IOS 5.0.1 bugs for location services

Since I've updated to ios 5.0.1, every time I use safari, I see that location service is on. I go to settings to find out which app is using it, by the presence of the purple arrow, and it turns out that it is the compass calibration under system services.
Why is this happening now? I guess I could just turn it off...seems strange. This didn't happen before the update.

No, it will not. It must be the version specifically for the iPod Touch. On top of that you must have a 3G or 4G iPod Touch in order to even install iOS 5 onto it.

HT201365 I recently lost my iphone 4s, ios 7, find my iphone on, location services off, icloud shows device offline. Personal Information in iphone(pics, docs) compromised?Please Help.

Hello,
I recently got my iphone stolen. Its a 4S with IOS 7. Find my iphone was on. Location services were off. After stolen, went to icloud find my iphone, device was listed but offline. I put it in lost mode and a message. Put a passcode too. It said lost mode pending. After several hours, put it in erase mode. Now it says erase pending. Unfortunately there was no passcode for home screen when it was stolen. I called my iphone several times, it went straight to voicemail. I did not report the iphone stolen yet because i want my device erased. It does not erase if no internet.
My question is this. If the iphone was turned off, can they turn it on, disable cellular data (wifi was off before stolen) and still browse the iphone with no internet connection? Pictures, notes, pdf files, text messages being accessed? Also, if they remove sim card, will activation lock still work wirth no cellular data or internet connection?
Thank you for your help.

Not if you had a screen passcode set, no, they can't. If you didn't set a screen passcode, then they can most certainly get into your iPhone and access your information.
Also, if they remove sim card, will activation lock still work wirth no cellular data or internet connection?
Activation Lock will remain no matter what they do to the iPhone.
Regards.

Ios 5 possible firmware bug for iPhone 4; Voice command/text-to-speech doesn't work properly.

I upgraded an AT&T and Verizon iPhone 4 to the ios 5 firmware, and I am having the same exact issues for both phones. When using the voice command a few times, the audio voice does not come through the "speaker" (referring to the speaker located at the bottom of the phone). Instead, the audio voice goes through the receiver which is on the front face of the phone, on the right of the camera.
For example, say you want to use the voice command to dial a phone number. You would enable voice command by depressing and holding down the "Home" button and give the command "dial...1-800-452-3456", the phone would then repeat the phone number back to you through the "speaker". However, when I did this a few times, the voice instantly goes to the receiver instead. I found no way to fix this problem. I tried the following and none of these solutions worked:
Turned the phone off and back on again
Hard reset (held down the Home and Lock button for 10 seconds)
Restored the phone, and set the phone up as a "new iPhone" instead of restoring from back up
After trying to restore both iPhones and still have the same issue, I made an appointment to visit Apple. I took the Verizon iPhone 4 to Apple, and the employees handed over a refurbished iphone in hopes to solve this issue. However, this refurbished phone still had the same exact issue.

Of course I checked my apps library and found nothing. However I'm looking at the status while sync is processing, I'm 100% sure that app is not synced to my iTunes library
Yep, I can always manually "transfer purchases" to my iTunes library. But this is not the point. On my old iPhone 4 and new iPad (3rd gen), it will sync all newly installed apps from my iOS devices to my iTunes library, no need to click "Transfer Purchases" again.

IOS static destination Port NAT for Proxy-Service

HTTP Internet-traffic (tcp 80) from Clients connected to interface1 (10.0.0.0/8) sould be transfered/ scaned via Proxy-Server(192.168.0.1) on interface2 which acts on Port tcp 8080.
HTTP Traffic form the clients is routed via PBR to the Proxy.
But I don`t know how to nat the detination-port from the clients (tcp 80) to the service-port used by proxy (8080) WITHOUT natting the original source- and destination-address.

object network nec1100_cpu
host 192.168.0.201
nat (inside,outside) static my-public-IP service udp 5060, 5080 5081
Or you can also do this in the same way.
object network nec1100_cpu
host 192.168.0.201
nat (inside,outside) static my-public-IP
Control udp port via the ACL on the outside interface.
Hope this helps.
thanks

Why is "genius for apps" using location services?

I noticed that in iOS 6, that there is now a "genius for apps" entry under the location -> system services. Every time I go in there it shows as having been recently used (purple), despite me not having used the App Store genius recently. It does this on both my iPad and iPhone.
What exactly is triggering this? Why does app genius need location services? Could this explain the poor battery life I'm seeing under iOS 6?

