Touch ID doesn't work after iOS 7.1 Update

After installing iOS 7.1 Touch ID stopped working. When I put my finger on the sensor nothing happens.
I already tried rebooting and switching Touch ID on and off. None of that seemed to work. Is there anyone else experiencing similar problems?
Update: Right now I'm trying to set up a new fingerbrint but it doesnt even start scanning when I put my finger on. It just doesnt do anything. I have a feeling that the sensor might be broken...

Same problem, after upgrading to 7.1 touch ID stopped working and will not let me enter new fingers, acts like I am not touching the sensor.
Additional info:
The company I work for requires passwords to be on to access mail, when I am at work I will try deleting that mail account and turning off password requirements. It is an Microsoft Exchange mail server.
Additional info2:
In Xcode there are no messages in the console for the iPhone that are related. Unrelated messages do pop up confirming the log is active.
Is there a setting I can make to turn on more logging?

    Touch id doesn't work after ios 7.1.1 update..
    Why????

    After IOS update, you first have to use passcode.
    Passcode is needed when
    After restarting your iPhone 5s
    When more than 48 hours have elapsed from the last time you unlocked your iPhone 5s
    To enter the Touch ID & Passcode setting

  • Safari doesn't work after iOS 8.3 update

    After the iOS 8.3 update, Safari is completely useless. I am unable to open any URLs or search. Nothing happens when I type and return in the search bar. Sometimes even the go button doesn't highlight/activate.
    I tried removing cache and disabling iCloud, but nothing worked.
    Does anyone have a solution?

    Replying to my own message.   I actually looked at the device logs again there is a bunch of mobile safari issues.   Most of which apple would have to symbolicate against their source to figure out the actual bug.  
    Looks like some deadlock issues, which explains what I am seeing.
    Here is segment of one of the crash logs:

  • Wake up doesn't work After IOS 7 with my Philips clock radio AJ3270D

    Wake up doesn't work After IOS 7 with my Philips clock radio AJ3270D!
    The other function is OK(listen music like an Ipod or charge)
    Can you help me?

    Apple did update their help section on the app. I found this trying to figure out why my Find Friends wasn't working after the update to iOS 7. 
    "Find My Friends is turned on in Background App Refresh (in Settings > General in iOS 7). When Background App Refresh is turned off, Find My Friends can’t use Location Services in the background. If Background App Refresh is turned on, but you quit Find My Friends via the multitasking interface, location updates won’t be sent to your friends until you open the app again."
    Hopefully Apple will update this as it was not this way prior to iOS 7. Killing the app didn't prevent your location from updating in iOS 6 as I constantly killed the apps running in the background and never had this problem till the update. Hope this helps! Just make sure to not kill the app as of now and to tell everyone you follow not to kill their app and locations will continue to refresh. Otherwise it won't update locations till the app is opened again.

  • 3rd gen iPod Touch touch screen doesn't work after I updated to iOS 5.1?

    I updated to iOS 5.1, and now my touch screen doesnt work at all. All of the buttons work, and it responds, but nothing else works. I would restore it but it's locked with a passcode and I can't unlock it without the touchscreen.....I have no idea whether this is a failure is 5.1, or if it's something I did.

    Try a hard reset first to see if that does any good.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If no luck with that, you'll need to manually connect your iPod to your iTUnes library in recovery mode using the instructions in the Apple support document below. Doing so will allow you to bypass the passcode and restore the iPod.
    iOS: Unable to update or restore

  • Touch screen doesn't work after resetting the phone. Could the screen be locked?

    After following the previous  touch screen not working message, I reset the phone but still doesn't work.  Could there be a screen lock?  Or any other way for the touch screen to work?

        Hi there Angelicness3011!
    The touch screen responding correctly is pretty important for you to even use your phone! I'm sorry to learn you've been having issues with it. Let's review some options together!
    You mentioned you reset the phone. Does this mean you removed the battery & put it back in? Or does this mean you able to complete an actual Hard Reset?
    Instructions on a Hard Reset can be found here: http://bit.ly/Q00sJ9
    Your information is generally backed up to Google or Backup Assistant and your SD Card. If possible, please sign in to double check.
    If you're unable to hard reset and removing the battery doesn't resolve the concerns we may have to look in to replacement. Does your phone have any physical or liquid damage? How long have you had your phone? Do you have insurance?
    I look forward to your responses!

  • Sound doesn't work after iOS 6 iPad 3

    I had my Ipad 3 for about a month or two and it has been working flawlessly, but when I updated the os to iOS 6 the sound has stopped working.
    Every time I restart the ipad makes the unlocking sound once but after that no more sound will come out. Even when I type it doesn't make a sound.
    Also when I double tap the home button and go the brightness and music area there is no circle thing on the slider for the music part.
    A few quick things worth mentioning, when I use my headphones I can hear the sound also Siri makes all the noises and can talk using the built in speakers.

