Trouble with Voicmail, Iphone 4 with sprint!
When I try to delete my voicemails they keep returning. I have reset to factory settings and that did not help. I have also tried calling my voicemail and it says that the messages are not available. I can not get any new voicemails due to my box being full! Please, any help would be appreciated!!
For anyone else looking at this and similar postings - turning your phone off and on (hard off, not just to sleep) will eventually bring up the voicemail. This problem began when iOS 5.1 was rolled out, but I find it hard to believe this is an Apple problem, since it's only happening on Sprint.
I'm getting really tired of it too; been a Sprint customer since 1998 but this is the last straw, if they don't fix it I'm switching, even if it means breaking my contract. The slow download speeds are one thing, but tapping to hear voicemail has been a basic feature of phones for a decade. No reason this shouldn't work now.

How do I unlock an iphone 5 with Sprint 15.1 at IOS 7.0.6 IMEI 99 000320 012095 0 .
The SIM is in and Sprint gave me the unlock code, but what are the steps to unlock it?There is no such thing as an unlock code. Sprint may have processed the unlock, and then requested you restore the iPhone using iTunes to complete it. But that's it. There is no code to enter, and nowhere to enter it any way.

I am having trouble with app updates on my iOS 5 iPhone never getting beyond the "waiting" state.
I am having trouble with app updates on my iOS 5 iPhone never getting beyond the "waiting" state. I have tried signing out/in of my account, rebooting and removing/re-installing the apps. This started shortly after going to iOS 5 but I am not certain if that is related. All updates that I try now are stuck in "waiting". I also tried removing the apps and then installing via iTunes desktop sync with no improvement. The only thing that I have not tried so far is a restore to a prior iPhone backup. I have not been able to find anything to indciate what the updates on waiting on. There is plenty of space on the iPhone (16gb available). Any suggestions on what to try next?
Hello there, Missy.
First thing I would recommend is to check your downloads queue to make sure there is not an interrupted download per the following Knowledge Base article:
iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
1. From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
2. For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
3. Enter your account name and password if prompted.
4. Tap the blue download arrow to resume.
If you can't complete the download on your iOS device, you can download it in iTunes on your Mac or PC and then sync it to your iOS device. You can also transfer purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer.
For Apps, you can also try tapping on the application icon to resume the download, as outline in this featured discussion:
App updates won't download on my...: Apple Support Communities
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4111336
Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
Make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the App Store or iTunes Store.
If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.

