IOS 8.2 updates

hi there anyone please if I try to install ios8.2 on my iPhone 5s currently running iOS 8.1.3 , would it require for me to insert a valid SIM card at the activation menu or it would just startup normally without activation as the fone is locked to Vodafone uk and I don't have the sim card with me anymore and I don't live in the uk ?! many thanks

Hi there bashman_
As I understand it you no longer have a working SIM card for the carrier that the phone is locked to, and want to know if updating will make you need the card. According to the following article, it very well may:
Using an iPhone without a wireless service plan
Note: It may be necessary to repeat this process after updating or restoring the device.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Car Stereo No Longer Recognizes iPhone after iOS 7.1 Update

I connect my iPhone to my car stereo with via USB (the stereo doesn't have bluetooth) and now after the iOS 7.1 update, it no longers works in my car. My stereo displays an error message of 'iPod err' when I connect it. I've used this same car stereo and USB cable to connect my iPhone for years without any issues, until the 7.1 update a couple days ago.
Anyone else having this issue? This is real frustrating.

In another thread on this issue, Brendan writes:
Turns out restarting my car and/or rebooting my iphone "fixed" the issue. Apparently this was unrelated to the iOS 7.2 upgrade. Honda + iPhone has been rock solid (even if the Honda Fit UI is terrible), so I'm not sure what to make of this problem. Maybe a glitch? Who knows.
Here is the URL for that thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/25211736?ac_cid=tw123456#25211736
His suggestion worked for me: turn off your car, completely shut-off your phone and let it sit a few minutes. Then reboot phone and start car and try again.
Good luck!

Iphone 5 issues after IOS 8.2 update: my husband's phone and my phone get the same phone calls ONLY when we are home. Any suggestions on where to look to fix this?

That is a new "feature" described in Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity
You can turn it off by going to Settings > FaceTime and changing "iPhone Cellular Calls" to off

IPad2 Issues after iOS 8.1 update

iPad2 64g wifi + cellular -   very slow and non-responsive since iOS 8.1 update. nonstandard Apps seem to be working fine.. it’s the standard item like photos and safari that don't respond.
photos - (which I use daily to show clients examples) will freeze and kick me out back to the home page when trying to do anything from open a photo for viewing to trying to delete a photo. Edit.. forget it.   better off using an alternate app to edit a photo as it locks up and crashes every time.   I really need to be able to view the photos on my iPad2
safari -   good luck using any hyper link…. It doesn’t respond.   Even at Apple’s website.   Sometimes it crashes but most of the time it just ignores me like I haven’t touched the screen
Overall - the touch screen is glitchy since the iOS 8.1 update. It was slow after the iOS 8.0 update but has become almost unusable after the 8.1 update.
I cannot afford to purchase a new iPad. And I really need to find a way to make this one work.
I did read about how to restore to an older iOS version.   The only problems are all of my laptop is Windows based and the instructions assumed you had a Mac.   I did a backup to iTunes prior to the 8.0 update but I have also done backups since.   So I am not sure I have a “clean” iOS 7 backup.
Any ideas would be appreciated   Thank you in advance for your help

For the touch issues in Safari, does scrolling or zooming the page before you try to tap a link make it work again? I've read a few posts that this may be a workaround for that issue.

Smart Cover doesn't put iPad into Sleep mode in Unlock position after iOS 8.3 update

Prior to the iOS 8.3 update, closing my Smart Cover would put my iPad into Sleep mode when in the Unlock position. Since the update, this function no longer works in the Unlock position. In the Lock position, I hear the click and the iPad does go into Sleep mode. Since I am the only one using my iPad, I don't need it locked when at home. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

hi guys. i'm back.
i solved my problem. i refer my iphone 5 to a local distributor. a repairman checked my iphone and i described my problem. he checked my battery. it was fine! then after an hour excavation around hardware solution he told me that the charging kit crashed because of heavy mobility usage!
yes. i did not covered my phone with any cover. the cpu pressure by ios update crashed the kit! now my phone get back after the kit changed and work finally. i restored my phone to ios 8.2 now.
i'm going to buy new iphone. but i'm really confused if such this issue really happened for iphone 6 too!!!!!
i'm totally disappointed .

IOS 8.1 Update has "BRICKED" my iPad 4 128Gb

I am exceedingly angry about everything to do with iOS 8.x. The 8.0 update mad everything intolerably slowm update 8.02 resulted in repeatable and constant crashing of Safari, mail, messaging, and other apps.
This morning I decided to try the Update to iOS 8.1 only because life has been extremely miserable after iOWS 8 came out. Twice, the iOS 8.1 update stated that it COULD NOT BE COMPLETED based on an error which it did not disclose. I then reduced the number of apps and deleted documents to reduce what was stored in memory. The iOS 8.1 update still failed.
I then decided top do a hard reboot (Power Button and Home button hold) ever since that, my iPad has been locked with the Apple Logo stuck on the screen. It appears to be trying to reboot but is not. It stays on for 20 - 30 min, the screen blacks out, the iPad shuts down, and then tries to reboot again. It has been doing this now for over six hours. It does not respond to any power button or home button pressing at all nor is it shutting down.
I am really angry that Apple botched iOS 8 up and has done a miserable update to a perfectly running iOS 7.x system. I am also angry that everything at this point seems to be lost document and photo wise since the last backup a couple of weeks ago.
Has anyone else had this experience with the iPad 4 128 GB machine?
Has anyone been able to get it to finally reboot?
I'd appreciate any help.

