Iphone 3gs not working properly after update to ios4

I updated my 3gs to ios4 and have had nothing but problems since doing so. My battery is draining faster than ever, I have had problems syncing with the exchange server at work which has always worked perfectly before, my reception is horrible in places where it used to be just fine, such as my house. I am constantly dropping calls in my house where I know my phone worked just fine before. I know Apple says their formula for figuring signal strength is inaccurate and has been for years, but that really has nothing do to with the fact that my phone used to work at my house and now it doesn't. Regardless of what the signal shows, I know I used to talk on my phone at my house and now it's a real pain in the a** to try to get through a conversation. Also many of my apps such as weather and stock apps will not update sometimes for a couple of days, no matter where I am or what the signal strength says. Has anyone else had a combination of these problems and if so any luck fixing any of them?
Thanks

Apple release an article after iOS4 came out about downloading a new exchange file
Seen here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3398
I would start by doing this fix and see if that helps out any of your issues.
I would suggest to sync everything and then back it up, restore your device to 'new', download this new exchange fix and then either restore your phone or better, re-sync you phone.
Good Luck

Applications not working properly after updating t...

After eventually updating to symbian Anna, I've noticed that some applications are not working properly, notably AccuWeather and Facebook. Uninstalled AccuWeather and re-installed it but still didn't work . Seems pointless releasing a software update and then to discover that applications from Ovi store won't work on your device! With Facebook I can only login in to my account but when I go to view a friend etc, it shuts down.
Has anyone any suggestions or solutions to the problem?
Thanks

i updated to the latest version 025.007 on my E7 too and a lot of the apps on the store dont work. Just blank screens.
Somebody do something!!
I use other devices, and havent faced this problem with any of them after an upgrade!

Camera led is not working properly after update

After updating to IOS 6.0.1 led is not working properly.
When filming , the led is burning very weak, and when lightsetting is turned to
automatic not at all.

Reset your phone first, hold the home and off button down until the apple symbol comes up. If that doesnt do it, then do a restore from your backup in itunes.

Automator not working properly after updating to OS 10.10.2

I just updated to 10.10.2 and Automator in Safari is not working properly. I set up 10 URLs to open but only the first 4 open. The rest give a message "You can't open Safari because it is not responding". Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
Using an iMac 21.5, late 2013

Happen to me too. Looks like a Bug. Installed 10.9.2 and it turned on Safari in the iCloud Sytem Preferences.
Thank god I had a backup. And then my wife logged into the same computer and it messed them up again.
I wish I knew where the iCloud bookmark file was. I've tried goggling it, ut no luck.
So If at one point in time if you turn it on it uploads the bookmark file somewere in the cloud, then you turn it off then change your bookmarks to something differnet it's OK. Just don't turn it on again.
Hopefully the bug was on the software update!

Camera lock screen iPhone 5 not working properly after upgrade to iOS 8

After I installed iOS 8 on the iPhones 5 of my and my wife's the camera on the lock screen isn't working properly anymore. When I swipe up, the camera starts but the screen turns black within less then a second.
On the iPad 2 and the iPad Air (both upgraded to iOS 8) I don't have this problem. It seems to be iPhone 5 specific.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Having the same problem. I'm on an iPhone 5 and I have updated to 8.0.2. When I go to apps directly from the lock screen (timer, calculator, camera) it opens up then immediately turns into a black screen. It appears that removing my passcode fixes this bug, but I can't have an unsecured phone. Please help Apple!

IPhone no longer working properly after update...

Ok... i cannot use the phone "as a phone" unless i use speaker mode or a headset?!?!
i have verified the mic is actually working by recording a voice message... it played back fine; however, the meter never registered my voice?!?! any ideas??? i do not believe it is stuck in headphone mode because i have adjusted the volume with and without headphones plugged in, it does change to say "headphones".
although... i do not remember seeing "RINGER" when i adjusted the volume before??? what does this mean? any ideas on what the problem could be?? and no, the phone was not dropped right before or after the update... it worked prior to updating just fine... now it doesn't?!?!

I had the same issues. You need to do a total restore of your phone. Connect to iTunes and then do a restore as a new phone. This will wipe out all of your settings, playlists, contacts, photos, etc. And you'll have to reselect all of the aps you want loaded from your iTunes back up but it immediately solve all of my problems.

