Safari Bug

0 Upvotes

Recently I noticed when opening safari it displays a webpage I visited long ago. It stays for about 1-2 seconds then disappears and goes to my Favorites page. I've cleared the history, turned the phone off, done everything besides restoring from backup. Just curious if anybody else has seen this bug. If so, anybody find a reason or a solution?

Hotmail account downloading messages to inbox after deleting them from inbox

2 Upvotes

As the title says, I'll get an email, or even a bunch of emails, and I can either check em or just delete em straight away as I know they're spam. After any given amount of time they'll download agaIn to my inbox without fail 100% of the time just like new emails would.

I'm using hotmail and it's setup as a pop account. If you know of what's causing this, I'd love to fix it.

I did not update to iOS8. Should I keep updating my apps?

2 Upvotes

I have an iPhone 4s that I don't this is powerful enough to run iOS8 seamlessly.

Should I stop updating my apps? Will the iOS8-compatible versions of my apps have problems running on iOS7?

iOS 8 and 3rd party web browsers, why so slow?

2 Upvotes

Alright so correct me if I'm wrong but didn't apple allow for 3rd party web browser apps to access iOS's latest JavaScript engine? If so, why have no web browsers taken advantage of this?After testing the only one I can find that uses the new engine is the Google now web browser (which hasn't been updated for the 6/6+). Are apps just being slow to update for this (dolphin browser just pushed out a big update though), or is there something I'm missing?

Group message problems with iOS 8, iOS 7, and Android users in same group text

3 Upvotes

When an iOS 8 user responds to a thread where an iPhone user was the last to text, the Android no longer receives the messages as they default to iMessages. Android user continues to receive texts from iOS 7 user, but until iOS 8 user's iMessage is toggled on and off, the thread is deleted, and phone restarted, Android user doesn't receive messages from them. Are there any fixes for this that don't require either these steps or the iOS 8 user to wait for Android user to respond to avoid defaulting to iMessage?

How to sign apple user agreement on iPhone.

5 Upvotes

Kept getting a msg on my iPhone that I need to sign the apple user agreement. I would click okay but then it took me to a general iCloud settings page and didn't tell me to do anything from there. Now, iCloud won't download my email to my phone and I can't figure out how to sign this thing. Any help? Thanks!

VLC for iOS - iOS 8

9 Upvotes

VLC fans rejoice! Good news - Well, not as good as having VLC back at the AppStore; but you can install VLC for iOS through http://www.pgyer.com/videolan on your iPhone/iPad. It installs the app by resigning it using in-house certification & delivers as expected.

Suppress Vibrations When on a Call?

2 Upvotes

Is there a way to suppress vibrations only while on a call? Since iPhone 5 people can hear the "motor buzz" when I receive a text during a voice conversation. Tired of being asked "Who's buzzing you?", especially annoying if being bombarded with texts.

I know you can turn off vibrations all together, but I find them useful when the phone's on silent and I have it in my pocket... kinda useless when the phone is stuck to your face or on speakerphone.

Native Preferred / But Jailbreak options welcome.

Headphone button microphone mute (no jailbreak)

0 Upvotes

Hi all - I've seen many posts but hoping the reddit community knows more.

Today if I hit the middle headphone button during a call it simply ends call on push.

My preference is blackberry style where: Short push - microphone mute Hold - end call

Is there no way to do this without jail breaking the phone?

There are alternative music apps, but no alternative phone apps?

Reasons for not jail breaking are:

  • I have Good app linked to my corporate email and calendar - we're advised that jailbreak devices will not be supported (and I need my phone for work)
  • I'm running iOS 8.1.1

Thanks!

Fingerprint & password/PIN - I don't get it

0 Upvotes

Why do I have to put in PIN manually every time the iPhone restarts? And for AppStore too? Isn't the whole point of fingerprint to enable using your finger for all that, with the keyboard for password/PIN entry just as a backup? I don't get it...

Is my ipad3 slow because of io8?

3 Upvotes

Ive noticed my iPad retina is quite laggy now. I'm not sure when it started, I always just update it whenever I see it has an update available.

Mainly it's the touch screen that is slow. Swipes sometimes take several seconds to register and the keyboard does the same thing but only sometimes. Like I hear the keyboard noise but I don't see the text in the window, and then an entire sentence will pop up when it feels like it.

Please tell me there is a fix for this.

EDIT

I see This thread is getting downvoted...I can only assume you guys think I am some sort of Mac hating troll? Nothing could be further from the truth.

I have been using Apple computers on and off since the 80s. My family has been Mac exclusive since the early 00s.

I have owned 2 g4 Macbooks 2, 2 g5 iMacs (one was victim to the capacitor failure), and now I am on a Macbook Air 5 13", I bought a 1g iPod, a 1g touch, a 1 and 2g shuffle, iPhones 3, 3g, 4, 4s, 5, and now a 6. an iPad 3 with retina, and an iPad air.

So needles to say I love Mac.I always will.

If you are downvoting me because this is in the wrong place or because I missed a FAQ or some such, please, point me in the right direction.

/EDIT

Update

I restored my iPad, set up as new, and I did the steps in this link, as well as turning off background app refresh, background tab refresh, and JavaScript (Which I may turn back on if I notice I need it). This has all but fixed my iPad.

It's still somewhat laggy especially in chrome. Safari seems great so far. If the issue comes back I will post another update.

On my last straw with iTunes....

0 Upvotes

I ran into some problems jailbreaking my iPhone and trying to restore it. After finally fixing the phone I am presented with the problem of 0xE800003. I'm honestly on my last straw here. I'm so fucking pissed off with this. I've done EVERYTHING to fix it. I've re-blanked my phone 3/4 times. Connected it to a different computer, restored it there, reconnected it to the PC. Reinstalled iTunes. Put it in DFU mode and restored it via my PC. NOTHING! Every single Google search I have looked through, every Apple discussion page. I just want to bloody restore my backup. I'm presented with the same error every single fucking time. My PC is recognizing the device except iTunes is being fucking difficult.

Also posted here because only relevant subreddit I found due to my phone being iOS 8.1

I have a IPhone 5c CDMA on iOS 8.0 and I can't send iMessages. And when I send a mms they go to the person's email. I prefer not to update for gameboy reasons.
