Hi,
I have a iphone 4 running iOS6.0.1
I have turned everything that I can find ON and my location services is off and greyed out. I can't do anything with it.
I have also tried to restore the phone and it is still the same.
Can anyone please help me? or is it impossible.
Thanks
Kay

Check: Settings>General>Restrictions...are yours on? Privacy>Location Services>On/Off.
Hi, thanks for answering. But as I have said I have tried this... All restrictions are off. It doesnt work..
I just can't inderstand why it wont work on my phone.
wjosten's answer did help me.
Step 1.: Settings > General > Restrictions: are off (button says "Enable Restrictions" if I want to turn it on).
Further down on that same list, Location Services is grayed out.
Step 2: Settings > Privacy > Location Services > ... turn them on or off as you please (they aren't grayed out anymore)
I tried everything. I turned everything on. I enabled absolutely everything I could find. But no matter what I did, it just stayed greyed out.
But today there was a software update for iOs 6.1. I updated my phone and at the end if the installation it asked me if I wanted to turn location services on. I chose yes and it worked.
I finally have it.
I just updated to IOS 7, and it turned off my Location Services, and greyed it out so that I could not turn it on. The suggestion to go to Settings / General / Restrictions did it for me. I was on the phone with Apple support when I read the post and tried it, and they didn't know about this. I told them to write it down, so others would know about it. Thanks for the post - it fixed me.
Cannot turn Location services on - greyed out
