TS4036 My iphone 4s cloud appears to work - I sign in and it verifies okay but tries tp access storage forever and ever.

My iphone 4s hasn't been backed up to icloud for many days. I sign in. my account is verified but it then attempts to access storage for ever and ever. This is a very recent problem... has been working fine until this week. Does anyone have a solution? Thanks.

If you get the error "Backup not successful" and you've tried deleting the last backup and trying to back up manually without luck, try the following test: Go to...
Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>manage Storage, tap your device name in the Backups section, then look under Backup options. Turn off all apps from backup and then do a manual backup. If that doesn't work, then this post will not help. If the backup works, then go back to the app list and turn some on and try another backup. If successful, keep repeating these steps. If it fails at some point, then try to zero in on the one app that seems to make the backup fail. (I had this problem and found one app failing, probably due to a corrupt data file.)
This process will take time, but if a backup works with no app data being used but clearly fails with the original settings, then somewhere in the mix of apps is a "bad" one.

My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can i fix this without turning off iCloud?

My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can I fix this without turning off iCloud?
I am at a new office that uses Outlook (not Outlook Exchange) which does not sync with my mobile... I just got iCloud set up on my PC to sync my contacts, calendar, reminders, etc... The sync worked (not without flaws, but the other issues seem solvable... I think), so that i can now see all my appointments on both my phone and on my PC. The problem I am having is that iCloud moved all of my calendar items from Outlook into iCloud calendar and now when I send out meeting/calendar invites the recipients may accept them, but the meeting does not get added to their calendar. This is a huge problem and may mean that i need to turn off iCloud.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!

I am replying to my own post here as I seem to have fixed the problem.
I do have some calendars that are shared. Some of those are shared with users who have time zone support turned on. So i activated time zone support on my iphone, then deleted my icloud subscription. I then signed in to icloud again and voila... problem solved.
It is a weird one as the other calendar views were always fine and when you opened an event that appeared in the wrong day (on list view), the correct date of the event was shown in the information...
one more bug in a complicated system I guess

How do you stop my iphone keep asking for my works proxy server name and password

how do you stop my iphone keep asking for my works proxy server name and password

Having been in IT for close to 30 years what they actually thought was, "whether you can connect your phone to our network isn't out problem, please go away".
They don't want to troubleshoot it. And, honestly, if it's your personal phone, they shouldn't have to. it's not their problem unless their boss says it is.

I suspect unless he had some items in iCloud backup then they are gone. Connecting an iPhone to a different library from that to which it was previously connected will result in the device asking if you want to erase it.

basics from the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. Have these been attempted?
If you've tried ALL these steps, including setting up as a new device (not from backup), and you still have problems, then you have a hardware failure and will need to bring your phone into Apple for replacement.

IPhone 4 ear speaker not working after 2 restores and cleaning the headphone socket.

Hi,
I know this problem is not uncommon, but here goes...
I have an iPhone 4 which was running iOS 5.1.1 a few days ago when the ear speaker stopped working. I cant hear the other person when I make or recieve a call, but nothing else is wrong with the phone. It is 18 months old.
I've searched the discussions and seen some of the suggestions. I tried cleaning out the headphone socket, with no luck. I then tried a full restore and update to iOS 6. This appeared to have worked. I tried 2 calls and I could hear the other person. I then left the phone alone for a couple of hours and when I tried it again, it had stopped working again.
I have since done another full restore but the speaker is still not working at all. The fact that it worked after the first restore suggests it's something simple or software related but I have no idea what else to try other than getting it repaired in a shop. The problem is I am in Japan where my network (Softbank) and an independent repair shop have both quoted me the equivalent of $176 / £110 to fix it.
Does anyone know anything else I can try before I give in and end up shelling out this ridiculous cost for something that is probably a 20 minute fix?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I have the exact same problem with my ear speaker after my IOS 6 upgrade. My speakers work, bluetooth works, the earphones work, but the ear speaker doesn’t work. I noticed this IMMEDIATELY after the upgrade was completed. I also have the following problems:
-Very slow call connect time. 30 - 45 seconds just to connect is typical. Signal strength is 5 bars (ATT)
-Problems attaching to known networks
-Very slow internet browsing with many timeouts on both the ATT 3G service and known Wi-Fi networks.
- My camera was missing after the IOS 6 upgrade. I restored that from Restrictions inside of the Settings App
- Music was so screwed up it was easier to just restore it
I went to the Apple store hoping to get some support. Between my wife, my son, and myself we have purchased 4 iPhones and an iPad over the last few years with plans to purchase another iPad in a month or so. So it’s not like I' not familiar with Apple Technology and their typical level of support.
The individual who waited on me was rude and condescending. He insisted that all of the problems were hardware related or ATT’s fault, or my fault. He further asserted that IOS 6 had NOTHING to do with any of the problems. I pointed out that it would be quite a coincidence for my hardware to break, for ATT to have network problems, and for me to suddenly forget how to use an iPhone at the same exact moment that IOS 6 had been installed. He maintained his position and offered to sell me another phone.
I don’t expect the folks in the store to reprogram the OS. Mistakes happen. I’m going to guess that Apple’s OS programmers are already working on a fix for many of the IOS 6 complaints that are easy to find on Google. Assigning blame to the customer and denying any responsibility is not a model for success or customer service. I’m sure Apple wouldn’t accept that kind of excuse from their component manufacturers and don’t think it is how they should deal with their customers. Further, Apple wants to own the device. They want to control the apps, the OS, battery, the delivery channel. I’m good with that so long as when there is a problem, they own that as well.
And BTW… I’m not including the maps in my list of issues with IOS 6 because I kind of like the new maps and am willing to give Apple the benefit of the doubt. I believe that their map service will get a lot better in a hurry.

