What would cause the microphone in the iphone 3Gs to stop working?

Basic troubleshooting steps are restart, reset, restore. If these are tried and you still have problems then you have a hardware failure and will need to have your phone replaced by Apple.

What would cause the Messages App to only work intermittently?

The first letter typed should switch the Send button on indicating things are ok, more often than not this doesn't happen. Settings seem to be right so what else might be causing this?

I'll bet the lightbulb for execution highlighting isn't visable either is it? The problem is that someone turned off debugging for the VI in question. Debugging code does cost a little time so people who typically run their applications in the development system will sometimes turn off debugging. (Building a standalone application forces debugging off automatically).
To be able to probe your routine, right click on the vi's icon in the title bar and select "VI Properties..." and go to the "Execution" catagory and make sure the box labled "Allow Debugging" is checked.
This should put things right...

Older accessories work w/ iphone 3GS, then stop working?

So about a month ago the office moved from samsung smartphones to the iPhone 3Gs. sweet.
When I first got it, I did some testing with the existing ipod accessories I have - a sony radio/alarm clock, and the headunit adapter I have for my mazda.
The alarm clock worked fine with the exception of the "airplane mode warning" and the car adapter worked similarly but wouldn't charge. Fine with me, I'll use the classic on long trips anyway.
But about a week and a half ago, I noticed that the alarm clock had stopped working normally. It would charge but not play music, using the clock's buzzer instead of playing my wake up music.
Then today I plugged the iphone into the car for the first time in a couple weeks, and it started playing music when plugged in, but only through the phone's tinny internal speakers. Nothing I could do would route it through the car audio system.
What could cause the iphone to suddenly stop feeding line-out to accessories? Anybody seen this before?
Apologies if this has bee posted before, I did scan through a few pages of posts before posting.
Thanks.
P.S. Make itunes 9 work with XPx64. Please.

Have you tried to restore it?

What would be the iphone 6 price in oman?

What would be the iphone 6 price in oman?

No one on here will be able to tell you that...you will need to ask a carrier or dealer.
You can estimate by taking the announced non-contract price, $649 (US) and convert the currency...that would be the minimum not allowing for any other markups that may be added by dealers.

What would cause the original I Pad shut itself off while playing games or online? it is not a battery issue or time issue. When I turn it back on it goes to were I was when I was online ,but have to start games over.

The original iPad has a slow processor and only 256 MB of memory so it often runs into low-memory failures.
Double click the home button and dismiss all of the recents - I do that weekly.
Then reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider - I also do that weekly.
Both seem to help to reduce the low-memory faults that occur.

What would cause the printer to only print text in microsoft word but no images

i have a hp deskjet D1320 printer, windows xp operating system, and i have always printed greeting cards from microsoft word by inserting an image and then printing it with the printer set to duplex(2sided)printing option, so after you print the image you flip the card around and then print the text on the inside of the card. now the printer does not print any images when i insert the image and then click print it just runs 1 piece of paper through the printer and stops but it will still print text just fine, does anyone know what would cause this type of an issue?
thank-you,
hwnugent

Hi there hwnugent,
Try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:

It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on. Let us know the results.
Best of Luck!

What would cause the flash not to fire?

What would cause 580ex not to fire?

Can you be more specific?
When you power it on, you should get a red Pilot light when it's ready to fire. If you press the light (it's a button) it should test-fire the flash. That will confirm the flash actually works.
You can tell the camera to disable the flash... this is useful when you just want to use the flash's focus-assist beam to help the camera lock focus, but do not actually want the flash to fire. Check your camera menu... probably under "External Speedlite Control" -> "Flash Firing" and check that it is set to "Enable".

I have a macbook pro 10.6.8 system. My hard drive was replaced under warranty. Since then, my computer runs hot. The original hard drive never ran hot. What would cause the new hard drive to run hot?

