Speakers work for phone and other apps, but not for music playback on 4G after downloading ios 8.0.2

I know others are having off the wall issues with sound on their iPhones after installing the iOS 8.0.2...In my case? Thank God the sound for phone calls and alarms work, but the same can't be said for when I try to play music or a radio app?? And the speaker option on my voice mail sticks....
There are 1001 other issues that I have with this so called upgrade, and let's just say that I've been looking at using my AT&T other phone options since I'm ready to upgrade....Since this is the second time in about a year that I've gone through **** and back with an Apple OS upgrade and there just isn't the cache there once was with owning an iPhone? I'm seriously questioning why be brand loyal when I can't find an answer to my issue and the one solution is to go to the Apple Store and deal with the arrogant and rude clerks OR try and see if someone has a decent solution, OR wait for weeks for Apple to offer a bug fix or access to older OS's!
(BTW--I HATE how this OS kills the battery! And I'm not happy with the 2 apps that I didn't want and can't get rid of!)

I was hoping that the iOS 8.1 update would have fixed my problem, but it has not. The app updates continue to hang and will not up date unless I follow the procedures mentioned earlier. I have spoken to Apple Care, and their only suggestion was to do a network settings reset. This worked once, but on the following days as more app updates appeared, they would not download. Once again, the only way to achieve my goal is to do one of the following;
Change networks
Sync through iTunes
Reset Network Settings
Turn off Wi Fi and use Cellular Data (not my preferred option especially while at home and connected to my home network).
I think Apple are loosing the plot and seem to be chasing profits more than producing a good reliable product. I would have respected the company more if they had admitted that iOS8 was not ready for general release rather than release a faulty system causing so many problems.

    Maybe I understood your problem. Get to Settings > Sounds > Ringers and Alerts >Turn Change With Buttons to Off. And if your Side Switch is assigned to 'Mute', turn it back on, else, use the control center to turn off mute.

  • I can not get Firefox to play music backgrounds on pages in browsers it works in IE and other browsers but not firefox, what HTML or Jave script do I need too use to make them work?

    I'm having a problem with firefox playing background music on some sites, it works with IE and other browsers but not with fire fox, what html or java script do I need to add to the pages so that they play the music?
    I develop my pages in Front Page and I know that the music only works in IE, so if someone can tell me how to correct this problem as it is important as I use fire fox as my main browser.
    I thank you in advance

    If a website uses BGSOUND then it will only work in IE.
    BGSOUND is not compatible with other browsers like Firefox.

  • I can't enter gmail. The error 'The page isn't redirecting properly' shows up. I can access gmail on my phone and with IE, but not firefox.

    I've tried to clear the cache and delete the cookies from gmail, but neither has worked. I can access gmail from my phone and through IE but not firefox. I also use the gmail gadget on my igoogle page and it does not work either.

    Top of your browser click on Firefox, select Options
    Select "Use Custom Setting for History"
    Then click show cookies, then remove All Cookies
    Close browser and restart, should work nicely
    Simple fix (cause of the problem, since you select copy Cookies and History, Favs from Explorer they are clearly not compatible, so that is why you get the error)
    Firefox guys need to fix this is serious challenge for new users.

  • I was updating my software on my iphone 4 and it crashed so it recovered it and i restored it from its back up. However I have lost all my music and my apps but not my pictures. How can i get my music back and apps back?

    Media and apps are not part of the backup. They need to be re-synced from your itunes library or re-downloaded from the store.

    I buy for mac app but not for the iPad, so how do I reinstall a program that has already purchased? I need help because I bought the imovie'11 but when he opened it only brought 8 movie trailer templates instead of the 15 it says on the program. How do I solve this problem? Once paid for a program incomplete. I also liked that the AppStore itself had a button to reinstall programs already bought, because it is very hard to understand how to do this in the store, only option is to install and hide purchase, and how do I reinstall, attention'm talking about reinstalling a computer mac, not an ipad or iphone.
    Thank you.

    Prodesigntools.com , go ahead and download the software from there and use your serial number to serialize it.

  • Why subtle animation for phone calls (other apps do) on iOS 5 won't work on iPhone4?

    So my problem is that each time im driving; perse using a GPS turn by turn app, and someone calls, iOS5 should have a subtle animation for calls right? well thats not for me, i still get that crappy push huge bubble which kills the app being used. I already tried going to setting-notifications-phone, and changed none/banners/alerts but nothing happens, still having the same problem!
    Can someone come with a solution!?
    PS I'm on iPhone 4 iOS 5.0; I'll never believe Scott Fostall again http://www.apple.com/ios/features.html#notification

  • I have an iphone 5 with ios 6. I am trying to setup a new exchange email account. I need the backslash but it is not available. I can find it on other apps but not when trying to set up the mail account. (it is not on the  keyboard)

    I have an iphone 4s with ios 6. I am trying to setup a new exchange email account. I need the back slash but it does not show up on the keyboard. I know it is supposed to be on the +key (and is for other apps) but for some reason it is not available when setting up an email account. Is this on purpose or am I doing something wrong?

