IOS 5 update Message issues

I recently updated to iOS5 on the iphone 4. When I upgraded I noticed two main issues... Firstly, e-mails that I deleted over the past few months were showing up as unread in my inbox and secondly text messages that I wanted to keep were missing. Is this a know issue? Is there a way to retrieve my missing SMS messages? I also seem to be losing my carrier network signal more frequently.
Thanks,
Patrick

Note on point 1:
This is the issue with contact numbers as I further found out:
The problem basically with messages and calls.
Adding a country code to a contact number will show contact name in messages but not in calls coming therefrom.
Removing the country code from the contact number, will show only phone number in calls but not in messages where I only get the number without the name!
To overcome this problem, I have to register the same number for each contact twice, one with a country code and the other without! Duplicating numbers for each contact obviously is not the right solution.

    My friend has sold me her Ipad 1. iOS 5.1.1 already updated.
    When I use my Apple ID, i cannot even sign into the App store on the Ipad.  Keeps saying "iOS update required" though the ipad is updated. I have changed regions on Apple ID with no luck. 
    This error also occurs when on the Ipad i try to setup automatic downloading.  She can use her Apple ID no problem.  Please help!

  • Issue since iOS Update with TomTom Carkit

    Hardware:
    iPhone 4, iOS latest Patchlevel
    TomTom Navigation CarKit with integrated Speaker, GPS and Bluetooth connection
    I have got the following issue since the iOS Update to 6.x
    integrated CarKit Speaker is no longer in use=> After receiving an Email with notification signal the speaker becomes active => Makes the usage of a Navigation Software a little more complicated without spoken notifications
    Continuos Bluetooth Connection loss to the dock, sometimes followed by the message: Charging with this device is not supported! Could only be solved with undocking/docking the iPhone => complicated during driving on a motorway!
    Some apps are no longer able to start (mostly games for my kids).
    Has anyone an idea?

    Have you contacted Honda? Is there a firmware update for the car system?
    Sometimes this works:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
      - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    Sometimes an iOS updates breaks compatibility and y have to air for a firmware update to the car system or iOS update

  • 5s iOS 8 update: Messages

    I just updated to iOS 8 And it seems that my search bar in my Messages is not working well unlike before the update. When i try looking for an old conversation which i know is still saved there it doesn't come out anymore. What do I do?
    also, i have never seen facetime ever since i got this phone. it's bought in qatar btw.

    Hi mbj470,
    Lets see if we can get you fixed by trying to resolve your update issues first. If you cannot update your iPhone over the air, then I would try updating using iTunes. If you can get your iPhone up to date, then that may take care of your iMessage issues. If not, then I have also provided troubleshooting messages article as well.

  • HT4623 i have 4s and the operating system is iOS 5.1.1  got the update message of iOS 6. if update the iOS 6, other functions will work unchanging?

    I have apple 4s and the operating system is iOS 5.1.1  got the update message of iOS 6. if update the iOS 6, other functions will work unchanging?

    What other functions?
    There have been some wifi related issues reported with the 4S being updated to IOS 6. There is no turning back once you update so keep that in mind.
    I recommend updating via iTunes so that you make a backup of all your data. You may want to make an iCloud backup as well.
    Other than that, I don't understand what other functions you are concerned about?

  • After iOS update, my iTunes no longer sync 'ERROR MESSAGE'

    After the new iOS update on my phone, my iTunes on my MAC will not sync. The error message I receive says I need to update iTunes, but it's already updated to the last version and there are no updates available when I go thru the iTunes menu.  HELP!

    Apple fans. Don't fret. I struggled with this since Saturday when I got my new phone. im pretty tech savvy with a background in computers and I'm a mechanic by trade so i generally know how things work and figure out anything. After trying everything you all have probaby tried as well I did some comparisons to my wife's phone. I paid all three of our cars to her phone easily. One is a Honda hand free link, the other a Hyundai sonata system and the last a pioneer aftermarket Bluetooth with streaming,avrcp etc. after her iPhone 6 128gb connected and worked flawlessly, I narrowed the problem down to my phone specifically. It's not the phone, it's not the ios8, it's not your car. It's your settings. All I did was reset network settings and bam. Problem fixed. You see I messeed with a bunch of stuff in the beginning trying to avoI'd data overage and must have turned something off by mistake. Another theroy I have is my iPhone 5 setting were copied over in the process of migration and they were maybe incompatible with the iPhone 6 itself. Either way post back and let me know if this helps

  • Trying to update my iPhone 4 from iOS 5.1.1 to 6.1 via iTunes.When I click the "Update" button, I just get a message saying the iTunes is at the current version (6.1), but no action re the iOS update.

