Iphone 6 shows SEARCH IPHONE instead of SPOTLIGHT SEARCH when swipe down the middle of screen. really worried...i'm on ios 8.1 ???please help

when i swipe down my home screen on iPhone 6 it says ''SEARCH iPhone'' instead it should say ''Spotlight Search'' don't know what's the issue. i'm on iOS 8.1 but this problem was there when i was on stock 8.0

According to my device, if you have Spotlight Suggestions and Bing Web Results turned on in Settings>General>Spotlight Search, it will show "Spotlight Search". If you have them turned off, it will show "Search iPhone".
If you have those two options turned on, try toggling them off and then back on again and see if that clears it up. If it doesn't, try resetting your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears. Once the Slide to Unlock screen displays, go to your Home screen and try the Spotlight search again.
Cheers,
GB

  • I hit Forget Network and now cannot get back onto my wireless home network. All of my other computers and iphones are fine.  How do I get the network back?  It shows in my list of networks but when I use the password and try to join it says not connected.

    See if the iPad will accept the password after you restart it. It's worth a try.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    You could also try a reset as well.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

    Hello linaka21,
    Thank you for providing so much detail about the issue you are experiencing with the iTunes Store.
    The first thing I recommend is quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhone:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the iTunes Store, I recommend restarting your phone and then resetting if it's still not working:
    Restarting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhone:

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

My iPhone's connection works fine when connected to the wifi but the MacBook connects for a few seconds then drops completely. What do I do? I tried connecting it to my phone's hotspot and it works perfectly. I'm a new Mac user so I have no idea what to do. I have Comcast xfinity cable and Internet. Thanks for the help.

  • I reset my iphone 5 and went to set it back it up and it says it has to be registered in the developer account. I do not have one of these. PLEASE HELP!!!

    I reset my iphone 5 and went to set it back it up and it says it has to be registered in the developer account. I do not have one of these. PLEASE HELP!!!

    It's beta. It's no where near ready for prime time. It's put out there so that developers can start getting their products ready fo the new release.
    I've been working in IT for over 25 years. People have gotten the wrong idea about what a beta is thanks to the likes of google, who release a product to market and call it "beta" just so they don't actually have to support it. I've beta tested operating systems going all the way back to OS/2 when it was still a joint Microsoft/IBM project. Believe me, you do NOT want beta versions of operating systems getting into the hands of the unwashed masses. It would quickly turn from 'getting rid of bugs' to outright revolt.

  • TS3682 i earsed my iphone frome icloud and it didn't never work it still loading for 3 hours and still not working ? please help me so fast

    i earsed my iphone frome icloud and it didn't never work it still loading for 3 hours and still not working ? please help me so fast

    First man up and admit, that itunes does not suggest, but tells you that update is available and you made a
    decision to download and update. Once you man up - think if you still under warranty. If that is not security
    software according to the link provided, it is hardware. So second try another network, may be your network
    has additional security or firewall. And third decide if it worth to you pay 149 for that phone or get it replaced.
    Unless your 3gs under warranty.

    My iphone 5 don't open when i slide the screen. It does nothing at all. It's just 3weeks since i used it.

    Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart itself, ignore the "slide to power off", let the iPhone restart itself. Usually take about 10 seconds of holding both buttons.
