IPhone 4S, Wi-Fi selector in phone settings greyed out.

My phone software was recently upgraded through ITunes to IOS 6.1.3, and since then my Wi-Fi is off and the selector in settings is "greyed out"

    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.

  • Linux Flashplayer10 settings greyed out

    Hello,
    since the update to Version 10 (I think) I can not access the settings when I right click on a flash. The settings greyed out. What can I do to access the settings again?
    My system: Ubuntu Hardy with FF 3.0.15 and FlashPlayer 10,0,32,18
    Thanks for help.

    Hi, You can use this test site and it will also display what version of Flash Player Installed. The version you listed is very old.

    If Flash Player is Installed correctly you should also see the Flash logo aninmate(spin).

  • Hi, today I upgraded my iphone 4 to an iphone 5. I backed up and synced my data on itunes and icloud. My new iphone however reverted to my 2011 phone settings. how do i get yesterday's settings back and get my contacts and photos from icloud onto new phon

    Just to give you a bit more detail. I upgraded my iphone 4 to an iphone 5 today. Last night I backed up and synced all my messages, photos and contacts on itunes and icloud. When I connected the new iphone 5 to itunes today, it somehow reverted back to my old phone settings from 2011 :S So now, I have apps, particularly games, that are incomplete. My contacts have numbers that are out of date and I have none of the photos that were taken in the past year. My 2012 messages are gone and old messages from 2011 are there. Now, all my phone data had been regularly stored and synced with itunes and icloud. So why did it revert back to 2011 phone settings and how can I get it to change to the settings that existed last night? Also all my information on icloud, how do I get that onto my new iphone? If I go on www.icloud.com and sign in, all my photos, contacts, mail and messages are there, but I have no idea how to transfer that to my new iphone 5. Any help on all of these issues would be appreciated, thanks.

    In Regards to this, You possibly wont be able to get the contacts from the iPhone 4 unless there is a back up file on your computer.
    The original phone would be disabled due to alot of attempts of the wrong passcode. If all your contacts are on the cloud at the moment, you would be able to just set the iPhone 4S up with iCloud on it then Turn On "Contacts".
    This would be bring all the contacts down from your iCloud onto your 4S.
    But you will only be able to merge your contacts with the cloud when your original iPhone either has been enabled or the passcode was entered.
    If you have previously already had iCloud on that device and have contacts Turned on, you will be able to just enter the same Apple ID you used for iCLoud on your original phone and use it on your new one.
    Your able to check what content your iCloud holds via www.icloud.com
    If you are unable to get past the disabled screen, then unfortunately the device will have to be put into recovery mode and then restored via iTunes NOTE: This will delete all data.

  • TS3992 I am not able to backup my iphone to Icloud because my wi-fi is greyed out on my phone. The wi-fi button will not slide to the ON position, therefore, Iam unable to backup my phones contents. What can I do?

    I am not able to backup my Iphone to Icloud because my wi-fi is greyed outon my phone.  The wi-fi button will not slide to the ON position, therefore, Iam unable to backup my phones contents. What can I do? I need to save my pics, info....etc, because I have to get another phone.

    Back up to your computer instead.  To do this, connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Back Up Now.  Also go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases to transfer your apps and other purchased media to your iTunes library.  Finally, save any photo stream photos to your camera roll (open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll), then import your camera roll photos and videos to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  (You don't need to delete them from your phone afterwards unless you need the space.)
    If you're getting another phone, be sure to delete your iCloud account and turn off iMessage, FaceTime and Game Center before doing so.  (See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661).

