My phone 4s has recently been acting up. I will receive a voicemail but the phone never rang. When I try to call the person back the phone gets stuck on dialing and then freezes I have plenty of signal bars, when I try to end the call it freezes.  I have to do a hard reboot and then the phone works again. It seems like this started after the last update.  My network is Verizon. Any suggestions?

Sounds like the device was dropped at some point and damaged as a result.
Take it to Apple for evaluation and a replacement.

    I bought an iPhone 4S at a supplier who uses Talkmobile. When I switched to GiffGaff and asked the Talkmobile people to port my number and the code which they gave me, they told me my iPhone was never locked and did not need to be unlocked. Now my GiffGaff seems to be up and running and my husband can even leave new voicemail messages but I cannot access my phone. Everytime I put the SIM in it says it's not a valid SIM and that I need a supported carrier SIM. To me that sounds like the phone is locked.

    My husband (who set this up) is going over to Carphone Warehouse right now. He seemed to think that it was locked. But when we asked the carrier we picked, they said it was not locked so they could not unlock it. 
    Are all of you answering these questions familiar with the UK carriers? I am from the US but this was bought and serviced in the UK--nothing to do with the US.
    Maybe the vendor who sold the phone can/will unlock it for us no problem. I guess I will know in the next 5-6 hours. I have just been without a phone for almost an entire day now and it's very frustrating and I thought someone might have had this exact problem and could answer the question for me outright.
    Thanks for everyone's help. Sorry to take up your time.

    Return it. If you can't return it, turn it over to the police and consider this a life lesson.

  • Have an iPhone 5. Phone does not ring when calls come in and texts sent from non-iPhones are delayed by 4-5 hours before receiving.

    Have an iPhone 5. Phone does not ring when calls come in and texts sent from non-iPhones are delayed by 4-5 hours before receiving.

    This morning I woke up thinking that I should turn off my iPhone and then call it from a land line.  If the problem is the network then there would be a delay before I heard ringing.
    I turned my iPhone off and called it.  Right away I heard my message.
    I turned my iPhone back on and called it.  It rang right away!
    So, did Virgin Mobile fix the problem or did turning my iPhone off fix the problem?
    I don't know, but I'll take either.  I do know that Virgin Mobile said it would be four days to check the problem.  Did the problem get fixed yesterday when the four business days were up.  I do know that I've had my iPhone on for a long, long time.  Did upgrading to 6.1.1 or 6.1.2 cause the problem and turning my iPhone off reset my iPhone?
    If you have delayed ringing problem and turning your iPhone off and on again resolved it, please post a note here.
    P.S. I did call Virgin Mobile and its records show the investigation is still open.  I hope my points get passed on to the investigators.
    P.P.S. Reading my notes, I had turned my iPhone off and on last week.  Maybe it's all the phase of the moon.

    When I sync my iPhone5 with my Macbook Pro I get the following message "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because the iPhone disconnected". The strange this is that the phone did not disconnect because it sync my contacts and is charging.
    Why does this happen? I have tried several cables and it does the same thing.

  • While updating the software from 6.1.3 to 6.1.4 on iPhone 5, the power failed. iTunes had just finished the backup and was beginning the software update. Now the phone screen says to connect to iTunes but the phone is not recognised when plugged in.

    While updating the iPhone 5 software from 6.1.3 to 6.1.4, the power failed. iTunes had just finished the backup and was beginning the software update. Now the phone screen says to connect to iTunes but the phone is not recognised when plugged in. Using Windows 7 and phone not recognised by computer, let alone by iTunes.
    Any suggestions? Happy to take it off to the the Apple genius people but would prefer to get it running myself.

  • Hi i just wanna ask about the volume down button in the ipad 2 ,it was mute the device when hold it at once but before 2days i noticed that the device did not mute when i hold it ,why? and how i fix this by the way it is still volume down

    hi i just wanna ask about the volume down button in the ipad 2 ,it was mute the device when hold it at once but before 2days i noticed that the device did not mute when i hold it ,why? and how i fix this by the way it is still volume down

    Have you tried restarting or rebooting the iPad and then see if the volume control will work again?
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Windows Phone Emulator is unable to connect to the Windows Phone operating system: The phone did not respond to the connect request. Some functionality might be disabled

    We are receiving following error, while trying to deploy the application on Win Phone emulator. “Windows Phone Emulator is unable to connect to the Windows Phone operating system: The phone did not respond to the connect
    request. Some functionality might be disabled.”
    I have tried all possible ways that we found on blogs. We are still not able to solve this issue

    I have had a lot of issues with the emulator in the past.
    Check out this troubleshooting guide. It might help:
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/jj681694(v=vs.105).aspx
    Also, I find that if I cancel my build/deploy while it is stuck on booting the OS and then wait a short while the phone OS will complete booting, and from that point I can deploy to the emulator. It's a workaround, but it works well for me.
    I need to do that on Windows 10 tech preview, which may or may not be simply an incompatibility with the beta OS.
    I'm a self-taught noob amateur. Please take this into account when responding to my posts or when taking advice from me.

  • A few months ago I purchased Snow Leopard, but realized too late that I already had Snow Leapord.  What I need is Snow Lion upgrade.  I did not open the software.  Will they refund refund this or exchange it for the Snow Lion upgrade?

    A few months ago I purchased Snow Leopard, but realized too late that I already had Snow Leapord.  What I need is Snow Lion upgrade.  I did not open the software.  Will they refund refund this or exchange it for the Snow Lion upgrade?  Thanks!

