Obvious problem with ios 8.02 and Bluetooth

So....just like every one else out there my and my wife's new iphone 6 with IOS 8.02 will not connect properly to either of our cars - Chevy volt and Mini Countryman. Yes I deleted phone, reset, re-paired and reset the phones numerous times. This is unsafe and unacceptable. Apple needs to fix this problem. In California it is illegal to talk on the phone without hands free Bluetooth. I find it unbelievable that they did not find this out and fix this prior to the release of the software update. Please update to fix so everyone can once again use their cars Bluetooth safely or do we now have to buy apple cars to make it work?

Um....iOS 8.1 came out Monday and it specifically says the update addresses issues with Bluetooth connectivity.  And lot's of people have already reported their Bluetooth headaches went away with iOS 8.1.  Have you updated to 8.1?

  • Is anybody else having problems with iOS 7.1 and Home Sharing?

    I have two iPhone 4's - one I recently upgraded to iOS 7.1 and the other running 6.3.1. The phone upgraded to 7.1 will not connect to my (rather large iTunes library) on my Mac Mini (running 10.9.2). The 7.1 phone does see the library - and attempts to connect - but the progress indicator stops at about 50%.
    I've tried de-activating sharing on the Mini and then re-activating. I've tried restoring the 7.1 phone from a back-up. No change.
    Also - now the 6.3 phone will connect to the library - but the playlists have no entries and 99% of the library is missing.
    Before the upgrade - the phone now running 7.1 never had any issues with Home Sharing.
    Anyone else out there having issues with iOS 7.1 and Home Sharing?

    I've had no problems with Facebook on my iPhone 5 but here are a couple of suggestions.
    1. Quit Facebook like I describe then reset the iPhone. 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.
    2. If the first thing doesn't help, quit Facebook again, delete Facebook, and reset the iPad. After the iPad restarts use the App Store app to download Facebook again.

  • Ipad 3 still has wifi problems with ios 8.1 when bluetooth is turned on

    IOS 8 has created nothing but problems with my Ipad 3. None of the Apple Updates has fixed the problems. IOS 8.02 was almost no wifi until I realized that I could turn off the bluetooth and then I had fast Wifi again. The new IOS 8.1 improved this very little. I tried the bluetooth on and got half the speed I should. Turn The bluetooth off and I get normal speed on Wifi.
    Apple makes it next to impossible to report problems to them, so I will post complaint here and hope they review comments. So far everything else seems to be working other than the Wifi issue. Wish I could just go back to IOS 7.

    Ever since upgrading to IOS 8, including IOS 8.01, 8.02 and 8.1 I had the wellknown Wifi issue. wifi speeds dropping from 120mbps to about 2mbps @ 5ghz in within a minute after connecting to the wifinetwork. often i couldn't even surf at all. but the wifi signal was always strong. With every update i was hoping for a solution from Apple but it never came. Tried everything that can be found on the internet. Resetting the network settings. Disabling "wifi networking" under Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services. Reinstalling my Ipad from scratch Used different routers and different setups. Automatic ip's and fixed ip's and different dns servers just to be sure. Nothing worked. The only workaround is switching to a 2.4Ghz network. So i was doing some tests and found THE solution, but i don't like it all. One of the biggest changes in IOS 8 is the ability to use airplay without a network. by using a wifi connection in combination with bluetooth. And here lies the problem. I disconnected al my Airplaydevices from my network. Denon AV-amplifier AVR2113, Pioneer wireless speaker XW SMA3 and an airport express. Et voila... My Ipad is back to normal. fast... no very fast internet connection and stable as ****. Just like iOS 7 was. Working with it for a couple of hours now without any trouble at all. But do i connect one Airplay device to the network the wifi is not stable anymore and extremely slow again on my ipad air. My Macbook running mac os x mavericks doesn't have these issues, neither does my iphone 5S. and they are also on the same 5ghz network. So I can create and recreate the issue and create a work around... Apple please come with a solution that makes me able to use airplay an ipad (on ios8) on a 5ghz network! like in iOS 7!!!!

