Using iPhone to take Contact pics crashes everytime.
Anyone figure out why this happens? Or know when the fix will be made?
I try to add a contat picture, and select Take Picture. I take the picture and then the iPhone crashes before it saves it to the contact. It happens everytime I try it. So I 'm forced to take a regular picture, then choose import photo instead. Sort of odd that their "shortcut" doesn't work at all.
Anytime something doesn't work right, do a reboot.
Try a reboot (described below).
Think of it this way, the iPhone is more of a computer than a phone. It suffers from being a new OS and nobody can deny there are not bugs and memory leaks. The longer left running, the more things start to fail or slow down (I have had the iPhone since day one of original phone and I am just speaking from my experience). Thus I equate it to like when Windows95 came out...not sure of your age or if you remember those days...but back then it was a running joke of how many days you can keep Windows 95 running before you had to reboot. I am sorry to say but the iPhone is the same way right now (but getting better with a few hiccups back during the 2.0 release). So for me, I reboot daily when I leave in the morning and take it off the charger. By doing so I rarely see any lag or problems.
A reset/reboot is:
Go to Home Screen
Press and Hold Home Button
Keep holding and press and hold Lock Button
Keep holding Both
You will see Slide to Turn Off (Don't let go to slide, just keep holding)
The phone will turn off (in time, but screen will look like it has some white lines)
Keep Holding
When you see the Apple Logo, you can let go.
Turning off via the Slide to Turn off while good and fine to turn off, is more like the Sleep Mode on a computer. Thus any locked up issues in memory remain when you turn back on. A reboot as described is like doing a real Turn off and Turn On on a computer.
You may also wish to read this tread about reboots and odd application behavior.

How can I transfer video taken with my iPhone to my iPad WITHOUT using a computer or iTunes? I'm going to Europe for a month and want to use my iPhone to take pics and video, then come back to the hotel room and use my iPad to edit/store each evening. I don't want to use my iPad to take the video...too large/bulky. And I WON'T have a computer with me...I purchased the iPad to take with me so I could use the RDC to my home computer and avoid taking my computer at all. Is this possible?
here is a cheaper solution than camera kit and a lot easier if you have WIFI available.
I use the PhotoSync APP (I think its a $1.99) will transfer videos and photos over WIFI to any other IOS device or even PC/MAC. Great app since I like doing video and photos on my IPHONE and transfer to IPAD2 without synching through computer or doing cloud based storage.
You can even send photos/videos from your MAC/PC to your IOS devices that way too. Makes it so much easier.

My computer backed up my iPhone before I updated my IOS, now itunes crashes everytime I restore! How can I get my contact information back?
When does iTunes crash?
When you connect to the computer?
When you click on the restore button?
At sometime during the restore?
Does it crash or does just iTunes freeze?

For some reason my iPhone 4 won't take incoming calls and everytime someone phones me it goes straight to voicemail what's gone wrong??
Look at the AT&T VVM User Guide for help setting up your visual voice mail.
If you still have problems, contact AT&T Customer Service at 1-800-331-0500 and ask them to check that your account is provisioned for an iPhone 4. -

i got the iphone 5, got some pics and msgs and contacts on it, and when i connected to my PC to restore my previous info from the old iphone, all the new stuff are gone, how can i get it back, thanks for help.
The voicemail system used for the iPhone is different from the voicemail system used on the rest of the Verizon Wireless network. When you activate the iPhone, you lose your saved voicemails from the other system. When you activate a non-iphone, you lose any saved voicemails from the iPhone voicemail system too.

