IPhone 5 - Virus Detected Pop Up and then Contact Nearest Store Pop Up!
Turns our i'm not the only one either buy only one person I know has had the same problem.
Anyone experienced this and what is it?
Appreciate comments I had my banks app on my Phone with my log in detials so I am a bit worried.
Did the alert look like this one?
I believe this is what a text message looks like when it's sent from an blocked phone number. Sounds like someone is playing a prank on you or someone is out there randomly freaking people out.
EDIT: Yep, did a little more digging, there appears to be an application out there that allows you to send an SMS without your number and this type of message is not saved in your Messages app.

Iphone will vibrate for no reason and then a icon will pop up
iphone will vibrate for no reason and then an icon will pop flashing
I have a strange, similar problem with my new iphone 3G - it will just start vibrating (mild, not like a full vibrate for an incoming call). It does this for no apparent reason and appears to last about 30 seconds or so and then stops, again for no reason. This was happening one time when a call came in (it started before the call). I answered the call and the vibration made it difficult to hear clearly until it stopped midway through the call.
Is this normal? -
i tried updating my iphone 4 to ios 5.01 and then chnged my mind and tried to turn it off halfway the updating process.. now i can't turn it on... PLEASE HELP!
Hi jonnarink,
Try this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
In short:
1) Make sure the iPhone is not connected to USB and, if it is on, turn it off by holding the power button and the home button together(takes about 6 seconds)
2) Once it's completely off, hold down the home button
3) While holding home, connect the USB cable and keep holding home until iTunes recognises the iPhone
It will force the iPhone into recovery mode, then you can connect to iTunes and restore your backup. Bear in mind that it will likely need to be updated to 5.0.1 anyway.
:edit:
Sorry, just saw Ralph Landry1's post above mine(typed mine a while ago, only posted now!) with the same link -
My entire iTunes library is missing on my two non-Apple computers. My libraries still exist on my iPad and iPhone though. I tried deauthorizing and then reauthorizing my devices, uninstalling and then reinstalling iTunes and nothing works. What happened?

Iphone 5 turns off by itself and then turns on
iphone 5 turns off by itself and then turns on
Mine it's the same! Did you solve this already? Right before it turns off, it has a fade away screen or shows stripes! Then automatically turns back on! Now this problem happens more often!
I've reboot the iphone and restore it but still does the same.
How can I resolve this please?
Thanks! -
every time I try to sync my phone and restore my content after I updated my iPhone, iTunes goes through the prompts and then says "cancelling sync" at step 5. I cannot restore my apps or music!
when i try to sync my music which i have on my PC's itunes it will just not transfere on the phone. everything will sync [apps, videos, contacts] but the music will just not transfere.
and when i try to download the music from the phone's itunes store it will say "Error. Tap again to retry".
Thera are no more details i have! i have no idea why the songs will not sync and will not download! -
Is there a reason that I can't download the latest update for my iPhone 4? It downloads halfway and then stops.
Have you ever jailbroken your iPhone with tether? Because if you have the jailbreak keeps a file on your phone making it so you can't update. To solve this problem your going to have to reset your phone.

Can I download my data from an iphone to another device, edit it and then upload it back to the iPhone?
I want to free up memory?IT depends on what "data" you are asking about.
if you are having storage issues on your phone, I would be happy to make suggestions.
You can store pictures and documents in Dropbox or Google drive. These are cloud storage apps that keep your information stored off the phone, but available any time. You can send pages documents to either app in a different format for editing.
make sure you delete old messages, phone logs, email, as they take up space also. -

Is it possible to buy an iPhone 4s unlocked in the US, and then use it normally and completely into France with Freemobile (which provides micro-SIM) ?
I'm travelling to NYC tomorrow and that would be 100€ less than in France...Thank you for the quick answer
Do you mean that I can't reserve and pick up my phone in the local apple store as it's explained on the site (http://www.apple.com/retail/iphone/) ?
What about the social security number asked in the formulary ? I've got a French one...

I have many songs on my iphone that play half way through and then the sound just stops, when I look at my phone the song is still playing, just no sound. Any help on how I can fix this?
Could be a defective SIM. Try a new one from your carrier.

Hi Brennahunt,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPhone is not recognized by iTunes for Windows, try these troubleshooting steps first:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
If the steps in the article above do not solve the issue, completely remove and reinstall iTunes using the method in this article:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
This process should not affect any music or content on your computer, but you may want to
back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive.
When reinstalling iTunes (step 3 in the article above), be sure that you are logged in to your computer as an Administrator:
Make sure you have an administrator account.
To install iTunes or QuickTime, you need to log in as an administrator on the computer. If you're not sure you have an administrator account, you may find this Microsoft article helpful: Windows 7: How do I log on as an administrator?You can refer to the Help documentation from Microsoft, contact your IT department, or visitsupport.microsoft.com for more information.

I am trying to change country to US for iTunes on my iPad. After I select US in account setting and press NEXT I get message: "Cannot connect to iTunes" and then "The iTunes Store could not process your request. Please true again later". Help please.
downloaded the updated iTunes and that did nothing. I then went through the form about $ very VERY carefully and discovered one field left blank. Once that was filled in, everything worked and I now have my free app.

My iPhone 4s always reads 100% Battery and then crashes
Help!
My iPhone 4s is completely up to date, I have done a complete reset, and a hard reset... multiple times. My battery gague won't waver from 100%, and then it crashes. When I try to charge it, it gives me the "plug in" picture, indicating that it is fully charged when it crashed seconds ago. What else can I try?The best bet there would be to maybe try to wipe the phone and then reset it from a back up in iCloud or iTunes. If that does not work you should take the phone to the apple store and they will, if you are still in warrenty, replace it right there.
