Messages App Frozen/Exiting Early. How can I reset it?
When I tap the messages icon, a gray screen loads for about 5 seconds and then the program exits out to the home screen. I still receive text notifications but I can't read incoming text. Or if I slide the banner to read the content of the message, I am taken to the message and it is frozen and exits within 5 seconds. Is there anyway to reset the message app to get it working again?
I have shut off and restarted the phone using the lock screen key.
I have reset the phone using the lock screen key plus home key.
I have tried closing the app by holding the home key for longer than 2 seconds, waited for the message icon to wiggle and exit it.
The app still appears to be frozen.
This same question has been posed across several threads today- did you see a message for Microsoft Software for $10? Is your experience similiar to the one detailed in "Can't access messaging inbox whatsoever after suspicious text message I didn't even open."?

I have 2 games Words with Friends and Cityville that receives a Pop-up message form iTunes... "Connect to iTunes to use Push Notifications" and will not allow me to exit out of the app or play. How can I get this message to STOP?
Yes - I connected my phone to my computer / Itunes and went into the apps section, but from there I have no idea how to manage the push notifications. I even tryied going into itunes that is installed on my phone. I still cannot find anyplace to manage these popups. I have also gone into settings - notifiations - and tried turning all notifications for these apps all off but that didnt work either. Any guidance is MUCH appreciated - Im not sure where to go from here.

Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac". Write down what it says about "version"and report that here. Now continue to "More Info..." Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).
If you have a PPC Mac you cannot sync your idevice without a newer computer. See the end of this post for options.
If it says you have an Intel Mac you can upgrade to Snow Leopard, but check system requirements first:
Snow Leopard 10.6 Technical Requirements - http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
You can buy Snow Leopard at:
Snow Leopard disc source - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
After installing run the updater to 10.6.8, then upgrade iTunes.
Jan. 2014 post by Kappy on doing all this: https://discussions.apple.com/message/24599931
Options if you cannot upgrade: iTunes Store purchases can already be downloaded directly. Use iTunes Match to put non-Store music in iCloud, then download to your device from there. Backup your device directly to iCloud over a wireless connection. Photos can be downloaded from the Camera Roll using iPhoto or Image Capture. -

I turned off my phone and when I turned it back on, all my apps were deleted. I tried to reinstall my apps, but it wouldn't let me. My storage still remained the same even though, all my apps were deleted. How can I get my apps back?
Hold the home and power button down until your phone restarts. If that doesn't work, backup and restore using iTunes.

I downloaded and paid for an app on my ipad, how can I get it free on my iphone without using itunes as my laytop is broken. I cannot seem to find the purchase tab in app store? I am logged in using the same ID
First, the app must be universal...designed for both iPhone/iPad:
Tap App Store.
Make sure you're signed in with the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
Tap Updates.
Tap Purchased on the resulting screen.
Locate the app in your Purchased tab.
Tap the download icon.
The app will begin downloading and you'll be taken back to your home screen. -
How can i reset my app store setting?
I have signed in and out with my own apple id but i used a different one at first a few years ago and that one is not going away how do i change it to my own apple id?Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID. Your only option is to delete the content and buy it again with the new Apple ID. -
I am very confused. When I wanna to update my apps in app store, it shows the account which is my iPhone one is not my iPad one. how can I reset to my iPad account?
And I am very confused by your query. Your iTunes account is the same on all devices - unless of course you have multiple accounts to begin with.
If you do have another Apple ID that you use for the iPad purchases, you can sign out of the account that is on the iPad in Settings>Store.
Perhaps a few more details from you could clear up the confusion??? -

Updated to iOS 7, but only the first page of my app buttons stayed. How can I get them back?
I just updated to iOS 7, but only the first page of my app buttons stayed. How can I get them back? And how do I show the Apple Music and Weather app- I can find them in spotlight, but there isn't an app button for them.
Are you sure you don't see them when you swipe to the left?
I actually had only one icon showing on the second page .... and then all of the rest showed up on pages 3, 4, etc.
The Apple Music app is a red box with a white note
Weather app is a blue box with a white cloud and yellow sun
Did you try resetting or restarting the device? -
I connected my ipad to my computer to sync my photos and it deleted all my apps, they synced back on to my ipad but all my Noteshelf apps items were deleted, how can I get these back?
What do you mean " back up my photos or Apps"?
The photo sync is one way - computer to ipad.
You can transfer itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one. -
I've received an error messagae that says my message can't be sent. Unfortunately, the recipient list is so long I can't see the bottom of the error message to click "Try again" or another option. The message won't scroll. How can I get to the bottom of the message?
Many Thanks, Kurt.
I knew I'd seen the solution you've provided somewhere - either in MacWorld or MacFormat - but couldn't remember the Gatekeeper bit!
I shall save it somewhere VERY safe now in case this happens again …
You have made an old man very happy and saved me from worrying that senile decay had suddenly set in. (I was 70 last week so you might understand the situation from that.)
Best wishes

I delete my camara app on my 4s how can i get it back
i delete my camara app on my 4s how can i get it back i delete it from da home screen bt when serch it i can c it bt i wants da app on my hm screen
You cannot delete the camera app, it is a native app to the iOS. It may have been moved to another screen accidentally, or you could have restrictions on, and that would make the camera app unavailable. Check your other home screens, or you can go into Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout and that will bring the native apps back. To check and see if you have restrictions on, go to Settings>General>Restrictions. If they are on, they need to be turned off, but you will need whatever password you used to turn them on. A simple reset of the iPhone might also bring it back, do that by holding down the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After iPhone restarts, check.

How can I reset my security questions so I can buy an app?
How can I reset my security question so I van buy an app because I am using for the first time my credit card to buy an app and I can't remember some answears .I have made my Apple id 2 years
AgoYou need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
