I've had a bunch of issues with my iPhone 4 since the iOS 7 update

My iMessage doesn't work at all. Whenever I send iMessages they don't load nor do they automatically convert to text messages like they used to whenever the iMessage didnt work.
Next, I used to be able to highlight and define a word I typed in a text, a tweet, or an email etc. and now whenever I highlight and select define for a word it always says no definition found. I used to love that feature.
Finally, I find that some websites take longer to load now than they did before.
What to do, what to do? Im starting to regret updating to iOS 7.

How about starting with the basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide?

HT4623 Why my iPhone doesn't connect with my wi-fi since the iOS 7 update?

My phone no longer connects to wi fi since I upgraded to ios7. It tells me it has updates but can only update it using wi-fi. How can I do this if it will no longer connect to my home wi-fi or any other. Our iPad is fine. Its just my phone. Tried several of the suggestions that were posted on line and it still isn't connecting.
Thanks

Problems with iPhone 4s since the IOS 6 update

I've had nothing but problems with the IOS 6 update! The day after the update my camera started to slowly go out. I open my camera ap and the "lens cap" appears and then it sits for a few seconds and takes me back to my home screen. Annoying yes, but not the end of the world. But today I wanted to break my phone in half. I started to dial my brother's phone number and before I keyed the last two digits of his number my phone decided to call the number on it's own. I have yet get that off my screen. I can no longer make or receive any calls. When my phone is locked instead of my screen saver appearing my phone displays a screen that looks as though as my husband is trying to call me with his caller id photo- I swipe to "answer" it and it reverts back to the phone screen with keypad and the half dialed cell phone number of my brother! All calls are going straight to voicemail. When I leave the phone ap the green bar appears at the top of the screen and says "tap to return to call". If you tap to return to the call - there it is again-the half dialed number of my brother. I'm losing my mind and so frustrated. I put it into airplane mode hoping to "refresh" it and it still does it in airplane mode. I've never had to reset it and I'm not sure what option of resets to pick. Any advice is welcomed because I'm lost at this point.

Try to reset the phone. Hold both the home and power buttons at the same time. When the Apple logo appears on the screen, you can release the buttons and wait for the device to reboot. No data is lost during ths process.

I have iphone 4 and the software is ios 7.0.2. I am facing problems with my phone. Since the last software update my phone has started giving problems. like it hangs sometime when i recieve an incoming call. The carrier status bar shifts down a bit and sometimes it vanishes automatically. I,m confused.
Secondly i have an update IOS 7.0.4 waiting in my Software Update menu. I have tried so many times to update my iphone but it always fails to update the IOS 7.0.4. Any body suggest anything regarding this

Wow. Lots of help. Thanks apple

Myself and my partner had a iphones. Since the recent software update he now randomly receives texts from my contacts and also when im sending texts. Is this because we share the same apple id. This didnt happen before the software update.

You can both share the same Apple ID for purchases but i suggest one of you use another email for the use of iMessage, Facetime etc.
It is easy to do, the easiest way is to set up an iCloud email directly from your iPhone. Once set up one of you will use this for iCloud services but both still use the existing Apple ID to make purchases.

I have not updated my iPhone 4 since the IOS 5.1 update. Can I now update it with the latest software even though I am missing other updates?

When going to your software updates on your device it will provide you with the latest available update for your device.
the iPhone 4 will update to iOS 7.0.4 provided all other updates the device is asking for has been completed.
Good luck friend.

MAJOR issues with Safari in Leopard since 10.5.1 update

Not sure what the heck is going on with Safari in Leopard since the 10.5.1 update, but for the first time in a long time I've had to put Firefox back in my dock to get a satisfactory web surfing experience.
Using Safari, most page loads don't ever complete (blue bar gets half or two thirds across and hangs), and randomly addresses will become unusable -- i.e., a reliable address like apple.com won't load anymore and I get the "server not responding" error, yet it works perfectly fine in Firefox. Restarting the computer sometimes will fix the problem for that particular address, but other addresses will experience the same behavior.
I have no third party extensions installed (never have) -- don't even have the "Input Managers" folders that others have written about in these forums.
Repaired permissions, still no love.
If anyone has any ideas, would love to hear them -- otherwise I'm going to have to stick with Firefox until Apple can get this straightened out.

