Some app issues

I have a problem with maps and an app.
Maps seems to have the compass backwards.  It shows me facing east when I'm pointing west on the maps screen.  I did the compass calibration and it still shows the opposite direction.
Also I did reset my phone back to factory default before the update landed.  I loaded a new weather app and it keeps crashing when trying to start.

@Bneely1  - you are correct. This "bug" was discovered also by the test group.  The issue, as I believe you are seeing it, is that the North / South view is upside down. e.g., When you are in a car and using the "follow me" blue arrow, if you're travelling say North, the map appears upside down where by the  blue arrow is not going FORWARD. Is that what you mean?  But East / West appears correct?  Google NAVIGATION doesn't do this - you have the option to switch up and down directions still.
This has been reported to Google - and you can also report it online to them. (the more of us that report it might get a faster fix.)
Ok I was wondering how I missed this bug but I see how now, I only use the navigation software and I never even opened the map app.  I never got the use for both.
Thanks Cody for clearing this up for me...

  • TS4036 My iPhone5 was replaced today and when I did a restore I was only able to access a previous backup to the backup that I did yesterday? Hence, I do not have access to some apps such as ebooks and games. Can you help resolve this issue?

    My girlfriend had a similar issue because her new device was not updated to IOS7 when she turned it on, but her backup point was created using IOS7.  Check to be sure the restore point was created and then factory reset the phone after you have updated to 7.

    My iphone 4s has some serious issues. After clicking some youtube link, my photos, settings icon, app store icon and safari icon and many more apps have been deleted. My iphone is useless since last 4 weeks. I cant do anything without these missing apps. please help.

    If it was just my router then my own network would kick in wouldn't it?
    No.  Not even sure what you mean by that.  The phone is trying to access particular IP addresses on the internet, which don't exist on "my own network."
    plus all my internet items at home running on my wifi are doing fine
    No again.  The fact that your router works with other devices doesn't mean it's compatible with the iPhone.  Did you even try restarting and updating the router as suggested?

    Hi I have just purchased an i pad for my wife and have registered it in my name to add some apps prior to giving the i pad to her. However, for using face time and games where you can link via wifi it will look as though there are two of the same, if I am trying to link her ipad to mine. How do you get around this?

  • I uninstalled itunes to fix some ipod issues, and now I tried to reinstall it but it says that it's already installed.

    I uninstalled itunes to fix some ipod issues, and now I tried to reinstall it but it says that it's already installed. When I went to find the "icon" I can"t find it. When i looked in the download files I saw the downloads, but not the actual itunes "app". Please help thanks!

    How did you uninstall it and what were your IPOD issues - that may help clarify the problem.

  • My iTunes says I owe $5.25 for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for again but I want to get some apps from the store and now there's a hold on my account. Who do I talk to get the hold taken off

    I explained it most in my question but I am getting charged double for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for twice because that is messed up. But I want to get some apps from the store and it wont let me because of $5.25. Who can I talk to about resolving this issue?

    You're right, it would have been covered under warranty. But because of the user damage, chances are there's a 200-something dollar fee . If you explain to them that it had a defect previously, they might replace it for you at no charge. **MIGHT**. But they would have to believe that it had a defect previously.

  • No sound or volume control in some apps

    Hi,
    Recently (last fews days) I have noticed that sound is not working in some apps. Also the volume up/down buttons do not seem to work in these apps either - the onscreen volume level widget does not appear.
    The issue is usually video related content such as the sky news app.
    Not an issue system wide as the native video app works. so does air video.
    I have restarted the ipad. also tried updating to latest firmware yesterday but issue persists.
    any assistance appreciated.
    Jago

    Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound. Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

  • Some Apps don't work after an upgrade IOS to 6.1.1

    Description of the problem with my iPhone 4 after an upgrade from iOS 5.1 to 6.1.1:
    Some Apps try to start but stopped immidiatly.
    The issue for my case:
    Try to find your App trough the App Store on your iPhone.
            The status of this App should be open. (but when you try to open it, it won't !!!)
    Use the main button to go back to your App and delete it.
    Go back to Apps Store and reinstall your App.
    Check the progress of the installation.
    When the install is done open your App again and it should be working again.
    Best regards,
    Schotel

    Try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.

  • I deleted some apps in Firefox 4 b2, opened 3.6, closed 3.6 and opened FF 4 again. But now it's presenting a series of very severe problems.

