Why dosent Touch ID work after iOS 8.1.1

I Have a iPhone 5S and ever sense I downloaded 8.1.1 my Touch ID dosnt work at all how can I fix this and, does it have to do with the update of 8.1.1 ?

Hi Abbymartinez,
If you are having issues with your iPhone's touch ID not functioning as expected, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Force an app to close in iOS
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

Why dosent my wifi work after the update from 5.1.1 to 6!!??

Hey me and my brother updatet our iphones yesterday from 5.1.1 to iOs6 and now the wifi suddently dosent work!!? why?!

See:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

Imessaging doesnt work after iOs 6 update, can't send or recieve messages. it isnt the wifi since everything else is working. have tried every solution possible. help?!

imessaging on ipod touch doesnt work after iOs 6 update, can't send or recieve messages. it isnt the wifi since everything else is working. have tried every solution possible. help?!

Short of a reset to factory settings I've found making sure iMessaging is not left minimised helps. It doesn't seem to keep its connection. So, by closing after each use this helps. I've been doing this since I logged out of iMessaging at least 1/2 doz times and even changed my apple id pw as this had ceased to be recognised. I get fewer send failures now and don't have an inactive send button so much. Having said this its all a bit of a work around as iMessaging isn't behaving as it once did. If over time not resolved will do factory reset. All the best.

Why????

After IOS update, you first have to use passcode.
Passcode is needed when
After restarting your iPhone 5s

TS2621 why my outgoing mail server not working after ios 6 upgraded

why my outgoing mail server not working after ios 6 upgraded

Ask your carrier to send you the settings over wifi and then install them that way.
I'm on giffgaff and I used the giffgaff app from the store to sort this out.
Overall though I must say Apple has let itself down on this as why isn't something written in the ios script that keeps the original settings??
Very Poor indeed and I held off using Apple products for years for this very reason!!

HT6154 rear camera on iphone 5 not working after ios 8 update why?

My iPhone 5 rear camera is no longer working after ios 8 update its just black I can see the flash choice the hdr and the timer but other than that it is a black screen

Hi there fjci2003,
You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
You see a closed lens or black screen
If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping the camera swap icon . If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.

Wake up doesn't work After IOS 7 with my Philips clock radio AJ3270D

Wake up doesn't work After IOS 7 with my Philips clock radio AJ3270D!
The other function is OK(listen music like an Ipod or charge)
Can you help me?

Apple did update their help section on the app. I found this trying to figure out why my Find Friends wasn't working after the update to iOS 7.
"Find My Friends is turned on in Background App Refresh (in Settings > General in iOS 7). When Background App Refresh is turned off, Find My Friends can’t use Location Services in the background. If Background App Refresh is turned on, but you quit Find My Friends via the multitasking interface, location updates won’t be sent to your friends until you open the app again."
Hopefully Apple will update this as it was not this way prior to iOS 7. Killing the app didn't prevent your location from updating in iOS 6 as I constantly killed the apps running in the background and never had this problem till the update. Hope this helps! Just make sure to not kill the app as of now and to tell everyone you follow not to kill their app and locations will continue to refresh. Otherwise it won't update locations till the app is opened again.

HT4783 why can't airdrop work between iOS (iphone) and OSX (Mac Computers)?

why can't airdrop work between iOS (iphone) and OSX (Mac Computers)?

NNot sure if anyone help you resolve this or if it works with Mavericks but with Yosemite I couldn't send From iPhone 5 or iPad mini 2 because my Macbook Pro wasn't able to be seen via AirDrop. After a grueling 4 hours with support and factory resets of both devices I was transferred to the CPU Support team, which resolved my issue in about 3 mins. Needless to say I wasn't happy but figured I should help anyone else in the same boat as me. I have both devices operating on iOS 8 and MacBook pro rubbing Yosemite.
1. Open Finder Window -> Airdrop -> Change setting for "Allow me to be discovered by:" to no one and close the finder window.
2. Go To Apple Logo -> Force Quit -> Select Finder from App List -> Force Quit.
3. Open Finder Window -> Airdrop -> Change setting for "Allow me to be discovered by:" to everyone and try to send file from iPad / iPhone to computer.
This process allowed the computer to be seen / recornized on the iOS deVice. Hope this helps.

If you're expecting Apple to respond on this forum, you will have a long wait. This is a user-to-user technical support forum that is only hosted by Apple. This was made clear when you signed up. In any case, try the steps in this article to troubleshoot hardware issues (there is a camera section):

IMessage not working after iOS 5.1 upgrade! Feedback pls

iMessage not working after iOS 5.1 upgrade, anybody experiencing this as well? Feedback please......

You shouldn't have to hard restart and it shouldn't have anything to do with your router. If anyone else runs into this problem try resetting the network settings on your phone. All the steps to do this can be found here http://tekshot5.com/ios-5-1-imessage-fix/
Edit: Some of us don't have the option of resetting our DNS servers. I run my own for example for caching purposes.

Rear camera stopped working after iOS 7.1.2 update- iPhone 5

My rear camera is not working after I did 7.1.2 software update this morning. I see a blank screen when I click the camera app.

So my camera was fine until yesterday and pressing on the lens did not work so I went back to looking for solutions:
http://www.cydiaios7.com/back-camera-not-working-after-ios-7-update-solution.htm l
The article is from last year (IOS 7), but solution 1 worked for me. Here are all the solutions from the link:
Solution 1
Hold the Sleep button until you see the Slide to Power Off slider
Slide it and then immediately hold down the Sleep button again until you see the Apple logo
Solution 2
Open your Settings app
Tap General
Tap Reset
Tap Reset All Settings
While you won’t lose any of your data you will have to re-enter all of your passwords and personal settings again
Solution 3
Hold the Sleep and Home button simultaneously until the Apple logo appears
Let go of both buttons at the same time and let your iOS device boot up as normal
Solution 4
Try a different camera app instead of the stock one – downloadCamera Awesome, free of charge, from the App store
Install and both cameras should work properly.
