3gs touchscreen issues after 4.0.1 update

I recently updated from 3.1.3 to 4.0.1. It all went great, and I set it up as a new iPhone instead of a restoring. All is great, fresh clean iphone installation, right? No. Now my touchscreen doesnt work along the bottom, and is off-calibrated. For instance, if i hit the letter G on the keyboard, it registers as D. If i hit the letter A, it registers as L (weird right)? Im out of warranty, can apple fix this?

It's hard to tell if its a hardware or software related issue that you have run into.
First thing I would be doing is a fresh build of the phone again to make sure something didn't happen during the update process of loading the new operating system.
I would delete the .ipsw file that is on the computer (this is the package you downloaded from iTunes with the update) and then once deleted, turn on iTunes, plug in the phone and then sync everything that you want after the restore. Exactly like you did last time.
Once you have done that, hit Check for Updates in iTunes, this will then be forced to re-download a new copy of 4.0.2. (just in case the original was corrupt. Longshot but just to be sure)
I prefer the option of download only, rather that download and restore.
Once downloaded, restore to 'new' again and see if the problem is resolved.
If this doesn't fix it, I think it is an issue for Apple to solve as it's probably a hardware failure.
Location:
Mac: ~/UserName/library/itunes/iPhone Software Updates
Windows should be C:\Document & Settings\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates
Remember, if using Windows to turn off Antivirus and Firewall before you try to update the phone
Hope this helps.

Iphone 5 issues after IOS 8.2 update: my husband's phone and my phone get the same phone calls ONLY when we are home. Any suggestions on where to look to fix this?

Iphone 5 issues after IOS 8.2 update: all the iphones in the house receive the same phone calls ONLY while we are at home. Any ideas on how to fix this?

That is a new "feature" described in Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity
You can turn it off by going to Settings > FaceTime and changing "iPhone Cellular Calls" to off

Is there any fix for the bluetooth connectivity issue after most recent OS update?

Seems to be a common problem particularly with bluetooth headseat connectivity. Any ideas?

There is no bluetooth connectivity issue after the recent OS update. There may be a problem with your phone, which may or may not be related to the update. A "common problem" looks like this in the forums:
I haven't seen any threads on BlueTooth with over 1.4 million views and over 12,000 replies, or even any vaguely close. For any problem that someone has there is bound to be someone else amoung 150 million users who have it. That doesn't make it a "common problem."
If you tell us what the problem is specifically and what you have done so far to try to resolve it someone can probably help you.

IPad2 Issues after iOS 8.1 update

iPad2 64g wifi + cellular -   very slow and non-responsive since iOS 8.1 update. nonstandard Apps seem to be working fine.. it’s the standard item like photos and safari that don't respond.
photos - (which I use daily to show clients examples) will freeze and kick me out back to the home page when trying to do anything from open a photo for viewing to trying to delete a photo. Edit.. forget it.   better off using an alternate app to edit a photo as it locks up and crashes every time.   I really need to be able to view the photos on my iPad2
safari -   good luck using any hyper link…. It doesn’t respond.   Even at Apple’s website.   Sometimes it crashes but most of the time it just ignores me like I haven’t touched the screen
Overall - the touch screen is glitchy since the iOS 8.1 update. It was slow after the iOS 8.0 update but has become almost unusable after the 8.1 update.
I cannot afford to purchase a new iPad. And I really need to find a way to make this one work.
I did read about how to restore to an older iOS version.   The only problems are all of my laptop is Windows based and the instructions assumed you had a Mac.   I did a backup to iTunes prior to the 8.0 update but I have also done backups since.   So I am not sure I have a “clean” iOS 7 backup.
Any ideas would be appreciated   Thank you in advance for your help

For the touch issues in Safari, does scrolling or zooming the page before you try to tap a link make it work again? I've read a few posts that this may be a workaround for that issue.

Display Issue after 10.9.2 update

After updating my Macbook Pro with Retina to 10.9.2 -- My display flickers for a second after sleep and or blank screen and then goes back to normal. Has anyone else been having display issues after updating?

Yes similar problem here: I have a MacBook Pro, 15 inch Retina, Mid 2012, and when I connect a secondary display via HDMI (and also HDMI-to-Thunderbolt) then the external monitor becomes the main display.
I have not figured out on how to switch back to former settings. My guess: it's a bug. A quick search confirms that many others have secondary display issues since 10.9.2
(Steve would have fired those lazy punks, who failed to do sincere testing before release …)

How i get by with the sleep, pause issue after 1.0.2 update

ok. i'm sure you guys are aware of the ipod sleeping/pausing issue after updating your ipod to 1.0.2. my ipod will pause whenever it is in the jensen dock station and the green battery indicator shows up. whenever i use the dock or remote to unpause the song, a few seconds later, it pauses again. so instead of using the dock or remote to play, unpause, whatever, i connect the ipod to the dock and use the wheel to navigate and 'only' use the play/pause button on the ipod itself to kick off the playing of music. if i go back to the remote, the ipod pauses. if i only use the menu and play/pause button on the wheel, my songs do not pause. it sure was nice using the remote before 1.0.2. i mean, it did come with the dock for my remoting pleasure but alas, i shall wait on the next update. hope this helps someone.

I will have to try that... I took my iPod to work today and plugged it into my JBL docking station and it was skipping. I did notice it seemed to go to sleep more often when I used the remote... There's a whole other forum on this maybe you could check out too. But it's really annoying and I hope Apple comes out with a fix soon! I will definitely try to use the iPod wheel tomorrow and not the remote.

Massive battery drain issues after the latest software update - phone hot

After the latest software update (to the NI2 version) I have massive battery drain issues. The phone also stays hot. Even when I don't actively use the phone it seems to stay "awake" according to the stats. When I disable all data (Wifi and/or 3G/4G) it's perfectly fine. Does anyone else experience the same issues or has recommendations?

Is the device trying to sync all your photos with the cloud?
This is what I would do.
Back up your photos and music onto a personal computer. Copy down important settings like for your email, and contacts you can't risk losing.. even icon placement of important apps. Diagram it out.
Then perform a Factory reset on the device. Alternatively you might find the procedure for wiping the low level cache of the device posted in other posts on the site. That might fix the problem and avoid you losing settings and content on your device.
Extremely bizarre behavior post updates are usually associated with low level cache issues that cause the OS to behave poorly. Some people have reported their phones running hot and that could mean the radio is on constantly attempting to back stuff up to the cloud our restore stuff.
Good luck.

Satellite 100-192: Issues after the latest MS update...

Satellite 100-192.
After the latest MS update I first had the problem with the Realtek sound card driver. I solved it by applying the patch MS provided.
Now the problem is that the disc cleanup utility does not launch. Anybody any idea?

I just found out that my disc cleanup utility would not work because of a free program called Photo Toolkit. Although it is a nice little program to quickly edit photos, apparently it causes such problems when it is loaded.

Touchscreen issues after Amber update

I have never had an issue with my Lumia 928 before the Amber update. Now my screen goes unresponsive about every other day, and I have to do a reset. Is anyone else having this issue?

Hi gymcoach10,
Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions!
Sorry to hear that. You said that you've done a reset, may we know how did you do it? Did you press and hold the volume down and the power keys until the phone vibrates? Or did you reset it by going to Settings>about>Reset?

Even more issues after installing 3.1 update. What to do.

HI there,
It would seem that since I have installed 3.1 my iPhone 3Gs 32GB white is acting very strange. Heres my story...
I have noticed the following behavior since the install. Sound randomly not working. Home button randomly not working.
Have done a Restore
Have removed all my applications thinking maybe an app was not compatible with the 3.1 update and therefore was causing the problems.
... still noticed home button issue even after removing all apps.
... sound issue happened once but seems OK now.
I have read other postings about these two issues. It would seem others are experiencing the same problems. However, I found no fix for it. That is why I thought it might be an app interfering.
As I said it still happens at random times but lately it has been working fine so I am wondering if it was an app I had installed.
Just to add some history, this is my 2nd iphone as I had a problem with my 1st one. The one I am currently using was sent to me by my Wireless provider and it was refurbished. So I am wondering if the randomness of the home button was the reason this iphone was returned in the first place. And the problem is reoccurring. Or is it just consequence that it is happening now after I installed the 3.1 update.
I have made an appointment at my local Apple store(genius bar) for them to have a look at it, however my luck is when I go the phone will be working fine and they will not do anything. The phone is not three months old so I fall within the 90 days warranty and I just purchased the AppleCare for iPhone as backup. I am hoping I will get a new iPhone to replace this one because it was refurbished.
So my question is
Do you think it was an application that was causing the issue or could it be a hardware problem with the button? Is it known fact that some iPhone apps are not 3.1 compatible and can cause issues?
Thanks and I look forward to your replies.
...Bruce

Possible but the Apple store visit is the right way to go.

C55T-A Touchscreen dead after Windows 8.1 Update

After updating my C55T-A5296 to Win8.1, I've lost all touchscreen functionality.
Order of operations:
1. Turn laptop on
2. Run Service Station, run all updates. This included an update to BIOS v1.20
3. Run Windows Update - Install all updatres.
4. Download Windows 8.1 from Windows Store, and install.
5. Reboot several times during install.
6. Perform initial setup in 8.1, to include Wireless config, user info, etc.
7. Run Service Station again - No new updates available.
8. No touchscreen.
9. Spend two weeks on the Internet determining that other Toshiba laptops have the same issue, and THEY got a new BIOS update to fix it.
10. Give up and call support.
11. Swear to never buy a Toshiba product again.
On the advice of support rep, I've wiped the machine back to Windows 8, and touchscreen funtionality was restored. I then went through the process of re-updating to Win 8.1, and the problem repeats.
In DevManager, I see "unknown usb device (device descriptor request failed)" I am unable to locate any TouchScreen device drivers for my model.
Anyone have any advice?

