IOS4.1 Iphone 4 - carrier name changes from 'O2' to 'TESCO'

iOS4.1 Iphone 4 - carrier name changes from 'O2' to 'TESCO'
Does anyone know if this can be changed back without jailbreaking/downgrading OS? thanks.

I've seen this on two handsets, both after updating the IOS from 4.0.2 to 4.1.0 so I presume the Tesco operator logo has now been included in the OS where it wasn't before. Tesco is an MVNO operating on the o2 network, you can set your own logo to be displayed without jailbreaking, a quick search on google returned a couple of results. Post back if you have any success!

Locating Phone w/ Find My iPhone When Login Name Changed on Icloud

My son had his iPhone 6 stolen and it was registered on Find My iPhone. About 10 days after it was stolen, while we were periodically monitoring iCloud to see if it ever got turned-on, my son changed his login name & password on iCloud. So now we has two devices (iPhone 6 & iPad) with the old name on them with corresponding passwords, and his iCloud account with a new name & a new password.
To add perspective on my question, even though the iPad had the old name & old password, it was located on his iCloud Find My iPhone map & iCloud would indicate when the iPad was turned on or off. Just to confirm, his iCloud account has a new login name & new password.   What I'd like to find out is since there appears to still be a linkage between his iCloud account and his iPad, would it follow that there would continue to be a linkage with his iPhone 6 (old name/old password) and his iCloud account. If the linkage continues, we would continue to monitor his iCloud in case the phone gets turned on; if not, we will of course just have to move on.   Thanks very much for any help with this.

I've learned a lot about Apple Customer Service and this forum through the unfortunate theft of my son's phone. First of all, the customer service people at Apple are poorly trained. My first 4 calls during the theft resulted in totally different answers by 4 different people. One techy from Florida was adamant that we would not receive an email if the stolen phone was connected to the internet via wifi/or 4g. He, of course, was completely wrong, and this is about as basic an issue as you can get with Find My iPhone. And I continue to wait, going on close to a week now, for what should have been a fairly routine question from a "tier 2" or Senior Adviser as they're called, for an answer to our question.
When I stumbled upon this Apple "Support" Community, I was elated. I thought, at last there's bound to be someone here who could give us some help, perhaps an Apple employee that hangs out here and tries to "be there" for their customers. Well, after waiting about 3 days and seeing that over 100 people have read my question, I am frankly surprised that not even one person has offered any help at all!   Based on my personal experiences with the Apple Customer Service Department and this Apple Support Community, I am not impressed.
I am very familiar with the way a good tech forum works and quickly learned this is not such a forum. I realized I had to go somewhere else to look which I did. I found another Apple forum (not run by Apple btw), and I posted the exact same question.   I received a reply within 20 minutes.   I suspect I will receive more throughout the day with the kind of advice and help I was hoping to get through Apple Customer Service and/or this Support Forum.
My reason for posting this comment to your support community is to let other new people realize there are other much, much better places on the internet to look for help and support with their Apple problems and issues.

Iphone recognized as a digital camera

my iphone is connected to my computer via usb and itunes does not recognize the device the computer thinks it is an iphone digital camera

It's okay that your computer thinks that your iPhone is a "digital still camera", however it does not use the Apple Mobile Device driver like it should. The solution is simple and doesn't require re-installing iTunes.
1. Plug in your iPhone into any USB port.
2. Go to Control Panel, System, Hardware, Device Manager.
3. Find 'iPhone', probably under 'imaging devices'.
4. Right click on iPhone.
5. Click on Update Driver, Install from a specific location, Don't search I will choose the driver to install.
6. Find the folder with the iPhone driver. It is very likely that is in:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
7. Use the text box to point to that iPhone driver directory.
8. Open iTunes and your iPhone should show up in the Device section.
Good luck!

File name changes when I sync videos

As title says, when ever I load a video into my 3Gs Iphone the file name changes to a numerical one.
How do I keep the original file name?
As it is I can only sync 1 video at a time then rename it before adding another.

