IOS 5.1 on iphone 4s excel and rtf preview gone
Updated to ios 5.1 on my iphone 4s and now it is not possible to preview xls or rtf documents. My work auto-generates my schedule in these formats nightly and since the 5.1 update I can not open them. I updated my phone OTA, I have since reset it restored it and it still does not work. I have also retored from Itunes, it downloaded a 803MB file and restored again, but still no opening. When I click on the document it shows a white screen only, no error.
Did the 5.1 eliminate the 5.01 feature of opening these file types? PDF is opening correctly.
What are my options? Can I request a 5.01 downgrade?
After a call to apple and other troubleshooting, it is only XLS and RTF files with graphics generated from my work system. If I open them with my pc and re-save it opens well.
5.01 did not have this issue.
As a temp solution I downloaded save 2 pdf app. If I open it first and then long press the attachment and open with save 2 pdf, I can read the attachment. So I have a work around for now.

IOS 5 Update on iPhone 4 - All Purchased Apps are GONE!
Hi there,
I recently updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 5 and upon updating all my apps downloaded and purchased were no longer on my iPhone. I then went to my iTunes account to reload all my purchased apps and they were no longer listed under my accounts previous purchases. Has anyone had this issue happen- what can I do? I've lost probably 50$ worth of apps now and I am somewhat dissapointed with that!
Help?
ChrisLikely you have to Apple ID's and the one your iPhone is logged in with is differtn than the iTunes account where your apps and content are located.

here is the steps from it:
Instructions
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste the following text into the blank doc
echo off
net stop clipsvc
if "%1"=="" (
echo ==== BACKING UP LOCAL LICENSES
move %windir%\serviceprofiles\localservice\appdata\local\microsoft\clipsvc\tokens.dat %windir%\serviceprofiles\localservice\appdata\local\microsoft\clipsvc\tokens.bak

net start clipsvc
3. Save the file (somewhere easy to find) as "activelic.bat" (note the .bat extension)
4. Execute the batch file from an administrator privileged command prompt. (right click Start button (window logo) | select ‘Command Prompt (Admin)’) - see screenshot for example
5. Go to the Start menu and uninstall the App exhibiting the behavior.
6. Go to the Gray Store and reacquire the App. Launch it and it should now open, reacquire a new, valid, license.

Is there a way to make a smart "playlist" of specific books in my iTunes library, and copy ONLY THOSE books to an iOS device? I own an iPad and an iPhone but I want different books on each different device. When I've tried this, the iOS devices don't seem to respond.
There is no playlist for iBooks, butther eis nothing to preent you from choosing to download specific titles from itunes, or syncing just specific titles to an individual device.

cannot send or receive yahoo mail or gmail from iPhone . installed ios 6 recently. tried rebooting the phone and deleting the email account and adding again but nothing works ! can someone suggest a solution?
Not sure about yahoo, but for gmail, I done the following:
Set up using Exchange on iPhone, it'll keep prompting for password. On PC use captcha option, log in to gmail account from PC after completingg captcha option, enter password on iPhone.
See how that goes for gmail, let us know.
Hopefully someone will have fix for yahoo. -

After updating to ios 8 on my iphone 4s, all my music from iphone disappered. I tried all the suggestions, but I cant see music folder in the settings-general at all. I signed out of icloud as well, but still cannot sync with itune on my macbookpro. Can any one help?
Hello babichanjacob
Change how it syncs by enabling Manually manage music and videos, then you can drag and drop the music that you want on your iPhone. Revert it back to test to see if that resolves the issue.

Hello AlexCornejo,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
The screen you're seeing on your iPhone indicates it is in recovery mode. Now since the device is not appearing in iTunes on your PC, first follow the steps in this article:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
After following those steps, you should be able to restore your iPhone.
Take care,

Hi everyone! I tried to install the new iOs 7 on my iphone 4, but it wasn't completed (showing error 4005). Now, my iphone is stuck on the itunes' logo with the usb cord, and I can't use my phone. And itunes doesn't detect my iphone when I connect it on my computer, so I can't put it in recovery mode or someting like that... What can I do?? I tried everything they tell me to do in the apple support but nothing seems to work. Thank you!
No problem, glad to help!
Update: my PC USB hub was connected to a USB 3 port, I connected the 30 pin cable directly to my PC, And the restore worked just fine. Restored phone from iCloud backup and seems to be working fine. -
I downloaded ios 7 on my iphone 4s and cant play itunes from my iphone to my speakers through airport utility. it shows im connected thro wifii. i can play the speakers wirelessly from itunes on my computer so i know its my phone since ios 7 downloaded. even the icons on the song that turn on the speakers are missing. what do i have to do to get it back? Ive deleted airport utility and reinstalled it. i shutdown my phone and the airport base and wifii and restarted everything. nothing seems to b helping.
I just encountered this problem for the first time and stumbled upon this forum to find a solution. I played around with it a bit and it seems that if you slide your finger from the bottom up, you will come upon that new screen that will allow you to do various functions with your phone (put it in airport mode, lock, etc.), you can select your Airport from this screen and play your music wirelessly from your phone; at least this was my experience. Hope this helps!
