Acts like it is making a call.

Does anyone have this weird thing happen with their iPhone. Sometimes when I access the phone area, the iphone acts like it is about to make a call then it ends the call immediately. Its so fast that I dont even get to see if it is selecting someone to call or not. You get to see it for a split second then you see the end button.

I have seen this happen a few times also. If memory serves me right, it tends to happen after I answer a call when the phone has been off. Then the phone turns off again after I end the call. Then if I wake up the phone and go to the phone section, that little blip appears.

Try a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release then wait for the phone to boot back up.
then try again.

My iphone 4S has problem in making and receiving the calls. While making the call , call fails and netwrok disappears. Like wise no voice is heard for incoming calls. This happened after return from the overseas travel.

I'm having an unusual problem with my iphone 4S. When I'm making a call, it suddenly sounds like my call has been invaded by aliens! Why is it doing this? I'm also having problems sending texts. Sometimes it sends sometimes it doesn't.

Could be an issue with your Carrier and/or location...
The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart.. Reset.. Restore from Backup... Restore as New...
Try a Reset...
Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release the buttons...

TS3367 I have 3 apple systems.. Mac, Macpro, and IPad.. I have a seperate e-mail account set up of each but facetime is still acting like it is calling itself on the Mac.. do you have to have seperate appleID on each system?

I have 3 apple systems.. Mac, Macpro, and IPad.. I have a seperate e-mail account set up of each but facetime is still acting like it is calling itself on the Mac.. do you have to have seperate appleID on each system?

You don't need 3 separate Apple IDs, but you do need to set up each device with a unique email address for Facetime to communicate between the devices. You can go to Settings > Facetime and add another email address for each device.

My 5 is making a feed back like noise when I make calls and the person I'm calling can hear the noise.

On IPhone 5S, when making cell calls, it connects to FaceTime.

On IPhone 5S, IOS 7.1.2, when making cell calls, it connects to FaceTime.

Hey there siteshop,
It sounds like you are still hearing the phone line ringing even after the person you call answers the line. I would try the troubleshooting outlined in this article:
iPhone: Troubleshooting issues making or receiving calls
https://support.apple.com/kb/TS3406
Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
Ensure that your software is up to date:
Check for a carrier settings update.
Check for an iOS software update.
Note: Some updates may require a Wi-Fi connection.
If the iPhone has a SIM card, reseat the SIM card.
If the iPhone 4 or iPhone 4s is on the Verizon network, dial *228 from the iPhone and select option 2 to update the Preferred Roaming List (PRL). The PRL determines the cellular towers the phone uses for cellular service, selecting those with the best signal strength.
Reset the network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Try to make or receive calls in another location.
Attempt to isolate to one network band:
If you're having the issue on LTE, disable LTE, if possible, and try again.
If you're having the issue on 3G/4G, disable 3G/4G, if possible, and try again.
Contact the carrier to check the following:
Your account is properly configured to use the specific iPhone that has the issue.
There are no localized service outages.
Your account doesn't have a billing-related block.
Your calls don't have errors on the carrier system.
Restore the phone as new.
If the above steps don't resolve the issue, go to an Apple Retail Store, carrier, Apple Authorized Reseller, or contact AppleCare to send the phone in for service.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

IPhone 4 updated from 6.0 to 7.1.2 and now the picture no longer appears when receiving or making phone calls. How do I fix this?

I updated the software for my iPhone 4 from 6.0 to 7.1.2 and now pictures (contact picture/picture ID's) no longer appear (take up the entire screen) when receiving or making phone calls. They only show in a small circle which is not convenient at all. How do I fix this, please?

You are welcome. I have seen numerous posts on this subject, so I suspect you are correct. It doesn't seem like a welcome change. You can send feedback to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

CS2 uninstall, mac desktop screen acting like photoshop image

Recently my creative suite on my mac stopped updating showing an error, so each time now when updates arrive I cannot update. Now my 20" intel macs desktop image acts like a photoshop image?
The desktop starts up and then expands beyond the screen, by nearly 2", when the cursor is moved accross the screen the desktop image moves too, it is making its way to see the unseen edge which appears as cursor moves towards that edge, (eg from centre move cursor to right screen image moves left). This is quite a sea-sick effect. Also if you click and drag on the desktop it forms a box, like the one in photoshop. Something seems corrupted. I want to uninstall the creative suite then reinstall (this should help the updates) but I do not know if the screen on my mac will correct.
I looked up how to uninstall and the first thing is to double click on the Activity Monitor in Utilities and select AHCRemind.
I double click on the Activity Monitor and the window I get up does not show AHCRemind? I cannot proceed. Can anyone help, has anyone had the same problem with the desktop?

