Why don't my restrictions stay the same

My son has an iPhone and every night when he tries to go online, it tells him that he's not allowed to do it and it always has something to do with the restrictions.  I have to go through the restrictions multiple times (enable & disable) before it will finally allow me online.
Does anyone know why his phone is now doing this and can anything be done?
Thank you,

Try restoring the phone but back up first, this sounds like a software issue and the only way to get rid of that is to obviously restore it!!

  • Why can't my bill stay the same each month?

    What would it take to have Comcast send me back to back bills that looks closely similar? I don't add new service to my account, I don't order any movie or show. Yet every month my bill looks completely different then my last bills. Why is that? - It is frustrating to budget your month only to have Comcast always messing it up because their bill seem to be calculated out of thin air and they come up with those random numbers that increase your agreed upon monthly amount.  - It is frustrating to have to call and be on the line for hours trying to make sense of their erronous bill every month?  - Surely theis is a systematic tactic by the company.

    I totally agree. Never order anything and my bill has never been the same in over 18 months!!! But, it is never a lesser amount, always MORE! How is this???

  • Deleting songs but memory space stays the same??

    Hi I've had my new Nano for about a week now. I've had a look at the apple iPod manual site and I've read through a lot of threads in this forum but I still can't seem to find an answer to my problem:
    When I transfer music to my iPod Nano I have no problem but if I want to delete any songs from my Nano list through iTunes my memory capacity still stays the same.
    Sorry I have a 2 gig Nano.
    If I fill my ipod with songs and then if I get sick of some of them and want to delete a few here and there why does my memory capacity stay the same? I have used the update to take my Nano back to factory settings just so I can put new songs in my Nano, but its annoying that I have to keep doing that.
    Am I doing it wrong? If you have any suggestions to help I would be happy.
    G.

    G'day Colin. Thanks for your reply.
    When I first got my Nano I filled it up to the max 2 gig. A few days later I deleted a few songs form my ipod but the disk space stayed the same. I then did a (Restoring iPod to factory settings) which wiped my Nano clean and back to a full 2 gigs. I
    I have manual syncing as I have about 20 gig of songs in iTunes and only a 2gig Nano.
    My question is: my Nano is maxed out with music to its full 2gig capacity if I were to delete say 20 songs from my Nano I should have some disk space available to add some different music but my nano's disk space doesn't change. If I delete all my music through I tunes the disk space in my Nano still says I have no space to add new songs.
    At the moment if I want to delete and add some new music I have to reset my ipod back to factory settings just to add new music to my ipod. Surely the must be some way I can just plug in my Nano delete a few tunes and add new ones without having to (Restoring iPod to factory settings) all the time I want to add new music.
    Thank you. Graham.

  • Why cant apple track my stolen iphone if it connects to the internet after reset. the IMEI number stays the same so i dont understand why they just dont shut it off and call me and the police to inform me about the whereabouts of the phone

    Hi, my iphone was stolen around a month ago. After the phone popped up on find my iphone in central london the police decided to be really helpful and instead going to get it they closed my case. Since then it has been offline because the "lovely" individual who stole it obviously reset it. I was just wondering why doesnt apple track phones through the IMEI number. The number stays the same, so if the phone connects to the network they should be able to know that its my stolen iphone. I just dont understand why they dont do that. They have a huge ecosystem, and if someone signs in to my iphone with their itunes account (which they pretty much have to in order to use most of the phones features) the IMEI number gets associated with that perticular account. Would it not be possible for them to realize that its my stolen phone?
    Thanks to anyone that answers.

    Your carrier can lock the IMEI number, try contacting them. At least you'll have the satifsaction of knowing the theif can't use it anymore. My guess is Apple doesn't block IMEI numbers because they don't want someone selling a phone without record, and then reporting it stolen and causing problems that way. But that's just a guess, I feel for ya. Good luck either way, if it's a locked phone you should be able to call the carrier it's locked to and have the IMEI blocked.

  • Why is it that when i upgrade my phone baseband stays the same

    i have updated my iphone, but the modem firmware stays the same.. why?

    It is unusual to want the baseband updated, as the baseband rarely has any meaningful additions, other than restricting the end user. I doubt that their have been any additions to the baseband since iOS 4 that you would want. But I know there are tools on the Web that can update the baseband as you would like to do, but you will have to search for these on your own, because they cannot be discussed on Apple supported forums.

