IPhone 4 Alarm Issue (US edition)

So this morning I wanted to get up early to vote and set three alarms: 5:30a, 5:45a and 6a. Obsessive behavior aside, I used two "everyday" alarms (repeats everyday) at 5:30a and 6a, and a one-time-only alarm at 5:45a.
To my chagrin, the 5:30a alarm actually went off at 4:30a. Ditto for the 6a alarm, it went off at 5a. The one-time-only alarm went off at 5:45a, as scheduled. In all cases, the iPhone clock was accurate (so the clock wasn't off) and the alarm settings had not changed (all setting say 5:30a, 5:45a and 6a). It just seems that somewhere deep in the phone is an hour off.
This has never happened before this morning. I know the Europeans have been having trouble because their alarms *did not* trigger the end of Daylight Savings Time this week. But this almost seems to be the inverse of that problem.
Anyone else having this issue? Thoughts on how to fix it?

I have been using the iPhone alarm for years now, and have never had an issue until now. Since I work at a different time every day, I have staggered alarms set to let me know when to wake up, when my shower time is up, and when I need to get my tail out the door. I use the Repeat "Every Day" selected, then I just change the times the night before. Since Sunday, October 31st, all of the alarms have gone off an hour early and with five alarms per day, I find this extraordinarily annoying. I have tried resetting the alarms, rebooting the phone and searching Apple's website for answers. It seems that so far, they have only acknowledged the European alarm issues. I find it very disappointing that they haven't admitted to even being aware of the problem, and following the tech support option only leads me to the pay for support option. It's your bug Apple, own up to it! Who thought it was a good idea to write a program where the alarm doesn't use the system time? A second year Computer Science major should know better...

Iphone 5 alarm issue

I want to use my iphone as my alarm clock and i want to wake up to a song, I created a new alarm, set it to the song i wanted, adjusted the time, but when its time to sound, no music. Only seems to work on vibrate or ringtone. I've tried everything, turning off vibrate, making sure my sound was on and volume up. Anybody else having this issue? Before i turned off vibrate entirely, i would just vibrate over and over. Now, this morning, it was just silent, luckily i just woke up. I turned on my phone and it showed the alarm notification but no sound. I'm at a lost trying to figure it out. My Ipad 4th gen, iOS 6, seems to be fine though.

Hello star2777,
I want to recommend the troubleshooting in this article.
Archived - iPhone: No ring or sound from built-in speaker
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1205
If that does not resolve the issue, I recommend sections 1, 3, and 5 of our iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant found here http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/. If you get to step 3 I recommend closing ALL the apps. Here is step 1 to get you started:
Restart iPhone
To restart iPhone, first turn iPhone off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider and iPhone will turn off after a few moments.
Next, turn iPhone on by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Is iPhone not responding? To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If your device does not turn on or displays a red battery icon, try recharging next.
All the best,
Sterling

Iphone 4 5.1 alarm issues still

Why did my up-to-date iphone 4 alarm that was set for 4:25 and 4:35 am EST sound at 4:52 and 4:53 am EST? I even showed my wife, who has had her own share of iphone 4S problems, and she was bewildered.

It's not set for the time that you believe it is.

This should get your itunes store connection working.
Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Impossible to display a Numbers doc in my iPad or iPhone if the file was edited in Numbers for OSX

Hi,
I've created a Numbers spreadsheet in the Numbers app for iPhone.
Later, I've edited this file with Numbers for OS-X.
Since, I'm no more able to display this file in my iPhone or iPad. Indeed, in Numbers iOS, when I click on the file icon, there is a strange error message displayed (the original message is in French, So, excuse me if the translation is not perfect):
"The spreadsheet can not be imported. An unknowned error occured."
I've tried to duplicate the spreadsheet in Numbers OS-X, change some data, colors, ... but the pb is still there.
Does anyone have an idea ?
thanks, and regards
Marc

Hi Thierry09,
I see what you're doing. I just tried going through Dropbox here and I get the English version of your message: "Spreadsheet can't be imported."
I think this may be a Dropbox issue. Dropbox used to display Numbers documents, I think, before the recent Numbers iOS upgrade. They probably need to update their app.
I like Dropbox. But is there a reason you need to use Dropbox for Numbers? Numbers syncs very well now via iCloud (iCloud has gotten a lot better in my experience) so you don't have to fuss with Open in ... and all that, the way you do with Dropbox.
If you want to give iCloud sync a try then on your iOS device you need to make sure it is switched to On in two places:
   Settings>iCloud>Documents & Data>Numbers.
   Settings>Numbers>Use iCloud.
And on your Mac:
   System Preferences>iCloud>Documents & Data>Options>Numbers.app.
With iCloud sync enabled the Numbers documents appear automatically on iOS and you'll be able to see your documents online as well from any modern browser, should you ever need that.
You can still back up your documents outside iCloud. On the Mac they are located in a folder you can reach in Finder by option Go>Library>Mobile Documents>com~apple~Numbers. On iOS you can email them to yourself or send to iTunes.

IPhone 5 Calendar Issue: January 1, 1995

I flew from the Eastern Time Zone into Central Time Zone, which is my home time zone, this afternoon, and tonight my iPhone 5 is telling me the date is January 1, 1995. Can anyone help explain why this is happening, and/or how to fix it? It sometimes switches back to the correct date, but only for a minute or less. I have restarted my phone twice and it has not worked, even when I kept my phone off for over an hour. When the date is January 1st, 1995, I cannot send texts, or go onto the internet, or use any apps using data. PLEASE HELP!!
Much thanks

When is apple going to release a iPhone 5 alarm clock? The lack of accessories for the iPhone 5 is really making me wish I would have just kept my 4s.

Hi - There is an alarm choice at the bottom of the clock app - is this what you are looking for?

How do I upload pictures from iphone 5c and iPhoto for editing in photoshop elements 12 please?

I used to be able to edit all my iphoto pictures in PSE10. I set the advanced section of preferences in iphoto to edit in PSE. Since installing Photoshop Elements 12, I cannot get the transfer into PSE of the photos (unedited and unreduced) to work.
The general preferences only give a camera the options of connecting to iphoto, aperture, image capture, or, no application. Assuming my phone is a camera for editing purposes, I would like to give it the option of connecting to PSE 12.
Also, I would like to import my photos from the iphone 5C into PSE12 for editing. There is an import action in PSE12 which does not seem to work with the imac and iphone.
In addition, my email application is greyed out in the general preferences; I use Microsoft Outlook for Mac.
How can I change the settings in 'general' and 'advanced' preferences to work for me, Please?
Thanks

Changed Apple ID password and now Iphone 6 having issues

I had to reset my password when signing into my apple ID and now my Iphone is having issues. I can not use imessage. Under settings, It will not allow me to turn it on. Also under settings my facetime and iCloud are greyed out. I can using os8.1.2 What am I missing?

I had the exact same problem and this solution from another thread worked for me:
"I was able to fix it by entering another email address even though it was wrong/invalid. Once I got the "incorrect email/password" message I then re-entered my actual apple ID and it finally took it. Make sure FaceTime is enabled and working first."
In the FaceTime App, I entered a fictitious Apple ID and password. Then it actually signed me out. After that, I entered my AppleID and my new password and it did verify my email address.

That often happens with cameras when you take pictures of a computer screen. LCD screens "flicker" and the camera will often catch the flicker.
