Why is the iPhone's email SO slow?

I am really getting sick and tired of seeing "Loading....loading....loading". It's been 20 minutes now that I'm waiting for a 3.5MB picture to load, while 2 of my friends on the email chain of have BlackBerry's have long replied. Maybe it's time to check out the Curve.

My iPhone worked perfectly but yesterday it wouldn't sync with my Mac: it didn't add new entries in my Address Book (I have 1300 and cannot do this by hand!). Eventually I started afresh ... I managed the sync after resetting sync history (all entries on Mac now on iPhone, but new ones on iPhone are now gone). I can get the missing data back though.
Furthermore, I set everything re Mail and Safari like it was (I wrote it down the first time I did this and couldn't get it going) but no go: "Could not activate EDGE: You are not subscribed to EDGE". I do not use EDGE - I did set Network to Data Roaming (like the first time) but doesn't work.
Any suggestions?

Why is the iphone 4/4s so slow now with the new update i.o.s7, why is the iphone 4/4s so slow now with the new update i.o.s7

Good day, I am writing to Apple because of the iPhone 4 i have for two years now and never had a problem with service or anything until the new update I.o.S7. It has created problems with my phone by being very very slow. I don't like how I am waitnig to go onto the internet or anything because this is taking up my usuages and makes me pay more to bell since this update had made my phone slow. This update is more for the iPhone 5/5C/5S and now any other latest phone. Please email back stating if anything can be done.
thank you

HT4528 Why is the WiFi and browser so slow on iPhone 5?

Why is the WiFi and browser so slow on iPhone 5? I've noticed they are not as quick as other smart phones and have seen this brought up in forums. Also, the WiFi was slow with my iPhone 4 anyone know what the deal is?
Thanks in advance

Sadly that spiffy reply was of no use. Browser is so slow and in looking at 3 different iPhones I have noticed there is a serious wait for any simple page to come up like MSN maybe its the iOS maybe Safari maybe should reset daily. Truly not impressed Apple can you here us now? Probably not... to busy restarting or resetting.
Truly hope it improves in a hurry.

First try Resetting it: hold down the home and sleep buttons, ignore the red Off slider, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons.
If that does not work Restore your iPhone in iTunes.

Why is the same wirelles connection too slow for an iphone4 when it is quite fast to an iphone5?

You really have a question for iPhone support here, so I suggest that you post in the appropriate support area:
Using iPhone
The experts over there will likely suggest that you use the Apple Troubleshooting Guide for iOS devices, so you might want to work your way through that before you post in the iPhone support area.

Why does the iphone 5 always display the wrong time

why does the iphone 5 always display the wrong time

I had similar problem. My iPhone was always about 3 minutes faster than the correct time here in the UK which I found to be very irritating. It just came to a head because here in the UK we have just changed from British Summer Time back to standard GMT. This actually worked automatically except that the iPhone time still showed it to be about 3 minutes faster than GMT. However I have now cured the problem (almost) by going to
Settings/General/ Date & Time/ and then selected the "Set Automatically" button.
The clock then immediately jumped back 3 minutes and now the iPhone time is only about 10 seconds slow which is good enough for me.

Why does the iPhone convert animated .GIF images?

I saved a bunch of animated .GIF files on my iPhone.
When I imported them onto my computer, they were all single framed .JPG files.
Why does the iPhone convert the images, and is there any way to prevent this?
Thanks!

you can play gif in webView ,just the same way you load a jpeg or png..
NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"santa" ofType:@"gif"];
NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path isDirectory:NO];
/* Load the request. */
[myWebView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url]];
the gif that is locally saved will be loaded.

Why is my iPhone 5 wifi so slow?

I have an iPhone 5 through AT&T, and so does my dad and brother. My mom has an iPhone 4. I've recently noticed that ALL of the iPhone 5s get atrociously slow download speeds (<1Mbps download, >10Mbps upload, ~200ms ping). We pay for 50Mbps download and 25Mbps upload from Verizon Fios. My mom's iPhone 4, my dad's iPad, and all of our laptops have no internet troubles whatsoever.
I've read in a few places to try disabling the WPA2 encryption on my router, and I did so to no avail. I've used multiple routers, including an AirPort Extreme on both 5GHz and 2.4GHz, and all the routers gave similar download and upload rates. It's not even just our wifi, it's ALL wifi: work, schools, restaurants, it doesn't matter. The wifi has horrible download rates and ping.
I've been dealing with this problem for a few weeks now, and no one has seemed to figure out the problem. Might I be able to get a replacement iPhone from the Apple store and see if that fixes the problem? I'm pushing my data limit since I've been forced to use LTE over wifi. Thanks in advance!