Basilisk wrote:
When I open iMovie it creates an alert that says iMovie cannot access the photos or videos on the iPad without Location Services being switched on. [...]
Anyway, it gives some instructions on how to change the settings to enable Location Services for iMovie, but none of the things it says to do appear in Settings. I can't enable Location Services for iMovie in Settings - Location Services, or in Settings - iMovie. I can enable the camera for Location Services, but that makes no difference to iMovie which continues to refuse to edit anything on the iPad.
The short answer is try connecting the iPad to a computer and doing the initial iPad set-up/registration via iTunes. (Maybe you can do the same thing via iTunes on the iPad.)
I had the same problem Basilisk describes, on a brand new iPad. I purchased iMovie through the App Store (directly on the iPad), but couldn't do anything with it due to the catch-22 described above. iMovie did not appear under Settings > Location Services so I could not turn on location service for iMovie.
Subsequently, I connected the iPad to my iMac and went through the first-time set-up of the iPad by iTunes. I selected some music albums and photo albums to sync to the iPad.
Back on the iPad, iMovie still did not appear in Settings > Location Services, BUT, now when I launched iMove a different dialog box appeared. Paraphrasing, it said, "iMovie wants to use your current location. This will allow iMovie to use location information in your photos and videos. Don't Allow/ Allow."
I tapped "Allow" (grudgingly) and iMovie was now usable, and it now appeared in under Locations Services.
The catch-22 situation is a bug. If the iPad setup via iTunes is indeed necessary to get around the impasse, nothing tells the user that.

Location services not working after iOS 6 update (WiFi only)

After updating my iPad (3 & WiFi only) to iOS 6 the location services no longer work. This stops some apps from working. It was fine before the update. Does anyone have a fix for this yet? I know others have been having the same problem.

Before IOS 4 iPad and iPhone used Google and Skyhook databases for position info. In April Apple switched to using it's own in house database for location services. In the past one could register the MAC address and position of a router or access point with Skyhook and within 2 to 3 weeks any device with location services could find itself. Now with Apple handling it's own position database and no way to register an access point or router it is hit or miss as to whether an iPad or iPhone can find itself using WIFI only. If you live in a rural area you are less likely to have location services work. Hopefully Apple will emulate Skyhook in future by allowing users to register their access points or router's location in their data base. Until then those of us in rural areas are out of luck. Cheers

Disable Location Services - iOS, Intune MDM

Hi
I'm trying to find a way to prevent users from being able to change their location services options.
I know there's an option to do it on an iOS device manually with a restriction \ parental control on the "Location Services" area with a passcode.
my goal is to do the same from the MDM.
I have Apple Configurator up and running and I have an Intune account, but I couldn't find any way to do it from any of them :/
I even tried to deploy a profile with the Apple Configurator but there's no option for "location services". I guess it's because users need to first define their Location once and only then apply the restriction. I don't mind deploying all the
devices the location, as they're all from the same country
any original idea would be great!
Tamir Levy

I know this is old but I’m trying to clean up old posts. Did you ever solve this? If so it would be good if you could post the solution to assist others. If not, at this stage,
as nobody has answered, I would recommend that you call Intune support.
You will find your local Intune support number here

Is there a way to get a 'Location services' toggle in the new IOS 7.0 'swipe up' options?

I used to have location services toggle in SB settings as i use my iPhone for Sat Nav so regularly switch the location services off and on
But the new IOS 7.0 doesnt have a location services' toggle
is there a way to put this toggle on the swipe up menu?
Or is there a shortcut to turn the location services on and off, instead of going to Settings, Privacy then location services, then off/on

The Control Center is not user adjustable. Location services, if you're not actively navigating, are not an incredibly huge battery drain, for what it's worth.

