3G Data not responding as it should

Hey forums, got a inquiry about my iPhone 4's data connection.
Lets say i have full bars for 3G service. I get slower internet connection than before, sometimes even not connecting and it states that "Server not found". Is it the norm to get this error? Oh not forgetting to mention i got 1 dropped call, 3 failed attempts at calling back. All happened in an open area. Just what is wrong? :o

Yes, thank you. Another thing that I want to mention is that I have ran the "Speedtest" app before (can't remember if i had updated to 4.2.1), on a 3G network, full bars, was running at 6mbps +/- before, now it is running at 3mbps+/- . This test was done at the same location, with same signal strength. This test was done simultaneously, even on different days. Results still show slower internet speed despite the strong signal. I have concluded 3 possibilities which are 1; Problem with the carrier, 2; Problem with the hardware(Antenna) 3; iOS

    HI, i have ipod touch 32gb, i have noticed that volume and power button's do not respond. What should i do?

    Try the standard fixes in squence:
    - Reset the iPod (may not work because of power button problem).
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore the iPod from backup
    - Restore the iPod to factoery defaults/new iPod
    If you still have a problem, it is likely due to a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • When I open my computer and use it for a period of time it freezes up and it say Mozilla Firefox is not responding. What should I do with this?

    This happened several times already that my computer freezes up and it says Mozilla Firefox is not responding. When this happen it takes a long time before I can use my computer, I would say one hour or sometimes it takes 2 hours. When it takes like 30 minutes of freezing up what I do is I force the computer to shut down by pressing start button.
    And Ihttps://support.mozilla.com/media/img/markup/page_link.png wait for 3 to 5 minutes than I press the start button again to open the computer. When computer open up the Toshiba starts loading up all files after that I can use the computer for a while. I don't if there's something wrong with my computer or something else. I have Window Vista home premium.
    Please help.
    Thanks

    Apple Does Not recommend that. Please Read.

    From that article
    "Portables with built-in batteries"
    Current Apple portable computer batteries are pre-calibrated and do not require the calibration procedure outlined in this article. These computers use batteries that should be replaced only by an Apple Authorized Service Provider.

    Apple recommend calibrating the battery when you buy a new Macbook and then every few months, or monthly if it used on mains all the time. This, as Apple says is to keep the battery operating at maximum efficiency. When the battery discharges and shuts the macbook down, it still has reserve power for a good number of hours. There is also a logic board battery to hold various settings.
    I rather think I will take Apples advice on using their equipment not yours, but I would be intrigued to discover what is it you know that Apple doesnt about its batteries?

  • Firefox takes 6 minutes to load and then does not respond so what should I do?

    After starting Firefox on my Mac (10.8) it takes 5 to 6 minutes to appear. A minute or so later the "Bookmarks and History system will not be functional because one of the files is being used by another application" message appears and Firefox either does not respond or responds very slowly to various mouse clicks and such. For example, I wanted to disable all plug ins and when I clicked on Tools and Addins it took three minutes for the tab to open and after 20 minutes still nothing had appeared on the tab. I've tried restarting Firefox, restarting the Mac, resetting Firefox to the default settings, starting Firefox in safe mode, renaming the places.sqlite file, uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling from a fresh download, performing a complete uninstall and reinstall in which I remove the Firefox folder from the Application Support folder after uninstalling, and relocating the plugins folder. I've tried just about everything in every Firefox support article that there is and nothing works. Any suggestions would be very helpful.Thanks.

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
    * [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx Microsoft Safety Scanner]

    * [http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ ESET Online Scanner]
    [http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

    Hello, Oliver Chu.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand that you are experiencing an issue with the performance of Safari.  I would start with clearing Safari History and Website Data.  If the issue persists, you may need to take a look at the troubleshooting steps in the second article.  
    Reset Safari
    Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    Cheers,

  • Parameter 'Enter Values' dialogue not responding.

    When trying to preview any crystal report from the CRXI designer, it prompts me for parameter values.
    When supplying the values in the 'Enter Values' dialogue, clicking on the 'OK' or 'Cancel' buttons does not respond.
    In the case of a date parameter, clicking on the datepicker icon also does not respond. It should at least bring up the datepicker control but it does nothing.
    I have uninstalled and re-installed Crystal Reports XI (Release 2 with SP4) but the problem persists.

