I have a new i phone 5 nad my mail is now constantly downloading, how can i stop this?

I have changed my work phone from an I phone 4s to I Phone 5. When I go to my mail it is always downloading and starts downloading emails from 2009. It takes a hours to download all the old emails and it takes hours for new emails to come through.
Then frustratingly it will do the same process all over again.
I have changed very possible setting but with no success.
The email come from my works server and is a microsoft exchange email account.
Please can someone help as this is really making life complicated.

Settings > Mail, Contacts, and Calendars > select the account > change the number of days to sync.

    Sounds like your phone has the jitters.
    This is sometimes caused when a DLL fle is missing when you restore, so the ipsw pacakge wasn't installed corectly.
    You could back up and restore, but if it doesn't help go to http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/ and then download the same firmware your on.
    Open up iTunes and hold Shift+Restore and select that firmware, you can't use anoy ther firmwares though.
    Hope this helped

    Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them, and all future updates will require you to enter the password associated with this ID, whether you are currently using this ID for purchases or not.  If you are being prompted for your sister-in-law's Apple ID when updating it means that there must be one or more apps on your phone that was purchased using her Apple ID.  (When she synced with your computer it may have transferred this app to your library.  It was subsequently synced to your phone.)  The only way to stop the prompt for her ID is to delete these apps from your phone and your iTunes library and repurchase them using your Apple ID.

    I guess he/she open Notes in Gmail settings. This archives (one way sync) notes in gmail account under notes label that is invisible if you are using the standard gmail setup on your iPhone. You can see it on desktop browser, Safari or gmail app in iDevice. Am I wrong?
    Sorry for bad English.

  • My phone is deleting my contacts at random. one minute ill have a contact than I'll message them and than my phone deletes them and its just a number. how can i stop this and get my contacts back?

    since getting my new phone i had to send it out for repair. after only 2 weeks of having the phone. i got a loner phone and restored my phone to the loner, but than a few days after getting this loner phone my phone started deleting my contacts. i couldn't find them and i know i had them. than i turned off my iCloud for contacts thinking that would help. it never. my phone started deleting numbers as i would use them, like i would select a contact message them than right after i hit send that contact got deleted. i figured it was just the loner phone, but since getting my phone back and restoring it it too is deleting my contacts. any way to stop this and get my contacts back?

    It appears that you are using iCloud to sync your contacts, is that correct? Other than turning off iCloud for contacts and then turning it back on again, what other troubleshooting steps have you tried?

  • My phone is texting a random foreign number. How can I stop this?

    I am currently using my old, unlocked iPhone 4 during a work stay in Italy. I have used several different SIMs in this phone and have never had a problem in the past. Now with my new carrier (PosteMobile), I keep on getting charged an international SMS fee. When I call my carrier, they continue to tell me that I am sending text messages to a number in England. I'm certainly not sending anything to this number and my phone shows no traces of it. For privacy purposes, their system doesn't allow them to see the full number, but they tell me that it is continually the same English number that my phone is messaging. Can someone please advise me on how I can handle this situation?

    Chris, thank you for your response. It is appreciated. What you mentioned was my original problem with the SIM (the fact that it did not mesh well with Apple). After plenty of frustration and money wasted, a technician advised me to de-activate iMessage and FaceTime because I was getting charged 0.30 euro for every call and every text. I followed this suggestion and after testing it out, then the phone seemed to be working fine without the extra charge problems.
    This morning when I woke up, I checked my credits on the phone and I had lost another 1.20 euro during the night. When I called PosteMobile, they told me that I had sent another 4 messages to that same UK number. I'm not sure how this is possible, and when I try to explain my situation to them, they are not the friendliest people. I've used WIND before in Italy as a provider without any problems, and they are not listed on the link that you sent me for Italy, so I don't understand why PosteMobile is giving me so many problems.
    I was also wondering if there is a way to block my phone from sending messages to this number? (Although, I don't even know the last 3 digits of the number). Sorry if I'm rambling, but I don't know how to resolve this problem without starting a new contract with another service provider.

  • When I open an old pages doc in new pages 5.0 objects in table cells are removed. how can I stop this?

