My location service suddenly stopped working, Help !!!

Hi, suddenly my location service of my ipad3 stopped working. It was working good but now the location service in settings appears on a grey color and I can't manage the apps. Please help!

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPad: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPad.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • Location Services suddenly stopped working (since v3.2.2?).  Suggestions?

    I have a 64gb WiFi only model. Until today, location services were working quite well (considering it isn't a 3G model) but today they are not.
    I tethered my ipad to the Macbook today (I seldom do this) and received the v3.2.2 update, which could be the culprit. I had also been trying to connect to a verizon MiFi card last night (unsuccessfully) and suppose that could have changed some sort of setting.
    In trying to fix it I have done the following (based on suggestions in other threads):
    - rebooted iPad - didn't help
    - turned Location Services off, then back on again - didn't help
    - Reset network Settings - didn't help
    - Reset Location Warnings - didn't help
    - Reset ALL Settings - didn't help
    - checked "find my iPad" through MobileMe - I ccould send a msg to the iPad, but still can't locate it
    - restored to factory settings then restored from backup. Unfortunately, the only backup I could restore from was one from this morning. that didn't help either
    WiFi signal from AirPort Extreme is strong (and unchanged) and I have no problems connecting to the internet. All of the apps that require location, including MobleMe Find my iPad, inform me that my "current location is unavailable".
    I have seen a few threads about this, but none in the last week or so. Has anyone had this problem and successfully resolved it?

    Thanks.. but not everyone experiences the same issues. My "research" seems to indicate that the upgrade is the culpret.
    I have had the iPad since May with absolutely no issues on any network, including my home wifi network. To see if my network could have been the problem, I took the iPad to the local Starbucks today where I have always had good service (um... wifi service, not coffee service). I even sat at the same table I usually sit and although I was able to connect to their wifi, I still had NO LOCATION SERVICES.
    Guess I better make an appt. with the experts.

  • GPRS services suddenly stop working after some time abt 4 hrs.Airplane on off solves it

    I am using a factory unlocked iPhone 4 GSM in India. Iam currently using it on airtel network 2G services i.e GPRS services. Now the problem I have noticed is that the GPRS services suddenly stop working after some time say about 4 hours. Then what i do is to turn airplane mode on and then off or restart the phone and GPRS starts working. Agan after some time I have to repeat this exercise. Please help soon. This is happening since the time i bought this phone i.e from past 20 days. I have tried allpossible network settings and resetting network but nothing helped. everything else is working perfect.

    Hi Syed,
    I have also started facing the exact same problem since the past few months with my docomo service.
    Earlier, EDGE / GPRS used to work just fine from my workplace where the network was good.
    But recently, I got my iphone replaced, due to a network problem, from an apple store in indianapolis, and also upgraded to ios 5.....so not sure now whether this intermittent EDGE / GPRS outage is due to the new hardware or the new OS.
    Did you upgrade to iOS 5 and did it help?
    PS: iOS 5.0.1 also doesn't seem to be helping, I still need to restart the phone to get EDGE / GPRSt to work.....will try out the airplane mode thing....at least that shouldn't take as much time as a full reboot.
    Regards,
    Hemant

  • Location services is stopped working after upgrading to iOS 5

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • My TFT display suddenly stopped working HELP! G4 MDD DP1.25

    Hi all...could use some pointers here. My formac 17" TFT display has suddenly stopped working on my MDD G4 DP1.25 - I use the standard graphics card. Turned the mac on today, and the display just wont turn on, though the silver light on the display flashes (as in standby) which means it's getting power. I also have a CRT display attached to the same card, and it's working as normal which I presume means that the graphics card is not dead. I tried booting from a different startup volume, same result. Any ideas please?? thanks!

    no it doesn't support multiple inputs, it just has an on/off switch and is connected to the radeon 9000 pro graphics card (as shipped with the G4) via the ADC connector. Like I said, the VGA monitor that's hooked up to the same card works ok. And....weirder still, the Formac monitor has USB ports on the back, and although the monitor will no longer work (just the pulsing light on the front suggesting it's in stanbdy mode) the USB devices will still work when connected to the monitor - so this means either the card is half working or the monitor is half working!!! But I need to know which before I spend any $$$. Anyone got any ideas please? thanks!

