IPhone Locks with AT&T PrePay SMS Notification
iPhone Locks with AT&T PrePay SMS Notification.
I wanted to know if anyone else has experience this issue? Most of symptions are follows:
1.) I get the SMS notification all time whether I use the phone or not.
2.) Once I get the SMS notification, I have to constantly keep tapping on the screen until the phone decides to let me login. Note: Sometimes I have to hit the power buttom and re-tap the screen over and over again til it works.
I was just curious if I am only have this issue's or others to?
It will notify you for every lil' thing you do. If your sending a txt msg, it will let you know, after every call, surfing the internet, checking your email. On your email settings, how often do you have it to check your emails? Manually? Every 15 min? Half hour? One Hour? For example, if you have it checking your emails more frequently (ex. 15 min) you will notice more of them as oppose to checking them every Hour.

Company issued iPhone locked with user's personal account
I work in an IT department and we have had a couple users leave in the past couple weeks and turn in their phones. I have been asked to reassign some of the hardware.
This didn't used to be a problem as I could just wipe the phone and reassign it, but two of the newer phones have been upgraded to iOS 7 and locked with ex-employee's personal accounts.
Is there a way to wipe the phone completely? Is it something I could take to an apple store? Any advice would be appreciated.Restore as new

Apple has nothing to do with this. Finding the owner is up to you. -

Hi, i have iphone 4 and he has icloud account and i forget my email password and my apple id the email is my old email but i don't now the password ,what do you need to now my email and unlock my device
Hello Hesham
Check out the article below to go through resetting your Apple ID password. If you have a rescue email address set up, you can send a email to that alternate email to get it reset. If you have security question, you can answer them to get it reset. If none of those are obtainable, then you will need to contact Apple Support for additional support.
If you forgot your Apple ID password

My iphone was stolen how do i get the iphone blocked with the IMEI number
how to get an iphone locked with the imei number?
Ask your carrier as it varies from country to country. In the USA, I don't believe any carrier maintains blacklisted IMEI numbers. All they will do is cancel the account associated with that number, but they won't track and/or block that number.

Hi wiigy
If you have backed up your phone data you could try a soft reset your device with the code *#7780# + security code 12345
Not a bad suggestion - I'll back up using Nokia PC Suite and try this. Do I just key in the code and hit Send, then enter the password ?

Hi there, my daughter purchased a used iPhone 4S from a local newspaper who has had it in the lost and found for nearly a year, and no one ever claimed it. It is locked with Telus, my daughter is a Virgin Mobile customer. Telus told me they will only unlock it if she activates it with them, she cannot do that as she is in a contract with Virgin. Is there anything I can do to get around this problem?
Only the carrier to which the iPhone is locked can unlock it. In
this case, you must work with Telus. If they have a pay as you go
plan, activate the iPhone on Telus that way and then after
you meet whatever requirements Telus has, stop using Telus
and move the iPhone to Virgin. Or sell the iPhone to someone
who can use it on Telus.
Telus is the only one who can unlock that iPhone. -
How do I unlock an iPhone 4 with iOS 7 and bypass the activation lock?
How do I unlock an iPhone 4 with iOS 7 and bypass the activation lock? I can't find the previous owner and I really want to use my new iPhone, I did purchase it Second-Handed.and now I'm stuck. Ive tried recovery mode and nothing still restores and asks me the same thing. Been working on this forever- Please Help!
If you want to risk your money, fine.
To answer your questions
Is this just an iOS 7 feature?
Yes, Activation Lock is an iOS 7 feature.
Could you not restore the device to an earlier version?
No, you cannot downgrade your iOS device.
That may mean jailbreaking, I'm not sure.
Jailbreaking is not supported by Apple or this forum.
Or what about replacing the motherboard?
There are no user serviceable parts on an iPhone. -

When my iPhone 4S (with ios7) experiences a failed call while connected to my Bluetooth hands free in my car(screen locked) the failed call appears on the locked screen, as it should, the problem arises whenever I unlock the phone, it automatically redials the last failed call, it doesn't do this with missed calls that are on the locked screen, if any. It is really annoying as sometimes the phone doesn't respond to attempts to end the call before it connects to the number. I then have to explain that it was my phone and not me, I look like an idiot, which I don't really need any extra help with!! Does anyone have any ideas? I don't want to stop missed call from showing in the locked screen but it might be associated with the failed calls and therefore be the only resolution
I have had the same issue which was driving me mad but think I have just found a way around it. In iOS 7 if you swipe up on the lock screen to access quick settings and go into timer then click the home button you get into the phone without calling the person back. Not a great 'fix' but hope it works for you. Come on Apple this isn't good enough, fix this bug otherwise you will lose your customers.

Hello everybody
I bought a new iPhone 4 with iOS 6.1.3 installed. When I connected it to itunes for the first time to activate it iTunes asked me to enter the password for an account that the iPhone is locked to like if the device was used before what shall I do? PLease reply soonI can't do that because the device was purchased from United Arab Emirates and I got it as a gift in Syria but the problem is that there is not even a single apple store in Syria so is there another way to fix that, I googled it and was told to jailbreak the device whitch I did and than hacktivated it but the problem is the device doesn't connect to any network and only shows "no service" and the battery draining too fast so is there any other way to fix this issue

How do I use the device, if it is Lock with an Apple ID account of the previous user, and everytime I open the phone the screen will show Activate iPhone with the Apple ID link on the Device. The worse thing is that, i couln't contact the seller any longer and the device is seems useless. I can't use it. Please give me some help how to fix this error and vulnerabilities.
Sorry alvinguibz, but you have encountered an Activation Lock, and unless you can contact the previous owner and have them follow the steps below, you will not be able to use your device:
Removing Previous Owner from Device
There is no other way around this.
Sorry,

"Photos in the Camera Roll of "(your) iPhone" cannot be imported because the device is locked with a passcode. You must unlock the device to import them." That's the new error message when I plug in my iPhone 5 running the latest iOS 7.1 into the MacBook Pro running iPhoto '11 v.9.4.3. My Mac OSX is still 10.8.5.
So, I unlock the iPhone by entering the "passcode" before I plug it into the MBP and still iPhoto does nothing. At least it doesn't issue the error message above.
I've checked both iPhoto preferences and those for Photos and Camera in the Settings on the iPhone. There doesn't seem to be anything to change this lack of connectivity.
What next please?An hour-long phone discussion with Apple Support yesterday solved this question and sorted a couple of others.
As for this one, do not ignore any messages which pop up when you plug in your iPhone and ask "Trust this computer?". The correct reply is "Yes", not "Cancel".
OK, you cancelled like I did, thinking "What on earth is this for?". Mistake. You can force the issue by having iTunes open when you next plug in your iPhone. Tell the iPhone that it can trust its old friend, your computer and voila! Your photos can download into iPhoto again.
Thank you, Jay with Apple Sydney, Australia! -