    All Updates to Snow Leopard are gotten from Software Update or from the Apple download site.
    There is no Snow "LION". there is Lion and now Mountain Lion buit both of those are Download Only from the Mac App Store. You need to have Snow Leopard 10.6.6, .7 or .8 to have the Mac Apple store link on your Mac.
    To get Lion you need to call the Apple Store, 1-800-MYAPPLE, and order it. They will send you a download code to your Apple ID Email address so you can download it from the Mac Appl Store.
    Oh and when you call them to order Lion ask about returning Snow Leopard.

  • Hi, just bought an Idjay system and I can't get it to work with any of the following: I tried iphone 4s but it has IOS7 so the phone is not recognising when I am plugging the system in I have tried ITouchs,phones

    I have bought a Idjay system and I have the App on the 4S phone however the phone is not aknowledging the system. After googling we found that their is an issue with IOS7 for this system. So we tried an Itouch, its on IOS6 but doesnt work. Then tried an Ipad but the first version. Thought we had success when the Ipad seen the system connect to it. However I then went to download the App onto the Ipad but it needs IOS6 onwards and as its the first model of the Ipad the latest version is 5.1.1 so I cant download the App...
    Any suggestions? do you know how to get the 4S phone to work with it as that would be the ideal scenario?
    Thanks in advance

    They said that there shouldn't be any reason for it not to work. I bought it off ebay and the previous owner used it on the same devices that I am

    Not sure if this Term is Relevant towards an iPhone but, my iPhone won't Post unless if it's plugged into a Charger.

  • TS1630 I am not getting any sound.  The phone does not ring, nor can I hear music. The ringer is on and the volume is up to the max.  When I select a ringtone it only vibrates.

    My phone is not ringing even with the ringer volume up to the max.  Music will not play through the phone.

    My phone is not on mute, the volume is up to the max, there are no blue tooth connections, the phone will not ring only vibrate with the ringer on.  I cannot hear any music through the phone either.

  • IPhone told me I needed to restore and update, also said the phone did not have an IMEI number. I tried to restore from iTunes but keep getting an error message.

    Ok I need help. I went to use my phone, put in my passcode, emergency dial came up, then the phone said I didn't have an imei #. I hit the back button and then I was told I needed to restore and update using iTunes. I tried several times to do this and my phone is still not working. It acts like it's updating, but once the bar reaches the other side of my phone, iTunes tells me there was an error. I used all the ports on my pc, changed cables, restarted my pc, and still nothing. Can anyone please help me. This phone is my life and I can't afford to get another one.

    Sounds like you might need to take it to an Apple Store but if it is an iPhone 3G it would no longer be under warranty.
    Looking at the Apple Store online you can get an iPhone 3GS from $49 on AT&T if it comes to having to get a new one. Your other option is second hand.

  • My phone does not ring when receiving a call. It then goes to voicemail and doesn't show a missed call.

    I have an iPhone 4. When someone tries to call me, the phone sometimes(most of the time now) does not ring. It will roll over to voicemail but does not show a missed call. Has anyone had this same thing happen and how did you get it rectified?

    My wife's iphone 4 also has your same no ring problem as does my iphone 5 just less often.  I called her iphone 4 at home from where I work 20 miles away on my iphone 5.  With her phone in 3G mode ONE call went through and 9 went to voice mail in 10 tries.  This is a 10% sucess rate!!  I also could listen in real time from the wired work phone and the wired home phone.  She turned off 3G mode and it went to "O" mode at  the top left of the screen after the ATT.  In this mode it rang on the first ring tone 5 times out of 5 tries which is 100% of the time.  I have learned that the calling party will hear up to 4 ring tones when placing a call on the ATT network.  If the ring tone changes volume slightly before the 4th ring then and only then will the cell phone start to ring.  If the ring tone does not change after the 4th ring you get voice mail.  If the calling party does not leave a voice message there is never a missed call displayed on the iphone.  If the calling party does leave a voice message a few minutes later the iphone dings for arriving voice mail but still no missed call indication. 
    This appears to be related to the time of day and the ATT tower that the receiving caller is using.  Tried other towers and it works in 3G mode 10 times out of 10 tries.  Apple replaced the first iphone 4 with a new phone, no improvement.  ATT replaced the SIM card and no improvement.  ATT so far is clue less.  This has been going on every since we got the new iphones which is 4 months.  The ATT web site also describes this same problem from several years ago.  Has anyone got better information?
    Thanks

  • I dropped my iPhone 5 and the screen is completely black and when i plug it into my computer it constantly beeps.  When I call it it doesn't go straight to voicemail but my phone doesn't ring.  Rebooting it doesn't work.  What is the problem?

    My screen has been cracked for a while now and today I dropped it and parts of the screen on top came off and the phone went completely black.  I tried calling it and it rings as usual on the line but my iphone doesn't make any sound.  I just plugged in my phone to my macbook and i am still able to import pictures and send imessages but while it's plugged in my phone constantly beeps..the same beeping as it does when its on the charger but it's just one beep every couple seconds.  People have been telling me it could be the LCD..any thoughts?

    Ask Verizon.
    If you don't know whether you have AppleCare+, you can find out warranty information by entering the serial number at http://selfsolve.apple.com. The serial number can be found under Settings > General > About > Serial Number, if you are still able to use the phone. If not, eject the SIM card tray from the right side of the phone using a paper clip or SIM unlock tool. It is in very tiny print on the rim of the tray.
    You cannot purchase AppleCare+ if it's been after 30 days or the phone has already been damaged like yours.