Images on my iPhone 5 are appearing pixelated in apps like pinterest and instagram. How can I fix this?

Recently images on my iPhone 5 have begun appearing pixelated in multiple apps, exlcuding facebook. I've tried turning my phone on and off and restarting the apps. Nothing has resolved the issue. Suggestions?

If Apple replaced the battery, contact them to check the phone, the battery replacement is covered by a warranty.

The number panel on the keyboard app on my iphone won't appear on the Apple sign-on box.

All of a sudden when I try to login to the App store - I can't bring up the number panel to enter the numbers in my password. I tap the button and nothing changes. Letters work fine.

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.
Try a reset.

When i tired to activate an iphone bought off a friend it says the sim car inserted in this iphone does not appear to be supported. he seems to think its unlocked but i cant activate it.

please help quickly

You will have to speak to the mobile operator that your friend was with, because I think iTunes locks the iPhone to that carrier. For instance, if he/she was with AT&T then speak to them... if he/she was with Vodafone then speak to them.
There is no such thing as an unlocked iPhone, at least that is what an Apple Genius employee told me as he explained what iTunes does when your connect the device to your computer. I guess technically speaking before connecting to an internet enabled PC then it is unlocked, but I understand what he was alluding to.
Just to be clear, wait for one of the more experienced users here to confirm or deny what I have written.

Why does my i cloud keeps asking me to sign in and agree the term and conditions every 10 minutes since installing iOS 7

After installing ios 7 my phone keeps asking me to enter my apple id for icloud i put it in then agree the terms and conditions then 10 minutes later the same thing happens. Have tried to reset the password and it still happens

Wow, no replies?
So now when I bring up Creative Cloud and fill out sign-in (Adobe ID and password), I just get the spinning wheel ... left it for 30 minutes and it just keeps spinning.
I'm sorry but this CC subscription process just isn't working and it's clearly NOT been tested.
I see many other threads of people having exactly the same problem, any solution?

O2 - The sim card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported

I just sold my iPhone recently to a guy who has now gone out to Libya for a while, the phone worked fine on iOS 4 with Three, and was offically unlocked by O2 and worked on O2 and Vodafone before selling it, however now he has gone out to Libya the phone is not activating and iTunes is just saying...
"The sim card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported."
What does this mean, he has tried the SIM card in another iPhone and it works fine but it won't work in my old one.
What can be done, I am unsure why iTunes won't activate what is clearly an unlocked iPhone.

The likely answer is that no one knows. Or everyone is too busy talking about the latest press release from Apple.
As long as it was unlocked by a carrier and not by jailbreaking it should work on any GSM network. So the problem is most likely with the SIM your buyer is trying to use. It's either defective or it doesn't have a plan that is compatible with the iPhone.

IPhone 2G voice mic not working

Has anyone come across iPhone 2G voice mic not working (not being heard by the other person) but works fine on speaker phone and bluetooth headset. It has been working fine so far and suddenly developed this problem! Any help is highly appreciated….

I had that problem with my iPhone 3G after about 5 days.
I just had Apple take a look at it.
They cleaned it out, called it and stuff.
Didn't work.
Since I didn't drop it in water and it was not my fault in any way, they gave me a brand new one.

Can anyone confirm if the iPhone 6 plus T-mobile contract free will work in Asia (Philippines and Singapore)

I bought this iPhone last November, model is A1252. During that time, apple said it's contract free and I used T-mobile because Im in the US.
But last January, Apple released the unlocked version A1254 if Im not mistaken.
Question is: Will my iPhone 6 plus tmobile (A1252) work in Southeast Asia and Europe? Particularly Philipppines, Singapore, and France

Apple has not yet released an unlocked iPhone 6 or 6 Plus. Whether or not you can make a T-Mobile phone work for you, just pay your money and take your chances...some say it will, some say it won't. As for me, I'm just being patient and waiting for Apple to release the unlocked version, which they will, sooner or later. Chill...