Windows 8.1 Not Working Properly after Updating Boot Camp Drivers to 5.1

Hi all!
Recently I had a problem with the sound in Windows 8.1 using BC v5. That problem was resolved by updating the Boot Camp Drivers to 5.1. Now I've more problems than before.
1. Some service are not loading at all at the startup (which did before)
The Boot Camp service is not loading automatically at startup, other Windows Services are not loading at the startup after updating the Boot Camp Drivers (Windows Update)
2. Microsoft Office cannot verify license for the product.
This problem is due to the services that won't start automatically. I can't even do a repair of MS Office 2013... Even though it's a legal version of MS Office.
There are many many more problems I think... I just haven't discovered them yet which is very very annoying. When I was using Windows 8.1 with the Boot Camp Drivers version 5 there were few bugs than now...
Please is there any notice of these errors? Or am I the only one who is experiencing these errors??? Please give me some answers!
Thanks in advance!!

I updated them by downloading the zip file from the Apple site...
I've just updated Mac OS X and it seems that this was the solution... Everything works fine! (For now)

Why Mail does not work properly after updated to Mountain Lion?

I updated to ML two days ago and my Mail is not working. I can read but cannot reply because there is no cursor. Restarted a few times, no change. Anybody has the same problem??
Rudh

I forgot to mention (and add a new level of strangeness) that Mail is retreiving all of my messages from my personal (AT&T) account without issue.
And I just discovered an even bigger problem: all of my emails from my Sent and other folders from my work account are completely gone!
I may have no choice but to revert to my Lion system as of yesteday, before I installed ML.

Bluetooth not working properly after upgrade to iOS4

I upgraded my iPhone 3g to iOS4 the other day. Apart from running stupid slow now, and even though i've done numerous hard resets, the bluetooth doesn't work properly anymore.
If I switch off bluetooth, then switch it on, it connects fine. Once I disconnect though, that's it. I have to restart it again.
Looks like all those complaints about iphone 4 are actually and iOS4 BUG.
I wish I'd never upgraded now. Actually, that's not true. I wish Apple would help me DOWNGRADE my iphone 3g so i can use it again. I will not go and buy and iphone 4 just cos of this. If anything I'll switch to Android just because a) i'm not a fanboy and b) consumers should not be treated in such a belligerent manner.
So, anyone know how to resolve this bluetooth issue? It's got to the point where it's dangerous in the car because my phone rings and I have to recycle the bluetooth to connect it.

The problem you are having following the upgrade to Leopard (10.5.6) from 10.3.9 is similar to those of people who have upgraded from Tiger, and has been covered by the support document at the link below:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2537
Your issue will be due to files named to include MessageSorting (which would mean you once have upgraded from a version of OSX earlier than 10.4), remove those, also, but never restore those. You will not have the files named to include MessageRules because you have not used Tiger.
To find the correct location for the Mail folder, open a Finder window, click on the icon of a house in the Sidebar (this is known often as "Home"), click on Library in that Home user directory, and then to open the Mail folder found there.

IPhone 3gs volume very low after updating to iOS4.2.1???

After updating to ios 4.2.1 my iphone volume has lowered to much extent.
Now it is hardly audible. And please don't tell me to check volume limit because it is already off.
Keyboard clicks are hardly audible.
iPod volume has also lowered.
Volume of every application is too silent.
SO please help me out of this.

I had the same problem and tried to change to a different languge and then back to english and as soon as I did that my volume limit is back to its highest level as before so it worked for me. Worth trying guys! Hope it works for you cos I know it didn't work for some.

Push Not Working Properly After Update. How To Downgrade?

I have a 3Gs with a few apps that use push (BeejiveIM, Prowl, Aardvark), but when I updated from 3.0 to 3.0.1, it broke all push notifications.
Being too busy at the time to do anything about it, I just let it go and waited for 3.1 to be released, hoping that would fix the problem, but it didn't. Now here I am 2 months later and push is still broken. I have even gone so far as to restore the phone and then set it up as a new phone so as to not transfer any potentially bad backup settings... no luck.
I finally called Apple this week and after an hour on the phone, they just said there was nothing they could do and that hopefully the next firmware update would resolve the problem.
Well, I'm tired of putting up with this and really want to just downgrade my phone back to 3.0 until Apple can fix the problem in a future update. The trouble is, I can't seem find any way to downgrade a 3Gs from 3.1.
Can anyone point me to a way to get back to 3.0 firmware?
Thanks.

