Why is the maximum year on the iphone 5 set to 2038 even tho it use to be infinite
iPhone 5, iOS 7.1.1
iOS 7 on my devices goes to at least 2053, so this is not an iOS fault. As Bob asked, how have you determined that your system only goes as far as 2038?
I have determined this by going to settings then to time and date and changing the year as far as it will go wich is 2038
It end at 2038 was a mistype
It's not the app I'm am asking about its the time and date setting in the iphone its self no apps were needed for this
I am sure by the time 2038 comes around that the OP would have updated the phone by then ( or Apple would have released an update ).
None of you have answered my question why has the iphone 5 got a max year of 2038
Don't worry about it, the phone won't support iOS31 🙂.
No, but if you check back on December 31, 2038, we will try and help you troubleshoot why you can't select 2039. Until then it is a non issue.
2038 - 2014 = 24
You have 24 years to wait until you wont be able to use your phone anymore because the calendar has run out of time.
well done you can do maths
I have Similar question. Why is my 2038 still not fix where in iPhone 7 it seems fixed?
Someone may need to scroll the wheel beyond 2038 if they are filming a Sci-Fi extract for a Time Lord. But then again, Who in the IT community would be interested in that sort of stuff? 😁
Year 2038why is the maximum year 2038