    When I open an old pages doc with new pages 5.0 - objects, specifically pictures, in table cells are removed. Is there a way I can stop this?

    nigel32,
    Gavin is right.  You are bound to lose images in tables of docs made in previous versions.  If you wish to continue using Pages 5.0 to edit docs from previous versions, you can try re-inserting your images using the following method:
    1.  Click on the cell you want to insert to.
    2.  Select CELL on the right contextual menu.
    4.  Click on FILL and select IMAGE FILL.
    5.  Click CHOOSE then select the image you need from Finder.
    6.  Tweak the appearance using the SCALE slider or drop down menu.

  • I have a word document that keeps stalling with the spinning ball sign - how can I stop this?

    Have a 2009 Macbook Air. Never given me any trouble before. But I am working on a long word document (docx) - 200 pages of text - and after 5 minutes of working on it it starts to stall and the spinning ball comes up every time I try to type or edit. I have tried resaving it as a doc. I have transferred it to my main IMac where the same problem occurs. No other word documents are doing this. This document is a novel, three years in the making, which is due to go off to publishers in a few weeks time so I am rather worried that it is going to be unrescuable. any suggestions?
    I have a time machine and so on so it is all backed up, but i want to be able to work on it!
    Please help!?

    Try this.
    Open the document and select and copy a few pages, say ten pages.
    Open a new blank document and paste the pages you copied into that.
    Save it with a new name.
    Work on those new pages to see if the problem has disappeared.
    If this helps, continue breaking up the large file in to smaller chunks and working on them
    You can of course later reverse the process and merge the files into one new one.
    This suggestion is based on my experiences with large Word files. Breaking it up in to smaller chunks does two things. First, if there is any corruption in the old file, the new copies might escape that. Second, the Mac is faster handling the smaller chunks.

  • After the latest update my phone shows I have a new TXT Message and there are NO TXT messages. How do I fix this?

    After the latest update my phone shows I have a new TXT Message and there are NO TXT messages. How do I fix this? I have tried clearing the cache, I have tried the factory reset, I have no 3rd party messaging apps and have done noting different with my phone that I have been doing the last 6 months.

        Hi Johnnybdamned!
    I regret to learn of any issues after the software update. Let's check some things out on your phone! Does the text message say who it came from? Is it a contact you message on a regular basis? Are you using the messaging application that came with the device, or a 3rd party application?
    I recommend deleting any unneeded messaging threads and then powering the device off/on. Keep me posted!

  • I upgraded to OS8 for my Iphone 5 and now I have no access to e-mail and several apps. How can I address this problem? For those who have an iphone 5 I recommend not upgrading to the new OS until these bugs are resolved.

    I upgraded to OS8 for my Iphone 5 and now I have no access to e-mail and several apps. How can I address this problem? For those who have an iphone 5 I recommend not upgrading to the new OS until these bugs are resolved.

    I foolishly downloaded OS8 on my iPhone 4S. It not only greyed out my wifi button making it impossiblr to use wifi, but bluetooth connection doesn't work either. I reset the phone to factory settings but that did nothing apart from loose all my photos and contacts. OS 8 was still on after too. Apple say it is a problem but the download only brought the fact the hardware was faulty to the fore, but not being under warranty , the repair would cost £166 that I would have to pay. Totally unacceptable. If the problem was known and they knew it would cause problems on older models, why have it bob up on iTUNES for download.
    Don;t download it guys, APPLE aren't admitting culpability and it will cost you a fortune to put right!!

    You are apparently both using the same Apple ID. Change her to a different Apple ID and this will stop.

  • I have a new macbook pro and want to purchase adobe photoshop.   How can I do that with apple retina display compatibility?

    I have a new macbook pro and want to purchase adobe photoshop.   How can I do that with apple retina display compatibility?  Does anyone use photoshop on your mac?

    Adobe is moving from the purchase of a license for their software to the renting of it. I'm old school so I'd prefer a perpetual license. But you already have a subscription to Illustrator so I guess it'd be advisable to look into whether expanding the subscription to include other software will save you some money. Also I remember something about Adobe adding features to its Cloud version which aren't also added to the licensed version and a different way of handling updates and upgrades. Indeed, Adobe states that CS 6 has reached the end of the road. So if you're going to stay with Adobe, you may very well be stuck.
    I'd suggest spending some time in the Adobe Communities. You'll likely find people complaining about choices they've made that you'll have to make too. Let them be the beta testers.

    It appears from many other posts that the " Keep This iPod in the Source List" function isn't included in iTunes 7 unfortunately. You can leave your feedback on it's absence at this link: Apple Product Feedback
    You can check out a workaround at this link which may help out for now: Create ready-to-sync playlists for Shuffles in iTunes 7
