IPhone 5 dead after July 2014 update

MY iPhone 5 is dead after update. Apple has no answers but to sell me a new phone.  Any good advice ?

After last update battery drained within a few hours, same after recharge.  Apple told me I have a dead battery and would replace same model for $260 (sorry, that is not small change and I live 3 hours from next Apple store).  Therefore had a local cyberstore install a new battery, however it drained just like the original.  Any different advice?  I understand that my options with the Apple store may be over since I let the cyberstore touchy it.
Yup, since Cyberstore performed unauthorized service on the device, the warranty for your iPhone has been voided, and that even includes the $79 battery replacement option from Apple or the $269 Out of Warranty option from Apple.
You have a paperweight now.  Sell it for parts to someone that performs unauthorized service, like Cyberstore.  Maybe they'll use it for parts to void another person's iPhone.
Next time, don't get unauthorized service done on your iPhone.

  • After Sept 2014 update Radio stops playing after 4 - 10 minutes.

    Apple TV 3rd generation, rev A.
    After Sept 2014 update Radio stops playing after 4 - 10 minutes. Before update, Apple TV played Radio without problems.
    Apple, please provide a reliable means to roll back to previous state.
    Please DO NOT release another update, as you will break something else.
    I'd rather have trouble free Radio streaming than "A fresh new look for Apple TV".
    Haha, just tried to select my product under the comment section, Apple TV 3 is not even listed, good one Apple!

    Same issues here. Since iOS 8 my Apple TV 3 powers itself down mid airplay, restarts itself, and once off has to be turned by on by it's actual remote. Once it randomly shuts down the Airplay option on all devices is removed and I have to find the remote and click any button to power it back up again. Then it can play for hours or ten minutes and it will just power itself right back off.
    Increasing the sleep timer to 30min from 15min seems to have helped space out the power downs some, but it still seems very random.

  • HT4623 iphone went dead after update

    iphone went black after update

    Connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable and Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to respond. Usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. If still problems, try DFU Mode Restore. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time.

  • Form Controls stop working after December 2014 Updates

    For some users, Form Controls (FM20.dll) are no longer working as expected after installing MS14-082 Microsoft Office Security Updates for December 2014. Issues are experienced at times such as when they open files with existing VBA projects using forms
    controls, try to insert a forms control in to a new worksheet or run third party software that may use these components.
    You may received errors such as:
    "Cannot insert object"
    "Object library invalid or contains references to object definitions that could not be found"
    "The program used to create this object is Forms. That program is either not installed on your computer or it is not responding. To edit this object, install Forms or ensure that any dialog boxes in Forms are closed."  
    * Note In this last error message, the Forms text may also be replaced by the GUID of the control.
    Additionally, you may be unable to use or change properties of an ActiveX control on a worksheet or receive an error when trying to refer to an ActiveX control as a member of a worksheet via code.
    Steps to follow after the update:
    After updating, the cached control type libraries (extender files) may be out of sync. To resolve this issue, you must delete the cached versions of the control type libraries (extender files) on the client computer. To do this, perform a search on your
    hard disk for files that have the ".exd" file name extension and delete all the .exd files that you find. These .exd files will be re-created automatically when you use the new controls the next time that you use VBA. These extender files will be
    under the user's profile and may also be in other locations, such as the following:
    %appdata%\Microsoft\forms
    %temp%\Excel8.0
    %temp%\VBE
    Scripting solution:
    Because this problem may affect more than one machine, it is also possible to create a scripting solution to delete the EXD files and run the script as part of the logon process using a policy. The script you would need should contain the following lines
    and would need to be run for each USER as the .exd files are USER specific.
    del %temp%\vbe\*.exd
    del %temp%\excel8.0\*.exd
    del %appdata%\microsoft\forms\*.exd
    del %appdata%\microsoft\local\*.exd
    del %temp%\word8.0\*.exd
    del %temp%\ PPT11.0\*.exd
    Additional step:
    If the steps above do not resolve your issue, another step that can be tested (see warning below):
    1. On a fully updated machine and after removing the .exd files, open the file in Excel with edit permissions.
    2. Open Visual Basic for Applications > modify the project by adding a comment or edit of some kind to any code module  > Debug > Compile VBAProject.
    3. Save and reopen the file. Test for resolution.
    If resolved, provide this updated project to additional users.
    Warning: If this step resolves your issue, be aware that after deploying this updated project to the other users, these users will also need to have the updates applied on their systems and .exd files removed as well.
    If this does not resolve your issue, it may be a different issue and further troubleshooting may be necessary.