Hi CrunchyFerrett,
I have this problem before and what I ran system recovery [click HERE] as my first try. But the outcome is still the same. So I decided to send my laptop to depot to fix. If you think your laptop is in warranty contact Toshiba warranty # 1800.457.7777 business time 8am-2am the following day EST.
Hope this works for you!
BTW IF YOU THINK IT HELPS ALOT. PLEASE DONT BE AFRAID TO CLICK KUDOS star ^_^

Wired keyboard issue after 10.9.4 update

Hello all,
I disconnected the Apple USB keyboard (A1243) from my MacBook Pro last night, and I started seeing an issue where my Mac would no longer power/recognize my keyboard once I reconnected it. I tried doing the steps to reset both SMC and PRAM, but still my keyboard would not work when connected. I decided to test the USB port so I connected my iPhone to it, and it connected and synched just fine. I also tested a USB drive on it and was able to copy files off it. I also took my Mac keyboard and connected it to a Windows 7 laptop, and it worked just fine. After looking at the console logs, I noticed this error showing up:
7/4/14 8:24:40.000 PM kernel[0]: USBF: 18393.519 AppleUSBHubPort::FatalError - Port 2 of Hub at 0x14200000 reported error 0xe00002c0 while doing setting port power
This shows each time I connect my Apple keyboard into the USB ports on my machine. I decided to try to connect the keyboard one last time just now and it finally worked. I was accidentally pressing the keys down as I connected it, and I started hearing beeping sounds from my speakers. A few seconds after that, the keyboard started typing and working correctly. I tried the same steps on the original USB port I had it on before (left side), but it's still not working at all. I suspect that this has to do with the new update I just installed as I did not have any issues before.
Many thanks,
Adrian C.

To confirm what John Galt is reporting, I just tested printing this web page from OS X 10.9.4 to an old HP LaserJet here. Worked correctly.
In addition to what John Galt is asking, which model(s) of HP printers are involved here?
If you're getting error dialogs or messages in the console log (available via Console.app), please post those.
If you're working with an IT organization and particularly with managed network switches, have you checked with IT about issues there?
If there are any antivirus or antimalware tools in use here, remove that miasma from at least one test system, and test printing again.

Sound issue after )X10.5.6 update

after updating to 5.5 i get one loud pop/crack sound when starting or wakeing my mac up from sleep.
I am useing it with harman/kardon sound stick speakers
Anyone had simler issues or no how to resolve this?
Thank you
Michael

Hello Anton. Have you had any luck with your problem?
I have recently noticed that my Samson CO1U USB Microphone is now very quiet and muffled when connected to my MacBook and yet it still works fine on a Windows XP machine. As it used to be fine with my Mac before the 10.5.6 update I can only assume that this latest update has caused a big problem with some USB devices. Like you, I can't get any answers.
I am thinking of rolling back to 10.5.4 to see if I can use my Microphone again.

Macbook pro superdrive issues after 2.1 firmware update

i have the 07 aluminum body macbook pro (non inibody) and after updating to snow leopard the drive started only reading certain disc and cds and spitting others back out. this is bogus because apple does not want to take responsibility in messing up 1000"s of drives they need to fix this issue or replace every drive they messed up with this update.

Wow! You have thousands of drives, all ruined by Snow Leopard?
Or are you just assuming that because you have a problem, everybody else has it too?

Managed Account permissions issues after all third party updates

I run a lab with 34 student accounts that are "Managed" using 10.5.7. I have given students permission to use specific software and all aspects of the software in Accounts/Parental Controls. When I update Microsoft Office or Adobe CS4, I have to go into every single student account and into each individual program to "always allow" which is about 10 programs for each machine. Of coarse all the checkmarks in the parental controls are already checked off for the student account when I check under parental controls?
Anybody having this issue. This happens on both Intel and PowerPc's.
This happens on fresh installs of Leopard to disks that have been zeroed out, on updates from Tiger and on CC cloned machines.
I have of coarse repaired all permissions before and after the updates.
It is extrememely laborious to have to do this after small incremental updates to third party software.
Actually, I've had to do it with Safari as well. It may not just be a third party issue.
One things for certain. It is ****.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Is DW installed on a server or is it installed on a user's desktop? If it is installed on a server then it won't install properly because it is not designed to be run from a server because of licensing issues. Adobe can't allow you to use one user license and then installing on a server and so used by 100 other users.When you reply please also state your operating system.