How can I see from my contact who use iphone (ios 5) for contact with imessage?
How can I see from my contact who use iphone (ios 5) for contact with imessage?
Well, let take the personal service point of view : let say, I had two calendars on my iCloud account : one for work, one for my leisure activities.
On my MacBook Pro that I use at home as well as at my office, I would want the two calendars to show and since I am alone in my office, I would want the alerts for both my work and my leisure activities to show (and make a sound at the same time).
But on my iPad that I only use at home, I would only want my leisure activities alerts to show (and make a sound) and on my iPhone that I only use for work, I would only want my work alerts to show (and make a sound).
That is a personal service that simply does not work.
Why would Apple give us the opportunity to hide some calendars on certain devices but not allow us, on these same devices, to switch off the alerts linked to these calendars that we have chosen to hide ? Why having alerts of calendars that do not even show on these devices ?
And I am an Apple fan since 1984, since the very first Mac. I still do believe Macs and Apple devices and/or software (iOS, OS X and others...) are much better and much more efficient than " Microsoft, Windows, Google and other Android devices and software.
But that does not mean everything's perfect (and I find that quite normal).
Nevertheless, in this case, letting alerts make a sound on a device where a specific calendar is not shown, that does not make any sense : when uncheking those calendars, the alerts linked to those calendars should be automatically switch off (but alerts should be able to work on the calendars that are shown.) -
Itunes could not sync contacts to the iphone because the contacts are in use by the iphone
itunes could not sync contacts to the iphone because the contacts are in use by the i phone.... hi i always get this messega when i plug my phone in to the iphone is there anyone have any idea how to fix my phone thank u
Am I'm the only one with this issue?
As I investigate the crash logs it appears that the contacts db is corrupted and that is what is killing the phone, contacts, and mail etc settings.
I have my contacts backed up several places so I'm not worried about losing them.
Anyone know how to wipe or recreate the contacts db on the phone via an attached PC?

HT1386 I downloaded Itunes 11 and now my Iphone 5 crashes everytime I try to sync it?
I downloaded Itunes 11 and now my Iphone 5 crashes everytime I try to sync it; I am using Windows 7. It has also wiped all my current music off my phone. I have searched google for this problem and I'm just reaching dead ends or solutions for Mac's. Is anyone having the same problems? I have turned the phone on and off, restarted my laptop, used different usb ports but nothing is working. Please help!
When I've uninstall iTunes and reinstall, I find all the same settings in iTunes like one my playlist! But I'm not sure at 100% of that, sorry! But I'm completely sure that your music must will reamain in iTunes and you don't have to reaload that in your library. Maybe wait another answer for safety

Syncing using my iPhone/iMac (cal, contacts, etc.)?
Syncing using my iPhone/iMac (cal, contacts, etc.) iMac to iPhone. How do I get syncing both ways? It used to work. I've tried syncing from the computer, and from iCloud. I've resorted to duplicating updated information everytime I have a new date or contact.
Hey blind guy!
I see that you are having issues with syncing your information to your computer through iCloud and iTunes. One step you may want to try is turning off the syncing of your information when syncing with iTunes and just syncing your information with iCloud. If that does not achieve the desired results, then I have found an article that should help you troubleshoot the issue. It can be found here:
Sync Services: Advanced troubleshooting for contact and calendar syncing

All my contacts use iPhones but one doesn't use iMessage because it uses data. I want to use iMessage for other contacts but i have to turn off for just one contact. Can I turn iMessage off for just one contact?
You need to delete here conversation and start another one using her phone number and not her Apple ID. You cannot delete iMessage, you can disable it. If the Apple server still sees her iPod with iMessage on and using her Apple ID, then it will continue to appear to your phone that she has iMessage. She needs to take a look at this support document about permanently disabling iMessage for her account. Can’t receive text messages on a non-Apple phone

Is it possible to use a single iPhone with two contact numbers via dual sim or an app?
Is it possible to use a single iPhone with two contact numbers via dual sim or an app?
This would be a useful feature for personal and company numbers but using one mobile, rather than carrying two devices or diverting calls.Then go ahead and try it. You'll find it's probably a load of crap.
You want 2 numbers, then use Google Voice or TalkaTone
Those are US based only Apps or numbers so no good. I won't be wasting money by just trying something either, especially because using a dual sim would mean purchasing another sim card on either pay as you go or monthly contact. -

Hello
that is able to separate an apple icloud account My IMEI *******.
I buy a Used iphone 5c ios 7.1.1 but after restore it asks me iCloud account.
I have no contact with the seller.
thank you for your reply
<Edited by Host>The iPhone has Activation Lock and will require you to have the previous owner's Apple ID and password or you'll need to get the previous owner to remove the device from his/her iCloud account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2702
If you can't reach the previous owner or he/she is unwilling to cooperate, then the device is unusable by you. Return the iPhone for a refund if you can.

My wife and I have separate have separate user accounts on our IMac. We have separate Apple IDs for iTunes. How can we use iCloud on our separate iPhones without sharing contacts, calendars, etc.
If have separate iCloud accounts and want to keep your all your iCloud data separate, you can create separate user accounts for each of you, then sign into your individual iCloud account within your user account.
If you want to just add both iCloud calendars on your Mac, you can sign into one iCloud account in System Preferences>iCloud, then add the second account in System Preferences>Internet Accounts>iCloud and only check Calendars with this second account.
