My ipad is froze with the following message "Cannot Access my Friends" Open the app and review your information.  Unfortunately I cannot open/close or shut off my device ...

Has anyone run into this situtation?

I have the same problem on my iPhone4. It is obviously a bug in the software. Once it pops out I am locked out of my phone. I can't even begin to describe the frustration this causes. All that stuff about holding down the buttons is useless. the phone won't even shut off. I can take a screen shot like that or go to voice control. Even when I got to a wifi connection, I can't get on. This app blocks everything else. This is a serious bug and can have serious consequences. The only thing my phone would do is go to voice control and let me play iTunes or phone people. Some smart phone hey?
I have finally got to a place with a wide enough wifi to connect my computer and restore the phone. This has lasted over a day!
I don't even know why Find My Friends is on my phone. Is it part of the package and how do I turn it off?

  • TS2634 my husbands ipad is froze with the message that he needs to back up to his icloud account. We have tried to switch off and it wont let us and have now got it re-charging. Any ideas?

    My husbands ipad has froze with the message he needs to back up to his icloud account. He has tried switching off and on again to no avail as message is still there and is now trying to re-charge it. Any suggestions?

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Cannot Install Item / Please restart the app and download your purchase again

    I haven’t had this error message myself but one of my colleagues has, any ideas?
    Cannot Install Item
    Please restart the app and download your purchase again
    Three of our team (including me) have now been able to download the entire app after first archiving and starting afresh but the forth guy (the Editor in Chief) is still struggling with only half available. He has deleted the Content Viewer app and downloaded it again without being able to download more than half the app (560 MB total).We are 10 days away from our deadline so at a critical stage.

    We just had a customer complain that they couldn't sign-in or upate.  We tried it on our devices and were able to sign-in successfully.  Then we tried archiving and re-downloading the folio they were trying to download.  It did the start-stop thing with the download numbers but eventually finished without me doing anything.  Then when it got to the install part of the process it only progressed to a tiny sliver and then didn't progress any further for at least 15 minutes.  I then canceled, re-downloaded again and the install process got to about 40% before hanging indefinitely.  I quit the Adobe Content Viewer app, restarted it and tapped on "resume".  It took a couple of minutes but it did finish the install.  When viewing the folio, about 40% of the way into the articles one of them was completely gray.  Essentially it wasn't downloaded/installed correctly.  I'm wondering if this might have something to do with the screen going to sleep so I changed the timeout from 10 minutes to 30 minutes.  The download and installation were successful, so I have archived and am re-downloading again just to hopefully repeat the success.  The folio is 306MB, so it's not huge but not small either.  Lots of videos and multi-state objects are in this folio but it has been downloaded and viewed successfully many times before.  No changes have been made to this folio for at least a couple of weeks.
    I'm very disappointed that we aren't past the point of these things still happening.  It makes it very difficult for us to pitch tablet apps to new customers when simple things like delivery to the end user is so unpredictable and frustrating for both our customers and us.  I hope Adobe realizes that lack of reliability is going to stop many users like our company from being able to recommend their system to potential digital publishing customers.  There are lots of companies/potential customers that want tablet apps, however why should we try to court their business if the platform isn't reliable?  We end up looking like incompetent fools because the system we told them to invest in isn't able to perform basic functions reliably.  If Adobe wants to make money from us and our customers we need the standard/basic features of Adobe's digital publishing system to work every hour of every day.  Rare exceptions and problems will always happen with any technology (even utilities like electricity and city water aren't bulletproof), however the problems users are experiencing haven't been rare.  We were an early adopter starting with the pre-release program in the hopes that we could offer customers a great solution and be part of the beginning of another great Adobe solution.  Up to this point we've tried to be very understanding of early growing pains with the technology and have apologized to our customers for the lack of a fully functional system many times and so far they have been patient and understanding.  The patience and understanding from both us and our customers is beginning to wear very thin.