  • Network Problems with iOS 6.1 and iPhone 5

    I strongly believe that the network connections with iOS6 and my iPhone5 has serious problems. I am experiencing the following issues;
    Weak wifi signal at locations where I was enjoying good connection with iOS 6.0.1
    Sometime when I enter into a known wifi area, the phone does not connect to wifi automatically. I have to open the Settings App and go to wifi section to get it connected.
    Sometimes when I wake-up my phone from sleep, which is sleeping well within wifi range, it shows 3G connection and take some times to get connected to wifi.
    I am experiencing fast battery draining when compared to my phone with iOS 6.0.1
    FYI, I have already tried resetting my network settings and done hard restarting many times without success.
    Please advice any action to solve the problems.
    FYI, I have submitted the above to Apple via Apple feedback page.

    I am having the same issues with an iPhone 5 and it all started when I upgraded to iOS6.1.  I geat a strong wifi signal all 3 bars showing and speedtest shows a 20Mps upload and download connection (I have BT Infinity up to 70Mbps connection), however when I go onto safari or even simplae apps like weather or Sky News I am unable to connect  - regularly getting the message "Cannot connect to .... a wifi or 3G connection is required.  Occasionally it will work say 5% of the time bit having to switch to 3G and luckily I ahave an unlimited data package but the speeed is really slow ~ 2 Mps.  I have searched the web and see that Apple is saying there is a problem with Exchange server getting too meny messages and thus denying access but have followed the guidance given and reset the phone, resey the wifi connection and no change I can only use the phone on 3G.  I believe there is a big problem here and Apple need to get a fix out pretty quick.  If you read this and have the same issues then please log them so Apple know how big an issue this is.  I know it is not a wifi issue as getting great wifi on my iMAC and wife's iPhone 3.

  • Problems with iOS 7 Mail and Cisco Unified Messaging attachments?

    Does anyone out there use Cisco Unified Messaging in their workplace? I am seeing an issue with iOS 7 (7.0.0-7.0.2) where the following scenario occurs:
    You check an email in the Mail app that is from the Cisco Unified Messaging system when you get a voicemail. The voicemail is left by Person A who attaches a subsequent voicemail from Person B and they leave an intro saying "Attached is a voicemail blah blah blah"  The email from Cisco comes across as having a .wav attachment and then an email attachment with a .wav file inside (supposed to be the original voicemail from Person B). If you play both .wav attachments, it just plays the same audio and not separate voicemails (one being the intro from Person A and one being the original Person B voicemail). It seems to hold on to whichever .wav attachment you played first (e.g. if you play the Person B voicemail .wav file and then go to the .wav file that should be Person A's intro, it just plays Person B's voicemail).
    We did not experience this with iOS 6 and have confirmed that things work just fine on phones that have not been upgraded to iOS 7. Email account on iOS devices is a Microsoft Exchange account.
    I am sorry if this is already a known issue, but I've had trouble searching for results. Any help would be tremendous in hunting down this strange phenomenon.
    Thank you,
    -Ted

    Does anybody have even any thoughts on this and whether it might be a known issue of any kind? Anyone seeing this with other .wav attachments outside of Cisco UM  ?

  • Has anyone had the same problem with IOS 6 install and McAfee flagging certain IOS 6 install components as Malware?

    I was using ITunes to install IOS 6 on my 64GB IPad 2 when McAfee on my IMac (Software  OS X 10.8.1 (12B19)) reported that it had found Malware and had put the offending file into quarantine. The IOS 6 install process then tried to re-write the file. This happened with three seperate files that the IOS 6 install process was attempting to write, effectivley causing a stall in the process. The only way I could get the install process to complete was to go into the McAfee preferences and change quarantine to notify. The process then completed.  Has anyone else come across this problem?

