What does the "Reset Network Settings" option do? I found this suggestion under the "calls connection issues" topic and all it says is that it will "clear current cellular and Wi-Fi network settings, saved networks, Wi-Fi passwords and VPN settings" but doesn't go into any details of what happens next. Will the phone just automatically reassign the proper settings or will I have a dead phone? I'm on Verizon and have iPhone 4S, OS 5.1 The reason I went looking is because when I first got the iPhone in Jan 2012, I would have issues with calls going straight to voicemail even though my phone was on and showing strong reception. The phone wouldn't ring or anything and then I wouldn't get my VM messages until hours later. This would also happen with text messages. I didn't even know there was an issue, nothing on the phone indicated anything like missed calls or bad/no connection, and would only find out when friends told me or I'd listen to the VM. And it didn't happen all the time just every now and again.
So I had to call Verizon several times and on the last call they refreshed my network line, so I didn't have to do a phone wipe/reset, and that seemed to do the trick. But just today I discovered that now calls are just ringing, but not ringing on my handset. So I have to dial *832 to test the line, which passes, and then everything is fine again:calls come through, and all texts that were held in purgatory while this anomaly happens, come through immediately. So I'm wondering if resetting the network will solve my issue. Is anyone experiencing the same? BTW, yes, I've checked the most obvious thing, and no, I do not have my ringer silenced, off, or have the switch on red.
My friend has an i4 4.0 jailbroke from jailbreakme. After jailbreak everything work fine for him. He had MMS working fine he could send and receive MMS no problems. Well the other day he tried to send an MMS and it wouldn't send out. It tries to send and the little bar on the top when you send a message comes up and it goes about 95 percent of the way and stops then he gets the red explanation mark after about 1 minute. So it doesn't go through. He has tried the Iphone Delivery repo and it didn't work, he has reset his network settings didn't work. Was wondering if anyone had any other advice? His facetime works fine no problems there. I assume the next step is a restore which he already knows but he is trying to fix it without restoring.
Every time when I need to switch from 3G to 4G, I need to reset network settings and toggle Airplane mode and restart the phone. Why? Is there a permanent fix?
When I got back from vacation my iPhone stopped to connecting to my home Wi-Fi, also it won't connect to any other Wi-Fi. It will not notify me when I have available networks to connect to. I've reset the network setting countless times and still nothing is working.Â
How do I re-set outlook to enable it to sync 2-way with my iphone 4s?
It used to sync both ways but i was asked a question by my computer about whether outlook should be the default setting and I accidentally said "yes". After that, any calendar/contacts info input first to my iphone is lost when I sync.

Following some 3G/Edge issue I 've reset my network settingson the Iphone, but now my wifi password is rejected.
I've cut and pasted the PW using caps, but the iphone keeps saying it's incorrect. I'm using a Sagem Livebox 2 ( Orange, France) no pairing is necessary.
What's the difference between Settings->Accounts->Google which sync all sorts of data, including "app data", and between Settings->Backup and Reset->Google Account, which also says that it backs up app data?
Operating latest iTunes and iOS software. iTunes recognizes my iPhone. When I select music to sync in iTunes, when syncing the sync bar skips over syncing music (goes1-2-4-5).
Previously I added one album to the phone. Now today when I attempted to syncmore music the album disappeared from my phone (even tho it was checked to sync in iTunes) and I now have no music on the phone.
Since downloading IOS 5.1.1 my selected music in iTunes will not download to my iphone 3GS. Never had this problem before. The itunes library shows all the albums I want to sync checked off and even when I connect the iphone with the sync cable the songs will not be synced. I've looked at all settings and everything looks the same as it always has. I did get a new iphone 3GS recently to replace a stolen one but all settings remain the same other then the new software 5.5.1.
Info: iPhone 3GS, iOS 5, Main syncing computer is MacBook
After jailbreaking and getting my phone exactly the way I want it, I've decided I don't want to have to use iTunes to manage my music and Apps. I just reformatted my PC, and now iTunes wants me to totally wipe my iPhone and start over - this is unacceptable.
So I would like to manage my music outside of iTunes, but prefereably still using the iPod app as opposed to a third party one. I did a quick search and found nothing on the forums. Googling has led me to a few ideas, but they all seem dated. I am not familiar enough with SSH to figure this one out by myself.
Apps may be trickier, but there are a number of apps I have downloaded through Cydia, etc. that I would need to re-download if I wiped my phone.
Any tips or advice would be great here. Each successful thread I post takes me one step closer to leaving Big Brother out of my smartphone experience!
My new iPhone 4S (iOS 5.0.1) won't sync apps or music from iTunes in my win7 operating system unless if they downloaded from i tunes store, and the sync does't work if the source of apps is a CD or DVDs!
I have purchased 4 MP3 music albums from Amazon. Their MP3 downloader software automatically ports the music over to iTunes, and the tracks appear in my iTunes library on my PC. However when I synch my iPhone this music does not move over to my iPhone.
My iPhone options include "manually manage music and videos" - is this a possible factor? When I check under Music, there is an unchecked box by "Synch Music." However if I check this box it will synch the entire music library.
My music from iTunes downloads or CD imports has always synched with no problem, so I am wondering if this problem has to do with the source being Amazon.
I'm not sure when this started but I've been putting up with it for a while. Most of the time when my iPhone 4s (iOS 5.1) syncs with iTunes (always running the latest version on Win 7) either via USB or WiFi, the songs I didn't purchase from the iTunes store (i.e. ripped) disappear from my iPhone. I have to then uncheck the box to sync music in iTunes and then recheck it so it copies all 2500+ songs back to the iPhone. I probably have to do this 2 times a week and would turn off syncing if I didn't have a need, but I do need it. This happens far more often on USB than WiFi but it's driving me crazy. While working with Apple support to troubleshoot another issue, I completely removed and reinstalled all Apple software and reset content and settings on my iPhone in the past 3-4 months.
I sync IPhone 4 to my itunes for the 1st time to upgrade the IOS and now it wont show my music it says i have it but I can't find it also when I plug it into my tahoe's radio and I try to listen to the music it automatically stops and i have to unplug it and try to play what ever again it won't ring at times and I haven't even wet this phone or drop it.
I am so tired of Apple screwing up my iPhone either with iOS or iTunes updates. This time I updated iTunes to 10.6.1, synced my iPhone, then I got a call and I notice that the ringtone wasn't the one I had set up as the default. I started checking and all my ringtones and music playlists were gone.
Info: MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.1), 2011 15", 2.3 GHz i7, 8GB RAM
I accidentally synced my iphone 4s to my sisters computer and now my computer won't recognize it and allow me to download music and photos etc. Is there some simple setting In need to do to allow my computer to recognize my iphone again?
I am trying to upload music to my iPhone 4 from iTunes. I can see my iPhone under the Devices section and can browser through the various tabs "Summary", "Info", etc. In the Music tab, I check the box to "Sync Music" and opt for "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres". I make my selection and can see the Capacity updating with the selections made. But then the only option I have is to click "Revert". I can see the "Apply" button, but it is greyed out - and cannot be selected. No "Sync" button appears.
