My iMessage will not work after upgrading to iOS 8

I have tried everything and cannot get iMessage to work since i upgraded to iOS 8

go to settings, general, reset, reset all settings. this causes the phone to reset and finishes installing certain iOS 8 features in iMessage like self destruct, etc. and should fix any glitches you're having.

iMessage does not work after upgrade to iOS 8.1.3 on my iPad 4

I Fixed it by trying to sign in with a different ID and canceling when it asked For a password and then signed in with my ID and it works! No more error message. I got this idea from another discussion. Thank you for replying though.

TS2755 Group iMessage is not working after upgrading to ios 7.

When creating a group chat using iMessage with ios 7 or 7.0.2 When you send a message each person gets the text as an individual text and when they reply back it comes back as an individual text not in the group chat as it did in the previous ios versions before 7.0.

What this means is simply, at least one person in the group chat's iMessages isn't working, or hasn't activated. When this happens the message (depending on your settings) sends as an SMS instead, hence for the recipient it looks like it was sent from only one person and not s part of a group.
You need to check through each recipient, add them one by one to an iMessage group (or send them individual messages), and if it turns green when you've added someone then their iMessages isn't currenlty working.
The upgrade to iOS7 has broken iMessags connection/activation for some users. There are ways to try to fix it by switching iMessages on and off, or resetting your network settings. Often these work, and sometimes it takes a day to activate. Apple have just announced that they are working on a fix for this right now.

Facetime will not work after upgrade to io6 can anybody advise?

Facetime will not connect after upgrade to IO6 can anyone advise?

Hey there,
Maybe start here
[Troubleshooting Automatic Software Update in Mac OS X|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1569].
Otherwise, try deleting this file. com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist located at /Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Drag that .plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash, empty the Trash and restart your Mac.
Have you tried resetting your widgets by hitting Command-R? If that doesn't, work trying trashing the two dashboard preference files.
The two dashboard preference files are in the following directory:
yourusername -> Library -> Preferences ->
The file names are:
com.apple.dashboard.client.plist
com.apple.dashboard.plist
Hope this helps.

IPhone Home Button not working after upgrade to ios 5.1.1

Hey everyone,
I'm pretty sure this is a software failure due to the symtoms the iPhone is showing;
0 - the home button does not work at all when the phone is turned on and running ios 5.1.1, well it used to work okay when i had ios 5.0.1, I upgraded to 5.1.0 and started working randomly, upgraded to 5.1.1 to see if it was fixed with no luck at all.
1 - When locked the screen does sometime light up, like when you press the home button and don't slide the unlock button. but it does not exit apps anytime, I mean it doesn't act like it's pressing the home button randomly but only when the phone is locked.
2- The button does work perfectly when iOS is not running: I can get in and get out of recovery and dfu mode at will, that wouldn't be possible if the button were broke.
3- what else? Oh yea, not really a symtom: Tried the 'home button calibration' several times.
4 - It's not filthy, since I really cleaned it thoroughly with a powerful tiny nozed air blower I got and gave a rubbing alcohol treatment too.
5 - when I shut the phone down it instantly turns back on, I can interrupt the turning on for turning the phone into dfu mode (i'm sure It's in DFU mode because the tinyumbrella log monitor tells me)
I'm now using the 'soft' home button that goes in the accesibility options, but hey, I didn't pay a ton of money for a phone that the same Apple is gonna break down.
It's out of warranty and I don't have apple stores where I live.
I'd downgrade to 5.0.1 in a snap if I could but I'm not into jailbreaking, so the shsh blob thingie is not a possibility.
Any apple dev around that can give me a workaround?
thanks a lot in advance