If you are updating Safari (or just have):
Input Managers and other plug-ins from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed 10.4.11 and Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari. Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 uses Safari 3.0.4 which is not a beta. If Safari 3.0.4 on 10.4.11 is not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
Moreover, trying to revert to Safari 2 when running 10.4.11 can have repercussions, as Safari 3.0.4 uses a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail, Dashboard widgets etc also rely.
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Two such add-on that have been frequently mentioned here, among others, for causing such problems are Piclens and Pithhelmet. If you have them, trash them and go the developer's sites to see if new versions are available for Safari 3.0.4.
You should also ensure, if you are running Tiger 10.4.11 or Leopard, that you have downloaded and installed the correct version for your Mac of Security Update 2007-009.1.1, which also deals with the Quicktime/Flash issues you may have experienced, as well as the latest Java update.
Also try this:
Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
form values
download.plist
Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
com.apple.Safari.plist
Repair permissions.
Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
If not, MacFixit have published a very detailed (very!) article on speeding up a slow Safari, here:

Has anyone had issues with connecting to bluetooth since the update?

Ever since the update, my car bluetooth has issues finding my iphone. It searches and searches, but nothing. It happens about 40% of the time I get in the car (since updating). Does anyone have a fix for this? It is very frustrating... I can't listen to music or answer calls.

sorry, I am using 8.1!

Multiple issues with my iPhone 3GS since 4.1; can anyone help?

