Why does the latest iOS have so much trouble connecting with Bluetooth

My Bluetooth will not connect to sound docks.

I too am having bluetooth problems since ios 7.1.1 (iPhone 5s). phone will pair to car contacts show up but when I try to make a call it reverts back to handset. no way to overide. It worked perfect until update. I have tried unpairing/ forgetting device but no luck. It has no problem pairing!
Is there an easy way to revert back to ios 7.1?

Why does the iPad 3 have so much lag on ios7?

My iPad 3 has so much lag on ios7 i cant believe apple would pass this i have restored twice and set up as new ipad and still does not fix the lag. It takes at least 10 seconds to change a wallpaper even rotating the ipad lags also safari is really bad wish i didn't update now. Ios7 is smooth as butter on my iPhone 5 how could apple get it so wrong on the iPad! There is alot of reports of ios7 being laggy on the iPad 4 and mini aswell. I cant seem to get rid of the lag no matter what i try does anyone have any suggestions? Apple?

Hello,
It is luckily that an iOS 7 update will be coming out this week. As it's 7.0, there is a lot of bug so just wait to you update for a 2 week. Try restarting your iPad by holding the power button and the home button down at the same time till you see a apple, that will help.
Please reply if you have any more questions.
Kind Regards,

Why does my iPhone 5 have so much trouble with network connections?

My iPhone 5 cannot hold a consistent network connection. It jumps all over the place. Back and forth from 4G (att 3G) to EVDO to nothing. I am in areas where my old iPhones have had no problems. I drop calls and have failed downloads everyday. Not what i expected...

I live in NJ. I've had every version of the iPhone. iPhone 5 is the worst. Or is it that AT&T is the worst? I'm still trying to decipher if the problem is the phone or the AT&T network. At times I'll have no bars. My iPhone 5 will go from no bars to the Edge network or vice versa. And I'll have to shut the phone off & turn it back on just to get the bars & 4G back. I don't use the LTE because it drains the **** out of the battery. Another thing I've noticed is that I don't get all my text messages & voicemail notices, at times, hours late. This is very frustrating since I haven't had this problem with any other iPhone that I ever owned. Please help! SIM card change before exchanging the iphone out? PLEASE HELP!

Why does my MacBook Pro have so much trouble playing video people send me?

Whether it's embedded, or a link to YouTube or some other site, for the past week or longer I've been having great trouble getting video -- even at the lowest quality setting -- to play straight through.
Is it Mountain Lion?
Is it something else I downloaded, or should have?
Is it my ISP?
How do I find out where to point the finger? (I figure it can't possibly be me . . . right?)

Your situation is not unique. Another long thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1758587?start=90&tstart=0 suggests that a solution is not yet forthcoming.
You can, however, partially remedy the situation by (1) making sure your system is not too warm or hot - this really reduces the life of your battery; (2) Keep your unit charged for portions of the day; display quality is better while powered, and battery will keep more of its power; (3) In some cases, keeping your MBP connected to USB cables can leech power from your system; detach all cables before sleeping.
Of course, this won't solve the problem, but it will improve things. If it's any consolation, many (but not all) Windowz units report the same problem.
Post here if you have any comments, advice, or even feedback!

Agreed. Even the iPhone has multiple built-in keyboards to choose from.

I have an Ipad and an Ipod Touch 5th gen both on the latest firmwares but they won't connect via bluetooth whenever I try even though both shows that the devices are discoverable. I need help!

I have an Ipad and an Ipod Touch 5th gen both on the latest firmwares but they won't connect via Bluetooth whenever I try even though both shows that the devices are discoverable. I also tried connecting them with my Bluetooth enabled laptop but it also didn't worked. Because of the Bluetooth not working I also can't enable airdrop.

What model iPad?
What model computer and OS version>
AirDrop requires:
What you need
To share content with AirDrop, both people need one of these devices using iOS 7 or later, or a Mac with OS X Yosemite:

Does the latest iPad have flash Player built in?

Does the latest iPad support Flash Player? Is it built in?

No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash. Adobe is not providing Flash for Apple iOS devices, and they no longer provide Flash for any other cellular phones. Flash is officially gone.
Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
A sample of Apps that can display some Flash content:
1. Puffin
2. SkyFire
3. Photon Flash
4. Browse2Go
5. Swifter
Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."
Download the Facebook app from the iTunes Store. Sign in with your Facebook ID and Password and you won't require flash to play videos.

Is it just me or does the latest iOS drain batteries significantly ?

Since loading the latest iOS on Tuesday I have been struggling to keep my stuff charged for the whole day. I've spoken to others with similar equipment and they are suffering as well. Is this problem recognised by Apple and is there a fix on the horizon soon?

Your welcome, good luck,
also, I just found this post on another thread that may assist you as well.

Why does the callender not have a four weekly?

Why does the lion logo have spots on his nose? I don't think lions EVER have spots like this. If photoshopped, why?

why does the lion desktop pic (a beautiful lion for sure) have spots on his nose....they never do! This just ruins a beautiful animal face...why not just leave it alone? Looks like a bad photoshop job...done by someone who has never seen a real lion.....but why?

I though you were joking.
Anyway, do a quick search of "Lion" in google images
I see spots.
Here's the desktop photo:
Interesting though, it looks like the spots were removed in the photo used in the App store:

Why does the new MacBook Pro 13 no longer come with a graphics card?