I had the same problem with Home button not responding after upgrading from iOS 5.1 to iOS 5.1.1 on an iPhone4.   I solved it but not sure exactly what fixed it.   Here is what I did.
1. Took it local Apple store Genius appointment.   They used a special tool and took some lint out of the connector opening.   The Home button started working.   They said even though the phone was out of warranty, I could buy a new replacement one without a contract for $150.
2.   The Home button stopped working when I got home.   I got some compressed air in a can and blew the air through the connector to try and clean out more dust.   I now keep the phone with the connector opening facing down in my pocket.   I also struck the phone downward on my hand or other soft surface to force as much dust out as possible.
3. The Home button still was intermittent. I then tried to do a hard reset by holding the power on key and the Home button simultaneously for about 10 seconds. This doesn't work if the Home button doesn't respond.
4. I connected the iphone to Itunes via the USB to sync the phone. While connected, I did a Hard Reset by Holding the Power button and Home button simultaneously. I noticed the Home button responded better when connected to ITUNES via the USB.
5. I did a backup of the iphone4 by highlighting the iphone 4 while connected to ITunes and right mouse click and selecting BACKUP.    I was prepared to reset my phone4 in iTUNES and restore it from the backup.
The phone worked consistently before I had to do this.
6. As a last resort which I didn't need to do, I was going to copy all my settings for the iphone by selecting the phone in iTUNES and looking at all the sync settings.   I would then have restored the iphone to original factory settings and then sync the phone using the copied settings. This would have made sure that the backup didn't include the bug.
Fortunately, I didn't have to do step 5 and 6.   Things started working after Step 4. So I don't really know if it was the iOS 5.1.1 upgrade or pure coincidence that the Home button stopped working immediately after the upgrade.

My HP LaserJet 1536 Scanner will not work after upgrading to Windows 10

I just upgraded to Windows 10, and now the scanner will not work, although I can still print. I downloaded the latest driver, but this does not seem to help. The error message I get states that scanner communication cannot be established. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks!

Greetings , I saw your post regarding the problems you are having with scanning after upgrading to windows 10.
I would start with the simple, have you tried just restarting the computer? Have you made sure your computer has all of it's windows updates? How can I tell if my computer is up to date? Most products do have updated software available for Windows 10, did you install the correct driver?HP LaserJet Full Feature Software and Driver I've also seen a few posts that say the Windows 8.1 driver will work for Windows 10 as well, so you could try that too.  HP provides a free tool called HP Print and Scan Doctor to diagnose and resolve printing and scanning problems. I recommend downloading and running the HP Print and Scan Doctor, if it doesn't fix it automatically let me know what errors or messages you receive.  Do you know if you are able to scan using Paint? To Scan from Paint: HP Multifunction Printers - How to Scan: Windows 8
(It's the same for Windows 10, from what I've been told)Right-click the Start button () in the lower left corner of the screen, click Search, and then type ...Click Paint in the results.Click File, and then click From scanner or camera.Select your printer, click OK, and then click Scan.  Have you tried just using the New Scanner app in Windows 10? It's the same as the one for Windows 8. Here are some resources;New Scanner app in Windows 10Scan app for Windows: FAQ
And a Video link...    Please let me know if any of these steps resolved your issue, or if there is anything else I can do to help.  I look forward to hearing from you!  Thanks,

Hdmi adapter not working after upgrade to iOS 8

My Hdmi adapter (orig. Apple) is not working anymore after upgrade to iOS 8, is there any solution.

The IOS 8 update has nothing to do with the failure of the device. I have a HDMI adapter and it has worked fine through IOS 6, IOS 7 and IOS 8.
You may want to restart your device by holding the home and power button until the Apple logo appears. If the adapter still fails to work you need to determine if the adapter has failed or the port on your device has failed. Best solution is to go to the Apple store with the device and the adapter. If your adapter has failed it may be under warranty if you still have the sales receipt. If the port on your device is bad then the Apple store will be able to provide you with options.