Hi,
I have an iPhone 3GS 16GB which I love very much. Vital Statistics are:
Version: 4.1 (8B117)
Carrier: Voda AU 8.0
Model: MC132X
Modem Firmware: 05.14.02
I bought it through Vodafone Australia in January this year. It’s been brilliant, it is this device which convinced me Apple sold brilliant gear, and greatly influenced me to buy my iMac 27", 17" Macbook Pro, Airport Extreme, and Time Capsule.
I am a Senior Test Analyst with telco experience in all of Australia’s mobile phone operators (3, Vodafone, Optus, and Telstra). I now work for a global media company, and depend on my iPhone for phonecalls, emails, internet, getting access to my share trading platform, banking apps, calendar, etc.
I went to Germany for 2 months, and I bought the unlock from my carrier, Vodafone Australia, so I could use a usim from Vodafone DE in Germany. Vodafone’s instructions were that in order to apply the unlock, I had to connect my iPhone to iTunes, where it would download an update from Apple and unlock my phone.
I performed the upgrade to 4.1, which was a completely clean install after backing everything up.
Unfortunately, after upgrading from 3.1.3 to 4.1 I am having no end of issues with my trusty (once) 3GS.
Issues I am currently encountering:
1. Dropped calls. Both in Germany, and in Australia, my iPhone is dropping calls at a rate it has never, ever done before. 1 out of ever 2-3 calls is being dropped. The voice quality is also degraded over what I remember it being (both in AU and DE), and I’m getting ‘squawks’ and ‘screeches’ in the middle of my conversations which I never had prior to upgrading.
2. Signal strength is very poor. Before I upgraded to 4.1, I was able to make and receive phonecalls at my desk at work (right in the heart of Sydney’s CBD, right next to Hyde Park.) without issue. I was able to walk in between my company’s offices in the CBD and talk the whole way without problem. Now, I get 1 bar at my desk, and I’m lucky if I can make a phonecall 50% of the time there. I can no longer receive the volume of calls that I used to at my desk either. Walking between offices sees my phone calls drop EVERY TIME now. At home, with 3.1.3, I had no problem with reception. Now, I drop calls inside my house on a regular basis, and I often don’t have enough signal to make calls at home where prior I had no issues. My younger brother, who bought an iPhone 3GS on the same day I did, from the same Vodafone store, at the same time, is still on 3.1.2. He has no problems with reception in the house at all. He walks around taunting me holding phonecalls without issue.
3. Internet performance has been devastated. Whereas my google maps, email, and internet access used to be fast and crisp, now it is slow and haphazard. I am also seeing the 3G symbol disappear and be replaced by an E symbol, and my phone seems to have difficulty staying on the 3G network. My brother, standing right next to me, does not have these problems. Once again, my brother’s iPhone 3GS on 3.1.2 does not have any internet problems when he is using his iPhone right beside me. We are on the same carrier (Vodafone AU), on the same plan.
4. My iPhone battery life has been dramatically reduced. Whereas I used to be able to use it for almost a full day, with minor top ups when it got really busy, now my battery life vanishes before my eyes in half the time. This is with the device simply not being up to the task of performing the workload it used to!
5. My iphone locks up, and crashes at random times, and I’ve been having to hard-reset it on occasion.
6. My iPhone is far slower than it used to be. I’ve compared it to my brother’s identical 3GS on 3.1.2, and his phone flies in comparison to mine! Opening my SMS’s, email client, and internet browser is painfully slow.
7. When calling a number, often my iPhone ‘waits’ for 20-30 seconds at the ‘calling mobile’ screen before I hear any tone from the phone indicating that it’s making the phone call. This never happened when it was running 3.1.3. This never happens on my brother’s identical 3GS.
8. My wireless performance has decreased. I have run bandwidth tests through my wireless router numerous times from www.speedtest.net, and compared them with my brother’s results performed right before and right after mine. I’ve run this test against my brother’s 3GS more than enough times to form a statistical picture. On the whole, my wireless performance is around 10-15% worse than his 3GS.
I work in the telco industry. I regularly chat with the radio engineers who fix up blackspots in 3G coverage for Telstra and 3 Australia. I know that the excuse offered, that of the iPhone software correctly reporting the signal now and not before is absolute rubbish. My 3GS used to work at my desk, between my offices, and at home flawlessly. It crawls along now, and it does not get the reception signal quality it used to.
I have wiped my iPhone several times now. I have put it into DFU mode and totally, cleanly installed the 4.1 software. I have done this 4 times now.
The clean installs have not fixed the issues above.
I would like to know what my options are for fixing these issues?
The prime questions I have are:
1. How can I roll back this accursed update?
2. Why would Apple release a software update(s) that hasn't been tested, and dramatically negatively impacts my beloved 3GS?
3. How can I get my brilliant 3GS +*back to the way it was*+!?!?
I’m very, very disappointed. And to be honest, the simple fact I’m taking the time out of my busy day to write this post means I’m very angry as well.
I know the problem with my 3GS *is not a hardware issue*. It's a software issue, and I'd like to know how I can get my old, fast, reliable, brilliant 3GS back.
Regards,
-J

The picture you show is normal. If you lightly double tap home button it activates reach ability mode for one handed operation. Nothing is wrong there. Another light double tap returns it to full screen. Do not press, just light touch the home button. AAs far as the other issues check the in call volume or ringer volume as it happens, just a possibility. as far as the banner not displayed on lock screen, as far as I know you need to have notifications set to alerts not banners in order for them to show up on the lock screen.

