Iphone 6 rotates to landscape while holding phone in portrait while using mail or messaging. Then will randomly switch back.

iphone 6 rotates to landscape while holding phone in portrait while using mail or messaging. Then will randomly switch back. try to lock and unlock phone close mail app in bakground and relaunch. etc. Then it will randomly switch back. Any Thoughts?!! Do I have a Bad motion sensor?

that worked until today, so 5 days of success. I think ill just try portrait lock until I need landscape. I guess that's kinda what it's there for
appreciate the help though
if anyone thinks of a more permanent solution, would appreciate that as well
thank you

HT3529 My friend switched his phone number from an iPhone to a Blackberry. My phone still wants to use iMessage to send him a text and won't let me send it as a text unless I turn off iMessage on my phone. Is there a fix for this?

TechCrunch posted a solution today that applies to this problem, I think.
Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
Click your old iPhone and "unregister" it.

I'm afraid you're out of luck. If it says incomplete you won't be able to access the backup.

I was on iTunes on my computer trying to drag a song from my iPhone 4 to my computer but when I connected my phone to the computer using a USB cable then it said that it couldn't connect to my phone because I need to get the later version of iTunes. How?

My iphone 4s has switched off and will not switch back on even when its connected to power charger or laptop. can someone help please

Just read that someone had the same problem on 3gs and someone had replied to press the home button and power button at same time, so I tried this and within a few seconds my phone had switched itself back on.

Is it possible to make horizontal videos while holding phone vertical?

I wonder if it was possible to always shoot videos horizontal?
I find it is easier to hold a phone vertical while filming but the video material ***** when it is vertical.
The best example is when you film yourself with the front camera. You hold the phone vertical but what you get in the end is some silly, ugly vertical video.

It is not possible unless you download a app but if you shot the video horizontal and then you can play it while hold the phone vertical

I have the find my iphone app and I lost my phone and want to use it but how?

I think I still have like 4.2.2 features, but I know I downloaded it to my phone I'm at work but now I don't know how to make the app work from my work computer. Is the iCloud account like the apple or iTunes account?
iCloud is Apple's new online service, replacing mobileme - http://www.apple.com/icloud/. The web account page is https://www.icloud.com/
Find my iPhone is a feature of iCloud - http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/find-my.html
And again, the downloadable app has nothing to do with making your iPhone discoverable by find my iphone. The app is used by a device to find another device which has had the trackable feature enabled in its iCloud account settings. Simply having the app on a device does NOT make that device trackable. In order to be able to find a device, you need to have an iCloud account on that device, and you need to enable the find-my-iPhone setting under that account - nothing to do with the app at all.

Can I use a iphone 4 with Targets bright spot phone carrier, can I use a iphone 4 with Targets bright spot phone carrier

I have an Iphone 4 & am going thru Targets Bright Spot phone plan can I use an Iphone or do I have to continue to use their android phone

Brightspot does not appear to be an authorized iPhone carrier - at least they're not listed in Apple's official list:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937
so this is probably something you will need to work out with Brightspot. They appear to be a MVNO for T-Mobile, so perhaps something here will help:

If not, then you're going to have to call Brightspot.

Iphone 3GS freezes when using 3G or wireless then won't turn back on unless on charge - help!

My iphone freezes and its doing it on a daily basis now multiple times and I don't know why.
I've restored it, reset the network settings but neither has worked. It tends to freeze on the move when on 3G but it does also freeze when I'm connected to either my own or another wireless network.
When it freezes the screen goes almost blank but you can still see what was last on the screen faintly with lines all over it. More often than not it will not come back on unless I can plug it in to charge (even when the battery is at 100%) which out and about I can't always do.
I try holding down the home button and the top button, just the top button and the apple logo will come on but then that will freeze as well and the phone doesn't actually come back on.
At first I thought it was the battery as it does it more when the battery is below 50% and then the low battery symbol will suddenly appear when I try to put it back on but today for example it was on 89% and I was on my own wireless trying to upload a photo to Facebook and it froze.
I also thought it was down to Facebook photos when it first started happening but it will freeze on any app that uses 3G and if it does it when I'm on my emails when the phone does eventually come back on and I to delete and re-enter my email accounts otherwise that app just shuts down straight away.
The other thing I tried after researching is turning off location services but it still froze even without this feature turned on.
It's very frustrating so I'm desperate to sort it as I can't afford a new phone, this was a gift from a friend who had upgraded his iphone so I've had his old one. It didn't do this straight away and I can't think that it's done it from any particular moment. I've deleted some questionable apps, just in case, but that's made no difference.
Any ideas? I've found a place locally who can replace the battery for about £30 which I'm lead to believe is quite cheap as I know I couldn't do it myself but could a battery be causing what I'm assuming are network/software issues?
Any help much appreciated - it scares me that my phone will sometimes not come on when I'm out and about as I could desperately need it one day when it does it.

Could be faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for quick free battery diagnostic testing.

HT1414 iphone 4S problem. When the phone finally comes on the apple logo shows, then a cable has a pointed arrow to the words iTunes under a blue circle with a music note symbol. I tried holding the on button & search at the same time. It did not work,

How is a 4S iphone reset when it is stuck on a picture of a blue music circle, the word iTunes under it, and a cable pointing to the circle.

It's trying to tell you to plug it into your computer running iTunes. It's in recovery mode and needs to be restored.
