How do I stop an app from waiting? I have tried to reboot by holding the home key and power button to power down. Also, I have tried to sync the apps from my laptop with no success. Can you help? Thanks.

How do I stop an app from waiting? I have tried to reboot by holding the home key and power button to power down. The app is still grayed out and waiting so it cannot be deleted. Also, I have tried to sync the apps from my laptop and tried downloading new appswith no success. Can you help? Thanks

If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

I send out emails with proper grammar. People would reply returning my email and I would notice the grammar has changed and doesn't make sense. What's causing this problem?

Have you actually compared what you sent (in your Sent Mail Folder) with what is in the reply?
Note that Auto Correction can often change what you think that you are typing.
Are you sure that the return message has your original message intact and not edited by the recipient?
Bottom line: if the recipient does a simple reply to your message with the original message attached the system is not going to edit your message.

My iPad 1 has started reverting to the home screen at random intervals in all different applications. Cause and fix?

I have searched and cannot find a solution. I have reset device and done a factory wipe back to original specs. No change. It appears to be a potential operating system issue but I cannot find any fixes. Apple has nothing posted about this problem I can find. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again!

My iPhone 4S has crashed 7 times. I hold down the home key and on button to reboot. I tried a restore but has crashed once since. Do I have a faulty phone ?

My new iPhone 4S has crashed 7 times ie the screen does not come back on when I press the home key. I hold down the home key and on button to reboot and it always comes back. I tried a restore but it has crashed once since. Is this right ? Do I have a faulty phone ? Any suggestions ?

Does the screen come back on if you press the sleep/power button?
Have you tried powering down (hold sleep/power button and swipe red slider) then power back up? Power cycling sometimes will clear problems.
If neither works, and you can get to an Apple store, have the genius bar folks try it out...they are very good about replacement if faulty.

I have tried force quit- home screen and top button. iTunes is not recognizing phone when I plug into computer. help pls

FIRST charge with an Apple charger for at least 15 minutes. Then hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears. Hold for up to 30 seconds. If nothing happens the phone hardware has failed.

The green PHONE icon has dropped from the bottom of the home screen and isn't among the icons that I have installed. I can get to it by searching but how do I get it back on the bottom of the home screen?

HT4623 after the ios 7.0 update my iphone 4s and ipad keep switching in between the home screen and the apple loading screen, can anybody help?

Can anybody help with the above?
i.e
both my iphone 4s and ipad switch in between the home screen and the apple loading screen
Many thanks

I would connect each device to a power source, and then reset them by holding the power button and the home button until they turn off.
If it keeps happening, I would put the devices in recovery mode and restore them with iTunes.
This article will help with that if needed:

Hey linfrommi,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are having trouble locating some application after the update to iOS 7. To troubleshoot this issue, let’s reset the home screen layout of your iPhone, which should move all of your applications to the second “page”:

I have recently got a new replacement iPhone 4. Since I got this I have found that my data allowance is getting used up during the night while my phone is charging on the bedside table. How an I find out what is causing this and stop it happening? Some nights the usage is 150 meg!

You can not access the backup directly.
Did you restore your replacement from this backup?
If so then you already have everything in the backup on your device.
If not, you can wipe the device and restore from this backup:
Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings
What is it you are worried about losing that isn't already on your current device?

HT5858 i have an iPhone 4s, when I tried to use control center to skip songs ( or signs) or when my phone is locked, i double press the home screen, i also can't skip songs. what's going on?

I am having the same problem with my Iphone 4. After update the phone will not control audio from the control center (Friend with Iphone 4S is having same issue). Tried to reset phone and it started working "once". Next time I tried to use the control center it didn't work again. Their needs to be some kind of a fix for this?

My iPhone says that I don't have enough storage to update one of my apps so I went to delete stuff that I didn't need but every time I select what I want to delete my phone freezes, goes back to the home screen and doesn't delete anything.

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

IPhone automatically shuts down.

My iPhone is currently updated to 4.3.5 but i have this problem that when ever i use an app at battery percentage of below 80%, my iPhone will automatically shut down and display the no battery sign. But after about 5mins when i start my iphone again, it will be left with 50+% battery. This problem has already happened for almost 1 month but there seem to be nothing i could do to solve it, it is very annoying as i cannot do anything except to listen to music after my battery percentage drops below 80%. And that my iPhone charging time seems to be much slower, my mum takes the same time to charge her iPhone from 18% to 100% with me charging my iPhone from 75% to 100%, my battery percentage also decreases much faster than hers. Can anyone tell me what to do with my iPhone??

Howdy asem18,
This article provides troubleshooting tips that can help you resolve the issue with your iPhone 4 restarting unexpectedly upon start up.
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support

When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
