My iPhone 5 suddenly stopped opening the Apple Mail app. It had worked flawlessly for years, but just stopped. It worked on my iPad, and of course on the computer. What's going on, and how do I fix it? I've turned the phone on and off several times, soft reset several times. There was no change in any settings when this happened, nor any new apps were added. Thank you for any help you can give.

Does it not work either way? Sending and receiving? Did you check the settings and make sure that nothing has changed? If you can receive email, but not send it, check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

My iPhone has suddenly stopped working. It now says the battery is dying and to charge it. After charging it for over an hour, there is no change. The power won't come on, and I am left with a blank screen advising me to plug my phone into the charger.

Try different USB Cable, try different Charger. Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. If still problem and you have Warranty or AppleCare, make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, most likely it could be battery or charging port assembly that need replacement.

MY iPhone 5C suddenly stopped working. It wont connect to my Mac and repeatedly reboots from the apple Logo when plugged into the wall. Help!

MY iPhone 5C suddenly stopped working. It wont connect to my Mac and repeatedly reboots from the apple Logo when plugged into the wall.
There is no water damage or anything. I got that checked at the Apple store. I also have Apple Care + but didnt let them give me a new one yet because I have photos on this that I have no yet backed up that are very important. They are the last photos I have with my grandfather. Can anyone help me. Please!

If the phone shows the "connect to iTunes" screen, the data on the phone is most likely lost.
Connecting in recovery mode is your only chance to use the phone again, besides getting it serviced by Apple.

TS3899 My iPhone 4s suddenly stopped receiving incoming mail.

My iPhone 4s suddenly stopped receiving incoming mail. I am still able to send from my iPhone but not receive.My email is still coming through on the desktop, sending anbd receiving.

Thanks for the reply. The SMTP is the Outgoing , which is working. I cannot find the incoming settings though. Are there any? The settings were never changed by me, I think there has been a network change somewhere. AT&T or Apple. I have rebooted several times, and even did a restore. Same problem. The "checking email" and "last Updated xx/xx/xxxx" message at bottom of screen just constantly flashes on and off when I check email.
I can send email from my iPhone ok.

My iPhone 4S suddenly stopped synching with my Outlook after I downloaded latest updates. I get this message: iTunes unable to load provider data from Synch Services. Reconnect or try later. What to do?

My iPhone 4 suddenly stopped synching to my Outlook 2010. This may be a result of downloading the recent iPhone and iTunes updates. I get this message: "iTunes unable to load provider data from Sync Services. Reconnect or try later." Another message tells me to delete the back up data on my computer as it is corrupted. I cannot locate this back up data. What should I do?

got that once a reboot and it was fine again

IPhone 3GS suddenly stopped working with wifi in only one location

This is the situation. I have an iPhone 3GS and it the wifi suddenly stopped working at my house (just with the iPhone).
I have an Airport express (latest generation) and a time capsule (1st generation). All of my devices (except a PC laptop which isn't much of an issue, and the iPhone) cannot connect to it. The devices I have are as follows: Apple TV, iPod Touch, iPad 2, the "new" iPad, a macintosh computer.
However, when I move the Airport express to my work location, and plug it into the ethernet there, the iPhone works totally fine. It seems like the issue is just at my house. The Time Capsule works intermittently sometimes; random devices cannot connect to the network sometimes. The airport express seemed to fix this problem. I have read that this problem is related to the operating system "Lion" but the network was working fine for months and months after I have upgraded to lion. Sometimes both devices cease to work, and there is no internet to any devices in my home.
The network is password protected, so that removes the possibility of neighbors connecting to the network. The name of the network contains spaces and "symbols" which I have heard is an issue for PC's trying to connect to networks. Both my home and my workplace are on the same internet provider.
My questions are:
Why does the airport express work with the iPhone at my workplace and not at my house?
How many devices can a 1st gen Time Capsule handle at once?
If I buy an airport extreme, will it fix this issue?
How can I fix this?
I have restarted the device several times (both the iPhone and Time Capsule) and it still didn't fix anything.

Using the delete all content and settings option is not restoring the iPhone. Using the delete all content and settings option does exactly that - all content and settings are securely deleted except for the firmware, which is not a restore.
If you do this followed by re-installing an app via the iTunes sync process, the app settings and any data created and stored by the app will be lost. 3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app is not stored with the app on your iPhone and is not stored with the app or synced with the app in your iTunes library on your computer.
3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app is stored separately from the app on your iPhone and is included with your iPhone's backup which is updated as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
Restoring an iPhone with iTunes completely erases the iPhone first followed by the firmware being re-installed. After the firmware is re-installed, you are prompted to restore your iPhone from your iPhone's backup, which is the default selection. The other selection available is as a new iPhone. After either one, this must be followed by a sync with iTunes. If you restore from your iPhone's backup followed by re-installing an app that stores data you need to access, the data will be restored with the app. If you restore as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup followed by re-installng an app, the app settings and any data created and stored by the app will not be restored with the app since you didn't restore your iPhone from your iPhone's backup where this data is stored.
If you restore your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup with no change, you can follow this by restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup to recover the 3rd party app settings and the data created and stored by the app along with all other data included with your iPhone's backup.

