  • Why will the front camera on my iphone 4 not work? On both the camera and snapchat.

    Why will the front camera on my iphone 4 not work? On both my camera and snapchat

    Hi there bananas321,
    You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

    my  friend ipad 2 was stolen if they reset the device in factory setting,just wanna ask if we can still locate the device using find my iphone...mobileme?pls help me,...

    It's unfortunate that your device has been stolen.  You can report this to the police, but as has been answered before, if the device is restored you CANNOT locate it. 
    It probably is technically possible to track your device by the SIM; law enforcement will not waste their time doing so.  Besides, the thieves have probably changed it anyway.
    While unfortunate your iPad is gone, you really need to move on.

  • Why is the wifi reception on my iPhone 5 so poor. I'm not talking about in my own home with my own router. I'm talking about AT

    Why is the wifi reception on my iPhone 5 so poor. I'm not talking about in my own home with my own router. I'm talking about AT&amp;T hotspots, public hotspots, etc. I can hold my 3GS and my 5 side by side, the 3GS picks up more signals with more strength. The 5 seems to have a weaker wireless network than its predecessors. It's very frustrating because I can be 20 feet from a wireless router, and still only show 2 bars, if I don't end up losing the connection. What gives??

    I've done the resets...no real help at all.  Im Also on my 2nd iPhone 5. The first was replaced because of a faulty external speaker module. Both phones wifi reception pretty much suck. ESPECIALLY if the case is on. I'll luck out a little bit by taking the case off...but not much.

  • Why is the speakerphone so low in iPhone 3GS?

    Why is the speakerphone so low in iPhone 3GS? I have a maximum volume still it is not clear, Is there a way to increase it by any other method?

    I have the same issue. Low volume while using speakerphone function. At 1' (30cm) it measures at almost half the dB of a blackberry pearl speakerphone. Basically renders the speakerphone function unusable in anything but the quietest environments, and even then its questionable. There are several people in the office I work at that have a 3G and 3GS phones. 3G phones tend to be a bit better but still quiet compared to Motorola, Nokia, and Blackberries. The other 3GS phones were just as bad as mine. This is definitely not a user error.

    cant see the device on find my iphone.
    please help.

    Welcome to the Apple Community Billy
    You can only locate, lock or erase your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.

  • The map on find my iphone appears in several disjointed segments rather than a whole

    On my Acer laptop the map on Find my Iphone appears as several disjointed segments rater than a whole map
    What's causing this

    I believe this app gets the names from their account. If they do not have their name in their account, then it will not show up for you.

  • Why can't I use find my iphone?

    Hello,
    so, I have an iPhone 4S with ios 7. Very nice. I also have find my Iphone installed, and iCloud enabled. All well. So I lost my iPhone 4S, thought to track it down with find my iPhone as I could still call my iPhone. My girl friend uses my old iPhone 3GS, so I thought just get "find my iPhone" on here phone, and track my 4S. Well, nice try, but doesn't work. It requires iOs 7!!! So I couldnt track my iPhone. Than I tried to use a friends iPhone 4, but he didnt have iOs 7 installed as well. I tried using icloud.com on Safari, it tells me to install the app............
    Why can't I install an app, which used to work on a 3GS anymore? I would guess that most people keep their old iPhones, and use it when the new iPhone was lost or stolen. Big surprise that it doesnt work.
    Thanks for that.
    Regards,
    Florian

    I do understand the backwards compatibility argument only partly. If I had an iPhone 3GS with Find my Iphone installed ages ago, I would be able to track my iPhone even with an old iPhone. I do understand that new Versions of an App can not support als iOS, but they could keep old Versions for old iOS devices. It is bad enough that the 3GS is not supported anymore with iOS, now all the apps start to not work anymore.
    There are other apps with offer that, a warning messages comes up that the latest for the iOS supported Version will be installed, but it is not the latest overall Version. I am happy with that, but apple doesnt seem to do it for their own, very usefull apps, which a very unusefull for me now.

  • Why do I keep getting "Find My iPhone" notices that I did not send?

    For some reason, my various iDevices keep getting the occasional "Find My iPhone" notice.  It comes in the form of a sound and a generic pop-up message.  I am not sending any though. Any idea why?

    Somebody knows your password, change it.

  • Is there a way to get the history from find my iphone?

    My iPhone disappeared from my car while it was valet parked at the airport. I did a find my phone when I realized I had left it in the car, and it showed the location to be valet parking lot. I assumed all was well, did a remote lock operation, and enjoyed the vacation. Is there any way to get the log from find my phone to show that it was where it was when I did the find operation?

    No.

  • HT4623 just updated my iOS and now it won't let me past the screen on find my IPhone

    I can't get past the FIND MY IPHONE Screen after IOS update...it's like the continue button and or arrow aren't highlighted and don't allow me to select them so I can't move on.

    I do go thru safari and I get thru the log in into my account but when it comes to showing your statement it blocks it. I had no problems until I download the latest version.