  • IOS Newsstand: Cannot install item please restart the app and download your purchase again.

    I'm struggling with iOS 8 Newsstand. I've downloaded the new issue of "Intelligent Life." The issue opens then crashes after one page turn. When I try to reopen the issue, I get an error message, "Cannot install item please restart the app and download your purchase again." I've deleted the app and reinstalled it but no change. I've tried to "Restore All Purchases" also to no avail. Advice?
    Other Newsstand titles work normally.
    Thank you.

    Hello hp12c,
    If you are still having crashing issues with the app, check against the article below to continue your troubleshooting. Check to see if magazine has been updated to be compatible with iOS 8. If you are still running into issues, you may need to contact the developer.

  • After opening an email of photos from my mom, the email app won't open. I've rebooted the iPad, I've closed the app and reopeneded it. When I open it I get the basic frame (reply button, delete, etc) but none of my accts show up.

    When I first opened the email, it took forever to open. Then the pics didn't show up as pics, but as a ton of some kind of code. Since then, the app will open with just the frame, no info in the frame, no email accts or anything. Then it closes automatically after a few seconds.
    I've closed the app and reopened it, rebooted the iPad, and gone online and deleted the email itself. But the app still won't open. Help, please!!

    Thank you. I tried the soft reboot again, and the home button has been working fine this whole time. I have tried deleting the email acct from the settings and the mail app still opens only empty frames. I have a screen shot of it, but don't know how to post it here to be able to show what exactly is happening.
    The mail app will open. I can see the area that usually shows the messages themselves. I can also see the area that usually displays all the accts. Both these areas are completely blank. The search bar is showing on the left hand side, and up on the top right, the download button, reply, delete and compose buttons are showing. At the very bottom left the refresh button is showing. The app sits like that for about 20 seconds and then automatically closes. None of the buttons are responsive. I cannot see any of the email accounts I have in the app (3, usually but 2 at the moment since deleting the acct that seemed to have caused this problem).
    I have force-stopped the app, shut down and restarted the iPad, and rebooted the iPad. None of these have helped.

  • HT1430 My Ipad is froze with the message  ...Not Enough Storage.... But I can not do anything.  It will not reset or anything.  What do I do now.

    iPad frozen with the message .. Not enough Storage.. This iPad can not be backed up because there is not enough iCloud storage available.  You can manage your storage in Settings. 
    I can not get out of this message to get to my settings.
    not able to Shur Down either.

    Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    If that works then you can manage your iCloud storage via Settings > iCloud

  • Someone gave me an ipad can I keep the apps and sync with my iTunes?

    Someone gave me an iPad 2 and I was wondering if I sync it with my computer is there a way to keep the apps that are currently on the iPad?

    You need to update to the latest iOS 5.1.1.
    See iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
    Tip - Disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

    Can you use an iTunes gift card to purchase things actually in an app? (Buy "coins" using the gift card?)

    No idea, but it seems like you should be able to. You can give it a try, but will have to figure out some way around the automatic 1-click ordering that the App Store now does by default.
    It certainly seems like something deserving of a feedback form submission, though ...

  • I have purchased a from within an app. I submit my password for the app, and then my Apple ID.  I then get the following messages "Regrant failure _ please log in with the same user that has bought this app"  and that is followed  by "cant conn with IT _

    I have purchased an item from within the app PocketBible on my iPad.  However when I try to download it I am asked for my app User Name and Password and then my Apple ID and password.  I give both of these.  I then get a message which says Regrant failure - Please log in with the same user that has bought the app.  That is then followed by  Pocket Bible Alert - cannot connect to iTunes Store.
    Anybody got any ideas, both what the 1st alert means and how I get round the problem please.

    I had the same problem. My wife had the PocketBible on her Ipad 2 and she transferred ownership to me. I had to delete the app and reinstall it from the App store(logged in with my apple ID) and its working without a problem. I do not get those error messages when I attempt to Buy/Upgrade or Add/Remove books.