    Hmmmm... That did not work.  I did the full restore on the ipod touch (Losing that is the lesser of the two evils if I screwed it up) and before I resynced it, I unplugged it and tried to plug it into the wall adapter.  But it would not charge.  Plugged it back into the computer and it popped right up with the lightning bolt on the battery and began charging.
    So I resynced it and at least all my stuff is still there.  Not going to bother trying with my phone if it didn't work on the ipod touch.
    I can assure you my 4s is out of warranty.  I've had it for 2 years. 

  • Problem with IOS 6 download and now ipod wont work

    i got a notification about the new IOS 6 version to download and so i accepted and downloaded it...the download completed but then my iPod went black and never came back on. i gave it time to turn on by itself but nothing happened. i went home and plugged it in to itunes and it states my ipod is in recovery mode and that in order to pursue further action i need to restore i have restored it multiple times and nothing happens. it just verifies restore with itunes and says its waqiting on ipod but nothing ever happens. what do i do now? i need my iPod up and running soon!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How do I fix the compatibility issue between my iPhone 4S with iOS 7 and my Pioneer car stereo? There was no problem with iOS 6, but now I get a message saying "this device is not compatible" and so I can't use Netflix for example. How do I fix it?

    This is a typical response from the manufacturer. Did you try the fix that Lawrence mentioned. When Apple or any other phone manufacturer update phone software, they have the latest Bluetooth installed. It is usually the problem with the radio manufacturer that they devices are using the older Bluetooth protocols. You can try this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3581 and see if anything there helps, but generally it requires the radio manufacturer to update their firmware.

  • It's now over 6 weeks since I made the mistake of updating my iPad and I am furious and frustrated at the lack of a solution to the problem with ios 5 audio app missing lyrics

    It’s now over 6 weeks since I made the mistake of updating my iPad and I am furious and frustrated at the lack of a solution to the problem with ios 5.
    I recently updated to ios 5.1 but nothing has been done to rectify the audio app problems ie lyrics no longer shown,
    I am extremely disappointed and angrywith those responsible for the iOS 5 update, in regard to the way it hasaffected the music app in my iPad.
    I also own an iPhone 4, am an avid Apple fan, and up until now have beenextremely pleased with the devices, and have sung their praises to friends andassociates.
    I am a professional musician, and purchased an iPad primarily to use with theperformance of my music.
    The changes made to the music app affected my performances over the weekendextremely adversely – limiting my repertoire and causing confusion and delays.
    I have spent many hours talking withApple helpline assistants (who, incidentally have been very good and have triedto help), and I have also spent a lot of time on this letter.
    I greatly regret updating to iOS 5.
    There are two major problems with the music app.
    1. Lyrics no longer displayed
    2. Layout, and appearance and consequently performance have seriouslyregressed.
    I have a repertoire of around 500 song backing tracks, organised into about 20playlists, half of which featured lyrics / chords that I have spent monthsrecently entering into iTunes so that they could be used on my iPad.
    These were working fine up until the update - now they are gone.
    Previously, the app featured large icons for playlist, artists, songs etc. atbottom of page: Now there are small, grey, indistinct barely legible buttons.
    Previously, when playlist icon was selected - all the playlists were listedclearly in order on the left hand side in black on white (as in iTunes).
    Now they are scattered across the whole page in large squares (displayingnothing if there is no album art).
    The identifying wording below eachsquare is now small, grey, indistinct & barely legible.
    Previously, when a playlist was selected - the songs were displayed in adescending list in black & white: now they appear as small, grey indistinct & barely legible.
    Previously, when a song was selected - it appeared filling the page, and withaudio controls clearly positioned at top of screen. One tap would bring uplyrics.
    Now audio controls appear at top once again small, grey, indistinct &barely legible.
    A small square representsalbum art which if tapped fills page. A further tap fails to bring up lyrics.
    Don Wilson

    Lyrics aren't supported in the Music app on iOS 5 on the iPad. These are user-to-user forums, they are not monitored by Apple (there are too many forums/threads/messages for that to happen). If you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • Problem with camera connection kit and IOS 5