IPhone Bluetooth not working after upgrading to iOS 6.1.2

I used to pair my iPhone with my Blue&Me system in my Fiat Car and it was working perfectly hitherto. Recently I have been experiencing problems with Pairing my phone with my car Bluetooth system (Which I sometimes use for receiving calls).. The phone though identifies the car system in the discovery mode but is not able to pair and establish connection. My car Bluetooth system is working just fine with other phones. Request apple / or anyone who can help to help me overcome this issue. My car system is as important to me as iPhone and if this problem persists, i may be forced to change my phone.

In the 4+ years of using iPhone and several other apple products, this is the first time that I am feeling frustrated with my iPhone 4S and Apple. I am surprised that so many people around the world are facing the problem with their blue tooth devices after upgrading the iOS and still there is no hope of having this situation resolved. The cause of breakage of communication between iPhone (my investment, my ownership) and other devices is of apple origin and apple can't walk away by suggesting that the other party should upgrade the Bluetooth Firmware.
In my case, My iPhone 4S stopped paring with My Fiat car blue&me system after updating to iOS 6.1.2. The problem has not been solved in iOS 6.1.3.
If this problem is not solved in next update the ovious solution is to move to android as I can change my phone but I can't change my car that eaisly.

Some Of My Apps Do Not Work After Upgrading To iOS 4 And Fluctuating Wi-Fi

After upgrading to iOS 4 on my 8GB iPod Touch, some of my audio apps do not work. CBS Radio just crashes, ESPN Radio stays on the "Station ESPN Radio data loaded" screen, and the iRadioSuite stays on "Connecting". Sirius/XM Online, iheart radio, Radio, and WunderRadio appear to work correctly. Also, I always had three bars for wi-fi signal strength on my home network before the upgrade. Now I get fluctuating levels that at times go down to two bars and even one bar. Needless to say, this is very frustrating!

I also updated the iPhone 3G yesterday to iOS 4. I just turned on wi-fi on the iPhone. CBS Radio crashed on the iPhone but I got a steady three bar wi-fi signal strength level as I moved around the condo so this must be an 8GB iPod Touch and iOS 4 interface issue.

Kodak printer will not work after upgrading to Yosemite.. Please Help

I have uninstalled and re installed my kodak 5250 more than once and it still does not work. I have carried out a clean install of my Yosemite OS and still no joy. How do i fix this?

I've got the 7250 as well -- same exact issue. I sent an e-mail to Kodak support on Friday last week -- haven't heard anything, but they did ask for 2 business days time to respond.
I've been running the Yosemite Beta on one of my machines for a few months now and my printer stopped working on that one after the upgrade. I kept Mavericks on my other Mac until this weekend, and printing still worked from that machine until I upgraded to Yosemite over the weekend.
I've got Linux and Windows virtual machines that can print to the ESP 7250, so I can still print, albeit with the hassle of firing up a VM and printing from there... I sure hope Kodak responds! I offered to help them test any beta-quality drivers they may have, so -- we'll see what they say!
I've been planning to ditch the printer and get a new one, but I'd rather not have to do it right this minute just for a driver issue :-/

Gmail POP will not work after upgrade to Leopard (Mail 3.5)

Hi,
I recently upgraded to Leopard and was previoulsy using Gmail for my POP service, whuch worked fine.
I was a little disappointed that the upgrade disabled by HTTP app that allowed me to access my Hotmail, but no big.
The big deal here is tht I have tried everything listed on Gmail's troubleshooting page for POP accounts and I can't get Mail to connect to the smtp nor pop server. I tried deleting recreting the account, verified settings with what's listed, opening the firewall, testing the telnet connection (nothiing happened, so I guess that's good?).
I sent this issue to Gmail but all I got back was a redirect to the Troubleshooting page and an .exe tool that I can't use.
Anyone else out there that may have this problem or have a clue as to what I could be missing?
I was also loged in to Gmail while setting up account so I know I can access the mail outside of POP.
Thanks for reading!!!

