  • My volume on the Iphone 3GS is very low is it an equipment problem, setting problem or update problem?

    My volume on the iPhone 3GS is very low. Is it an equipment problem, settings problem or update problem? And, is there a fix other than having Apple fix it?

    Have you had a look here to make sure it is set up how you want it...

    Never mind. I see. Siri simply has it's own volume and you can adjust it while in Siri itself. It was set low by default.

  • How can i improve ringtone on my Iphone 3Gs i can hardly hear it

    I have two Iphones 3GS and on mine i can hadly hear when someone calls me i try defernt ring tones any sugestions?

    I assume you have configured Settings -> Sounds ->" Ringer and Alerts" to maximum, and you have "Change with Buttons" set to "Off"
    You can download Apps that offer different ringtones, many for free, or the first couple of ringtones for free.
    You can Google Ringtones, and find various web sites offering free ringtones.  You can generally sample the ringtone on-line and then follow the instructions for downloading and installing on your iPhone.
    What you are looking for are ringtones that have a penetrating sound that is difficult to miss, especially if the iPhone is in your pocket or bag.
    I've found some piano sounds and Jazz Saxophone sounds can be heard quite well.

  • My Iphone 3GS is very very slow after 4.0 and 4.01 upgrade

    Hi,
    I have upgrade my iphone 3GS to 4.0 and 4.01 version and now this is getting really worse than with V3 OS version. I have reset it several times but it continues working slow. Is that normal with the new OS? Can I return to Ve IOS?. This is not the Iphone I buy and the Iphone I want

    I have been having problems with very slow performance with both upgrades. With 4.0, I tried resetting my phone to original settings, then synced, but this didn't help. Just trying to activate the area to put the URL in Safari (or the Google search area) often takes forever, same with filling in forms on the web. And Mail has been very slow as well -- it takes a long time for the data to come up. I don't remember having these issues with iOS3.

  • Problem with new ringtone purchased through iPhone 3GS

    Hi,
    I have an i-pod nano purchased 1 year ago & I have just got a new iPhone 3GS purchased last week. Everything has been great so far.
    The problem is with a ringtone I purchased through iTunes on my iPhone. It was fine but when I synced the iPhone to my iTunes on my lap top it has stolen the ringtone & iTunes says that I do not have permission to put it back on my iPhone.
    It's really annoying, can someone please assist at all?! Please.
    Cheers,
    H

    I had the same problem.
    1) Connect you iPhone so it shows in iTunes
    2) Select the iPhone under devices
    3) Click on the Ringtone tab
    4) Check (tick) "Sync ringtones"
    5) Clear "All ringtones" and check (tick) "Selected ringtones" - check (tick) each ringtone individually
    6) Click the "Sync" button

  • ITunes & iPhone 3GS are both locked up (trying to sync to OS4.3.3) - PLEASE HELP!

    I am trying to sync my iPhone 3GS with iTunes to update to the most current OS, but both are locked up.  What do I do?!?  Please help

    I am having the same problem. I tried to update my iPhone 3GS this morning and the update failed. Then the iPhone disappeared from iTunes and my computer won't recognize that it's plugged in. Also the phone's screen shows the don't-disconnect-because-I'm-updating icon and won't shut down when I hold down the power button. Help.

  • Some areas on my IPhone 3GS are not responsive...?

    Hi,
    I just bought an iPhone 3GS yesterday and have realized there are some areas on the screen that are non-responsive to my touch. For example, when im trying to sign in for the app-store, I can not press the okay button. Also when I flip the phone to landscape mode, the "T" key does not respond. So those are some general areas. Is this software issues? Or is there something wrong with my iphone, hardware wise...?
    Any advice would be great! Thanks!

    I'd say it's a hardware issue and you should get it replaced since it's only a day old -- or make an appointment at the Apple genius bar and have them look at it:

  • Help,my Iphone 3gs is very slow on ios5

    Help,my Iphone 3gs 16Gb is very slow on ios5!
    What can I do to get al the speed there is (if any)?

    Same thing for me.  I hit a button and then it's waiting, waiting, waiting.  Now my iCal on my phone is totally hung up and not working. I've just posted about it - I don't know how to fix it so I'm hoping someone here can help me out.  I haven't moved to iCloud. I heard that could be disastrous.  My battery drains really fast now, too.  I just wish I could go back to the previous s/w level because everything was working perfectly then.

  • My home button on my iPhone 3gs is very hard what should i do???

    I am having a problem with my iPhone 3gs home button it is very hard and misses a lot what should i do??? Pls advice.

    If it is still in warrenty i would just take it to the apple store and let them look at it. However if not i could recommend going on amazon and getting an iPhone repair kit and opening the iPhone up to reposition the home button in the phone which may fix your problem.

