My iphone 4 will not shift between formats, phone to email to text. Gets stuck. Why?

iPhone 4 gets stuck and won't return to home screen. Can't shift between programs from phone to email to text. I push the button to return to home screen over and over. Did get a message that I was runnning out of disc space. Could this be the problem? I purged a lot of photos that were on the camera roll but it still sticks. When I turn it off and back on, it will come up on home screen. But, I can't keep doing this everytime. What to do?

Hi there,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

Hello JinxUK,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with the iCloud Control Panel. I found an article referencing the error message you are getting:
“Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error.”
Apple is investigating this issue. This article will be updated as more information becomes available.

When i run keynote in the play mode, some times the computer get stuck, why?, when i run key note in the play mode, some times the computer get stuck, why?

hello,
I had the same issue. This is what I was told to do.
iWork has to be removed completely to be effective when re-installing, you must use an application removal tool to do this or it wont remove every Keynote file.
Appcleaner   will do this and its free.
The following procedure has helped solve many issues with Keynote:
1 Close Keynote then use Appcleaner
2 Empty the Trash
3 Shut down the Mac, then restart and press the shift key immediately after the startup sound, then release shift when the Apple logo appears
          allow the Mac to boot up to the desktop, it will take longer then usual as the hard drive is being repaired
4 restart the Mac
5 Reinstall iWork
6 Repair permissions:
          Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility > First Aid:   click on your system disc in the drive column
          and select Repair Disk Permissions
7 open Keynote and test

IPhone will not retain photo's & Phone freezing

Since updating to 3.1, my iPhone has decided that it can't transfer 20Mb of Photos when I have 180Mb of free space left.
Using Restore will make it so I can have my pictures on my phone again, but next time I sync my phone, I lose them again. I have restored the phone 4 times, and it still does it.
Also, when using the on screen slider to turn the phone on, I have had the phone lock up on me twice.
Are these problems related to the new software, do you think? I've never had any real problems with my phone until the latest update, and its getting annoying.
Any help would be greatfully recieved.

Thank you so much for replying, I deleted the folder you mentioned, it synced, which is further than it got before, but when optimising the pictures it crashed again :(
Any further ideas?

Iphone will not show new message alert for email sent to subfolders

I have successfully synced my iphone with the exchange server so I am getting push email from entourage to my phone. However I have subfolders set up in entourage so that my email is organised. These subfolders are showing on my iphone. Although email sent to subfolders is pushed to the iphone (to the relevant subfolders), when the phone is on the home screen it does not show a new mail alert for those emails. It only shows a new mail alert for emails going to the main inbox. Obviously I need it to alert me if email is coming in to subfolders. Can anyone help with setting this up?

Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)

My iPhone will not allow me to open, receive or send texts. Once I open the messaging app, it turns white and closes. Help?

HELP! My phone won't let me text or call people. I can't open any messages or send messages. It freezes, the screen turns white and then closes.

Andrew, the troubleshooting basics are restart/reset/restore...have you tried any of these things?
The following kb may be uber-basic, but here it is anyway...

HT1414 my daughter has iphone 3gs and it required an update , so i connected the iphone to itunes for update and the iphone locked up, I had to reset back to factory settings and now the iphone will not activate , what can i do

My daughter has an iphone 3gs and it required an update. So i connected the iphone to itunes for the update and the iphone locked up . I had to reset the iphone back to factory settings and now the iphone will not activate , Please advise what i can do to get this working for her ?

Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
Where did you acquire this iPhone?
What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?

Sammyhunter lets get you back in action! Has there been any physical/water damage to the device? Try pressing and holding the home and power button together. Once the Apple symbol appears release both buttons. Keep us posted!

My iPhone will not allow me to use slide screen? i have powered down and restarted several times. still cannot acces my phone. help needed.

My iPhone will not allow me to use the slide feature. I have restarted the phone several times. any suggestions?

Try rebooting. Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPhone should restart. See if you can use it when it comes back up.

All of a sudden this morning my iphone will not send imessages from my phone number but only from my email address. When I go to the settings for my imessages to choose where they are coming from my phone number is greyed out....Is there a way to fix this

All of a sudden this morning my iphone will not send imessages from my phone....

Hi Chas869,
Hmm, that is strange that your phone number is greyed out. There are a few things that we can try. First would be to turn iMessages off, then back on. See if you are able to select your phone number. Then if that doesn't work, turn iMessages back off, then reset the network settings....settings>general>reset>reset network settings, this will reboot the phone. Don't worry, it won't delete anything from the phone, it simulates a battery pull. Once the device comes back on, then turn iMessages back on. Keep us posted if that works!

My iPhone will not send an iMessage. It sends everything as SMS. I have ensured that my Apple ID is signed in and that my phone number is enabled for use in both FaceTime and iMessage

I had the same problem. I went in and added my email address to iMessage and deleted the text to my friends that have iPhones and sent another to test it and it worked. Only thing is now my non iPhone friends don't receive my pic text. I had to turn off iMessage for it to work. Apple needs to fix this ASAP!

Same thing happened to me, nothing is working. I've updated everything, restarted everything, nothing seems to work.

Most likely the phone is locked to a carrier that you haven't tried yet.