I have a 2011 MacBook Pro, OS X 10.6.8, 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7, 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3. This is my first computer so don't know anything about trouble shooting. A week before the warranty expired, I took my computer to Apple to be checked. I was told that my hard drive was bad and they replaced the hard drive. Since then, my computer runs hot most of the time and the fan is constantly coming on, which is good My computer rarely ran hot with the original hard drive. What would be causing this?

racergirl,
have you tried resetting your MacBook Pro’s System Management Controller, to see if that makes a difference with the heat?

Have you dropped the iPad?
Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

What would cause the speaker in my iPad (III) to stop working suddenly?

I was listening to a podcast yesterday when the sound got staticky and the speaker stopped working. I tried plugging in external speakers and those do work, but that is the headphone jack . If I try to play a game with sound, it comes on very low - no matter how high up I have the sound- and then fades after about 30 seconds. The iPad not quite four months old and is in an OtterBox case, and has been since day one. Any ideas on what could have happened and if this may be something covered by the warranty? Thanks!

What encryption does the iphone 3gs/3g support?

There no mention of what WLAN encryption is supported.
Ie: WPA, WPA2, 64 bit WEP, or 128 bit WEP.
What does the iphone support?

It definitely supports WPA2, because that's what I use on my home wi-fi network, and I'm not interested in anything less secure.

My app caused the lock button to stop working

Hello everyone, i have developed a universal app for Windows and Windows Phone and after releasing it to the public it caused the lock button on the phone to stop functioning just like what happened with 'The Chive' app. Read here:
Power button issues caused by The Chive app
This happens right after you run the app or sometimes after a couple of times. When it happens you have to do a soft-rest to fix it and sometimes it might not get fixed and you will have to do a full hard reset. Also noticed that when this bug happens it
causes the Data Sense app to stop working making it crash after starting it and also its button in the settings menu doesn't show the second gray line. It is like that app is not being initialized.
I have tested this on my Lumia 925 and a couple of other Lumia 520s. The 925 is running the latest Windows Phone 8.1 Update DP and the lumia 520 are running official Windows Phone 8.1 (Not the update), Also all phones are on Cyan release of the firmware.
I am still testing this issue but i believe it is caused by the 'Ad mediator' control released by Microsoft because The Chive app is a universal app like mine and it is also displaying ads, however i dont know what control they are using.
Please help me with issue. Any information you might have could be very helpful. Also i am willing to share parts of the code to help solve this.
The link to my app in the US store is:
http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=a0b4586e-8893-488d-9dac-77846980d1ec
Thank you all in advance.
***UPDATE***
I have removed the ad mediator from my app and replaced it with the Microsoft Ad control and the Ad Duplex ad control but the same problem still happened. Also i installed the updated version on a clean Windows Phone Device (Windows Phone 8.1 Update with only
stock settings and programs) and the same bug happened. I feel that this is more of an OS bug.
It is a shame that no Microsoft Employee replied to this thread to maybe clarify what is going on and what we (the developers) can do if we face such issue.
BTW while searching the internet i found other cases for this bug, it happened with The Chive app and also an app called GOLOTTO that was pulled from the store because of this bug.
Please, any information no matter how little it is might actually help solving this weird bug.
Thank you all.

Hi Franklin, Thank you for trying to help me, really appreciate it.
When the app was in private beta, it never caused this issue, however when i made the app public something happened and started causing this issue on all the devices i have. Please note that the final BETA package was exactly the same as the published one
with no changes.
Now the trial you did (thank you for that) is the same i have done after removing the ad mediator control and replacing it with the MS ad control and AdDuplex control (with behind code to switch between them). When i tried that package before releasing it,
it caused the problem only after i switched off and on the phone (with the app still installed).
BTW, for some reason my app is hidden in the store from the people who never downloaded my app although i can still find it in my phone and i never clicked on the hide from store option in the dev portal.
Thank you for your interest in my problem and hope to hear from you soon.
Rafael
Hi RafaelY,
Sorry for the delay, I've tried to upgrade the Windows phone device to the latest version, but still can't reproduce this issue.
If it's urgent, I would suggest you opening a ticket:
1.)    Visit the URL: http://aka.ms/storesupport with your developer account.
2.)    Towards the bottom of the page, there is a link that says “…contact us immediately.”
3.)    Click that link and then it will ask you to choose the support type. To reach the correct support team choose the following:
a. Problem Type: “Technical support for Windows Store and Windows Phone app development”
b. Category: “appropriate category"
c. Once you do that, there should be an option that lets you “Request a call”/ “Start Email”
We are trying to better understand customer views on social support experience, so your participation in this interview project would be greatly appreciated if you have time. Thanks for helping make community forums a great place.

