IPhone 5c was powered off; when turned back on screen only shows in black and white.  Have tried several times with no success. Any suggestions?

I purchased the iPhone 5c about 4 months ago.  I turned it off briefly last night and when I turned it back on, the screen wallpaper and app icons are now in black and white.  I have tried turning it off and on again several times with no success; screen still shows only black and white.  All other functions of phone/text work correctly. Any suggestions on what to try?

Hello Teri,
You may have greyscale turned on. Try going to Settings > General > Accessibility and toggle that off and it should go back to color. Check out the page below for more information.

  • I rented a movie with i tunes and when trying to play it i can't, i get a message an error ocurred trying to load this content try later. i've tried several times with no success.

    Can't play a movie i rented with i tunes on my apple tv

        I had the same issue. Resolved it by changing the security settings on my router...( log into your router by following your routers instructional guide, most are available online. Under the wireless setting, look for some variation of security settings, change WEP setting to WPA. )
        I was using ethernet cable and not wireless, and still am, but this solved the problem. I have a 1.3Mbps speed connection.
    Fast test to see if its the router....
       If you want to see if it's the routers that is effecting you, and have a iphone 4 or similar smart phone, create a wireless hot spot on the phone and connect the Apple TV to it. Try to view your rental now. If the error message still occurs then its not your router, and you can recommence pulling all your hair out.....

  • When firefox last updated, it would no longer open. I have tried several times to do clean install. Removed folders, emoved registry files associated with firefox. I did a system restore, which seemed worse. Now back to original problem. This error mess

    After uninstalling program, I have also deleted all folders in program flolder associated with mozilla firefox; However the last time none had been put there. Also went into registry and deleted firefox named files. Now just going in circles.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == update downloaded a few days ago and computer restarted.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, maybe after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.

  • Artwork only displays in black and white when adding to a song

    Artwork when importing JPG only shows in black and white. Old artwork is OK in colour previously imported. Note these are for non-ITunes store purchased.

    Never heard of that before!
    Does it show up OK in Windows Media Player?
    WARNING
    You might want to set WMP options before you let it loose on your itunes content.
    It doesn't matter if you never use WMP - its default settings allow webpages to open WMP in the background without you even knowing, and get info from the internet.
    You need to turn this auto-update "feature" off in WMP in 4 places.
    Player tab: everything unchecked so WMP won't touch your files
    Library tab: everything unchecked, esp the box to retrieve info from the internet
    Privacy tab: everything unchecked, esp the box to update files
    Security tab: everything unchecked so web pages can't launch WMP in the background
    You also need to check these 4 settings after every windows update that includes a WMP update, because it has reset them back to some of the defaults, I have noticed.

    Hi there Katherine,
    I have an article here that addresses this error code and can give you a few more troubleshooting suggestions for this issue:
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Check USB connections
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you see your error after changing your USB connections, continue to the next section to troubleshoot your hardware.
    Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!
    Regards,
    Braden

    Hi, I am wondering why my iphone won't send pictures through messages, I have MMS on and I have tried sending it with 3G on aswell and still doesn't work. Someone please help me :)

    Hey lozza567,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues sending MMS messages. The following resource may provide a solution:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
    Issues with sending and receiving MMS
    You will need these to send and receive MMS:
    - An iPhone 3G or later.
    - iOS 3.1 or later.
    - A cellular data connection. MMS isn't available if you are using only Wi-Fi.
    - A domestic MMS plan from your cellular provider. You may need an international messaging plan to send MMS to an international contact. Contact your carrier for more information.
    - A roaming MMS when using a cellular provider's network different from your billing cellular provider's network. Learn more about roaming and contact your carrier for more information.
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving MMS, follow these steps first
    1. Go to Settings and turn airplane mode off.
    2. Go to Settings > Messages and turn MMS Messaging on.
    3. Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Cellular Data on.
    4. Go to Settings > Cellular and turn Data Roaming on if you are roaming on a cellular provider network different from your billing provider's network.
    5. Verify that you have a cellular data connection in the status bar at the top left of your iPhone.
    6. Go to Settings and turn Wi-Fi off. Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify that you have a data connection. Turn Wi-Fi back on to continue using Wi-Fi for other features. If your cellular data connection isn't available, follow these steps.
    7. Verify that you can send and receive SMS. If you are unable to send and receive SMS, see the "Issues with sending and receiving SMS" section, above.
    8. MMS may not be available while on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports.
    9. Restart your iPhone.
    10. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    11. Reseat your SIM card.
    If you are still unable to send or receive MMS, follow these steps
    1. Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    2. Go to Settings > Messages and turn on group messaging if you are sending a group message.
    3. Make sure that you are using the area code with the contact's phone number. When sending messages internationally, you also need the contact's international code.
    4. Verify a "Pay as you go" MMS plan has enough available balance. Contact your carrier if unsure of your MMS plan or available balance.
    5. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    6. If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and re-create the contact from the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    7. Back up and restore your iPhone as new.
    8. If your carrier has recently ported your phone number, the porting process may not be complete. Contact your carrier to confirm that the porting process is complete.
    9. Contact your carrier to verify that you are provisioned to send SMS and are in an area with cellular coverage.
    10. Contact your carrier to verify that there are no blocks or filters placed on your wireless account preventing you from sending SMS.
    11. Your carrier may require APN settings to be modified to use MMS. Learn more about when you should adjust APN settings.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    After searching, found a few answers and tried one last thing-- allowing Safari to accept Cookies. I never use Safari so never changed any settings in it ever. However, I guess an update along the way turned off cookies in it and that was the blockage. Once I allowed Safari to use cookies I was able to redeem the gift card. SO, glad this board is here for these types of questions!!!!

  • I tried to upgrade the ios on the phone and I was asked for my icloud user and password. I don't remember these exactly and I tried several times with different options but unsuccessfully. I also forget my email used to configurate the phone.

    How i said on the question. I tried to upgrade the ios on the phone and I was asked for my icloud user and password. I don’t remember these exactly and I tried several times with different options but unsuccessfully. I also forget my email used to configurate the phone. I have the phone box and the bill. I sent you an email with my problem and attachments with the box informations, the bill and the reset request. What to do? You said to me:
    Your request comes from an unrecognized email domain. Apple accepts email requests only from email domains for Apple-authorized carriers.
    Please re-submit your request using your official carrier domain.
    but this email is authorized, what to do??
