Iphone 4S keeps falling from flat surfaces

I have an iphone 4s replaced using my insurance after the previous one got broken by accident. This new iphone keeps falling from flat surfaces. After the first time, I placed it back just to check how could it fall, and I could see that the phone was moving very slowly toward the edge. It happens all the time in different flat surfaces, normally wooden ones, like the bedside table, or just an ordinary table. What is causing this? This phone does not have any casing or glass film protector. How can I stop this happening? Is part of the mechanism of the phone? Thanks

Hey SurbitonUK,
This could be cause by your vibration motor in your iPhone. Try turning this feature off and see if the issue is still present:

Iphone 5s keep disconnecting from wifi

Hi,
I have been having this problem lately and it's only happening on my iphone with the latest version of ios8. I thought it was my router problem and brought a new router but I still see the same issue. What happens is that it keep dropping the wifi signal and then using cellular data. When I try to search for my wifi sometimes it can find it sometimes it cannot. I have an ipad and apple laptop and windows laptop at home using the same wifi but it does not get this problem. When I try to search for the wifi it cannot find any but there are many wifi network in my neighborhood which shows up on my ipad and laptop fine but not on the iphone. Other times it's able to connect to the wifi but cannot get internet or the signal drop and disconnect while on my ipad and iphone it's working fine. The strange thing is when I'm at work the wifi works fine. So I'm really confused if it's my wifi or my phone having the issue. If it's the wifi having the issue how come it work fine on my ipad and laptop but not my iphone? If it's my phone having problem then how come it works great using wifi at work? Could it be due to some setting on my home wifi that is not working well with the iphone? Please help because I end up almost going over my cellular data for this problem.

Have you tried resetting the network settings. It will clear the cache. To reset network settings, open the Settings app and navigate to Settings > General > Reset and tap on Reset Network Settings. Give it a try and see if it helps.

How do i delete music from iphone that keeps coming from icloud

I currently have music files that do not show in my library but reappear on my iphone. I want to delete some of these music files but it can't "swipe" to delete and I can't remove them from my library on my lap top. I just want them gone! It shouldn't be this hard to remove things from MY phone.
Can someone please give me simple steps to get rid of stupid downloaded songs?

I Have a similar problem. iTunes match is off, never turned on, yet sogs from my iTunes inesplicably end up on my phone. I have to do a full reset on the phone to get them off. Over time the songs fill up all free space.
any tips for how to fix this bug?

My iPhone 3Gs keeps disconnecting from my wireless Gateway.

I have an iPhone 3GS and just had my AT&T 2WIRE Wireless Gateway replaced. Now that it is brand new I've noticed that my iPhone doesn't keep it's connection to it like the old Gateway. I have called and talked to AT&T and they've done all they could do I'm sure on their end with oopening security and ports, etc to the Gateway. I am still experiencing the same problem. Now I'm thinking it's my iPhone. Has anyone had this problem and know of any solutions?

Hey thanks for suggestion i thought it worked for a while but it just did it again once i reinstalled it

IPhone 4S keeps dying from battery even though the battery isn't drained

Hello,
I have an iPhone 4S running iOS 6.1.3. I've run into this problem now a few times as it has been happening about once a week. Suddenly my phone will die as if the battery has just died, even though it is no where near reaching 0%. The three times it has happened it has been somewhere around 80%, 60% and 20% (I don't remember the exact numbers but it was around there). I've tried doing a force reset several times, holding down the power and home buttons, but that hasn't helped.
Does anyone have an idea of what I can do?
Thanks in advance.

Hello shak77,
Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. I found some steps that I think would help with this issue:
Frozen or unresponsive iPhone

You can skip the first two sections because it sounds like you have already tried those steps. Please start with the third section that talks about closing apps and continue from there.
Best,

How can I read email from my aol account from my iphone and keep it as uread on my computer at home. It automatically goes to read mail on my computer. On my computer if I want to keep an email to answer later I can mark it "Keep as New".

How can I read my email from my aol account from my iphone and keep it as "unread" on my computer at home? At home I can read an email and if I want to get back to it at a later date I can mark it as "keep as new". I tend to forget it if it goes to "read" mail. Right now, when I read an email from my phone it goes automatically to "read" mail.

On the iPad, using the mail app, there is no way to do what you are asking without tapping the flag icon and marking the item as unread. Have you tried the OWA app for the iPad? It may have that functionality, but I haven't tested it as you need an Office 365 subscription with Exchange support to use the app.

