IPhone 4S updated to ios 7.1.2 update and problems with contacts

I have and iPhone 4S and updated to iOS 7.1.2.  I now find I can't add new contacts or notes because the keyboard doesn't appear?  Has anyone had a similar problem and is there a solution that doesn't mean waiting until the new iOS update later in the year?

I found this tip on the internet which suggested a hard reboot might solve the problem. It worked for me. 
Press and hold the Home button and the on/off button at the same time for a few seconds - the phone will shut off (apple logo appears then the screen goes black). Then turn the phone on again which boots up the home page screen. I logged in and the keyboard now appears as usual when adding phone contacts.
Hope this solves your problem too.  Interesting to discover there is more help with fixing this bug elsewhere on the internet than from Apple Support who provided the update in the first place!

  • 10.5.3 update and problems with ReadyNAS server

    After updating to 10.5.3, I have had some problems with photoshop files on my Netgear ReadyNAS server
    • I worked on a couple of photoshop files - files that existed previous to the update. I made some changes and saved them.
    • Later, when I tried to open those files, I got the following error message and I'm not able to do anything with the file:
    *Could not complete your request because it is not a valid Photoshop document.*
    • It appears that new files created, saved, worked on later and save out again work fine. In other words, files created after the update don't appear to experience the same issue.
    • I've also seen the problem when creating new files in DVDPRO HD format with a square pixel aspect ratio and with layers.
    • I tried the same routine on local drives on my hard drive and had no problems. So, it doesn't appear to be a problem with my Macbook
    • I also tried the same tasks with my tower before I updated the software and didn't have any problems. After the tower was updated, I tried the exact same thing and received the error message.
    So, everything is telling me that the issue stems from the Mac update. So far, I only see the problem with .psd files - other formats don't seem to be a problem yet. I tried InDesign docs, flash files and they look to be fine. Strangely enough, jpgs changed in photoshop don't seem to be an issue either - just .psd files.
    Checked with Netgear and they weren't a whole lot of help. They claimed it might take 60-90 days for an update on their end. Is anyone else experiencing this problem on their server? Any suggestions on what to do?

    Having exactly the same problem and it is crippling my design studio from last night. Saved a previously created before the update Photoshop file (110mb) yesterday evening after doing the Apple update, opened it this morning, no joy.
    It seems that this problem has been around before but not that I'm aware with the ReadyNAS server. Adobe say that you shouldn't use a networked server as they don't support this way of saving:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb403815&sliceId=2
    Sorry that this post is brief but we are copying all the files to a separate server as we have deadlines. All I can say is nice work Apple. *****!!! The same goes to Adobe.

  • Switching iPhones and problems with contacts

    I upgraded my iPhone so I am giving my old one to my boys. I was able to sign into iMessage and FaceTime with their apple id, but I can't remove my phone number. This doesn't seem to be a problem except when I change the contacts on one phone, it automatically changes it on the other phone. No matter which phone is changed, it changes the other one. I don't know if this is because the phone number is still associated with the old phone or not but that is the only thing I can figure out. Thanks for your help!

    I figured it out! I had to delete account in he iCloud settings. I was scared to hit this button because I deleted my backup once and lost all my apps. Deleting the account is different I guess. Now my old phone is not linked to the new phone.

  • I have a Iphone4. Trying to update from 4.3.3 to IOS 5 or 6.  There is no 'Update Software' button under Utilities/General. Tried updating using Itunes but it comes up 'The Iphone software update server cannot be contacted' ????

    iOS 4.3.3 doesnt have the "Update your Software" tab so you will need to go to itunes and back up your iphone then restore your iphone and it will download the latest iphone software (6.1.4) if you dont want 6.1.4 download your current version and hit shift on your keyboard (alt if your on Mac I think) and click restore iphone and find your downloaded software 4.3.3 then download iOS 5 or 6 and do the samething after your phone boots up from restoring it to 4.3.3.

    Since I upgrade my iphone 3gs to ios 5.1, I have several problems with network and wi-fi, any solution? (No jailbreak)
    Most of the time the iphone cannot reach any network and when it can, there is no data transfer, I can only make calls and sms.

    You will have to contact the previous owner, only he/she can remove the phone from their account. You don't have any contact details for the person that you bought the phone from, email address, phone number, postal address ? If you can't contact them then you won't be able to reactivate and use the phone.

    my ipad2 show itunes and the usb but in my macbook shows iphone software update serves cannot be contacted... pls. anyone can help.

    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem

    Apple guys are deleting posts. I have found my posts have been deleted. Apple should MUST let us downgrade at least to previous release from current which was working fine.

  • Update/Insert Problem with Oracle Warehouse Builder

    Hello,
    i have update/insert problem with owb.
    Situation: I have a source-table called s_account and a target table called w_account_d. In the target table are already data which was filled trough the source table inserts. Now anyone make changes on data on the target table. This changes should now give further on the source table with an update operation. But exactly here is the problem i can´t map back the data to source because that will create a loop.
    My idea was to set a trigger but i can´t find this component in owb or is anywhere hidden?
    Also i have already seen properties as CDC or conditonal loading in the property inspector of the table, but i have no idea how it works.
    Give it other possibilities to modeling this case? or can anyone me explain how i can implement this eventually with CDC?
    I look forward for your replies :)

    Hi
    thanks for your answer. I follow your suggestion and have set the constraints of both tables into the database directly.Nevertheless it doesn´t work to begin. In the next step i found by right click on a table the listpoint "configure" - I goes to "unique key" --> creation method and set here follow options: Constraint State = ENABLE, Constraint Validation = Validate. That error message that appears before by the deployment disappears yet. Now i start the job to test if the insert/update process works right. Finally it seems to work - but not really.
    My Testscenario
    1. Load the data from source table about the staging area to data warehouse table: Check - it works!
    2. Change one data record in source table
    3. Load the source table with changed data record once again to staging area: Check - it works!
    4. Load new staging area table with the changed data record to data warehouse table: Check it works! BUT, BUT i can not recognize if it is insert or update operation, then under the design window by jobs execution windows is reported "rows selected 98", Rows inserted" is empty and "rows updated" is empty. So i think works not correct, then my opinion if it works correct it should show be "rows updated" 1.
    What can yet now still be wrong or forgotten? Any ideas?
    *By the way think not 98 rows there is not important if you make an update or insert which performance. It is an example table the right tables have million of records.*
    I look forward for your answers :)
