IOS Iphone Syncing problem - UPDATE direct from SupportIf you

I've been having problem getting messages on my iphone for a week now. No group messages, no notifications, and I cannot receive groups calls or messages. I have the latest version of iOS and reinstalled and reset my phone severals times. I contacted Skype support and found out they are doing a SILENT update, and that we can experience problems on this for the next several weeks, and there is NOTHING YOU CAN DO. I requested they post an update to keep users informed so they don't spend a bunch of time debgging, but guess what, they won't. So hpefully see this post before you spend 3 hours trying to figure out the problem. Please give a kudos if this helps, so that others will see too. Thanks!!

i'm having problems since 2015-07-31 on my iphone4 (7.1.2) - it syncs msgs only if the other party is online at the same time. all offline msgs are ignored without error or something.
but strange as it is it still works without issues on my iphone6 (8.4)... both devices run skype 5.14.0.46

Are there any problems updating directly from OS X 10.6 to Mountain Lion 10.8? X

Will I have any particular difficulty updating directly from OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) to 10.8 Mountain Lion using a download from the App Store?
iMac is current with the latest 10.6.8 version.
Thank you for any comments or suggestions.

You want to check compatibility of your apps and that your Mac can support ML.
Also, although the specs say 2GB of RAM, IMO 4GB should be a minimum.
The app Store DL is slow. Once you DL it, before installing it copy the installer from your Applications folder, so if you ever need to use it again you have it. The reason for this is that it self destructs after restart.

Imessage problem after ios 5.1.1 updating directly from device.

My iphone 4s cannot receive imessages and send messages only as emails after updating to ios5.1.1 directly from the device(not with itunes). In the imessage section , to the part where my number is , it says that has an error. Any help??

Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
If that does not resolve, basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

ITunes tells me there is an update (5.1) but it never gets any further than trying to connect to the iPad server. I've tried updating directly from my iPad and it too times out saying it cannot connect to any server. My regular Apple updates work fine.

iTunes tells me there is an iOS update (5.1) but it never gets any further than trying to connect to the iPad server. I've tried updating directly from my iPad and it too times out saying it cannot connect to any server. My regular Apple updates work fine.

I haven't updated yet. Apple's download servers have been too busy. Did you know you can update via wifi instead of connection to your computer?
Here's a description of the update. Not a lot of changes for iPad 1/2.
iOS 5.1 Software Update

You can wait a while & update at your convenience.

I'd like to buy an iPhone 4S in France directly from the Apple Store, not from the operators. But, I will go back to my country, Thailand. So, I'm wondering to know that there is an INTERNATIONAL warranty for iPhone, and is it valid in Thailand (warranty)

There is NO International Warranty for the iPhone. Your best bet is to purchase one in Thailand. If you purchase a phone in France, you will NOT get warranty service on it in Thailand and will have to return it to France (or any EU country) for warranty service.

Hi Marcel1no,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that it can be frustrating when an application downloaded from the App Store is not behaving as you would expect. In this situation, I would recommend using the attached article for information on troubleshooting apps downloaded from the App Store.

Sync not updating "plays" from iPhone in 10.5.3

I recently upgraded from an iPhone 3G to a 4S, and also to 10.5.3.3, and I'm not positive at which point syncing stopped updating the "plays" count in iTunes. It seems much more likely to be an iTunes issue though. Anyway, when I view the music on the iPhone in iTunes, the play count is properly updated; it just doesn't get properly incremented in the library. Any suggestions to fix?
Other details: Win 7, manually manage music, backup to iCloud (I tried changing this to "backup to this computer" and re-synced, but that didn't solve it).
I searched previous discussions and didn't find a solution that applied.
Thanks in advance.

I get slightly different behavior from the terminal that you do:
$ cp test-file.txt /Volumes/webdav.domain.tld/
cp: /Volumes/webdav.doamin.tld/test-file.txt: No such file or directory
The files do NOT copy.
If I mount a different webdav folder on the same machine, the file DOES copy.
In the finder I get the "You cannot copy some of these items to the destination because the names are too long or contain invalid characters for the destination"
The file is named test-file.txt.
Apache is setup like this:
<virtualhost *>
ServerName webdav.domain.tld
#ServerAlias www.domain.tld/webdav
DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/www.domain.tld/
DavLockDB /tmp/DavLock.mjt
<location />
DAV On
AuthType basic
AuthName "domain.tld DAV"
AuthUserFile /usr/local/www/www.domain.tld/.htdavpass
Options All
ForceType text/plain
<Limit PUT POST DELETE PROPFIND PROPPATCH MKCOL COPY MOVE LOCK UNLOCK>
require valid-user
</Limit>
</location>
</VirtualHost>
I have another webdav on the same server
<virtualhost *>
ServerName webdav.domain2.tld
DocumentRoot /home/user/Sites
DavLockDB /tmp/DavLock.sg
<location />
DAV On
AuthType basic
AuthName "domain2"
AuthUserFile /home/user/.htdavpass
Options All
ForceType text/plain
<Limit PUT POST DELETE PROPFIND PROPPATCH MKCOL COPY MOVE LOCK UNLOCK>
require valid-user
</Limit>
</location>
</virtualhost>
This second one works just fine. other than one being under /usr/local/www and the other under /home/user/ I can't figure any difference. Is it possible this is some apache2 weirdness?
(note this is under a user location instead of /usr/local/www) and it works fine. Permissions are identical (www:www on the folder and all files).

How to download the new iPhone OS update directly from a link

is a link provided by Apple to download the new iPhone OS 3.1.3 file itself ? I want to download it to a computer which I will not be able to connect my iPhone to. I will USB thumb drive the file to my laptop to finish the update at some later point in the day....
Apple by contrast has always allowed stuff like OS combination updaters, Security Updates, iDVD updates, iLife updaters, etc to be downloaded to a computer which isnt necessarily involved with the actual update.
I was hoping this motif would also be try for iPhones.
TIA

sure it is possible :
OS3.1.3 for Iphone 3G

OS3.1.3 for Iphone 3GS

in itunes press shift key while clicking on update, this will let you coose the downloaded file for use.

ICal / iPhone sync problems - events don't appear in iCal

I have MobileMe set up on both my MacBook and iPhone. All iCal-created events now appear on my iPhone (although only those after 9th May 2008; none before), but if I create an event on my iPhone then it doesn't show up on iCal. If I check MobileMe on the internet, my web-based version of iCal has all events, including those that I create on the iPhone.
On iCal I have two calendar types: Home (Blue) and Work (Green). On my iPhone there are now four types, for some reason: two Homes (both Blue) and two Works (both Green). I have tried experimenting by creating events in all calendars, but none sync to appear in iCal on my MacBook.
Help!

After 3.5 hours on the phone with applecare, I believe this problem of not syncing ical from ipod touch to the ical app is resolved. Here are the steps that made it happen for me:
Log out of main account and log into root account. If you haven't set up the root user yet follow the directions in your Mac Help on your computer. Make sure you understand the implications of setting up the root user account. You may want to disable the root user after you are done with this fix.
In Finder, navigate to /Users/(your account)/Library/Application Support and delete every folder in the Application Support directory that has the word 'Sync' in the folder's name.
Log out of the root account and back into your main account. Sync your ipod touch / iphone and see if this worked for you.
Good Luck!

Yosemite and iOS iMessage Syncing Problem

I am SO frustrated. I've read forum after forum and CANNOT seem to set up text message forwarding. I've signed into just one apple id across all of the devices (@icloud.com), I've selected receive from and only had my email address selected. I've toggled the iMessage on and off on my phone (sometimes crashing iMessage - it says it's activating and then says it can't connect to iCloud). I've turned on BlueTooth and tried connecting my devices and then clicking "Enable Test Message Forwarding." Whatever I do, I CANNOT seem to get the activation code to pop up on my laptop. It just won't.
There is a SERIOUS bug in iMessage and this problem only started after I updated to Yosemite and iOS 8, on my new iPhone 5.
Before updating anything, my MacBook Air and my iPhone 4 were working together beautifully. After updating to Yosemite, suddenly I could receive messages on both devices, but they would show up unread on my phone even though I checked them on my laptop and vice versa and my replies would only show up on the device where the replies originated. When I switched to the other device, conversations appear one sided - I can only see the series of messages my friends sent me in the conversation on the other device (without my replies).
Today, I was furious because I texted someone from my phone while at work and then thought that I never heard from them. I went home to discover that their reply only went to my Macbook Air, which had been sitting at home, closed, on the kitchen table!
I thought I fixed it because one or two messages I sent from my iPhone showed up on my laptop when I used it later in the day. However, I have yet to see this successfully happen again.
PLEASE FIX THIS BUG, APPLE.
Kind regards,
K