    Thanx Jehanzeb,
    I have managed to solve the problem though.
    The 'Enter Parameter Values' dialogue is HTML renderred in IE.
    My IE security setting on our network does not allow javascript to be executed and thus the dialogue was not responding to any events.
    I managed to resolve the issue by adding "http://localhost/" to my intanet zone in IE security settings and enabling javascript for this zone.
    Kind regards.

  • Firefox keeps hanging up and freezing. I get this message. "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing--what a mess.

    No matter how many times I open and close, firefox hangs up after surfing a few pages. When I look at task master, firefox is using up hundreds of thousands of kb, causing the processor to stall at 100%. I do not have this problem when surfing with IE. I have the latest version of firefox. I never had this problem with version 5. It keeps getting worse with each "update".

    See [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]
    Obviously firefox should not hang after surfing a few pages. I have Firefox installed on an XP including firefox 6.0.2 and do not have problems.

    * [[Firefox consumes a lot of CPU resources]]
    * [[High memory usage]]
    Have a read of the above linked articles. The first thing to do is to try to get firefox to behave more normally
    #Use [[safe mode]]
    #* but do not make changes when you have the window with a list of options just click continue
    # if using safe mode does not solve the problem also
    #* make sure you use the default theme
    #* disable all pluggins
    Note by keying in ''about:memory'' into the location bar you will get a report, which includes more info as you roll the mouse pointer over items, that should help indicate where all the memory is being used.

  • Macbook Core 2 Duo Excel 2008 Not Responding

    I have a Macbook Core 2 duo with Snow Leopard. I have Microsoft Office 2008 and recently my computer is running slow, but now excel will not load at all. It shows the color wheel and then the "application does not respond". What should I do

    Thanks for all the helpful answers. I mainly use the Korg legacy collection synths, and a variety of Waves plugins, and my current macbook can run quite a few instances of the synths and plugins, so I guess based on the information given the base mac mini should be able to handle my projects ok. As has been mentioned, I guess the best thing to do is to try it.
    Thanks again,

  • ISight V.3 - user did not respond - US to UK

    Hi there, I am beset with the same problems as so many of you are it seems with ISight. I am trying to video conference with someone across the Atlantic with no joy. I use a DSL line here at my office, have bonjour as well as AIM open and can ichat fine with them and video with others in my office (at times), but not with London (I am in NY). It rings , Iaccept and then nothing, and just gently sits there and declares that I did not respond. What should I do? The person I am talking to has one of the new intel MacBook Pros.
    Please anyone? help

    hi Lemaxster,
    Welcome To The Apple Discussion Pages.
    It sounds like there is no porblem with the ports iChat needs to do Bonjour chats if that is what you are describing.
    It looks like it is the other ports the AV side needs to have open that may be causing you problems.
    Do you know if these ports are open in any modem or router ?
    5060, 5190, 5678, 16384-16403 ?
    Do you know what method of opening the ports is being used ?
    Can you get to any of the accounts in TAble 1 here
    http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/ContactTesters.html ?
    What about any of the people in Table 2 ?

  • Firefox will not respond after restarting my computer after making changes in the cookies and history settings

    I make some changes with cookies and cleared my history for today...and then restarted my computer...now firefox will not open...will not respond...should I uninstall firefox and then reinstall it?
    If I uninstall firefox will the changes I made with the cookies and my history be reversed?
    If I were to uninstall and then reinstall firefox will I loose my bookmarks if I do this? or does firefox remember them...so when I reinstall the previous bookmarks are reinstalled too?

    Does Firefox starts up when you first open it after rebooting the computer but hangs the next time you try to start it? If so, then there's a [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1005487 bug] in Firefox 29 where Firefox hangs on exit when the setting "Clear history when Firefox closes" is selected, so that you get an "already running but not responding" error the next time you ttry to start it. In that case, end the firefox.exe process in the Windows Task Manager (or reboot the computer) then reset your Firefox Privacy options and UNCHECK the option "Clear history when Firefox closes". See this article for details:
    [[Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track]]
    If that's not the problem and Firefox still not open even after rebooting the computer then try starting in Firefox Safe Mode by holding down the shift key while starting Firefox. If Firefox starts then see the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to narrow down the cause.
