Why does every iPhone and iPad ring when somebody calls only 1 device? This started today.
Our iPhones and iPads have been working fine until today when somebody called one device in our house, every iPhone and iPad in the house rang. Why WHY WHY!!?!! I have
MacBook Pro 10.10.2
iPhone 4S 7.1.1
iPhone 4 8.1
iPhone 5 7.1.2
iPhone 6 8.2
iPad 2 8.1.1
iPad 3 8.1.2
but the Macbook doesn't ring.
This call was made using FaceTime for which the other devices were set to receive.

i can't download or update free apps on my ipad or iphone. i can log in to my i-store account on my laptop and download stuff. when i try on the iphone or ipad i keep getting apple ID disabled message. i had to enter in my account and new password to get to this community site so the password is working. but when i enter the updated password on the iphone or ipad i keep getting...apple ID disabled. thanks
When you try to update the app, is the Apple ID that comes up the same as the Apple ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store?
Have you tried any troubleshooting steps? e.g. log in on another device, reset password etc. -
TS3992 Why does my iPhone and iPad say "backup could not be completed"?
Why do I get the message "backup could not be completed after about 5 minutes"?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
First check that your device is correctly connected to the wifi/internet (settings > wifi)
If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again.
If this doesn't help, try turning off some items for back up in a pattern to try to establish if your problem is being caused by specific data on your device.
Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

Why does my iphone 3gs shut down when battery shows 80%. a couple of months ago is shut down at 60% but has continually gotten worse. this was before 5.0. i took it to a repair man and he tried a used battery, a new battery, and the original battery. nothing helped. 5.01 didnt help either. What is my problem?
Fully discharge the battery (till it shuts down and won't turn on) and then fully recharge it (100%). This will recalibrate the battery meter. You may need to do this a few times.

I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago. I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam. I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase.
Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions. Could you please explain?
I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items. -
Why does my IPhone loss WIFI connection when I leave the room? When other mobile devices stay connected?
I can not send text messages to other IPhones if I do not have wifi or 3G on, the texts are sent as emails.Hey Linders1987,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that you are experiencing issues with Wi-Fi on your iPhone 5. The following resource may provide a solution:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/TS1398
Wi-Fi disconnects or signal strength is less than expected
Move closer to the Wi-Fi router (access point).
Check for sources of potential interference.
Remove any case, stand, or other accessories from your iOS device and see if signal strength improves.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings including
- previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
- recently used Bluetooth accessories
- VPN and APN settings
Thanks,

Why does my iphone keep turning off when i put my pass code in
why does my iphone keep turning off when i put my pass code in
Hi ManiPictures,
If your iPhone shuts down unexpectedly during use, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it - Apple Support
As your iPhone's operating system is already up to date with iOS 8.1.1, follow the last instruction -
If you still see this issue after updating, contact Apple Support.

My iPhone won't ring when the caller is "Unknown". How do I make it ring?
Do you even see the call come in on the phone? Do you see the missed call in your list? Or do you just get a voice mail.
If it never even shows up in your missed calls list, contact your carrier. Perhaps you have anonymous call blocking on your account. (I wish I did...) -
Sometimes E61i is not ringing, when somebody calle...
Hi,
I purchased Nokia E61i Phone in USA recently and update the firmware. After update the the firmware, sometimes my phone is ringing when somebody called. The calls are displayed in missed calls list. Due to that I am loosing my incoming calls. Could you please let me know how to resolve the issue.
Regards
Peddi
Message Edited by peddi on 17-Jul-2008 08:27 PMTry this - it won't erase any of your settings, but it may clear up the buggy behavior:
Power down phone
Hold volume up/down & power simultaneously until you see the Boot Mode Selection Menu
Use volume down to navigate to 'Recovery', use volume up to select
Should see screen with triangle and exclamation point next to an Android
Press volume up/down simultaneously to go into system recovery
Use volume rocker to navigate to 'wipe cache' and use power button to select
Once finished, use volume rocker to navigate to 'reboot system now' and use power button to select
Post back and let us know if this did the trick. If not, we can look further... -

Why does my contacts appear as unknown when receiving calls
Why does my contacts appear as unknown when receiving calls
Anytime you have photos in the Camera Roll album on your iPad your computing assumes you will want to copy them. If you don't want to copy those photos then just quit Image Capture or whatever other program starts when you connect. Then start iTunes and go from there.
