Mobile web app stopped working on iPhone 6

Hi All,
I have a mobile web site that works really well on iPhone 5, iPhone 5s (both running iOS 8) and also on my iPad (iOS 8 as well). However, the 'login' button does not work on the iPhone 6 (e.g. you click it and nothing happens). That exact same website works on the other platforms. This doesn't make sense to me because they are all iOS 8?
The website is written in AngularJS using BootStrap. I know there are some updates to the webview on iOS but surely it is the same across all platforms?
On a side note, the website does work on an iPhone 6 emulator via Browser Stack.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Gaj

I debugged this on the actual iPhone 6 that was having the problem and I saw that it was failing when the token returned by the server was being stored in session storage.
I called up Apple support and spent a fair bit of time on the phone with them. The page was working on other iPhone 6 devices but not this one. After trying a few different settings and confirming it was working on Chrome, the fantastic Apple support person asked me to see if the page was set to 'private'.
On the bottom right of the safari browser, you click an icon and you can set individual websites to 'private'. Unchecking this made the website work and I could store the token in session storage. It appears that my client accidentally set the website to 'private' and this was causing the issue.
Hopefully this will save someone else some time with a similar issue. Full credit to Apple support who spent over an hour to resolve this issue.

Health kit app stopped working on iphone 6

Has anyone elses app stopped working. It won't sync with jawbone or my fitness pal and it doesn't seem to keep the setting you add. I have tried rebooting but nothing works.

Itunes Match makes Music App stop working on iPhone 4

I've had iTunes Match for about a month and my iPhone 4 music app has been sluggish throughout. Today when I tried to play any music on the phone it refused, I can't play anything. I pick an album, press play and nothing happens - it just stays stuck on zero minutes of the song. So I've had to turn iTunes Match off. It's very disappointing.
I should add that I have a friend who has an iPhone 4S and he has no sluggishness problems, perhaps the iPhone 4 can't handle Match?

I've just discovered my Mac has accumulated 56 crash reports for the Music App this year! I have an iPhone 4 and the iTunes Match service makes the whole phone sluggish.
Did you ever find a solution?

Mobile hotspot app not working on Droid Charge

My mobile hotspot app stopped working today. When I click on the app the screen flashes for a second then nothing happens. I get the same result when going to settings, wireless network, mobile hotspot. It's like the link to the app is broken or the app is gone. I have removed the battery and restarted several times with no luck.
How do I reinstall the app or fix this?

WOW! I just changed the date to May and Boom hotspot works. Is that a joke? VZWsupport wrote me on twitter saying their top engineers have it listed as an open issue still.... I'm not a programer or developer by any means but you would think that if the hotspot works fine with the date changed wouldn't overriding or rewriting that part of the software be fairly easy for a big company like Verizon????

IPhone 4 Apps stop working after sync

Everytime I sync my I phone my downloaded apps will not open. I can correct this by downloading another App but that is a pain. I want to be able to sync my iPhone and not have my app stop working.

I've just noticed the 'more like this' section on the right with similar problems and it appears to be a common problem with iTunes not being authorised so I have now done that and hopefully it'll be fine now. I just opened iTunes then went to store-authorise this computer.

After installing version 5 upgrade to my Iphone 4 all the apps stopped working.

After installing version 5 upgrade to my Iphone 4 all the apps stopped working and I cannot reinstall them at the Appstore giving me a message that I have already purchased them. I can see all the apps, click on them, but none of them will open. How can I make them work again, since the Appstore will not allow me to reinstall the apps? The only apps that are working are the ones pre-installed by the upgrade.

Try downloading any free app using the App Store on the phone.

IOS4, apple-mobile-web-app-capable and client certificates

IOS4 (4.0 and 4.0.1) seems to have broken apple-mobile-web-app-capable. I have a webbapplication using client certificates to authenticate the user. This worked flawless on IOS3.x. However, after having upgraded my iPhone to IOS4, the application fails when started from the springboard with an error message telling a client certificate is required (I have one installed). When I start the application from within Safari it works OK. I tracked the error down to the following line in the HTML code:
<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes" />
When I remove this line, the application works again flawless when started from the springboard. However the native look and feel are gone. As soon as I add this line to the HTML, the application works when started from Safari, but fails when started from the springboard.
Does anyone have a glue or is this a bug on the apple-mobile-web-app-capable function of IOS4?