My keyboard shortcuts on the iPhone 5 have stopped working

My keyboard shortcut have stopped working. If I restart my phone they start working but then will stop. Any ideas?

Searching around suggests this is a common problem. I've got the same issue. I just read that shortcuts are now sync'ed across other iOS devices. It probably has something to do with that. Sorry this isn't a helpful reply! But just wanted to chime in and indicate a lot of us have this problem.

My iPhone 3GS just stopped working this morning. It tells me activation is required and that I need to plug it into itunes. When I try to plug it into itunes it doesn't register that I have anything plugged in.

My phone stopped working this morning, it tells me that activation is requires and that I need to plug it into ITunes. However when I try to plug it into my computer nothing happens, it will only show the apple symbol when I plug it into an outlet. Does anyone know what I can do to get it to plug into itunes or activate it again?

Please plug the iPhone with the original doch-connector & USB cable into a USB plug in the computer (directly into the computer) and restart iTunes. It should register. Please do not stop the registration!!! You may need to press power on iPhone.
Is the iPhone jailbroken?

IPhone 3GS suddenly stopped working with wifi in only one location

This is the situation. I have an iPhone 3GS and it the wifi suddenly stopped working at my house (just with the iPhone).
I have an Airport express (latest generation) and a time capsule (1st generation). All of my devices (except a PC laptop which isn't much of an issue, and the iPhone) cannot connect to it. The devices I have are as follows: Apple TV, iPod Touch, iPad 2, the "new" iPad, a macintosh computer.
However, when I move the Airport express to my work location, and plug it into the ethernet there, the iPhone works totally fine. It seems like the issue is just at my house. The Time Capsule works intermittently sometimes; random devices cannot connect to the network sometimes. The airport express seemed to fix this problem. I have read that this problem is related to the operating system "Lion" but the network was working fine for months and months after I have upgraded to lion. Sometimes both devices cease to work, and there is no internet to any devices in my home.
The network is password protected, so that removes the possibility of neighbors connecting to the network. The name of the network contains spaces and "symbols" which I have heard is an issue for PC's trying to connect to networks. Both my home and my workplace are on the same internet provider.
My questions are:
Why does the airport express work with the iPhone at my workplace and not at my house?
How many devices can a 1st gen Time Capsule handle at once?
If I buy an airport extreme, will it fix this issue?
How can I fix this?
I have restarted the device several times (both the iPhone and Time Capsule) and it still didn't fix anything.

Using the delete all content and settings option is not restoring the iPhone. Using the delete all content and settings option does exactly that - all content and settings are securely deleted except for the firmware, which is not a restore.
If you do this followed by re-installing an app via the iTunes sync process, the app settings and any data created and stored by the app will be lost. 3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app is not stored with the app on your iPhone and is not stored with the app or synced with the app in your iTunes library on your computer.
3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app is stored separately from the app on your iPhone and is included with your iPhone's backup which is updated as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
Restoring an iPhone with iTunes completely erases the iPhone first followed by the firmware being re-installed. After the firmware is re-installed, you are prompted to restore your iPhone from your iPhone's backup, which is the default selection. The other selection available is as a new iPhone. After either one, this must be followed by a sync with iTunes. If you restore from your iPhone's backup followed by re-installing an app that stores data you need to access, the data will be restored with the app. If you restore as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup followed by re-installng an app, the app settings and any data created and stored by the app will not be restored with the app since you didn't restore your iPhone from your iPhone's backup where this data is stored.
If you restore your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup with no change, you can follow this by restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup to recover the 3rd party app settings and the data created and stored by the app along with all other data included with your iPhone's backup.