  • IPhone 3GS freezes very often

    Hi,
    I have a pretty new iPhone 3GS (since early january)
    I use it with the 3.1.3 OS
    The problem I have with it is that it often freezes with the little loading circle in the middle(like the one in the middle of the page here http://www.unwiredview.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/google-mobile-app-for-ipho ne-with-voice.jpg ). It happens when I'm using Calendar, facebook application, iPod application or even when I slide my home page from one screen to another. In other words, it only freezes when I'm touching the screen somehow.
    I tried several times to restore it to fabric settings in iTunes using the Restore button, and it still happens after a little while (around one day later)
    I'm a simple guy so I don't do really sophisticated things on my iphone: I only use it to make call, listen to songs and youtube/safari/facebook so I guess that isn't the problem.
    Recently. I restored it again (for the 2758357285 times) and after few hours, I can't even open my iPod application. when i click on it, it shows a little the black background of the iPod, but then comes back immediately to the home screen.
    My iphone capacities are getting lower and lower.
    Can someone tell me how to resolve this problem?

    Okay MAJOR resync problem !
    You need to do a complete restore to factory settings and restore from backup - that 12Gb of Other is all corrupted files and data.
    First backup the phone with iTunes and make sure your backup completes.
    The do this http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    You'll be fine.

  • IPhone 3GS error - very strange

    Something really awkward happened with my iPhone 3GS today.
    As I wanted to transfer a song to my iPhone, I connected it to the iTunes and have been through the classic procedure of synchronization. However, certain errors occured already during that time. The loading bar, situated on the top of the iTunes window, showed that the synchronization was complete to about 95% - and it stopped there. I shut iTunes completely 20 minutes later, but the mobile screen showed that the iPhone was still being synchronized. Then I ended the synchronization manually on the iPhone by swiping my finger on the cancel toolbar, and then I shut it down, just to be safe.
    The problem is that the iPhone has been shutting itself down for three hours now. I see nothing but a blank screen with the round loading symbol. The iPhone hasn't freezed - it just won't turn off. I tried everything - I connected it to the iTunes, but iTunes says that it cannot connect with the iPhone due to an "unknown problem". I pressed all the buttons on the phone, but it just doesn't bring me anywhere. The phone keeps shutting itself down, but it doesn't switch off completely.
    What am I to do?

    Hold HOME and SLEEP at the same time for 10-15 seconds, until an Apple logo appears. If the phone does not restart see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Before doing this, however, disable your firewall/antivirus and connect the phone only to a USB port directly on the computer, not to a hub.

  • Iphone 3gs got very hot and wont charge

    I have had my iphone 3gs for about a year and a half.  last night I left it on a 3rd party wall charger while I slept, which I bought a week ago and have been using since.  I woke up 4 hours later to find my phone was so hot i couldn't hold it.  No joke it was as hot as my wood burner gets when its been running all day.  It also had no charge.
    Now my screen shows it needs plugged into a charger, and when I plug it into a charger it shows it is plugged in with a dead battery (red empty battery and a lighting bolt). after about a minute the apple icon comes on the screen and sits there for about 5-10 minutes before it turns back off, and shows the red empty battery with the lightning bolt.  If i leave it plugged in it just keeps repeating this cycle.
    I have used a docking station to try and charge, as well as 3 different usb cables plugged into my computer.  I have reset the phone repeatedly today for hours with the power button and home button held in for 10 seconds.  I have even put the phone in DFU mode and restored to factory settings with itunes.  While plugged into the computer, itunes didnt even recognize my phone until i put it in DFU mode, then itunes popped up and restored. when it rebooted after restore it just continued with the cycle of turning on and off, showing its plugged in with a dead battery.
    I cant go to an apple store with a warranty because I have broken this phones screen multiple times and taken it apart to successfully fix it.  Last time I replaced a screen was a few months ago so I know that me disassembling the phone is not relevant to todays problem.
    Has anyone else had this problem, or any suggestions to get my phone to charge and turn on completely?

    Yes, I had this problem. I even phoned apply up & they never knew what it was. Or a solution, but if it's the same problem as I had, then I have a simple, but annoying solution. What happens is the iPhone overheats (normally whencharging and being used, so it stops charging to stop itself from melting. To make thephone charge again try holding it under a fan to cool it. Like I said it worked for me :)

  • Ringtone maker for iphone 3gs

    i want to make ringtone for my iphone.. which is the best and free converter?

    Best is extremely subjective.  They all work.
    You can even use itunes 10 to do this.
    Google will find several ways that work.

  • My incoming calls are very quiet

    Just got an iPhone and noticed that my incoming/outgoing calls are really quiet. My 'ringer' is turned up to the max, but don't where to look or what to change. Need help please.

    Please correct me if I'm wrong, did you mean the analog phone connected on your SPA is not ringing when there's an incoming call ? If your answer is yes , try changing the analog phone connected to it to isolate the problem properly. In some cases , you will be needing to change the ring wave form on the SPA just like the one stated here