I have managed to cure the screen moving but I still need to uninstall CS2 (creative suite 2) and reinstall. I have an intel mac 10.4 os running tiger. As I said before I cannot find the 1st step on the instruction, perhaps the instruction is pre tiger, or Leopard system? Please help.

Why is my backlight display lit for only 5 seconds while making a call (Brightside phone)

When I go to settings, I see that it is set for 2 minutes and indeed it does stay lit for that amount of time if I am not making a call, but as soon as I dial a phone number and especially when I get into an automated menu system where I need to press 1 to get to a different menu and then other numbers to finally get to talk to someone, the display goes black. I have tried swiping the screen which does not help. The only thing that I can do is press the curly arrow that points to the left to have the display light come back on for another 4 seconds, then press the button called keypad and hurry and press a number to continue with the menu system.
I talked with Verizon and was told can do a complete reset, but I don't want to lose my contacts. I went to backup assistant online but keep getting the arrows that go around and around forever and won't let me see if they are backed up. I want to view my contacts online and I want to print them. What's wrong with that site?
I will say this. Do not buy the Brightside phone. It is not a smart phone. It's a touch phone and when you touch anything, things come on like the camera or makes calls to my favorite contacts. sheesh! I can't wait until our contract with Verizon is over with.

I just bought the phone yesterday and have noticed the same issue. The verizon guy i just spoke to said that needed to be fixed, so he transferred me to Samsung tech support. I'm waiting for them to pick up . . .
Okay, spoke to a very nice person who concluded that this was not an option that could be adjusted. The light apparently stays on for about 6 secs.
I was hoping it could be changed, so that's disappointing, but the reason it goes dark makes a lot of sense: it keeps you from hitting buttons accidentally while you're on the phone, so you can hold the phone in your hand, to your ear, etc. without worrying about activating something unintentionally. Also saves battery.
Hope this was helpful.

The Pandora APP is installed on my iPhone5 & works fine except when I am in my new car that also has a Pandora APP. The car doesn't seem to recognize the phone so doesn't connect. My iPhone will act like it is playing Pandora as usual but there is no sound at all when I am in the car. What do I need to do?

Hello Mogulman46,
So what that means is when you have Do Not Disturb turned on, you may have an alert depending on the setting and how you are using your iPhone. So if it is set to Always, then that means that no matter what, your iPhone will not be notified. If it set to Only while the iPhone is locked, then that means that you will not get notification when your iPhone is locked but you will get notifications if your iPhone is being used. Also keep in mind the settings All Calls From can be set to certain contacts like Favorites, Everyone or no one. If you are using Do Not Disturb and you do not need it, then turn it off.
Use Do Not Disturb on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

TS4185 Just downloaded FACETIME on my 4yr. olf Imac running Snow Leopard. When making a call to my friend's Imac all works correctly going both ways. When my wife calls me via Facetime from her Ipad, I cannot click on "accept"- not there?

Just downloaded FACETIME on my 4yr. olf Imac running Snow Leopard. When making a call to my friend's Imac all works correctly going both ways. When my wife calls me via Facetime from her Ipad, I cannot click on "accept"- not there? When called by the Imac (newest), the "accept" or "reject" radio button appears for me to click and connect. On my wife's Ipad the two radio buttons always appear when a call actiivates Facetime and comes on?
There is nothing I can find in "Preferences" in Facetime to turn that on or off. I suspect it has to do with having a more current operating system; that the "controls" are in the operating system? [I'm guessing] It's frustrating getting Facebook calls from several friends on Ipads! Any ideas...VFP

