After 10.6.3 update: Bluetooth won't turn on

After installing the incremental update, Bluetooth will not reactivate after sleep. The Bluetooth icon is in the menu bar, but Bluetooth is 'off' and wasn't before sleep. If I try to turn it on, it won't come on. Works fine if I do a full restart.

Since the latest updates I have exactly the same.
Bluetooth Mighty mouse works fine. Logout and put the iMac to sleep.
Pressing the mouse doesn't do anything at all.
To wake the mouse I have to press the keyboard at which point the screen displays an outline of the mouse with connection lost.
20 - 30 seconds later connectivity is fine and I can log in again.
Very frustrating.
I booted from a 10.5.x on an external disk and the wake from sleep functionality works fine.

1st Gen - 2.2.1 update Bluetooth won't turn on

Tried reset / power cycled. Just spins. Doesn't even turn the radio on.
Now what?

How do you know it's not working? Seeing the spinning progress wheel in the Bluetooth settings sections is like seeing the light on in your fridge - when the door's open, it's always on. Even with my Apple headset already paired, I see the spinning wheel.

Bluetooth won't turn on on my new c5

I received a c5 phone this august but the bluetooth won't turn on. I already updated the software, tried the factory settings but it's no use. Could this be a factory defect? I am planning to exchange it back to Nokia but i don't have the receipt anymore. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

What happens when you try to switch Bluetooth on? Is there an error message?

Phone kept getting hotter and hotter after update - now won't turn on

Well, seems that my phone crapped out. The mandatory system update that seemed to take forever to load and then install. Afterward, the battery would get the life sucked out of it in minutes while getting hotter and hotter to the touch. Now it won't even turn on. Grrrrrrrrrrr
Has anyone else experienced this? Any suggestions on fix?

@gaieegail,
Believe me when I say I feel your pain! I have the same phone and had the same issues after the update. But don't worry because I'm here to help!
What worked for me was performing a hard reset http://bit.ly/nExWmP after the update. I know it can be inconvenient but necessary after such a big update like the ICS.
I noitced a big difference after the hard reset and I'm confident you will too. Just make sure you back up your phone before the hard reset so you don't lose anything you need.
Keep me posted if you need further assistance.

AT&T Unlocked Blackberry Classic Bluetooth Won't Turn On

I just purchased an AT&T branded Blackberry Classic and regretfully I can't get Bluetooth to activate. I've tried EVERY method on the boards and no such luck. Yes, I've restored back to factory 2 times now and still, Bluetooth won't activate. Any other ideas or thoughts?

Thank you. Given that, I next recommend you reload your OS, but via the unofficial methods, which are cleaner, and allow you to choose an OS version that perhaps your carrier (or whoever it is controlling your offers) has been slow to approve:http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-10-OS-Device-Software/Upgrading-OS10-devices-using...http://forums.crackberry.com/bb10-leaked-beta-os-f395/bb10-os-archive-943672/It may also be that your device has a hardware issue, which of course no amount of OS loading can cure. You can run BBVE to see if it provides you with any information, but if it is hardware, you'd have to seek formal warranty support from whoever you purchased it from.Article ID: KB35973 Using the BlackBerry Virtual Expert (BBVE) diagnostics applicationGood luck and let us know!

After 10.7.5 update, Bluetooth can't connect, help!

I'd been using a BT speaker (Logitech Boombox) with more or less reliable connectivty with my MacBook Air (2012) (my Android phone never has a problem connecting to speaker), but after updating to 10.7.5 now, I can't connect to any BT device! The MBA is paired to both devices (phone and speakers), but now won't connect to either. I've tried to re-pair the devices, I've tried the "update services" trick, my MBA is "discoverable", yet nothing works. It's not the speaker, as it connects fine with my Android phone. Losing my mind on this one, please help!

UPDATE, SOLVED?: Somehow, it has magically fixed itself...I literally have no idea how, as I have spent 2 hours messing with it, it just started to work again and list itself as connected. One idea is that perhaps the MBA wouldn't connect until it was "needed", i.e. until I tried to play something from ITunes? But I had tried that before with no luck, soooo. Another Idea is that I had my HDMI hooked up while playing around, and perhaps that would try and take the audio signal instead of letting it go into the BT?...It's a mystery but at the moment, it works, knock on wood.

After downloading newest android update video won't play from within photos.

After updating to the latest Android software, the video playback will not work and the error message "Can't play video" appears when trying to access video from within the photos section, they are visible as thumbnails and first frames. .. They can still be played back from the videos section but it used to work on both. This has affected all videos that are on the phone. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks,

spoke to online help today, they told me to backup my phone carry out software repair using pc companion. it did nothing but wipe my apps, the problem on mine comes from it won't allow films to be downloaded to the memory card, it will however download to the phone, which is crap seeing how small the onboard memory is. i've submitted an email and no doubt in a week or 2 there will be another update to sort this. it seems that none of these updates are tested properely as when my xperia z updated once you lost loadspeaker till the came up with a patch file.
my xperia z1 will play vids but when i updated there was about 40gb from video unlimited saved on the memory card, which immediately came up out of rental.... which is a pile of crap seeing as they were bought films. lets keep fingers crossed this is fixed quick.

After 10.5.1 update, Pages won't save

After I installed Leopard, Pages would not save new documents or save new versions of existing documents. It would crash and leave a black outline of the Save window on the desktop, requiring me to Force Quit. I trashed the preferences and repaired permissions and everything went back to normal. However, after updating to 10.5.1 just now, this problem has returned -- and my previous solution no longer works.
Any ideas?

Peggy,
I didn't repair the permissions until I experienced the problems with Pages after the initial installation. After I did this, things worked fine. Like I said, after updating to 10.5.1 yesterday, the problem returned and after repairing permissions didn't get things back to normal, I reinstalled iWork '08.
Here's something odd. Even though I trashed the entire iWork '08, when I reinstalled, the installer told me that zero space was required to install iWork '08. So maybe there's some other disk issue involved?
The Repair Disk option is grayed out in Disk Utilities. There's an instruction to run the reapir application from a CD or DVD, but Leopard only has one installation disk and it doesn't have any independently running repair program on it.

After iTunes 10.6 update, program won't open

I just downloaded the iTunes 10.6 update and now my iTunes will not open. The icon in my dock will jump a few times, as if the program were opening, but then nothing happens. Any fixes?

I am having exactly the same problem. More specifically, after not loading, it comes up with the following message:
"The iTunes application could not be opened. An unknown error occurred (13010)."
Can anybody help?

After 10.4.7 update iPod won't mount

After 1.5.2 Update iSync won't launch

Updated to 1.5.2 on my macbook pro, and afterwards iSync will not even launch... one bounce of the icon then nothing. Where do I begin to trouble shoot this? Tried fixing permissions but that did not fix the problem.
Frank

Thanks!! It worked for me.
What I found is that just before installing 10.5.2 iSync worked fine, but before exploring the sync options in the new menu bar icon (for synching both .mac and isync, if I got it) iSync stopped to work, it doesn't launch anymore.
Concretely, I have an expired trial account of .mac, and when I go to the synching options, it prompts a question about updating (buying) the account or do it later. Every time I click on "Not now" with iSync working, it stops to launch, and I have to reinstall 10.5.2 Combo update, to get it to launch again. It's a funny bug, don't you thing?
So, the "final" fix was to make synch icon not visible on menu bar, log out of my expired .mac account, reinstall the Combo update, and then it works (again) but don't stop working (unless I touch .mac on the System Preferences, again). So don't touch it!
Apple must release a fix for that if they want me to buy .mac someday. Since then, I won't ever touch .mac preferences, or logging .mac accounts.
I hope this information may be helpful to someone.

After batter 1.2 update MBP won't restart

Well now i'm in a pickle.
I installed the Battery 1.2 update, all seemed to go well. I restarted the MBP and it appears to start, I get the apple logo and the clock type icon spinning around. After about 30 seconds of rebooting the screen goes blue and I get a black dialogue box telling me to restart the computer. At this point the fans seem to go on pretty high.
I've tried restarting it without the battery and get the same result.
I'm reasonably new to Macs. Any help is appreciated on how to get back up and running again. This is a work computer so now I'm SOL until I can get it fixed.
Is there such a thing as starting in safe mode?
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Thanks!
Well after about the 6th try with various options, batter out AC on, AC out battery on, etc... it finally rebooted just as I googled the Mac safe boot.
So it seems to be up again now, not sure why it wouldn't restart before, but I did verify the battery new battery software was installed.
Thanks for the response and sorry for spamming the board; that was a little bit of a panic!

After 8.1.1 update, iTunes won't make a window

No errors on update.
When iTunes starts it runs, but only has minimal menus (just "iTunes" and "Help") and doesn't have a window. "Quit iTunes" is greyed out, only way to stop it is to force quit. Tried a couple of machine restarts, no joy. How do i un-update? i prefer the previous version...

Better now. Forced Quit and Started 3 or 4 times, then it came up ok, with license agreement.

I have had error 4004, 4013 and 4014 messages since trying to update/restore my iphone 5c. It went a bit crazy after I tried the latest OS update and won't turn on. Any ideas?

My Iphone 5c will not turn on/freezes since I tried to install the new OS on it. I've tried itunes updates and restore but get a string of 4004, 4013 and 4014 messages while trying to correct it. I'm wondering if it's even possibly turning itself off as the system tries to correct. Does anybody have any ideas. My use of the phone is fairly modest and it's not taken any knocks, been around water etc...
