IPhone 4s :: Not Recognizing WiFi Even After Resets / Restore
Jun 1, 2014
Why is my iPhone 4s not recognizing wi-fi? I have completed the Netrork Reset several times and have even done a restore from iTunes (after doing an entire Reset). It seemed to fix the problem for an hour or so but now the Wi-Fi button will not turn on again. Also, my phone is slower than ever before.Â
I would hope Apple doesn't configure the phones to quit BEFORE most people can upgrede or IMMEDIATELY AFTER the warranty runs out. Â

I updated my Bold 9900 last night and was restoring settings but something happened and the program froze. Now the desktop software is not recognizing the bakcup file. Is there anything I can do?

Two days ago my phone kept disconnecting from my home wifi, leaving me to use 4G without noticing most of the time. It caught my attention the next day and I tried everything the Apple troubleshoot page says for this issue and was left unable to connect to my wifi, period. I had no choice but to restore my phone.Â
Restoring it from backup didn't fix the issue, so I restored again as a new phone. Not only can I not get to my wifi tab, the Settings app in particular keeps freezing as well as others. I am unable to click anything, not even to go to the home screen or shut it off from the top until one minute passes and it turns off on its own. Then sometimes I can't turn it back on, and I have to reboot it because the whole screen is black.Â
Is there any reason my phone is suddenly freezing so much after a complete restore? Is there anything I can do about my wifi? I thought anything that was causing the defects would be wiped but now I have more problems than I started with. Â

I have been trying to restore my iPhone 4S over iCloud since yesterday. Invariably, it will fail with the message that the iPhone is no longer connected to the internet. The wifi over which my iPhone is connected is also being used by four other computers that have no problems maintaining their connection with the internet. Currently, the estimated time remaining for the restore is 11 hours. It has come down from 52 hours. This over a broadband connection of 120Mb/sec down and 9 Mb/sec up. The size of the backup on iCloud from which I am trying to restore my iPhone is 8GB.

I wiped my iphone 4 clean and did a install from last iCloud backup. The night before last around midnight. It's halfway restored on a 13gb backup. 30+ hours later. It's been on wifi the entire time except one hour last night when I ran to then store. I'm keeping it plugged in to the power outlet too. I've seen it take a while to restore before for approx 1 FB less. It's never been this long. WTHeck is going on? Can I push this process along at all? I tried to delete some apps that are waiting to be redownloaded...and 1 minute later
They were back on the screen... So that's not helpful.
what I can do about this... It's been downloaded my snapfish app for many many hours (they all took a long time..) this one is taking soooo long

If I don't, the phone will not change time zones (when I am traveling) and sometimes will not pass smoothly from cell tower to cell tower. It came to my attention while traveling with a companion who had an identical 4S, bought 4 weeks after I bought mine in December. Email delivery to the iphone also is effected. When I found I was not getting my emails, or even my phone calls I went back to the sprint store I bought it from for help. The Sprint staffer there performed a Network Reset which cured the problem for the time being.

I have a new iPhone 4S that has developed the habit of shutting off randomly by itself. When I pick it up after it has been on standby for a while, the buttons are not responsive, then after a few more tries I get the apple logo, which I presume means the phone is resetting itself. It concerns me, since my family and I keep in touch via texting during the day, so if the phone has shut off, they can't reach me and I don't know that they are trying to.
I took it to the genius bar today, and they suggested I do a restore. My concern is that some of the games I have accumulated a lot of points in will be set back to zero. I have tried the regular reset procedure by holding down the button and swiping the 'shut off' option

Shortly after I got the iPhone 4, one of the IT guys at work setup the site secure Wifi for me as well as configured VPN so I could get email remotely. This weekend I dropped the phone and had to get it replaced. When I restored all my stored passwords were gone (though everything else restored beautifully).
That IT guy is now gone, is there any way at all to restore these passwords from a stored backup?

I was having issues connecting to my gmail account and after reading other threads on this site and trying other suggestions I eventually decided to do a factory restore.
I am now connected to my gmail, but can no longer connect to my home wifi.

I've gone through the steps of checking if I have the latest iTunes, (I do), restarting iPhone, restarting iMac, and still don't see it come up on my desktop. Have just purchased "Phone to Mac" to try get easier access to photos and tunes on my phone, but even that doesn't recognise that my iPhone is plugged in (directly from the usb on my mac).

This only started happening recently, but I don't know what changed - the last update I recall to my phone was an update to the carrier settings. For some reason, however, the messages app on my phone no longer matches message senders up to contacts in my address book. Aside from the visual implications (who does that number belong to again?), I had assigned different tones to different people. Now that SMS is no longer matching up to my address book, everyone gets the same generic tone. I have tried deleting contacts and re-entering them from the SMS screen, but that didn't seem to make a difference. The same problem occurs even when I send a SMS from the address book - the SMS is only identified by number, and is not matched up to the address book entry.
I am running a fully updated unlocked iPhone 4S (5.1).

my dad got my an iphone for christmas and he wanted me to use my virgin sim card in it so i had to jailbreak it and unlock it so i did and it was working perfectly fine until one night. I was watching tv on my phone and decided to go to sleep the phone had 33% battery left so i thought ok it should last the whole night when i woke up the next morning my phone died on me. I tried putting it on charge and turned it back on but to shut itself down for some reason even thought the battery by then was roughly 50% so i tried restoring everything back to original software and now it wont recognise the original orange sim card it came with when i got my phone. I have also tried using an virgin simcard just in case and also used an 02 simcard aswell for good measures but nothing all i get is
"There is no SIM card installed in the phone you are attempting to activate. Please dissconect and insert a SIM card into the iPhone"

my iPhone 4 is not recognizing the charger when I plug it into the bottom of the phone - therefore, I cannot charge it. How did you go about resolving it and what sort of cost is involved to get it fixed?

I just got a new macbook pro and I have mostly made it similar to my old mac (I did it manually cause I didn't want to copy every little thing from the old mac so I didn't use migration assistance except for the applications).Anyways, I even took my old itunes folder from my old computer and replaced it over the current itunes folder. So that made itunes show up exactly like it did on my old computer (kept my playlists that told me when I added a song).
Problem:
I just connected my iphone right now just to see what would happen (like would it wipe it clean, look at it as a guest iphone, be able to recognize it).Except, the iphone doesn't recognize it is plugged into a computer (it starts charging but doesn't say syncing or anything) and itunes acts like nothing got plugged in at all. They totally are not making any recognition that they are connected (The iphone is treating the laptop like a plug in the wall charger basically).
How do I get itunes to recognize there is an iphone connected to it?
I just want to add if it helps, I just tried my ipod (though I haven't synced the ipod in a while) and it recognizes it (and it does not recognize it as a new ipod but as what I named it and everything). And my old computer recognizes my iphone fine.