    After doing what I described in the thread title, Firefox 4 presented the following issues:
    1- Tabs would not close.
    2- The "forward" and "back" button would not be lit or clickable, as if I didn't visit any websites. Although pages did load, I could not go back and forth between them via these buttons.
    3- the "feedback" button in the right-hand side of the screen was completely gone. Trying to download the respective feedback app that Mozilla provides didn't work, it wouldn't download.
    4- the App Management screen would not open.
    5- I did not save any of the pages from the previous session. They did appear in Firefox 3.6, wich appears to be functioning normally. The apps I had removed in FF4 were also removed in 3.6.
    So basically my FF 4 got completely messed up. Reinstalling it did nothing. Cleaning the registry with Registry Mechanic was to no avail either. I had to uninstall FF4 since it was unusable.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == When I deleted some apps in FF4, opened 3.6, then opened 4 again

    Your UserAgent string in Firefox is messed up by another program that you installed.
    [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent]
    type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter
    ''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
    Filter = '''general.useragent.'''
    Right-click the preferences that are '''bold''', one line at a time, and select '''''Reset''''',
    Then restart Firefox

  • Office Web Apps issue

    Ive got an issue where Office Web Apps has stopped working if you access Sharepoint via the external url of the Sharepoint site, it works fine internally and externally from Exchange and also internally from Sharepoint.
    As soon as i browse to the external url it fails with "Sorry there was a problem and we cant open this document. If this happens again try opening the document in MS Word" (Same issue with all apart from Excel which shows an IIS config page).
    Ive unregistered and reregisterd OWA in Sharepoint but the same result.
    It may be worth adding that at around the same time the server lads disabled SSL 3.0 on the servers, ive had them change the reg key back to enable it again and tested if it is working but it may have caused some other issue in IIS im unaware of, they also
    did this on exchange but OWA is working fine on this.
    The above issue happens in chrome so im asuming there is come caching going on, in IE i get

  • Some apps crash out when I close their window and switch to the Finder

    It has been doing this since day one.  I'm a college student and bought a laptop to replace another really old mac system, to use as my main system.  The issue I'm noting is that on some apps, if I close out their window and switch to the Finder, by either click on the desktop, or by command tabbing.  The application seems to crash.  I say 'seems' becuase I'm not certain it's crashing.  It does this in Text Edit along with pages.  I'm trying to find out if it's supposed to this or if it's supposed to be a new feature.  There is never a crash log made that I know of, nor a dialog box stating the app crashed.  However, it does this by itself, without my quiting out the app by command q nor file>quit.
    This has been relatively minor and hasn't caused any large problems.  To me it's an annoyance and inconviencning.  Which is why I waited until summer break at school to investigate.  Other classmates with older mac book pros but the same OS version have not had this problem.  Wondering if I have a botched isntall of OS X from the factory.  I've already had it in for service for the motherboard.  The cooling system was not correctly attached to teh CPU at the factory and cooked itself.
    I'm tempted to do a reload of the OS from the diagnostics partition the system came with.  I haven't transferred much of anything from the previous system that this one is replacing.  Now would be an ideal time to do anything of this nature rather than say in the middle of next semester.
    The issue occurs in TextEdit, Pages, and that's it so far.  I really have almost nothing loaded on the system.  I dual boot into another OS for using Maya and other various software apps.  The issue does not occur with Safari nor FireFox nor Preview.  It seems confined to Pages and TextEdit.  It can be extremely annoying however when typing an essay in Pages.  Perhaps it's a feature that was introduced that I can turn off?  Going from a 5 year old Mac Mini to a MBP, LOTS has changed.