After spending a couple of hours researching this the solution that worked perfectly for me was to delete all plist files.
1. Start with Finder/Macintosh HD/Mail/ look for the plist file there and delete it.
2. Go back to Finder, ctrl click and select Go to Folder
3. paste this: ~/Library/Mail/
4. Find all plist files and delete.
If you feel more comfortable, you may save them someplace as a backup.
After deleting all plist files related to Mail, restart your PC. If you don't it may not work.
Either prior to doing this or after, be sure your settings are correct for gmail.
Once I did this, all of my incoming and outgoing messages loaded properly and everything worked perfectly.
If you need additional assistance feel free to leave a message.

Time machine will not work after upgrade

Since I upgraded to Mavericks on Oct. 22, Time Machine will not run properly, or at all for that matter. It tells me that it is 'Preparing Backup', but it was said that for over 4 days now. Suggestions?

I had a strange issue with Time Machine and Mavericks. Time machine wouldn't recognise the external USB drive I was using for backups. There was nothing in the logs, no errors, the time for the backup would come along and then it would skip to the next hour with no backup being done. What I was doing was removing the drive from Time Machine Preferences and re-adding it, TM would then start a manual backup and from that point it would run fine.
I ended up doing a Disc Verify on the drive (all ok, no issues) and shut the machine down. Today I booted up and staright away the TM Icon for the drive is correct and the TM is running as it used to.
I have three macs, all with external USB drives, the other two macs have no issues with TM, only my main one. Having a look at other issues, my external drive is a Western Digital unit so maybe that has something to do with it, though it can see the drive fine from Finder.
Anyway, if you are having similar issues, just run the Disc Verify Utility (and repair if there are errors) and hopefully it'll fix up that particular issue.

Voice dial not working after upgrading to iOS 5

After I upgraded my iPhone 4's operating system to iOS 5, voice dial is not working any more. When I press and hold the home button, voice control is enabled but only music-realted features (such as play, pause, etc) and "what time it is" work. The "dial XXX" and "call NAME" option don't work any more, and in the blue screen that is shown for voice control, I don't see the word "dial" appearing any more.
My friend who has iPhone 3GS upgraded and she doesn't have this problem.
Do I have this problem because I made a mistake during upgrade?
Is there some place where you can specifically disable/enable voice dial?
Or, is it Apple who disabled this feature, to temp iPhone 4 users to upgrade to iPhone 4S to have that feature back?

No, because I don't even know how to do that. I just restored the phone to one of the previous backups I had, using iTunes. The OS was unchanged (iOS 5) but the functionality was restored.
In this process, I lost all my applications, but my notes, contacts, etc were untouched (see below). As for apps, all I had to do was to look at the list of my apps in iTunes, and reinstall them.
If you want to do the same thing, note that you may lose your contacts or notes if you simply restore an old backup. Before you do so, enable iCloud and make sure your contacts and notes (and other important things) are backed up in iCloud. Then, after restoring your phone, enable iCloud again and it will fetch all the contacts, notes, etc that you might have added after that backup you just restored.

HT4972 wifi not working after upgrade to iOS 5.1.1

Upgraded to iOS 5.1.1 and wifi is not being recognised. In the settings>General> wifi is greyed out and says no wifi. I know it is nothing to do with my home network as no other network in the area is showing up either. Other than restoring is there any other 'fix'. I have seen similar complaints from others. Is apple doing anything about it? Grateful for any solution, it is driving me crazy.

Internet conection (3G) not working after upgrading to iOS 6.0.1

After upgrading my iPhone 3GS to iOS 6.0.1 my internet connection stopped working, not even the 'edge' signal is working. Can I downgrade to iOS 6.0 in iTunes? If I restore the iPhone in iTunes it will go to the older version of iOS (factory default)?

We're all users like yourself.
If you want to talk to someone at Apple, go to an Apple store or call 800-My-Apple.
Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?
What about basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide which is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new)?
Consider 6.0.1 has been out for several weeks, it's highly unlikely the issue is with 6.0.1 and more likely it is the device, the SIM, the carrier, or the network.