IMessage trouble with two iPhones and one Apple ID
Hi,
I'm having trouble with iMessage after updating both of my iPhones to iOS 6 and not being able to use iMessage with one of the phones.
Some background:
-I have two iPhones, one on AT&T in the U.S., and one on NTT DoCoMo in Japan, both with separate phone numbers, using the same Apple ID.
-The AT&T iPhone is a 4, the NTT is an unlocked 4S.
On my 4 (AT&T), on iMessage, I have the option to send/receive as my U.S. phone number and my Apple ID. Works just like before updating.
On my 4S (NTT), on iMessage, before I updated, I was able to send/receive using my Japanese number and Apple ID. After updating, I have the option to send/receive using my U.S. number and Apple ID. My Japanese number is greyed out and I cannot select it. When I turn on iMessage, it says "Waiting for activation..." and does not do anything. Turning iMessage off and on, some times I get an error message staying that activation cannot be completed.
I have rebooted the phone multiple times, turned on/off iMessage and FaceTime, turned the Set Date & Time Automatically option on/off, and reset Network settings several times. Nothing works; iMessage will not activate on my NTT 4S. Please help!Finally resolved this issue after months of off and on troubleshooting.
I have no idea exactly which steps "fixed" the issue, but here's what I did. None of the basic troubleshooting steps that are on here worked for me, and this is including restoring both phones in iTunes as a "last resort" step that two Apple technical service representatives suggested.
I found a post on here from user "tungddao" who suggested:
"Turn on iMessage then make a phone call to : 011+445773142076
With Facetime & Siri: 011+447786205094"
I called both numbers with my NTT 4S, and both numbers hung up right away. I also texted both numbers, and the FaceTime one went through, while the iMessage number did not. I then checked my SMS blocking settings with NTT. There were no blocks, but I reset the settings to "unblock all" anyway.
I was able to activate iMessage and FaceTime with my Apple ID and my NTT phone number. Halfway there.
I then turned on my ATT 4, and while I could send/receive using my Apple ID and NTT phone number, the ATT number was greyed out, which was the opposite of what had happened before, when I could use the ATT number, but not the NTT one. On my NTT 4S, I could select my ATT number, but it was stuck on "verifying" for days, and I knew it wouldn't go through.
So, I signed out of my Apple ID on iMessage and FaceTime on my ATT 4, and turned both services off. I turned on data roaming, and turned off WiFi. *This step was key to activating both services, as they would not activate over WiFi for some reason.
I turned on iMessage and FaceTime without signing in to my Apple ID just yet. They both activated successfully, and then I signed into my Apple ID on both services, and from then on, I can use both numbers and my Apple ID on both phones! Finally!
These are my current options:
Phone 1 (4S on NTT): Phone 1's #, Phone 2's #, Apple ID
Phone 2 (4 on ATT, roaming here in Japan on Softbank): Phone 2's #, Phone 1's #, Apple ID
Hope this helps someone out there, as this issue was real frustrating for me. -
Just bought a new iPhone and am having trouble with iTunes and App Store. I can log in to Cloud, iTunes, and app store but once I try to download, it says "Youe apple id has been disabled". I've reset my password three times and have no issue on my Pad.

I'm having trouble with my Apple ID. I changed my email account, and recently (a month ago) and since I switched is requested every time I open any app to Apple ID password to the old email. How can I solve this? Could it be that my iPhone 4S is in sync with my Ipod???
If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPhone by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPhone. If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

i got apple care + a few days ago with a iphone 5 at sprint. are they suppost to ship at the same time? i got my iphone first and i havnt gotten mt applecare+ yet. is it a package or just a email? i called people at sprint and some of them said it was just an email.
UPDATE: I did receive the following 2 items in the mail today regarding my Apple Care +:
1.) Two (2) purchase invoices for Apple Care + on our new iPhone 5s. One for my iPhone 5 and one for my wife's iPhone 5.
2.) Two (2) certificates (e.g. a contract) detailing the terms & conditions of the Apple Care + coverage on our iPhone 5s including all the phone numbers for each individual state in the USA that has exemptions/exceptions.
The only phone number provided for the award winning teams is the only they always provide:
1-800-APL-CARE (800-275-2273) -
I bought an iPhone 5 from the Apple store with a new Sprint contract in Sept. 2012. I would like to know if I port my number to T-mobile and pay off my Early Termination fee with Sprint, will my iPhone 5 will be unlocked to use with T-mobile network?
As Ethmoid says, it is still a CDMA phone as I told you earlier, and it will not work with t-mobile. Even if Sprint unlocked the phone, it would only unlock the GSM side for international use. They will not unlock the GSM side for domestic use in the US.

Help
I need any help i can get, im having trouble with the app find my iphone. I have lost my iphone, checked on the computer, and somehow, took it away so how do i get it back??If you are saying that after signing into iCloud it is telling you device is not found, it could be for any number of reasons. If the battery is dead, if the SIM has been removed, or if someone else has the phone and they have restored it, it will not be shown. Also, if you located it once and then sent a remote wipe, it disables the abililty to locate the phone with Find My iPhone.

