IPhone Slow to Open Messages

We have roughly 80 iPhones deployed all tied to Exchange 2003. These are mostly iPhone 4 and about 10 iPhone 4S units. We have one iPhone 4S which is problematic. It is running IOS 5.0.1 (as most of them are) and opens e-mail very slowly. By open I don't mean pulls down from server. It's in the list of items, you click it, and it's very slow to open. We decided to erase the iPhone and then restore. Same issue. We then placed the phone in recovery mode, and restored. Same thing. I then took an iPhone 4, erased and loaded a fresh copy of IOS 5.0.1. Activated e-mail only (no restore pulling in data to eliminate any apps or other items that might be causing the issue) and the same thing occurs. We tested both over Wifi and 3G and same result. This caused me to believe there must be something wrong with the individuals Exchange mailbox. My next move was to have them move everything out of their mailbox to an archive eliminating a high e-mail count in the mailbox. Still the same issue. Oddly, the same person has an first gen iPad, configured the same way and it open the emails very quickly which would then basically rule out the Exchange e-mail account. Anyone have some ideas?

I have been fighting the same thing for many moons. My Exchange provider has no clue. I upgraded my 3 GS to IOs 5 and this is what happened. I subsequently got a 4S (iOS 5.x), same trouble.
The provider had me change the server I connect to. After it all resyncs, I'll see if it's better. If not, I am going to disable Activesync on the server, and then re-provision it and start over. Don't know what to do after that. Gmail works fine.
My provider said it was a known issue with iOS 5 and it is the fault of Microsoft's activesync serever software. To my knowledge they have been unable to get a patch from Microsoft. My iPad works fine 99% of the time. And what is stranger, other users in my organization have no issues. Weird.

Hi Barry,
I can suggest is a firmware update, if you are not already on the latest which is 12.043. If you are already on the latest version you could try a reset. Before you reset you will need to backup your phone because the reset could wipe out all your data. Try the following resets, the first and then the second if the first does not work.
Always remember to backup your phone before performing resets as your data may be lost.
First try these
*#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default
*#7370# - Reformat your phone
Personally I'd leave it for a few days to see if the problem resolves itself before I attempt the resets, which can be a bit of a pain.

HT4946 My iphone won't open, message on screen states iphone is not backed up. when I hit the ok button it remains locked. what can I do?

My iphone won"t open. There is a message on the screen that states that iphone is not backed up. when I click the ok button nothing happens. It was workin until today.

By "open", I think you mean you cannot unlock your iPhone.
If that's true, here's the remedy:

Mail slow to open messages

I'm running a Core Duo MacBook Pro, 2GB RAM, OS X 10.5.5.
Recently (and I'm not sure if this followed an update or not), I've been having serious lack-of-speed issues with Mail. When I open a message, the window pops up immediately, followed quickly (sometimes a slight delay but usually not a perceptible one) by the headers. It then takes about 40-45 seconds (counting to 40-one-thousand, haven't used a stopwatch) for the message body to come up.
This happens with emails from both POP and IMAP accounts, in both my inbox as well as "normal" folders on my Mac. I do have a decent number of accounts (some POP, some IMAP) and a whole lot of mail saved on my Mac, but that's been true since before I started having this problem.
I've tried rebuilding a mailbox, and it didn't ameliorate the problem.
Any other thoughts appreciated.

I am a heavy email user - 100 to 200 emails a day sometimes. My Apple Mail was so slow that I got in the habit of clicking on an email and then going to another application to keep working and check back from time to time to see the email opened. I'd then read it, click on another and repeat the process. a serious drag on productivity. I came across this tip on another site and it worked very well for me. Not sure how long it will last.
Here is the link:

Here is the meat of the post:
+You can check your current 'envelope archive' size by entering this in the terminal:+
+ls -lah ~/Library/Mail/Envelope\ Index+
+Then to optimise it (cleans out stuff that has been marked for deletion but not actually deleted, defragments the structure, etc):+
+sqlite3 ~/Library/Mail/Envelope\ Index vacuum;+
+Then check your envelope archive size again to see the results…+
+ls -lah ~/Library/Mail/Envelope\ Index+
+It compacted my envelope archive down from 55MB to 50MB — not a huge increase, but the speed difference was dramatic.+

8800 Very Slow At Opening New Messages

I have a 8800 running the 4.5.0.124 version of the software and it is very slow when opening messages.
This only happens when opening unread messages and can take 1 minute+ to open. Once an email has been opened once it is instant. (Even messages that have only been read in Outlook). When it is 'opening' the message the device is completly unresponsive then will suddenly either open the message or if it has been longer it will lock the device.
I have also tried using the 4.5.0.55 software and this still has the same issue.
There are no entries being put into the error log while this is happening.

N70 Slow to open applications etc...

Hi, can anyone tell me why the N70 is slow on startup and slow to open messages, or any other aspect on the phone. This is infuriating.
I am with Orange. Firmware version after pressing *#0000# comes up as 2.0537.1.718-09-05 RM-84 but I wouldn't have a clue what this means.
Thanks

2.0537.1.7 = the phone's software (firmware) version number
18-09-05 = the date it was created/built/compiled
RM-84 = Nokia's product code for the N70
Based on the discussions here the slowness seems to (might) be related to operator customized phone software (firmware) versions (at least those versions starting from 2, like yours 2.05...etc.).
Generic/retail versions of firmware are already at version 3.something for the N70 (newer/more recent, that is).
A Nokia service/repair center should be able to update your phone. Find the nearest one and ask them:

Pages 09 slow to open documents on iPhone 4

Hi
I've got iWork on my iPhone 4 and my iPad 2, as well as iWork 09 on Mountain Lion. I notice when I open a pages file on my iPhone, after it's been created on Mountain Lion and synced with iCloud, it is slow to load. This is after it gives a message about it looking different on iOS compared to my Mac. It then asks me if I want use "Open Copy" instead.
Is the slowness of opening the document due to some conversion? Is there a way of making the Pages documents load faster in some way and can this apply to the rest of iWork as well?
Thanks

Hey Ben Gunn,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, multiple apps will not open or access the internet. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a good one,

Mail won't delete messages from Iphone unless I open Mail.

I have an Exchange account set up and use MS Outlook at work. I do receive my email via push on my Iphone 4s. However, when I delete a message from my MS Outlook at work, it won't delete from my Iphone UNLESS I open up Mail. Anyone else have this issue?
I did change the setting of pushing my delete items folder in the mail settings on my Iphone. Still did nothing.

Mel,
One more thing to check on your computer...iCal>Preferences...>Accounts>Account Information>iCloud>Refresh Calendars:>Push
If that is not helpful, go through the procedures listed in iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar.

Return the iPhone and get your money back. It has been
hacked/modified/jailbroken and likely cannot be made
operative.

Hi turingtest2 (you pass, BTW): Thanks for the speedy reply. MobileMe doesn't appear in the list of programs which can be uninstalled.

Delete all back ups on MacBook and create new back up. Restart his MB and attempt to restore again. Do not forget to erase your iphone 5 before restore.

This issue is delaying my abiliy to receive and respond to email messages in a timely manner.
Please Help.

Hi Chris. Thanks, for the suggestions re: my email issues. They were helpful and yes I did check all items you referenced. I even contacted Apple support and spent about 40 minutes on phone checking all settings. However, after all these efforts, my mail and calendar issues were not resolved. Apple Support finally recommended deleting the mail account and then reloading it - and it worked! I am now receiving my emails and calendar appts. in real time again.
Just wanted to share this in case anyone elest has a similar problem with mail/calendar after downloaing i.O.S. 8.1 onto iPhone 5.
Thanks, again.
