IPhone 4S iOS 6.x APN keeps disappearing

Hi!
I've got an iPhone 4S with iOS 6.1.1, every few days the APN randomly disappears from Cellular Data Network settings. I experienced the same issue with iOS 6.0, 6.1 and now with 6.1.1, but didn't have this issue with iOS 5.x though.
I searched on the net, apparently it's quite a widespread issue, but I was unable to find a solution.
Please let me know if you experienced the same issue and managed to fix it.
Thanks!

I've been having the same issue as well.
Seems like the quality of iOS is degrading somewhat these days. Too many bugs showing up in final builds and apple takes forever to fix them.

  • When I disconnect my iphone 3gs(iOS) from computer, the device disappears from my itunes. This prevents me from doing a wireless sync. how do i fix it so that my device stays on itunes without having to plug it in all the time?

    When I disconnect my iphone 3gs(iOS) from computer, the device disappears from my itunes. This prevents me from doing a wireless sync. how do i fix it so that my device stays on itunes without having to plug it in all the time?
    it worked the first few times i did it but the next day after i closed out of itunes once, the device only appears when i plug in my phone.

    Whenever a menu choice is grayed out, that is because you have Restrictions turned on in Settings.  Be sure to turn it off.
    You are confusing an itunes store account with an icloud account.  You two can continue using the same ID for itunes (thus sharing purchased music, apps, etc.), but you really should have separate accounts (different IDs) for icloud, since an account is intended for one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
    To create a new icloud account, go to
    http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
    Then go to Settings>icloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Delete Account.  (have restrictions turned off)  That will disconnect the device from the account but will not delete data in icloud or other devices.  Then sign in using the new ID.

  • IPhone with IOS "Trust this computer" keeps popping up

    I have upgraded to ios 7 on my iphone, but when I now connect my phone to my car (ipod connectivity) it pops up with the "Trust this computer" box! but disappears quickly and then keeps popping up and disappearing.  I don't even have time to click TRUST!!!!
    After a couple of tries the car says there was an error and stops trying.  What the **** is going on!
    If no one knows, maybe you can tell me how to downgrade/restore to ios 7 as without this connectivity I can't listen to my music in the car?

    I finally fixed it!  Don't know really how but here goes what I did.
    You all agreed that before IOS7, by simply plug usb cable between PC and iphone that was it?!
    Updated to IOS7, liked it a little, noticed slowness, but was fairly acceptable. My problem started when I was not able to sync my outlook calendar, contacts, etc. to my phone then I freaked out, because kept having this "do you trust this computer again and again when I clicked Trust.... got me crazy.
    Someone told me to use iCloud. Did, but I can check my Iphone contacts on a website! not what I was looking for. Then I downloaded ICloud for windows, so I can sync (another procedure) to my outlook. Ran it, restarted, found that my wlan card was disabled, fixed it, restarted (anxious), when back, checked some changes made in outlook, more folders and buttons, but it seemed to work.
    I plugged the usb cable and iphone to my pc and Viola! they synchonized!! via usb cable!!
    was it the cable? the icloud installation? the rebooting? don't really know, but it works now...
    I was this close to return to IOS6 by doing all those creepy steps, but it is ok now...
    Please let  know if it work for you guys!!
    cheers!

  • Iphone 3gs ios 6.0.1 keeps switching off when trying to use cellular data

    Hi everybody
    bought an used iphone 3gs a few days ago, the guy gave it updated to ios 6.0.1. I noticed as i put the phone on cellular data it switches off. and when turned on it comes till the unloack screen, and as i try to unlock it switches off again.
    Read a few threads and removed sim put the charger on and started and it starts and works like an ipod with no issues. After a while if i put the sim card and if its on charge it will work perfect with no problems.
    As i remove it from charge works until the battery level comes to approx 60 % and then turns off.
    Then i must again put it on charge , not because the battery is low but to start the phone.
    i have no idea whats goig on, first t ime apple usr and such horrible experience, any ideas?
    P.S - read many threads saying toggling on /off for cellular data. I cant do it without sim as i am on 6.0.1 .
    Please help phones really not doing what its supposed to. just switches off anywhere in meetings or on the go when i need to make calls.
    Thanks

  • Iphone 6 -- iOS 8.1.3 -- screen constantly freezing, Apps instantly crashing, Photos not deleting, iMessages disappearing, iCloud not reflecting correct backups

    Ever since downloading iOS 8.1.3 on my iPhone 6, I've been experiencing quite a few issues (I am assuming all are related to the update, but not sure)
    I apologize in advance for the lengthy post! Here goes:
         • Screen constantly freezes--sometimes it freezes on the home screen (no apps open), other times when I am in Settings, Photos or any of my downloaded apps. Each time this happens I have to restart the phone by holding the home and lock buttons in order to unfreeze the screen...this happens approximately 4-5x per day.
         • All of my apps either freeze or crash upon opening, and my Mail app either refuses to stay open or it will show an empty inbox with 'no mail' --even though my email has always been synced to the phone.
         • I am not receiving a lot of iMessages or incoming calls to my iPhone, but most of the missing iMessages will appear on my MacBook Pro. And when I do receive iMessages normally, entire portions of certain conversations--both sent & received--keep disappearing (whether my iphone is on all day or if I have to restart it). *the convo that has gone MIA on my iPhone will still appear on the other persons phone.
         • When I open Messages or Recent Call logs, the contact names do not appear..only 10-digit phone numbers. (Even though all of the #s are saved by name in Contacts).*This has only happened a few times so far.*
         • Furthermore--and most frustrating!--my camera and photos are practically inaccessible. Almost every time I open 'Photos', the app crashes.. I have no available storage to use the camera so when I try to select photos and hit 'delete' the app crashes instead of deleting the photos.
         • I have considered performing a factory reset... however, my iCloud states I have 4.6gb available (w/ 5gb plan) even though my photos are turned on in iCloud, and should be taking up most of the 5gb storage space..they appear 'On,' but do not show up under 'Manage Storage'...the only apps/documents/data shown are WhatsApp and Mail so I am afraid to reset the phone as I have no idea if the photos are actually backed up or not.   (Screenshots are attached)
    If anybody has been experiencing any of the same issues I would greatly appreciate your insight or advice for how to fix this! I'm hoping it is just a bug with the new iOS software and not an issue with my phone itself as it is only 3 months old.. Thank you in advance!

