What is cleaning on my iPhone?
When I close an app on my phone, the icon says "Cleaning..." Then quickly goes away. The app still works, but I want to know what this is
Ever since iOS 5 and the introduction of iCloud, that sometimes happens as iOS tries to clean up App caches and tmp files to make backups as small and compact as possible.
It has been reported to occur more frequently or take longer if your device storage is at or near full.
But it is a normal function of iOS, not an error or abberation.

HT201401 what if i dropped my iphone in water
what if i dropped my iphone in water?
Chesterapple-the day before last Christmas, I dunked my 4 into a full glass of Coke. :/ I popped it out immediately, but all ports had gotten submerged. Hoping for best, but expecting the worst, because I ruined a Touch this way-I went into immediate damage control. Powered off the phone, dried with a soft towel as much as I could, then wiped the sticky Coke off. I even put the hair dryer to it's 'butt port'. Then, within minutes-I had it submerged in a baggie of white rice AND about 5-6 of those silica gel little packets that come in shoe boxes? You know what I'm referring to? Luckily, I keep all my shoes in their original box, lol. The silica draws water out of things. So, I put the phone, now covered over it's head with rice & silica packs-in a dark cabinet, sitting on it's back, completely submerged.
My contract was up anyhow, and the 26th, Best Buy offered upgrades for 5C's for free....so, yeah, went for that! Lol. I still checked in on my 4 about a week later...it was not well, turned on, but downhill from there, so I powered it off, and gave it up for dead. I was upset because I was going to use it just for an iPod. But, I still set it back up in the rice cocoon..why not?
About mid-Feb, I noticed it again in the cabinet & decided to see if it ever healed. It was half sticky and tons dusty with rice, plus some grains had gotten caught up in the butt port. So, cleaned it up again, gently got rice out. Held my breath, powered......and it came on! Not only that-it was PERFECTLY FINE. All my settings/wallpapers/contacts/apps/msgs, everything. Fine. Expected it to wack out any minute....left it on a few days to see. But it was fine, good as new! I deleted all off it, and now use it as an iPod, perfectly. Oh, one issue-water damage light came on and apparently will never leave. No biggie, since I'm keeping it. So, there's another miraculous back from the dead, but certainly don't expect it-not the norm. But, possible! -

How do I get a new iTunes account to create a backup of what's on my wifes iPhone without deleting all the photos and stuff?
Well, I believe I found it.....
When I connect the IPhone the device name pops up under devices in the selection column. Right click on the device name and select "Back-up".....
If this is incorrect please let others know as I won't be able to because my wife will have destroyed all computers in the house for losing her data. -
HT4623 what is wrong when my iphone says, an error occurred while checking for updates
what is wrong with my iphone,when i try to make software updates, i get a error message
Try rebooting your iPad and then see if you have any success updating.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -

I don't know what's wrong with my iPhone, I can listen to music but if I try to take a video you can't hear my voice, if I take a voice memo you can hear my voice.
try exiting the app and double clicking the home button. the multitasking apps will show up. delete all of them by holding them down and pushing the red circle (dont worry that doesnt remove them from the phone, just completely closes the app and makes your device run faster) then power off your phone by holding down thw lock button and sliding the red arrow when it comes up. wait about 5 seconds after its completely off and turn it back on. then try using the mic. hope this helps

Ok... here's your answer... you have no idea what you're talking about. iPhones are not made in Singapore. They are made in China and Brazil.
Is that soon enough for you? -
What's wrong with my iphone 4 battery after ios 7 ?
Literally:
What's wrong with my iphone 4 battery after ios 7 ?
I've tried all tuning tricks - nothing changed.This is not a current feature of any iphone, it never has been! I've heard that there are apps in the app store that allow you to transfer contacts but i'm not sure about anything else! Again you would need to look in the appstore, but again it will be very specific to that app if there are any at all!

I can't print using airprint from my iPhone 4. Everything with the phone and the printer and router are up to date. I can print from my iPad 2 with no problems. What's wrong with the iPhone 4?
I just wanted to leave a note that it's working now. I'm not sure if it was the latest iTunes update that got it working or that i decided to start a new library instead of using the one i had backed up on Windows 8 (it didn't occur to me to check using the old library when i re-installed iTunes). But if anyone is having this problem, it might be worth trying again with a new installation of iTunes to see if the latest update works for you, and if not, try using a fresh library instead of a backup (by fresh library i mean discard your old library completely and start a new library, not just restore as new iPhone, a whole new library).

Does anyone know if my G3S Iphone will sync Itunes on my MAC Power PC G4, OSI0.4.11? If it will, what operting system does the Iphone need?
My apologies, I read your post the wrong way. I see now that the original poster was confused about the specs and you were simply responding with the appropriate info.
I've gotten defensive after reading the forums. The forums are full of posters just looking to prove someone wrong or stupid, rather than being helpful. I shouldn't have assumed you were one of those people. Sorry.
I did my homework and discovered that my PowerPC will run Leopard. It can be purchased for $129 by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE. This is much cheaper than replacing my laptop.
I hope to upgrade my Mac soon, though! Can't believe this thing is still ticking. I love Apple.