I have also experienced this problem on iOS 4.1. I want to authenticate access to a web-app using SSL client certificates but I get an error "Cannot Open ... requires a client certificate" when launching the app from the home screen. Very annoying!
Navigating to the page in Safafi prompts the user to choose which certificate to use and then loads the page successfully. Just as a side question, is there anyway to automatically associate a client certificate with a web site so that the user is never prompted to choose a certificate when accessing the site? I want an authentication process that is transparent to the user.

Google Maps web app not working??

I have not (for obvious reasons) bothered much with web apps since the original iPhone but given the current (and in my view, somewhat overblown) furore over Apple Maps, I thought I would put try out the Google Maps web app on my recently purchase iPhone 5. Weirdly, however, it doesn't work. The app itself loads but I am presented with a blank page and nothing happens when I click the target icon. This happens in both 3G and wifi. Location Services is on (and I am using O2 in the UK). Anyone got any ideas? I'm scratching my head over this.... Thanks in anticipation

Presumably you have already tried un-installing this application and re-installing prior to posting?

All third party apps stopped working (crash at launch)

Ok, so there's a BUNCH of people having the exact same problem as I do (search this forum or Google with the title of this post). And I'm posting this in iPad but it does happen on iPhone too. Summary :
Often after an iOS update (but not always) third party apps stop working. When started, they flash open and then just quit.
Apple built-in apps keep working fine.
NOTHING solves the problem : hard reboot (home+power until reboot), deinstall+reinstall one/all apps, restore the iPhone/iPad, buy a new (free) app from the store to "reset" software authorization, de/reauthorize computer, reset password from app store account, deinstall app and then reinstall using the iPad directly (not via iTunes), etc.
I have one iPhone 4 and one iPad with this issue.
Oddly enough, on the iPad, only apps that have recently been UPDATED crash. Apps that were present and left alone on the device keep working. On the iPhone, there was an iOS update so everthing was reinstalled and therefore doesn't work anymore.
Strangest thing : reset the device to make sure nithing is open in the background, launch an app, app crashes and returns to springboard, double click "home" and... tadaam, the crashed app is in the list of open apps. On the iPad, 4-finger slide does even go to that app's screen (which is pitch black).
As I said, 30 minutes of googling revealed at least 50 identical cases. All seem related to iOS 5.1. My iPhone rune iOS 5.1.1 (that was the upgrade) and my iPad runs iOS 5.1 and I'm NOT doing the update until I can solve this crazy thing.
Please, all, HELP !
Thanks in advance.

Please, Alan, I know my message might be a bit long, but do read it! I DID try that and absolutely everything else that was mentionned in the other posts about this subject. Nothing works. And it doesn't work for the others either, not just me.
The only thing I can think of right now is to put the iDevice in DFU then make a clean install and configure it as a new iThingy. This looses all stored data and config so it's a pain in the a... and I won't try it unless I'm pretty sure nothing else can be done. And I'm not entirely sre it'll work, either…

Reminders app stopped working

iPhone 5 (GSM) on iOS 8.3.
I noticed that my Reminders app wasn't syncing with iCloud via wifi or LTE, so I turned off/on the setting in iCloud. The app stopped working at all after that. When I open the app, nothing shows up at all, not even a default list. When I try to use Siri to remind me, Siri will say that the reminder cannot be made.
I tried restoring iOS then restoring the backup, same thing still happened.

