. Think about it. No matter how handy it may be on occasion to do a simple card or similar thing on your iPad or iPhone's Pages, please tell me exactly how anyone would find it better in any conceivable way than doing it on their computer, with it's full fledged programs! Why would anyone (especially those who work with words and graphics) prefer the new version that oh, just like the mobile one, has FEWER features, not MORE, than the previous version? The inevitable will soon happen: you resort to time wasting work arounds or be forced to look around for a better program that is full featured and well organized. But that's also a time waster.
    I am also unhappy about how Apple has ditched iPhoto and Aperture. That said, as a long time user of Aperture, I was already resigned to using another expensive Adobe program (Lightroom).
    As disconcerted as I am about things that Apple has done or may do in the future, I went out and bought two new Apple computers. My 2008 Intel iMac died and my husband's 2002 Powerbook was unbearably slow. I got a new iMac for me, and a Macbook Air for my husband. Without considering any windows computers. However, since it has become clear that Apple will do whatever it wants, no matter what long time users, often professional, need.
    I think Yosemite is OK as an upgrade operating system and the presence or lack of the transparency it had, is a design issue that is not of great importance to me. But the dumbed down software? Now that is a gripe.

    Is there any fix to this, though? I had a perfectly fine template for my newsletter, and trying to get it to work with Yosemite is a nightmare. OK, end of complaint. Is it possible to get text to follow onto the next page? That's my immediate problem. Also, I am saving constantly, but if I make one little change to a page, it seems to screw things up several pages away - I want those pages to stay the way they were. Deadline approaching!

  • You've introduced TABS but I discovered by opening Yahoo and running a video that it continues when I open a new tab! Not good. Have I missed a setting or ???

    You've introduced TABS but I discovered by opening Yahoo and running a video that it continues when I open a new tab! Not good. Have I missed a setting or ??? This may be just the way it is but it somewhat defeats the ease of going to a often used web site using tabs.

    So, you are meaning that if you have a video running in one tab, then go to another, the video continues to run? yes, that is normal behavior.
    Tabs are basically having like multiple windows inside one main window. It is just as if you opened a video in a window, started it playing, then opened a new window, the video would still play.
    Or am I misunderstanding your question?

    If you only had the one installation, you should still be able to install even without contact Adobe Support since you are allowed to have activated installations on two machines.  But if you have the deactivate for the original you will then have the extra one available.

  • Just bought an apple iMac went to import music cd only to discover it doesn't have a cd/DVD player can't find any on the apple site what do I need to buy to import cd into ITunes

    ,Just bought an apple iMac went to import music cd only to discover it doesn't have a cd/DVD player can't find any on the apple site what do I need to buy to import cd into ITunes

    Get the Apple USB Superdrive. It is available on the Apple store page of the Apple web site. Just look under storage on the left hand column under accessories for the Mac.  $79.  I have one since I have a lot of DVD's and CD' s. I burn DVD's made from movies created with iMovie.  Works fine. You may be able to find one cheaper at Other World Computing.
    BTW, you can expect that future computers will not have optical disk drives. This is definitely true for Apple and I suspect other mfgrs will also as we move more into streaming video and downloading of apps rather than selling CD/DVD versions.
