It is not often that a news organization becomes a source for IT knowledge or troubleshooting, but news.com.au have a great article on how to fix the most common IOS7 issues that users are experiencing during and after upgrades. The article is here – http://www.news.com.au/technology/smartphones/troubleshooting-for-struggling-apple-ios-7-users/story-fn6vihic-1226723564685
It covers:

- The wi-fi button is greyed out
- Group messaging doesn’t work