I suspect it has to do with not having a more current operating system
Exactly, what Apple is doing is leveraging new features only on newer OS X versions to force you to upgrade OS X to 10.7 or later.
What they don't tell you is 10.7 or later will NOT run your PowerPC based software, some of it you can't get Intel versions like for perfectly working printers, scanners and games etc. So it can be a very expensive OS X upgrade to 10.7 or later with third party software.
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also they don't tell you is the risk in bricking your machine if the update goes badly, so you have to have AppleCare in case that occurs so it's on them to fix it. Else your paying money to replace the logicboard or buying a new machine prematurely.
A four year old machine can't have AppleCare, it's only good for 3 years from date of purchase new.
Your machine came with a boot hard drive, it's usually got about 4-5 years of life on it, then it needs to be replaced.
Also they don't tell you the newer OS X version has more abilities and features that causes your machine to slow down in performance, especially on older machines.
Also they implement new, idotic and extremely fustrating new user interface features in a arbitrary "you take it or leave it" manner with little or no fall back method.
So upgrading OS X is a gamble on older machines that otherwise would likely work perfectly fine for the next 5 years if one didn't need to have to mess with it.
Since Snow Leopard has slightly over 25% OS X version market share, your still good for security updates etc for the next few years if you just want to stay where your at and be happy.
OS X 10.4/10.5 need to upgrade, 10.6.8 ok still
The Lions are, well, not so welcome due to Scott Forstall retard UI issues, OS X Mavericks 10.9 is likely going to fix things a bit better.
But basically what is occuring is Apple is trying to force a faster hardware upgrade cycle with the more expensive products by leveraging features on the smaller devices that expire sooner.
Apple is a hardware company that leverages whatever it can to get you to buy more hardware, it's why they are as rich as they are.

Can I get Siri to ask for confirmation, before making a call to someone?

Is it possible to get Siri to ask for confirmation before making a call, or delete the option completely of making a call with Siri, as I am right now avoiding using Siri completely, because it keeps calling up the wrong people, often making accidental transatlantic calls. Even when I am not even trying to make a call of any kind.

No. I got no answers. i have just stopped using a headset where I accidentally activated Siri often.
I just tested Siri again to see if the updates have helped, and with in 3 tests, it had made an transatlantic call while I was trying to do an email, so I guess not. If Apple could at least just program into it, that Siri should ask for confirmation, something like "Do you want me to call Andrew?

Ipod acts like battery's completely drained, but won't accept charge

Ok so, I've had my iPod nano for over five months now. I got it for Christmas 2008. The unit is telling me two different things: when its plugged into anything, it says the battery's fully charged, but when I unplug it, it says "battery low, connect to power source'. So basically my ipod's acting like the battery's completely drained, and when I try to charge it, it won't accept the charge, telling me its full up.
I've been trying everything I can think of to alleviate this problem. I even restored my ipod completely, and put all my music etc. back on. It didn't work.
So I'm thinking that maybe this is an internal problem... something with the battery.

Hi Wafflemonster,
Have you used your iPod with any 3rd-party accessories, like a car charger or dock?
Try resetting the iPod by toggling the Hold switch and then holding the Play/Pause and Menu buttons until you see the Apple logo, as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320
If the issue persists, try restoring the iPod from iTunes as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1339
If restoring the iPod does not resolve the issue, the iPod may need hardware repair. Make a reservation to have a Genius take a look at it or call AppleCare.

Problem with audio while making a call

I have a model 9810,
I can hear no audio while making a call at all, however, while making the call if I press the speaker tab I can hear (as like a hands free made)
I do not use a head set or in car kit, I just use it as a handset.
All other audio is OK, I can hear the alerts as a call or text comes in, but as soon as I answer the call and place it near my ear I hear nothing
Can someone please help
Thank you

I recommend that you attempt to boot into Safe Mode:
KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
It may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When successfully into Safe Mode, see what happens.
If the behavior ceases, then think carefully...what happened just before this behavior started? A new app? An update? A Theme? Something else? Think carefully as the smallest change could be causal...and attempt to undo whatever that was.
But if the behavior continues in Safe Mode, then you may need to consider more drastic actions -- WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload, and the "Bare Bones" OS Reload Process. To prepare, you should be sure that you have a full backup to your PC...please review the Backup link in my auto-sig on this post for instructions.
