I just bought a (used) Iphone 3gs for wife and it had angry birds and $89 Navigation on it (I paid extra for it). Once updated and logged into my I-tunes it no longer works? How can I make those apps work?

Apple doesn't have anything to do with this other than enforcing the DRM protection. The developers of this content expect to be paid if someone wants to use their content. When you purchase content in the app store, you purchase a license to use the content. This license does not permit you or anyone else to resell or give this content away. The individual you purchased the phone from simply does not have the right to sell or give away any purchased content on the phone. You were deceived.

HT4623 How can I retrieve my Contacts that I lost after updating iOs 6 on my iPhone 3GS through wifi?

I lost all my Contacts after updating iOS 6 on my iPhone 3GS through wifi. All my other apps, Notes, Photos, etc are as it is but none of my Contacts appear. I also signed up to iCloud during the update but can't find Contacts on iClouds. Pls help!

It is strange people experience this problem only with Contacts because normally contacts are backed up with Notes and Photos and that stuff. If you are willing to do a do-over, you can try to backup, restore, and put your data back on again and see if anything new appears. You never know if some file clould have had some kind of conflict because iOS 6 was being installed while data was being restored at the same time.

IPhone 3Gs Network, Wifi And Bluetooth Off On 4.3.3

Hi, it was two days (so from yesterday) that I have big issues with my iPhone 3Gs with iOS 4.3.3. It not have falls, so I don't think it's hardware problems, because it seems that all the connectivity modules restart. Network (3G or 2G), Wifi And Bluetooth seems to be off and again on, and repeats. First I try to restart, but nothing is fixed. Then I try to restore and insert backup, restore on DFU and insert again the apps, but this afternoon it restart the problems, and restarts itself two times. It strange because I see that the "Personal Hotspot" appears together with this issues. I posted images for explain better (the time is different because is not easy to shot the moment of the restart of the modules. I want to remak that since yesterday morning I never have this problems.

ind my iphone is turned on turn this off and wifi will come on again also do a network reset after this then you can turn FIND my iphone on again job done
Complete nonsense. Find My iPhone has nothing to do with the grayed out wifi issue which you clearly don't understand - tuning it on and off does nothing.

WiFi won't work on iPhone 3GS

Hi all,
I used to be able to connect my iPhone 3GS via WiFi to my Powerbook G4 without issue. Now, since the latest iPhone software update, I'm able to connect, but the phone reverts to the 3G network. It still indicates that I'm connected to WiFi (when looking at the WiFi setting panel) but the little WiFi icon doesn't appear - it says 3G.
I've tried resetting, reconnecting, restarting, refreshing, the iphone, but to no avail. I can't download any large files / purchases from app store unless I physically connect to itunes on my computer. No bueno. Any advice?

I frequently use a Computer-to-Computer network in order to link my iPhone 3Gs to my MBpro to use the Keynote Remote App when there is NO WIFI...this method is used to still allow iPhone to control Keynote with no wifi connection...
When I create that Comp-to-Comp network and then go into settings on iPhone to select that Comp-to-Comp it ALWAYS stays as 3G icon and not WIFI icon...
Even if I am in fact connected to my home WIFI...I tested this and created a Comp-to-Comp and as soon as I selected it and moved away from my home WIFI the icon immediately changed to 3G and yet it still controls my Keynote so I know the connection is complete...
In the previous cases you used this did that icon ever change to the WIFI???
Maybe a really obvious question...but why wouldn't you just connect the iPhone directly to the WIFI network and download the larger apps??? Why are you uisng the WIFI through a Mac laptop??
Lastly if you connect the iPhone to the Mac and allow the sync in iTunes...you can download and then update or install the new apps in iTunes while connected...

