IOS 5 and Location service

I just installed the new software on my Iphone 4. It was my understanding from what I have been reading that I could set different vibration alerts for each of my email accounts and my messages. When I looked at the features of the new software it said I could do this also. However I cannot figure out how to accomplish this. Hopefully someone can help.
Also no matter what I do and set I cannot get the weather on the drop down to change with my location. I had the Genius bar set it for me but still not following me to different areas..What can I do?

Customer Vibrations can only be configured for Contacts.
To enable the feature, first head to Settings, then General, then Accessibility.
Turn on Customized Vibrations, then find a contact and tap "Edit."
Scroll down and tap "Vibration," then scroll down and tap "Create New Vibration."

  • Traffic not showing in Notifications IOS 7. I have all turned on in notifications and location services allowed in Maps. I have been all over internet, followed set up instructions, even re-set settings (fixed weather not showing) but still no traffic?

    I should clarify: I didn't know it fell out, but I check my phone often enough that there were only about 10 minutes between when I last put it in my pocket and then realized it wasn't there.
    We asked everyone around us if they saw it, and like 10 people were helping us look. But my husband used Find My iPhone and the Prey app right away when we realized it was missing (again, at most 15 minutes from the last time I used it) and it was already in offline / "cannot locate" mode.

  • IOS 7 location services wont turn on.

    IOS 7 location services wont turn on on my iphone 5. It was on before I upgraded to iOS 7 but now it is off and greyed out. Any ideas what may be wrong?

    I had this problem and solved it by changing restrictions on Location Services from Settings>General>Restrictions>Location Services

  • TS4006 "Find my IPhone" app on my iPad can't even locate the iPad I'm using. And I'm on a WiFi network and location services are turned on. Ideas?

    I'm using the "Find my IPhone" app on my iPad and it can't even locate the iPad I'm using, not to mention the iPhone I'm looking for. They are both listed as devises, it just says they're both offline, which I know is wrong. I'm on a WiFi network and location services are turned on. Ideas?

    Is Settings > Privacy > Location Services > Find My iPad turned ON?

  • 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,

    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.

  • IOS 7 Location Services

    iPhone 5, iOS 7, no apps running in background, leave it locked for a bit. Press the Home button to check the time. The location services arrow appears at the upper-right corner momentarily and disappears.
    My question, what has changed in iOS 7 that makes my phone need to check my location just because I'm checking the time or just unlocking it?
    This is unnecessary battery drain. If there's no way to stop this, then it's also bad design.

    Thank you very much. Just about the time I got the notification of your response, I found it after some relentless, angry digging in Settings.

  • IOS 8 Location Services

    In iOS7  a user could set location services to standby/disable when the app was minimized.  Apple has taken this feature away for most applications.  Now you only get two choices ("Always" or "Never").  When set to always, an application like Waze or Trapster and many more will use your position EVEN WHEN THE APPLICATION HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE tray.  When set to NEVER you have to go in and manually turn it back on to use the applications' location services, then off again when done.   Not only is this an personal invasion of privacy, it causes the excessive battery drain.
    Question: Am I missing a setting that will allow me to disable location services when the app is not in use in iOS8?
    Please join me in spreading the word and in making sure apple knows they need to re-enable the ability to disable location services in iOS8 when the App is not being used.

    Try this.  I had a different problem but it might help:
    settings --> privacy --> location services
    scroll the the very bottom and click on System Services
    now try disabling/enabling the services in here.

  • No off switch for diagnostic usage and location services

    When you click on diagnostic usage in settings there is a link to a privacy statement. It says you can turn off location sevices in diagnostic usage by going to setting locations system services. Guess what there is no entry for diagnostic usage. So either you use diagnostic usage with location or not at all. Why???
    Also what is iAds???

    I copied this from this site.
    http://www.everythingicafe.com/forum/threads/what-is-the-location-based-iads-on- my-ip4s-for.81572/
    This from Wikipedia:
    iAd is a mobile advertising platform developed by Apple Inc. for its iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad line of mobile devices allowing third-party developers to directly embed advertisements into their applications. Announced on April 8, 2010, iAd is part of Apple's iOS 4, originally stated for release on June 21, 2010, the actual date change to July 1, 2010 was announced at Apple's June 7, 2010 keynote, with an iPad version appearing in the fall. Hosted and sold by Apple, the iAd platform is expected to compete with Google's AdMob mobile advertising service.
    Similar to AdMob, iAd facilitates integrating advertisements into applications sold on the iOS App Store. If the user taps on an iAd banner, a full-screen advertisement appears within the application, unlike other ads that send the user into theSafari web browser. Ads are promised to be more interactive than on other advertising services, and users will able to close them at any time, returning to where they left their app. Apple CEO Steve Jobs has indicated that Apple will retain 40% of the ad revenue, in line with what he called "industry standard", with the other 60% going to the developers. iAd is expected to benefit free applications as well.
    Apparently you are correct about that diagnostics setting. I can't find it either - but I have a tendency to not be very observant! :)

  • Restriction code and location services.

  • Reception, and location services

    Omg I am in the middle of Houston medical center and many other places around it. My cell services for Google maps for example is something I need dearly for my job and I barely get service. It's ridiculous, I see why Verizon is on top att does suckered I regret coming to this service

    Settings/General/Network/3G toggle
    I turned my 3G off as well when not playing with the internet. It seems to block my phone calls because my work called me and I didn't know. Then the voice mail came on when the 3G was disabled.

  • Ios 4.2.1 Location service of Maps not working offline

    after upgrade to ios 4.2.1. i just checked location service of Maps with cellular data 'off'/3g off/wifi off iphone was unable to drop pin to current location using maps application .is their any configuration change with this ios 4.2.1 upgrade?

    Turn off your wifi and your location service, but keep your cellular on, You will be able to find your coordinates on the map but not so accurate, You will miss even the rotate on the X axis, The only key player here is your LOCATION SERVICE under GENERAL, the location service works in 2D way, It locates your position according to X & Y axis, For sure this is with the help of the satellite, I have find my iPhone app and it does not interfere with the map app or any navigation app i have, All these app actually uses the LOCATION SERVICE if it's enabled. You can go ahead and turn off your cellular and your wifi but keep your location service on, you will find that on the map your phone will rotate when ever you rotate your phone in a 360 degrees circle, but you will miss the exact names and coordinates of your position, Cellular data gives you that, Names and addresses of where you are and location services gives or tells you where on earth you are.

  • Location services not allowed for reminders iOS 8.1

    Hello!
    just noticed there isn't trigger to turn on location services for reminders app on my iPad.
    So seems I can't use the location based reminders on my iPad, isn't it?

    I have a 3rd-gen iPad WiFi + Cellular right here with me and location services are supposed to work even when Cellular Data is turned off and there's no SIM card installed. From your screenshot, it looks like location services are indeed working, but the Reminders app is not listed.
    I can tell you that on my older 3rd-gen iPad, it looks exactly the same: Reminders is missing from the location services list and I can't schedule location-based reminders. And this iPad has just been setup as a new iPad (not restored from a backup) using iOS 8.1. So it doesn't appear to be a settings issue.
    For testing, I've re-inserted the SIM card that I had already removed from this older iPad, unlocked the SIM and restarted iPad. But no dice - Reminders is still unable to use location services. I would report this to Apple support, maybe it's a bug that can be resolved.
