Location services wont work on my iphone 4, when up dating facebook status doesn't say "nearyby" how do i get it to work?
need help! location services arrow wont turn purple and everything is on !
The password is set on the WiFi router providing the service, by the owner of the network to prevent unwanted "guests" accessing the network. The only way to know it is to ask the owner permission to use the network. Otherwise, you have to find a free WiFi hotspot that doesn't require a password.

I would not suggest starting anew AppleID as you will have problems with previous purchases.

How doesn't it work?
so when i downloaded itunes back and signed in none of my music was there.
Because it is part of your old AppleID (and your library does not just magically appear).
Did you make a backup of your HD?
jhow do i download all my music from my iphone 5 to my laptop
Authorize your computer for your old AppleID then File > Devices, select your device then Transfer purchases.
I highly suggest you sort out the issue with your old AppleID and continue to use that. Remove your personal info from the new AppleID and don't use it. -
HT4623 I can't activate Location Services after installing ios& on Iphone 5.... any ideas?
I can't activate Location Services after installing ios& on Iphone 5.... any ideas?
I had the same issue with one of the three iPhones I updated on Wednesday. There are many processes that are working for people including:
- Resetting the device several times
- Toggling the "Dont' Allow Changes" setting under "Restrictions --> Location Services"
- Disabling Restrictions altogether.
- Restoring from backup
I was able to restore location services by selecting "Reset" and choosing "Erase All Content and Settings" to set the phone up as new. When the phone resets and goes through the setup process, I was given the option to turn on location services. I then restored from backup and was good to go.
Some people have been able to resolve the issue by resetting but only using "Reset All Settings" without having to erase all content, but that did not work for me. It took a while to get everything back to normal, but it is good to know that there was a somewhat simple solution. -

Why are my location services not working?
I received a new iPod touch yesterday, and it is now running iOS 5. I can't get the location services to work from my home. On my old 2nd generation touch, they work perfectly. I've check all of my settings regarding the location services and everything is 'on'.
Jim, Barry,
This for the replies. For what it is worth, I am confident all settings are OK, at least all the obvious ones. I just cannot see what is missing. In terms of what is not working, all Apps having a location option / button (Maps, Google Earth, etc) do not provide location. For example, Maps will reply by showing a "Cannot determine location" message. The same applies to the two iPads in the house and to whatever iPads enters on my Wi-Fi.
Ideas? -
IPod Touch location service doesnt work at all.
Hi guys, just having this issue, I have my iPod touch since 8 months ago, It worked fine, perfect. I upgrade it to iOS 5 and it worked fine, it was perfect.
But today the location service doesnt work, I triend with the google maps app, the Facebook and Twitter app and the location icon doesnt even appear in the screan, so I restart it and then I restore all the network configuration and the location warings, but the location service doesnt work.
I also tried to use Find my iPod on icloud.com but it says that couldn't locate it.
Any idea?
Thanks!Hi Philly_Phan, Thanks for your help,
Today I went to my college and guess what? the location service was working perfectly again, but when I get home it didn't work, I was thinking about this:
I know iPod doesnt have a GPS, it use WiFi to find where you are, but, a week ago it was working fine at home, now it doesnt, the funny thing is that even if the iPod can not locate you, it should show the little location icon on the top of the screen. Dont you?
I mean, even if the iDevice can't find any know hotspot near, it should show the little icon. So, does the ipod connect to any server somewhere arround the world? or use any special port that maybe my router/ISP is blocking?
Any idea?
Thanks sooooo much! -
Why does my location services not work properly?
Over a week ago, my location services stopped working. I can't view local weather on the default weather app, the default map can't find my location, and none of the other apps I have that look for location can view my location. I tried turning location services off and back on but it won't fix the problem. How can I fix this while waiting for the computer to be repaired?
Haven't checked at home, but if this is the problem, then how come it still won't work at places like Starbucks or other wifi hotspots? I'm at Starbucks right now, logged on and checked my email so I saw your reply, remembered that the router disconnected me at home last week and then I was able to get back on. So, I thought maybe that's the problem - what you said - so I tested my location on the map and it STILL won't work! I'm so irritated about it, since I rely on that app to help me determine the distance and time to walk to locations from my current location.
I was able to "solve" the weather app by just adding my city instead of using the local weather. I'm hoping I can try restoring my iPod later this week if the laptop gets fixed by then. I HATE restoring, though. I could do it using iCloud but most of my music is off CD's and I haven't paid the $25 to upload all of that so I'd temporarily lose those songs. -

i bought an eBook from iTunes. I can view/read it perfectly on my iPhone but when I try to open the eBook file on my iPad, I get the error message, "Cannot open book. This book is protected by an incompatible technology." Any ideas for me? thx
Welcome to the Apple Community.
I have seen previous versions mentioned in a pop up message before on iCloud.com, but I'm not really sure at all how it would help, as I couldn't get it to do anything.
The best advice I have at this time is to back up your work on your iOS device by regularly saving it to iTunes, if anything goes wrong you can then either load it into the numbers app again on the device or recover it via iTunes on your computer.
My syncs are immediate, I never get chance to see if it works in the background, sorry. -
Why I'm lost my Bookmarks Bar when I upgrade my mobile me to icloud? How can I get it back to my iMac, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPad, iPad2?
last thing you can try would be go to settings, general, settings, reset all settings
if that does not work, a factory restore will be needed... -
Help
I need any help i can get, im having trouble with the app find my iphone. I have lost my iphone, checked on the computer, and somehow, took it away so how do i get it back??If you are saying that after signing into iCloud it is telling you device is not found, it could be for any number of reasons. If the battery is dead, if the SIM has been removed, or if someone else has the phone and they have restored it, it will not be shown. Also, if you located it once and then sent a remote wipe, it disables the abililty to locate the phone with Find My iPhone.

Hi. I clicked some snaps from my iphone and post that without copying it i restored the iphone with all apps etc available from the backup taken. How do i get back the photos which were clicked earlier. Is there a way to get it back?? Please help
Yes i had not taken back up before restoring it. However i was just going through some links on the net and there is a software available for MAC to retrieve such lost data. But the point is will the said software work on iphone as the OS is not MAC..
Will have to give a try to this. If successful will share it with all. Anyone else has any idea about this please so share.
