Voice Memos grayed out after iOS 8 upgrade, then restore

Hello all,
As others have stated, I lost ALL my voice memos after upgrading my iPhone 5c (don't judge) to iOS 8. Simple enough, restore right? Wrong. Restored the iCloud backup from a few days ago, pre iOS 8 update. "Got" the data back, at least everything looked right....except the OS is still iOS 8, not 7 (fine), but when I open Voice Memos I now SEE my recordings, but they are all greyed out and I can't play them or send them to myself to save them. I'm a songwriter and I have valuable demo material here I really don't want to lose. Any help appreciated!!

Well, nevermind! I guess the restore just hadn't finished because now all is back to normal!

My wi-fi slide is grayed out after IOS 7.1 update

I have the iphone 4s and my wi-fi slide is grayed out after my update of IOS 7.1. I tried network reset and factory reset and it still didn't work. Please help.

There was no "force".
There is nothing about iOS7 that breaks Wi-Fi on the iPhone 4 or any other iPhone. Don't believe me? Lift your fingers and search these forums, you'll see issues going back to at least iOS5 with multiple versions of iPhones where after an iOS update the Wi-Fi is grayed out. It is not a specific version of iOS or specific models of iPhone.
The issue is simply that on some iPhones, the Wi-Fi hardware is "on the fence" so to speak, and upgrading iOS (regardless of version) is extremely difficult on the hardware. Unfortunately, the Wi-Fi has failed.
Nothing lasts forever. Accept it and move on.

Preview issue. Send to iPhoto option is grayed out after Lion upgrade

Preview issue. Send to iPhoto option is greyed out after Lion upgrade.
In Snow Leopard it was an option to send pics from Preview to iPhoto, but now it is greyed out if I right-click on the pic. I have searced and tried everything, but I cannot fix it, so does anyone have a fix for it? Please :-)

I can offer no help but would also like to see this issue resolved. Firstly, it would be useful to know if this problem is seen by everyone. When viewing photos in Preview, with thumbnails in the sidebar, right-clicking on any of the thumbnails results in this:
Prior to the upgrade to Lion, "Send to iPhoto" was not greyed out and worked as expected.

Voice Memos ceased working after iOS 6.0.2 upgrade

Voice Memos launches then crashes in one second on my iPhone 5, ios 6.0.2. This began after the latest ios upgrade for iPhone 5.
I have done a hard reset; a restore iPhone and the standard Voice Memos does not function anymore.
Does anyone have a solution? There is no other way to uninstall and reinstall the one single app that I am aware of.
Thanks!

You do realize voicemail is a carrier feature. What have you done to fix this, have you gone in and at least try to change the greeting?

Songs grayed out after iOS 8 update

After updating my iPhone 5s with the iOS 8 update, my playlists and songs are acting crazy! I use playlists to teach fitness classes, and when I open a playlist now, or several songs are grated out and will not play! I've tried to delete the songs and playlists and re-sync with my computer, but nothing helps.

I don't know but I hope someone can answer because the same is happening to me! I bought 2 songs yesterday and can't add them to any playlist and a few songs I already had are grayed out as well.

Iphoto still grayed out after iphoto upgrade after mavericks install, what should I do?

After upgrading to mavericks Iphoto was Grayed out. The computer Notified me that I would have to upgrade iphoto from 9.2.1 to to latest version.
went to the mac app store, the upgrade page showed the iphoto upgrade, it downloaded and installed the upgrade but iphoto is still grayed out in the dock and in the applications folder. The mac app store shows the iphoto upgrade as being installed. whot should I do?

First, make sure the new copy of iPhoto was not installed as a separate icon in your Applications folder.
If that's not the case, try launching it anyway; I've seen instances where the icon fails to update until the associated application is launched for the first time.

Thanks for your quick response. I've tried everything you suggested and get only temporary fixes. Sometimes for a day or two, sometimes only until I use Safari for the first time. It's annoying and probably effects battery life between charges.
You would think that it must have some effect on the battery, but oddly enough, the update to iOS 8 actually helped my battery life, in spite of all of these hinky little issues that are taking place. In my experience, the activity icon is not affecting the battery in a negative way.
Another issue with IOS 8.1 that you may have seen is the loss of icon pictures on home pages. Again it seems to be Safari related, since app icons found in the App Store are not affected, only web based icons you personally put on home pages. I get what I call a test screen similar to what you used to get on old tv sets on every one of my personal icons.
I know exactly what you mean. I got that as well. On a few of them, when I opened the websites using the generic test screen icons and then closed them, they changed back to the way that they should look. For the ones that did not change, I recreated the home screen shortcuts and deleted the generic looking ones - the test screen icons.
And don't get me started on iBooks.
For the very limited use that I make of the iBooks app, i haven't noticed any problems, but I rarely use the app. I don't read books on the iPad other than a few user guides and if they are pdf guides, they reside in more reliable and feature rich pdf apps on my iOS device.
I wish that I had the fix for the spinning activity icon, but everything that I try, is temporary at best. IMO, this is the buggiest iOS update that I have seen, and I have been using iOS devices since iOS 3 on my first iPad. I realize that there are plenty of people that are not experiencing issues, but I have seen a number of weird things that I wish I could fix. None of my problems are major, but they are annoying.

Apple iPad 3. BT email not working. Cannot send emails from btconnect SMTP after iOS upgrade. This is the only difference I am aware of. Can anyone help me please.

All resolved at last
Deleted the SMTP setting

No logic - as usual - just a bug!

I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes. Before iOS 8, movies played fine. After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive. Anyone else have a similar issue?

I checked with SanDisk's own online support and they indicate that they have notified Apple of the issue.
According to SanDisk, the problem lies with Apple not having the iOS 8 version of the Safari browser having DRM decoding enabled that the Media Drive relies upon to decode and play iTunes DRM titles. Non DRM encoded videos will play in the browser.
DRM audio is not effected as this is handled by the native iOS music app.
As of the date of this post SanDisk have not been given a timeframe by Apple for this issue to be resolved.
I hope that Apple resolves this issue quickly as I have a large collection of DRM video titles on a 128Mb memory card installed in the Media Drive that I am unable to view.
