Why the iphone is disabled message?
I woke up at about 3am to this message on my phone. It was on a charger at the time. In addition it said "try again in 1min". I was not in the mindset to wait 1 minute at 3 am so i went back to sleep and when I woke up at 8am, all was fine.
After doing some research it seems that the leading cause of this issue is too many wrong password attempts. I doubt that i tried the password in my sleep, so what could be the real issue? After 10 wrong attempts, my phone should wipe itself and there was no sign of that.
I did notice that the slide bar was flashing "slide to unlock" in different languages like it does when you firt set up the phone or after a major update. Any thoughts?
Added (1). Thats is definitely a possibility in the apartment i'm in now. The power seems to fluctuate all the time and The phone charger is one of the few Items that is not on a power strip. I have noticed since I have moved in that the gfi outlets trip all the time.
Household power surge… Electricity in a house can flux at any time, even on a sunny day or moonlit night… No brainer there… Common is OLD pre1980 houses/trailors… If you are NOT connected to a surge protector, your electrical appliances can be at risk…
so, more than likely, your phone got a extra jolt of juice, thus causing the software issues… Press together power+home keys until apple logo apears then let go and let it reboot. No worries. No data will be lost.
If this issue continues though… Try an itunes restoral OR contact AppleCare at 1800myiphone… You may have corrupted hardware or software due to the jolt
- Will my message be delivered if sent as text message on iphone? My friend said that she was having phone problems earlier today. My message was being sent as an imessage, but I guess she wasn't receiving everyone of them, just getting the notifications that they were sent to her but she couldn't read them. I then responded to her, but it was sent as a text message this time and i have gotten no response. I'm not as much concerned about her responding or not, I just want to know if she will receive the message.
- Why won't my 5c send a message as MMS when it's a long message to a non iPhone user? Whenever I type a LONG message to an SMS user (says Text Message in the messaging "box") my 5c won't convert to MMS and the recipient gets the message in dozens of out of order messages instead of the whole fluid message. I have MMS on in Settings. What can I do and why is it doing this?
- Why is my iphone making the message tone but no message? My iphone, for the first ever time made the message tone and I have no message? There's no app on my phone that makes the same sound either I have checked, apart from tweet on settings, but I don't even have twitter… I received a message 20 Minuits before this happened but I read it and replied… I have a lot of storage on my phone so it can't be that either… So what is it?
