Still no lyrics with iOS 5.1.1!!!

Latest update to iOS 5.1.1 and still cannot display lyrics in the music app for the iPad.
You can display lyrics on the iPod and you can display/edit lyrics in iTunes so it's not a matter of copyright or ability.
I've submitted NUMEROUS feedback forms that displaying the lyrics needs to be restored for the iPad but typical to Apple arrogance -- the consumer comes last.
I've had to use a laptop in order to display lyrics when I need them.
If the functionality wasn't already there in iOS 4 then I wouldn't be upset but to have Apple remove the functionality -- AND not give an explantion for doing so OR restore the functionality -- just proves that the consumer is an afterthought.
Purchasing an app to provide functionality that was already there is not fair to the consumers either.
If I had the opportunity to return the iPad I would but it was a gift and it was custom engraved so that option is not available to me.

Jacko gets it. Ward4 doesn't.
I'm not asking for new functionality... I want EXISTING FUNCTIONALITY restored.
The simple fact that, apparently, iPhone/iPod users can display lyrics but iPad users cannot -- WITH THE SAME OPERATING SYSTEM -- is what is so frustrating.
It astounds me to listen to Apple Fanboys say, "... check the app store for..."
I don't care if another player in the app store is free and displays lyrics. It's about Apple taking the ability out of the end-users hands.
I'm going to bring up two earlier points AGAIN:
1. Purchasing an app to provide functionality that was already there is not fair to the consumers either.
2. If I had the opportunity to return the iPad I would but it was a gift and it was custom engraved so that option is not available to me.
I have convinced many of my customers to not purchase Apple products based on this very example of Apple's disregard for the end-users. A consumer can deal with this type of treatment but a business cannot.

  • Can you still get phones with iOS 6

    I want a phone with iOS 6

    Maybe.
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • Bluetooth in Subaru still not working with ios update

    Bluetooth is still not working in my Subaru with my iphone 6.  I've updated the iOS to 8.1, done most of the suggested tips I've read on line and my phone will still not find my car's (or my plantronic headset).  Bluetooth does work with my jawbone speaker, but that's it.  I'm looking for any new suggestions. Thanks

    I just sold my Motorola RF-850 that was hooked up to my GTO today because it wasn't working with my IPhone.
    I can't believe you paid for the Holden one.
    Anyway good luck.

  • Still tethering issues with iOS 6.1.4

    Hi
    I have an Iphone 5 and recently upgraded to iOS 6.1.4 and running latest itunes
    I used to be able to tether my Android tablet (ASUS) to my Iphone when travelling on the train to work but now it is impossible.
    I can connect my partner's Samsung phone to my Android but cannot use my Iphone to tether to the Android.
    Cannot use bluetooth to tether either.
    So Apple, given everyone is complaining about tethering with their Iphones what are you going to do about it????
    You need to pick up your act otherwise we will go to Android phones and you will lose significant market share.
    I used to love my Iphone and upgraded to the Iphone 5 but seriously considering ditching it now if there is no prompt response from Apple to fix this bug.

    We are not apple here and you do not address apple.  We are users just like you, after all this is a user forum. My guess is that what you are wishing to do is not provided for by the bluetooth profiles available for the phone.  If you don't like the phone get a different one.... it is your choice

  • Does the iPad come preloaded with iOS 5?

    I'am wondering if the iPad 2 comes preloaded with iOS 5

    I'm not sure whether they've started to yet, but they will be - there may still be some with iOS 4 on them. If it's not re-installed then you can update to it for free.

  • Why there is no lyrics on the iPad with ios 5.0.1?

    I want to know why there is no lyrics in iPod app on iPad 2 with iOS 5.0.1 . Help me, I want lyrics ! :)

    Guillaume, I have spoken with AppleCare several times about this. None of the five tech people I've discussed this with had ever heard of the issue before and assumed it was a problem I was having with my device, but when I told them to google "iPad no lyrics" they did see the discussions on the topic. I also had to keep stressing with everyone I talked to that the lyrics were still present on iPods and iPhones with the same upgrade, but no iPads displayed them now.
    The last person I spoke with (yesterday) connected me with a senior advisor named Matt who did some research. When he checked he saw that it had definitely been reported numerous times; the engineers are aware of the issue because there are escalated tickets concerning it, but there is no official response yet. He said that Apple typically doesn't take features away - it adds them - so it was probably an error which will be fixed in a subsequent upgrade.