    I can tell you that with Sprint their coverage area isn't as good as Verizon or AT&T.
    Are you sending these imessage while on wifi or cellular data?  Also your husband would need to be in a good coverage area.
    Usually when imessage is unavailable it will send it as a text.  Does your husband receive your imessage as a text?

  • Help! iPhone 5 works with iCloud for Contacts and Photo Stream, but Not Music!

    Okay, totally stumped! I have an iPhone 5, which, new, I restored from wife's iPhone 4 backup, remotely (3 Months ago). I just signed into our family Apple ID, chose the most recent backup, and did a restore. So, contacts, and photos and Apps backup to the cloud instantly, which is shared on all devices. Likewise, when my wife takes a phone picture, I can see it in the stream: all without doing an iTunes Sync. My phone's settings have my number associated with my contact card, so the phone doesn't "think" it is my wife's phone.
    The dilemna: iCloud won't send my phone new music purchases from our iMac, or iPad. My phone has it's own physical identity on Find My iPhone, but interestingly, it does not appear in the list of devices, in the "Manage my Devices" section when I am signed into iTunes with my Apple ID. Furthermore, even though I have the phone settings to Sync with iTunes wirelessly, when plugged into AC power, with iTunes on, the iPhone 5 does initiate backups with iTunes; even after rebooting iTunes. My phone does not appear in the list of devices for iTunes, AND the only way I can sync with my computer is with the USB/Lightning cable. Even then, I do not get music purchases to load onto my iPhone which i have bought on my computer.
    Currently running Mac OSX 10.7.5 on my iMac and IOS 6.1 on my iPhone5.
    Appreciate any help,
    THANKS      

    The way I do that is to organize them on my computer. I periodically import all of the Camera Roll to the computer. That is a good thing to do to insure you have a copy in case of loss of the phone or other problem, even if you backup the phone. Import can be done by methods described in iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    Once they are on the computer I organize them in iPhoto on my Mac. If you have a Windows computer you can organize them in folders. Once they are on the computer I delete them all from the Camera Roll on the phone to make it easier next time -- i.e., the Camera Roll always only contains the photos that I haven't yet organized.
    I only want some of the pictures that I am keeping to be sent back to the phone, so in Windows I made a second copy of those (in iPhoto on a Mac I use Albums instead). I had a main folder (e.g. "Photos for iPhone") and subfolders (only 1 level below the main folder) with various topics. Then use iTunes to sync the photos back to the phone (selecting the main folder). iTunes: Syncing photos
    The end result is that they are organized in Albums on the phone, are not in the Camera Roll, and I have a copy of them on my computer.

  • IPad won't play sound with video? Will play music and radio apps, but not if there is a video component. Same for my iTunes movies.

    Help! My iPad won't play any audio when there is a video component to an app or game.   It will play my music and I can see the video on my movies, but not the movie sound.   Turning off and turning it on again worked as a temporary fix once, but now that is not working either.   Been going on for an week or two?

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

  • WMI filter working for some Windows 7 machines but not for others

    I'm trying to use this WMI filter for our Windows 7 64bit machines:
    select * from Win32_OperatingSystem where (Caption like "Microsoft Windows 7%") or (Version like "6.1%" and ProductType = "1" and OSArchitecture = "64 ビット") or (OSArchitecture like "64%" and ProductType =
    "1")
    The reason there are three clauses is that we have machines in United States, Japan, and France. The first clause works for the United States, the second clause works for Japan, and the third clause SHOULD work for France, but doesn't.
    I've run the query manually on the French machine using WMITest.exe (http://www.paessler.com/tools/wmitester) and it works. However, when I run a gpresult /r it shows that the GPO is denied
    due to the WMI filter.
    Why is this happening for French computers only?

    Why is this happening for French computers only?
    just a thought - is it due to localisation of the OS (fr-FR), and maybe the WMITest.exe is not honouring that?
    maybe, on a French OS, open CMD, run wmic os get osarchitecture   ??
    get somebody to give you a screengrab of that - just in case there's something funky going on.
    (I don't work with multiple languages, so am not sure if localisation can cause your issue, but from your Japan example it looks like it might do so)

  • Folder redirection doesn't work in DOS and other apps

    We are redirecting my documents and some other locations.
    If I open a dos window and cd c:\users\username\documents it does to a local directory not the redirected location. I can browse that same path in explorer. it seems to only be when I use the library and shortcuts in a "open" dialog that I see the folder redirection location.
    A new application we are using saves the config file to "my docs\application\session"
    I've saved the config file to the redirect my docs\application\session, but the application doesn't pull up with the config. I'm guessing its not using the correct environment variable to look for the config file. What is the correct environment variable that would recognize redirected folders?
    thanks,jb

    I'm having the same problem. It just started yesterday. My top row buttons were not working in SMS and Loopt. I did a reset. I did a restore. I removed all applications and restored to original factory settings and did not put my backed up information back on- still he same issue. The "messages" and "clear" buttons do not respond in SMS, but the screen responds in that location in all other applications and on the home screen. It definitely seems to be a software issue and not the screen itself.
