You say iPhone 4s but list an iPhone 3GS
Try to reset:
Hold the Sleep/Wake & home buttons until the screen goes dark & the Apple logo appears
To power off:
Hold the Sleep\Wake button until you see slide to power off then slide to power off

I forgot to say I had already tried that as well. Just in case, I just tried it again and there was no change :S
Are you running the Apple-supplied RAM? Have you run Apple Hardware Test? I don't know what else you've tried, but this may be time to do a fresh install of Lion if you have not done so since installing Lion. -

Wifi just stopped working on an iPhone 4S, iOS 8.1.3. Have reset to factory settings and restored, still no wifi. Will next release of iOS address this problem?

Have iPod Nano Shuffle 6th Gen. I purchased it when I had Windows Vista. I have since upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate . Was fine with Vista. Now, it keeps shutting off during the song, 3 or 4 times. Have to press power button and then arrow to restart song. I went to my iTunes and ran diagnostics. Passed all until the end. The last test had a red dot failure. It said no iPod, iPhone, or iPad found. Does someone know how I can correct the problem? iTunes is always updating, so I am current.

I dropped my iphone 4s in water yesterday. Got out my old 3g to use temporarily. I synced it to itunes and restored from backup. However, none of my pictures or text messages transferred to the 3g. Did I do something wrong? Why won't those transfer? I had just synced my 4s over the weekend. Everything I have read says to just hit restore and it should have restored to what was on my 4s. Can someone please tell me if I've lost those things forever?
Thank you.I'd review these articles

If you got a replacement iPhone 4s or iPhone 5 you could restore the backup of the damaged 4s device to either device. -
My ipad air won't complete restore from cloud. Any ideas?
Just purchased iPad Air and restored from iCloud. It appears stuck now for a couple days and it won't let me update the iOS until it finish's. Any ideas on what it is? I have very few photos so I do not know what the problem is. I have sync'd with itunes for my videos so I don't see that being an issue.
You restored what from iCloud? The backup of a previous iPad?
Are you using wifi?
Reboot the iPad, turn off wifi and use iTunes to update and restore. -
FCE 4.0.1 won't open when I click the icon in the Dock or in the Applications icon of FCE. It had been working well but I had trouble when I trashed the reference Scratch disk to a project and I was asked to get it back. I checked all my drives through verify in Disk Utility and a couple needed repair - eventually were given the OK. I then Shut Down and rebooted, I then trashed the FCE App and reinstalled from the Install discs and , finally, I tried opening a FCE project. None of these caused the FCE App to open with Browser, Viewer, Canvas,. Time Line. All that happens is the the first FCE window, the one that says FCE registered to...and the other that says loading AE Effects, Video Effects does show but then nothing except my Desktop with it's various folders and files I also downloaded the Plug In Tom Wolsky suggested to a recent query.
All I can think of is to backup everything to HDs and take this iMac in for a service.It is only six months old - I reckon it will be poor driving by it's proud but unskilled driver!

New ZealandDon't panic . . . . . yet!
You may not have trashed FCE properly.
Deleting the application icon is useless as there are a number of files hidden elsewhere which may be corrupt.
Download this free app to uninstall FCE completely and then reinstall it.
FCS Remover - Uninstall Final Cut Studio, Final Cut Pro, Motion, Compressor, Soundtrack Pro, Color, DVD Studio Pro, LiveType, Cinema Tools
I know it is called FCS Remover but it also works for FCE. -
We have two iphones each with a different apple id - can i use the same laptop and itunes for back up, restore and updates without risking having my apps overwritten. Basically does itunes keep the two iphones as two separate entities ? Does iTunes differentiate between the two devices and keep two different SYNCs ?
Yes, you can use the same computer for BACK UPS, RESTORING AND UPDATING. But that is it.
You cannot, however, use it to sync the different devices. iTunes will only recognize one device to sync with and if you sync any other devices with that iTunes library, it will replace what is on the phone with whatever is in the library. It cannot differentiate between devices. At most, it will jsut recognize that the phone has been synced with a different iTunes library.
So if you would like to use the same computer for backing up, restoring and updating, just make sure to turn of Automatic Syncing in your iTunes Preferences. -
I changed a few settings on my iPad and now cant get the iPad to shut off with the shutoff button and the button to get to all the icons won't let me get back to settings to change the settings back. Can anyone help?
Have you tried resetting your iPad?
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
No data will be lost. -
Hello, Apple Community:

We are using iPads that are locked down with Guided Access and secured within hard plastic mounts screwed down onto a countertop. We can press the home button with a paperclip, but that's it. We don't want to use auto-lock because there might be several hours where the terminals aren't used, but we don't want them to go to sleep during business hours, otherwise we'll have to grab a paper clip and turn them back on. Also, if we set the auto-lock to several hours, then the iPads wouldn't be off for very long at night. I want to turn them off when we close at night, but it's challenging to open the cases and lift the iPads out, so that's not a reasonable option.
Any thoughts?Look for a new case.
There is varying opinions where it is best to power down electronics overnight or leave them on all the time to lengthen the life of a device.
I power down to save electricity at night.

Screen won't switch off on Photosmart c309a. Power Saver mode not working?
Hi everyone.
I'm having a small problem with my new Photosmart c309a all-in-one. I set it all up yesterday and everything went fine, but the next morning I noticed the screen was on and had been on all night. I would think it should power down to save energy. I found the "power saver" mode in the preferences, but it was already on.
Does anyone know if it is supposed to go into standby mode or something? I don't really like the idea of the screen being on all the time.
I set it up to use wireless connection from both a Mac and Windows Vista machine.
Thanks!2 possibilities:
o Your iPod has a software-based error. Solution: On iTunes, click on the "Restore" button in your iPod's page.
o Your iPod has a physical problem. Solution: Depending on the actual problem, go to an apple store, and they will tell you if they can do anything to it. If they can't, I'm sorry, but your iPod's good for the bin. -
HI,
I have combed previous discussions and tried the suggestions. I am running OS X 10.9.2. My Epson software is current( I just re downloaded all the drivers etc.) I uninstalled and reinstalled my printer. I opened sharing and there is a name there. My hardware has this message if this helps:
rastertoescpII:
Path: /Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/Filter/rastertoescpII.app/Contents/ MacOS/rastertoescpII. I have turned off, unplugged, waited... nothing. I am able to do a test print and all is fine. Epson only assists via email and I have to wait 24hrs. I'm reaching out here; been banging my head against the wall since 7am today. I really need to get back to work, sigh. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
KristinI was contacted by Epson support, all resolved. There were so many steps we did to resolve this; I'm unable to remember them all to share here.

see above
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)