Hello gotlactose,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPhone. If you continue to have issues with Reminders either launching or syncing, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

Several apps stopped working -- won't run

Macbook 2GHz 2GB
OSX 10.4.10
Hi all,
Today I've had several apps stop working -- meaning, when I run them, their icon will bounce a couple times and then disappear, and the program never runs.
Googling led me to try deleting pref files -- one program had a pref file, I deleted it but no difference. The other apps didn't have any pref files.
I've repaired disk permissions. I've uninstalled/reinstalled each program.
I've been using them with no problems until today. The Macbook did try a software update today, but kernel panicked in the middle of installing -- not sure if that could cause it. I've tried Software Update again but it finds nothing.
Any help will be VERY much appreciated. I've never had this happen before, and can't seem to find much about it.
Thank you!

Tutorial: What to do when a Mac OS X application will not launch
It’s a frustrating scenario: You click on a regularly used application only to find that it will not launch – either bouncing indefinitely in the Mac OS X Dock or simply providing no feedback whatsoever. There are a number of potential solutions for this problem, ranging from simple and relatively quick to more tedious.
Update prebinding Many cases of application launch-failure can be resolved easily by simply updating prebinding, via the following steps:
1. Log in as an administrator
2. Open the Terminal (located in Applications/Utilities)
3. Type: sudo update_prebinding -root / -force and press Return.
4. When prompted for a password, enter your admin password, and press Return again. The process may take a few minutes, and you may see various messages flash by. The process is complete when the Terminal returns to a normal prompt.
5. Type exit and press Return.
6. Check for the capability to launch the problematic application.
Kill process in activity monitor Killing an application-related process via Activity Monitor (click the item then press the 'Quit Process' button) can allow proper application launch. This is especially applicable in situations where a restart cures problems with application launching, as the offending process(es) will, of course, be killed by the restart process.
Launch Activity Monitor (located in Applications/Utilities), then find the process associated with the problematic application, then quit it and attempt re-launching the applications.
Delete appropriate .plist files A non-launching application can be the result of a corrupt or otherwise defunct associated .plist file (for more information on exactly what a .plist file is, see this series of articles)
Most of the preferences files that we will be talking about are stored in a folder named Preferences, and located in the Library folder of your home directory, e.g.:
* ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist.
Go to the ~/Library/Preferences folder, and search for any .plist files that may be associated with the application you are having trouble with. Drag the .plist file(s) [many applications have more than one associated .plist file, so be careful to scour for all of them] to the Desktop, then re-attempt launching the application.
You can also use an application like Preferential Treatment to check for corrupt .plist files.
Re-install the application Try re-installing your application from its original media or download source.
If an Apple application or component is not launching properly, you might need to restore it from the Apple installation discs per the instructions in our tutorial "Re-installing Apple applications from a Mac OS X disc/update package using Pacifist."
Clearing caches Try using a utility like Tiger Cache Cleaner, OnyX, or Cocktail to perform series of system cache deletion routines. Go from light, to medium to deep (the ordinal levels are defined differently in each application), checking to see if your afflicted application launches properly after each.
Also, check the following folder for application-specific cache files that can be deleted, or at least temporarily removed:
/Library/Application Support (look inside the folders here for files that end with .cache, and delete them)
Make sure permissions are correct A range of permissions issues can effect Mac OS X applications, causing them not to launch.
In these cases, the first thing to try is a disk permissions repair routine using Apple's Disk Utility (located in Applications/Utilities).
Failing that, startup from your Mac OS X installation disc (insert it, then restart while holding down the "C" key). After the startup process is complete, go to the "Utilities" menu and select Disk Utility. Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button.
In some odd cases (usually after a backup or when transferring backed up data back to a startup device), permissions on the "MacOS" directory (the directory that normally stores the executable binary in a Mac OS X application) can become incorrect.
In order to fix this problem, use the following steps:
1. Click on the afflicted application to select it in the Finder
2. Either click the application while holding the control key, or use the "Action" menu (the icon looks like a gear) to access the option "Show Package Contents"
3. Open the "Contents" folder therein, and then find the "MacOS" folder
4. Modify the permissions on this folder to give it "execute" permissions for all users. Do this by opening the Terminal (located in Applications/Utilities) and typing the following command (don't press return afterward):
5. sudo chmod 755
6. After typing this, drag the "MacOS" folder to the Terminal window -- its path should appear. Press return, and you will be prompted for your administrator password, which you should enter.
The "MacOS" directory should now have read, write and execute priveleges for the owner, and read and execute privileges for the group and others.
Check CoreAudio As noted in Knowledge Base article #301658, some Apple applications might not open fully or at all if the Digidesign Core Audio driver has been installed as part of a Pro Tools version 6.9 installation.
Apple says to follow these steps if you are affected by this issue:
* Updating your Digidesign Core Audio driver may resolve the issue. You can find the latest versions for Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther) and Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) at http://digidesign.com/download/coreaudio. If that doesn't help, continue to step 2.
* Open Audio MIDI Setup (/Applications/Utilities).
* Click the Audio Devices tab.
* From the Default Output pop-up menu, choose Built-in Audio.
Check for errant plug-ins Some application launch failures can be caused by problematic plug-ins or other add-ons. Safari and other Web browsers are notorious for suffering from this issue, as are some other extensible applications like iMovie.
Check the following locations for any recently added files, or any files implicated in error messages generated when you attempt to launch the problematic application:
* /Library/Internet Plug-ins
* ~/Library/InputManagers
Re-apply the Mac OS X combo updater Try re-applying the latest Mac OS X combo updater from Apple's software downloads page. Doing so can resolve issues with system components or delete specific files that can resolve application launching issues.
Create a new user account Try creating a new user account, and check if the application launches under it. If so, a user-specific corruption issue is likely at play -- see the above sections regarding .plist files and caches. See our tutorial "Common workaround -- create a new user account" for more information.
Archive and Install As a last resort, try performing an Archive and Install process, which will retain some user settings but otherwise leave you with a fresh Mac OS X installation.
Also, check with the application's developer for compatibility notes regarding the version of Mac OS X you are running, and revert to an earlier iteration if necessary.