  • My ipod touchs location services has stopped working. I just installed a new modem to my pc could that be the problem and how to fix ? ive already reset the ipod to new status and no help. thank for any help

    my ipod touch has lost location services after i installed a new modem to my pc . it is turned on in the settings and i have even reset the ipod to new status. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

    Nothing you can do except wait until Apple adds the router to their database of routers and their location. If you or someone nearby does not have an iPhone it can take a while. There is no way to tell Apple to add a router to their database.

  • Location Services just stopped working

    So my problem is that I wasn't using location services really when I first got my iPad 2 but when I downloaded an app game it just stopped working. Facebook was able to locate me before and google maps as well. I've tried just about every troubleshooting advice I've seen in this forum. Resetting, hard restart etc. but I'm wondering now if there is a problem with my router since I don't use my iPad except when I'm at home. I don't know of an apple authorized dealer in Jamaica to fix this so if I can't solve it I'd have to send it to one in the US or if I travel there take it to one to be checked up. I don't know what to do next..but I really feel handicapped without the location services.
    What to do?

    Have you tried taking it out in the open where it can access GPS satellites?
    The buildings around you may be blocking the GPS satellities.

  • Camera suddenly stopped working HELP

    I have been editing with a Canon ZR-80 on my G-4 laptop. For no reason, that I can determine, the set-up stopped working today. I hooked everything up and when I opened FCP it said it was not seeing a device. I made sure the camera was in VCR mode, cable secure, on etc and everything was fine. I continued and tried to capture anyway. When I pressed play the camera started playing the video, but you couldn't see it on the log and capture screen. It just says, Device not available.
    Please help!

    update quicktime today?
    if so ...
    To do a full quicktime reinstall.
    Go to /library/receipts and delete any files that say Quicktime followed by a number e.g. Quicktime703.pkg
    Go to the Apple quicktime site and download the appropriate version of Quicktime to your hard drive.
    Run the Quicktime installer.
    Repair Disk Permissions for your System Disk (Disk Utility > Select the system disk > Repair Disk Permissions)
    Reboot
    Good luck.

  • Services suddenly stop working

    Hi,
    I wrote a few custom services in Automator to drive the program iStopMotion (telling the program to take the next picture, delete the last picture, play the movie, etc.).  They work fine for a while and then... they just stop.  You can neither trigger them with their keyboard shortcuts, nor run them from the services menu (they appear there as normal, but clicking them has no effect).
    This line shows up in the log whenever this happens:
    4/29/13 10:15:47.504 AM iStopMotion[187]: NSTrackPersistentURLs: LSSharedFileListItemRemove() failed with error -50 on URL file://localhost/Users/stopmotion1/Documents/2013April29-36899.mov (/Users/stopmotion1/Documents/2013April29-36899.mov)
    I've searched on that error and haven't turned up much.  Any ideas?

    The application still works normally, so I can execute all the operations from within the application (using both its menus and its keyboard shortcuts).  It's just the services that aren't working.
    A bit more info: 
    1.  *Other* services still work, it's just the Automator-derived ones that stop working.  (For example, I can launch Text Edit and use the 'Capture Selection From Screen' service just fine.)
    2.  The error that's recorded in the log isn't as consistent as I thought before.  For example, just now I got the following (which makes a bit more sense; at least it's Automator complaining about something):
    4/29/13 3:05:10.710 PM com.apple.automator.xpc.workflowServiceRunner[207]: void workflow_service_runner_peer_handler(xpc_connection_t, xpc_object_t): Peer XPC handler received unexpected message error: Connection invalid
    3.  Another weird thing:  After a restart, oftentimes the key commands for my services won't work (I just get an alert sound) until I go and manually click one of them from the Services menu.
    At any rate, I have an identical Mac mini here, so I'll probably try to set all this up on it and see if the problem happens there, too.
    Thanks for your input so far!

    I have read quite a few posts about similar issues but none of them have helped. My DNS, Mail, and Web Services all appear to be configured properly in Server Admin. Any thoughts or ideas how to fix this mess?
    Thanks

    Thanks for your help, MrHoffman. I have narrowed down a problem (though I don't know if it is THE problem.) In checking my DNS settings, I ran the -checkhostname command in terminal. It gave me the following response:
    Primary address     = 108.66.223.18
    Current HostName    = server.b-hiveindustries.com
    DNS HostName        = 108-66-223-18.uvs.irvnca.sbcglobal.net
    It gave me instructions on how to change it so that both names match but I ended up with both names being the sbcglobal.net name and NOT my server name. I changed it back to the above configuration before deciding to ask for more help.
    Any thoughts on if this could be my problem or how to fix it?
    I also realized that everything in the email response is public knowledge so here is the complete un-obfuscated email response.

  • AEBS suddenly stopped working -- help?

    I've had this AEBS for just over a year, and it's worked just fine up through last night. This morning, though, it stopped connecting, though the "fan" in my menu bar showed four bars. I thought it was a problem with my DSL, but the telephone repairman gave the DSL a clean slate of health and showed me that connecting directly to the DSL router with Ethernet was working fine. He did repair the problem I was having with my phones, though.
    I haven't added any new "devices" (microwaves, cordless phones, etc.) that weren't here yesterday, nor have I changed any settings. I suppose something could have gone haywire and changed on its own, but that doesn't seem too likely.
    I've been given a brand-new DSL modem (it didn't make any difference), and I've restarted my AEBS, all to no avail. If it helps, I use 128-bit WEP with a password. If there's other information you need, just let me know.
    So now my MacBook is connected with a wire, but that takes away the advantage of having a laptop. Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this problem? Thanks!

    The same thing happens to me when I do a security update. Check out this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=225328&threadrate=1&messageid= 1125560#1125560
    It might be your keychain. When I logoff or shutdown, I'll see a popup message: Confirm Application Change
    If I "Change All" then the next time I log in, I can connect to the Air Port. Anyway, check out the thread and see if it helps.

  • Internal Microphone suddenly stopped working, help please.

    That is my problem. I have updated my driver, restored my computer to a time where my mic worked. It was working earlier today, then when I restarted my laptop, I had the legendary Toshiba startup issue. Once I got that figured out and got back onto my computer, I got bluescreened. Eventually I fixed my computer, with this last remaining issue. I've never had issues with my internal microphone.
    It's not muted, it's enabled. How can I plug it in when it's an internal microphone? I'm very frustrated. Someone help me. I've been searching for a way to fix it for two hours and I haven't come up with a single solution that's solved the problem.

    First check System Preferences/Sound - check all the settings to make sure mute is not selected.

  • My iPad Air has the latest software update, since that the location services are not working! What to do? Even my friend's iPod has the same problem. Our version is iOS 7.1.2. I think that the services have stopped working since iOS 7.0.4.

    My iPad Air has the latest software version(iOS 7.1.2) update, since that update the location services have stopped working. have a solution?

    I have had the same problem, so many apps do not work properly without it! Apple says the internet satellite, the Internet satellite says Apple, back and forth with the blame instead of fixing the problem. Have turned location on and off, reset everything multiple times ( lots of hours and bandwidth to download ), Siri is now working part time, I guess she has cut back her hours for the summer. Even in these forums was suggested to check with Skyhook who does the global positioning, and after hours with them, they ended up saying that they have nothing to do with it anymore, Apple does. All to no avail and much frustration! I wonder if this is happening with the iPhone's? i'd like to know if this is happening with others that do not use satellite as their ISP? That would help narrow down the argument with Apple vs. satellite. Fell for you! Someone please help us! Ta