    Sorry for taking so long to reply.  It's still doing it.  I'm kind of wondering if something like a preferences file is corrupted, however, I have to do a total system reload to begin with to eliminate any potential corrupt data on the windows 7 install.
    Back story.  When I first got this thing it was running super ridiculously hot.  It's the first laptop I've ever owned however so I had nothign to use for reference.  After about two months of it getting brutally hot, it did a BSOD in the windows 7 install I did via bootcamp.  It never turned back on.  Took it to the Apple store in Novi MI and they stated it somehow ran so brutally hot the CPU did a solder reflow and the whole motherboard shorted out.  Even worse though, I had gotten this hot before rendering stuff in Maya and Vue.  I had done burn in tests when I first received the system, it had passed, or so I thought.  They couldn't even get the system to turn on at the Apple Store.
    The tech at the apple store told me that one of the heat sink pins on the CPU just plan broke off and another wasn't attached correctly.  Essentially the system kept overheating as I was consisently completely maxxing out the system doing CGI test renders for my junior animated short film.  The cooling system was never fully connected at the factory according to the Apple Tech.  I don't know how literate everyone reading this is on computer engineering but, when you overheat an IC, whether it's an ASIC or CPU, they dont' immediately crash, they corrupt data.  To further complicate the mess and increase teh chances of data corruption, with the 4th gen Intel i series CPUs (which the MBP uses), they moved the northbridge directly into the CPU die.  So if teh CPU is overheating, the chances of data corruption inadvertantly go up even higher.  I'm suspecting that happened in the first few days of owning the system but that it was minor at that point.  It can take months for the effects of corrupted data to propagate out and be visible to the user.
    I would assume that they did a diagnostic test on the SSD when it was in for service, to ensure the SSD didn't overheat.  The tech did state that if the drive failed the diagnostics, they would have ot replace the drive and henceforth all my data would be gone.  Not really a way around it.
    Currently under the windows 7 install with Maya and Vue, later iterations of the scene file, from Maya, for my animated short film, have a reproduceable glitch involving a gamma shift and camera selection.  Part of the scene files seem to be corrupt and were saved that way.
    Reloading the OS from the recovery partition did not fix the original problem I've been having that I initially asked for help with.  I'm considering wiping out the recovery partition in addition to reinstalling windows 7 and OS X again, it would be the only way to completely eliminate the possibility of any corrupted data floating around on either partition.  I don't have a way of knowing if corrupted data was written to the SSD beyond the corrupted Maya scene files.  The only way I can be sure that it's 'contained' or eliminated, is if I completely wipe the drive and start from scratch.  Now would be a great time rather than in the middle of working on my senior thesis for my BFA degree.
    I'm wondering if you could point me to documentation showing how to wipe out all the partitions, including the recovery one.  My understanding is that there is a way to do a 'net boot' or 'net recovery' over a broadband connection using Apples servers.  The idea of doing a Live boot from a Ubuntu distro to run fsck is appealing but it would be pointless.  The file system shoul be fine, it's the data the file system points to that I suspect is corrupted at somepoint.  Unless you recommend otherwise and or formatting.
    The overheating also corrupted my journal but there is no way to recover it, I overwrote the earlier file(it looks like uncompiled C++ and jibberished text) when I saved it after completing an entry.  This was many months ago.  Though the idea of attempting a restore with Ubuntu Remix or other recovery Linux distros is appealing I'm doubtful I'd get far, though it's an SSD not a traditional harddrive and they don't work the same.
    Back to the main point though, I suspect the overheating corrupted a prefs file which is causing the glitch I'm seeing, and reloading the OS did not fix it.

  • Some apps won't open after OS X Mavericks update

    After the update to OS X Mavericks, some apps won't open on my macbook pro.  That include things like preview, boot camp assistant, from what I've tried so far. When I click on those from applications menu or from the spotlight search, the icon appear on the dock very briefly(like 1 sec) and nothing happened after that. Based on the internet search, I tried the Disk permissions repair and didn't work. Any suggestions? Thanks

    Hi aung.24,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  I would recommend trying the troubleshooting for "If the issue occurs in various applications, or in Mac OS X" from this article:

  • Looking for some app which send SMS when there is Sim change in Iphone 4 G. Do we have any such software which is free

    looking for some app which send SMS when there is Sim change in Iphone 4 G. Do we have any such software which is free or even paid will work.

    I thought that is what the big deal was that people did not know until they opened the box and started using the iPhone 5, that it not only worked with one carrier but several carriers.  I did not say it will work with any carrier at one time.  I was trying to find out the reason for this and why people were so surprised that the iPhone 5 had this function and the reason for it.  As stated in my post, is it there so that after your contract is up and you want to go to another carrier you do not have to purchase a new iPhone, you  cna purchase a SIM card that works with your new carrier.
    The Otterbox Defender has a tendency to let too much dirt, dust, etc. in the cracks on the case. At least this has been my expereince.  I was thinking something more along some of the really durable cases at BallisticCaseCo.com
    As far as the iPhone 5 having issues, I have heard that there were more than usual with the first couple of manufactured batches that were shipped.  For example the Map App by Apple, the scratches on the backside of hundreds of iPhones, etc.  I am hoping these will get to be less and less, but with the recent riot at the one plant in China where the iPhone 5 is assembled is supposed to increase the waiting time.