My iPhone sound suddenly stopped working.

I have had my iPhone 4s for over a year with no problems other than the occasional slow down, etc. Just last night, the sound on my phone randomly stopped working. It will work for a few seconds then stop, and just keep doing it. Its my ringtone, text tone, keypad tone, music, and video apps. I've tried turning the phone on and off with no luck. I just want to know why my phone has suddenly started doing this when it was just working fine and how to fix it. Please help?

None of these methods worked, so I just took a very thin paintbrush and dampened it using a Clorox wipe. Then, I just wiggled it around in the charging port. The sound worked for like 3 seconds then it stopped again. So I continued to clean it and it worked! After I listened to my music for about 30 minutes until it stopped again. I just blew hard into the port and it started working again. I think the problem was that the phone thought it was docked into speakers because it was so dirty. I think I'm going to get an Otterbox so this doesn't happen again. I hope I helped.

3G on my iPhone 4 suddenly stopped working for my and my mom. Help?

My Mom and I have had iPhone 4s for almost a year. They are up to date. Yesterday and Today, however, the 3G no longer works. It has always worked up to this point. Does anybody have any ideas as to why or how to fix this? Thanks
Other Info:
-My Dad's iPhone is fine
-They are not Jailbroken
-The 3G worked up until yesterday
-We have not left the area for a while
-Other people we know with iPhones are not having any issues
Thanks

try a reset you won't lose any data. hold down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release. wait for the phone to boot back up. see if that helps.

IPhone 4S Suddenly Stopped Connecting to WiFi

My daughter's iPhone 4S suddenly dropped the connection to our Verizon wireless network (after being connected for over a week) and each time she tries to re-connect we see the message "Incorrect password".
There are two other iPhones, an iPad, and 3 computers still connected without a problem. I've tried every reset option on the phone and re-booted multiple times. Even setting up the iPhone as a "new iPhone" after resetting all settings didn't work. Still same "Incorrect passwprd" message.
At this point I'm thinking that I should send the iPhone back as a warranty fix.
Has anyone experienced the same problem? If so, were you able to correct it and can you share your solution?
Many thanks!

Hi ejd:
Thanks for posting your troubleshooting steps. The auto-configure option generally works fine, but occasionally, it will not configure Wi-Fi networks automatically. You can follow the troubleshooting steps here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398 There's a segment that shows how to manually configure the Wi-Fi connection called "If you're unable to locate or join a nearby Wi-Fi network.
Give those steps a try, and let us know your results. You may need to call your Internet provider for help on locating your Wi-Fi settings on your computer.

I purchased a free app from app store for iPhone 5 and it will not download; just gives me the little cloud with arrow pointing down. I have version 7.1.2 What do I do?

I purchased a free app from App Store for my iPhone 5s, iOS version 7.1.2. It will not download; just gives me the little cloud with arrow pointing down. What do I need to do to get the app to load?

Hello mjhardy,
After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing an error while downloading apps. You may want to consider restarting the device first, and then resetting if that does not work. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
How to restart
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
How to reset
You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities,

My iphone 5 suddenly stopped charging. It's not working on any of my charging devices or with the apple charger

Just yesterday my IPhone 5 stopped charging. It won't charge on any of my docks, nor from the computer or from the charger that comes with the phone. Anyone have this problem and know what to do to fix it. I don't want to upgrade to the IPhone 6, I like my Iphone 5.

Hey Fran0417,
I understand your iPhone is not charging no matter what you connect it to. You have tried different charging sources. To further isolate, have you tried more than one cable?
Going further, please check out this article
If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
If the battery doesn’t charge
If the battery doesn’t charge, unplug your device and try these steps:
Look at the connector at the bottom of your device and make sure it’s free of debris.
If you're using a USB power adapter, make sure it's plugged in all the way and the power outlet is working. If you're connecting to a computer, make sure it's on and can charge your device. To charge an iPad, you might need to use a USB power adapter and plug into a power outlet.
Try a different USB cable, USB power adapter, or USB port.
If everything seems to be working, reconnect your device and wait for 30 minutes.
If your device still doesn’t charge, try to restart it while it's connected to power. If you can't restart, reset your device.
If that doesn't help, continue with the article to the end.
Regards,
Nubz

Photo stream between my two iPhones has suddenly stopped working?

This used to work perfectly, but all of a sudden has just stopped - I have checked all settings and everything seems to be right - can't figure it out - can anyone help? Thank you!

Does it not work either way? Sending and receiving? Did you check the settings and make sure that nothing has changed? If you can receive email, but not send it, check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

IMessage on iPhone 4s suddenly stopped working

I was texting my friends as usual today when suddenly my iMessage just completely stopped working. All of my contacts turned to green except for one but whenever I sent a text to her, it would fail to send. I tried turning off iMessage and returning it back on but it remained at "waiting for activation" for hours. I tried resetting the Network but that did not work either. I'm getting pretty annoyed at this problem since all my group chats and other iMessage chats will not be working for me. Solutions anyone?
