TS3018 my iphone 5 will not allow messaging through ford "my touch" ..it says contact apple for support ? phone & music are fine, cant send voice text

my iphone syncs fine for phone & music, but it wont allow me to use voice text messaging....says apple needs software update ? anyone else ?

It doesn't say "apple needs software update".
  "Apple" is a company, and does not need an update. What exactly is the message? And why can you not update whatever it is?

    My iPhone will not allow me to use the slide feature. I have restarted the phone several times. any suggestions?

    Try rebooting.  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPhone should restart.  See if you can use it when it comes back up.

    Thanks for the pointers folks. Yeah, 1.5GB is pretty poor isn't it? There are other suppliers, but you have to get a their phone line installed to access the internet so it's an £85 setup fee plus a day off work for a guy to come round and drill a hole in your wall before you even get to the monthly costs.
    Don't get me wrong though - I'm certainly not an Apple basher, but am equally frustrated with both them and the ISP.
    Virgin Media spend all kinds of money advertising their broadband as the fastest in the UK, but don't tell you (up front anyway) that you'll be cut off if you actually try and use it.
    Apple on the other hand carry on with their 'it just works' mantra, but with Apple TV this only applies if you meet certain criteria (again, not mentioned up front).
    I guess it aint a biggie, as i was gifted my Apple TV, and love all the other stuff it does, but from the number of posts on this forum can see that there's a lot of angry customers out there who want explanations as to why they're having similar problems to me.
    Will be very interesting to see if Apple release any kind of software update that turns the flash drive from a buffer to permanent storage, to at least ease some of the pain...

  • Garageband on my iphone will not allow saving to iCloud. I have GarageBand 1.2.1

    Garageband on my iphone will not allow activation of icloud. I continually get an error message that 'you have not set up iCloud on this device, close garageband open the settings app and sign in to iCloud.' i am signed in. I have GarageBand 1.2.1
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled GarageBand many times,
    I can't share between iPhone and iPad which is really frustrating.
    Is it an iCloud bug or a GarageBand bug?
    Any ideas?

    I have the same message!  I just got a new iPad yesterday, to replace an old one.  I also just bought $40 worth of extra iCloud storage space, and my iCloud from within GarageBand on my iPad won't work at all!!!  It keeps saying the same message you stated above.  I have been on the phone for literally hours with Apple iPad support on the phone yesterday and today, and it's still NOT FIXED.
    APPLE, PLEASE HELP??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    HOW CAN WE FIX THIS?  I PAID EXTRA MONEY SO THAT I CAN HAVE MY MUSIC ON ICLOUD SHARED BETWEEN DEVICES.
    I hope the answer comes swiftly!!!
    Thanks!

  • My iphone will not allow me to turn on the wi-fi setting

    Question
    My iphone doesn't allow me to turn on the wi-fi setting. The on button is greyed out and won't turn on . I have tried resetting network settings and restoring phone but nothing is working.Any advice?

    Hello workshop1,
    I found an article with steps to take when you cannot enable Wi-Fi on your iPhone:
    Resolution
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Verify that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
    Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset >Reset Network Settings.
    Note: This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings
    Ensure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
    If your issue is still unresolved, perform a software restore in iTunes.
    Additional Information
    If you are still unable to turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options.
    If you are able to turn Wi-Fi on but are experiencing other issues with Wi-Fi, please see this article.

  • HT201269 my iphone will not allow me to press the sync button, any suggestions

    my iphone will not allow me to press the sync button. It is showing as greyed out. Any suggestions ?

    I am having the same issue. After hunting around on the community boards for a while, I noticed that ZoneAlarm Firewall came up fairly often as causing issues with syncing. I re-activated the firewall that came bundled with my less-than-a-year old Windows 7 pc and completely uninstalled ZoneAlarm. I dragged and dropped one of my playlists to the iPhone 3GS and then most of my music then came back, but I am still unable to get all my custom ringtones (created in i ringer) to reload. I've tried dragging and dropping to no avail (I use "manually manage" because I add audio books from the library).
    Others have posted these same issues and the odds that we are all doing the same exact wrong thing seems astronomical - there must be an issue with the latest firmware update. Different iPhone versions, different OS on computers, PC v Mac - all having problems after the latest update. Coincidence? Hmmmm!
    If you do have ZoneAlarm, it might be worthwhile to change that...

    When I open iTunes, it will not allow me to preview or download TV shows. The preview and download options are gray and will not let me view them.

    My new HK iPhone will not download apps purchased in U.S. and says I need an HK Apple ID.  This creates a second Apple ID and I am concerned that I will have to pay twice for the same app.

    Apps previously purchased will continue to operate wherever you are.    However; you'll not be able to update them other than by using the original purchase details.   What this means is that you can only 'purchase' from a country's store if you have a valid credit card and residence of and in that country.

    This is the message that you'll receive when your Apple ID is signed into on an iPhone. If you haven't done so, the article linked below details a number of steps that can help verify the security of your Apple ID should you think that an unauthorized person has access to it.

    You will need to contact iTunes support to find out why, it could be due to a number of reasons (these are user-to-user forums so nobody on here will know) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • HT4623 My iphone iphone will not activate, message given is "Iphone activation cannot be completed right now, please try again later"

    My iphone will not complete the activation after i upgraded the software, Keeps saying activation cannot be completed because server cannot be reached, please try again later. Help!!

    Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
    hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
    original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
    carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
    if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    Where did you acquire this iPhone?
    What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
    Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?
    Unauthorized modification of iOS
