Iphone 4 upgrade to ios 5 has caused many problems

Including lost apps, incomplete syncs (always times out at last step), lost music, itunes now hangs and needs to be killed by windows. Truly wish I hadn't bothered.

Sounds like you will need to do a restore but don't restore from backup... Treat the phone like a new phone when you restore. It will wip everything. First you want to get all your camera roll pictures off the phone and into a folder in your pictures.
Once the phone is initialized you will have to check or uncheck all the apps you want and music and your photo folders from you my pictures folder taht you want. Then Sync.
On Itunes you may want to turn off the Sync when I connect option so you don't have to stop a sync in progress when you plug in. Then you can make all your choices and sync when finished. I once ran into a problem after stopping the sync that automatically kicked off when I plugged in

  • HT4061 my i phone5 is brought from canada it was gifted by my big bro it has causing many problem it was under warranty can this warranty valid in india

    my iphone giving me many problems like hanging call ended automatically aplicatin while running closed automaticaly it was brought from canada and can i swap my iphone 5 from india part no -MD294C/A serial no -DNPKH6NKDTTP IMEI NO - 013429006771618

    It doesn't matter if it was unlocked. It still must be returned to Canada for repairs, either in warranty or out of warranty. That's the reason it's a bad idea to buy an iPhone in a different country than the one you plan to use it in.

  • Upgrade to IOS 6 has caused everything to slow down, noticeably..ANYONE ELSE SEEING THIS PARTICULARLY ON MY MAC

    Is anyone else seeing this noticeable slow down? 
    Ever since the IOS 6 , at least since then, everything slows down and nothing is wrong, just nothing is any where near as fast as it used to be... Other friends who have macs also say the same....
    Is there a fix coming or something to restore thiings back to normal.

    Allan,
    Just about everything...The internet is slow and I have a very fast FIOS connection 25 up and down....
    You click on something, i.e. a bookmark and it takes a while for it to do anything...Dock items seem to react slower to open, it is like it thinking about it before anything happens....
    Not sure how to describe it, but several friends have said the exact same thing...even on our Ipads...
    Do you see nothing slower?

  • Upgrade to virtualbox 4.3 caused many problems

    I updated today and the new version of virtualbox was installed. When I loaded it to run some vms, I got this:
    One or more virtual hard disks, CD/DVD or floppy disk image files are not currently accessible. As a result, you will not be able to operate virtual machines that use these files until they become accessible later.
    Press Check to open the Virtual Media Manager window and see which files are inaccessible, or press Ignore to ignore this message.
    All of my virtual disks are bad according to the dialogbox. Is there a fix for this?

    I had a similar issue. When you start up VirtualBox and the error message shows up, click "check".
    You'll see a new popup which has 3 tabs.
    The first tab shows errors finding your VMs (if there are no errors an this tab: read on, if there are: might be a different problem)
    The second tab shows errors finding 'optical discs'. In my case I had old references to /opt/*GuestAdditions. I removed these references using the context menu.
    Reboot, still no luck (same error msg).
    Downgraded virtualbox from 4.3.0 to 4.2.8-1. No luck
    Reboot after downgrading: pacman -Syu
    works.
    Summary: (Untested) Reinstall virtualbox.

  • Anyone know how to revert back - iso7 has caused many problems

    It seems many of us are having problems with this new upgrade.  I too now am having difficulty in sending messages.  Really frustrating this upgrade - i fyou haven't upgraded yet then don't - not user friendly.

    Apple are aware of and are working on a fix for the iMessage problem.

  • Lion has caused many problems for me. display , flashing blue.

    I have a mac pro early 2009. Lion will not support two displays. It was running extremely slow but now that I disconnected a display it seems to be working fine. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I have done everything I can think of and all that you have suggested.
    Disk utility
    CCleaner
    SMC
    pram reset
    switch monitor plugs
    Cleaned out computer
    Made more then enough free space
    I have not tried new user or known good display I dont know what "know good display" is!
    I still can not get my second monitor to even be detected now let alone the random blur flashing episodes
    that keep happening. Almost feels like the more I try to fix this problem the worse it's becoming.
    I will say this , my computer is running very well after all this troubleshooting.
    FYI I do have two slightly different sized monitors, I've heard thats a problem.
    Also a new situation is spotifiy is now indexing I am assuming this is happening because of all the shut downs
    and reseting.
    Question : is all this linked to some bigger problem
    Question: How so I get both moniters to be detected and work with out Lion freaking out on my and flashing blue light back to desktop and then blue light again over and over in 20 second intervals. Its like its trying to find it the second monitor but can't.
    Wait a minute .... both displays are on now, however blue flashing still happening at random. Now they are both out, now just blue , now falshing again .
    Seems to be a pattern with whats happening.

  • Iphone 4 upgraded to ios 5.0.1, call reception problems...

    Hi all,
    After having updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.0.1, my phone now seems to have the following problems:
    It doesn't receive calls - using a landline and calling my iPhone results in the landline just ringing and ringing;
    The iPhone can make outgoing calls but, once the call is terminated (i.e. i press the "end call" button), the "phone" app sits there forever - previously the phone app would disappear once i press the "end call" button.
    I can't send sms messages - after hitting the "send" button, the progress bar showing the transmission status moves about 80% to completion and then stays there for good.
    This has all happened in the past day or so. My iPhone 4 has been running without any problems for well over a year with various older ios versions, as well as about 1 week on ios 5.0.
    It seems that the updated to 5.0.1 has caused these problems though I do note that these problems didn't occur immediately. I was using my iPhone with 5.0.1 quite happily for around a day (making and receving calls) before encontering my current problems.
    Thanks in advance for any help. Cheers,
    TC

    Same here.... No fix. Replacing is the option apparently and if you're out of warranty, you're SOL. That was as per the "Genius" at Apple.

    Upgraded to Yosemite- iCloud Drive in Finder works, no documents in iCloud web, not documents in iPad or iPhone- both upgraded to IOS 8

    Well I just fixed this, by sheer luck.
    I did a restart of my MacBook Pro, and after it restarted iCloud was visible and accessible in Finder.
    It seems all that it needs is a system restart.
