IPhone 4 to ios7 all text typed hangs making it almost impossible to text or email
I updated my iphone4 to iOS 7 and immediately I found that whenever I typed text in emails , notes or emails the text hung. I would like to go back to iOS 6 but this seems not to be possible. Has anyone had a similar problem and how did they fix it. All suggestions appreciated.
I did not have this issue when I upgraded my iPhone 4 from iOS 6.1.3 to iOS 7.0. Perhaps if you were to make a full backup of your iPhone, then restore as factory and recover from your full backup it would help.
I will add a note that on my iPhoen 4, I do not have and facebook integration activated, althgough I think I may have Twitter integration active. I run very few apps on my iPhone 4, I use it mostly as a glorified iPod Touch since I upgraded to an iPhone 5 for my phone features. Still, I have upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS 7 and it doesn't seem to have any problems with lag or really with battery life. If you are having battery lif issues as well, I would suggest you check for something hung. Perhaps a hung outbound email, or something else tieing up CPU cycles trying to clear something that just keeps getting an error.

I hav just upgrade my iphone 4 to ios7, and it's hanging a lot there are latency. What should I do. I want to downgrade this ios 7
You cannot downgrade.
Try a reset (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays, see if it has cleared things up.
If not, then go to Settings and check all of your settings. If you have lots of Location Services turned on that you don't need, turn them off. Turn off Bluetooth when you are not using it. Turn off Background App refresh, turn off cellular roaming, etc.

I use iPhone, iPad and MacPro, all works fine but the newly purchased iMac does not receive emails on time - always later than other devices. Why and how to fix?
Go to Mail Preferences
Click on the General tab
Set "Check for New Messages:" to "Every Minute"
Hope this helps -
My iPhone has suddenly started sending texts from email address. Any ideas on how to fix?
Hi my iPhone has just started sending texts from email account. This only happens when the text is sent to other iPhone users. Weirdly it jumps between normal text address and back to email. Any ideas?
When I turn iMessage off, it sends from my phone number. When I turn it back on and check the caller ID, it has my phone number checked, however, when I start texting again, people are still receiving the messages from my email. Any advice?

My girlfriend is having a problem not getting all of my texts. As far as we know, it is only happening to texts from my phone. They are showing as sent on the Galaxy S6, but do not show up, ever, on her iPhone 5. The missing messages are random.

BB Q5 lost all text msgs, emails, call lost
Hello,
Please advice my Q5 suddenly lost yestarday all emails and text messages, and the call log just cleared itself.
I havent done any update or software change lately.
Any idea ?
Thanks,
TomasThe latter. Your email should restore from your email server as part of reintegrating the account to the device. But SMS messages are probably lost, along with call logs and other things. Depending on how your device is configured, you may get other things also back from your email server (e.g., contacts and calendar, if you were using your email server as your primary storage for those).
The time to take backups of priceless data is before things go wrong. If you were taking regular backups of your data, then you'd have that as the source of a restore. If you took no backups, then that was a risk you chose to take. After all, there are only two kinds of computing device users: those who have lost data, and those who will. Migrating from the latter to the former is often a very painful experience.
Hence, btw, no one can guarantee that you won't lose things again...hence the importance of regular backups, to protect your priceless data in the event of a failure of the (commodity) device.
Good luck! -
How do I configure my iphone 4s to listen to text messages?
How do I configure my iphone 4s to listen to text or email messages?
I'm not sure what you mean... Do you want your phone to speak your texts so that you can hear them instead of reading them?

IPhone 5 iOS7 - Sending text to multiple recipients.
I have recently upgraded from my trusty iPhone 3GS to an iPhone 5 with iOS7. The phone is locked to the UK O2 Network.
When abroad multiple recipient text could be sent incurring a European Text Message Cost of 6p per recipient. So far so good. Idid not use data when I was abroad as I had the Roaming option off.
When back in the UK I tried to send Multiple Recipeint texts only to find there was a problem.
The recipeint received a message saying that I had sent them a Media Message without the text being included. I incurred a 33p cost per multiple text instead od the texts being free.
I have never paid for texts before as I am on an unlimited text tariff.
Any suggestions other than sending each text individually.
O2 seem to be aware of this issue.
Is it an iOS7 issue, or an iPhone 5 issue?
This was never a problem with my iPhone 3GS.
Many thanks.I have just read this on the Apple Site:
"iOS: Understanding group messaging
Learn about group messaging.
You can send a message to multiple recipients using SMS, MMS, and iMessage.
Group messaging allows you to send messages to multiple people and have any responses delivered to everyone in the group. Group messaging works with iMessage and MMS.
If you send a message to multiple recipients without group messaging in use by the sender and all recipients, an individual message will go to each recipient using either SMS or MMS. Responses to these messages will be delivered only to the original sender in separate messaging threads."
This would suggest that Multiple Recipient Text do not necessarily need MMS.
It would seem that unless MMS is prevented then Multiple Recipient Texts will default to MMS.
I have switched off data and have been able to send Multiple Recipient Texts which the recipient has been able to read as texts. -
I deleted a contact out of my iPhone 4S but when I go to send a message the contact appears although that individual is no longer in my address book. I deleted all text and call history pertaining to the deleted contact but still shows up. Does anyone have the same issue and how do I fix it?

I have the Iphone 5S. Over the last few days, I continually get mail delivery errors when imessages are sent to any contacts who have iphones. I have spoken to my friends/ family who are also on the receiving/ sending end of my messages. They also say that they are receiving an error/ mail delivery error when they send imessages to my phone. Text messages are working fine (with other phones that are not iphones) and no delivery errors come up. However, it is just with me sending or receiving imessages. I have gone in to settings> messages> send & receive and all my information is right. I have also attempted to cut the phone off and back on (hard reset as well) and this has not fixed the problem. I then explored to see if my software was out of date, however, i have the most up to date software for the iphone 5 S. Does anyone know of a way to fix this problem, as it is annoying to both me and anyone else who has an iphone that sends me a text/ imessage as it will *alert* that there was a delivery failure.
Please help!!There could be a problem with iMessage, although usually when there is an outage these boards are flooded with problems. It could be a very isolated issue, and if just started all of a sudden, it might be something at Apple.
Although it is annoying, I would just wait it out a few days and see if it goes away on its own. -
I have just updated my software on my iPhone 4S to IOS7.0.4 now I have lost many of my contacts. Can anyone suggest an easy way to reinstate them. (Without having to add them all again as I don't know what I have lost until I need it).
Try assigning Queen as the Album Artist on the compilations in iTunes on your computer.

When I upgraded my iPhone 4s to IOS7, I lost all my app icons. Where did they go? Interestingly they are still listed in notifications and I could play words with friends when I got a message on the home screen that it was my turn (but still no icon)
Hey linfrommi,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are having trouble locating some application after the update to iOS 7. To troubleshoot this issue, let’s reset the home screen layout of your iPhone, which should move all of your applications to the second “page”:
Reset iPhone settings - iPhone

Reset Home Screen Layout: Returns the built-in apps to their original layout on the Home screen.

After I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS7 I can no longer see the individual chapters when playing my audio books. Also I can no longer edit a and copy multiple text messages like before. Is there a way to do these things I am missing?
Not only can i not see the individual chaptes -- apparently like you and everyone else suffering through the "improved" iOS7 -- when my audiobook repeats a "file" within chapter, which it sometimes does, I cannot get "inside" the chapter and move forward to where I'm supposed to be.
Whatever happened to "if it ain broke.......???