Why does the new MacBook Pro no longer come with a graphics card? Or at least make it so you can opt for one.

I know how you feel. Your MacBook Pro has integrated graphics 384 MB or 512 MB. If you are a gamer, creative professional or just want more VRAM get a 15 inch MacBook Pro with up to 1 gig of VRAM or a windows gaming laptop with up to 16 gigs of VRAM (a ridiculous amount!). If you get a windows pc, you can always install virtual box. There is no point in buying a 13 inch MacBook Pro unless you need a lightweight laptop with all of the extra "goodies". There is also no possible way to change the graphics unless you know how to "unhook" the card from the processor and install a new one. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Why does the latest version of iMovie not have an option of sharing with iDVD?

How are you supposed to burn a DVD using the latest version of iMovie? I've always had the option to share to iDVD and now it's not there.

It is there but you don't want to use it as it will degrade the quality of the movie. Instead use the Share ➙ Media Browser option.
Then in iDVD go to the Media/Movies section and drag the movie into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones that may be there:

Why does hprof=heap=dump have so much overhead?

I udnerstand why the HPROF option heap=sites incurs a massive performance overhead; it has to intercept every allocation and record the current call stack.
However, I don't understand why the HPROF option heap=dump incurs so much of a performance overhead. Presumably it could do nothing until invoked, and only then trace from the system roots the entire heap.
Can anyone speak to why it doesn't work that way?
- Gordon @ IA

Traditionally agents like hprof had to be loaded into the virtual machine at startup, and this was the only way to capture these object allocations. The new hprof in the JDK 5.0 release (Tiger) was written using the newer VM interface JVM TI and this new hprof was mostly meant to reproduce the functionality of the old hprof from JDK 1.4.2 that used JVMPI. (Just FYI: run 'java -Xrunhprof:help' for help on hprof).
The JDK 5.0 hprof will at startup, instrument java.lang.Object.<init>() and all classes and methods that use the newarray bytecodes. This instrumentation doesn't take long and is just an initial startup cost, it's the run time and what happens then that is the performance bottleneck. At run time, as any object is allocated, the instrumented methods trigger an extra call into a Java tracker class which in turn makes a JNI call into the hprof agent and native code. At that point, hprof needs to track all the objects that are live (the JVM TI free event tells it when an object is freed), which takes a table inside the hprof agent and memory space. So if the machine you are using is low on RAM, using hprof will cause drastic slowdowns, you might try heap=sites which uses less memory but just tracks allocations based on site of allocation not individual objects.
The more likely run time performance issue is that at each allocation, hprof wants to get the stack trace, this can be expensive, depends on how many objects are allocated. You could try using depth=0 and see if the stack trace samples are a serious issue for your situation. If you don't need stack traces, then you would be better off looking at the pmap command that gets you an hprof binary dump on the fly, no overhead, then you can use jhat (or HAT) to browse the heap. This may require use of the JDK 6 (Mustang) release for this experiment, see http://mustang.dev.java.net for the free downloads of JDK 6 (Mustang).
There is an RFE for hprof to allow the tracking of allocations to be turned on/off in the Java tracker methods that were injected, at the Java source level. But this would require adding some Java APIs to control sun/tools/hprof/Tracker which is in rt.jar. This is very possible and more with the JVM TI interfaces.
If you haven't tried the NetBeans Profiler (http://www.netbeans.org) you may want to look at it. It does take an incremental approach to instrumentation and tries to focus in on the areas of interest and allows you to limit the overhead of the profiler. It works with the latest JDK 5 (Tiger) update release, see http://java.sun.com/j2se.
Oh yes, also look at some of the JVM TI demos that come with the JDK 5 download. Look in the demo/jvmti directory and try the small agents HeapTracker and HeapViewer, they have much lower overhead and the binaries and all the source is right there for you to just use or modify and customize for yourself.
Hope this helps.

Why does the latest version of Apple TV suck?

I still have my first Apple TV (1st gen) which is amazing. I just bought the latest one at xmas. It was working fine and then asked to be updated. So, we updated it. It won't work now. It asks to be plugged in to iTunes. And you need a new cable (micros USB) to do so. Why ruin something that worked? Why?

Apple tv ***** big... Chrome cast is soon much better!!
My apple tv has decided to stop working (its only 1yr and 1month old, surprise, surprise...) and it says i have to plug it in to itunes on my mac but i haven't got any cables to plug it in to my mac..... What cable do i need? what do i do?
Ps: i have Macbook pro retina, ipad air 2 128gb , iphone 6plus 128 gb, imac 27", apple tv, 3tb time capsule...... and all my friends say i should switch to android, and i think there right, there chrome cast is SOOOO much better..... and im not trolling... apple can check my account and i have spent thousands, and thousands and thousands on altos stuff and its a pile of ......
if i have to pay for the cable tu plug my apple tv in to my mac i will throw it away and get a 30$ chrome cast (the same than what the apple cable will cost..)
I liked apple because it all went great, but now it just ***** and not the good type of *****, the kind of ***** that makes you think why did i spend SOOOOO much money on hardware that is as crappy as googles but much much much more expensive than google....
Cable? no cable? chrome cast? or just change my hole ecosystem?
Any suggestions ?
