Updated iphone 3gs to ios5 now I can't open contacts or make phone calls

This afternoon I decided to update my iphone 3GS to ios5 and now I find that I can not open the contacts app or the phone app which told me I had missed calls and a voicemail they just both immediately close. I tried opening the settings > mail, contacts page and that closes immediately and after creating an icloud account thing I tried to turn contacts on and it just automaticaly closes. I tried creating a contact from an existing message and it automaticaly close. I've sync'd the phone numerous times and it's the same deal. It's only these two apps that don't work
If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated.

    Place your iPhone in manual recovery mode or DFU mode.
    1. Connect your iPhone
    2. Open iTunes
    3. Hold down the home and power button for 8 seconds. After 8 sec, let go of the power but still hold down the home button until iTunes recognize your phone in recovery mode

    After downlaoding ios5 and installing I get the message "we are unable to complete your activation at this time" when trying to update iphone 3gs to ios5 using itunes. Can anyone help?

    Hi David,
    any luck later?
    I'm experiencing the same issue and I see that you're also posting from China. Not sure is location-related but if you managed to activate you iPhone: how did you do it? Just keep on trying?
    I'm a bit fed up of trying. It's already two full days...
    Thanks, ciao.

  • HT4972 I updated my ipod touch and now I can't open any of my videos what happened and what can I do to get them to open

    I updated my ipod touch and now I can't open any of my downloaded apps, what would happen if I reset it to factory settings?

    Try a hard reset.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If still no luck try downloading and installing a free app from the app store.  This has resolved the issue for many users.

  • Just Updated iPhone 3GS to iOS5, Can't receive any incoming calls at all

    Hi, I just updated my phone to iOS5 and now, I'm having these troubles.
    - Can't receive any incoming calls at all
    - The incoming calls directly goes to voice mail greeting
    - No incoming rings & no missed calls alerts
    - Also noticed the incoming text with 4 to 5 hours delays
    - Sometimes 3G network get lost
    The reception (status bar) is good level, can make outgoing calls okay and can send text okay.
    I did try reset the network setting and it seems working a few hours then went back to troubles (mentioned above).
    I've done 3 or 4 times reset but none have been resolved yet.
    Anyone having a same issues?
    I have
    iPhone 3GS with iOS5
    Network with O2 UK
    Thanks,

    After reset "All network settings" a several times, it seems working but few hours later it 's been gone back to troubles again.
    Is this related to iOS5 or O2?
    I've contacted the network carrier several times but no-one yet get back to me.
    Any ideas, please helps.

  • Problem updating Iphone 3gs to ios5

    Hello.
    I have a serious problem. Yesterday, Itunes requested to update my phone to IOS5 (My Iphone was working perfectly on the older version of IOS)
    Updater got stuck on the recover part for an hour until I recieved an error.  " Iphone could not be restored. Unknown error (14)."
    On my phone's screen it wants me to plug it into itunes. Itunes says "ITunes has detected an Iphone in recovery mode.
    IPhone software must be restored before it can be used with iTunes"
    I try to restore it and same problem occurs. Any ideas? I've noticed some people are facing problems with ios5 update also.
    Thanks already for help!

  • Help I just installed the latest update on my IPhone4 and now I can't open any of my stored podcasts. When I hit the podcast icon, the screen goes white for a second and the goes back to the opening page with all the icons. What happened?

    Help! I just installed the latest update on my IPhone 4 and now I can't access my podcasts. When I hit the podcast I on, the screen goes blank for a second and then opens to the home screen with all my icons. What happened?

    Try a reset which is similar to a computer restart and is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously you see the Apple logo and then release.

  • Please can someone help,i bought an iphone from the states,i put a sim in ,i could make phone call,but i couldnt surf ,it seems that something is wrong and when i click on wireless nozhing happen,

    please someone help i bought an iphone4 from the states, i put the sim card in, icould make a phone call,thats ok but i couldnt open the opera,and when i click on wireless on buttom nothings happen.

    Are you talking about an unlocked version?  If an iPhone is locked to AT&T in the U.S., anyting is fair game outside of AT&T's network. (You can always use WiFi, though.)

  • Updated to Firefox 4.0, now I can't open the browser.

    I'm running a Mac OS X Version 10.4.11 Just updated to Firefox 4.0 after Yahoo advised that things would run better. Upgraded from Firefox 3.1.16 (I think).......now I cannot open the Firefox browser at all....it won't let me launch the browser. It says: "You cannot open the application "Firefox" because it is not supported on this system". How do I go back to the old version?.....at least I was able to launch it and use it? Any help would be appreciated.
    Posted: Fri 06May2011

    Sorry, Firefox 4 is not compatible with Mac OS X 10.4. You can download and reinstall the previous version (Firefox 3.6) from here: http://www.firefox.com/all-older.html
    Or, if you have a PowerPC Mac, you can try this unofficial version of Firefox: http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/

  • Adobe just updated to 9.4. Now I can't open pdf's in Firefox browser. Help.

    My Adobe Acrobat updated to 9.4 this morning. Now, after that update, I cannot open pdf files in Firefox.
    Help. Is a patch coming?
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    Can you please try some of the troubleshooting steps in the [[Opening PDF files within Firefox]] article? The problem is, unfortunately, a bit vague, so I think your problem may be solved by any of the solutions proposed in the article.
    Thanks for asking :D

  • TS1702 Updated Facebook app. And now I can not open it?????

    I updated Facebook and now it will not load

    I did the same thing. Very frustutating. Open FB through Safari, desktop version. Go to photos, click upload. It will tell you it's not supported etc but it will give you the option of adding the mobile FB app. I clicked on it just to see and it's the old version so it worked! I'm back in business with the old compatible app for 3G

  • HT4623 how do you update iphone 3gs ios 2.1 to 4.3 please help

    How do i upgrade ios2.1 on how do you update iphone 3gs ios 2.1 to 4.3 please help my i phone to download sky go also i cannot connect to my sky wifi at home.is it true only 2 devices at a time laptop 1 and desktop 2 thank you

    If it is a 3GS you cannot update it to 4.3, you can only update it to iOS 6. Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer, connect the phone, click on its name on the left, then click the "Check for Updates" button on the right.
    If you can't connect to your home WiFi try rebooting the router.