    In case it is of any help in identifying why this update caused errors, the specific instance I have experienced is as follows:
    The application uses Visual Basic (6.5) for Excel.  The piece of code causing an error (438) was as follows:
    Public currcombo(12) As ComboBox 
    Sub comboset()
    '   set up comboboxes for test selection
     With Workbooks(currCRW).Sheets("client results")
    '   set up test selection combo controls
        Set currcombo(1) = .F14
        Set currcombo(2) = .F15
        Set currcombo(3) = .F16
    . . . . .etc
    The error occurred on the first Set statement where 
    In this case (in two environments: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and 32 bit, Excel 2007)  the cure was to uninstall the problem security update KB2596927.

  • I have to turn off 3G ntework to keep my Iphone 3G alive after 3.1 update.

    I never used tethering or jailbreak on my iphone 3G. However, I got punished by Apple for not doing that!
    After 3.1 update, my iphone 3G got a serious problem. It can not make/receive any phone calls, browse internet, and play internet-based games after sitting idle for a while (i.e I do not use it for 30 minutes).
    To get it back to alive again, I have to do a hard reset. I missed many important calls and reset my iphone about 8 times every day in the past few days.
    Called AT&T:
    They had no clue about it. Asked me to do a hard reset first, then performed a network test on my iphone. They said "everything works just fine, case closed!" **** it,I told that useless CS at least three times that the problem comes after sitting idle for a while. If I perform a hard reset, everything will be back to normal temporally.
    Called Apple:
    They ssked me to restore it first. I spent several hours to back up and restore my Iphone 3G. Problem not fixed at all. Apple, you own me 4 hours here.
    They also suggested me to have Apple store technician take a look. But the only store in Indiana is closed for remodeling and will be open again in two weeks.
    Called Apple again:
    This time, they acknowledged the issue. They said their developers are working on this issue. A new update will be out in 2-4 weeks. The only solution they offered is hard reset. Useless!
    Me:
    I did some research online, figure out that the problem has something to do with the 3G network. If I disable the 3G network in the Setting, my iphone works just fine(of course, no more 3G speed).
    Apple, please recall your 3.1 update! I just want 3.01 back, or fix the issue now. Is that too much to ask?
    I hope that I can get an acceptable answer in this forum.

    With all the problems I have read with the 3.1, the best thing to do is go back to download 3.0.1 and install through iTunes. Here is the link to all of the hardware:
    http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/
    If you don't know how to do this, I will guide you so you don't have to deal with 3.1 until all the problems have been solved.

  • IPhone 4S bricked after 6.1 update - iTunes errors 21/1611

    Yesterday my iPhone 4S asked me to install the iOS 6.1 update (via the Settings.app) "over the air". After downloading and preparing the update, the iPhone rebooted itself to start the update process.
    Unfortunately, this is where it all went wrong. It seems like the iPhone update failed somewhere along this process. It is now stuck in "Recovery Mode", with the picture showing me to connect the phone to iTunes.
    I have tried countless times restoring the phone via iTunes, on 4 different computers, and on Windows 7 and OS X.
    Nothing works. The restore process fails during the "Preparing iPhone" phase.
    Here's what happens every time:
    I can see the phone being restarted.
    The Apple logo shows up, and a little wheel in the bottom of the screen starts spinning
    As soon as (usually even before) the progress bar shows up on the phone, the device suddenly shuts down
    The iPhone reboots right back into recovery mode, asking me to connect to iTunes
    I'm quite desperate at this point. I have followed all steps imaginable (including turning off Windows firewall and antivirus software), but even then the restore still won't complete. iTunes always gives me the same error: 1611.
    When putting the phone into DFU manually, it gives me another error: 21.
    Both seem to point to third-party security software interfering with the restore process.
    However, having tried this on 4 different computers, I am 99% sure that this is not the issue. So far I've tried:
    HP Laptop - Windows 7
    Asus Desktop - Windows 7
    2010 Macbook Pro 15" - OS X Mountain Lion + Windows 8 (Bootcamp)
    2010 Macbook Pro 13" - OS X Mountain Lion
    Also, I should mention that in Belgium there aren't any official Apple Stores where I can book an appointment at a Genius Bar. Is this 4S doomed?