    I have also had this problem with my iPad 2. I actually spoke to folks on Apple Tech support and sent it in. The verdict? They admitted that it was a problem that others were experiencing as well, but they wouldn't diagnose MY iPad because I had a "cosmetic defect" on it and unless I wanted to shell out a few hundred bucks to get it fixed first, they wouldn't look at it, even though they also admitted that the sound problem had nothing to do with the cosmetic flaw.
    I'd even buy that the cosmetic flaw had something to do with the problem had the speakers just died completely, but they don't! Sound on apps and video goes out intermittently and then comes back for no apparent reason; I can't duplicate the issue. Have done hard reset, restore, MANY TIMES. Keeps happening. AM running the latest software version. The volume slider just disappears completely from the screen but when I go into settings and adjust the volume, I can hear the ringtone volume. So the speaker works! I assume this is a major software issue.
    Hey, Apple, you listening? Others have the problem and you know it. In my case, I think you just used a loophole to be a jerk and get around fixing my iPad. How about a software update?
    Also, my iPad was less than a year old but by the time they fix this, it will probably be past the one year warranty mark. How convenient.

  • Touch screen doesn't work after Vista Home64-bit upgrade to Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium on IQ506

    Hello, right before I upgraded to Win7, I made sure that the Touchsmart software worked and that the touch screen itself worked. As soon as I performed the upgrade (not the clean upgrade that wipes all your existing data, but rather the upgrade that carries over your applications and files), the touch screen ceased to work. 
    I didn't panic, thinking that I probably had to run some windows/hp updates, which I did to no avail. I also manually updated ALL the driver/software files found at this link http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=4063&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us〈=en&product=3752245
    Yup, every single one. As a last resort, I tried some of the HP troubleshooting for touch screens not working. It said to shut down the computer, pull the plug on the computer, hold the power button for 5 seconds, plug the computer back in, and boot it up again. Didn't help at all.
    I'm at the end of my rope and there is no additional HP support on this. I'm waiting for a reliable driver update for win7 for this **bleep** touch screen. I'm dead in the water -- I've got a touchscreen computer whose touchscreen doesn't work! Someone else out there must be having this problem! Any leads?

    Did you try installing the Touch Driver?

  • HT204407 Find my Friends doesn't work after IOS 7 update

    We use find my friends for our entire family to monitor kids locations, etc.  Since updating to IOS 7, one of the phones only shows it's location sporadically - otherwise says location not available.
    Have verified location services are turned on, nothing is blocked, etc.
    This phone was updated to IOS 7 over wifi (vs. through iTunes) - one other phone had some minor (unrelated) issues after updating over wifi that were resolved by doing a factory reset & updating from iTunes - wondering if that could be cause of the issue here as well.  Anyone else encountering issues with FMF?

    Apple did update their help section on the app. I found this trying to figure out why my Find Friends wasn't working after the update to iOS 7. 
    "Find My Friends is turned on in Background App Refresh (in Settings > General in iOS 7). When Background App Refresh is turned off, Find My Friends can’t use Location Services in the background. If Background App Refresh is turned on, but you quit Find My Friends via the multitasking interface, location updates won’t be sent to your friends until you open the app again."
    Hopefully Apple will update this as it was not this way prior to iOS 7. Killing the app didn't prevent your location from updating in iOS 6 as I constantly killed the apps running in the background and never had this problem till the update. Hope this helps! Just make sure to not kill the app as of now and to tell everyone you follow not to kill their app and locations will continue to refresh. Otherwise it won't update locations till the app is opened again.

  • My iPhone 4 cellular communication stopped working after iOS 6.1 update

    My iPhone 4 What's working pretty fine before updating from iOS 6.01 to 6.1.
    Now it stays searching endlessly for network without success.
    I have tried first to restore iPhone
    Then a restore from backup
    Then a new restore from factory settings
    The problem to find network remains.
    My iPhone 4 was bought originally unlocked from an Apple store so it can work anywhere around the world.
    It was working pretty well under iOS 6.01 in Brazil and after update it doesn't work anymore.
    Any clue of what is happening?
    Thanks,
    Fernando

  • Exchange email will not work after IOS 5.1 update. Anyone else having same problem. Its been three days now I cannot get mail.

    Exchange Email not working on Iphone 4S is anyone else having the same problem and is there a fix for this?

    @ w3nitro
    I'm having the same issues, except only one of my Exchange accounts took a dive after upgrading to iOS 5.1.  My Gmail account (set up as Exchange) works flawlessly but my native Exchange account (work e-mail) stopped working after the update.
    Post update to 5.1:  (work Exchange account) I could view my inbox and view individuals emails in the inbox, but I was unable to send any emails.  Mail started asking for my password after the update (for the affected Exchange account) but once entered, it failed to verify.
    I completley removed the Exchange account and rentered all the account settings but again, failure to verify any information.  I was hoping my password might have changed but it did not.  Also, maybe the IT guy at the office (not very bright) changed some settings but the only difference is the new iOS update.
    And while playing with the iPhone trying to make it work again, I noticed something really weird.  Old emails (2-3 weeks) from multiple email accounts to include the inop Exchange account started showing up again on the pull down notification menu.  I would clear these out of the notificaion menu but they always kept reapearing; very strange.
