So basically all of a sudden my wifi wasn't working, it just switched to data/3G. I thought the wifi was down so I just continued using data but after a long time I went to check and saw that the wifi was switched off and greyed out. I tried everything! I turned it on and off, I put airplane/do not disturb on, then turned my phone off waited 5-10 minutes, turned it back on then switched the modes off. It allowed me to turn the wifi button on so I thought it worked but no internet connections came up.
I locked my phone went to the movie theater then I noticed I couldn't even click on the wifi button at settings it just froze, same with trying to open up my texts, I couldn't even turn my phone off. I tried resetting network settings too. I finally restored it just now then backed up and now the wifi is turned off and grey again but everything else is working. I don't want to do the freeze/heating method so what else can I do? Is my only resort going in person to the local apple store?
I'm travelling and networks working on other phone will not connect with mine. It views them and allows me to put in the password, but the actual connect button is grayed out.
After finally getting access to the wifi button in safe mode, I knew the issue was caused by an app. The only one I had recently installed was TMobile. Sure enough, uninstalling it solved all 3 of these issues.
I just finished updating my Iphone 4's firmware to iOS 5.1. I have all of my text messages, notes, contacts, and mail restored, but none of my music, videos, or any of my downloaded apps have been restored. I tried to manually restore them but the last backup didn't save music, videos, or apps only the texts, notes, and contacts. After checking and unchecking the sync apps, etc. box in itunes under my phone, itunes will update the amount of memory used on my iphone, but it doesn't actually sync anything. I have tried to manually manage my music and vice versa but still nothing.
Also, I cannot sync through wi-fi because even though the box is checked for it on iTunes, my phone is not recognizing. My main problem is that the apply button for my changed options on iTunes is NOT working aka greyed out. I don't want to call Apple support and pay a ridiculous amount for a problem that's probably easily fixed or restore my phone again. Also, I have tried restarting my phone, itunes, and my computer various times. I am running the latest version of iTunes, ios firmware, and I have a pc.
The location services button is grayed out (in the off position and I cannot select ON or OFF. Why is this? I am trying to set up location thru Find My Phone, and this button needs to be ON in order for the phone to be tracked.
Under Alarm -Â Sound button is greyed out in Iphone 5, how to activate it?I m not able to select other tones for the Alarm since it's greyed.The phone literally hangs and I had to come out of the screen by pressing the home button.
I am having issue atm with sleep button it just get stuck without any reason I was just holding the phone in my hands and running didn't drop it or anything.
I re-set up my Hotmail account on my iPhone 4S (IOS 7.1.1) tonight after deleting it due to space issues. I have set it up as pop account with the previous settings but now to send a mail from my iPhone I have to save it as draft as the send button is greyed out. When I open the draft the send button is available and sends my mails as normal - what setting have I missed to make this happen?Â
Here are the settings I used:
Incoming Mail server: Host Name: pop3.live.com User name XX@hotmail.com Password: XXÂ Outgoing mail server: SMTP/Primary server: smtp.live.com (marked "On") Host name: smtp.live.com User Name: XX@hotmail.com Password: xx User SSL: "On" Authentication: Password Server Port: 587Â
My iphone 4 home button has stopped working.I have tried massaging the button in case there is dirt under it but to no avail. The home button has quit for no reason.
Ok look, it is not a hardware issue, why? Because five minutes before updating i was surfing youtube, I decided to go from ios 7 to ios 8.1.1, and then suddenly my wifi is like NOPE and is grayed out and useless. I hear its cause newer ios's over heat the older wifi components, but i can not prove or even look into that. All i know is that freezing it works for about an hour, then its kaput and grayed out again. Funny how my ipod 4 still works after years and years but my iphone doesn't. I have done the whole reset network settings song and dance, all that's left is to dig through the files and force it to work.
Info: iPhone 4S, iOS 8.1.1, Using it as an ipod with 1GB of ram
It's been a few weeks since I used the wifi on my iphone 5 and when I tried to turn it on it stays grayed out. I've tried the Network settings reset and it still does not work.Â
I cannot enable my wifi because it is grayed out. I some of the recommended actions that I could do mannually to turn the wifi on but I'm still having trouble connecting to the internet via Wifi. I am thinking that I have to add a VPN but I don't know exactly what that means.
My iPhone 4s 7.1.1 no longer allows me to turn on my WiFi or Bluetooth. The wifi is grayed out and doesn't respond to touch, the bluetooth has the constantly spinning loading icon instead of the activation switch.Â
I tried to download the latest software, but cannot do it without WiFi connection. I have restarted my phone, made sure the wifi was off, and reset the network settings, no luck.Â
I recently update firmware 5.1 on my iphone 4s and now cannot connect to my wifi. I have tried resetting network -reset all settings etc., to no avail.