Hi, I swapped from o2 to vodafone and my apps stopped working.

Hi - can anyone help please? I swapped from O2 to vodafone and all my apps stopped working. Tried deleting and re-downloading a couple and also tried downloading a brand new one - all would not work. Started to open and then immediately closed.
I Tried lots of things and eventually found a thread on here that advised de-authorizing and re-authorizing my pc. I did this and it worked to some extent as I can now download new apps and they work so this was obviously part of the problem.
However a lot of apps that I want wont download from the app store as I have a iphone 3g which only goes to 4.2.1 and they require higer OS now. I have a backup copy of my old apps (.ipa files) which will work on 4.2.1 and thought I would be able to load these back on. They seem to go in to itunes OK and they sync on to my phone but they will not run. Start to open and then close again (just like the original problem). I think it is something to do with being authorised by apple but don't know how to fix. I have always had the same apple id throughout and my iphone was unlocked properly by 02 so no funny business. Any ideas anyone? Many thanks.

ask your phone carrier.

Why do my apps stop working

Hi, can anyone help, I have only just got the iphone 4s and after 2 weeks of no trouble my apps stopped working today, i have tried the restart etc and am now running a restore, i am not overly technical so am doing what friends have suggested, but does anyone know why this is happening? if i touch an app it looks like its going to load but then straight away goes back to the home screen. any help would be appreciated.

i tried that too and deleted all the recent ones, i then downloaded a new one which oddly fixed the problem for a while but now the problem has returned, deleted the app i downloaded but nothing works again now.

Sent so large of a message that my messages app stopped working.

I found the fix for this. This error is caused by sending so many text in a message that your messaging app stops working.
I'm on IOS 6.0.2 iPhone 5 Verizon. The fix is go to phone app and then click on a contact then click send a message then click cancel and return to threads and then delete thread that messed up messaging app.

This needs fixed by apple because it can be used as a spam tool. The person I sent the text to they also could not use their messaging app until I showed them the fix. They have an iPhone 4. So if you send this as a group message you could spam a ton of people's phones. This is a dangerous bug.