    I'm trying to update my iPhone 4 from iOS 5.1.1 to 6.1. When I try to do this using iTunes on my MacBook Pro (OS X v 10.5.8), with my iPhone in its cradle, clicking the "Update" button in Tunes gets a message saying "This version of iTunes (10.6.1) is the current version." I can't get the iOS update to download.
    When I try to update to the iPhone directly, I get a message saying "iOS 6.0.1 failed verification because you are no longer connected to the Internet" at the Verifying Update step. I noticed that this message refers to iOS 6.0.1, even though I want to update to 6.1. It is possible that, a few weeks ago, I may have downloaded but not installed v 6.0.1.
    Thanks for any help with this problem

    I tried powering down and re-starting the iPhone (as suggested at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275). This seems to have cleared the "...not connected to the Internet" problem, and iOS 6.1 is now in the process of downloading.
    Thanks very much for your feedback.

  • HI, Im using Iphone 4 and i recently got my IOS updated to IOS7 and  now im getting the error message as "PDP authentication failure" Im using Aircel carrier.

    HI, Im using Iphone 4 and i recently got my IOS updated to IOS7 and  now im getting the error message as "PDP authentication failure" Im using Aircel carrier.
    Please let me know how to fix this issue

    update...
    I am not one to give up. So I called AT&T today. Now they are telling me they canceled my order because they were unable to fulfill my order. Basically, AT&T told me they sold out so they canceled my order so I can proceed to reorder again. It took them 4 days to realize this. I will be lucky if I get a new phone by Christmas. I am sure they will find a way to cancel my order again.
    Again, I argued, how is this my fault. I placed my order at the store around 11 a.m. Pacific time. My friend ordered his phone online sometime after me. He got his but my order was canceled. AT&T tried to explain to me that they sold over 600,000 phones, almost 500 per minute during there peak. Again, I asked, how this was my fault.
    I can understand over selling the phone. It is a great product. There is no reason to cancel my order. You adjust my order and tell me you will let me know when my phone will be in. I would have been mad that my phone was going to be late but I would have survived. At least I would be getting one.
    At this point, I have no order and AT&T or Apple website will allow me to order one. I just want to get in the QUEUE for one.
    Frustrated.

    All of us here are users just like you. We have no inside info of when Apple products or operating system updates/upgrades will be released. The next iOS may not even change the issue you have.

  • IPad Reply box disappears behind keyboard as I'm typing which, if a long messages, means I'm typing "blind". This started with the last IOS update. How do allow the writing screen scroll up?

    IiPad reply screen disappears behind keyboard. This happens on a long message in email and I need to type "blind" if the message is even medium long. How do I get the typed area to scroll up as it did before the latest IOS update?

    I,m having and identical problem. In fact when I went to type this my split keyboard is dead center on the page.
    When I hold down the button on the bottom right corner when I'm in split mode I get the option to Dock and Merge or just to Merge. There is no option where the keyboard stays split once it's been docked and merged.
    Help! I have small hands and it's so much easier to type in split screen.
    Thanks.

    Boy sure what you are doing but the current iOS level is 7.1 not 7.0.4.
    You cannot update to 7.0.4.

  • Any issues with latest 2014 ios update & Straight Talk

    Hi, I've been with straight talk for about 2 weeks without any problem - switching --porting--pics.....all went well . Now my phone ( iPhone 3c) shows iOS update waiting..
    Due to all I have read here & there,I'm a bit uneasy to do the update. Has anyone had any issues with lates t2014 ios update using ST? Will it affect the working of the phone if I don't do update? Thanks for any input.

    Hi, Glad  that worked for you. I don't know why this is happening other than to offer an opinion. This hardware acceleration was causing an issue with the previous version of FP also. I think that this technology is ready but the websites are not, youtube included.
    The same thing happened with Flash Player for the mobile phones, Android in particular. Adobe was ready but had to wait on Google to catch up. So the users thot Adobe was at fault, but that wasn't the case. Google had to update and that was done with their 2.2 update. This is not an opinion however. I followed this because users were coming here asking why Flash Player wasn't available for their Android:-)
    Adobe/Microsoft/Mac/Linux are all involved and if one advances a particular technology that effects the others, then each one must make a change for that technology to work. At least that's how I see it.
