Why is my iPhone 4s still syncing when I turned off WiFi and iTunes?

I just downloaded iOS 7 on my iPhone 4s and even with iTunes turned off and WiFi off on my phone, it's still showing the 'sync' rotating circle/arrow and draining by battery pretty quick. How do I turn it off?

The phone is 'syncing' to something it woudl seem. I'm losing 1% of my battery every minute, my WiFi is turned off (as is Blutooth), and I have the rotating arrow "sync" symbol going on. I've turned off iTunes on my MacAir, and I've shut down every app on my iPhone (the two tap of the home button, swipe up to quit).

My iPhone 5 keeps freezing when I connect to wifi, not just freeze the wifi, but freezes the whole phone and have to hold home and lock button. Locks up completely and instantly when I turn on wifi and connect. Solutions?

1. If you are really on iOS 7.1, you may wish to try upgrading to 8.1.2 which is the latest (basing this on your signature).
2. If updating the phone doesn't help, is this only when you connect to a specific wifi network? Or all wifi networks (including public with no password)? If it is ALL wifi networks, you may have a hardware problem. Genius bar would be the next step.

Charge your iPhone whenever you want to. There are no limitations on when or the duration of charge. Normally it will charge in 3-4 hours with the wall charger, longer if you use a computer USB port.

Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

IPhone won't sync when any account is logged in iTunes

As the title states, after I restored my iPhone 3G 8gb because it wouldn't sync with my computer I finally narrowed down the problem after many hours of troubleshooting to an account being logged into iTunes when the iPhone is trying to sync.
My Desktop is running Windows Vista x64, the iPhone doesn't have any problems connecting to my Macbook Pro regardless if an account is logged into iTunes or not.
Is there anyway to fix this?
edit: Seems like Kaspersky also prevents my iTunes from detecting my iPhone

We have 2 iPhones and two computers, one Mac and a PC. We recently downloaded iTunes v9 and now iTunes cannot “see” either of our phones on either computer. I have contacted Apple by phone and spent over an hour trying to resolve this connection problem. The Apple rep suggested that the issue might be in the “dock” and recommended I take the phones to iPnone supplier. Incidentally I can charge the phones using the “dock” which suggests that the “dock” is not the issue.
The iPhone supplier connected one one phone to his Mac computer and it immediately connected to and “saw” the phone. Interestingly, the supplier was only running iTunes v8. The supplier suggested there was a “patch” for iPhone to operate with itunes v9. Is this correct and if so how do I get it.
So my problem is that I cannot ever get to the stage of "syncing".
I have also noted on several “chat” sites people have had problems with iPhone and iTunes v9 connectivity.
Help!!!! please!!!

Why does caps lock light remains on when I turn off my macbook pro?

I had a problem recently come up with my MacBook Pro Early 2011 15 inch 2.0 ghz computer. The the caps lock light initiates at boot up. When I depress caps lock the light goes off but then only allows capital letters. All sybols associtated with depressing the cap button such as the "at" sign are screwed up. When I turn my computer off with safe mag attached, the caps light remains on. When I remove the safe mag, the caps light goes off. Any clues as to what is going on?
Thank you for your inputs ahead of time.

After recent update to airport on iMac, the wifi connection is lost when it goes to sleep and requires turning off wifi and turning it on to reestablish contact.

After recent update to OS on iMac, communication to airport is lost when computer goes to sleep. To reestablish connection, I need to turn wifi off then on.

same problem here.
i have a time capsule.
symptoms:
excessively searching for network
but more often than not, it cant find the correct netowrk that is correctly stored in keychain
if i try network assistant opened through safari not finding its page, then it can find the right network after i enter in the password again. it connects. but only for a few seconds then it loses the connection again.
the only fool proof workaround for me is:
1/ shut down time capsule. restart time capsule.
2/ restart mac with airport turned off.
3/ after restart manually select the network from the wireless icon in the menu bar
airport utility is a complete waste of time
old airport utility is still better.

Why in the world did update 1.4 start turning off WiFi in sleep mode again?

This time, we werent even given a choice. It just turns off by design. Thats not cool! I really solely on WiFi at home because my EV connection at home is close to nothing. You guys can ask Sprint to put a tower in New City, NY.

I agree that some time ago you stayed connected.
I have the same problem now: twitter messages don't come in anymore when phone is in sleep mode.
Before they always came in directly when sent.
Apple should give us more options so we choose for ourselfves what we want.
It must be very hard to create an option: wifi off when in sleep mode yes/no ?
Also making a real copy of a picture that you have taken would be nice.
So when you delete the original, the copy keeps existing !

When display turns off system improperly ejects Western Digital external hard drive. Yosemite 10.10.2

Why does computer improperly eject my Western Digital (My Book for Mac) external hard drive when display turns off. And how do I stop this from happening.
Yosemite 10.10.2
27 inch iMac

Your External Western Digital usually has Utilities from the company that can be downloaded from their site@http://support.wdc.com/product/download.asp?groupid=133&sid=157&lang=en
run their scan for errors and post back. Also do you have Time Machine always running at time of incident?

iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?

Why is my iphone 4s still using ios 6.1.3

Why is my iphone 4s still using ios 6.1.3 when ios 6.1.4 was released im may. I reside in dubai

iOS 6.1.4 is for the iPhone 5 only. It fixed a hardware specific issue. Your phone is properly up to date.

Why does the iphone 5 not sync the correct artwork to songs.

Why does the iphone 5 not sync the correct artwork to songs. All the artwork is correct in the itunes 11 library, but when sync'd the iphone arbittary chooses what it wants

My guess is you are using iTunes Match.
iTunes Match is a great feature, but I suggest keeping it on only on your computer. Turn iTunes Match off on your iPhone at Settings > Music > iTunes Match. Then sync your iPhone and you should get all the artwork. You may have to sync two or three times to get it all after turning off iTunes Match.

Why is my Apple ID still disabled when supposedly it was fixed by Apple ID support over the phone this am over 12 hours ago and they said it ( my Apple ID and password) would be disabled no longer then 8 hours and I still am unable to buy anything in the I tunes store or pay for any apps or games.

We are fellow users here on these forums. Have you tried logging out of your account on your iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then logged in and seeing if it then works ?
