My iphone 4S screen keeps freezing after the iOS6 upgrade. Can I roll back

Can't stand these glitches anymore. Browsing on my iphone has now become irritating to say the least. Sometimes when I an typing, there is a lagged response. Its such a turn-off!

No, you can't roll back. But you can probably fix the issue you are having with iOS 6 with a little searching the forum and support articles.

My Droid Razr M home screen keeps crashing after the update. Can it be reversed?

My Droid RAZR M is now a paperweight. The home screen keeps crashing. I'm forced to access anything by sliding down the main screen and going to the new settings area, which I discovered. I tried forcing the app to stop, but that didn't do anything. I cleared the cache, disabled it - nothing. I HATE THIS! I want to make it go away. Is there anything short of resetting the phone that can UN-update the update?
Oh, and also, now my texts are Google talk - ugh. double ugh.
Frustrated here.

Not even factory reset will roll back the update. My issue was a loss of the ability to connect to WiFi anytime after about 20 minutes after reboot.
The only thing I can suggest is to call tech support and let them walk you through a couple of routines and then they can send out a replacement phone. (It's what I had to do.) My issue is that the replacement is running 4.1.2 and now my FitBit won't work with it. I wish I did not upgrade from 4.2. (Maybe another release?)

Hi, I hope someone can help.... When I open a new user account, which I want to set parental control on, the screen keeps freezing once the account is open. The wee rainbow circle appears and I can't do anything. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
Report any errors it found for Disk Repair, don't need the ones for Permissions Repair.
Try it again & see if anything changed, but have Activity Monitor open & Show All Processes & sorted on CPU%, also have Console open if we can... maybe not when switching, but we'll see.
Does this happen if you just try to create a new admin user???

Why is safari freezing after the mavericks upgrade?

My safari keeps freezing after upgrading to Mavericks yesterday. Everytime I try to go back using 'two-finger swipe', the page freezes and I can't use the cursor to go up or down, select any links on the page etc. Anyone else experiencing any issues like this? If so, what did you do to fix it?

UPDATE to my Oct 31 post:
Within hours of my original post, I walked out of my office and dropped my macbook pro onto the parking lot asphalt. When I checked it, the screen wouldn't come on. (Maybe I shouldn't have complained about Mavericks!)
I ended up traveling 120 miles to an Apple store, where they not only repaired my screen for free, but looked at why it was running slow under Mavericks. They pointed out that I was running Sophos anti-virus for Mac and that it was no longer compatible with Mavericks. With my consent, they took it off and assured me there is no need for anti-virus software at all. I now have all my original speed and response back.
My MBP was a few months out of warranty, so I am very impressed that Apple fixed it without charging me anything, and then went on to make suggestions about how to improve its performance.

Safari keeps freezing after the 5.1.4 update

Safari keeps freezing up after the 5.1.4 update. I have no extensions. I also tried using firefox and it too freezes so it might not just be a safari problem.

I'm convinced that something is possibly broken in Safari 5.1.4. It's the first Safari update that has actually forced me back into using Google Chrome. I've had intermittent beach balls and system wide stalls since moving to 10.7.3 (including Safari 5.1.4). Removed every extension in Safari without avail. Activity Monitor and Console never conclusively pinned down the culprit. I finally moved back to Chrome, and my system is working again as intended.

My iphone 4 screen keeps freezing and i keep trying to reset it and still freezes alot. Can i replace it to apple store i still have 30 days warranty?

Iphone 4 keeps freezing even a lot of times resetting it...

If you still have warranty, yes you should be able to replace it. My ipad mini speakers had a rattle to it, and they just gave me a new ipad on the spot.

Wifi Dropping after the IOS6 upgrade to the iPhone 4S? What's going on?

My wifi keeps dropping at certain locations now with the iOS6 For my iPhone 4S. What is going on? Can this be fixed?

See https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/829034#answer-192433
If the steps mentioned there don't have any effect, please do the following:
* In the location bar, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter. 
* In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL''' 
* Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q=

* Click the orange Firefox button and go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''General''' (Firefox 4.0.x and above). 
* Go to '''Tools '''| '''Options '''| '''General''' (Previous version of Firefox). 
* Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu. 
* Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen.

My iphone 4s is terrible after the 0s6 upgrade, can I downgrade?

Everything was working fine with my 4s before the fateful day I accepted the upgrade to the new os6. Since then, not only does a fully charged battery only last a matter of hours but the phone "crashes" constantly. I'll fully charge my battery before bed and it's dead by the morning. I've turned off all systems I can, wifi, hotspot, etc. and can literally watch the battery drain with no use in front of my eyes. During a text, email, calendar entry, web search, you name it, the thing goes blank and then back to the home screen, loosing any work I'd been doing. This gets very frustrating when I have to retype every text 2-3 times and send in short bursts to make sure I don't loose the reply. I've rebooted many times and restored factory settings. I've synced to itunes and downloaded the update that way thinking there may have been a problem doing it wirelessly the first time. I've read some other problems with battery life but wonder if anyone else is experiencing these "crashes" and black screnes that reset to the home screen. I'm afraid to take it back into the Verizon dealer because of course, although I purchased the new phone just 5 months ago, my 30 day Verizon warranty is done and they didn't offer or sign me up to any Apple warranty, just tried to sell me a bullfrog plan that I couldn't afford. I'm afraid I'm out of luck with fixing this or getting a new phone, I just wish I could downgrade to what I had before. Of course, other friends are not having any problems at all, just my luck!

Unfortunately, you can't downgrade and will have to hope that Apple releases a patch soon to fix some of the bugs, although I upgraded with no problems at all.

The screen keeps freezing on the zoom function

before you respond with the most obvious response of going to 'Accessibility' and turning off the zoom function, please note that this is not an option for me as I am legally blind and rely on this function to use my ipad
i have noticed other people have had this problem before but i haven't come across a solution that really helps me so I'm asking again -
as mentioned I use the zoom function regularly, but recently the screen has started freezing when it's zoomed in and the only thing I can do is reset. It also seems to be lagging a little bit - hard to explain, but it doesmt just zoom waaaay in and stay there like other users have found (it does this on occasion) but it has also started freezing every now and then when I try to tap the zoom in or out
i have a 32G ipad 2 which is just over 2 years old...it still has plenty of space left on it and I update the software regularly.
Does anyone know of a glitch with the zoom that's causing this?
it only started happening a couple of months ago, and was tolerable while it was only happening once every couple of weeks or so but it is becoming more and more frequent - I have had to reset my iPad four times today alone.
thanks

You can try restoring the iOS software on your iPad:
Restore: Connect your device to iTunes on your computer, backup, and then select Restore to Factory.
See here for more details on restore: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201252

Does anyone else find their screen dims to almost black after the iOS6 upgrade?

Ever since the update to the new iOS, my phone's screen will almost black out, and then within a couple minutes the brightness will come back. Doesn't seem that anything I do in settings or otherwise helps get the brightness back. It has happened while I have been using an application, on the phone, etc .Sometimes it happens when not being touched. I know my settings are okay, and tech support can't figure out what to do next. They already traded my handset out and it is still doing it. I also did a restore as a new phone in case it was a software issue. If you are having trouble with this too, please call 800-APL-CARE and let them know. If enough people let them know, then they'll fix this glitch. Or if you know a fix for this glitch please let me know. Thanks

I have had the same problem with my Iphone 4s. I have restored it several times and the issues comes and goes. I can be on a call or just openning a app and the screen will go dim. The only way for the backlight to come back on is for me to hit the power button. Its very annoying and I have not took it to apple yet because It does not stay dim.

After doing the iOS 6 upgrade my iPhone has wifi connectivity problems, drops calls which it never did before doing the ios6 upgrade ,can't connect to safari most of the time, lost google maps, lost the YouTube app icon,

Can I reinstall the previous iOS , my iphone is now a POS because of the new IOS . My iPad no longer has the YouTube app?? And what happened to google maps? Galaxy 3 for me and a google tablet seems like a better option. Nice job apple!!!

