Why iOS 6 crashes on my iPhone 4s? i cant listen music for more than 30 seconds and every app crashes over a few minutes of use.

Still no joy - iphone is a brick.

I removed all apps, all contacts, all music, all videos - dead.

Tried to restore as a new phone - would not activate.

this is SHIP@@@ my phone justcrashed trying to take a picture. Perfect picture of two yearold lost to this POS! who the crap came up with this new IOS. maps were better and every app worked. now everything is SHIP@@@!😠😠😠

Hi,

Try to deactivate the FACEBOOK INTEGRATION (go to settings).. After i removed it to my iphone 4 All apps are now doing fine... No more crashing of apps :-) hope it works for you...

The problem is with facebook, go to settings / facebook / your user name and delete your account, the do a hard reset (home+power for some seconds).

dont need to delete the facebook app! just delete your integrate account from settings

I have a iPhone 4S upgraded to ios6 and have experienced similar crash issues with maps, safari, games and many other apps. Checked the crash log and it says "low memory", which is crap as I always close down unused apps and I have 13GB free storage. Sometimes programmes can "hold onto memory" and not release it for use by other programmes. So I thought I would test this by hard re-setting the device (holding down the sleep and home keys).

This worked a treat and fixed my issues straight away.

The problem is, that if I am correct, it will be up to Apple to identify the rogue programme (or maybe it is iOS itself) and get it fixed. It may mean we will need to re set regularly until it is resolved.

Hope this helps someone.

my iphone 4 was working fine until I gave in and

upgraded to ios 6 , now it will not allow me to watch

YouTube for more than about a minute, mostly a few

seconds. Also it won't allow me to use BBC iplayer or

iradio. This is infuriating and I can't fix it! I've tried

everything that has been suggested so far Apple

genius (?) were useless and even had the gall to say

I was getting pretty good use of the phone anyway!

I look forward to deleting facebook,in fact some bugger

should have strangled it at birth.

yrs crossly. AV

in my phone i dont have problems in any apps, but the bad luck i have is my wifi wont work 😟 i cant enjoy my phone....:( i need help

Thanks for the information. This resolved my issues with the Twitter app immediately.

NOTE: This fix will remove all data off ur device.

i have a fix that worked for me i found out that it was my backups on icloud and on my mac the error on my iphone 4s in diagnostics and usage said kern_protection_failurewhich made my devide restart.

ok to fix go to settings/general/reset/erase all content and settings when done dont enter any apple id or back up and it should fix ur device.

Thats what happened to

My ipod touch 4 it turned balack and blue with a white line and it keeps

Doing that till the battery dies

CLEAR you keyboard shortcuts, if you have any, that made a huge difference. Since I deleted all of mine, my iPod 4th geberation has been running just fine.

sorry noworkee!

I would try restoring as a new phone, assuming ou have tried restoring from a backup. Things like photos and contacts etc.. can be put back on by exporting or storing them, on iCloud

There are two solutions:

1. Buy the iPhone 5. This is how Apple would like you to solve this problem. It is why they program the update the way they do... So your "old" phone will not work correctly.

2. Restore to a date prior to installing the update and wait until your plan allows you to switch phones. Then go buy a Samsung Galaxy SIII. This is what I'm going to do.

NEVER insta a firmware update meant for the new phone unless you already have the new phone.

1. All I can say is that Apple is already working on a solution, and it works great for me.

2. Go on, once you switch you'll start to notice subtle yet important features in iOS that you take for granted- missing.

Having upgraded my ipad and itouch to IOS6 when it first came out, I had no issues. Today, all of a sudden, after having no problems I began experiencing similar issues as described - would't switch on/ crashing out/ freezing/restarting etc. Having seen a couple of mentions of Facebook integration, I half-heartedly gave it a go and it seems to have worked.

Go to settings, facebook and deactivate the account. There is no need to delete the facebook app - this will still work as normal (in fact, I am not entirely sure what the integration bit is supposed to do). Anyway, for the timebeing at least, it seems to have worked - testament is that i can type this without it crashing!

Strange that all was fine for ages before it started to have these problems!
