Issues with iPhone 5 since upgrading to iOS 8

Hi,  Just wondering if anyone else out there is having problems with iPhone 5 after upgrading to new software level? I noticed after install (seemed to go smoothly but slowly) that my phone now seems to have a hard time when I power the phone on. It seems to take forever, and sometimes have to hit the power and home buttons together to force the action. I realize this could be some other hardware issue, but it strange that it only started after the upgrade.  Everything else seems to be normal after the initial difficulties, but it has never done this to me before.  Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.

Also, phone freezes and will not answer incoming call when you swipe.  Poor phone voice connections with constant dropped calls.  It doesn't seem to recognize my 3G microcell

  • Reception / Battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1

    There are major reception and battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1.
    I can not believe that Apple did not test this for major bugs like this one is.
    I am a business user and can not effort to have bad reception. Apple wants to gain in the business clients... I never had this with my former BlackBerrys!
    I need a reliable phone not a play thing like this is right now, it just needs it to work propely. And if a major bug like this comes along, fix it immediately. After the iPhone4 story, now this...incredible! Going back to my reliable BlackBerry! It just ain't reliable and takes forever to fix a problem.

    I have the same issue after iOS 4.2.1 update. I am using iPhone 3GS officially unlocked by Apple. I tried using different SIM cards and both carriers show same problem when using phone in 3G mode. Phone falls back to EDGE mode showing 'E' from '3G' at start. I have reset the phone and rebooted several times and moved to different cell areas in the city just to verify the problem.
    I had no such issues earlier. I also have Nokia E71 which shows full signal and has no such issues.
    I have posted the bug on apple iphone feedback page. I hope they Apple will fix the problem and test the release properly on all models before releasing to public.

  • Iphone 4 since upgrade to ios 5.1.1 no longer works with made for itunes, iphone devices.

    Ever since I upgraded to IOS 5.1.1 my Iphone no longer works for playing music thorugh my Apline car unit, My Logic 3 clock radio, and a Next made for ipod device.
    I can sync through ITunes on the PC and can also play videos through the HDMI adapter.   My wifes iphone 4s and the kids  hand me down iphone 3s still play fine through these made for Itunes , Ipod , Iphone devices.
    I want to downgrade back to the prior IOS  I had before Apple encouraged me to install this bugged one.   How do I go about getting a legit non jailbroken prior IOS version installed on my Iphone?
    Is Apple aware of this issue , as I have seen blogs about this it is affecting other people?   Will this issue be resolved with ios 6?
    Can I get the beta ?
    Thanks,
    Douglas

    Agreed. Same thing here. Just bought a late model Alpine INE-S920Hd and it is all kinds of broken. I think this is happening because Apple shifted the music and video. Totally buggy. Bluetooth refuses to work properly, too. A2dp keeps stealing the audio from Pandora in the Alpine interface. The ipod controls dont work at all.

  • Call issues on iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 5.1.1

    Ever since I upgraded to the IOS 5.1.1 my iPhone 4 has been having call issues. When I make or receive calls the other person can hear me for 5 seconds and then they can't hear me, but I can hear them. It is almost like the mute button is on, but I check it every time and it isn't on. I reset the factory settings, I reset the network settings and I checked the SIM card and nothing has fixed the problem. My phone has NEVER given me problems before and this is really frustrating. Anybody know what is causing this or how to fix it?? Please help!
    Thanks!

    Apple has not been forthcoming on the explanation. My Siri worked on my iphone4 (not 4s) immediately after upgrading to IOS5, but I take it they have redirected the servers that used to support Siri to only work with Iphone4s.
    It is one thing for apple to only bundle the improved Siri with IPhone 4S, or  for them to remove Siri from the Ap store.
    But it is another thing all together for apple to purchase a company, and then cease the service that many of us paid for.
    Attempts to contact apple at apple store and via email have been unhelpful.