Hi,
What I am understanding form your post may not be what you think you are telling me.
Nor does it quite match what I thought I had posted. (post/message is only as good as it is understood by the recipient)
On the iPhone in the iMessages setting remove all additional emails.
Remove the Apple ID you are using for iMessages
Then place in Airplane Mode (ON) which turns everything else Off effectively.
this will leave Messages with just the iPhone number listed when you go back to the settings.
Wait for the iPhone Number to Verify (re-register) with the servers.
Apple IDs
I have an Apple ID I made years ago using an external email address from a Dial up provider.
At the start of iCloud I linked it to iCloud and received an @Me.com email ID either works in iTunes and logging in to the web page for iCloud.
Later I also got an @icloud.com email/ID
Sending an email to @me.com or @iCloud.com gets to my Mail App that lists the @me.com variant.
Emails sent to the original email address do not come through the Apple servers.
iMessages treats each as a separate ID.
It is important that the Apple ID used on the Mac and the first one used as the Apple ID in Messages on the iPhone are the same - even if they are linked elsewhere.
(It can be different to the iCloud setting on each device)
when you add the Apple ID to the iPhone the mac should get the Pop ups to say what the iPhone is using.
Accepting them adds the iPhone number to the Send and Receive options in the Mac version (And th Start conversations from drop down).
At this point on the Mac you should have only two IDs active to Receive and Send (the Apple ID and the iPhone Number).
Text Forwarding should then be enabled on the iPhone, prompting the Mac version to show you the code, which then needs entering on the iPhone.
There are limits to some Model of Mac regarding Handoff and Airplay (my mid 2011 iMac will do Airplay between Macs but not with iOS devices).
I am not sure if there are limits to Text Forwarding though.

IOS 5 Sync Problems

So maybe I'm missing something here, but let me lay out the situation for you.
My Touch is running iOS 5. I updated my podcasts in iTunes and hooked up the Touch for syncing (manually over the wire and all). Everything seemed to go well and then when I went to listen to one of the new episodes that was downloaded it showed as being there but is unselectable. It's faded out. I re-sync wired, and over wi-fi...nothing. It's only happening to new episodes and everything else is working just fine. The episodes play without problem on the MacBook.
It seems that this is happening becuase when I sync to iTunes it is canceling itself dispite no action from me. It tends to get to a point where it's done syncing artwork and is in the midst of doing podcasts...and then it cancels out of the blue.
I've restarted the MacBook, I've restarted the Touch, I've synced wired and wifi. Result is consistent.

For what it's worth the Geniuses (and I had a total of 3 working with me at various points in the session) seemed about as confused about the problem as I was. An hour was spent basically trying the same stuff I already tried (in fairness most of that time is sitting and waiting as things restore, sync, etc.). Then we figured out it was a software problem on the computer and not the iPod (since the iPod would sync with one of their machines without problem).
They tried to uninstall/reintall iTunes...which as of OSX Lion, apparently you can't do (which they seemed to learn there in that moment) so instead we reinstalled all the software updates from the files they had on their network.
That seemed to work, I synced about 600 or so podcasts before I left without a problem. I had already been there two hours, so I opted to go home to sync/set up the rest of the device...which also seemed to go smoothly until about 9PM. Then I noticed it was starting to give me the same problem with songs...I updated my podcast list and tried syncing that...same problem again.
So we temporarily solved the problem...and now it's back again. At least I have stuff to listen to today and I'm back to see the Geniuses again this afternoon.
They're really sticking with me, but it's disappointing that it's happening still.

IPhone sync problem with iCal and Address Book

I have a new iPhone 4 that is not syncing contacts or events. It doesn't seem to matter whether the event or contact is created in my iMac or on the iPhone. Either way, the data doesn't move. During the iPhone synch process, where iTunes tells you what is going on, syncing calendars and contacts doesn't even appear. When I had my iPod Touch, all worked well. I saw a post about resetting in iSync, etc., but when I look there, I don't even see my iPhone, and so far I can't add it. My only option there is to add a bluetooth device. So I need some help. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Chuck

You're welcome.
You can't hurt anything by resetting the sync history on your Mac, and doing so may resolve the problem.
Syncing contacts direct with a supported Address Book application and syncing calendar events direct with a supported Calendar app on your computer via the iTunes sync process has nothing to do with a MobileMe account - a trial account or otherwise. Completely separate and not related even if you are syncing contacts and calendar events over the air with your MobileMe account on your iPhone. If you are doing so with your iPhone, syncing direct with the Address Book and iCal via the iTunes sync process is not required.

IPhone Sync Problems with VISTA After iTunes Upgrade to 7.4

Upon upgrading to iTunes 7.4 I was unable to sync my Outlook calendar or contacts to the iPhone. Called Apple Support that they seemed to know nothing about this problem general problem despite all of the discussions on this and many other tech. boards.
After being told remove and reinstall iTunes and Outlook, set-up a new user account, etc... (none of which worked) I finally concluded that perhaps the .pst file being used by outlook was simply incompatible with iTunes for some reason (e.g. unsupported recurring calendar items).
SOLUTION: Create a new outlook .pst data file. Once created, open up that new file along with the defective .pst file. Then, simply change the view of calendars and contacts in your old calendar such that you can see all of the items in a list. Highlight the items you want to keep and simply click-and-drag them to the nes .pst file. This solves all of the sync. problems I had post-7.4 upgrade. It takes less than 3 minutes to complete this painless fix.
This was so annoying for me that I'd be happy to help someone complete this simple task if they need help. < Edited by Host, for your protection, no personal information please. >

Then it would appear to be an issue with your router. What router? Model? Is the firmware up to date?
