Since I upgraded to iOS 6, my connection to my Tahoe's Bluetooth system has been poor. Any fixes Known?
When I initiate a call, sometimes it takes a couple of minutes to dial, other times it just quits. It worked fine with iOS 5, I'm hopeful iOS7 will have the problem fixed. I've unpaired the iPhone and re-paired it with no change. It still works fine with my non-iOS "dumb phones"
Does anyone else have this same issue and have you found a fix?
Hello Ronald295,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iOS: Third-party Bluetooth accessories
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1664
iOS: How to troubleshoot Bluetooth connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4562
Begin troubleshooting with these preliminary steps.
Check that you are in range of the Bluetooth device with which you are trying to pair your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. Most Bluetooth devices have a range of approximately 30 feet.
On your iOS device, tap Settings > Bluetooth and find your device in the list. If your device says Not Connected, tap the name of your device to attempt to connect it.
Tap Settings > Bluetooth and turn Bluetooth off and then on again.
Make sure that your Bluetooth accessory is turned on and fully charged or connected to power.
Restart your iOS device.
Tap Settings > Bluetooth and locate the Bluetooth accessory you are currently connected to or attempting to connect to. Then tap and Forget this Device. Try to pair your Bluetooth accessory again.
Note: You may need to re-enter your Bluetooth accessory PIN if your accessory requires one. Some common PINs are 0000, 1111, and 1234.
Restart your Bluetooth accessory by turning it off and then on again1.
Update your device to the latest version of software. See how to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
If your Bluetooth accessory has upgradeable firmware, check to see that you have the latest version1, 2.
Best of luck,
Mario

Since I upgraded to iOS 7.0.4 on my iPad 3, my battery capacity has drained almost 10% per hour without any use of the device. Prior to the upgrade, the battery charge would hold during periods of inactivity. What can I do to solve this significant problem? Is there a way to uninstall iOS 7.0.4 and return to the previous version?
Downgrading isn't supported.
You can poke around in the settings. There's a lot of stuff defaulted to on that you may not need, such as notifications.
You can also look into background app refresh and background app updates. They can be running in the background and drain your battery. -
tried several suggestions. Nothing works
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

Why my ipad doesn't sync wi-fi since I upgraded to iOS 5.1 and iTunes 10.6.0.40?
why my ipad doesn't sync wi-fi since I upgraded to iOS 5.1 and iTunes 10.6.0.40? I have a pc running windows 7 and my Bonjour service is started. I use the Remote app (airplay) normally but the ipad doesn't appear listed in iTunes to sync wi-fi.
Is your iPad recognized by iTunes when connected to your computer via USB?
If so, does Sync with this iPad over Wi-Fi remain selected under the Summary tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes? -
Ever since I upgraded to IOS 7 on my iPad2, it does not remember my passwords, even though I check "keep me signed on". Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing? I did not have this issue with the previous OS. Thank you.
Thank you, James, but I do have a WiFi connection on the iPad mini. The Numbers files update on my iPad third generation and iPhone just fine when connected to the same network.
Do you have any other suggestions?
Thank you! -

Since I upgraded to IOS 6 , when I text it goes to my phone and my wife's how to I make it stop
It is a Continuity feature. See the quote below from: Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity
Phone calls
To make and receive phone calls on your iPad or iPod touch, here's what you need:
Your iPhone needs to use iOS 8 or later.
Both devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network.
Both devices must be signed in to FaceTime using the same Apple ID.
Wi-Fi Calling needs to be off. -

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.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

ever since I upgraded to ios 7, my battery life is very short. I do not use the ipad all that much and have to charge it twice as much as before. I have been on the phone to Apple 3 times and turned off a number of things that I am not using and now power it off more regularly but still not happy with battery life. It is less than a year old and as I said, I don' t use it all that much
My best bet would be to restore the phone. Back it up to itunes, and then reset it Factory settings. This way, any corrupt software will be removed, and you can start fresh. Make sure you back it up first. By the sounds of it, you are using the phone for business and probably need the data from it. Hope this helps!

Since I upgraded to IOS 7.0.2, many times I am unable to answer the calls. Then I have to switch off and on to answer the calls. I checked with my three friends who updated and they are also facing same problem. Kindly let me know the solution.
Since other millions of people updated and do not have that problem - it means one of two.
1.Your friends lied to you and do not have that problem and in that case only your installation of ios7 got corrupted and you need to restore your phone.
2.Your friends didn't lie to you and all 4 of you need to restore phones (that way reinstalling ios 7 properly)
here are instructions for restore and you may have to backup before restore.

On one of my lists, I would like to change the label of the edit button that displays on the ADDT dynamic lists to "select" rather than "edit". Is there anyway to do this? Seems like it is buried somewhere in the code or is a separate object.