Very slow data on iphone 5 via wifi or at&t network

Data on wifi or the LTE network from at&t is very slow. My old iphone 3GS on wifi is faster when comparing wifi and past tests using 3G. Is there an issue wih the new iPhone 5 that is known and will be fixed? I was expecting blazing fast data on the new phone and it's slower than my 3 year old iPhone 3GS... Please explain.
Thank you.
Joe

My wife received her white 64 GB AT&T iPhone 5 from on September 26th (after ordering on the 14th from Apple) and she has had recurring problems with her data connections. Specifically, it will find wifi networks and even connect to them, but then it will spontaneously lose connections and she'll get error messages out of the blue saying that she's not connected to a wifi network. Also, while she often has 4 or 5 bars for her cellular signal, the LTE, 4G, 3G, or Edge indicator is often blank. Sometimes, LTE will light up and she'll be able to download at super-fast speeds, but then other times it's just not available. Also, the wifi indicator will show multiple bars (or waves?), indicating that there's a strong wifi signal, but the internet just won't work over it. This will happen while I'm sitting next to her with my AT&T iPhone 4, just sailing away on the internet with no problems at all.
SO, we took her phone to our local Apple Store in Troy, Michigan for a Genius Bar appointment. The Apple Genius told me that he had the EXACT same problems with his new iPhone, so he exchanged it for another one, and that also had the same problems. He thought there were a few things going on. First, the LTE issue is a local issue for us here in the Detroit area. AT&T just rolled out LTE here 2 weeks ago. So, they are having a number of bugs related to the network being new and possibly a little premature. He thinks the network will be better in the next few months, from what he's heard from AT&T. The wifi issue he believes is a software problem, unique to iOS 6 and its installation on the iPhone 5. Since the LTE thing keeps going on and off, and wifi keeps going on and off, the data connection on the phone is very unreliable at this point, and the phone is using a lot of power to try to maintain that connection, hence the faster battery drainage we're exeperiencing as well.
The bottom line is that there was nothing he could do for me. He wouldn't even let me TRY a phone replacement to see if it would be better. His suggestion was for me to sit tight and wait for Apple software updates and for AT&T to improve their network. However, I am scheduled to have my new BLACK 64 GB AT&T iPhone 5 delivered tomorrow (October 1st). I will restore it from my iPhone 4 backup on my iCloud (like I did with my wife's) and I will se how it goes. If that phone connects and works flawlessly while my wife's phone continues to have problems, then I will return her phone for a new one. On the other hand, if my phone behaves the same way as hers, then I guess I'll follow the Apple Genius' advice.

The wifi option on my iPhone 3GS is greyed out, what do I do?

I need an answer quickly as tomorrow I am travelling and I put my phone in the washing machine by mistake, I needed a replacement phone quickly so I only had a iPhone 3GS as a spare phone. I set it up and wiped it's Setting and Contents, when I did I attempted to turn on my wifi but it is greyed out. What do I do?

Just got an iPhone 3GS, How do I connect to home WiFi network?

I posted this in the network discussion as well, but wasn't getting answers and I need to resolve this problem as soon as possible.
I just got my brand new iPhone 3GS. I just recently finished fully charging it and activating it. I am exploring my new device but I am getting extremely frustrated as to connecting to WiFi. I want to use WiFi for web browsing, but when I go to WiFi on my iPhone it says No Networks (or something of the sort). I try to enter in the name of my network (which I know). But I don't know what kind of security OR the password to the network.
I really want to enjoy this phone/gadget but I don't know how to set it up to connect to my network.
Can somebody help me in telling me where I can find the security type and password to my network.
Thanks!

Sounds like you (or a buddy who helped you) setup your home network to Cloak its SSID (name). Thus as you said, you need to manually enter it.
But from there, you will also need to know any Key (password) you set on it to join.
If you don't know those items, not much we can do to help (now I could always drive on by fire up airrack-ng suite and break in for ya)
You can always go to your computer, try to access your router (odds are http://192.168.1.1 ) via your browser.
Then see what settings you can get to.
If it was locked down, then I suggest going to your routers website and read up how to reset the router (odds are button on back you have to hold in for 10 secs) which will reset the router back to default settings.
All devices will then have to re-join your default network (real manual that came with router or get one online before resetting).