  • Nike Settings Greyed Out on iPhone 4S

    I have an iPhone 4S, and I wanted to use my Nike + sensor with it (I've been using a nano up to now).
    I go into settings, Nike +, and the on/off switch is greyed out, along with all the other settings. The only thing tappable is "Go to Nike +".
    I showed this to friends, and all of theirs enable them to toggle the switch to "on". Mine seems to be the anomaly.
    I tried activating with a sensor in close proximity (and active), and I even tried plugging a receiver in to see if that would wake anything up, but I just got the "Your iPhone has a built-in sensor" message, with no other outcomes.
    Any suggestions?
    Cheers,
    Cody

  • Can't change APN settings (greyed out)

    Hi, I have been reading a lot about my problem on this forum and on other BB-forums. I hope someone can help me because the historic forum-answers were quite depressing. . . I bought my new BB Q10 - without a simcard - last week from a well known Dutch webshop. I inserted my Rabo Mobiel simcard that I used in my BB curve. With the BB Curve and this simcard I have been emailing and browsing the internet for 3 years without problems. I can call and text with the BBQ10 but I can't get the internet working. The APN settings were already filled on this BB Q10 - unfortunately not with the APN name from Rabo Mobiel. It says: portalmmm.nl which is probably 'pre-installed' by Blackberry Holland and it is one of the APN names of the KPN provider in Holland. I can change the "portalmmm.nl" into "Rabo" but then I need to set Verification Type to PAP and that is not possible. The Verification field is greyed out and I cannot change it. I tried many ways and even tried to access the escreen:// option (which I couldn't get working) . I made phonecalls to Rabo Mobiel (they say they didn't change anything and no, they use no username and password for APN, only Rabo as account name), to the webshop (no we don't know who installs our Blackberries) and KPN (they gave me the telephone number of Blackberry but I can't get any one on the phone there!). The webshop says: please return your phone. But I know the next BBq10 will probably have the same problem. So can someone - preferably a Blackberry Technician - help me? I would really appreciate it! kind regards, Angela

    hi (93) readers,
    I was wondering if there's anyone who recognizes this, or can make any suggestions? Blackberry helpdesk at Twitter is not responding anymore and only tells me to go to retailer or provider (and they remain completely silent after that)
    Thanx,
    Angela

  • Why are SMTP server settings greyed out?

    My dad's AOL account was broken into and he had to change his password.  The problem is that he can't send mail from his iPhone anymore, and my guess is that the password in his outbound settings is incorrect.  But all the SMTP settings for this account are greyed out.
    Anyone know what the story is here?
    Thanks.

    It is nothing to do with allowed content. Grey bug was triggered because you selected a "helpful" profile in Add Account. If you are lucky SMTP credentials may be copied from your IMAP ones. I was able to change Gmail password with just IMAP.
    BTW the password does not echo. This silly given that it is unlikely such a device would ever be used with a TTY or printing terminal. Password display would allow stronger passwords. I have not used or even seen a TTY in decades.
    However, I am old enough to remember TTYs and sessions in the trash. If password did echo then you would only need the first part of a session.

  • ICloud, Settings greyed out - screen that says 'Account not Verified'

    Hello, I upgraded my iPhone with latest OS and didn't setup my iCloud upon activation.  Now when I go to my Settings and go to iCloud, I get a greyed out screen that says 'Account not Verified' 'Check your email for instructions', but none come???  Can someone tell me how to get it activated any other way?

  • TS1398 Updated iphone 4s to ios 7.1.1 - Wifi Greyed Out

    Updated my iphone 4s to IOS 7.1.1 , 4-29-2014, and every since the update to 7.1.1. my WIFI has been greyed out no matter where I am.  I have done all the resets, but resetting to like new, still no WIFI.  This seems to be a on going problem with lots of others.  There are all sorts of ways to attempt to fix.  Today, a co-worker was not able to receive calls after he updated to 7.1.1 and he took to cell provider and he downloaded a patch, which took all of 2 minutes and he is now able to receive calls.  I called Apple support to see if they could help and they said it was a hardware problem and they could sell me a iphone for $199.00.  I believe there should be a patch or something else to do with the Software issue, besides a blow dryer and freezer method,
    Can anyone Help with a solution or advise what the issue is with the 7.1.1 update????  

    I - like so many - am having the same problems. And they are actually getting worst with the phone starting to freeze. Problems started after 7.1.1 was installed. I have tried all recommendations and nothing works. The only procedure that worked temporarily was putting the phone in the freezer (sounds crazy) but it did work. Why Apple does not want to take responsibility and fix the problem is disappointing.
