Why my apps can't be disable on USE CELLULAR DATA FOR under Cellular settings
I came across an issue that my apps tend to stay on ( enable ) even when I disabled it manually, it will turn back on soon after, this can cause certain people data overage and extra data cost they did not expect. I always check my settings daily because I play with my phone numerous times a day so I noticed any changes or differences. So after I had done probably most people have tried, reset/restart the phone, check any latest OS updates, double check any settings, reset network settings, turn off and on data, turn on and off airplane mode, the conclusion is nothing. So I thought maybe i should try one app that I know kept turning back on when I disabled it, did the updates on the appstore, went back to the settings and I was able to turn on and off, tried the second app just to make sure my assumption works, updated the newest version on appstore, it works. So I decided to update all of the apps, then the problem is FIXED ! I hope this solve people's issue. Now I am able to manually disable and enable any app under USE CELLULAR DATA FOR,It was lucky guess for me and it work.
Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Appel logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting.
If this does not work, did you try to switch off Cellular Data, restart the phone and switch it back on again?

I can't enable or disable cellular data for certain iOS apps and features from setting.
When I off data for specific application and go to other option it automatic on all application
Any one can helpSOLUTION! (NO NEED TO RESET YOUR IPHONE SETTING!)
I have the same issue for the last two weeks. But i have already managed to solve the issue all by myself. When i go to Settings > Cellular > below the tab "use cellular data for:", i turned off some apps which i didnt want to use with cellular data. As soon as i go back to Settings, and then i went back to Cellular, the apps which i had switched off earlier, automatically turned back on.
Here's the solution:
Either you're using wifi or cellular data, first of all you're gonna hafto turn on the cellular data use for App Store. Once you have turned it on, go to App Store application. Update ALL the apps which have new updates available. If it asks you to log in your App Store, just do so. If there's something wrong with your debit or credit card information, it will ask you to update to a different card. Just do what it asks. Put in a new credit or debit card info and fill in the forms provided. The card you're using must be usable and has usable balance in it. Let's say atleast $10 to $20. As soon as it confirms your card successfully, the app updates will start automatically. Continue to update all the apps. After all updates are finished, go back to Settings > Cellular. Try to switch on or off some apps for data use and recheck.
Try it yourself! Have a nice day and don't put a blame on Apple for this.

I can't operate face time using celluler data?Does anyone know why?
I can't operate face time using celluler data?Does anyone know why?
Because you can't. It's written into the basic programming of the app that it only works on wifi (likely data rates ro the such, but that's just guessing)

Hello Sophie59
You should be able to see two different tabs when setting up the email if you go to Other > Add Mail Account. Once you enter in the email address and password, you should be at the next screen to provide more details about the email as far as incoming and outgoing servers and at the top there will be a blue section to add it in as a POP or IMAP email account. Check out the article below for further troubleshooting and emails setup options.

I bought iPhone 3GS(Used) recently and updated ios 6.1.3 my iPhone is taking blurry Pictures through basic default Cam app.Can anybody please let me know any solution for this?
Basic troubleshooting steps right out of the user guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. If you've been through ALL the steps and you still have the problem, then you'll need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation.

I have just downlaoded the color burst app, can someone explain how to use it?
I have just downlaoded the color burst app, can someone explain how to use it??
There is no help in the app and i can't log onto the smart solutions..it is really frustrating me because it is propably a really simple app...can someone please help???I posted in this thread an example that illustrates how to use the 3d graph to do surfaces ac lines.
The type of data that you present to the 3d graph depends on which mthod you are using. In general you want to present a set of points that need plotted. These points are defined by taking one value for each of the XYZ and sometimes W arrays.
Explanation:
You want to plot a surface that is defined by four point (X0,Y0,Z0,W0), (X1,Y1,Z1,W1), etc. You can present the values using (4) 2-d arrays each of which have four values at index (o,o), (0,1), (1,0) and (1,1).
Thie first point plotted would be the point that is defined by taking (0,0) from each of the arrays.
So as you can see from the above all of your arrays should be of the same size and dimensions for this to work.
Look at the Example i posted in the other thread and try some small experiments with small data sets before you jump to anything complicated.
I hope that helps,

I have managed to resolve it. What I found is I typed in a wrong password when one app loaded. That app gave a misleading network connectivity error. Other apps are connecting fine now.