Oops, Just realised I put this n the wrong forum. Just to clarify this is prerecorded video files.

I am having this problem. At first with the new iPhone 5, and then with the iPad 2. I am not sure why this is happening.
My gut feeling is this is an iO6 issue and here's why -
The problem mainly occurs with apps. I have about 150 apps, and when I plugged in the phone, iTunes went to sync all of them. The process would hang up after about 20 - 30 apps were loaded onto the phone. I could tell where about the process hung up because the apps on the phone showed up as "waiting".
Then on the iPad 2 I plugged in to sync and saw there was a huge "Other" component in my storage. It required me to restore the iPad 2 from backup. With this restore the same issues occurred - putting the apps back on the iPad would hang up. The videos on the iPad also got stuck - maybe after about 10 hours of videos transfered iTunes crashed.
My solution has been to soft reset the device, restart Windows, and continue the process until it's complete. This is remarkably inefficient and time-intensive but everything works with patience.
I have been wondering if others have had these same problems.

Windows thinks my ipod touch is a digital camera. How do I change this so itunes can see it?

Windows thinks my ipod touch is a digital camera. How can I change the device in windows, so that i can re-register it as an ipod and itunes can connect with it.?

It is normal for the iPod to be seen as a camera since that is how one gets photo off the iPod. You can turn it off by:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Disabling digital camera notification in Windows XP
To get iTunes to see you iPod see:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
If you previoulys installed camera or scanner software that may be causing the problem.

My Computer Only recognizes My IPhone 4 As A Digital Camera

When I plug my iPhone into my laptop, it does not show up in iTunes. I'm running windows 7 with iTunes version 10.0.1.22. When I run a diagnostic in iTunes it says that no iPhone is connected, I have tried different USB ports, different USB cables, I have uninstalled iTunes and have tried removing, disabling my iPhone which is recongized in device manager under portable devices, and I followed some instructions in services to fix this problem, but at this moment can't remember what it was at this moment.
Now I know a few other people are experiencing this problem but one diffence I have noticed is that my phone Shows up in my computer as a digital camera, other people have not reported this issue.
So if anyone can help with this conundrum, many thanks

The iPhone is two separate devices, a digital camera and an iPod. It is normal for it to be recognized as a digital camera when there are photos in the camera roll; this is to allow you to transfer the photos to your computer.
The iPod should also launch iTunes, then appear in the left panel of the iTunes screen. If it doesn't your iTunes installation is corrupted or you have USB driver problems. To diagnose the problem first make sure you are connecting the phone to a USB port directly on the computer, not to a hub.
Next launch Task Manager (CTRLSHIFTESC). Click on the Processes tab then Image Name to sort on the name. Look for AppleMobileDeviceService.exe. If it is not present that is your problem. If it is the best solution is to completely uninstall then reinstall iTunes. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925.
If the mobile service is not running to to Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services. Find the service, right click on it and launch it. If you get an error your firewall or antivirus may have disabled it.

PC thinks my iPhone 3GS is a Digital Camera, not visible in Itunes

Hope someone can help
I bought the 3GS iPhone 32gb today and went to register on my PC and when connected to the uSB ports it was detected as a camera and only gives me the option of Photo Shop etc
It is also visible in 'My Computer' as a camera
I tried various USB ports as I believed only half where USB 2.0 the same happened after each restart, so I bought a new PCI USB 2.0 card and tried it through that with the same issue.
The Iphone works normally on another PC but obviously I want it to sync to my PC and Music
Latest version of Itunes installed
Restarted comp several times
Closed various security software on my PC temporarily
Any help much appreciated

This is normal; it IS a digital camera, and this is how you get photos off it.

Open Task Manager (CTRLSHIFTESC), click on the Processes tab and the Image Name column to sort on name. Then look for AppleMobileDeviceService.exe (AMDS). If it is present then your problem is most likely a USB driver problem; try updating the USB drivers. If it is NOT present go to Control Panels, Administrative Tasks and launch Services. Find the entry for AMDS, right click on it and choose Start.