Help Me!!! IOS 5.1.1 update on Iphone 3gs screwed up my wifi

I updated my iphone 3gs to IOS 5.1.1 and now my wifi is interrupted.Also,internet speed slowed down.Has anyone else experienced this?How do u fix this problem?Tried and tried to find a solution.Starting to lose my cool.Had no problem with Apple products until now but am starting to lose confidence in their products.It's as if they know about this problem but don't have an answer to it.If anyone can solve this issue please,please let me know.I would be most greatful.HELP!!!

As you pointed out, turning on Compass in Location Services will only provide you the Longitude and Latitude on on the compass interface.
To enable the "True North" option you will have to turn on the "Compass Calibration". It is located in the "System Services" menu.
iOS5: Settings > Location Services > System Services
iOS6: Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services
Based on the test I just did (iPhone4 iOS6), both "Compass" and "Compass Calibration" have to be turned on for the "True North" option to be enabled in the Compass app.

I am facing wifi and mobile 2G signal issue after upgrading to IOS 6 from IOS 5 in IPhone 3GS. Please help, restoring setting even didn't helped.

I am facing wifi and mobile 2G signal issue after upgrading to IOS 6 from IOS 5 in IPhone 3GS. The mobile carrier signal as well as WIFI suddenly drops zero and are then restored automatically. Sometimes i cannot conenct to WIFI even standing infront of WIFI router. Please help, restoring setting even didn't helped.

Update: my phone's connecting to the WiFi again. I don't know what did the trick. I did nothing since reinstalling the software. It hadn't worked then, it is now. I tried connecting to my dad's phone's hotspot( he uses a Moto G), and it worked. I then tried connecting to the WiFi at a friend's house, and when I came back home, my phone was able to connect to my WiFi! Is it of any significance that my friend's router doesn't require a password? My issue has been resolved( for now; I hope I'm not counting my chickens before they've hatched). For anyone facing a similar issue, I suggest you try everything I did:
1. Turn your router off for a minimum of 30 seconds, turn it back on and try connecting.
2. Click on the WiFi network you are connected to, scroll to the bottom, tap "Renew Lease".
3. Do a soft and hard reset.
4. Reset network settings.
5. Back your data up, erase all content from settings menu, restore from backup.
6. Reinstall your software( put it in recovery mode).
I am not sure which of the above worked for me. Make sure you try everything. If none of the above works, take it to a genius bar or an authorised service provider. Good luck! :)

I have updated my computer to iTunes 10.5 and my iPhone 3Gs to OS 5 and it has wiped my music, photos and video etc. I want to load my data from my wifes computer and it refuses because that computer does not have OS 5..Help

I wanted to upgtade my iPhone software to Ver5 but it said I had to upgrade iTunes to Ver10.5. Once the updates were complete I saw that all my music,photo' and video etc had been erased from both my iTunes AND my iPhone!!!!
I tried connecting to my wifes computer and her iTunes in order to back up my music etc and it will not allow it and states that my iPhone needs iTumes Ver10.5!!
This is very inconvenient and I am scared that if I update my wifes computer to Ver 10.5 we will lose that data also and as her phone is an older 2G iPhone, Ver10.5 may not work there!!
How can I get her music etc onto my iPhone 3Gs Ver5 as ALL of my data is now lost?

i had the same problem but i just got a new video converter and made it convert videos to ipod/iphone format and then put them into itunes. i would suggest GOM encoder as the encoder can convert them and then once they're finished converting, put them automatically into your itunes for you. from there you can just sync them to your ipod.

In an iPhone 3GS (or 4G), can a user configure the WiFi power-save to extend battery life?

In an iPhone 3GS (or 4G when I upgrade), can a user configure the WiFi power-save operation to extend the battery life? For example: Can a user turn on/off WiFi power-save operation? Can a user specify WiFi sleep duration? Thanks in advance for any helpful advice.

Yikes! Thanks, Templeton. Do WiFi app programmers have control over power-save settings? For example, can a first VoIP app be more energy-efficient than a second VoIP app?