  • Tips to fix battery issue on iphone 4s after upgrading to iOS 6.0

    ladies and gentlemen.....i think i found a simple solution but its the only way to fix the problem until apple decides to gives us a patch.
    i have an iphone 4s and yesterday i did the upgrade to 6.0
    this morning i noticed my battery was draining faster than normal then i decided to do this.
    i did a full reset and when i set it up i did it as a new iphone without using any of the restore points.
    before you do this you need to make sure your contacts and photos are stored in icloud.
    once you are all done with the restore you need to do all the tips for battery life including turning off gps on stuff you dont need and how often data is pushed from the server.  one thing i like to do is every morning when i charge my phone is i clear the cache and browser history and close any open apps and then i shut down, wait a few minutes and turn back on
    i work on the street nearly 11 hours daily and i listen to music, watch youtube videos, browse the web, use facebook and instagram and by the time i go home i still have 20% left in the battery

    The issue is probably specific to your iPhone:
    Something may have gone amiss in the upgrade to iOS 6.1.3 on your iPhone.
    To correct this follow these steps:
    Backup your iPhone using iTunes or iCloud.
    Use iTunes to completely restore your iPhone as new.
    Setup your iPhone and monitor battery usage to see if it is normal. If not, you may have a hardware problem - if so, contact Apple support.
    Restore your iPhone from your backup above.
    Check battery usage to confirm that it remains normal.

  • HT5642 WiFi speed issues with iPhone 4S since the update

    Since the update the WiFi on the iPhone is terrible. I run a 50mb speed and barley get 2mb. My iPad is getting 39mb speed. Is there a problem with this update for the iPhone that affects WiFi speed?

    I am having the same issue since updating to iOS 6.  It has been noticeable on my iPhone 4S and a little less noticeable on my iPad 3 but I think it is happening on the iPad too.  Very annoying problem.  One way to get it to work better is to re-boot your phone.  It will work for awhile then and then eventually not be working anymore and you will need to re-boot again.
    Just to be clear with everyone - the iPhone looks like it is connected to the wireless, it gets an IP address but can't transmit any data.  Device:  iPhone 4S, OS:  iOS6

  • Issues with Outlook 2011 since upgrading to Yosemite

    Hi,
    I have reached out to Microsoft for this issue and they are saying it's an issue with Apple, so I don't really know who to reach out to.  I am running Yosemite 10.10.1 on my Macbook Pro.  I have had Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac installed on this computer since I purchased it in 2010.  Everything ran fine until I upgraded to Yosemite.  Other than everything running waaaay slower than it did before the upgrade (slower than my Dell, if that tells you anything), my main issue is that my AOL email account will not sync incoming messages correctly in Outlook.  It syncs both of my other email accounts just fine, but the AOL account is off.  It imports only some emails and then it also converts emails that I have read on my phone into blank "no subject", "no sender" messages.  The messages all still show just fine on aol.com and on my iphone.  Very weird.  I have completely uninstalled & reinstalled Microsoft Office, so I am assuming that it's not a problem with office, but with Yosemite.  Any one else have a similar problem? 
    Again, I know this might not be the best forum for this question, but my Apple friends are the smartest people I know, so I'm hoping someone out there can help me out (and Microsoft has NOT been helpful at all)! 
    Thanks!

    In late November I bought a second Macbook pro simply to have assured redundancy .  Friday AOL stopped working on both computers and then another client em using MS server also failed.
    I can read mail but not send ..........  my guess is that it is the last Yosemite upgrade
    I wonder how Timmy would feel if he launched in the Apple jet only to find that it's landing gear would not extend on landing because Gulfstream had sneaked into the hangar and modified the landing gear, knowing that it would fail.     if he can visualize how I feel having been unable to work on a number of critical problems over the weekend. I bought two mac's because I wanted superior performance, not because I wanted to be a software troubleshooter. Simply an inexcusable betrayal of Apples customers ..

