Is my iPhone 4 greyed out wifi and non working bluetooth software or hardware... seems that the forums are full of this issue with no consistent or official answer. is it all coincidence that so many are having the problem? Please help... I have scoured the net trying everything the last few days.

Please correct your porfile: iPhone 4 do not have IOS 6.1.4.
The usual troubleshooting steps are, also remember to test it after every step:
1. Restart
2. Reset
3. Restore from backup
4. Restore as new.
If no joy, make an Appointment with the Apple genius and have them evaluate

  • TS1559 still no solution for greyed out wifi and bluetooth - what to do? been messing around with it for weeks and now discover I'm just outside of warranty period? WHAT?

    I am in such a predicament - phone not been quite right since the 6.1 update and I was tolerating the inconvenience of switching off and on etc etc for the past couple of months and now the wifi and bluetooth are totally greyed out all the time - did every restore possible including back to factory settings - still no luck - please don't tell me that trying all the solutions over the past 2 months that temporarily worked for a few days at a time will now mean I have timed myself out of the 1 year warranty? arghhhhh (I can't believe that such an issue will create the response 'oh well, your problem - best just buy another one' ???)
    I can't just drop everything and drive to the apple store and wait for hours every time there's a 'glitch' otherwise I may as well move nextdoor to the mall. They tell you to try and solve it yourself first - which I did - and now it's not responding to anything I try, will I be told - 'too late, out of warranty'???
    I see theres an update for the iphone 5 that fixes wifi bugs - what about us 4s owners? even my 3 year old 3gs is still working on wifi (haven't dared to update it!) so don't start telling me to expect that the iphone will only last 13 months - NOT AT $600 a piece
    This is madness and driving me crazy
    Please has anyone had any luck fixing this problem???

    well, you know how it is - glitches that usually resolve with a hard reset etc
    then a restore. then a factory restore....then ..... nothing fixes so I try the next step with apple online - fill out my serial number and find it is a couple of weeks out of date - and then with the holidays who has time to get to the apple store? this is my second 4s handset as it is - first one the glass cracked from L to R without any impact/damage etc - they changed it out automatically because it's a 'known fault' apparently - so technically, this handset is only 6 months old - but warranty is from original purchase date -
    never imagined it would turn out to be a warranty issue with the phone - and hey maybe when I get a chance to go to the apple store they'll be sympathetic, but I won't be able to get there till at least Jan 4th as it is. On the other hand, another iOS update might resolve the issue - but how long till that release? at the moment I'm having to use my old 3gs for wifi and 4s for phone!!!

  • TS1559 4s iphone grayed out wifi and have taken all steps and still no wifi

    I have turned the phone on and off. Reset the network. Reset the entire phone and still no wifi. When I updated it has never worked properly.
    I have read that many people are having this problem. Why does Apple not have a fix for this.  It is obviously something wrong with the phone.
    If anyone has any suggestions on how to reset the phone to get back Wifi let me know.

    Grayed out WiFi is almost always a hardware failure that requires replacment or repair of the phone.  If you tried everything in the article that led you here without success, take to to Apple or an Apple authorized service provider.
    FYI, do NOT try the "freezer" or "hairdryer" methods you may see posted.  At best, they are only temporarly fixes and are likely to cause more damage.

  • My iPod 3g said it had no songs, the wifi was greyed out, my videos wouldnt work,bluetooth wouldnt work, and apps crashed

    So i'm travelling in Vietnam. Staying at this hotel, my ipod suddenly stopped being able to search for wifi, and constantly had the 'circle' indicating loading.. however my music and apps were still intact. However, i restarted my ipod, and when i turned it back on it said  had no songs and no videos when i loaded Music, and when i tried using apps they showed the initial default screen of the app and then crashed. i tried connecting it to itunes, but itunes said it could not read the ipod, so it suggested i restore it. i googled solutions but none of them worked, and my music for itunes is scattered in my laptop and my computer back home. not being able to find solutions, i restored my ipod, and so now all my music is gone. i have to say im extremely disappointed with Apple for not giving solutions that work. im sure countless other people have this problem ( from what i read on forums, they do) . anyone had this problem and actually fixed it without restoring? i'd like to know for the future. thank you.

    Here is Apples' troubleshooting for grayed out wifi. Frequently however, it does not solve the problem and an appointment at the Genus Bar of a an Apple store is in order.

  • Greyed out wifi and draining battery

    My wifi is greyed out and my battery keeps draining after 10 hours while on stand by. I have to turn my phone off so I dont have to keep charging it, and turn on 3G everytime I need to check for messages. According to research, this is an ios 7 problem.
    I'm really annoyed because my warranty has run out and I have to pay for a replacement of a phone which is out dated anyway.
    Not sure whether to take it to a local phone shop and get the wifi chip and battery repaired or to just buy a new phone even though this replacement phone was given to my by apple in February.
    Apple have lost me as a customer, and I declare to no longer buy from them.

    Have exactly the same problem as you. I would sit tight if I were you. Might get a free replacement from Apple in near future

    On start up my MBA would not boot up the apple logo came on but only a blank screen appeared no fan i followed several start up recommendations but to no avail so I  took the MBA to the nearest Apple repair centre again the same symptoms on start up ......very sorry sir you need a new mother board that will be $500 not feeling confidant in the product declined and was going to put it on ebay for spares.
    On return home I pressed the start up button and it started normally everything was working fine i decided to reinstall all the software what has caused the problem I have no idea but it is after several attempted reboots it finally started on its own so don't give up if you have this problem it may come to life

  • Recently loaded Firefox Update 3.6.15,message appeared saying the file is corrupt. This appears to have impacted our proxy server and ability to stream video from BBC I-player? Has anyone else had this issue with 3.6.15, if so how did you resolve it?

    Received upgrade notification for Mozilla to 3.6.15 which we undertook. The computer after completing this activity now cannot stream video through our proxy provider from BBC I-player, even though we have ensured we have the latest Flash Plug-in. The system was working perfectly prior to this event. Even if we delete and re-download the update, the file loads and then when asked to run, "File Corrupt message appears. Please advise or provide solution if possible. Thanks

  • Using gmail - multiple copies of mail being written are forwarded to the trash -did not have this issue with 10.6.8 -

    I have two Imacs - the master one is plugged in directly into the modem, it runs with 10.6.8 and works fine (this computer is not connected to Icloud)- the other  is connected to a router which is connected to the master unit and the modem. that unit was upgraded to 10.9.4 and it is connected to Icloud - both Imacs use gmail accounts for e-mail.
    The "slave" unit running on 10.9.4 creates multiple copies of mail being written and sends those copies to the trash file. We have had up to fifty copies of one e-mail in the trash. That computer worked fine under OSX10.6.8 - We have visited the apple store genius bar with this Imac, and consulted the apple phone support service to no avail.
    while it does take a long time to transmit the e-mails, addressees get only one copy. Your help will be appreciated.

    9/16/14 update - another call to apple phone support revealed that this is a known issue that has no solution at this time.

  • 990fxa gd80 raid 0 problem please help me i am begging you

    so i will start with my set up
    990fxa dg80 mb
    fx 8350 cpu
    780ti
    8 gig of ram
    256 hdd
    2x samsung 850 evo
    750 hybrid drive
    So at this stage all my data is on the 750 hdd and the disk is stored away. my problem started with me buyng 2 mx100 256 ssds . If my bios is set to ide or ahci they work fine i had my windows instaled on 1 of them all woks fine. Once i switch my bios to raid ( before i set up my raid 0) boot up win 7 instalation i do not see any drives ( i know is normal) load the drivers for the raid controler (sb950 for w7 as it says in themanual) and only my 256 hdd shows up but not the ssds . Than i set them up in ld raid 0 same problem . Tryed on another 2 mbs ... 1 same and a gygabite same problem. So i was sure there is a problem with ssds. I got rid of them got 2 new 850 evo 250 gb same problem. please help me i am so desparate i am willing to pay woth body organs for help

    I..have a few questions...
    1. You set BIOS to the RAID mode, and under that option there's a Board SATA RAID ROM, do you set it as Legacy ROM?
    2. Did you enter Ctrl+F to initialize the drives/Delete Array(If they're used SSDs) and create RAID0?
    3. Is your Win7 64 bit or 32 bit?
    4. I assume it's 64 bit, did you copy the W764 folder for driver loading?
    And make sure you get the driver from here:

  • Itunes 10.6.1.7 I have 2 sets of playlists the first set displays greyed out lists and does not work The second set is fine. How do I get rid of the non working set of playlists?

    I have 2 sets of playlists in the sidebar of itunes. I have recently upgraded to 10.6.1.7 but this condition remains the same
    The top list refers to greyed out listings and does not function
    The list below works fine
    How do I get rid of the "false" list?

    I think the greyed out playlists must be listed from your device which is set up to mirror your library. Because the device is synced you can't edit content directly on the device. From the top of the left-hand column do you have?
    Library > Music, Movies...
    Store > iTunes Store, iTunes Match...
    Devices > <Your Device> > Music, Movies, and all the other "dummy" lists...
    Genius > Genius, Genius Mixes...
    Playlists > iTunes DJ, and then all your playlist folders and playlists...
    If so then that is perfectly normal when your device is connected, either directly or over wi-fi and you have the lists expanded. Simply click the small triangle to the left of the device name to hide all the playlists.

  • Hello sir my iphone screen turns off after using 2-5 minutes what would be the problem please help me out

    hello sir my iphone screen turns off after using 2-5 minutes what would be the problem please help me out

    To make sure that this is not software related, set it back to factory settings, without using any backup data afterwards. Set up the rest of the personal settings manually and test the phone. If it still does not work, this is a hardware issue and the phone has to be serviced by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:
