Voicemail password after iOS4 update on 3GS

After my upload of iOS4 and several freezes, my phone continues to show a message "Enter voicemail password" with option to cancel regardless of what app the phone is running. I hit cancel and then the message randomly pops back up. There has never been a password on my visual voicemail before. How do I get the message to stop popping up. I looked under settings for a "Turn off password" option but was not able to find one. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

I had the same thing, it's because the password had been deleted from the phone. I just now clicked on the voicemail button, it called my voicemail and I listened to one that was saved. After I hung up it came up with an Incorrect Password pop-up, I entered the correct password and my visual voicemail was all there.

Try typing in your 10 didget cell number. Restart iPhone to get the prompt again.

SPA 500 Phones - Automatically dial voicemail password after voicemail number?

I am provisioning a set of SPA 500 series phones (a mix of SPA 504g & SPA 525g) for users in my office and would like to configure the voicemail button to automatically send the voicemail box number and/or voicemail password after dialing the voicemail number.
There are two ways of dialing the voicemail system, either with *98 or with the user's voicemail box SIP URL. When using *98 for the voicemail number, the user is required to enter their box number (i.e. 7890), then their VM PIN (i.e. 1234). However, when using the mailbox's SIP URL for the voicemail number, the outgoing message is played as if a call had gone unanswered, which requires the user to enter STAR+PIN (i.e. *1234) to access their voicemail.
Can the phone be configured to dial sequences like either *98[pause]7890[pause]1234 or [email protected][pause]*1234 ?
Ideally the voicemail button would do all this, however if it's not possible there, perhaps it could be done with a Speed DIal or an Unused Line Key. Any help in this direction would be great.
Thanks!

Even though I am late to the party on this, I appreciate you posting those Release Notes. I have upgraded my firmware to take advantage of the new dialing features. However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to insert a space into the dialing string. I am able to insert the other characters discussed in those Notes, but not a space. Can anybody enlighten me? I am using a SPA 504G.
Many thanks.
SOLUTION (EDIT): I found the answer. When in the dialing field, scroll far right in the soft keys an select IP, which gives you more choices for characters in your string. To insert a space, tap on the zero key. The first entry is a space. It is hard to see, even when inserted into your string, but it is there. To insert a comma to create a 2-second pause, tap the 1 key. And, so as to unify the solution here, I am pasting below the instructions from the release notes referenced above.
Release Notes for Cisco Small Business SPA5XX and SPA30X IP Phones Firmware Version 7.5.1a
Speed Dial Wait, Pause, and DTMF
Speed dial entries can include wait (X) and pause (,) parameters that allow manual and automatic DTMF (Dual-tone multi-frequency) signal transmission.
Syntax:
{Dial_String}[ ][,|X][DTMF_string][,|X][DTMF_string]
Where:
Dial_String—The number that the user is trying to reach. For example, 8537777 or
14088537777.
(space)—A dial termination that defines or delimits the end of the dial string. The
space is mandatory. If the phone encounters an X or a comma (,) before the space,
the characters are treated as part of dial string.
, (comma)—A 2-second pause that is inserted for each comma in the string.
X (wait)—Awaits user input and acknowledgement
• The “Waiting for more digits input. When done, press OK to continue” message displays.
• The user manually enters DTMF signals by using the dial pad.
• The user selects OK, acknowledging the transmission of the manual entry is complete.
• The phone sends any DTMF signals defined by DTMF_string.
• The phone executes the next parameter. If there are no more parameters in the dial string to execute, the phone exits to the main screen. The wait does not timeout; the wait prompt window is not dismissed until user confirms the wait prompt or the call is ended either by the user or ended by the
remote device.
DTMF_string—The DTMF signals that a user is sends to a remote device after the call is connected. The phone cannot send signals other than valid DTMF signals.
Example
18887225555 ,,5552X2222
A speed dial entry triggers the phone to dial 18887225555. The space indicates the end of the dial string. The phone waits 4 seconds (2 commas), and then sends the DTMF signals 5552. A message is displayed, prompting the user to manually dial DTMF signals. When the user has finished dialing the DTMF signals, the user selects OK to confirm the manual DTMF signal transmission is complete. The phone sends the DTMF signals 2222.

Push notification not working in Mail on 3GS after iOS4 update

My auto notification of email has stopped working on my 3GS after I updated to iOS4. I have a MobileMe subscription and it works fine on my G5, MacBook Pro and iPad.
Not sure why it is refusing to work on my iPhone 3GS. Is anybody else experiencing this issue?

2. Bite the bullet - Restore as new without using a backup (which may have corrupted data/settings.

IPhone 3Gs after iOS4 update

I had no trouble updating to iOS4 which is great and I love but the only problem I'm having is my battery life. It doesn't seem to last long anymore. Given I am on my phone a little more frequent after the update but it just seems to be draining my battery a lot faster. I turned on and off my phone/ I restarted it by pressing the home and sleep button at the same time but so far It hasn't shown any improvement. Any ideas on what I could do if anything?

I had the same fault after I did the upgrade. I just reconnected and forced a re-sync in itunes.

Slow and unresponsive after iOS4 update

While the new features are nice, the slow down is not.
My 3G now seems slow and unresponsive in all Apps and generally.
Not very happy with that to be honest, don't see why it should be slower.

I have had the same problem with my iPhone using the iOS4 update. I reset my iPhone and it was still slow. I also fully turned it off and waited a whole day and turned it on (resulted in a minor improvement to speed). I can't use multi tasking etc because I don't have the 3GS phone. I also had an issue where I couldn't open up iTunes!! I pressed the icon, and the phone froze in the iTunes screen without displaying any albums etc..... then it returned to the home screen. I repeated the process 3 times with the same result. It did eventually open up on the 4th time and played a song. I am not very impressed with the performance of my iPhone after the software update and will give it another week or so to see if Apple release any "fixes" after that I'm going to revert back to the old software.

Mobileme @me account changed to @mac after IOS4 update and backup restore

Updated iphone 3GS to IOS4
noticed today, since i never use it, the mobileme account on
my iphone has the following settings
Nmae Luis
address [email protected] (greyed out)
SMTP smtp.mac.com (greyed out)
password .........
I can edit the name field and password field, but not
the Address or Password. I have never had an @mac email,
I can access my email at mobileme.com with correct [email protected] email.
Only thing I have done is update to IOS4 on wednesday and restore from backup, which I did just before the update. The newest email in the account is dated Monday.
P.S. i signed up for the mobileme calendar beta on Tuesday

Support had no idea, they just had me delete and recreate the account. So, everything back to normal, just no clue how my account went from @me to @mac.

Lost wifi after ios4 update

Can anyone at Apple explain what to do if wifi option is totally unavailable on iphone 3g after ios4 upgrade? Is it a hardware or software issue?

IOS4 Update on 3GS New Restore- "iPhone (Name) is in use by another user"

The initial problem I encountered on my 3GS to iOS4 update was I couldn't do ANYTHING that required the network, e.g. Facebook, Safari, certain apps, youtube and more. I was told by an Apple in-store rep to restore AS NEW IPHONE instead of using my backup info, so I did.
It works almost perfectly now. However, I just attempted to make a new playlist and sync it to my iPhone and I am getting the message "iphone (Name of my iPhone) is in use by another user on this computer"
The problem with this is that I am the ONLY user on this computer and have been since I have had it.
My photos will sync through iPhoto but iTunes is no longer recognizing my iPhone's name or the device. I am not sure what caused this, but any help would be awesome.
Since the new update I changed the name of my iphone but I do not see why that would be an issue.

1. You are thread-jacking. Kangdequan has an open question and adding unrelated questions to that, will not help him at all. Kangdequan, please see below.
2. There have been countless articles in the last few years explaining why some countries have iTunes music stores and others not. The main reason is something called copyright.
3. There is an Apple app store in the Philippines.
4. There are many other sources of music.
Kandequan. It may be that something has become corrupted, but I also see a problem in that the iPhone is only supposed to sync with one computer. Trying to sync with a second one will not work.
There are a number of things you may need to do now, but first decide which computer is to be the one that you sync with: the master, if you will.
Whichever one you decide on, you need to make sure that all files point to that and there is a process written up by a user "wjosten".
You may also need to follow the Apple suggestions for making iTunes recognise your device.

Mail Keep asking For my AOL Mail Password after last update

Every once in a while (about 3 times a day) mail pops up asking for my aol password (i never chanegd it). It even saves my password when the message pops up all i have to do is hit save.
Ive searched the net up and down but what i found works for a short period of time, Then it pops up again.
This is what pops up in console, ive blanked out my info. I dont know what twitter and facebook have anything to do with it but hopefully someone can help me fix this problem, its very annoying. especially since it always worked fine untill i updated.
This started happening after i updated to 10.9.1 which is odd because this and the previous update was supposed to fix this alot of osx mail problems that i never had in the first relase of mavericks.
Thanks in advance!

This is what keeps popping up.

After iOS5 update iPhone 3GS doesn't seem to work properly?

update including backup took very long and it was also interrupting at least 2 times.
Now after the update sms and phone list was deleted and some apps are much slower - e.g. it takes a few seconds until the keyboard pops up and then while typing the letters are also delayed.
And the remote control on the original headphones won't work now.
I have the impression the software is too much to handle for the 3GS.
Anybody with similar experience and possible solution?
cheers, Carola

Native Camera App missing after iOS4 update

Hi
After the update to iOS4 (iPhone 3G) I moved all my camera apps into a folder named 'photography' and the naitive camera app has disapeared! I have tried restore and it came back, but went when I synced to my iPhone backup.
Just read the other thread and tried the 'restore home screen layout' but still nowhere to be seen! Have tried searching spotlight for it and nothing!
Please Help! None of my other camera apps work without it.
Thanks
Simon

Just wanted to add my name to this topic.
I'd read elsewhere that it is thought to be caused by adding and removing Exchange settings. I noticed it was gone after I re-enabled my googlemail via Exchange protocols ... but that is probably a coincidence.
I think I may have to do a iOS4 reinstallation, but not restore from backup and configure the phone as new. Aaargh.

Notes app not holding changes since new iOS4 update for 3GS

I didn't notice it right after the update, but I've noticed that recently my Notes app (the one that came on the iPhone) isn't working correctly. I use this app for a ton of things, & it's VERY frustrating for it to not work. So I've got a note I've been trying to update, & when I make a change, it doesn't stick. It completely goes away, as if I never made any changes. But this problem seems to be random, because as far as I can tell, another note of mine seems to be letting me make changes. SOMEONE PLZ HELP!!!

Is there a way to get the notes that were created in my email acct folders into my iPhone folder? I didn't even realize I had these different folders until a few notes after the update. How does it even determine which folder it saves a new note into anyways?!?! Well thank you for your reply. I think this will solve my initial problem. Now to just figure out how to get all my notes into my iPhone folder for notes. sigh ...

No songs on iphone 3gs after ios4 update

I have just gone to shuffle my songs on my iphone 3gs, but the songs tab of my ipod is telling me there are no songs. I go to the album tab and all of my albums are there and I can still play the songs...
Slightly weird and annoying... anyone else experienced this?

I had the same fault after I did the upgrade. I just reconnected and forced a re-sync in itunes.

There is no SIM card installed after IOS update on 3GS

Hey!
I just upgraded my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5. All went well, then at the end, it asks me a few set ups (like language, Location, and WiFi settings).
After that, it attempts to activate, and fails, giving me the following error in iTunes: "There is no SIM card installed in the iPhone you are attempting to activate."
Problem is, there IS a SIM card in the phone, I tried taking it out, and putting it back in, tried with another SIM, tried the SIM in another phone, worked fine, just not the iPhone!
I would appreciate any help!
Also, the phone was Jailbroken before, and the SIM worked fine. Just not now, when it tries to activate.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO GO BACK TO THE BEST PREVIOUS UPDATE OF IOS4. THAT"S ALL I EXPECT NOW!

@wendy191,
Have you jailbroken your phone before?
If you have, I don't see any way you could go back to IOS4 (4.3.3 or 4.3.5) (However, experts might be able to help you)
When you jailbreak you iPhone you update your baseband to iPad's Baseband i.e. 6.50 (something like that) & once that happens there's no going back (at least a legitimate way) unless you do what this guy says.

Watch this video on youtube. Listen to what he says & you can surely get through the activation.
