Probably would help if you either described it better or included a screenshot.

  • Why does Reporter Smurf say my iPhone time is wrong? I just got the smurfs update and now Reporter Smurf is in my village. But when I click on him, his says "either your device time is incorrect or you don't have Internet connection." My time was auto set by my iPhone 4s and I have Internet connection. What should I do?
  • Why does my iPhone say up to date when iOS 6 is out today? I checked for system updates and it says version 5.whatever is up to date. It's the 19th iOS 6 came out today. My iPhone is lying to me. In fact, developers were getting copies of ios 6 all summer. Out or not, if 6 exsists somewhere, even in a workstation in Cupertino than iOS 5 is not up to date. It should read, "Version 5 is obsolete but nah nah can't have 6 yet!"
  • Why does my iPhone say it doesn't have memory when I haven't used all of it? I've had an iPhone 4s for about 5 months now and for some reason it says I don't have any memory left. It's got 16gb. I've used about 5gigs of music and mabey 2 in games but it says I only have 100 megabytes left. I went to system, usage and added up all the things i have downloaded and it comes up to around 10 gigabytes. Why does it say I don't have memory left?