TS3694 I performed an iOS 7 software update on my iPhone yesterday, and now the phone is not working at all. The iPhone screen shows to connect to iTunes to restore. I've have done this, and still the iPhone is not working. What going on?

I have no idea what may have caused your MacBook to stop working, but from your description it kind of sounds like it may have started before you ran Software Update and installed the new Apps. Just the general slow feeling and bugginess is what tips me off. You said that you weren't sure if you had closed all open windows, that doesn't matter if the computer restarts itself. It automatically closes all other open applications when restarting.
As to your data being retrievable, if when you take it in they do a fresh install of the OS, then no, it will not be unless you want to pay several thousand dollars to a software retrieval company.
I am glad to hear that you have taken into the Apple Store to get it fixed, and that you have all of your purchased music backed up to your iPod. You should be able to just transfer it all back to iTunes once you get your computer back should it be necessary.
As a side note, the proper place for this topic would probably in the MacBook forums, not iTunes since there is no evidence that iTunes started the issue.

HT4623 Reminders won't work after iOS 6.1 update on iPhone 5?

I updated to the new iOS 6.1 update last night. Went to make a reminder through siri and i get to the point were it asks to confim. When I press confirm Siri tells me that she can't do it. I try to set a reminder manually and the app does not give me the option to add a reminder manually. Everything worked fine before the update when my iPhone 5 had the 6.0 iOS?
Any ideas on what the problem coulb be? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
GS47

The problem is more than likely being cause by corruption that occured during the iOS install or in the backup that was used to restore the phone after the update.
Standard troubleshooting is:
Re-boot the phone
Restore the phone from your backup
Restore the phone as a new device.
One of the 3 should fix the problem.

Acura USB Connection Problems After iOS 8.2 Update

I have a 2014 Acura MDX and prior to the iOS 8.2 update, I could play music either via Bluetooth or the USB connection through the iPod "source" (though the USV connection had far superior sound). After the update, the USB connection doesn't work anymore. Same cables used and the iPhone picks up a charge so it is not a bad connection. Anyone else having the same issue?

this happens also to me. Opel Astra / GM version in Europe.
8.2 totally killed audio via USB cable. Connecting results in "no supported audio files found"

HT4623 after the ios 7.0 update my iphone 4s and ipad keep switching in between the home screen and the apple loading screen, can anybody help?

Can anybody help with the above?
i.e
both my iphone 4s and ipad switch in between the home screen and the apple loading screen
Many thanks

I would connect each device to a power source, and then reset them by holding the power button and the home button until they turn off.
If it keeps happening, I would put the devices in recovery mode and restore them with iTunes.
This article will help with that if needed:

Cannot download apps to iPad since iOS 5.1 update. Get error message "An unexpected error has occurred"

cannot download apps to iPad since iOS 5.1 update. Get error message "An unexpected error has occurred"

Hi mike,
Seems like a frustrating problem! Try restarting your device, and trying again. If that doesn't work, in settings, under store, tap your apple id at the bottom of the page, and then sign out. Sign back in again, and try again.
Also, check you have enough remaining space on your iPad for the app you want to download, you can do this in settings, then general, then usage.
I also reccomend buying the app in iTunes on your computer, and then syncing it to your device.
Let me know how you get on, and I'll get back to you with further help if needed,
Nathan

IPhone 4s No Longer connects to Car Bluetooth after iOS 7.1 Update

My iPhone 4s has been paired to our 2006 Acura TL hands free link (Bluetooth) and working flawlessly for more than a year. After the iOS 7.1 update installed on my iPhone the connection has been lost and the car's Bluetooth does not recognize, and will not pair with my iPhone anymore! I noticed there were two back-to-back updates for iOS7. The first one caused intermittent interruptions and lost connections with the iPhone. The second update completely destroyed the connection between the car bluetooth and the iPhone. Any ideas on how to correct this problem would certainly be appreciated. Thanks!

Hello algee1,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with pairing your iPhone with your Acura.
In my experience, when updates are released for iOS devices, compatible devices release an update to maintain compatibility. Step 2 from the article below recommends checking with the manufacturer of your car stereo to see if there is a firmware update available for your car stereo:
2. Update software and firmware if necessary
Verify that both your car stereo and your device have the latest software versions. Contact the manufacturer to see if any updates are available. If your device does not have the latest version of the iOS, update to the latest software version.
I recommend reviewing the full article here for additional troubleshooting steps:
iOS: Troubleshooting car stereo connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3581
I also recommend these steps if the issue persists after following all the steps in the previous article:
Unable to find nearby Bluetooth accessories
If a pairing record already exists, the device does not appear as discoverable. Try to connect the device using that pairing record.
If you are unable to connect using the existing pairing record, delete the record and pair again.
Ensure that the firmware or software on the Bluetooth accessory is up to date.
Ensure that the Bluetooth accessory is charged or connected to power.
Verify that the Bluetooth accessory is using a profile that works with the iOS device.
Turn off both the iOS device and the Bluetooth accessory, then turn both devices on again.
If the issue persists, test Bluetooth with another device or consult the manufacturer's documentation.

IHome no longer works with iPhone 4s after iOS 6.1 update.

My iHome no longer works with iPhone 4s after iOS 6.1 update. Prompts message 'This accessory is not supported by iPhone'. Has anyone come accross this and is there a fix?

Ring up iHome and ask them for a fix... And if they cant supply you with a fix... Then you should be entitled to a replacement or a upgrade, as firmware upgrades on your ios device should not affect audio products......