The problem with ALAssetsLibrary and Location Services

I have developed a photo app for the iPhone, released a couple of days ago, that's doing rather good in the App Store, but would probably do a lot better if it weren't for the negative reviews saying that they can't understand why the app wants access to Location Services to be able to select photos from the photo gallery.
The app lets users select photos from their gallery, which they then can style and edit in different ways. To do this I use the ALAssetsLibrary class. So far so good. The problem with the ALAssetsLibrary class is that if I wish to use it to access photos on the device, the user must give the app access to Location Services, as well. Why, you ask? Well, because photos in the gallery might possibly include information on when and where the photo was taken. If the user doesn't give the app access to Location Services, the app won't be able to access the photos at all.
In my app I'm not interested in the location services data at all - I just want the user to be able to select photos. But as far as I know there is just no way to read photos without Location Services enabled. As a developer I can sort of buy this limitation - because I understand why it exists - but apparently my users can not. And as a user myself I have to agree with them. Why on earth do they/I have to allow the app to access Location services for me to be able to select photos? It doesn't make sense!
At the moment I'm getting a lot of negative reviews saying "I downloaded and deleted. The app wants access to Location Services when I try to select a photo. This seems fishy. Don't download it". I agree. It DOES seem fishy, but I couldn't care less about their location data, and although I try to inform the user about this in the app, a lot of people doesn't seem to care, or understand why this is the way it is.
So, what's the point of this rant? Well, to start with, wouldn't it be better if iOS asked something like "This app needs access to your photos" instead of "This app needs access to your location", when using the ALAssetsLibrary?
Also, instead of using the ALAssetsLibrary I could have used the UIImagePickerController - if only it had supported landscape orientation. Why, why, WHY doesn't it? My app is landscape only, and therefore I had to build my own image picker functionality, instead of using the default one. Portrait only is a very stupid limitation, if you ask me.
Finally, is there SOME way at all to access the photos on the device without requiring Location Services as well?
Thank you for listening,
Andreas Lindahl

Unfortunately, there is no way to directly access the photo library without prompting the user for Location Services permission. I just posted an article on my blog about this very issue (and referenced your post): http://blog.mikeswanson.com/post/18269837647/location-services. I hope that this situation can be improved in a future release of iOS.

I can't activate location services

After i upgraded my 3gs to ios 5, i can't activate location services. Can anyone help?

I had the same issue with one of the three iPhones I updated on Wednesday. There are many processes that are working for people including:
- Resetting the device several times
- Toggling the "Dont' Allow Changes" setting under "Restrictions --> Location Services"
- Disabling Restrictions altogether.
- Restoring from backup
I was able to restore location services by selecting "Reset" and choosing "Erase All Content and Settings" to set the phone up as new. When the phone resets and goes through the setup process, I was given the option to turn on location services. I then restored from backup and was good to go.
Some people have been able to resolve the issue by resetting but only using "Reset All Settings" without having to erase all content, but that did not work for me. It took a while to get everything back to normal, but it is good to know that there was a somewhat simple solution.

Imessage location service not accurate

i keep my location service on indefinitely but my phone is always charged. I forgot to charge it a few days ago and when it died the location showed I was somewhere completely different then where I was. Has this happened to anyone? What causes that?

You may need to read the article for location service: iOS 6: Understanding Location Services - Apple Support

I cannot find the location services in the general settings

After the forced change over to IOS 6 it asked during the setup which apps would be used for location services. I checked only the Maps as I do not like all the different programs watching me. I went to use several that I pick and choose the locator service that is enabled and there is no "location services" under the general settings.

You will find it under new application calls praivecy through setting

Location Service always on

I did the update to iOS 7.1 last night and Location Services won't turn off unless I shut it down completely. It used to be that if an app was using location services, I would force close the app and GPS/Location Services would turn off. Now, even if I force close ALL apps, Location Services continues to run. I don't want to have to go to Services > Privacy > Location Services and turn it on every time. That's ridiculous and makes apps using Location Services not worth using.
Does anyone know if there's a way to get back to the way it was prior to the update or if Apple is going to fix this?
Thanks!

Mine was yahoo weather as well. I just deleted the app. I have so many other weather apps. But same here you guys. I close every app from running in the background and the location icon still comes on (Draining battery life)... I think its part of this updated iBeacon and what they call a geofence?
I dont like it.
I dont have google now...
im going to the APPLE STORE for a GENUIS consult tomorrow... Ill ask

Location Services deactivated

Hi, when I go to Settings, Privacy, I note that my Location Services is set at "ON". When I tap on the Location Services, everything is greyed and I am unable to change it to off; or change the individual settings for the apps. System Services are all greyed too. What should I do so I can change the settings again? Please help.
Thank you.

Hello gpliew,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like restrictions may be enabled on your device. There is an option to disable changes for Location Services in the restrictions settings. You can check to see if restrictions are enabled in Settings > General > Restrictions. A restrictions passcode may have been setup at one point, and you will have to enter this passcode to disable restrictions.
For more information, please see the following resource:
