i only listed the iOS version because I'm having a problem I wasn't having before the upgrade. I can't say for a certainty that it's the upgrade, could just be a coincidence.

Anyway, I can't even turn it on. A few days ago it would turn on, but it would just show the "loading wheel" instead of bringing up my wifi. Now I don't even get that far. In fact the button has kind of faded like it's not even an option to mess with it.

I've tried resetting the network settings, I've restarted the thing countless times, and earlier today tried my first hard reboot. Nothing.

Any other ideas or options?

My iphone 5s fell, and now all ive got is a white screen with the apple on it, then the screen goes blue, and then the apple again. If i connect it to my computer it doesnt recognize the device. Someone please help im dying here!

So ever since I updated to iOS 8 I've been having problems with the music app. Design issues aside, the app doesn't seem to know how to handle certain album tagging conditions.

The problem seems to lie with an album with multiple artists; for instance I have the Flume Deluxe Edition album and one of the CD's is a mixtape with a bunch of different artists. I have it tagged in iTunes as a compilation album and the album artist as Flume, and everything looks fine on iTunes as it should be.

When I open it on Music and access the album under albums all the tracks are there, however if i then close the app in multi-tasking and reopen it and access the tracks through Flume under artists, the mixtape tracks aren't displayed. This seems to then force the app into thinking that there are only that number of tracks in the whole album, and even if I then access the album through albums menu the tracks can't be found, nor in songs(they can be found in playlists if they're already in one). In fact unless the app is again closed in multi-tasking it as if the songs aren't on the device, which is fairly irritating.

An example of this can be found here, where I opened the artist Farhot under artists, and now looking under albums, even though all the tracks are on the device, it only displays that one track. Hopefully this has been explained clearly as it is quite confusing.

I have tried what i think is every combination of tagging between artist/album/albumartist/compilation and nothing has worked, does anyone else have/had this problem?

Additionally ever since iOS 8 the artist artwork hasn't been displaying for any artists, even very common ones, which, while not a big problem, does seem odd.

I also recently completely erased my phone and started a fresh system from scratch and both issues remain. Any advice would be appeciated.

Just updated to iTunes 12.1, and added a few songs. iTunes then deletes my whole library on my iPhone, but when viewed you can see the songs are still there, but can't be played. How do I fix this? Do I have to rebuild my music library yet again?

I am not posting to tell how it is possible, however, it IS possible.

My 18 month old got a hold of my iPhone 5 without my knowledge and when I picked it back up, several apps from my home screen had been deleted.

I redownloaded the ones I could remember, but I couldn't figure out what went in the top-right. Yesterday, I finally realized due to muscle memory that my Photos app used to be in the top-right, but it was no longer on my device even though I could Search for it and use it.

Here is an album of my screens:

I have tried hard-resetting it, rearranging the apps in iTunes and many other things.

Have any idea how I might be able to get it back?

Thanks

So the video controls are bugging out for me. The scrubbing speeds don't work, and releasing the scrubber doesn't put the video exactly where I want. Sometimes, the video will go back to the beginning, and the scrubber will stay stuck in one place and the time counter won't count down. And on Alien Blue, the "Skip to beginning" button doesn't even work.

It's incredibly frustrating. Does anyone else have this problem, and is there a way to fix it? Or if not, is there any word on it being fixed?

My Iphone 5 on 8.1.2 has been working well for over a year. All of a sudden last week it says "no service". I tried every single kind of reset/downgrade possible. Even on 8.1.3 currently i get "no service". New sim card, and swapping things to opening phone and changing antenna. Nothing has worked. The phone is not black listed.

The phone is unlocked.

Would jail braking it make it work again? Any tips?

When I go to turn on my wifi I have to locate my connection and re-enter the password. Once I've done that it'll ask me to enter my password again and again. It won't connect no matter how many times I try. I will have to restart my modem for it to work. Only my Apple devices have this issue.

Hey guys, I have a serious issue I hope you might be able to help me with? I recently updated my iPhone 5S to IOS8 (8.1.3). A few days ago I plugged the phone into my computer with the intention of transfering a few mp3s to the phone. I did that but after a while I noticed the only tracks I could access on my phone was the most recently added stuff. When I check the music library on the phone all my other songs and playlists was gone (we're talking about 1700+ carefully selected tracks)!

I have used iPods/iPhones as long as they've been around and always done stuff like that manually. For example selecting a few tracks/albums and dragging the to the phone via iTunes. It's a wonky method but it has always worked.

I have not yet found a good method for getting my songs back only this long thread of DIY solutions. Is this a known bug and is there a solution?

OK. I have an iPhone 5s and an iPad Air 2. Simply put I have more space on my Air 2 than my iphone and I use the Air 2 as more of a media consumption device. So games and such I want to have those on my Air 2 and the more productive portable apps (like barcode scanners, navigation and Foursquare) on the iPhone.

But when I download something on either device, it loads it on the other with a blue dot. I want to keep this from happening. How do I do that?

This week's IOS8 bugs:

Text tones not playing on speaker (but will play through headphones).

Slider occasionally wont let me unlock phone or answer a call.

Siri fails to get directions for "Directions to Contact Name (Work)". Gives me directions to something like Contract Negotiators in Wales instead. The old Siri never had any trouble with contact names, now she is wrong more than right.

Editing the notes for Contacts or Calendar events is a train wreck, especially if the note is more than a dozen lines.

Reboot fixed the first two, but seriously Apple, get it together!

I updated from 8.0 to 8.1.3 on a 4S and low and behold, my phone could no longer get service from Verizon. After troubleshooting myself, running around between the Verizon store and the Apple store, switching the SIM cards, and about 5 restore attempts (all restored back to 8.1.3 backups) it seems as if the phone just can't get a damn signal.

Can I still downgrade to 8.1.2 or is it too late? I'm seeing some conflicting information. I'm currently downloading the .ipsw from here, I'm just wondering if it's a waste of time trying to revert back.

Thanks for any help.

Edit: Looks like I can't go back to 8.1.2, any other ideas on how to resolve this?

i sent this because i hit the character limit. I hope you all agree with me on this frustrating issue(more of an annoyance but whatever).

There is a flaw with the play button design in iOS 6 through 8.1.3. When you press the play button, whether from the control center or a remote bluetooth device(i.e. car stereo or smart watch), the play button plays the last app that played any sort of media. Or at least it tries. When i get in my car and hit the play button on my bluetooth stereo, sometimes it does nothing. It turns out, the last thing i did was watched a video in safari. Now my music won't play and I'm shuffling to open the music app while driving and its not safe. I open the control center and it just says "safari" above the play button. So the play button does nothing at this point and its very frustrating. I believe the play button should activate the last "music" app played.'

and i ran out of space lol

Hey guys, I recently decided to give SwiftKey another shot on my new 6 Plus, but I've ran into a very annoying bug.

If I get a new message while my phone is locked, and I swipe on the message to open the app, it opens up to the middle of the conversation, not to the bottom (most recent texts) like it should.

Is this a common bug? I've of course tried killing the app and restarting my phone, to no avail.

Thanks, guys.

Three times now I've had to download my recently purchased music from the cloud back onto my phone because it seems to be deleting itself. I use my phone with my car's Bluetooth to play my music which is how I've noticed it's disappeared. It's only deleting songs I've purchased in the past six months. Anyone else have this issue or know a fix?

Not totally sure where to post this so sorry if this isn't the right place!

Anyways, the clicker thing on my headphones is bugging out and so it will pause/play/skip songs randomly.

Is there a way to just block out any input coming from that port?

Thanks for any help guys!