I'm surprised. I downloaded Beejive yesterday based on reading a positive comment on it in a thread here (one I cannot now find). My sense is that the poster was using it successfully with OS 3.1.
You might want to take your 3GS to an Apple Store and get some help with the push notifications -- which should be working with OS 3.1.

IMAP Gmail not working properly after update ?

I have setup my Gmail account using IMAP on my Mac.
I also have Gmail setup on my iphone, again as IMAP.
When I read the emails on my iphone, it is synced with my gmail account, as I see it change on the web.
However, my Apple Mail still shows it as unread, and does until I read it.
This has only happened since I updated to 10.5.6
Has anyone else any similar issues ?

Bummer. Forget what I said. (Well, you can try it...)
Working from home today. Mac Mail, Gmail, and Mail on iPod touch. Only Mail on my Mac doesn't get the word on "read" messages.
I stand corrected and please forgive me.
Rebuild did this for me, as suggested. Of course, something is broken and one should not have to Rebuild. (It strikes me that it is better/easier just to reread the darn things if, as in my case, we're talking about just a few messages.)

Themes not working properly after updating to Bell...

I updated to Belle Refresh on my Nokia C7-00 via OTA update...
However recently I have noticed that while changing the theme (installed in E:/ ) it is taking too as long as 10 minutes to change all its icons, and other things...
However if I close the process in midway and restart my phone, the phone loads up completely with the theme.
Nokia Evolve theme also showing same problem.
Please help...

Many or most 3rd party themes is just causing problems. Uninstall them all and keep the original Evolve. Restart the phone and the phone will work without unexplainable hick ups.... I have facing this kind of issues many times during the last year on devices like Nokia 700, 701 and Nokia E6.
For the moment only 2 themes is working more or less without problems on for example Nokia 701,
1. Lilac sunrise by Hank
2. Min. Green - Giulio7g
Of course there are more themes but just saying that many many themes just messing things up.
Just my experience in the themes abyss here...
I cant understand why Nokia only have one theme in the firmware, there used to be at least 2 or more ealier. It is very nice to have different themes when using situations...former nokia situations now situations byPastilli labs. I use it now and recomend it for what it worth.
Nokia 808 again (delight Belle), Nokia E7 and X7 ( again, all on Delight Belle...after some time on Nokia Lumia 925 (retired), 1020 (not that great)and Lumia 820 (Replaced my router at home, great for internet sharing).., N9 The best device ever (use it as much as Lumia 1020), Nokia 700 (Sport Phone/My Love :-) ) Nokia 701, Nokia E6 (Should have a follow-up from Nokia among with larger screen, NFC, Autofocus), Lumia 800 (Retired After 6 weeks), -Sports Tracker-Nokia Internet Radio-Handy Safe-Skype-Bambuser-Screenshot app pro-fMobi-ComingNext-Manual TaskSwitcher-jagiTimer-Easy StopWatch-Boldbeast-Equalizer-Financial Calculator-WiMP Music-YTasks-Davi-Thumbnail Folders-BizCalendar-Tiny7-Situations-nn reeder-Sport Timer-CameraLover-CameraPro-GrabRadio-LiveScore-Poddi-Gravity-SkyFilesPro

My iPhone is not functioning properly after update.

I recently updated my phone to the newest iOS update.
Now all of a sudden if it is not on charge the screen just remains black completely.
If it is connected to a source of power, it's charger it just keep flashing
By this I mean the Apple logo appears for around a particular amount of time, only then to disappear to a black screen for maybe three-to-five odd seconds and repeat itself once again( I've looked on videos to see the apple logo stay on others, unlike mine flashes).
My iPhone is a five, I live in the UK, I cannot go to apple until later so I'd prefer to get this fixed instantly.
If anyone has a good way to solve this please comment and explain in understandable fluent English as I need this solved ASAP.

Remove any screen protectors or cases, does that resolve the problem?
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.
