Read here about the Zoom feature, which you probably activated accidentally:

  • Why does my iPhone screen glitch up?

    My iPhone at times does this random thing where the screen glitches. My screen ends up looking a bit like the crystal have burnt with weird multi-coloured vertical lines all over my screen, making the iPhone unusable for 5 mins before returning to its normal self. Sometimes it fades out onto a black screen and every time this occurs, I have to reset my iPhone and it's back to normal.
    I'm unsure if it's coincidental, but many times this happens, I have either lost service or wifi/both. Also this tends to happen when I'm low on battery, just charging my phone or have just finished charging. This usually happens once a day or every 2-3 days sometimes.
    I've tried restoring my phone and all but it doesn't seem to have done anything.
    Does anyone know how to fix this or know what is happening?

    I forgot to mention. Usually after the glitch and when my iPhone returns to normal, the apps on the bottom row of the page (on all pages) all go to the next page e.g. if you have 3 full pages of apps pre glitch, after this glitch you will have 6, 3 containg 4 rows of apps and another 3 pages containg 1 row. I don't know if this gives an indication to the root of the problem.

  • Why does my iPhone 4s camera take smaller resolution photos?

    Randomly my iPhone 4s camera will take pictures of a resolution less than the maximum 8MP, and I can't seem to understand why that is.  Is this an automatic setting that Apple has put in place that adjusts due to lighting?  I've noticed outdoor shots or those inside with a lot of lighting are more likely to have the full 8MP pixels, but when used in lower lighting settings, my pictures come through at say - 1280 x 960.  What might I do to correct this (if anything)?

    I have noticed this when zooming - are you doing that?
    When I am not zoomed in, I get the correct resolution of 2592x1936 (5MP, i4)

  • Why does my iphone restart every time I try moving an app across the screen

    Since updating to the iOS6 last night, any time I hold an app down to make it wiggle, to move it to another screen-- it lets me do so, then when I press the home button to make them stop wiggling --- it simple restarts the iPhone and when it comes back on, it's exactly how it was BEFORE I moved anything. Holding down the top button and home button at the same time, also no longer gives me the option to turn off/restart my phone. What is going on.

    This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
    So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs?

  • Why does the iphone have such a small headphone jack!?

    The headphone jack on the iphone is not wide enough for any of my non apple headphones to fit. in fact the official apple cable i have for the ipod video does not even fit... this does not make much sense to me.
    also, on a side note, not being able to manually manage songs in itunes is very lame.

    Yeah, slight bummer..
    I have a pair of Shure E2c's that wouldn't fit until i took out the ol' razor and carefully trimmed the rubber back about a 1/4" so they would fit. If you can do this without destroying the integrity of the headphone, give it a shot. Or you could purchase an adaptor that works just as well..
    I chose the cheap way out.. I already spent $600 for the phone and $100 on the headphones, so I didn't want to spend another $10 for an adaptor.
    As far as manually managing music, I really don't see what the big deal is. I created playlists that I want synced and if I want to change something, I simply change it within the playlist and resync.. Does the same.. Don't see a real advantage to manually managing. That's just me though.

  • Why does my iPhone screen dim when I send text messages?

    Whenever I'm texting someone and I tap the voice button to use talk to text, the screen dims to black on my 5s, if my face gets close to the phone.
    Also, if I put the phone up to my ear or near my face whenever I have text message convo window open, the phone beeps and dims. It starts trying to record a memo or something?
    I'm jailbroken and I have never seen this happen before. Any ideas on what is going on?
    Would appreciate any help! - bud

    We really do not support jail broken devices as it violates the terms of this site. That said the dimming when the phone gets close to your face is a normal function via a proximity sensor to stop inadvertent button triggers

  • Why does my iMac screen seem to be flickering everytime I launch an app since Mavericks update?

    Am I the only one who is having this flickering thing (for 1 sec) when an app is launched? This only started right after the Mavericks update, I don't know if it's iMac related or if everyone who updated to Mavericks got this.

    Do you have any external drives attached that may have an older version of iTunes on them?
    I wonder whether reinstalling (one more time) using the standalone installer rather than the App Store may help get round the problem:

  • Why does my iphone crash each time I start a new app?

    A couple of weeks ago, my iPhone (4S, newest iOS), started crashing I'd say once every four times I try to open an app. I'll open the app and within a second- the screen goes black, the white wheel comes up and it goes back to the lock screen.
    I've tried powering off and restarting, but still doing it.
    Any idea of what I should try next?
    Thanks!

    Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.
    Try all of these.

  • Why does my iphone have little flashing lines after opening a web page?

    So last night I was reading on my phone, and I wanted to look something up that had to do with my book. I opened up Safari, and clicked on the first link, I think it led to tumblr, and I waited for the page to be pulled up. After about 10 minutes, my whole phone froze up and I couldn't do anything. The web page suddenly faded to these grey flickering lines which stayed on my phone for over an hour. I didn't know what to do so I pulled it off the charger and let it die. In the morning when I pulled my phone out and checked it. It had the little charger on the black screen but the lines were there too. I plugged it back in and all is well except the lines are still on my screen. Did I do something?

    If you want to try something to see if its software related is to Restart, Reset, then Restore. Do each one then test the phone before proceeding to the next in that order.
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?

    Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?
    The screen isn't broken because it works after i turn the device off and back on, but after it goes black once, it's only white again.
    But it takes the touches although it's only white, because I can answer my phone when I slide my finger on the bottom of the screen, eventhough there in not the button to see.
    This is so weird. I have already done everything I can think of that might help. But I cannot think of anything that might be causing it, because nothing has happened to the device.

    Let me know if I should start a new discussion instead of opening a new topic here.
    My wife's iPhone is the same vintage as mine 3Gs, but has never had the battery problem.  Its affliction instead is that it cannot detect WiFi networks unless it is quite close to the source.  Often, when my iPhone not only detects but shows a maximum cells connection with a network, hers cannot detect the network at all.  In contrast, her iPhone seems to detect ourcellular carrier just as well as mine does.
    Is there any help for this affliction?

  • Why does the iphone allow itself to be powered off while the screen is locked?

    Why does the iphone allow itself to be powered off whlie in the lock screen?  This makes it impossible to track if stolen does it not?  Seems like an assinine concept!

    It does, but there's little we regular mortals can do about it. However, you now have something to contribute to Apple via the Feedback Link!
