IPhone 6 not counting flights of stairs

Isn't iPhone6 meant to track flight of stairs climbed? Health app showing steps but not flights. Anyone else noticed this ?

Found something else interesting tonight regarding delays of data in flights climbed. It was still not reporting accurately by this evening so I went into the health app, selected flights climbed, then show all data, picked a certain time of day that showed a flight and saw something interesting. The delay I had mentioned and others too can be seen in this data. Again by following the steps above you see the date and time the step/flight was actually achieved and then the 'Date Added To Health'. In some case I see this was added almost immediately (say within a minute of the action) but in other cases (today was a good example) I had a flight of stairs walk at 11am yet it was added to health (according to the data) at 2:20pm.
Now this may or may not be an issue, maybe the M8 caches this data and offloads at a certain point but it has me wondering if that delay may be causing data to either disappear or inaccurately represent. Take a look yourselves using the steps above and see what yours say, would be interesting to correlate if others are also seeing data not register between these gaps or delays.
Again don't know at this time if this is working as it should (delay) but it does make me wonder why some data is written immediately whereas the same data at other times is delayed. Maybe this is something that needs calibrating in a later update or indeed could be related to some of the health app issues Apple is already working but at least wanted to share what I was seeing on mine in hopes it helps.
Also for completeness I also noticed this delay in Steps as well again some recorded instantly, some delayed
Thanks

  • IPhone 3G not counting iPod plays--SOLUTION!!!

    If you're iPhone is not counting song plays, check the following:
    1. Make sure you are playing the ENTIRE song. iTunes doesn't count partial plays. (PLEASE send feedback to Apple requesting the ability to set the threshold for how much of a song has to play for it to count.) http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
    2. Ensure that you DO NOT have "Manually manage music and videos" checked in your iPhone summary within iTunes.
    3. If you use playlists that are set to only include checked songs and videos, uncheck "Sync only checked songs and videos" on the iPhone summary page within iTunes.
    I went over these steps with an Apple Product Support Specialist (not just basic Tech Support) and the problem seems solved using the steps above.

    This one doesn't matter. My iphone keeps track and I have always had the playlist set to only include checked items, and have always had the main tab syncing only checked songs and videos.

  • The Health app on my iPhone 6 Plus is not recording flights climbed correctly.

    The Health app on my iPhone 6 Plus is not recording the number of flights of stairs I climb correctly.  It seems I have to go up the stairs 2 plus times before it records 1 flight climbed.  Are there any settings that I can change?

    As far as we can figure out, the hardware is working, but the software isn't, and there aren't any settings to fix it:

  • HT1420 I use two MacBook pro, two iPads and two iPhones. Upon connection and attempt to synchronize photos I receive a message that my authorization limit is exceeded. I read that iOS devices do not count against the authorization limit.

    I use two MacBook pro, two iPads and two iPhones. Upon connection and attempt to synchronize photos I receive a message that my authorization limit is exceeded. I read that iOS devices do not count against the authorization limit. One iPhone and one iPad show in the authorization list. iTunes wants to delete my purchased programs and books from the iPad to continue synchronization. What can I do?

    Ok, now I do wish I could edit....
    I forgot to APPLY the network settings for the USB cable to work. Connected thru USB I can tether.
    So, I kept playing, and playing some more...
    I had previously unpaired everything, and gone as far as removing network devices HOWEVER...
    I didn't remove the Ethernet, Firewire or Airport Network devices.
    Now, I have done so. I REMOVED EVERYTHING
    No pairing, no network devices.
    Bluetooth was already turned off, and I rebooted.
    I turned off tethering and rebooted the iphone.
    I turned on bluetooth (on the MBP), I turned on tethering. I browsed for the iphone. It said I was already paired???? Ok, repair AGAIN, and THE IPHONE SHOWED MY BLUETOOTH TETHERING BLUE BAR at the top of the screen!
    I opened a web page, no go... d4mn, I was close...
    Opened network preferences and the created a new bluetooth PAN and voila! Internet back on the MBP. I am about to reinstall the ethernet and airport (I can live without firewire for now) and see what happens.
    Basically, the link I posted two posts ago, I had already done that, but I NEEDED to remove ethernet, firewire and airport as well...
    So MAYBE it's fixed, we'll see for how long. I'm not going to mark this as answered for now, because basically, it has failed for no reason, and I want to know why...
    Hopefully someone can come up with something, but having to delete and reinstall all pairings and network devices (to me) is not really a solution, it's a workaround (at best).

  • I can't open iTunes on my brand new Mac!I am getting the message that I am exceeding my limit of 5 computers! Huh, I only have two desktops and two laptops (not counting my new MacBook Pro). I do have an old (discarded) laptop that had iTunes! Help!!

    Hi! I have a new MacBook Pro, but I haven't been able to put iTunes on it even though I have used it for years on my iPhone, iPad, and two Windows desktops and two Windows laptops. I keep getting the message that "I am exceeding my iTunes account limit of 5 computers (not counting my iPhone and iPad, which are explicitly excluded from the count according to the message)". As anyone can see, I only have 4 computers, so I should not have any problems with installing iTunes, but this same message says that I need to deauthorize at least one computer or maybe I have extra authorizations on a computer.
    I can't even find a list or map of the computers on my iTunes account! Please, somebody help ASAP!!!!! Thanks!!!!!

  • The iphone could not be updated. An unknown error (occured 4005)

    I have a problem with updating my iPhone 5 to IOS7. Everytime I go to update the iPhone to IOS7, I get this "The iphone could not be updated. An unknown error (occured 4005)" error. It stays stuck at "waiting for iphone" then the 4005 error pops up after like 10-15 minutes of "waiting for iphone".
    Also it leaves my iPhone in the "connect to itunes" screen after the error pops up. And when I try turning the iphone on and off and restarting it, the iphone still stays stuck at the "connect to itunes" screen and I have to use software to unlock the phone so I can actually use my phone.
    The screenshot of this problem is below. Someone help, my itunes is updated to the latest version as well.

    I've got a similar problem only mine says unknown error (2001). During the initial installation of this months update a USB cord plugging in the iTunes icon showed up on the screen. It stayed there for about 2 minutes and then the iPhone rebooted. It repeated this cycle more times then I can count. I'm happy to say that it is now working. But non the less I've been pretty frustrated with the iPhone and Leopard sometimes.
    In response to a comment that it seems that every iTunes related software update seems buggy I would have to say that I agree. I've been using Macs since 1987 and I have to say that in past 3-4 years Apple has changed a lot. It's more popular then ever before. It's products are even more stylish and innovative then ever before. But the rising demand for Macs has forced Apple to cut corners it seems. In some ways Apple products aren't what they used to be.

  • IPhone will not get emails unless my work laptop is running.

    I posted this within another iPhone post but I think this is a more appropriate subject line. I recently changed some rules and alerts (nothing major, simple move to folder A if X is in the subject line stuff). After making the change I noticed that none of my work email is retrieved by the phone when my work laptop is in sleep or off(MobileMe is working fine). If the laptop is running everything works fine. The work tech team stonewalls me as soon as I say iPhone (I can log into our browser-based Exchange server) and based on my past experience with them I'm not counting on them to be of any help.

    Yes, it was 100% (these were done on Outlook and the changes are on the server since I can see them when I log into WebMail). I had been having trouble with Outlook "waiting to update folder" and I made the changes to prevent Outlook from getting caught in that loop. I essentially just moved them around and added two basic rules to keep the inbox tidy. I'll try and deactivate them and see if that helps. Unfortunately that change will also make using the phone difficult since I'm on so many distribution lists with work. Thanks for the reply, Malcolm.

  • Want music on iPhone but not iPod.

    I have more music in my iTunes library than I have room for.  As a result, I had to uncheck some stuff.  I'd like to put that stuff on my iPhone but not the iPod. Does anyone know how I can do this? Thanks for any help.

    One way to do this is to use Smart Playlists. These playlists can be built using pretty much any criteria you want, but here's an example:
    I use this Smart Playlist to keep the music on my iPhone rotating and fresh. When I plug in the iPhone to power every night is syncs with iTunes, updates the play counts then syncs the new music to the playlist.
    So when you sync your iPhone sync just your Smart Playlist, not your entire library.

  • ITunes could not back up the iPhone because not enough free space is available on this computer

    iTunes 11.0.1 (22)
    Mac OS X 10.6.8
    218.83 GB available
    iOS 6.0.2
    iPhone5
    I get this error occasionally since getting the iPhone5 in October. My last successful back up to thei Mac was yesterday. Tonight, no backup.
    One time when this occurred I had trashed files, and after I emptied the Trash the sympton went away. Tonight I had files in the Trash and emptie the Trash before connecting my iPhone and now no backup allowed.
    I have quit and relaunched iTunes, and unconnected and connected the iPhone tonight with no change in the symptom.
    My next counter measure will be to reboot.
    Any suggestions?

    On my computer (Spring 2006 iMac, Snow Leopard, iTunes 11.1.3):
      - I have 1.36 _terabytes_ of free space on my system disk.
      - I have 2.1 _terabytes_ of free space on my Drobo[*] which contains my iTunes library.
    My iPhone is an iPhone 5S 64Gb.
    A backup should require, one would assume, less than 64Gb. In other words, a drop in the ocean of free space available to iTunes.
    ... and yet EVERY time I attempt a backup to my computer since getting my 5S it says:
        'iTunes could not back up the iPhone "[name]'s iPhone" because not enough free space is available on this computer. Removing files and emptying the Trash will free up additional space.'
    It's very clear that there's a bug given how much space I have available, and it's been present for 2+ months. :/ I had been able to back up my iPhone 4S.
    - Stephen
    [*] As far as the OS is concerned, the volume has 3.22Tb free, but it is backed by 2.10Tb of actual available space. In any case, "a whole heck of a lot".

  • I have an apple iphone 4 that I want to download audio books from my library onto it.  I cannot figure out how to do that.  The iphone does not show up on my mac laptop as a connected device.  Does this kind of download have to run through itunes?  Thanks

    Yes it is done through iTunes. The iPhone will never show up in Finder as a device.

    My iPhone wont let me download some apps that i have payed for on on my account; it says my iPhone is not authorized for this computer, but it is.

    No, iTunes never says an iPhone is not authorized.
    This is occurring on a computer, correct?
    Is the computer authorized for the account the media or apps were acquired with?

  • Iphone 5s not detected in my computer

    I use my iphone 5s to take pictures for work and up until about a week ago I had no problems downloading picutres from my phone to my computer, which is a home built computer running windows 7. My iphone shows up in device manager and the drivers are good and it also appears in itunes, however it doesn't show up in my computer as an external device even though there are pictures to be downloaded. I have been on several forums and tried several different things, really hoping someone here knows the answer...
    Thanks,
    Drew

    It won't show up as removable storage since the iphone does not support disk mode. There is nothing for you to do.