Iphone 5 trouble with charging, please help?
Haven't had my iPhone for long (around November for my birthday) and for about the last couple of weeks recently I have had major trouble with the battery charge.
At first I thought it was the cables, so I got new one after new one and they'd work but then stop working. Until the last one I just purchased, it pretty much stopped charging the phone straight away. No lightening or sound response, no connection via computer etc. So, when my charge ran out I still had it plugged into my computer and now my phone only chargers when it's off when it's plugged into a USB port (bear in mind, it doesn't connect to iTunes-it says USB is unrecognized although it still chargers the phone when off). However, it charges fairly quickly when off but when in use the charge diminishes just as quick as it takes to charge. Not only that but now whenever I wish to turn my iPhone off, it turns itself back on.
I have recently sent off my phone to the Apple store to have it checked over and it came back to me saying they couldn't reproduce the symptons I had mentioned so there was me thinking everything was fine but nope, still faulty. So a bit disappointed with paying £7.00 for delivery to have nothing been done about it (not only that, but the phone as also out of charge when returned so it just seemed like my phone wasn't looked over one bit). Also a bit disappointed and annoyed at the fact I'm still paying for my monthly contract for the phone when I am unable to use it!!!
I haven't damaged the phone (it basically looks brand new) and haven't exposed it to any liquids. The USB port on my phone where I charge it seems clear too.
The annoyance of having to send it back to Apple costing me more money is offputting so does anyone have any other suggestions? I'm going to my local 3 store to see if they can help me out but I'm just a bit fed up now. Can see this is a popular problem amongst other iPhone users too.
Many thanks!
(Oh and need to add I HAVE updated everything on my phone, restored everything, restarted etc.)Yeah I went to the 3 store and they said that it costs if they find it's a software issue (which I believe isn't fair). However, after sending mine off and having it back exactly the same I headed off to the 3 store and asked to see what they could do for me. Of course, they can't touch Apple phones so they kindly phoned Apple again for me to only say that Apple have NO record of me even sending my phone off even though I have written and e-mail proof. They then said that they replaced my phone in which they didn't. So I spoke to the senior supervisor who said for me to send it off again (yawn) but to be replaced and if it doesn't then I have to e-mail her directly. It's such an annoying issue because I'm still paying for my phone when I can't even use it.
My advice is, definitely go to the store. Even-though they can't actually replace it there and then or send it off themselves to be repaired but they (should) phone up Apple and help you further. Apple shouldn't be asking you for such an upfront cost without even looking at your phone as it could be another issue.
That's me up to date. Sending it off tomorrow, hopefully receive a replaced working phone now. -
I am using iphone 4S with sprint carrier with IOS 7 and has error 1394
I am using iphone 4S with sprint carrier. It has IOS 7 and now I want to downgrade to IOS 6 and I have downloaded a firmware it is compatible with 4S. Now it shows error 1394 and I have tried to fix my host file in windows according to other forums in internet. But I haven't seen this line in my host file to change it
"74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com" to "#74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com".
PLease suggest me some solution for this problemThere is no approved method to downgrade. Your attempt to load a non-standard iOS file is causing the error. If you want to use your phone, you are going to have to try and restore it to the latest iOS compatable for that device which is iOS 7.0.4, otherwise it will not work and you will continue to see the error. Apple is no longer signing anything below the current iOS, so it will never activate.

