My iPhone 4s won't let me back it up to ICloud.
I Am trying to back up my IPhone 4s to ICloud but every time I try it says I do not have enough storage space, I have deleted most of my apps that are a lot of data but still no joy. All I want to do is make sure my photos and music are safe. Can anyone help me ?
Hey LuWatkins,
Here is an article that will help you troubleshoot this issue:
iCloud: Troubleshooting creating an iCloud backup
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3992
I can't back up because there's not enough storage available.
If your iCloud storage reaches its maximum capacity, you can take any of the following actions:
Purchase more storage.
Create a smaller backup. Tips for creating a smaller backup:
Select which apps to back up. Include only the apps that contain important data.
Reduce the size of your Camera Roll backup by deleting unwanted photos and videos before backing up. Optionally save the photos and videos to your computer before deleting them.
Turn off backup for Camera Roll, especially if you already back up your Camera Roll to your computer.(Your iCloud Photo Stream is not a backup of your Camera Roll.)
Delete old messages from your device, especially messages with attachments. To delete a message, swipe over it, then tap Delete.
Delete items that you no longer need from iCloud, optionally saving them to your computer before deleting them. For example, you can:
Delete old backups, such as backups for devices you no longer have.
Delete app data or documents.
Delete old email messages, especially messages with attachments.
Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Braden

My iPhone 5 won't let me use my apps until I connect them with iTunes after downloading ios7. There's just a thing that pops up and says that in order to activate banners and push notifications I have to connect the app with iTunes. The thing won't go away no matter how many times I push ok, and it doesn't give me another option. Solutions?
Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck! -
I don't understand why the Iphone 5S won't let me delete artist, instead I have to delete each song. Does apple know how annoying that is? Espcially when every frickin song Glee has ever reease goes on my new phone. I already hate this phone and i just got it yesterday. I'm done with Apple, they need to get there **** together.
You purchased it originally, and so it remains. I have two albums which I now don't want. I called about it before I got my 5s and was told there was no way, because it was a purchase I made. When I got my 5s I was hoping I could get rid of them, but you can't. They don't want people's music to disappear and then want it back. It is frustrating, but they feel they are helping people.

I changed my apple ID, but it won't let me change the ID for icloud on my iPhone. How do I change it?
You have to go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated credentials. This deletes the account and your synced data from your phone, but not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing to a different account, your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.

On my home wireless network, the iphone 5 won't let me enter the IP address, subnet mask and router info. I was able to enter the DNS and Search Domains. How do I open up those fields?
Apparently the router is not sending the info to the iphone. How can I make that happen?

It sounds like you may be having issues with a Wi-Fi connection. If you have determined that the issue is with your phone and not with the particular Wi-Fi hotspot you are using, then you will want to use the following article to help you troubleshoot this:

My iPhone 5s won't let me disable digit password in favor of finger print. Print is setup, how do I disable the pass? (Disable is greed out) it also requires it immediately and I want 15 mins.
And, if you use Touch ID, there is no option for a delay.

IPhone 4s won't let me turn on the Wi-Fi
iPhone 4S won't let me turn on Wi-Fi
Most likely your iPhone WiFi is faulty and no simple fix is possible. Settings App > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. If still problem, restore iPhone with iTunes on computer to see if you can get the WiFi working. If still problem after the Restore, and if there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send iPhone to Apple for resolution.
