Iphone 4s in settings can't access Notes or Mail.  Also can't access mail from home screen. Can't send email. All else is good.

I need help. I have reset my iphone. I have turned it off then on. Still can't launch my built in mail app from home screen. When I try it goes to blank page then right back to home screen view.
In settings for the iphone 4s I can not access Notes or Mail, Contacts,Calendars. When I tap either of the two they highlight in blue and then go right back to Home Screen view. I seem to be able to access everything else in settings with no trouble.
From home screen I have no trouble I can launch the built in utility Notes with no problem. I also can launch Calendars from Home Screen view. My Contacts are still reachable by tapping Phone from H/S view then clicking on contacts.
I can not launch mail. nor can I send email. Also the built in mail app is not showing it is recieving mail either. All else seems fine.
I can log in to my email from Safari on iphone and from my laptop with no problem.
Anyone have any suggestions?  My iphone is out of warranty. Apples only suggestions are To pay for support.
Thanks in advance

Just had a thought....was trying to rememberif anything changed last night. I think I installed a mac OS X Security update. That's about the time the trouble started. Any ideas? Thanks.

    If this doesn't resolve it you most likely have a hardware failure. Fortunately, your phone is in warranty, so if you take it to an Apple store they will replace it.

    After installing the new software to my iPhone 4S , my dream zoo either will not start or when it does it has a blank screen that has a few icons on it that wont work. How can I fix this is it possible to go back and reinstall the older software ?

    Unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks for the help though. I tried to uninstall and it said I couldn't because the file is corrupt or something, but I think I finally got it uninstalled and/or deleted or whatever, but now I try to reinstall/download it again from the beginning and I can't. No matter what I do I can not get Firefox working again. No matter how many times I try to redownload it. Any other suggestions?

    Yes, if you setup one of the methods.. see

    You must use a Mac for any of those.. if you want to use some other OS tell us.

  • Using Outlook 2007 I want to receive emails on my iPhone 4 only when Outlook is NOT open on my computer, as when away from home or want to quickly check email when computer is not turned on. Either ALL emails come to my iPhone or none at all.

    Using Outlook 2007 I want to receive emails on my iPhone 4 only when Outlook is NOT open on my computer, as when away from home or want to quickly check email when computer is not turned on. Either ALL emails come to my iPhone or none at all. Is the setting I need to change in Outlook or on the iPhone or is it somewhere else?  I used to have this setting but transferring Outlook to a new laptop somehow turned it off.

    No. You really can't do that. Not easily at any rate. You would have to set them both up to use POP3, but even then there is no way to guarantee that the phone won't poll the server prior to your computer doing so, pulling down the message from the server.

  • I had Iphoto 08 and now is gone, I have under applications and is not there. Also most of the pictures are gone. Can you easily delete the application?

    I had Iphoto 08 and now is gone, I have looked under applications and is not there. Also most of the pictures are gone. Can you easily delete the application?

    Obviously you can.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • My iphone 4 is losing telephone numbers at a rate of 2 or 3 a day from contacts.  The name and emails remain. Why?

    my iphone 4 is losing telephone numbers at a rate of 2 or 3 a day from contacts.  The name and emails remain. Why?
    It was happening before IOS 8 was launched

    Hello there William Malmesbury,
    It sounds like your Contacts app seems to be losing your contacts phone numbers, but the rest of the information is fine. If you don't already have a backup, I would create one either with iCloud or iTunes, or even both:
    Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you use iCloud I would use these steps from the following article:
    Get help using iCloud Contacts
    See if a contact is stored with iCloud or another service, such as Google or Yahoo:
    Open Contacts and tap Groups in the upper-left corner.
    Deselect the All [account] option for any third-party, such as Gmail or Yahoo.
    Make sure All iCloud is selected.
    View your contacts. If the contact isn't visible, then it exists in a third-party account.
    You can import the contact from a third-party service into iCloud. iCloud won't sync contacts that are associated with a different service.
    You need to make sure that iCloud is your default account for Contacts:
    If you want new contacts to appear automatically on your devices.
    If you're syncing contacts with multiple accounts on your device (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo) and recent changes to Contacts on your iOS device don't appear on your other devices.
    See if iCloud is your default account:
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    In the Contacts section, tap Default Account.
    Make sure iCloud is selected.
    Restart Contacts
    Close and restart the Contacts app on your iOS device:
    iOS 7:
    Double-click the Home button to see your open apps.
    Find the Contacts preview screen and swipe it up to close the app.
    Press the Home button to return to your Home screen.
    Wait a minute, then reopen the Contacts app.
    Turn iCloud Contacts off and back on
    Tap Settings > iCloud.
    Turn Contacts off.
    You can choose Delete from My [device] if your data exists at icloud.com/contacts and on one or more of your devices. Otherwise, choose Keep on My [device].
    Wait a few minutes, then turn Contacts back on.
    Restart your device
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button, then drag the slider when asked to power off. Turn your device back on.
    If not, I would start by quitting all the running apps on your phone:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
