How Push Notifications dont work:
-Facebook,Twitter,Tumblr,Instagram etc wont show any notification signs
-i have to go onto the app to recieve my notifications
- text messgaes still pop up on my lock screen
I dont know if these sort of problems should be taken to the Apple store,im uncertain on to how much it would cost to get my phone fixed due to i have no warrenty on my phone.
It would be appreciated if you could help me with anything you know that could help me fix my phone.

My iPhone's wifi is grey and won't allow me to slide it into the on position. What do I need to try?
Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

If no joy...
Reset all settings
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings -

Hi my iPhone 4S wifi button can't turn on it is in gray color.. What can I go?
They may not have the updated Facebook app. I have a 4S and my Facebook will not rotate. You can use Google and find more information about this. I'm just reporting what is going on and why it is happening.

If the steps in the article TJBUSMC1973 linked didn't resolve your issue, then the next step would be to have your phone serviced at an Apple store. Good luck

I have updated the software on my iphone 4s and I have lost the wifi connection. The wifi button is dimmed and grey and cannot be selected. I have taken the phone to the local agent and said that they cannot be fixed. Is this true? I am really disappointed at the customer care service provided by both the Apple registered agent in Malta and the mobile service provider, both of whom keep saying they have nothing to do with the problem! Can anyone help please?
Yes I've been offered a replacement at a cost of €250! But I do not think this is fair as apparently it seems that the problem happened as a result of updating my software! If Apple know about such problems, which after going through some blogs online seems to be quite a common one, should replace / fix the phone at NO COST to the client!! I am an Apple fan and have 2 tablets and an iphone and have just ordered a 27" imac for my son...I am truly disappointed at this! I am still expecting some decent service from the company which boosts it's loyal service to its customers! I am for one a very dissatisfied customer!! I want my iphone fixed just like it was before I upgraded to IOS 7.1.1

Wifi button greyed out and I have updated to ios 7.0.4
I have a 4S using ios 7.0.4 software and my wifi button is greyed out and my phone is not connecting to any known wifi connections. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
I have gone through the router reset for home network, Router reset at work. Restarted my personal hotspot on my iPhone that is running the same IOS.
I have performed the Network settings reset on the iPad.
I have performed a hard reboot on the iPad, (Home button and power button until logo appears)
Also I had to update the Apple driver on my laptop for iTunes to see my iPad after I had updated iTunes, I'm not sure if I lost wifi after I updated the iPad IOS or updating iTunes. -
