The time keeps changing on my iPhone 5C even though I've manually set it. Help!

I've been having trouble since yesterday where the screen was just black as if it was switched off. I couldnt unlock the phone or see the screen at all but I could only hear the phone when it rings but the screen remained black.
I restarted the phone by pressing on the main button and off button for 20 seconds and it came on. Since then the time has been off be an hour no matter how i try to fix it manually. I was even late for work this morning because of it and I need a solution ASAP
please help

Hello LaylaAlHajeri,
It sounds like you the time is acting unexpectedly on your iPhone. I recommend starting by closing all the open apps on your device:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that and restart the phone and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If it persists, I would next try the steps in the article named:
iOS: Troubleshooting issues with date and time
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3920
Follow these steps. Test after each step to see if the issue is resolved.
Ensure that the version of iOS on your device is up to date.
If the option to enable date and time automatically is available, turn it on. Tap Settings > General > Date & Time.
Ensure that your time zone is set up correctly. Tap Settings > General > Date & Time > Time Zone.
If the incorrect date, time, or time zone is being set up automatically on the device, please notify your cellular provider. In the meantime, tap General > Date & Time and turn off Set Automatically. Then set the appropriate time and time zone manually.
Note: The option to set automatically might not be available on all carriers in all countries.
Additional Information
Note: If you find that your device's time is incorrect after you sync with your computer, your computer's time may be incorrect. Verify the computer's time in System Preferences > Date & Time (you may want to select the checkbox to set the computer's date and time automatically).
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Regards,
Sterling

  • HT3204 I have updated iTunes and now it will not recognise my iPhone 4 even though Windows 8 recognises it? HELP

    How do I get my updated iTunes to recognise my iPhone as it did before?

    I spent last week looking for a solution to that little yellow "!" needle haystack....
    It is probably buried where nothing can touch or change it other than what I resorted to and would have saved time, clean install after I made sure to have two backup sets: Windows Easy Transfer plus Paragon clone OS and partitions to drive. Had to spend a full day reinstalling, updates, etc. Careful not to bring back any prefs or data that might be corrupt or wrong.
    10.5 and iOS 5 on new iPod 4G works much better though and as they should and no issues like I had with AMS or other services or needing to restart first before launching iTunes.

  • I just switched from iPhone 5 to Samsung Note 3.  I'm not getting my text messages from other iPhone users even though I shut off iMessage.  Help!

    Please help.

    Follow the instructions here, http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5185 up to and including the last one if necessary which is to contact Apple Care.

  • After hard reset my time capsule is not found in airport even though its light is green so cannot reset

    After hard reset the time capsule is not found in airport even though i have reconnected in proper order - says backup disc not found

    Something is wrong because a hard reset will never leave the TC with green LED.
    What version TC.. what firmware??
    What OS on the computer?

  • TS2784 I have set my iphone5 time settings to automatic New York time. Throughout the day the clock keeps changing times on its own by hours. Sometimes in is correct. Sometimes it is wrong.

    I have set my iphone5 time settings to automatic at New York time. Throughout the day the date and time on the phone keeps changing on its own and often by a few hours. Sometimes it goes to the correct time. Sometimes it is way out. Is there something wrong with my settings?

    This is a known issue with the iPhone 5. Turn off the automatic time setting for the time being. It will most likely be corrected in an upcoming update to iOS if the tech press is to be believed.

  • Can you change the time gap in songs with iPhone

    I really want to change the time gap in between each I my songs on my iPhone 4 but I don't know if I can or even how so if anyone can help :)

    What "once a day" really means is "every twenty four hours starting from the last time they were updated". Just manually update them tomorrow morning and you should find that the time has changed.

  • "Budget Exceeded" error not appearing at the time of changing PR but appearing at the time of PO change.

    Dear All,
    At the time of PR value change after creation of PO budget exceeded error is not appearing even though the PR value exceeds the budget. But at the time of changing the same value in PO, budget exceeded error is appearing.
    List of steps:
    PR created.
    PR released
    PO created with reference to PR and released.
    PR value changed to a value more than the available budget - No budget exceeded error.
    PO value changed in accordance with the PR - System throwing the budget exceeded error.
    Now the issue is why the system bypassed the budget exceeded error at the time of PR value change and only giving the error at the time of PO value change. Also, we observed that while changing the quantity in PR which results in exceeding budget, system is giving the error. But while changing the value system is not giving the budget exceeded error.
    Your inputs will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Hello Saurabh,
    Thank you for your inputs. Below is the output of CJI5.
    Ref,Doc Category  Debit Date     Oty       Object    Cost Elem.   Val/CO Area Crcy   Total Qty.     UM
    PREQ                  28.05.2014    WBS     XXXXXX    XXXXXX           0.00                         0            EA

    From the above output i think system is not capturing the PR commitment. I'm not sure as i'm basically into MM and  dont know much about PS.
    Why the system is stopping with budget exceeded error at the time of PR creation and not giving any error while changing the PR value after PO creation. System is giving budget exceeded error if quantity is changed in PR. Please explain the standard system behavior and suggest how to enable control at the time of PR value change.
    Thanks in advance.

  • WRT54G the SSID keeps changing on it's own

    WRT54G the SSID keeps changing on it's own every few days on my secure network then I need reset the SSID and Key again

    It would help to know how the SSID changes exactly, i.e. what SSID you have set up and to what it changes.
    Does you router have a secure easy setup button? On the latest WRT54G models it should be a button with a Cisco logo. Do you or anyone press that button?

  • Artists showing up as Various artists when I sync music with my iPhone 4S, even though in iTunes the song tags have been changed

    My artists are showing up as Various artists when I sync music with my iPhone 4S, even though in iTunes the song tags have been changed.
    Am I missing something?
    For example, I have 3 songs that are part of a compilation CD. I've change them to no longer being part of a compilation, and changes all of the tags of Arist and Album artist to the artists name, however they still show up as 'Various Artists' on my iPhone.
    Any ideas?

    You may find you need to remove the songs and then add them back again.

  • Macbook shuts off and when I restart it the time is changed? Have I been Hacked?

    macbook shuts off and when I restart it the time is changed? Have I been Hacked?
    I am concerned that someone is going to steal my identiy and will in incurr 12 years of bad credit?  I have just installed mountan lion and am unsure if this problem was caused by this? I suspect that if there was someone, or a program was  trying to remotely access my computer then there would be traces of their actions.

    How old is your macbook, and what condition is your battery in?
    I doubt you're being hacked - more like your battery is dead.
    Try doing both PRAM and SMC resets, setting the system time and seeing if they hold. Ensure you are connected to a power source.

    In Illustrator, I have a saved artwork, then I'm saving a copy as PDF, as usual.
    After I keep the AI file open, making some modifications which I don't want to save, so I close the file and click "Don't Save".
    Even though I clicked that, the file's modification time is changing.
    (The modifications I made are not there, so it's not really saving but why the date is changing then?)
    Please find the cause of it! Thank you!

    All I can suggest is that you open that file on the MBA and save it as a new file, then see if you can open the new one on the iMac.

  • I am trying to set up the ipod to my email account and it keeps saying it won't work, even though we have confirmed user name and password.  Any advice?

    i am trying to set up the ipod to my email account and it keeps saying it won't work, even though we have confirmed user name and password.  Any advice?

    Try deleting the account from the iPod and try reentring all the information again.  A lot of times it is easier to reenter the information rather than trying to find and correct the error.
    Try Googling for how to setup the email account for your provider on an iPhone.  You can try for an iPod Touch but frequently that does not exist.