Iphone shows as Digital Camera on XP Pro. Problem?

I'm on my second 3G S because of problems syncing (disk cannot be found, read from, written to messages). I just noticed under My Computer that it is listed as a Digital Camera, not as a hard drive or as removable media.
Anyone think this could be the cause of my syncing problems?
Anyone know how to change this?

Itunes wont read iphone, thinks it's a digital camera...help

I dont know what happened, but when I first got my PC with vista 64, and had itunes installed with the iphone, everything worked. 3 days ago I reformatted my drives and reinstall windows and all my programs. I got itunes working with all my music and whatnot, but when I plug my iphone in to toss music on it, itunes wont read it. Windows knows it's there, but everytime I plug it in, the lower right hand corner the "windows is installing new driver blah blah" pops up, and then get an error message saying it couldnt install the driver. I go to device manager and windows thinks it's a digital camera. I did the whole update driver with the "c:\windows\system32\drivestore\usbaapl_" thing, and I got this message:
Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it.
(usb icon) Apple Mobile Device USB Driver
The system cannot find the file specified."
I have been googling the crap out of this and I am at wit's end with this. I've uninstalled/reinstalled itunes, cleaned registry, wiped all apple programs from the PC, anything google told me to, hahaha. Serious, I cant find any forum or web article to help me past this point. Please help...

I think I got it. I've had the same problem as you and many others. I went to device manager and found iPhone under imaging devices. Here's what I did:
Right-click -> properties -> driver tab -> update drivers (launches Hardware Update Wizard) select...
No, not this time (next) Install from a list ... (next) Don't search ... (next) Now there should be two choices under model. Select the Apple Mobile Device. This is not digitally signed so you'll get warnings but continue. When I did this iTunes picked up my iPhone right away.

At the starting iphone showed up in my computer as digital camera then i installed itunes. and now iphone isnt showing in my computer neither in itunes :(

i have recently bought iphone 3GS and when connected it to pc it showed up in my computer named as digital camera .. itunes was not installed at that time. then i installed itunes. and tried to connect it since then iphone isnt showing in my computer neither in itunes

TS1493 When I go to change the drive letter, I go through the entire process and when I click on disk management, my ipod is not listed. On my computer it is still listed as a digital camera

I have searched online and tried all the possibilities to fix the issues I am having but have sadly been unsuccessful. My ipod is being read as a digital camera, it is not reading on my itunes therefore I cannot sync any music or apps I have purchased. The only solution I couldn't try was to change my drive letter. Main reason being, my device did not show up under the disk management page.

If you have pictures (on your iPod) in the Camera Roll, that may be why the iPod is showing up as a camera. The Camera Roll is where pictures taken on the iPod, screenshots taken on the iPod and pictures saved from Safari are stored.
Copy the pictures from the Camera Roll and put them onto yuor computer. Once you have done that, you can delete the pictures from the Camera Roll and perhaps the iPod will stop showing up as a camera.
The iPod Touch does not have an accessible hard drive, so it will not show up under disk management.

HT1923 my ipod touch is showing as a digital camera but it doesn't have a camera. How do I change that?

I have a ipod touch and an iphone. Now, when I connect the ipod touch it says it can't read the contents and to restore it, which I did. It was fine for that day but the next it said the same thing, to restore it. How do I get this to work. It had said to delete the back up file but it didn't say how to do it. Also it shows in my computer as a digital camera but it doesn't have one.

My windows 7 computer thinks my iPhone is a digital camera.

My windows 7 computer recognises my iphone as a digital camera so we cant sync an iphone 4 to my computer and we cant set up an iphone 5 through itunes.
Please help.

An iOS device with one or more pictures in the camera roll appears as a camera to Windows Explorer. You can copy and paste the files to a new location, then return to the device to delete the originals once they have been safely copied from it. Don't connect more than one device at the same time. If iTunes still cannot detect the device try restarting both the device and the computer and check the cable works with another device (though I guess you've already done that).
