ICloud grayed out on iPhone 4 running IOS 5

On my iPhone 4 running IOS 5, in settings, I can not tap iCloud or Twitter because they are gray. I just installed IOS5 last night and it did not ask me to set up iCloud. Is iCloud only avaialble on the 4S? Why would they be gray? How do I fix it?

I had this question too, but after hours of searching on here I found it!! You likely have your "restrictions" on to have things disabled. Turn them off (or enabled).

Bought iPhone 6 yesterday. Also bought dock works with iPhone 5/5s. And cord connecting iPhone 6 to USB port on car stereo. No sound comes out of dock or car stereo. In store today, iPhone 5 running ios 8 worked on dock, not iPhone 6. When Apple fix?

I bought an iPhone 6 yesterday. I also bought a stereo dock that works with iPhone 5/5s. And a cord to connect iPhone 6 to USB port on my car stereo. No sound comes out of the stereo dock or car stereo. In Best Buy today, Sales Associate tried his iPhone 5 running iOS 8 on a stereo dock. It worked, but my iPhone 6 didn't. When will Apple fix this problem? Or is Apple pushing everyone to Bluetooth?

The iPod feature that plays through USB in my car does not work with my iPhone 6 either. I called AppleCare and they said that the car audio system will need a firmware update. Don't know if Apple is just passing the buck, but that is what I was told. Thank you for posting. I know now that I am not the only one. Thanks also for posting about the iPhone 5 running iOS 8. I gave away my iPhone 5 to a friend so I wasn't sure whether this is an iOS 8 issue or an iPhone 6 issue and your experience seems to confirm that it is a problem with iPhone 6. I guess I will just be using Bluetooth in my car, at least for now.

HT202794 How come iMovie shows as $4.99 on my iPhone 5S running iOS 7.0.4?

How come iMovie shows as $4.99 on my iPhone 5S running iOS 7.0.4? It should show up as free.

Log out & in didn't help, but thanks for the suggestion.
I also have a new iPad Air which did advertise iMovie as free. After downloading to the iPad, I was able to download the app free from iCloud on iPhone.

Can I restore my info to a new iPhone 6 plus using a backup of an iPhone 4s running iOS 7.1.2?

Just bought a new phone and want to import all my app settings and information. I have heard all the complaints about iPhone 4s running iOS 8 and don't want to update until I have it preinstalled on a new 6+.
Can I restore my info to a new iPhone 6 plus using a backup of an iPhone 4s running iOS 7.1.2?
or would I have to upgrade my 4S to iOS 8, backup, and then restore the new phone. I need to ensure that my 4S powers on and works so I can receive trade in credit for it (~$200), so this is worth a bit to ensure that my 4S stays functional.
Thanks

You can load a backup from an earlier iOS version onto a device with a later iOS version, but not the other way around.
If you're going to do this, I'd recommend doing a backup of your 4s to your computer (not iCloud) and load the backup onto the 6+ from the computer. You can try an iCloud backup/installation, but also do a local backup in case something goes wrong. A local backup is more comprehensive than an iCloud backup, and in my experience it loads more reliably.

Why does deleting a calendar appointment on an iPhone 5 running iOS 6.0.2 not send a cancellation notice to attendees?

The company I work for runs Microsoft Exchange 2010 servers on premise. I have an Exchange account configured on my iPhone 5 running iOS 6.0.2. I am finding that if I choose to Delete an event from the Calender app on the iphone, the event is being removed from the iphone, and from the Exchange server, but the other people that are invited to the meeting are not receiving cancellation notices, nor is the event being deleted from their Exchange calendars. Why not?

I had the same experience with a new iPhone 5 that I bought last week. Did not have a chance to measure battery life before the 6.0.2 upgrade installed but I set up my phone exactly like my 4S and immediately started running out of power after short periods. Went to Xmas get together with fully charged 5 and 4S. Heading home the iPhone 5 shut down for low battery and the 4S had 65% power. Both phones had two half phone calls on then and no data usage.
That night I fully charged the iPhone 5 and, without lighting it up, put it on my night table. Next morning I picked it up and looked at battery indicator and I had 42% charge with NO activity!
Tried it again next night and wound up with 37% charge. (Slept longer).
Today I called the carrier and reactivated the 4S. Took the 5 to Apple Store and they kindly gave me choice of new replacement phone or refund. I took the refund. Uniquely, the Apple Store said it was Verizon CDMA phones that were coming back.
The are other strings on this with temporary solutions, but from my experience with 7 firmware changes on an HTC 4G phone the problem will continue because the solution will be hardware caused. We are in the days where RTM means Rush to Market - not Release To Manufacturing.
I fear the only solution is to either wait for the next model (I did not notice a really major change in performance over the 4S in LTE heavy Seattle area) - or switch to another manufacturer.
It might be useful for these forums to indicate if you have a GSM or CDMA phone to see which have more problems.
Discouraged....