Just did a speed test with my iPhone 5 connected to my "n" wireless network encrypted with WPA2 and had the following results.
Ping - 31ms
Download - 20.82 Mbps
Upload - .97 Mbps
I suggest making an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby for a hardware diagnostic to be run.

Why is the download/upload speed so slow on my MBA (about 5 times slower than my PC)?

Why is the download/upload speed so slow on my MBA (about 5 times slower than my PC)?

Are you on band 13 or band 4? 13 is the original LTE band and remains relatively congested. Band 4 is the XLTE band and is less congested and has higher overall potential bandwidth (15 MHz vs 10 MHz). Even so, 7 Mbps is more than enough for doing stuff on your phone and is not considered slow.
To check band,
dial *3001#12345#*
select serving cell info
frequency band will say 13 or 4
FInd an area with band 4 and retest.

Why is the iPhone cheaper from Apple store than elsewhere?

Hi there, possible silly question for you here!
Why is the iPhone 5C £319 from apple and £399 from the likes of Carphone Warehouse or Virgin Mobile??
What am I missing?
Having been with Virgin for a very long time and using basic phones I need something that's going to let me do what I need on the go without lagging and crashing so I'm going for an iPhone...possibly the 5C.
Do you think Virgin would supply me with a sim to go in the iPhone if I bought it from Apple??
Hope you can help!?!?!

If Apple has decided to sell the 5C at £319 ( as shown on UK store) it will be NOT carrier locked and will work with any of the UK Apple Approved carriers ,including Virgin
(forget CPW their units will lock to the first carrier sim used )
I imagine if you have a contract Virgin will provide the correct sim provisioned for your number ,but ask them first

Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS?

Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS? this in the works?

"Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS?"
Apple chose not to offer this as a feature of iphone. E-mail can accomplish the same thing.
"is in the works?"
This has been asked and answered countless times. The forum search bar is on the right side of this page.
Apple has announced that MMS will be included in the 3.0 software due out this summer. Before you ask, all that has been announced is in this link:

Why is the iphone search function spotlight limited in time?

why is the iphone search function spotlight limited in time? I can only find entries that are less than a year old,but I would like to search older entries in my calender, which goes back to 2002. Anyone has a solution for this?

Are you sure that your calendar still contains entries from that long ago? Generally when you sync the iPhone through iTunes, it will only sync entries from a specific time frame. It may be there older entries have been archived and do not exist on the iPhone anymore. Other than that, I don't see any setting that allows modification to the time frame for Spotlight search.

Why is the iPhone 5 using so much data I have read a lot of complaints and I have went over on my plan and never have?

Why is the iPhone 5 using so much data I have read a lot of complaints and I have went over on my plan and never have?
I have even turned off LTE. Cut off my cellular data off of apps. Still uses data I switched back to my iPhone 4 cause I had used my
Data in 2 weeks!

I have the same problem on my 4S 64G: I updated to 7.1.1 and burned through my cellular data allowance without running anything that ought to be using it. I incurred an overage charge on Thursday, my new billing cycle started on Friday, and I immediately had used 3/4 of my allowance for the new cycle. I typically do not use my allowance in an entire month so burning through it in a day or two twice in one week is very much not right.
Possibly unrelated or not: last night I was out, did NOT use any apps that should use cellular data, and came home and my phone refused to connect to my home wifi despite turning this and that on and off. I burned cellular allowance while wifi was available.
It seems like someting on my phone, whether an app or the iOS itself, is using cellular data even while my phone is not in use. All I could do is turn off Cellular Data in Settings but that very much diminishes the usefulness of a phone that has served me well -- without data overages! -- for several years.
Please fix this, Apple!

Why is the iphone 4s 199$ but in the UK £499?

Why is the iPhone 4s 199$ but in the UK £499? They say nothing about contracts involved and in the news paper "I" it states that the iPhone 4s can be sold for as little as £99. How do you justify this? this was stated in the news paper dated weds 6th Oct on page 9.

The $199 iPhone in the US is subsidized by the cell carrier, is locked to that carrier, and requires a two-year contract. The £499 price is without any carrier subsidy or carrier lock, allowing you to use the iPhone with any carrier, including with a pay-as-you-go plan. Some UK carriers offer similar discounts when you purchase the iPhone from the carrier with an appropriate contract.
Regards.