    **Adding to the final photo in my original post... When I select the 'Kendall Anderson's...This iPhone' using 324.2MB, Photo Library is turned 'On', but has 'No Data'....I know this is not possible because my photos that were previously backed up used up ~3.5GB of storage.
    Either I am doing something wrong here, or my iPhone just has a mind of its own with this new update!

  • How do I keep music on my iPhone vs iCloud? (It keeps disappearing)

    How do I keep music that I downloaded to my iPhone from disappearing after a period of time?  I recently purchased some music from iTunes on my iPhone (running iOS 8) and downloaded the music. A week or so later I went to play the music and found that it was no longer on the iPhone but could be downloaded from iCloud. However, I was driving in an area without sufficient wireless coverage - and that downloading would count against my monthly plan.  It had all been previously downloaded over WiFi.
    It seems like Apple is trying to "help" me by taking music I haven't played for a bit and taking that off my phone to free up space... or something like that.
    I have NOT synced my phone with iTunes in a long while, and someone suggested I need to do that and set up songs in playlists so that they stay on my iPhone. That just seems like a lot of work.
    I just want to purchase music, download it, and have it stay on my iPhone!  Any ideas how I can stop the music from being removed?
    thank you!

    The only reason music is removed is if the phone runs out of memory needed by some other function. Check your available memory; if it is very low that is what is happening.

  • Music and videos keep disappearing off my iPhone

    I have an 16GB iPhone 5S running iOS 8.1.3. Seems that either since the last iOS update or iTunes update, music and videos keep disappearing off my iPhone. I'll copy stuff on and now, I'll double check that it's staying on the phone, but the next day, my music or video library will contain 'no content'. I'm not syncing any songs or videos and have 'Manually manage...' checked. I've restarted the iPhone and iTunes. It keeps happening. What I have found is that it seems to happen sometime after the songs or videos are copied onto the phone while the phone is still plugged into my MBP. It doesn't seem, and I may be wrong, to happen when the phone is not plugged in to the Mac. Another issue I've found since the upgrading is that the phone rarely syncs the 'last watched' time on any videos anymore. Any ideas about these issues?

    I have this problem too but movies and music delete a couple days later. I can watch half a movie one day and the next it disappears. I can also load music and listen to it all one day then they disappear in front of my eyes the next. these have all bern downloaded from the cloud on wifi at home.

  • Why do my text messages keep disappearing in IOS 5 on my 3GS?

    I have an iPhone 3GS that i have updated to IOS 5 and lost all my old text messages that i had kept from 2007 which really annoyed me but what is even more annoying is that my current messages keep disappearing. If i am in an app and get a notification saying i have recieved a text and click on the notification the new text message isn't in my inbox. This keeps happening and it is getting rather annoying because i can't reply to people as i can't read their original message.
    Any ideos how i can fix this... 

    For some reason iphone can only store 15MB of text messages (75,000), if you have that much already it is full and you won't be able to receive incoming text message until you free some space. If all that text message is important to you then I'd find a way to transfer those into your computer by using a third party program (google it). Or just take a screenshot of all your text messages and e-mail them to your computer.

    Hi, I cant login to the facebook app on my iphone 5 ios 6.0.2.  I keep getting an error message saying 'There was an error logging in using single sign on' when im asked to log in again i get a 'session expired' message.  This only started happening yesterday. Anyone else having this problem? Thanks.

    I am having the same problem and took the following steps to mitigate it to no avail.
    1. I deleted the Facebook app on the phone and turned off Facebook in the iPhone's system-wide settings.
    2. I re-enabled Facebook in the iPhone's system-wide settings and reinstalled the Facebook app and logged in again. It worked. For about an hour.
    3. I completely restored the phone to a previous backup (before the problems started) and reenabled Facebook .... reinstalled the app.... and now it works intermittenly. But it hasn't worked in about 12 hours now (just tried a few minutes ago).
    Please advise.

    Dear Sirs,when i use the computer updating my iphone to ios 7.1,suddenly black out.The computer has no power and my iphone does not work and keep display the screen saying the iphone need to connect to itunes. So when i connect my iphone to iTunes, the computer says"itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode. you must restore this iphone before it can be used with itunes"
    So my question is if I click OK(restore the iphone),will i lose all my data and whatsapp??
    Thank you for your help and time.

    If you didn't back up the phone to iCloud or iTunes (on your computer) BEFORE attempting the update, the data will be lost.