    You have to hook it up to a computer and update it to ios 5 and then there will be a "software update" button.

  • I had already update mi new factory unlocked iPhone 4S to iOS 5.1.1 and I still having problems with "invalid sim". I'm from Argentina and here we don't have official service. PLEASE HELP ME, WHAT CAN I DO??? In Argentina is too expensive an iPhone 4S.

PLEASE HELP ME, WHAT CAN I DO??? In Argentina is too expensive an iPhone 4S. Please I need help to continue believing in Apple. Thanks a lot. If anybody speak spanish better.  

    Was it purchased from an official Apple Store, not a reseller?  Only Apple Stores sell official factory unlocked phones.  The others sell hacked to unlock phones, and the unlocking is unstable.
    Try these steps, as needed:
    1. Reset phone - press both home and on/off buttons for at least 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
    2. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    3. Replace SIM card (and reset network settings again)
    4. Restore Phone in iTunes using a backup
    5. Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup

  • TS1398 Still having problems with my ipad wifi connection since upgrading to IOS 6.  Can Apple do something about it the soonest possible time.  I don't have this kind of problem using IOS 5.1.1 Can you at least put back the 5.1.1 if you cant find a solut

    So disappointed with IOS 6.  I'm having weak wifi connection since upgrading to it.  Can Apple do something about it? Can you at least reset it to IOS 5.1.1?

    Sorry Jim for the wrong question because I'm getting frustated with my IPAD since I can't use it for surfing internet with a faster speed.  Ipad was very convenient to use until this IOS 6 upgrade.  Tried all the suggestions in the forums but still gets back to weak wifi connection.

  • I am still using my Apple G4 1.25 Ghz MDD running Leopard 10.5.8 with iTunes 10.6.3 installed. Can I use an Phone 4s with iOS 5 with this set up? I have read the iPhone iOS 5 user guide and it appears that I can but is anybody actually doing it ?

    Hello to all my readers.I am still using my Apple G4 1.25 Ghz MDD running Leopard 10.5.8 with iTunes 10.6.3 installed. Can I use an Phone 4s with iOS 5 with this set up? I have read the iPhone iOS 5 user guide and it appears that I can but is anybody actually doing it ? My current phone is a £10 Nokia and I've neither wish nor cash to spend more than a grand upgrading to an intel based machine (at the moment) ! Regards to you all.

    If you can find an iPhone running iOS5 and those are the specs for iOS5, there is no reason it should not work.
    If you want a more current version of iOS or a more current device, a Windows computer is always an option at significantly less cost. 
    Granted, there is no requirement to have a computer to use an iPhone.

  • 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.

    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

  • HELP!!!! I still can't sync music to my iphone 6 with ios 8.1

    I still can't sync music to my iphone 6 with ios 8.1. I have tried all the options suggested on various posts, and searched the internet, but since getting the iPhone 6, and updating to iois 8.1 today, I STILL cant get music from my macbook pro on to my phone, and its driving me mad.
    Im using a MacBook Pro 2GHz Intel Core Duo, so quite an old mac, and iTunes 11.4. PLEASE HELP ANYONE!!!!

    I've tried turning off and turning back in sync music, tried manually installing music. Re-installing the ios, resetting the network prefs etc. Some others had this problem when ios8 first came out. I tried all the 'tricks' they tried..... but there's worked whereas mine didn't.

  • My iPhone with 40 or so percent randomly shuts down with iOS 7 and 6. Often with the camera app stating the phone is out of battery.  Moments later I turn it back on and the same battery life still appears.

    My iPhone with 40 or so percent randomly shuts down with iOS 7 and 6. Often with the camera app stating the phone is out of battery.  Moments later I turn it back on and the same battery life still appears.  It sometimes happens over and over until I leave it alone for a while (still not charging), and then it works.

    I think you might get a new phone instead of repairing it as it takes time and you said the repairing center is far from your living place

    please show me how to do it if still posible.
    thx so much

    No, restoring the phone will install the latest iOS version.
    If you go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings, the phone will revert to its fresh out of the box state, but iOS will not be reloaded - you'll still have iOS 6. See if the problem is fixed, and if it is, load your data back manually.