  • When I sync my photos to iPhoto from my iPhone 4S it like saves about 200 on my phone. I really don't like that because they're like really old and stay the same... Can you take that setting off? Or just make it you most recent pictures instead?

    it had to do with Maverick/Aperture not supporting the same date formats as before in Smart Albums when I upgraded.
    Smart albums based on dates have always been problematic, if you use smart settings that require a date string to be entered. How the date string will be interpreted, will depend on your settings in the System Preferences > Language&Text > Advanced > Dates formats and the "Region".
    It is much safer to use "Calendar" rules in Aperture instead of "Date" rules with date-strings. Calendar rules will remain valid, if the region settings are changed in the System preferences.

  • Itunes claims it's downloading, but my balance stays the same and the song never shows up under 'purchased' Help, please!

    I have a balance of $29, and just yesterday redeemed a giftcard, so itunes appears to be working correctly, however whenever I attempt to purchase a song it still has me enter my apple ID and password, and the 'mini-player' states that it is 'purchasing' for about half a second, yet it has not purchased.....the song does not appear in my library, and my balance stays the same. I have just had my harddrive updated, so there should be no problems there, and everything else on itunes seems to be running normally. Any idea what could be going on? There are no error messages at all, it's just not purchasing anyhthing. VERY fustrating!

    Thanks for the info as well, also not looking for that answer...
    Friend has purchased several books on her iPhone and now has been lost when iOS was upgraded, this was done as phone was not functioning correctly (apps failing)...
    After successfully upgraded software, all audio books where removed.... Unable to go back to a early backup, as only appears to be backups valid from after upgarde of iOS...
    So now we are in situation of trying to get apple to allow us to reload them, which after paying for them (assume £100's worth)... Do you think friend will be very happy to find she has to fork another £100 to repurchase goods, because a BUG in your upgrade software?
    Yes you may say, its her fault for not backing up!  But I find it a little suprising you show little support for these people, most people know very little of computers and buy Mac products because we believe that they just work!!!
    I like other customer will seriously think very hard before my next Apple purchase, which has upto know included..  2 Mac Book Pros, 2 iPods , 2 IPhones, 1 Apple TV, 1 iPad.. (Currently have Mac Book Pro, iPad, and iPhone)...
    We are sold onto this idea that iCloud on the adds on TV, yet no where do I see in these adverts that doesn't work with Audiobooks? What else does it not work for? If I buy something on iTunes I EXPECT it to be backed up on your servers on iCloud, thats WHY I buy your kit as it is MEANT to work, not oh sorry its your fault go lump it! We pay a premium to use iTunes, we all might as well buy off Amazon and get it shipped to the door cheaper then iTunes?

  • When I Crop a video it doesn't fill the frame back up, it just outlines it in black and stays the same size

    When I Crop a video it doesn't fill the frame back up, it just outlines it in black and stays the same size

    No, I am using the crop function, and the directions say after I press done it will fill the frame, which worked a year ago. Now when using th Crop function, the black area stays black and the cropped video stays the same size. I even shared it to a Master file to see if it would process during sharing, but the black area remained black and the cropped video remained the same size. Still a bit frustrated.

  • Color and style settings won't stay the same.....

    I'm trying to get my type to stay the same color and style each time I start a new email to send to someone. I can set it each time I start a new message, but I want it to stay the same automatically when I open it up. Is that possible to do in mail?

    Hi,
    I have had this problem.
    It seems that iChat is more sensitive to small breaks in the network link. Web Browsers and Mail just don't show them as they make new connections each time they download mail or change pages.
    If wireless try it wired for elimination purposes.

  • The update of web page iCloud is great, but why don't u just remove the "Notes" label from the "Mail" app?

    The update of web page iCloud is great, but why don't u just remove the "Notes" label from the "Mail" app?
    In additional, I also would like to see a "iOS liked" way to edit my "United contact" on the web page iCloud, just like on my iphone. That would be really great and more greater!
    Anyway, thanks for your work!

    It's difficult to tell exactly what you mean, or where you are looking.
    But if you're looking in the App Store on the iPad, in the Updates area, and you still see the icons, they presumably now say "Open" to the right instead of "Update".  They will stay that way as a history of what you have done.  They will disappear after a while - something like 30 days.  That is fine.

  • My husband and I share one computer.  We want to be able to share the same music on our iPhones, but we don't want to share the same contacts and applications.  How can I set this up so we still share music, but everything else is separate on our iPhones?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    iTunes and iCloud are different accounts. You can both use the same ID for the store login and share your music etc., and use different ID's to log in to iCloud, thereby keeping your calendars etc separate.

    First, you posted in the Mac App Store forum which are apps for the Mac OS X, not iOS devices.
    You do not need to re purchase your apps. Connect your iOS devices to your computer, launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Apps then click Sync