I updated the video driver and now the screen won't come on? how can I roll back the driver when I can't see the screen?

I am running my Mac Book Pro with Bootcamp. Leopard on one partition and Windows 7 on the other. I updated the driver for the Nvidia video card then the screen went black. I tried to boot into the MAC side but the screen doesn't even show the optional boot screen. It does however sound like it's booting, I have tried hooking up a second monitor to see if it would show on that but it doesn't. I have also tried booting from the CD using the Win 7 disk, hoping that it would use the video driver on the disk instead. I'm either not doing it right (pressing ctrl & D whilst starting up) or that doesn't work either? I'm a bit lost? Don't know how to get to it.

Take your MBP to an Apple Store or an AASP. If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, suggest that you take advantage of it & call Apple tech support.

How can I recover a project that I optimized? It will not work after the fact. Can I go back in time without the "time machine?"

I'm freaking out here. Ok, so I've spent an entire school year filming and editing a video for an afterschool program I work for. I finally completed the project but was having errors every time I tried to export the movie. I was advised to optimize all the video clips before exporting the movie so it won't be as much of a load on my computer during the export process. I did that but now files are missing, all the audio and video clips are not lined up correctly, and it won't allow me to edit anything. Also, I can't even play back the video anymore. When I press play, I see nothing and hear audio from a completely different project in my library! I was told to check in the "iMovie Original Movies" in the "Movies" section of my computer to recover the original, unoptimized movie file. But nothing is there. Now I'm stuck with a movie I can't do anything with and all the students are depending on this video being completed. I do not have a "Time Machine" backup, which I'm regretting now more than ever right now. Does anyone have any suggestions that could help me??? I'm desperate.

All I can think of at the moment is to use the old standby of deleting the preference file. This can often fix problems with iMovie.
Go to your Home folder <your user name>/Library/Preferences (NOT the Library folder at the top level in Macintosh HD). Similar to Lion, on Mountain Lion (10.8.3), the Home Library folder will be hidden (unlike pre-Lion OS X versions). To access it, click and hold down Go in the Finder menu bar, then press and hold down the Option key on the keyboard - the Library folder will appear in the drop down list. Slide the pointer down to Library and, as you release the pointer, the folder will open in Finder. Now you can navigate to the Preferences folder.
In your user Library/Preferences folder, locate a file named "com.apple.iMovieApp.plist". With iMovie closed, drag this file to the Desktop. When next opened, iMovie will create a fresh preference file with the default settings (this happens in the background as iMovie is loading).
If iMovie now opens and appears to be working properly, you can change the default settings in the menu item "IMovie > Preferences", as desired. Also, it's now safe to drag the old preference file to the Trash. Trashing the file will not harm any existing Events or Projects.
Note that these instructions are for iMovie '11 (the latest version being 9.0.9). For users on earlier versions of iMovie, the preference file has a different but similar name. For example, for iMovie '09 (that's version 8.0.6) the file is named "com.apple.iMovie8.plist". Earlier versions may or may not have a number in the name, for example, "com.apple.iMovie.plist".

Screen Keeps Freezing & Sleep Wake issues

I have a 17" Macbook Pro and the screen keeps freezing. The computer doesnt freeze because when i depress the volume buttons i can still hear the beeps or when i hit F8 music from my itunes starts to play.
Also, 60% of the time when my computer goes to sleep I get a blank screen when i try to wake it. When this happens i have to close the screen for about 2 mins until the computer re-falls asleep. Once this happens I can then wake it up.
any ideas on the causes of these two issues?

Hello
> he told me that the laptop is pretty warm.
Probably this happens due a higher internal temperature
Did your friend already clean the notebook?
There is an interesting article here in forum about cleaning the cooling system of Toshiba notebooks:
