IPhone 4s having many problems?

I've had the iPhone 4s for about a year now, and it's been working perfectly until last month. It started with slower internet amd a few apps crashing, which I assumed was an exterior problem. However, since last week, it's gotten worse. My pictures aren't loading, they are blurry to the point where you can't tell what it is. None of my pictures are saving either and if they do, they show up in my camera roll as a pixelated dark gray patch that says png. On top of this, it won't let me send texts, with iMessage or otherwise. My number is entered in the 'My Number' section and iMessage is on. Also, my only app, Tumblr, will never load. It'll show the same post from two days ago. I've tried redownloading and updating it but to no avail. Safari will crash at random, deleting all my history and bookmarks, my music will be randomly deleted at times, and YouTube videos aren't loading AT ALL. I've cleared the cache and cookies which worked for about ten minutes. It's gottten to the point where I have to reboot every ten minutes to even open my phone let alone doing anything on it. I've tried turning it off for long periods of time, disconnecting from wifi, and restoring. Nothing seems to be working. However, I am still on ios 6 which leads me to suspect that that is the problem. I cannot update, 'other' is taking up too much space and I am getting really frustrated with this phone. Does anyone have any solutions?

If Other is very large you may have data corruption on your phone. Update it using iTunes rather than over-the-air on the phone. This will kill two birds with one stone.

    Having many problem with wifi....after installing lion......it connect with wifi but not with Internet and at the same time iPad 2, iPhone 4 works smooth......help......I have MacBook air without thunderbolt and mac mini

    I had the same problem last night. Boot into OSX and reboot the router - fine. Boot into Windows and wrong. Here were my fixes:
    Firstly, I kept all the settings on my router solid. Just leave them as they are. Boot into OSX and check the Network settings and make a note of your IP address and the router's IP address.
    Second, boot into Windows, then open up your wireless connection settings and navigate through to the properties where you can set the IP address.
    Third: Set the IP address to your routers IP address changing the last set of digits to a value between 5 and 255 (I have 8 devices so I set the last two digits to 10.) This will keep the IP static.
    Tab through the Mask settings to default those.
    Then set the default gateway to your router's IP address.
    Check that the Network Adapter's setting has IPv6 disabled (uncheck the box)
    Finally: Set the primary DNS server to 8.8.8.8 then the secondary to 8.8.4.4 and then reboot the router.
    That's what got my connection running.

    Hello MarvanCheong,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Troubleshooting touchscreen response
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1827
    Restart your device
    Hold the On/Off button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the On/Off button to turn it back on.
    If you can't restart your device, reset it by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for a least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Clean the screen with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth.
    Avoid using the device while wearing gloves, with wet hands, or immediately after applying hand lotion.
    If you have a protective case, or if you are using a plastic sheet or film on the display, try removing them and testing the device without it.
    Best of luck,

  • Hi, recently my Iphone 4S having wifi problem. I have try to restore it and accidentally get everything clear off. I have also notice that my phone is not USB recognized by my laptop before my wifi gone. Is there any ways to restore my contact?

    Hi,
    My Iphone 4S having wifi problem. I also noticed that the USB is not longer recongnized by my laptop anymore.
    I tried to upgrade my IOS6 into 7 hopefully it work...
    Somehow, all data (contacts, sms, photo and etc) were gone after I did that.
    Since my USB and wifi is not function, is there anyway to retrieve my lost contacts?
    For Icloud, is the data retrieve via the phone sim? Phone mac ID? Apple ID? or everything?

    Did you backup your iPhone 4S before to upgrade? If you did, you may recover your contacts from it.
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    Or you should use an iPhone recovery software to get your lost contacts back. Please follow the blog's tips to have a try.
    For iCloud, it does not retrieve the phone sim data. It can only restore your backup data. And, if you want to find your Apple ID, you should read this:

  • Hooked up the AirPort Extreme to a verizon actiontec gt704wg wireless router and am having many problems

    I am having countless problems. Would it be smart to buy a basic dsl modem?

    Setting the Airport into bridge mode won't affect the speed either way - that's a function of your internet connection and also your wireless signal. Bridge mode avoids the conflicts which arise when two routers are both trying to allocate IP numbers to the connected devices (this might cause speed loss, though more usually it simply prevents connection).
    If you are only connecting wirelessly to the Airport you should if possible turn off the wireless on the Verizon as it's simply cluttering the airwaves.

  • Iphone 3g having wifi problems - app problem?

    Hi,
    I just got given a iphone 3g as a hand me down, and I think im having problems with the wifi, but cant find anything sensible as fix (one video suggested put it in the oven)
    when using safari, or internet apps (namely, facebook, kik, igotchat) and probably any other apps that need an internet connection, I get randomly "disconnected" for lack of a better word. on safari it says "no network is available, please connect to wifi" and kik says the same thing.  normally with safari i can just refresh the page a couple of times, and it will work, but when using the instant messenger apps, it just doesnt send or receive my messages, for hours,
    the thing is, when all this is going on, i dont actully lose wifi, the signal symbol is there the whole time, I go into settings and my routers name is there, and also igotchat's wifi status always says its good.
    So far ive tried changing my wireless channel on the router, and also trying to use it on a diferent internet connection, but the problem still persists (my home network is fine on all other devices)
    i understand that im using "legacy" apps, and therefore not on the latest version, but im on the latest that ios 4.2.1 will allow, and im sure app developers/apple wouldnt just have people unable to use their old devices
    so what im asking is there any fixes i can try, either with the phone, the router, or the apps, as currently its fairly unusable as an internet device
    im pretty new to apple products (except my old ipod video) but im decent with technology so il try anything if it might help even slightly

    Hello monolith,
    So, you are still having the disconnection after changing the protocol to G only.  Another tip some folks have used to help clear this up, is to set up a Static address for your phone.  This is something I do at work, so I took the practice home. 
    Not all routers, will let you reserve addresses for devices, but some do.  If your router is the DHCP for your network, look in the network settings for resevations.
    If you can add a reservation, then add the one your phone is already using to see if this elimates the problem, at least on your network.
    If you know how to set up a reservation, you can skip this part.
    First write down the network settings that are on your phone under the blue > dot.  When you change from DHCP to Static, iOS will clear the settings, so write them down.
    Tap on Static and fill in the information you just wrote down for the static address settings.
    Now put the phone in airplane mode or turn off WiFi on your phone.
    Assuming you can add a reservation to your router, you will need to know you phone's MAC address (Settings>About WiFi address) so you can find it in the address pool. 
    Your phone's address in the pool should be the same as what you wrote down already and revoke the address from the pool.
    Now you can make the new reservation and type in the IP address, the MAC address and a description of your phone, typically.
    Save the settings and the router will probably restart the network, so make sure anything already on the network is ready to go offline for a minute or so.
    Take your phone off airplane mode and it should join the network.  If it doesn't, confirm the addresses are the same and make sure the MAC address is correct.
    If your router can't take a reservation, then the only other suggestion I can make is to aquire an Apple router.  Check around ebay to see if you can't get an old AirPort Extreme Base Station (the ones that look like a space ship) and attach it to your nettwork as a subnet.  I just spotted some on ebay for under $10.  Also if your network is secure, just make sure the subnet is also secure. 
    If you're unfamilar with Apple routers, you set them up using software from Apple, so if you have a Windows PC you will need to download the AirPort Utility software http://support.apple.com/kb/DL524 and install it on your PC.
    Beyond that I'm afraid I can't help, sorry.
    Best of luck,
    UG

  • Faulty iphone but having exchange problems

    I live in N Cyprus and have a  dead iPhone 5s. Apple support from Turkey contacted me and after running various tests, they concluded it's a hardware problem (faulty phone). I've been told to take the phone in to an apple store for it to be exchanged. My nearest apple store is Turkey and I've been trying to get an appointment with the Genius Bar for days and it's impossible. There are no slots Available. I can't contact apple support because you cannot phone their contact numbers  from a different country. ( there is no contact no for N Cyprus and my technical support has run out ie. apple will not contact me again).
    i want  to make a written complaint to apple, but cannot find anywhere on their website where I can put something into writing. You
    can complain about online support and other things but NOTHING about lack of support for exchanging a faulty phone. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Many thanks

    Your failure to answer a simple question is making it hard for us to help you.
    Again. Where (country/name of store) did you purchase the iPhone? As the iPhone is NOT legitimately available in Cyprus (that is why there are no iPhone support options for Cyprus), you must have gotten it from another country (Turkey?). And, from what I understand, it is not available carrier unlocked in Turkey, which you need for use in Cyprus. Assuming it is Turkey, you MUST take it back to Turkey/country of origin for service. The iPhone warranty is not and has never been international, contrary to what you may believe. In any case this document indicates that iPhone service is handled by the carriers in Turkey and not Apple. So I have no idea who you are talking to in Turkey.
    iPhone: Wireless carrier support and features
    As I see it, from what limited information you have given us, you have only one option which is to send it to a friend in Turkey, who will then take it physically to the Apple store (after trying to get an appointment) or making the trip to see if they can get it serviced/exchanged without an appointment.
    You can leave feedback here, but you will not get an answer from Apple:

  • I am having many problems with the CC 2014 application manager update

    I have 2 seats. Thus I have CC 2014 installed on four computers. All four are high end desktops with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit installed, all four with the latest patches. All four also use high end nvidia graphics cards all with the latest drivers.
    On all four, when I tried to update the application manager, only the frame of update the window was visible. Then, when I moused over the empty frame, the blue update button became visible, but nothing else. Since the common thread is nvidia drivers, it seems there may be a conflict. But one card is a Quadro FX 5800, another is 2x SLI NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285, another is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 2GB, and the fourth is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 3Gb. So all four have different cards.
    I went ahead and installed the app mgr update and all the program updates on all four computers. All four had problems, two of them serious.
    On one computer, there were problems booting up. The boot up problems went away when I restored to a prior image. I tried several times. The problem persisted. I finally gave up on updating this computer.
    This boot up problem then happened on a second computer. I restored to a prior image and the problem went away here as well. I then tried the installs again. This time, the computer booted fine, but I lost the ability to send email. I use Thunderbird and have had no problems sending email ever (for at least the past 8 years). So I again restored to a prior image and the email problem went away. I then tried the installs a third time. Same result. Investigating, I was able to get an alternate outgoing mail server to work (that of my company site). But I never got the Verizon server to work. Incoming? Yes. But no outgoing.
    On the third computer, I also had problems booting. But rebooting many times seems to have solved the problem. Unfortunately, Premiere crashes so often I've reverted to CC.
    I realize that Adobe puts much work into making their software better. And I depend on it every day. But to be honest, I've just spent several whole days trying to fix broken computers. And my confidence in Adobe is at an all time low.
    I so regret not staying with CC.

  • Hi, my iPhone 3GS has many problems. Please help if you can!

    Havent had my phone for even a full year yet, been nothing but problems. My iPhone will not ring or notify me when people call yet i get the missed calls on my phone after they call 10 times (which they are normally very frustrated by then). It is hard to hear me sometimes when I talk to others using this phone. I will all of a sudden cut out when they could hear me perfectly clear. Also I will be texting a message and I will type a whole message but it wont show up on the screen and after 2 minutes when it finally does its only part of the message. My camera only opens up some of the time. My switch just doesnt work. When you switch it to silent it wont work unless you hold your finger on the switch. My home button doesnt always work. I will be using an app and all of a sudden my phone will freeze and restart itself. I will lock my phone but it will not actually lock until 2 minutes after i press the button. Sometimes my screen gets stuck in a landscape position even my home screen and lock screen, kinda weird. Oh and i have had the problem recently where I will plug my charger in and it will charge on and off. It will charge and then after a few minutes it will say this charger is not supported and it will go back and forth. So i got a new charger and tried it to see if the problem was the charger and it still did the same thing. There are more little problems but these are the major ones. I know there is a lot but any help or suggestions are welcomed and appreciated! Thank you   Oh my phone has also spent most of its time in an otter box so not much damage to my phone. Thanks again!!

    Since you are still under Warranty, make appointment with Apple Genius and take iPhone to Apple for resolution of those problems.

  • Iphone 5s having many issues after 7.0.4

    Having multiple issues with 5s since latest update. 1st, phone will crash quite often when entering my password, or using the touch ID from the lock screen. I don't seem to have these issues when I have the reduced motion set to "off". I really don't like the background moving around. 2nd, my battery life has completely diminished. I make sure to always close out of my apps completely. Everything worked great until this update

    Temporarily disable all security software (firewall, antivirus, etc.) running on your computer while updating.  Try restoring the iOS.

  • Just Installed Firefox 6.0.2 And I'm Having Many Problems On Some Web Sites When Using Firefox:

    -When I click on a picture on some sites it will go to the next page with a large view of the picture and then when I go back one page to do the same with another picture (or even the same picture) nothing happens.
    -Videos don't show up or on some sites the videos do show up and work but you can't make them full screen. (YouTube works fine).
    -Sometimes I have to click "Reload" to get my saved codes to show up.
    -It won't let me log onto some sites unless I right click where it says "sign in" and click "open link in new tab".
    -In some Forums the tool bars, smileys, etc. don't work when using Firefox or IE9 and they worked before with IE9.
    -Some of my letters when viewed with IE9 are now in some kind of code (maybe html?).
    I never had these problems before when using IE9 alone!
    Java was updated before I installed Firefox and I installed the Adobe Flash Player 10 plugin right after installing Firefox. My OS is Windows 7 64-bit.
    Please Help. Thank You

  • I am having many problems with Firefox 5 how do I go back to Firefox 4

    Whenever I log on to mymsn via Firefox I get this error message: TpyeError: Components. classes[cid] is undefined. Also I used to be able to type in an address or select one from the drop down menu and it would go to the site now I have to click the icon on the right hand of the address bar. Also when I am in a site and there is a link to an email like Craigslist it will not allow me to email. I have to get the email address and go into my mail and manually email. I did not have any of these problems with the last version of Firefox. So! how do I go back to the version I had before, it was way!!! better. Thanks Don

    '''''TpyeError: Components. classes[cid] is undefined. '''''
    That message is usually caused by an incompatible add-on. You need to do a little bit of troubleshooting to determine which one, and then disable that particular add-on until you can find and install an updated version which doesn't cause that error. <br />
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    Your other problems might be cause by that "incompatible" add-on.
    Firefox 4 isn't supported any longer, Firefox 5 was a security update for Firefox 4.01. The version to "go back" to would be Firefox 3.6.19, if that is what you would prefer to do. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
