IPhone :: "This Accessory Is Not Made To Work With Phone" - How To Permanently Delete Message
Jan 5, 2010
This is not the same problem as the earlier post today from the guy getting this message in error. I have a car hook-up that uses the dock connector into my CD changer and it works just great. It was originally for an older iPod so it doesn't charge my iPhone 3Gs but I'm OK with that.
Every time I plug in however I get "This accessory is not made to work with iPhone". I know it's not made to work with iPhone, I understand what it's telling me and I'm happy with that - is there some way to permanently dismiss this message?
I have this message pop up every time I plug it into my car. It's a minor annoyance that I can live with but I was wondering if anybody knows of any way to block it.I have pop ups blocked with Lockinfo but this one gets past it.
if somebody makes an appointment, invites me, I accept. It is in my calendar. Then I change my mind and want to edit or delete this event. I dont get that option, how do I do this?
I am getting a message every 10-15 seconds that says that the accessory is not optimized for the iphone, even though the phone is not plugged into anything. It is draining the battery very quickly. Does anyone know how to resolve this?
When I plug in my iPhone 5s I get a message saying "this accessory may not be supported." I have done some research and I have found that this occurs when you use non apple certified chargers, which by the way I am not using. I have also been told not to use the iPad adapted either, which I am not. So, if I am using the original cable and adapter, then why am I getting this message? What should I do?
2nd try, Apple Support? deleted my first post , as they think it exceeded the Terms, I've gotta disagree having just reread them in detail. So, to business I have trialed a lot of free apps that I wish to remove from the phone & itunes permanently, from everywhere, no reference left at all. I have read many posts about removing apps but the 'purchase' history is left behind, not good enough, I want everything gone, including history, I need to know how to remove this rubbish history. Every other piece of software I have ever bought for any device allowed me to uninstall it completely so I can divine no reason not to provide this feature. I know about the 'ability to reload purchases' stuff but these app's were free so this is irrelevant. Even if they were paid for surely it is my right to remove them completely fully understanding that if required again I will need to buy them again.
I am using the official charger that came with my iphone 5. one it doest charge just shows the "this cable or accessory is not certified......" i used another cable and it works just fine. but i when i use the official charger that came with it doesn't charge. just the same error.
Iphone 5 died last week. Completely dead. Can't be salvaged.  Problems began after software update and the "this accessory" may not be supported error messages and issues. Â
Trying to wait to purchase a replacement after Sept 9th I reactivated a iphone4. Working fine. On a job, using it, put it in my bag, pull it out, its COMPLETELY dead. Will not turn on. Not recognized by itunes, won't turn with any approach. It also had the software update. Â
What in the world?? Â
So now I have two dead phones and two weeks until the 6 comes out.
I have an iPhone 5 and my battery will be replaced soon. I want to know how can i permanently delete my photos, videos and contacts from my device before the replacement.
I use iMessage and delete all my previous messages from my iPhone.
I recently backed up my iphone and a few days later tried to restore my iphone from the old backup, I did that and during those few days any iMessage I had sent and deleted all came back to my iphone. I thought i had deleted those messages for privacy reasons but doing the reset from the old backup made them messages come back.
Now my question is, are these iMessages saved somewhere on Apple servers or iCloud? I dont use iCloud feature on iphone. This is major privacy concern for me and is there any way to permanently delete these messages not just from iphone and never have such situation described above where the deleted imessages reappear.
I have deleted an email address from my Iphone 4 and the contact has defnately gone, but if I goto Email and compose a new message and type 1st few letters of that email address, then it appears.Can I remove it permanently so this doesnt happen.
My iphone 4 started displaying a message box with the following message: "This accessory is not optimized for this phone. You may experience noise and loss of battery." (I'm losing battery power precipitously).
I have my blackberry bold connected to my facebook which i like alot but the calendar notifications really bother me because it makes a huge mess when im getting texts. I tried unchecking the "sync calendar to facebook option" but they still keep coming. I delete the full calendar using blackberry desktop software, but the calendar will come back in 3 days or so, even if i dont press the back-up option. It is a huge inconvenience to have to delete them all every few days and i have no use of the blackberry calendar for anything. I am completely lost and i just need a way to get rid of the calendar entries permanently, or take them off my notifications.
How do I permanently delete messages from my blackberry. I know it still stores all your messages even if you delete. That's why I'd like to know how to permanently delete messages.
I have an iPhone 4s. I have downloaded the most unto date iOS version, then plugged the apple charger in. The phone came up with a message stating "charging not supported with this accessory". However, if I hold the charger into the connector, this sometimes charges the phone. Seems strange this only occurred after iOS update"
Info: iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1.1, happened on 1st charge after update
My phone was slowing down, so i restored it and chose the wrong backup (i did not see the backup that was made today). I option+clicked the restore button to point it to the backup that was made today, but when i go to the "/Users/username/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/backup" folder there are no clickable files to select. Am I looking in the right place? How do I restore from that most recent backup? I would like to do it without having to completely restore my phone again.
I have the M8 on Verizon and have some pictures that I keep deleting the pictures in both photos and gallery but they keep coming back. I disabled Verizon cloud and turned off dropbox photo upload but they will not stay deleted. I even say yes to delete everywhere. What am I missing? Is there anything else that needs done.
I have a question about deleting unnecessary folders from phone memory ( mass memory and memory card).When navigating through memory seeing those useless folders is a big annoyance, they basically just on the way.I'm talking about folders like - playlists, music , games, video and sound files and so on, for which I have no use.Some of them I cannot delete at all.Others after deletion reappear like nothing happened.
I'm not a child and like to keep everything organized.How can I delete those folders permanently or at least hide it?
When I click on them, I have to individually download each (the phone just comes with the links/logos), but I only have use for one game and three downloads (starred). How do I get rid of the rest in my games and downloads folders? I've tried deleting them with BlackBerry Desktop Manager, but the links/logos still show up... The games I have: Brick Breaker* Tony Hawk Vert Guitar Hero 5 Mobile Bubble Bash 2 Brain Challenge Vol. 2 Tetris Demo Where's Waldo?
