New iOS 6.1.2 update issues

When I downloaded new iOS 6.1.2 I now have no speaker, no ringtone, unable to listen to music w/out headphones. Has anyone had this problem/or solution?

So good news...I went to the Apple Store today and  2 hours later walked out with a new 4s at no cost to me.
My phone was 42 days outside of warranty, but they acknowledged that the phone is faulty... i.e. worked perfectly until 10 days ago before I installed iOS 6.1.2.  Therefore, on a case by case basis they agreed to provide a new phone.
I had previously done a reset, restart and restore last week and tried everything anyone had mentioned on these forums to fix my phone myself over the previous 10 days. It worked on and off, but the problems persisted.
The first step Apple did was to hard reset, then check it, and again no sounds.  They then said it was the speaker, so replaced that - still no sound.....then after waiting patiently for an hour the Manager agreed to replace the phone for me.  I guess I got lucky.
While there is no definite answer as to whether it's a hardware or software issue, obviously they have acknowledged a problem and given me a great solution.
Finally, I have re-installed everything and it seems to be working fine.
Good luck everyone, I hope you get a good outcome too.

  • In the new iOS 7.0.2 update, I can no longer find the iTunes Radio in the music application. Has it been removed, or is there still a way to access it?

    Hi jdog44,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  iTunes Radio should be accessible from the bottom of the Music app screen as shown in this article:

    You could try completely closing the Music app:

  • Does anyone know when is going to be a new ios 5.0.1 update?

    I read somewhere that there was going to be a new software update available by january 6th but I've been looking for it and guess what? nothing. Does anyone know when is going to be a new ios 5.0.1 update?

    Apple does not give the dates for software updates. They keep this a very good secret, so wherever you read it, is probably wrong or talking about an older version. If Apple did say, it would affect their sales.

  • New ios 7.1.2 update and battery drainage

    i recently updated my iphone 4s to the new ios 7.1.2 update and was fine for a few days afterwards, until the past day where even when charging it charges very slowly and only charged 20% while on charge for 6+ hours, ive never had a problem with my phone prior this update. ive tried resetting all settings, resetting it by holding the home and lock button together. nothing seems to work. HELP!!

    The problem is not iOS 7.1.2. If it was the problem would have occurred immediately. You have an app that is using power continuously, or your battery is failing. If you take it to an Apple store they can test the battery. Make an appointment first. And if the battery is OK see this: http://www.overthought.org/blog/2014/the-ultimate-guide-to-solving-ios-battery-d rain

  • Error message on the new iOS 4.3.5 update (err= -3259).

    Ive tried to update my 3G Ipod Touch with the new iOS 4.3.5, but when the download is on the last 0.1 MB it says ive lost connection, when I havent. Everytime it stops working I get a error message (err= -3259). How can I fix this without taking down my anti-virus or anything like that? I just need a simple solution. Thanks

    The simple solution is to temporarily disable anti-virus and firewall software during the update process. Why would you not want to do that? Any threat is non-existent.
    Depending on your anti-virus & firewall software it may be possible to make exceptions for certain programs like iTunes and certain ports used during the update. This, however, is more trouble than it is worth.

  • Getting an error message that unable to check for software update when trying to download new iOS 8.0.2 update ?? Can someone help ???

    Getting an error message of unable to
    check for software update when trying to update to
    ios 8.0.2. Can someone help ??

    Howdy there otss1979,
    It sounds like you are unable to download the iOS 8.0.2 update either, over the air, or using iTunes. If you are updating the software on your phone in Settings > General > software update I would recommend starting with this article:
    Resolve issues with an over-the-air iOS update
    If you are using iTunes, I would use this article instead:
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes
    If you are getting a specific error number, the following article will help you get that resolved:
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors
    If this does not resolve the issue, could you please write the error message you are getting word for word for me?
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

It even took 400+ songs out of my itunes library, but those songs original 800+ songs are still on my ipod, and stay there no matter how many times i sync to my library. they just won't sync together. please help me! i've already restored my ipod and i don't know what else to do. oh and i'm on an imac.

  • Help! iPhone 4s in Recovery Mode after new IOS 7.1.1 update.

    I went to update my iphone 4s earlier to IOS 7.1.1 and now it's in recovery mode. My issue with that is I keep trying to download the update on my computer so it can do the recovery and every time it gets to fully download (which bc I have a ****** internet company it takes hours to get there) I get an error message. IDK what else to do. Is there a way I can bypass the update and just run the recovery mode with the 7.1.0 update? I don't know what else to do. This is the first time I've had issues like this with this phone and I've had it over 3 years now.

    Don't know if this will help but when I updated to 4.0.2 my phone gave me an error and bricked.
    I made a new user on my computer, installed itunes and then was able to update my phone without it erroring. Once I had a working phone I went back to the old user and updated my phone with all of the information that was there before. I lost a few things but had a working phone.
    Since then I have not had a problem with updating it in the old user. You might see if it will help with you all.

  • IOS 7 App Store Updates - Issue?

    Hi-
    I recently updated to iOS 7 and have noticed what I think is a bug with App Store.  Occassionally when I unlock my iPhone (iPhone 5, if that matters) I see that the App Store badge has 1 or 2 updates available.  However when I open the App Store, there are no updates and in fact I see updates that I downloaded and installed on September 19th.  I've set the App Store to not install updates automatically.
    This seems like a bug...has anyone else experienced this?
    Thanks!

