Ios8 update broke messaging in iphone 5
The i0s8 update broke imessaging in my iphone 5s. Asks if I want to send as SMS instead. Nice QA, Apple.
I had the same problem with iOS8 and the iPhone5. I was not getting any messages being sent to me via iMessage.
I only noticed this because the iMessage app on the Mac had new messages that the iPhone did not.
When I went to the iPhone Messages settings and tried to log in to iMessage via my apple ID and PW the phone kept saying the PW is not correct which was not true since I am using that same ID and PW to post this message.
I turned the iPhone off and then back on, went back into the Messages settings and iMessage indicated I was logged and and now is working however the earlier messages only delivered to the mac app don't show up on the phone.

IOS8 update bricked dead my iphone 4s (error 29) - restore to 7.1.2 not working
IOS 8.0 update OTA to my 4S has killed the device. After the initial attempt failed I tried via iTune Restore and got Error 29.
Attempts to restore to an older version (7.1.2) failed as well. Same error.
The phone is stuck in the familiar "connect to iTunes" screen.
Has iOS8 destroyed my phone?I'll try and simplify a very basic problem for you as you seem to be confused, while many others aren't (I wouldn't be surprised if you are an Apple 'genius').
Guy with brain and new iPhone battery and relevant screwdriver replaces factory iPhone battery (a factory battery is the battery Apple put in the phone) the factory is replaced with a new battery the iPhone is then plugged in to iTunes to be restored...The error message pops back up again. Thus arriving at the conclusion the battery is not the problem hence why the old battery (the factory battery) goes back in.
The iPhone was not bought used which is why I was confidently able to say to the Apple 'genius' when I went to the store it had not been tampered with when I had arrived at the store, the tampering of my iPhone only ever took place when I left the store with the Apple 'genius' scratching their heads. The 'natural state' I explained clearly in an earlier post as being how the phone was brand new when I bought it brand new.

Am I wrong or is there something I need to adjust on my devices?Airplay is found by swiping up and enabling via control centre
Use AirPlay to wirelessly stream content from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If AirPlay functionality has been removed or if there is error then it is up to the developer to fix -

Hi,
USB recovery disk was used to recover your system when it encounter problem. You can try to use it to fix your problem instead reinstall system. However, there is no method to keep your program whenreinstall system.

Can not update apps after IOS8 update on iPhone 4s
Can not update apps after IOS8 update on iPhone 4s
I can no longer update apps on my iPhone 4s after the IOS 8 update. The IOS 8 update took a very long time to complete, maybe 12 hours, and afterwards, it worked but updating packages were very slow. Package updates have since been problematic and about 4 days ago, it stopped being able to update any packages. I click on them to update and they never make any progress. I have 2.8 Gbytes free and I keep deleting more and more packages, pictures, etc. It seems like, from the amount of stuff that I have deleted, I should have more than 2.8 Gbytes free.
Is anyone else having this kind of problem?16GB iPhone4: Go to Settings, scroll down to iTunes & App Stores and touch. At the top of the next page it shows: Apple ID. Touch this. Select Sign Out. Your Apple ID will go away. Re-enter Apple ID and password. Try App Store again.
Other solutions were to go to Settings:General:Date&Time and turn off auto-update, then change date to next year. This didn't work for me, nor a lot of other users on the forums. It took reading a lot of threads to find the log-out, log-in solution. Even on the official Apple Website all I saw was: Make sure your connection is working, battery is charged, desktop is plugged in when you try to sync. OK I exaggerate, but with all the users posting this problem, you'd think they'd post their solutions when they work with a Tech Help call. -
When connecting my iphone to my computer, message appears: iphone cannot be used because itunes needs to be updated. I updated on my Mac, but it isn't transferring to my phone. Tried looking at software updates on my phone - "no updates needed"
Okay, that means with the latest iOS software, it requires the latest version of iTunes on the computer. Which computer OS platform are you using. Now you are saying that after downloading the latest version of iTunes that your iPhone is not being recognized by iTunes? Completely different thing, and the iTunes on the iPhone has nothing to do with that anyway. The iTunes on the iPhone is just for purchases.
If you are having trouble with the iPhone being recognized by iTunes, use the appropriate link for your computer OS for assistance.

I have a new laptop because the old one broke and so do not have non camera roll photos or music stored anywhere apart from the iphone 3gs and cannot update io5 on the iphone 3gs without erasibng everything. i need help!!!
Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Do this:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your device without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPhone for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

I have never updated ios on my iPhone 4. I am currently running ios 4. I tried to update yesterday to ios 6 but many hours into the backup I got an error message saying that continuing would cause all of my phone contents to be lost. What should I do?
Why, if it told you you have insufficient space on your computer, would it suggest making more space available on your phone?
At a guess, you have insufficient space on your phone. Installing software will typically require more space than the final size of the software, perhaps even twice or three times as much, for the installation process. You can easily dump some videos or music temporarily, and then synch them back in afterwards. -
I download latest updates for itunes and my iphone, when it comes to installing, it successfully downloads, but then i get a message for iphone software error=1403 file corrupted, and for itunes it downloads, then when i try to install it a message says unable to install software, file maybe corrupted!!
The iTunes update must be downloaded and installed before you try and use it to update the iPhone OS
Download iTunes 10.2.2 from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1103
When it completes it will auto mount the disc image and show you the package installer, don't try and do anything with the file until it gets to this stage.
Once that's installed reboot the Mac, run iTunes, connect your iPhone and let it sync, then hit the update button and let it complete that step by itself (which will require a restart of the iPhone)
