Problems calibrating compass on iOS 7

I've just installed iOS 7 on my iPhone 4S but I can't calibrate the compass - the ball simply won't roll around the circle. The spirit level works fine, so I imagine it's not a problem with any sensors. Any thoughts?

Ditto for me, also on an iPhone 4s. The first time I opened the Compass app, I tilted the ball around and it successfully calibrated and showed the azimuth. But subsequent attempts at calibration do nothing and after several seconds the app shows the compass dial, but it is frozen. Doesn't seem to be a sensor issue, because other apps with a compass (such as Motion X GPS) seem to work fine. I've tried force quitting the app and rebooting the iPhone, but neither solved the problem.

I have tried reseting the network settings and forgetting my wireless connection and re-connecting to it. I even backed up my phone on itunes and restored it, factory reseted it. Nothing seems to work.
Also after my upgrade to ios 8.1 my personal hotspot option under cellular data has disappeared.
Would you please help me out? I would really appreciate it.

Hi..
Restart your router then restart the iPhone to test.

Problem with GarageBand for iOS 6/7 Iphone 3gs / 4

Problem with GarageBand for iOS 6/7 Iphone 3gs / 4
Hello,
On February 16, bought the GarageBand for iOS which was free and so I find and install it on my 3GS .
Take the demo: Curtain Call Demo
and within the instruments :
audio Recorder
Sampler
Smart Drums
Smart Strings
Smart Bass
Smart Keyboard
Smart Guitar
Keyboard
Drums
Guitar Amp
1.4.1 is the latest version for ios 6.
Configure my AppleID on a Iphone 4 and install the program , the version I have the Iphone 4 is the orange ( different from 3gs ) icon and put it on the AppStore : ios 2.0.1 for ios7.
With these instruments :
audio Recorder
Sampler ( to download the instrument )
Smart Drums ( to download the instrument )
Smart Strings (Download the instrument )
Smart Bass ( to download the instrument )
Smart Keyboard ( to download the instrument )
Smart Guitar
Keyboard
Drums
Guitar Amp ( to download the instrument )
and if I give what I need to restore tells me if I bought it I did not restore anything and tells me to buy :
Complete collection of GarageBand instruments and sound at a price of : € 4.49
As they are 2 different versions ? More than anything I say because I have to pay for the instruments in the 2.0.1 version of the Iphone 4 ... ?
And besides not wearing demo Demo Curtain Call : (
GarageBand 1.x If you are upgrading it using iTunes on a Mac or PC, you can restore the original collection of instruments and sounds. There is no need to buy this collection. Press "You've already purchased?" When displayed on iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
this puts on the AppStore but I have tried to restore as I wrote above, and does not work. There is nothing to restore.
regards

I've been having the same problem. However, I believe my problem is due to the 3G issues I've been having. I don't have internet access even when the 3G symbol appears, so probably my iphone keeps trying to connect to the network and has its battery drained! Have you been having the same issue?

I have a problem with Safari in IOS 8 on my iPad 3. The bookmarks take up a third of the screen and I can't seem to make the bookmarks disappear until I need them. The useful part of the screen is therefore very small. Any suggestions gratefully appr

I have a problem with Safari in IOS 8 on my iPad 3. The bookmarks take up a third of the screen and I can't seem to make the bookmarks disappear until I need them. The useful part of the screen is therefore very small. Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.

OK, it now sort of works. A couple of problems here:
After updating IOS, Safari iCloud was "automatically" switched off
Switching it on had no effect
resetting my iPad automatically switched off safari iCloud again
after switching it back on, it said "turning off safari data"
switched it off and on again, now it said : "turning on safari data" and the sync worked
On IOS 7 no problems
The bookmarks not being displayed was because after pressing the book icon, it defaulted to showing the history and I had to press "Back" to get to the other options

When people text me pictures to my iphone5, I can not open them. This was not a problem until I downloaded iOS 6.1.3. I also can't open attachments from e-mails sent to me on my phone.

Try a reset hold home/sleep buttons until Apple logo appears
If that does not improve try a restore

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Iphone 5 back camera problem after update to IOS 8. Focus doesn't work on back camera!

My device is Iphone 5 64gb IOS 8.
I have problem after update to IOS 8. When i run camera.. I hear some scratch inside my phone. And focus of back camera doesn't work.
1. How can i fix it?
2. Or how to rollback to IOS 7+ ?
3. Should i come to app store with this problem?

