After downloading iOS 6, I can't seem to shut down my phone after holding the lock and slide key. Phone not jailbroken

You mean lock and home key right? I have the same problem with my 4th gen iPod touch. Seems as though if I hold the buttons again a 2nd time, the iPod automatically restarts as it loads the apple screen that appears when you turn on the iPod/iPhone but I can't get the iPod to stay turned off.

  • .How do I find out what Version (generation) of Ipod touch I have, as I want to know if I can download IOS 5 onto it? It was a gift so I only know the model and serial numbers but not the type

    Hi, can anyone help me out with this question?
    How can I find out which version of Ipod touch I have. I only have the model and serial numbers as it was a gift, but I would like to download IOS 5 if it is compatible?
    Very frustrated Ipod user, any advice would be much appreciated.
    Lynda.

    I had the same problem because there are so many iPod models.  There is a great article in Wikileaks that explains it all and also has pictures.  I'm confident this answer your question.

  • After downloading iOS 7 I can't use my AppStore as another language than english appears...

    After downloading iOS 7 I can't use my AppStore as another language than english appears... I am getting frustred!

    I don't know if this helps, but I experienced a similar issue with my iPad 2 after updating to iOS 7.
    My "solution" to the problem, after pulling out my hair for hours, is to plug it in the wall charger, and then shut the iPad down completely. It does charge when turned off, although a bit slower than usual, or so it seems. Pheeew...:-) I realize that this is a pain if you have a problem with an iPhone, because you have to turn it off to charge it. Presuming that this works, of course. Otherwise, I don't know..
    After the update, the iPad simply does not respond when i plug in the charger, nor does it connect to the USB port. The battery just keeps wearing down. I think it could be connected to the firmware change that iOS 7 brings, which I guess in itself has to do with Apple wanting to block out 3rd party manufacturers of power adapters of the new "lightning" type.
    The only thing I can think of that might have gone wrong on my part concerning the update is that I didn't have it plugged in while installing the update - although I believe this is recommended from Apple. I'm thinking that in my case the new firmware update simply hasn't registered any adapter present upon installation, and that might have caused the iPad to not recognize an adapter at all, regardless of type. I have always used original Apple adapters, btw, so I'm not really guilty of anything other than not plugging it in while updating - or, at least that's my own theory. Which is better than no theory at all.. ;-)
    Obviously, I'm waiting eagerly for Apple to solve this issue. Not really happy at all with this..

  • After downloading iOS 5 I can't add or edit my contacts list.

    After downloading iOS 5 I can't add or edit my contacts list. How do I get this functionality back?

    Just do the following this seemed to work for me.
    1. Settings
    2. Select icloud
    3. Turn contacts on
    4. Come out of that and check for the add sign at the top right-hand corner of your contacs window
    5. Go back into Settings, Icloud and switch it back off and select keep contacts
    6. Voila your edit button should have stayed in the contact window

  • How can I download Micosoft Office 2008 for Mac on my new Macbook Air? I have the DVD and product key

    How can I download Micosoft Office 2008 for Mac on my new Macbook Air? I have the DVD and product key

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You have two options:
    1. If you have another Mac or PC, use Remote Disc to install it on your Mac > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5287
    2. Buy an external optical drive and use it to install Microsoft Office.
    Both options work correctly. If you are going to use the optical drive once, use Remote Disc, but it will be much slower than using an optical drive connected to the computer

  • Can't Log Out, Shut Down, or Restart after 10.5.2 update

    Since updating I've been unable to log out any user, though I can switch between users via fast user switching. Selecting Restart, Shut Down, or Log Out [User] makes any active windows become inactive, but does nothing else. (The same happens selecting restart from the system prefs or an updater/installer.) After the 10.5.2 update I had a major kernel panic that locked-up the whole machine and had to hard shut down. I've had several mini-panics since then, but the machine operates normally otherwise. I did a thorough Apple Hardware test and everything passed. None of the utilities I ran could find any issues. I am able to Restart and Shut Down via the Login Window (under the fast user switching menu). I have to enter an Admin account override, so I'm not sure if this is causing any system damage. I'm very frustrated with my very new computer. Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated.

    This is then not a permissions issue with your existing accounts since it is system wide.
    Your hope is that if you run Disk Utility Repair Disk Permissions would fix and Apple Installer installed files (the main system) permissions. Also do a Verify Disk to check for any underlying directory corruption. The safe boot means the issue is not extensions or fonts. There could still be a plugin somewhere screwing things up but it is unlikely.
    If repairing the system file permissions and downloading and re-applying the 10.5.2 combo update does not resolve the issue you have corrupt files in the system and need to reinstall the system.
    There is one more potential source and that is what are known as page faults. These originate with cache files which can't be loaded back as expected. This is a conflict issue and could be the source of the problem.
    You can manually dump the root and system cache but a better alternative is probably to download a program like Yasu. It is configurable, has a simple interface and will repair permissions and clean the cache.

  • After downloading foxfire 4 it says I have to shut down foxfire before it will install. I cannot go any further and it will not let me install the foxfire program. What do I have to do to install forxfire onto my laptop?

    I downloaded foxfire 4 onto my laptop. As soon as I start into the install program a message comes on that foxfire will not install untill I exit forxfire. There is nothing running except the install program. As soon as I click ok everything exits and starts all over again with the same message. It will not install. What can I do to get it installed

    To get rid of "pop-up ads and other crap on my computer when I am on the internet", click on Safari in the Menu bar, and select Preferences. Next select Extensions. Delete all of them. Restart Safari.
    The first step in addressing the black screen is an SMC reset.
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

  • I got the new late 2012 iMac 21.5 inch in February and just realised there are some weird wave lines behind the glass where the camera is. i can't seem to wipe it off because its on the inside and it is ruining the light control of the camera.

    Should i return it to apple and has anyone ever had this before? do i have to backup everything on my computer?

    Is it blurry? As mentoned how light is your room? Light begind you will make your face dark to people viewing. As to backing up yes an external hardrive, timemachine backs up your mac, there are other ways but they all require extenal storage, since time machione is built in use it, if anything happens to your mac without it you loose everything. Always have backups.

  • TS1702 After installing IOS6 my iphone 4s continues to shut down on me after trying to use any app. Can anyone help me out with what to do? I've rebooted and backed up everything.

    After installing IOS 6 my Iphone 4s continues to shut down on me after trying to use any app. I've backed up and rebooted, nothing helps. Can anyone help??

    There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
    Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

    In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

  • I just bought an iphone 4 and it suddenly went dead. Even after pressing the lock and back button for 30seconds also it did not work!

    Helpp! Phone not working!!!

    Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo come back again?
    Can you try another USB cable?
    If still no luck, you'll have to get it serviced: Service Answer Center - iPhone

  • After downloading iOS 7 on my 4S I show 8,976 on my email icon.  How can I eliminate them all without going one at a time?

    After downloading iOS 7 on my 4S it shows 8,976 on the email icon.  How can I move them all to trash without doing it one at a time?

    Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.

  • After downloading ios 8 on my i pad air 16 GB, my i pad keeps on restarting on its own after some time?  any idea how can it be rectified?

    after downloading ios 8 on my i pad air 16 GB, my i pad keeps on restarting on its own after some time?  any idea how can it be rectified?

    Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke.  If it has not been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, read this.