Wifi problems with my iPhone 4S since 6.1.2 update

I thought I had fixed this problem with my iPhone with a change in my home router settings but I did not. Since the 6.1.2 update I have had problems with my wifi connections. I have an Airport Extreme wifi network with multiple airport extremes extending the signal throughout our house. I am only able to communicate with the internet using our wifi network if I am in the same room as the main airport extreme. If I am a room away from any of the routers I get a message that my iPhone "can't join the wireless network". If I am in a room standing near one of the other airport extremes I can join the network, my iPhone will show that I am connected to the wifi network with a full signal but I have no communication with the internet. How I have determined this is by turning cellular off, wifi on & attempted to pull up a web page. When I do this anywhere other than by our main Airport Extreme I get the message that I am not connected to the Internet.
We have multiple other devices on our home wifi network, i.e. other iPhones, iPads, computers, etc. We aren't having this problem with any other of our devices. I am not sure if this is a software corruption issue or a hardware issue. I have not dropped my iPhone or done anything else to it that might have damaged it. I have tried resetting the wireless networks on my iPhone & that has not worked. I have read these boards & have tried the various suggestions, including the one about putting your iPhone in the freezer. (When I told my husband about trying the freezer suggestion he seriously thought I had lost my marbles...)
I would appreciate any other thoughts or suggestions that anyone has.

I have a diff issue!!! I has still able to connect to wifi network I had connected before the update to 6.1.2. But few days back when I tried connecting to a new wifi network and it kept saying incorrect password. The worst thing happened after I look up online for help that say try the " reset network setting" solution!! After I did the "reset network setting" step I bloody **** looses all connection to those network I had connected to before the update and I can't get back connection now. *** did apple still allow their users to update a software that has so many bugs. They should had prevent their users from updating right after they know there are bugssssss..!!!!!

Problems with Adobe Reader X since the 10.1 Update

Hello togehter.
Since the newest Update for the Adobe Reader X (Version 10.1, released 14.6.2011) a lot of our employers in our company have the problem that only the 1. PDF opens fast, the 2. PDF take 5 to 10 seconds to open, sometimes the hole programm crash down. A special effect is that when they open the 2. PDF instead of a doubleklick with drag an drop (the pick the file an bank it in the already open pdf) the pdf opens fast.
Facts:
-Doesn't matter if the file is big or not
-Doesn't matter if the file is local or on the netzwork
We have no idea why we have this problem!
Thank you for your help!
Kind regards,
Groli

Nobody have an idea?

My MacBook Pro will connect to WiFi but will not work in one location but will at others. I have the same issue with my IPhone 4S at the same location.

My MacBook Pro will connect to Wifi at one location (this is a secure location) but will not allow access to the internet. I will put in the password but will not display page. Other wifi capable devises do not have this issue but my Mac and my Iphone 4S will not work. I have tried restarting the router. All other wifi locations I have been to have not had this issue. Any suggestions? I am realtively new to Apple products (less than a year) so any advise is greatly appreciated.

The other devices that are working got on with the same password. It says it is connected. Just nothing works on the internet.

I have problems with Itunes in my iPhone 4S since the newest Itunes update

When the latest Itune released was suggested in my Itunes I pressed yes, and I was asked to reset my Iphone. I did that and lost all the contacts, emails,etc, but I recovered them through I cloud. What I did not recovered was anything I had in Itune in my Iphone which was not synced with my Imac, I had customised it. Now I can not sync with my Mac. I can not even play the songs I have in my iphone, there are greyed out and go by very quicky and I can not play them. I want to be able to sync back and forth playlists between my Mac Air and my Iphone. Thanks for your help.

Thanks i am glad its not just me getting this problem! It asks me to put it back to factory settings but hw do i do that when i cannot get it recognised in the first place? Any ideas please?

My iphone 4 did the iOS 5 update yesterday and I feel like my battery life is worse. I've only had the phone a week and I havent plugged it into itunes on my laptop at all or anything yet. Anything suggestions?

I did use a lot of apps today and such but I've only been using it for 12 hours and it's at 20%. Never had that happen. How can I fix this? Thanks

I got the same problem to. In 3mins I lost 8% of battery life I just used my phone for like a min. Had my phone for a month now and it started when I updated to ios5 and gone worse when updating to ios5.0.1.

I've had a bunch of issues with my iPhone 4 since the iOS 7 update