    Since I upgraded my IPAD 2 to IOS 5 camera connection kit is no longer working properly:
    - when importing from a given CF card for the first time camera connection kit it is working with my camera (Canon EOS 7D)
    - however, as soon as i take additional photos on a non-empty CF card, things start getting weird when importing:
       - duplicates are no longer reliably recognized (some of the photos imported before are indicated as duplicates others not), hence an incremental upload of photos is no longer viable
         - some RAW photos are corrupted during import (it shows an "RAW" icon in the photo app, but no preview and the photo cannot be enlarged)
    I never had such problems with IOS 4.x I'm really frustrated about IOS 5.0 since camera conenction kit and the ability to deal with RAW photos were my main reasons to buy an IPAD...
    Anybody experiencing  similiar problems? Any viable workarounds?
    Thanks
    Claudio

    Friend, you say "The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces)"  What if one has several hundred photos/files. Renameing them on my computer each 8 characters long adds an extension (1), (2), (3), and so on. For example, "JUNE2014(1).  The connection kit won't read the photos due to the extra (1).  How can I fix this without having to rename each of the hundreds of photos one by one?
    Thank you, Cisco.

  • I have a problem with IOS 7 when I am installing app on App Store. I must read and accept new terms and condition. However, I read all new terms that I don't see Agree button to accept. Can you check help me this problem?

    I have a problem with IOS 7 when I am installing app on App Store. I must read and accept new terms and condition. However, I read all new terms but I still don't see "Agree" button to accept. Can you check help me this problem?

    If it says 'Open' in the App Store, then it's on your device.  What happens when you press the 'Open' button in the App Store?
    The App is on your phone, somewhere.  Use Spotlight to find it, or you can reset your Home Screen layout, and then you'll definitely find it.

  • Problems with iOS 5 in Kuwait

    Problems with iOS 5 in Kuwait. ID calling issue with names not being recognised. I just downgraded to 4.3.5. Waiting for a fix from apple

    After installing ios 5 here is my Concerns (Kuwait):
    1- The major problem is that caller id problem doesnt recognize the +965 prefix as you all stated , i found that on all carriers in kuwait ... the only temp solution is to duplicate all the contact numbers one time with (+965) to determine the Messages , other time without +965 to determine local calls -- NOTE--- using prefix 00965 will not solve the problem because both messages and calls will not recognizing it
    2- Some issues appeared in iCloud specialy in contacts section that if you disable icloud and keep your contacts on the iphone and then re-enable icloud and choose merge will cause all the contacts to be duplicated which is very annoying
    3- Kuwait is not found when trying to associate my apple id to a region to apply for any of the new apple services like i messages , home sharing for music and videos  or any location based service
    4- strange numbering format appears in my contacts in some other countries , this cannot be controlled , dashes '-' between numbers dont know why
    5- noticed some slow performance and partial hangs in answering calls or closing line .. this happened 2 times and stayed not longer than 3 seconds each .
    anyway ios 5 looks promising but need to fix those slight issues ASAP

  • Hey Apple when are you going to fix the problems with IOS 8.3??

    Hey Apple when are you going to fix the problems with IOS 8.3??
    Message is working weird.
    I don't have internet service when I'm away from my WiFi, because my phone won't use LTE now.
    Should I wait for a IOS 8.3.1 update or reset my phone to factory and start over?
    If there's a fix coming when will we see it?
    (I'm using iPhone6 plus)
    I've tried everything else to fix the problems I'm having. Soft restart. Hard restart. Used your chat line. Called Verizon. Reset network settings.... Help!!!!!
    I've posted on the Apple Communities about all this and I've sent in a couple of bug reports.
    I live up in the mountains and MUST be able to access my Verizon LTE for information if there is a fire! I'm in California!

    I have a Verizon iPhone 6 and am having none of those problems.

    Didn't they already have you do that? If you haven't, yes, you should restore your phone as new and test.
