Iphone 3g mailboxes going crazy since upgrading software

I upgraded my iphone 3g software last night and now my email is going crazy with unread messages. Messages that I had previously read are now showing up as unread and I am forced to clean out dozens if not hundreds of emails. What's up with this and is there an easier way around it than to delete or open every single message. Very annoying.

As discussed in several threads on this forum, iOS4 on 3g is a pos. It slows down the iPhone to the point of uselessness. It's bad enough that even Apple has confirmed the issue but no date announced for a fix, if there is going to be one.

IPhone won't sync properly since upgrading to new iTunes and iOS5

Hi,
I'm having great difficulty syncing my iPhone properly since upgrading to the newest software of both.
Ever since upgrading to iOS5 and the newer iTunes (10.5), my phone will start to sync but then get stuck on 'waiting for items to copy' and most of the time doesn't copy across (or back, depending on what it is). Sometimes if I sync a few times it eventually works, but other times, like at the moment, it won't do it properly. For instance, I've bought a song on my phone but now it won't copy across to the computer, and iTunes on the computer thinks I've already downloaded the song so I can't get it off there. It's incredibly frustrating but it used to work so well!
What can I do to make it sync properly? I was hoping a fix would be in iOS5.0.1 but I upgraded to that yesterday and it still does exactly the same things. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

My iPhone 4s keeps Timing out , since upgrade to iOS6

Since upgrading to iOS6, my iPhone 4s keeps Timing out of ALL of my apps and email programs. Screen goes black for a second, then it returns to Home screen.
Even on phone calls, it seems to freeze momentarily.
Also my battery is not charging to 100%.
I have my Phone for only 4 months.
Any solutions before I do a Hard reset and default return setting??

Touch screen on iPhone 5 is going crazy when i'm typing and using my apps

is anyone having issues with the sensitivity of the touch screen on iphone 5? Mine is going crazy!

Just had exactly the same problem and the stress it caused!
My phone was calling people, deleting emails and then locking me out because the screen wouldn't respond properly when i tried to put my passcode in...
Thank you so much for this info.. i rebooted with the power and home button, gave the screen a good wipe with a lint free cloth and crossed my fingers..
So far, so good. I may even be able to cancel my genius bar appointment for Sunday.
Thanks again!

Did you try to replace the calendar info on the phone with the one on your Mac? You can find this option in iTunes/Info pane, Advanced section.

Going crazy after upgrading to ios 8.0.2.

Please tell me if need to adjust my settings or what? Since upgrading to IOS 8.0.2, my iPad prioritizes my cellular service over WiFi service. I have to physically turn off cellular service before the iPad will even recognize a WiFi connection. Then I have to reboot the iPad to get the WiFi to work. I have to do this every time I move the iPad to a new location. The WiFi will work for a little bit after I reboot, then the iPad freezes up completely, or I lose my Internet connection, or both. So I have to reboot the iPad again. Meanwhile, my battery is draining at an alarming rate. I used to be able to go 10 hours before recharging. Now it will only last a couple of hours. I have had to reboot my iPad 5 times today. Can somebody please tell me if you have similar issues, or if I have a setting wrong somewhere, or what? I was completely happy with my IOS 7 version. Can I go back to it?

FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
3. Repeat the process if necessary.

IPhone 5 Power Button flaky since upgrade to iOS 7

I never had any issues with the power/sleep button on my iPhone 5 in the past. However, immediately after upgrading to iOS 7 I started having issues with the button not responding very well. It can take numerous presses to get it to work, or sometimes it just works on the first try. I have updated to the latest 7.0.1 and 7.0.2 but with no change in behavior. I am fairly certain that there is some sort of issue or bug with iOS 7, and that it is not a hardware issue.
Has anyone else come across this problem, and if so, was there anything found that could possibly fix it (aside from restoring an old backup of the phone before it was upgraded to iOS7)?

The problem for me was litterally overnight.. fine before iOS 7.. problem showed up the day after the update. While it could be a coincidence, the general sluggishness of iOS 7 on my iPhone 5 and the timing is highly suggestive of an iOS 7 problem. My iPhone 5 used to feel so much snappier than my wife's 4S with iOS 6.. she didnt update.. and the difference between the two phones now just isnt there. Certain things are faster (well at least Safari) with iOS 7, but im kinda bummed that my phone is no longer as "snappy" as it was before the update.
Having been a Mac user since around 98, and being one of the first to have the Mac OS 10.. i am used to OS updates being an improvement (10 was buggy.. but got better fast.. even on my iBook 466SE).
I understand that with phones the hardware is making quantum leaps each year.. and you cant expect a phone to be able to handle an OS designed around what is esentially completely different hardware.. but a year-old phone that has the same processor as a new 5c should not feel sluggish.
I'm cool with progress.. and rather Apple make leaps in hardware capability.. and don't necessarily want them to get caught up in supporting legacy hardware.. but the 5 is not really legacy when Apple sticks to a 1 year upgrade cycle.

Cant import Mailboxes and Messages since upgrading to Tiger

I exported all my mailboxes and messages in Mail under Panther. I then did a clean install of Tiger erasing the HD. If I import mailboxes from Mac OSX, then it doesn;t import anything. If I import mailboxes from "other" then it imports the empty mailboxes, but there are no messages inside. Rebuild is grayed out in the Mailbox menu, so that isn't an option. I have tried manually copying the mailbox folders, but to no avail.

I just had the same problem.
Trying to upgrade my G3 iBook from 10.2.8 to Tiger was a disaster (currently in the shop), so the long awaited new computer purchase happened a bit early. I have a firewire drive backup of my entire "house" profile, including the library, with all my mailboxes under the "Mail" folder.
Started my new G5 iMac, opened Mail 2.0.5, got it working, and then attempted the import function, going to the "Mail" folder on my external firewire drive. It imported about half of the folders, and nothing is in them (the older version of mail is whatever was last supported by 10.2.8).
When import didn't work, I tried to manually copy the mailboxes from the external firewire drive into the Mail directory - best I got was the same result - not all folders, and what I got was empty.
What's the deal? I expected Apple products to have trouble reading MS stuff, but I can't read email from an older version of Apple's Mail?
Please help... seems to be a common problem, but no answer.

Problems since upgrading software

Today I upgraded my software version to 7.2 and then proceeded to download quite a few CD's. When I syncd my iPod to iTunes, it proceeds to "update" but new downloads are not on the iPod. Also, every time I attempt to sync, all playlist folders duplicate. What can I do to fix this?!?!?

My bad! I was tired and frustrated when sending my last message. I upgraded my iPod to 1.2 version not 7.2. Please help as I'd like to enjoy all the holiday music I downloaded while I have to drive 18 hours this weekend to visit family for Christmas.

Some iPhones cannot download our podcast since upgrading to IOS.5?

Our podcast can be downloaded fine on iTune sand on most mobile devices, but some people say it stops downloading after 15.6kb. Why would this be, they have said it has happened since they upgraded to the IOS.5?

Hi, I found your question whilst trying to work out why my podcasts were doing this. Thought I'd update with my solution in case it's of help to you.
I found the solution by trial and error in the end. I moved the mp3 files onto another hosting space that we had to see if that helped, and it fixed it.
I can only assume that because the files were uploaded into our CMS originally, something weird was happening on ios devices to stop it downloading.
Might be worth moving your files just to see? I found your site (saw a similar question you posted with the feed in another bit of this site) and I noticed it's made with Drupal. I don't know Drupal myself but I'm guessing if you have uploaded the mp3 files as assets in the CMS, it might be the cause of the problem?
Cheers

Since upgrading software I no longer access Netflix

I upgraded to the latest software. Netflix is no longer available.

I had to do a restore. I tried to do this on the Apple TV, itself but this just hung up the device. Luckily I had the right USB cable so I did another restore thru iTunes. This solved the problem.