"Use cellular data for" is only showing a few apps
Hello,
I just got a new 5S. I have installed and used maybe 15 or so apps, but when I go to
Settings -> Cellular -> "Use cellular data for"
it only shows 5 apps: Calendar, FaceTime, Find iPhone, Passbook, & Skype.
I would like to see all the apps so that I can control what is using cellular data. When I read other posts online, it seems like this should show all apps. Does anybody have any idea why I only see a few apps here or what I can do to display all apps?
Thanks for any help!This troubleshooting guide helped me. Had to try up to step 7...
iPhone: Troubleshooting a cellular data connection -
I cannot find all my installed apps on the "use cellular data for" tab on the settings menu.
I have a new iphone 5s and on the first day I've received it, I updated to IOS 8.0.2.
Today, I've decided to turn my cellular data on and, in order to consume less data, I thought I would disable some of the apps. However, only a few were available/visible on the "use cellular data for" tab. However, when, with the cellular data turned on, I opened a missing app on the phone, it would start to appear on the list (where it wasn't previously). Also, when I go to the app on the settings menu, it would not have shown the option, "use cellular data" before I've opened the app and now it does. Do I need to turn on every single app before I can select my cellular data preferences? I know people with the same phone and their apps appear all, as expected.
I don't know if this is a problem of my own carrier but I don't think so, because the people I mentioned earlier have the same carrier.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Appel logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting.

"use cellular data for" apps keep turning back on
ie. go in, slide bar from green to off for facetime, youtube, etc...go out of Cellular, back in, and those apps show green for "use cellular data for".
At first I thought it was an issue with some versions of Angry Birds, as they don't all do this. Then realized facetime, youtube, facebook, etc.. all do this.
Works fine on two other iphones. Running latest ios on 4S
The fact it doesn't do it for all apps is what I find is strange. Thought at first it was an issue with Rovio apps, but then realized even facetime does this.
ThanksI'd like to know why there is not solution to this. I think I'll just remove all those apps that are turning their 'use cellular' data back on. I only cared because when my kid plays angry birds, my cellular data was being used for videos. Oh well, I guess I'll have to remove apps or get a new data plan.

HT1688 iPhone 5S, Settings Cellular Use Cellular Data For Apps - Not Updating
I have iPhone 5S iOS 7.0.4 with AT&T Contractual Plan.
When I change any settings in Settings > Cellular > Use Cellular Data For to disable or enable apps to use cellular data. And, if I exit and enter again it shows the old settings.
Also Call Time > Current Period is not updating.
This is happening for last one week. I have also noticed heavy cellular data usage for last one week.
I have reset the phone as a new phone this it is solved, but if I restore from my backup, then the problem is returning again. Even I have deleted some apps, but it doesnot help.
Please help me to solve this.Call AT&T - it seems they are forcing their own settings on you.

Hi I newly started using Iphone 6, I am not getting all the applications list under Use Cellular date for to restrict my unwanted apps on cellular data
Please help me outHi Rajesh778484,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that some of your applications are not appearing under Settings > Cellular on your iPhone so that you can restrict or allow use of cellular data. If you have some installed applications on your iPhone that are not showing here, the first troubleshooting step I would suggest would be to reset your iPhone. Please refer to the attached article for information on how to perform a reset.
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Best regards,

Use Mobile Data For: Settings - Why does Settings need a cellular data connection?
iPhone 5 iOS 8.1
Settings > Mobile > Use Mobile Data For: Settings
Just curious, why does the iPhone need this turned on? Why does the settings app need a cellular mobile data connection?
If you turn it off, you're pestered to turn it on every time you go into settings?Because, that's the way Siri works...it needs an Internet connection...requests are sent to Apple's servers. No Internet, no Siri.