Is there a fix for the incompatibility issue between iphone 5c running ios 7 and sentra bluetooth?

So i can pair my iphone 5c running ios 7 successfully with my 2012 sentra, bluetooth, however when placing and receiving calls, I hear a clicking, constant and unnverving. My wife's LG Cosmos works without a hitch. I can use it to make calls, etc through my nav system (may have to switch until there is a fix to iphone 5c). The nissan website indicates that compatible iphones go up to iphone 5. Anyone know of a fix for ios 7, iphone 5c? or any other workaround.
Thanks.

I ended up getting a new phone, straight through Apple. I called their technical support and went through all he basics again and they decided to replace it. Was a pretty quick process - after defaulting and resetting the whole phone (about 2 hours), I called them back to inform that there was no change, so they set up the order.
I had to give my CC# so they could hold a charge on it (in case I didn't send my old phone bach, which they sent me a pre-posted package to send it in anyway). Had a brand new iPhone 4S in my hands in 4 days, which was pretty decent. I had uploaded everything previously to iCloud, so setting up the new phone was a snap.
Only thing I really didn't like was they charged me almost 30 bucks for shipping or processing, or something. Not so sure that should have been my responsibility after spending so much on a brand new product, only to have to have it warrantied after, like, a month.

Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
Have a nice day,
Mario

How do you remove camera icon on lock screen on iPhone 5 running iOS 7

How do you remove camera icon on iPhone 5 running iOS 7

I was on a long call. I locked the phone and slipped it in my pocket. Apparently the lock screen camera had activated though it had not taken any shots . The result was post my 40 odd minute call when I pulled the phone out to disconnect I discovered the camera was active and phone was hot and battery had reduced for 92% to around 50%. This seems a serious flaw in design...

IPHONE 5 RUNNING IOS 6.1.4 WON'T LET ME UPDATE TO IOS.7

Hi, I have an iPhone 5 running IOS 6.1.4 and was wanting to update to IOS.7 wirelessly but when I go into Software Update it tells me this software is up to date and doesn't give me any option to update to IOS 7. I know the software has been released from today so was wondering why I can't update.
Thanks for your help in advance.

I feel silly now, I just looked it up and it won't be released until 6pm my time.
Thanks for your help!

IPhone 4S running iOS 5.1.1 is not recognised by iTunes 10.6.3

Hi all,
When I plug my iPhone 4S into my Mac Book Pro running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4, iTunes 10.6.3 does not recognise the device. The iPhone is running iOS 5.1.1.
I have read the steps within http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 and http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1747 (for Mac OS X 10.6.8 or Earlier) and unfortunately they do not help.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you
Adrian

Restore the phone as New, and do not reload your backup. If you still have a problem with it you have a hardware problem.

Messy Push Notifications on iPhone 4 running iOS 6.0.1

Well guys, I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 6.0.1. Initially push notifications for all apps worked fine. I never missed a notification on any of the apps especially Facebook. I even got every notification about friends and pages I have liked on facebook. Recently, I only started getting sound notifications (no banners no alerts) for pages or friends I had subscribed to. Other notifications worked fine like Timeline posts, messages, friend requests, events e.t.c But recently even those notifications stopped working and not only for facebook but a few of the other apps as well. One of the weirdest things was that I still seem to be getting some notifications when my device is an unlocked state. But when my device is locked I am hardly getting any notifications for apps like Facebook and Twitter. Any one here who has encountered the same problem? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I might do that eventually but right now I have so much app data and settings and configurations on it I cant risk changing the iOS because i will lose most of it that way. Isn't there a way of resetting all the Push notifications settings and preferences in order to get working again from scratch?

ICal calendars not syncing with iPhone 4 running iOS 4.0.2

I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 4.0.2
I'm using iCal on my MBP running Mac OS 10.6.4
I have a MobileMe account.
Never had an issue with calendars syncing with the iPhone previously.
I am using MobileMe Calendar Beta. This now displays my calendars in iCal under my MobileMe account name (eg. [email protected]) rather than the 'On My Mac' section that it use to.
I have five separate calendars in iCal on the Mac all named appropriately (eg. Work, Personal etc.) and all that appears on the iPhone is one calendar named 'Calendar' with no events in it??
I've used MobileMe (.Mac) and iPhone syncing for years and have them set up as I always have.
Does anyone have the same issues? Does anyone have any constructive advise?
Thanks
Jeff