  • IPhone stuck since upgrading to IOS 7

    Hello
    Disclaimer - I know this has come up several times before and I have tried several ways to solve this issue but nothing has worked so far.
    I upgraded to ios 7 and got to the terms and conditions page but wont take me to the next page (after hitting agree or disagree).
    1 - My iphone 4 has a broken power button so I cannot restart it.
    2 - iTunes doesn't want to do a restore to previous back up. I disabled "Find my iPhone" from icloud but itunes still thinks it is enabled.
    3 - I have downloaded a free app using itunes on my mac but no terms and conditions page dialog has come up.
    These are all the fixes I can find from searching around but if anyone has any other things for me to try please let me know. I have a genius bar appointment booked for Friday (earliest one available) so thats a week I have to wait without being able to use my phone :-(

    The phone is pretty old and out with the warranty, but I am taking it into the apple store to see what they can do. I wish I never upgraded.

  • I can't sync my purchased ringtones on my iPhone 4 since upgrading to iOS 5 5

    I can't sync ringtones that I purchased before I upgraded to ios 5! I see them on iTunes but they won't sync on my phone please help me! I don't want to have to repurchase them, doesn't seem fair, thank you!

    You can try putting the iPod into Recovery Mode and restoring it:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If that doesn't work, then sorry but the jailbreak may have permanently corrupted your iPod. Since we cannot help with jailbroken devices in these forums, you'll need to look elsewhere for additional suggestions and advice.

  • Calendar sync issues with iPhone 2.2 upgrade

    I have an original iPhone which I sync with Outlook 2003 on my PC. After upgrading to the 2.2 firmware for the iPhone, the calendars no longer sync in either direction. Contacts still work perfectly, as do the iTunes libraries. Just as with the 2.0 upgrade, Outlook calendars (without exchange) are messed up, only this time there is no sync at all.
    If similar issues are happening to you, please add to this thread and/or report to Apple.

    After spending literally hours with AppleCare and on my own, we found that the only way to get the calendar to sync as to create a new Outlook profile, and have that calendar sync. It worked fine, but I was not able to have my legacy calendar. I just moved over my mail, contacts, and tasks (export to PST file from old Outlook profile).
    To create a new Outlook profile:
    1. Open Control Panel
    2. Go to Mail (who knew this existed!!)
    3. Choose Show Profiles
    4. Click Add
    5. Set the box below to "Always Use this Profile" and select your new profile.
    You will have a brand new Outlook. Then you can test by putting one item in the new calendar. Set the sync setting in iTunes only to do the calendar, and hopefully this fixes it. You will at least get your last 30 days data this way sync'd back to the PC.
    The upgrades played havoc with some people's calendars, and while it is really annoying, I am running again.

  • Serious issues with AirTunes playback since "upgrading" to iTunes 7.3.2 (6)

    Dear All,
    I'd appreciate your help - I use iTunes a lot, and absolutely love it. Most of the time, I use my stereo for playback, via AirTunes. While the delay in connecting with the stereo has increased significantly over the past eighteen months or so (it used to take about one and a half seconds to connect to the speakers, whereas now, anything below ten seconds can be considered quick), and there seem to be some minor issues (after pausing, you cannot always resume the playback without switching to the MacBook's speakers, and then back to the remote speakters) that never really bothered me.
    Anyhow, since upgrading to iTunes 7.3.2 (6) three days ago, things have gone seriously wrong. I never had any playback issues in iTunes, even over very long periods of continuous use. Now, however, the playback just stops periodically, and sometimes restarts on its own after a second or two. Sometimes, however, it doesn't - and using the remote control to restart the playback doesn't work either.
    I should add that the hardware situation is unchanged, and that I always use my iPod, via my MacBook Pro.
    Thanks already for your help.
    Thomas

    Do you have ReadyBoost enabled on the PC? If so, by way of experiment, try disabling that as per the instructions from the following document:

    ... any help at all with the performance issues?

  • Mac calendar and contacts won't sync with iPhone 5 since upgrading to Mavericks.

    Please,please, help,
    My mac calendar and contacts (and who know what else) won't sync with my iPhone 5 since updating to Mavericks. I have lost new medical appointments on my mac which never synced to my iPhone. I am completely frazzled as I am a very busy mum (who isn't!) and the call centre is closed! A am a bit of a technophobe but have discovered the "info" tab that appears when I connect my iphone to my mac to sync has disappeared with Mavericks. I hope someone out there can help me.

    Yes, you can reinstall your system from the backup you made before installing Mavericks. See this link
