Why does my iphone steady say "searching"...i erased everything and now it wont activate because it says "Searching" in the top left corner..PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!
1. Close all inactive apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo.

Why does my iphone 6 show 700 songs on it and itunes says that there are no songs on my phone?
why does my iphone 6 show 700 songs on it and itunes says that there are no songs on my phone?
The "streaming" that iTunes Match does is not the traditional streaming we are used to. iOS 6 actually downloads the song to non-permanent memory on the iOS device in a cache. The advantage of this is it then makes the tracks available for listening to again without having to stream it again. You can clear out the cache by either power cycling the device or disabling/enabling iTM. I prefer doing the former.

Yesterday morning, my phone decided to kick me of my network and not let me back in. In the top left corner, it just says 'Searching...'. I have tried restarting my phone, resetting all settings and resetting network settings and nothing has decided to work for me. I then went to reset my phone but it will not let me log out of 'Find my Phone'. Therefore it did not allow me to reset my phone.
Please can somebody help.
Thanks.You'll have to unlock the phone in icloud.com/find to be able to get pass the activation lock.

I bought an iphone 3gs on o2 which was working fine till i restored it (which put ios5 on to it) now it wont activate, it keeps saying on itunes no sim inserted and on the iphone it has searching then says no service! Any ideas what i can do as cant get any further!
Some SIM cards were affected by iOS updates. Either contact O2 to get a replacement SIM or pop into a local phone shop and pick up a replacement SIM.
Once you have your new SIM, O2 have a swap my SIM page on their web site here:
http://swapmysim.o2.co.uk/
Follow the instructions on the O2 page and you should be up and running.
O2 do say it can take up to 24 hrs for SIM to be active, but I found it usually only takes half an hour or so before the new SIM is active.
Hope this helps. -
my iphone4 says searching in the top left corner and i can not make calls or get calls how do i fix it so i have my service back
you can try a reset, hold down the home/sleep button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait fro the phone to boot back up.
if that doesn't work contact your cell provider -
My iPhone 5 have the glass popping sound when I press on the top left corner of my phone but I don't know why, I don't see any visibility of the glass coming out. My friends all told me to not exchange because after all the software is perfectly fine.
My phone just turned 2 months old. But in Singapore as long your phone is under one year warranty I can still go for an exchange at the respective telco, but my friends all suggest me to not change now cause after changing it'll be a refurbished set instead of a brand new one.

Why is there a strange grey object on the top left corner of my iPhone?I have included a photo
Why is there a strange grey object on the top left corner of my iPhone? I have included a photo. It randomly appears and disappears.
Hey Scott! Like I said, I thought I had done some damage -- even though the drop was just a couple of inches that was my very first thought, but when it came and went with which app I was in (or not) I knew it wasn't a damaged SCREEN. So I wondered if it was a different damaged part, memory or some such.
When I saw that others had the exact same shape, I could only imagine that perhaps the phone was indicating it was running a diagnostic, had been forcefully dropped, had a faulty/damaged accelerometer or some other purposeful object. It clearly wasn't random, it was a definite shape.
Hey Paul! I'm hoping they've seen the issue and tried replacing a few parts or something... Ya never know. As a (mostly) retired guy I have the time!
I also mentioned in a kind of oblique way that I had enabled the Kanji keyboard. I should also mention that I have the field strength test enabled so that I am able to see the -db numbers instead of the antenna bars. That's right in the same area, so it could be related.... maybe... or not. The screen was unlocked when this happened and I'm guessing I pushed a whole lotta buttons and/or icons as I was grabbing at it... I wonder if it is possibly an easter egg of some sort -- just the right combo of touches. Then again, it bounced right on THAT corner... LOL
That's the only stuff I've ever done to the phone. It's never been jailbroken or anything like that. It has taken a few falls in its lifetime but none resulting in any obvious damage.
It's a 32GB iPhone 3Gs and it is now 2 years old (bought June 27, 2009.) I'm just happy that it seems to be OK. While Apple's stock may be the largest market cap in the US, my portfolio sure isn't. -
After doing the network reset on my iphone 4, the top left corner of the screen which usually displays my carriers name just keeps saying 'searching'. I have tried looking elsewhere at this site for a solution to my problems but I'm still coming up empty.
Can someone help me PLEASE!Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.) -
On my iPhone when I go on phone to view my contacts on the top left corner there is a circle with a arrow ( like a refresh icon ), just want to know what is it?
That's exactly what it does, refresh your contacts. As an example if you add a contact on your Mac or iPad and you use iCloud to sync them altogether, then this can be used to refresh the contacts on your iPhone.

Why is the top left corner wheel constantly spinning while in gmail?
Why is the top left corner wheel constantly spinning while in gmail? I am simply in my Mail app, not doing anything!
I misspoke, it actually happens in other spots, too. Here's an attempt at a screen shot. Notice how it's blank in a part.

hi
Since about 2 weeks ago for no apparent reason, the internet on my iPad suddenly stopped working (when I open Safari, it says: "Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the Internet"), even though the Wifi icon in the top left corner still shows full signal. However, I noticed when I went into Wifi settings (Settings>Wifi) that there is no checkmark next to my network name (only the spinning circle icon, as if it's trying to process something). This only happens at home (I can browse the internet while connected to Wifi at university). My other Apple devices (MacBook Pro and iPhone 4S) work perfectly fine at home.
I've tried resetting my router, restarting my iPad, resetting Network Settings on my iPad, and tried following Hynes' instructions on this thread:https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2453187?start=15&tstart=0, but nothing has worked so far (although I have to admit that I found the instructions on that thread somewhat confusing, so there is a chance that I accidentally did not follow them properly).
Could someone please help? It'd be VERY much appreciated. -
MY 2 week old IPad 2 suddenly stopped receiving a cell signal from Verizon and in the top left corner of the screen it says Invalid SIM where it used to say 3G. Why did this happen and how do I fix it? Still works on WIFI...
Why? Who knows. You could try reseating the SIM to see if this helps. If not contact Verizon.