    Resurrecting old thread, but I'm having the same problem on multiple devices.
    More specifically, I am updating apps via cable sync from desktop Itunes. The apps are updated on the devices via the cable sync, but the counter stays there. As noted in the original post, when I open app store app on device, the apps needing update will first show Update next to them, then quickly change to Open, but the counter remains.
    Iphone 6, iOS 8.1.2
    Ipad 2 iOS 8.1.2
    Iphone 5 iOS 8.1.2
    I called Apple service (my iPhone 6 is still under warranty), they had no clue what was happening. All they did was told me to call them back another day and gave me a case ID.
    I have rebooted devices and restored them both as new and from backup. When the restore is done, the counter goes away, but then when a new app needs updating, it happens again.
    Anyobody having this issue recently and fixed it? It's very annoying.

  • IOS 7.1.2 Update issues

    Hello,
    Do you know how to revert to previous version or how to address issues with latest update of iOS from July 2014?
    It keeps throwing me out of Facebook when trying to open comments on some pictures or albums as well us my all third party lightning cables stopped to work now. I am well disappointed with it.

    You cannot remove the update. If the apps are not working, then try force closing all of the apps. Double-tap the home button and swipe upwards on the thumbnail of the apps listed. Then you can perform a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone should reboot. If this does not help, then the next step is to restore from a backup. If that does not help, the next step is to restore the device as new, not from a backup. If the device is still not functioning correctly, the final step is to make an appointment with the Genius Bar. However, as you say, she is in Germany which would not help, unless the device was purchased in an EU country. You do not indicate where the device was purchased, so hard to tell. To answer the other question, the only way to restore and not lose data is to perform a backup first, then restore from the backup. If that does not work, as I stated earlier, you would have to restore as new, which would delete all of the data on the phone.

  • IPhone 6 iOS 8.1.2 Update Issues

    I've updated my iPhone 6's iOS just right after Apple released its iOS 8.1.2. After the update, I've experienced issues on my iPhone, specifically the following:
    1. Battery issue - My battery has been terrible since the update. I now charge my phone three times a day though my activities are all plain social media, e-mail and SMS. I usually turn my LTE off when I dont use it and most of time, I use wifi. I used to charge my phone only once and it would last a day.
    2. Screen brightness - Ive noticed that my screen adjusts by itself even my auto-brightness option is off. Ive never turned it on to save battery.
    3. App Updates - Ive experienced several times that when I update an app, it won't complete the update and when I check back the status, it restarts. It will go that cycle around 3 times then will complete the update.
    Has anyone experienced the same?

    Thanks bud!
    I just got into bigger trouble. Ive restored my phone back to factory settings. Twas successful. I went through the normal iOS setup and restored my back up. I need to say though that during the setup, I was successful to set my touch ID and my passcode (entered my passcode twice). Then.. the twist was that when I went back to Settings after few minutes to add more fingerprints, my phone is prompting me that Ive entered an incorrect passcode, which blocked me from using it! Really really sad!
    This is a different issue now. But would you know how to fix this?
    I tried the recovery mode.. Restore thru iTunes.. but none of them worked. Also, now trying the DFU..
    I turned off my find my iphone via my phone (before it locked out). Got an email too that my device has disabled find my iphone. And then when I plug my iphone to my mac, itunes would say I cant restore because i should disable find my iphone... So, I looked at my icloud account via the internet and indeed, my iphone was not in the devices list anymore.
    Someone help?

  • IOS 7.0.4 update issues.

    Hi,
    After i updated my IPHONE 5 to IOS 7.0.4 i notice that i cant open my photos icon, it opens but then it close out right away, the only way around is i have to open up the camara than view my photos from there.  I also notices that some games wont load too as well.  For example:  i open up a game than it just black out and than the OS freezes and i cant do anything.  after like 3 mins the OS restarts and my Iphone 5 restarts it self.  From time to time my phone would freeze and restarts itself.  Anyone experience this problem?    I never have this issue before 7.0.4 update.
    Thanks

    Quit the Photod app like I describe then reset your iPad.
    Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • IMessage won't slide ON.  iOS 8.2.1 update issue

    I updated my iPhone 6 to 8.2.1 yesterday and I noticed all day that my messages were stuck in the send receive mode. So, I checked by MESSAGES in my settings and noticed that my iMessage slider was OFF.  I tried to slide it ON and it just slides back to the OFF position.  I also noticed that when I click on MESSAGES, it stalls for 60 seconds before opening the window.  HELP!

    Hello MSchirmerSF,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    From your post I gather that since you updated to iOS 8.2 you are unable to turn on iMessage.  To start troubleshooting this issue I'd like you to please force close the Settings app and the Messages app.  Follow that up by resetting the iPhone.  If the issue persists, then I'd like you to reinstall iOS.
    To start troubleshooting this issue, please go ahead and first force close all of the apps currently running on the device, and then reset it by following the steps in the articles below.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    If the issue still persists where you're unable to enable iMessage, please reinstall iOS by following these steps.
    Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
    Put your device in recovery mode.
    When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    Take care,
    Alex H.

  • IOS 5.0.1 update issues!!!

    has anyone else just updated to iOS 5.0.1 and led to iTunes wiping the whole phone, not backing up any music and then forcing it into restore mode losing all music? Nor did the so called 'over-the-air' update work either. Bearing in mind this is a brand new iPhone 4S, i'm not amused!!

    Me too. The OTA update was going along and then when I checked back later, I had the connect to iTunes screen. iTunes said I had to restore, (which took two attempts to finally work) and then had to sync back all my apps, etc. At least my last backup was only 2 weeks ago. Three words in IT, backup, backup, backup. Seems the phone is working ok now.
    Hopefully, Apple can duplicate and address. It really makes updating a pain when it takes an hour or two just to update the iOS with a patch. The next time I'll probably wait for a more important update, make sure I have a current backup and plently of time to watch the grey bar march.
    I have an iPhone 4. The update to 5 went smooth so I wonder if the OTA had anything to do with it.
    My iPad 2 update to 5 and even 5.0.1 OTA went smooth, whew.