I'm having this same problem too. Worked fine prior to iOS update. I contacted Verizon this morning who advised that this is a known issue. They suggested I backup my device, and perform a factory data reset. When prompted to update to iOS 8 again, re-installation has been known to resolve the issue. With all the problems with iOS 8, camera, and overall device slowing, I might just wait for a follow on SW turn.

My iTunes won't detect my iPhone that has to be restored via iTunes *because if pass code problems* and its running iOS 7.2

my iTunes won't detect my iPhone that has to be restored via iTunes *because if pass code problems* and its running iOS 7.0.4

If itunes is comming up and saying it can't read the device because it's locked with a passcode, you may have to put your device into recovery mode first.
To put your device in recovery mode: (Following these steps will erase your device and reset everything to factory defaults)
1) press and hold the power button until you see the slide to power off option
2) swipe to power off
3) Press and hold the home button while the device is off and connect it to your computer. Continue holding the home button until you see a graphic with the iTunes logo with a picture of a USB cable below it.
4) iTunes should give you a message that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click ok and then select Restore iPhone. iTunes will download a fresh copy of iOS and then wipe the device and restore it. Depending on the speed of your computer's internet connection this may take a while. Just leave the iphone connected to your computer until it's finished.
If itunes is not detecting it at all or is Not giving you the message that the phone is locked with a passcode, you may end up having to reinstall itunes. This seems to be a fairly common problem after the most recent itunes update (11.1.5)
If this is the case and you happen to be running a windows based computer you will have to uninstall itunes in this order from your programs and features option in control panel:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Then download and reinstall itunes from itunes.com try putting your device into recovery mode again and restore.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

Problem after upgrading to iOS 6.1.3

I recently upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS 6.1.3, and started facing the problem with incoming calls.
iPhone 5 is not able to recieve second call within 5-10 seconds of finishing the first call. The problem is hard to notice, as you wont get any error message or warning. The caller hears the user not reachable message. The problem is not with the carrier, as I have tried using almost all the operators available in India.
I even tried using 5 different handsets (all on iOS 6.1.3), and all had this problem. Luckily I got my iPhone replaced and checked for the issue before upgrading the iOS to 6.1.3, and it was working fine. Just to confirm if the problem was there with iOS, I again upgraded the iOS, and found the same thing happening again.
Want to know if this problem is specific to iPhones marketed in India? Was wondering if the issue is with iOS upgrade, it should be happening with all the handsets, but could not see any such post in the community. Or is it just hapening with my iPhone???

This is Apple's official answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
Also look to the More Like This box on the right for other's experience.
Two other suggestions I have seen (I have no personal experience with either):
Turn on Airplane mode, turn the phone off, wait 30 minutes, turn it back on.
Put it in a ziplock bag (to prevent condensation), put it in a freezer for 15 minutes.

Problems since updating to iOS 7.

Hi everyone ! I got some problems since updating to iOS 7.My first problem is that my computer can't detect the photos from my iPhone 4.My second problem is that when I watch a video on Youtube or Facebook it keeps stopping for some seconds and then it plays normaly like it should.The third problem is that some apps change their look sometimes.What I mean is that the Calendar app sometimes takes a look from another app on the other page.So the calendar app sometimes looks like Minion Rush app.The calendar app isn't the only one app which does that.The fourth problem is that sometimes I can't acces the first page.My phone sometimes crashes when I try to swip to the first page.Does anyone has a solution for this or I will have to wait until next update in which they will maybe fix it ?

reset all settings
settings- general- reset - reset all settings
now reconnect to wifi
settings - wifi- click network name - enter password - join
if issue persists backup info and restore via itunes

I am having problems with Dropbox on IOS 7.

I am having a problem with Dropbox on IOS 7 iPhone. I keep getting, "Go to iTunes to use push notifications. I try to do this, but nothing happens. I screen on my phone just freezes, and I have to turn it off and then on again.

Hello Jeff,
I used regedit to search for the registry key referenced in solution 2
and it was not present in my registry. I uninstalled yesterday's CS2
installation. I also uninstalled Photoshop 7.0 just in case that was
causing the problem and did a full reinstall of CS2 in accordance with
your directions. Today's results are no different from yesterday's.
Photoshop refuses to let me in, not even asking for a serial number,
ImageReady will not permit use, Illustrator allows me in but only after
postponing the registration process. The only difference is that this
time I was able to locate InDesign, which asked for a serial number and
rejected as invalid the one given at the download site.
Next, I am going to uninstall CS2 again and try installing the
individual applications one at a time from the download site, using the
serial numbers associated with them. I may also look in the registry
again after the uninstall of CS2 to see if there are any lingering Abode
application remnants hanging around (although I am really fearful of
doing anything with the registry).