When I listen to music on my iPhone and pause it, if I come back to it later, the playlist has started over. I have a 4S running on iOS 7.0.4. Is there any way to keep this from happening so that my playlist will start off where I last was?

How do delete photos from iPhone but keep them on the cloud?

Is it possible to delete photos from an iPhone but keep them on the cloud? If not what is the purpose of buying extra storage for icloud If you phone can only hold up to 128gb?

How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
iCloud Photo Library can move the original high-resolution photos and videos to iCloud and
replace them with lightweight, device-optimized versions on your iOS device. This helps you
make the most of your device storage while giving you access to more photos than ever.
You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings >
Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You will need
an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.
Yes I want to know the answer too.
If I subscribe to iCloud storage but my iPhone can just hold up to 16 gb.
Why do I have to do it ? to make my iPad see photos from my iPhone?
I did try to disable icloud photo while i had 1gb photos stored in my iPhone
and wipe them out, yes ,nothing left, 0 data. but when I turn on iCloud Photo -
again. everything come back as preview photos but when I look at each, my phone
will download them all anyway. so, how can you manage space on devices actually?
if I have 16 gb on my phone , So I can see all of my 1tb photos on iCloud ?
and have enough space on the phone to do other things right?

Photo sync from pc to iPhone to keep folder organization question

I would appreciate some assistance on HOW to sync my photos from my pc to the iPhone while KEEPING them in their nicely organized folders?
When I tried the first time, I had it sync "my photos" folder which contains 79 folders, which include sub folders themselves. What it got was all 3000 photos came across to the iPhone all in 1 folder. No sub folders at all.
I re sync'd and deleted every photo from the iPhone to try again. On my second attempt, after reading all the archived questions and answers here, I tried going into specific photo folders and syncing to the iPhone. I tried doing one by one, but when I checked the iPhone after two folders, it only takes the last one, deleting the first one.
So, with all this said, HOW do you get multiple folders of photos copied to the iPhone?
thanks,
Richard

Thanks strakegl1800, You helped me.
1. But it copies the pix both in each sub-folder AND duplicates of each pic are in the main folder called Photo Library. How can I get stop the duplicates?
2. I can not see how to delete a folder or pic off of my phone (unless it is under the "Camera Roll" folder, in which case it shows a garbage can in the bottom right of the screen.)
3. Also, it is good that the original folder called "Camera Roll" is also still there, but I would like to know where it shows up on my PC.
Can you help ?

How do I keep emails from being deleted on my iPhone 6? Emails get deleted from phone when I startup desktop computer and they are downloaded from sever. Is POP3 no longer supported on IOS 8.1?

How do I keep emails from being deleted on my iPhone 6? Emails get deleted from phone when I startup desktop computer and they are downloaded from sever. Is POP3 no longer supported on IOS 8.1?

Have you seen this?
Using a POP account with more than one device - Apple Support
A better solution is if your email provider uses IMAP. IMAP sync email folders between multiple devices. Meaning any device will receive the email, all sent email can be seen on the devices. If you delete email from one device the email is deleted from all the other devices. Check with your email provider to see if they offer IMAP services.
If they do not your choices are to 1) configure email on the PC to keep Mail on the mail server or 2) change email providers to something like Gmail or Outlook.com (as examples). FWIW I use Cox IMAP email and fully sync email between a Win 8.1 Update 1 laptop, a Win 7 desktop, an iPad 4, an iPhone 4 and an iPhone 5S.

HT201317 My iPhone is running out of storage. I want to delete a bunch of photos on my phone. I have iCloud. How do I delete photos from the iPhone and keep them on my computer? I need to free up storage as my phone will no longer take photos.

The only way you can do that is to import them into your library first, but you may have done that already.
The easiest way to tell is to select a photo from the photostream album in iPhoto and ctrl-click on it, if it gives you the option to import it isn't in your iPhoto library, if it offers you the option to show in library it has already been imorted.

How do I keep iTunes from automatically transferring purchases from my iPhone?

Well, earlier in the year I had a Hard Drive failure. After having it fixed not all my files where on my Mac, including my iTunes media. So I connect my iPhone and it asks me if I want to transfer purchases? I click yes, the transfer wnet fine but some old media transferd too. I didn't want it so I simply deleted it. But when I plug my iPhone in now, it automatically says transfering purchases from Alex's iPhone. I then clicked on the "X" to cancel the task. But how do I keep iTunes from automatically transferring the old material?

iTunes/Preferences/Devices - Select "Prevent iPods, iPhone, iPads from syncing automatically."