    @Hasan123
    Hasan123Unfortunately I wouldn't be able to downgrade to lower iOS versions even if I managed to get a restore going...

    Antivirus and firewall are off, access to the Apple update verification servers is not the problem...

  • Missing workspaces after IllustratorCC (2014) update

    Title says it all. After the latest IllustratorCC(2014) update I noticed my normal workspace didn't load. Figured after an update just needed to sync settings...nothing. Then check Ai workspaces folder, just the presets. Even "Time Machined" the Ai workspaces folder, never saw my old workspaces. Not sure if that was where they were originally, but within Illustrator I used to easily pull it up. Are they gone? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    I could fix this by accident. I am on Mac. Quit Illustrator. Go to … Users/Your_Username/Library/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator 18 Settings/Your_Language. Inside this folder is a folder called Changed Workspaces. The Workspaces folder is for whatever reason empty. Move the Workspace File you can't access within Illustrator to your Desktop. Start Illustrator, quit Illustrator. Move the file back into this folder. Start Illustrator again. In my case all workspaces appear now correctly.

  • IPhone not recognized after Mac security update

    I have a Mac iBook G4 running OSX 10.4.11, and an iPhone 3G running OS 3.0. Up to now they have worked fine together. The phone was charged on the iBook this morning. This afternoon I ran software update on the Mac which installed the latest security update (2009-05, I think). After that, the phone is not recognized when plugged in the USB port. It no longer charges, nor is it recognized by iTunes.
    I have checked the following to be sure that the security update is the culprit:
    The iPhone with the same cable works fine on another Mac (running 10.5).
    Other devices (thumb drive, printer) work fine in the same USB ports.
    Finally, I restarted the iBook from the original installation CD for OSX 10.4. When running with the original version, the iPhone is recognized correctly.
    So, I am reporting a problem with the security update, and I need to know how to back it off, or how to get it fixed.
    Thanks for any help.
    NOTE: Software update also installed iTunes 9.0.1 along with updates to Quicktime and Safari. However, none of these apps even have to be running to show that the phone will not charge.

    The problem was solved by resetting the System Management Unit, thanks to a helpful phone call with an Apple Expert. On the iBook this required unplugging, removing the battery, and holding the power button in for 15 seconds.
    Earlier I tried zapping the PRAM, as someone suggested, but the phone was not recognized. But it turns out it did show up in the System Profiler.
    I have no idea why this happened in the first place, right after the software update.

  • HT4623 Bad Iphone 4S Performance after last OSi update

    Last year my wife & I upgraded from 3GS' to 4S';  We have really been happy with the units, but after the last OSi update, the phone performance took a nose-dive and has not recovered.... I keep trying to update, thinking that a patch or something would appear, but it always says that we're up-to-date....
    Our service is through AT&T and I was given a "micro-cell" unit to install at the house, which boosted the signal up to the time of the update and now both phones drop calls in the kitchen about 20' from the room with the "micro-cell" in it.... I'm really disgusted with the poor performance.... I updated my wife's first and she noticed the change almost immediately; I updated my phone about 2 weeks later, and then my phone started performing poorly too; Does anyone know what I can do to at least get the old performance back????iOS 6.1.3 is what the phone says I have... and it tells me that I am up-to-date.

    Nope. I waited until next day when its battery ran out, I couldn't do much that day. Then, after recharging, I connected it to the Mac again. It didn't recognize my iPhone. iTunes could only reset and update it. But, when it was about 60-70% of the update, came Error 3194. I'm going to a technical assistance once again.