Is anyone else having trouble with Siri calling someone from your Contacts on the Iphone 5?
Has anyone had trouble with Siri on the Iphone 5 in dealing with your Contacts. She gives all of the correct information on scores for the NFL but not if I ask her to call somebody in my contacts. She has no trouble with which movies are playing tonight at my local theaters.
If I ask her to call someone from my Contacts, she takes a very long time and then says something like this, "Uh oh, there's a problem. Can you try again?" or something of this nature. Any help appreciated. BTW I download my information from Itunes and also had to change my sim card in order for Verizon to keep my same telephone number.I have not had this problem. I am new to Siri (with an iPhone 5 upgrade from an i4) and Siri has made a number of calls from my contacts. She asks, which John Doe (if I have more than one), which number (if I have more than one) and off we go.
Maybe, you have some setting wrong. -
Are people still having trouble with iPhone/HP Laptops?
Since I've had my Envy I've had no end of trouble with getting it and the iPhone to play nice. Any my search continues. So far, I have updated every bios, reinstalled Windows 7/iTunes many times, have restored the iPhone far more times than I care to remember and I am STILL having troubles with this thing. Having got through the Syncing issues with the PM55 chipset and iPhone I can now sync with my laptop. However all is not well as it would seem that I cannot sync my photo's. It doesn't matter if I have 0gb, 15gb or 30gb free, iTunes is telling me that there is not enough memory available. This error seems like an old one and there is even some info in the Apple KB but after following all that I still can't get it to sync my photo's.
Some info on my setup:
HP Envy 15 (all the latest drivers installed, bios F.24) Core i7-820, 8gb ram etc.
iPhone 32gb, ver 3.1.3
iTunes (whatever the latest one is)
I should add that I can sync my iPhone with an identical install of intunes on my vintage Quad core desktop PC, but as I use my Laptop a lot more (and have all my media, email, and contacts etc on it) I would prefer to sync to it.
Is there anything that I can do? Its very frustrating to have blown $4k on this equipment and it doesn't work...Well I tried deleting the photocache but alas, no luck. I also tried syncing with just the photo's enabled, and it worked! So then I enabled my other media and that copied across too! I thought I was on a bit of a roll here, but now whenever I try and sync it will do one of 3 things:
iTunes will crash.
iTunes will indicate that there is not enough memory on the device (+9GB free)
iTunes will remove the iPhone from the sidebar (and my computer/disk management) even though it will continue to charge.
Interesting point to note is that it works fine (cable/iphone/itunes/media library) on my desktop and macbook. Still really disappointed that I cannot get these two to cooperate. Also still haven't got any contacts from outlook but that may not be related? -
Had trouble with iPhone 2.0 upgrade? CHECK YOUR FILESYSTEM!!
I can't find my original post (deleted?), but when I tried to do the first 2.0 iPhone upgrade the day it came out (BIG MISTAKE), I had a lot of trouble. Thanks to an Apple support person who was kind enough to call me, I deleted a file per his suggestion, which made the backup finish to completion and I was happy.
Or so I thought...
Now, several weeks later, I (or rather our IT guy) has discovered that some of my iPhone backup files were corrupted, which has made a mess out of my Macbook Pro (10.4.11)'s file system. It was not fixable with Disk Utility (in the Utilities Folder of the Application Folder) and only partially fixable with Disk Warrior. Nothing appears to be wrong with the hardware (except that my video port was malfunctioning although that problem had started way before the upgrade.)
If you had trouble with the iPhone 2.0 upgrade, I strongly recommend you verify the integrity of your Mac Filesystem. If there's something wrong, you may need expert help in repairing your file system.Wingstat,
It should still work fine. I have the original iPhone and Apple BT Headset purchased about a year ago. I upgraded to the new 2.0 software 2 weeks ago. BT Headset works fine.
There has always been the occasional incident when I couldn't get the 2 to pair. This was always solved by un-pairing then re-pairing the two manually. To do this:
With your BT Headset:
Press and hold the headset's button until you here the 4, rapid descending tones
Your headset is now off.
On iPhone:
Open SETTINGS, then GENERAL, then BLUETOOTH
Under DEVICES, tap on the iPhone Bluetooth Headset link and select UNPAIR.
Note: If your headset doesn't show up here... keep going...
Tap on the DEVICES link again to put iPhone in DISCOVERABLE MODE
Back to your Headset:
Click and hold the button again... when you hear 4 ascending tones, keep holding
Keep holding the button until you hear 5 rapid, short beeps
Release the button: you're in DISCOVERABLE MODE here too.
Back to your iPhone:
You should see the Headset appear on your DEVICES list.
It should pop up and ask for Pairing Code
Enter 0000 on the iPhone.
You should be all paired up for good now.
