IPhone 4 with ios 5 no longer recognised in windows explorer
Just updated my iPhone 4 to ios5 last night. Since then I can't see my phone under windows explorer. It shows up fine in iTunes. So now I can't manage my pictures and videos.
I've tried it on 2 different windows machines, both XP.
Help please!
Just to double check here, are there photos in the Camera Roll? The only time the iPhone will show up in Windows Explorer is if there is content in the Camera Roll. If there is no content there it will not show up since there is no other file management that you can do from there. If there is content, try and reset the phone, will not do anything to data, by holding down the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. See if that helps.

I am unable to create a new event on my iPhone with IOS 7.0.4. I tap the plus sign, fill in the details, tape Done and ... nothing. Repeatedly. No problem on my iMac or iPad, just with the phone. Help.
Assuming you're creating this event to place in your calendar, and assuming this calendar is shared with your iMac and iPad using iCloud, might the calendar be restricted on your iPhone?

Hello, so today I realized that my iPhone with iOS 6 is frozen on the music. I can get back to the home screen but I can't get the music player to work because its frozen on the w's and will not respond to touch. I would be grateful for any help on this.
Hi deamayfield,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your Music app is unresponsive, try restarting/resetting your iPhone:

I have an iPhone with iOS 7.1.1 and am trying to update to 7.1.2, but get an error message "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone"
Assuming you are using the current version of iTunes (11,2,2), open iTunes, click "Preferences" under the leftmost entry on iTunes' menu, then choose "Devices".
Find the iPhone's backup there, highlight it, and choose "Delete Backup". -
just updated my iphone with iOS 7.0.2 and when I call or people call me, only one party can hear the other. Would you know how to fix this problem? Thanks
Hi Apple_Mom,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you've noticed issues after updating to iOS 7.0.2, you may want to first update to iOS 7.0.3 which was recently released.

Good day I need the solution to the problem presented my iphone with ios upgrade from 7 to access any app, I get a message that says "log on to itunes to receive notifications"
After the iOS 7.0.2 update words with friends is not working for me either. When I attempt to open the app it just closes itself after a few seconds of being open. This happens every time I attempt to open it.

Since you are a developer, you will need to post in the private developer's forum.

Try rephrasing your question.
What does your card have to do with it and how do you complete a phone with ios 6?
What exactly are you doing, and what is the exact message you're getting? -
I hv iPhone with ios 6.0.2

How can I upgrade to ios 7?
Help plsI agree- I apologize if I sounded skeptical and attacking. In no way did I mean it to sound that way.
I completely agree on the software-hardware combo issue- this is why apple killed off 1G and 2G devices- because newer software revisions would never ever run well if at all on such ancient devices. can you imagine running iOS 6 on an iPhone/iPod touch 1G? That would be terrible. Let alone iOS 3 runs terrible on them and now are generally rendered useless due to newer App Store requirements (most require 4.3+ now to allow apple to kill off the older devices). forcing newer software on older hardware (apple, dell, HP,... Anything electronic this definitely applies to) will almost always yield less-than-par results. The other part is apple forcing you to upgrade by means of intentially making things obsolete. all companies do that.
All of this factual info aside, the issue at hand with the 5 is not a software-hardware combo problem- those are most widely seen with the major revisions. then again, this isn't the first time apple has gotten caught up in battery drain snafus (even iOS 5 was plagued with this as well- and now there are some people desperate to roll back but can't). it basically waters it down to the point where keeping the stock software will always yield the best results even though newer versions provide better features- it all depends on whether or not the person deems the added features are worth a performance hit.
PS. I'm still at 100%- and I've been using it periodically throughout the day. your combo worked for you, but didn't for me. And may or may not work for others- As the tech world would say, mileage may vary.
PSS. What model/carrier do you have? Just wondering. -
Hi all ,i had a 3G iphone with IOS 4.0.2, my new iphone is 4 (IOS=7.0.2), the backup from 3G to 4 does not restore. (eror=restoring backup session failed) , help me plz for restoring ?! TNX
<Personal Information Edited by Host>Well, first off, you are not addressing Apple here. This is a user to user PUBLIC forum. You should not post your personal information like that. Try closing iTunes, reboot the computer and connect again. Are you using the latest version of iTunes, v11.1?

Why doesn't iMessage with the fourth iPod touch work with iPhones with iOS 5.1 software?
Why does the iMessage say that someone isn't registered with iMessage when they have an iPhone with iOS 5.1 software?
DId the person with the iPhone activate Messages on his iPhone and has he assigned the number you are call as a Receive At number?

I have run the toshiba diags and it finds it and says its fine.
Any advice on resolving this issue would be very much appreciated.
Thanks BHi
You need to remove the upper and lower filters from registry key.
First of all remove the CD/DVD drive from the device manager.
Then go to registry and remove upper and lower filter from this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
After that reboot the notebook.
