Audio jack won't detect any earphone after soaking wet on saltwater/sea

Hi!
I'm a Sony Xperia Z2 user from the Philippines. Just last week,I spent my time on a paradise. Doing island hopping for 3 straight days and that means,my Z2 is continously soaking wet in salt water for 3 days,capturing pictures and videos of corals and other life underwater. I was not having any problem at all! Amazing device I have!
And then the 4th day came. All was well,phone's working normally. But upon looking the audio jack,the walls inside it is covered by 'GREEN' particles. I was told to follow-up running tap water on it,so I did. Nothing happened. Again running lukewarm water on it then cleaned it with cottonbuds.But still,nothing. There's a part of the jack unreachable by cottonbuds,thus,leaving little green particles on it.
I was told by a friend that there's an xperia forum discussing the same fate as mine and got theirs back to normal again. I'm not sure if this is the same forum he was talking about. But anyhow,I want to hear from you if you had heard already the same problem as mine and know the solution to it. I'd be in luck if somebody can link me a thread similar to this.
Thank you in advance for responding.

I'm sorry to hear this, contact your local Xperia Care and request a vacuum test

My iphone 4s won't detect any wifi networks.

Hi
My iPhone 4s won't detect any wireless networks. It was working fine until last night when the connection dropped int he middle of me watching a programme. At first I thought it was our router, but I reset that about 5 times, and all other devices are working fine on it. The phone won't detect any other networks either - if I ask to join a network it comes up with the message "could not scan for wireless networks". I have tried resetting the network settings as suggested on the support page, but it hasn't worked. Can anybody help? Thank you.

If no change after resetting network settings on the iPhone, try restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup.
If no change after that, the iPhone has a hardware problem.

10.5.8 won't detect any external hard drives

I want to update my 10.5.8 Macbook Pro which I bought in 2008. It runs incredibly slow, and I want to reformat it before updating with Snow Leopard. The problem is that my computer won't detect any external disc drives, so I can't back up my important files. Is there any way to fix this, or is there something I'm missing?
I'm also wondering if I'll be able to reformat without my original OSX install disc that came with my computer, and if so, how? Thanks in advance.

If you are going to be upgrading to OS X Snow Leopard, the installer for that should be able to format your drive for you before you do the installation. I'm assuming that you have those CD's for your computer as you need discs to be able to ugrade to Snow Leopard. What happens when you plug in an external drive? Does it just not recognize the drive, or do you just not have it selected to show the drive on your desktop? With Finder being the top window, click on the Finder Menu and select preferences > select general in the tabs at the top and then make sure that External discs is checked.

My computer won't detect any of my devices

Hello everyone,
I've been having this issue for a long time now. In april, I got a windows 8 computer. Everything works perfectly fine. It always detected my ipod classic (despite it being old), my ipad first generation and my iphone 4. After updating to ios7 my computer stopped detecting my phone. No matter what I did it wouldn't detect it. About a month ago I synced my ipod classic and it worked perfectly fine. Around two nights ago, I plugged in my ipod and my ipad and it wouldn't detect it. my ipad would say 'not charning' and the ipod would in fact be charging. I've seen plenty of forums how you need to delete itunes and the mobile support thing and reinstall but it isn't helping me much. I did that already but itunes still doesn't detect any of my devices. i ran a test that itunes has, the diagnostics one and despite my phone being connected, it says 'no iphone,ipod or ipad found.' my phone charges when plugged but it's really annoying to not be able to sync any of my devices. Does anybody have an alternative or something else I can do? Thanks.

What operating system are you running on your E330 and X230?
The answer may be found by figuring out why it works on the E330...
Have you tried to use any other devices in the USB ports besides those 2?
And were the recognized?
Did these devices ever work with your X230?
You could try to roll back to a previous driver update and see if that helps?

Walkman and Album doesn't detect any media after reboot

I have just purchased a Sony Xperia Z1 for 1 week now, and I haven't got any problems with it until now.
For the first 5 days, it worked out fine. Then after I powered the whole thing off in order to charge it more effectively, and when I powered it on after that, I noticed something was not right. First, I can't find any of my pictures in my albums, the images were ' undetected ' by the album, like they were hidden out of sight or something. Then my walkman couldn't detect any songs that I have previously saved, which was working fine and my playlists were gone. I can access them using the file manager but the albums and walkman and movies apps were not able to detect those files. I tried downloading other photo viewer, video viewer and a music player app but they can't detect those files for some reason. And now I can't even access my mobile data.
Help?

I have and use a JVC CD Portable Boombox with the feature your looking for.
Model: JVC CD Portable System RD-HA 3
i am not sure if this model still be build, as there is a falow model?
I use an Airport Express and connected to these JVC CD Portable System RD-HA 3,
for receiving my music streaming from y iPad/iPod or computer.
when the playlist is ended, the JVC CD Portable System RD-HA 3 will automatical shut down after a few minutes. Or it will start also automatcal when there is again audio sound detected.
(This presset can be turn off via the remote control)
maybe you should ask one a JVC receiler what kind of other JVC audio product have this also build in?

DVD-Audio player does not detect any DVD-Audio sour

Hi,
I am trying to play a DVD-Audio disc on my computer using the DVD-Audio player software that came with my Audigy 2 card, but the software fails to detect my DVD-ROM dri've as a DVD-Audio source.
I can play audio CDs and DVDs with no problems using the DVD-ROM dri've.
The OS is WindowsXP Pro with SP and I have the latest patches applied to both driver and DVD-Audio player software.
I would appreciate any suggestions if someone experienced this anoying problem and solved it.
Thank a lot!

DVD Audio encryption security has unfortunately been hacked using the decoders within WinDVD from Intervideo.
As a result, DVD Audio playback using the WinDVD/Audigy combination has been suspended on "new" versions of the software.
I am a registered user of WinDVD and upgraded to WinDVD 7 Platinum in June and DVD Audio was working fine.
I mistakenly downloaded an "upgrade" to WinDVD 7 at the end of July and found all my DVD Audio discs failed to play.
Intervideo (as usual) refused to respond to my technical support queries when I enquired as to whether the DVD audio support was removed in view of the breach of the DVDA encryption.
Thankfully the previous version was still available for download (after much searching on the web) - WinDVD.Platinum.7.0.Release.2.Build 27.07Using a new activation key from the Intervideo website STILL didn't enable DVDA playback on this previous version however.......... I was able to fudge this using the original purchase activation key by changing the PC system date to within 0 days of my initial activation key supply which I had stored in an email.Hey presto - back to WinDVD DVDA support!Intervideo are being very crafty.... they have updated the WinDVD website to remove all references to DVD Audio support and then were answering my technical support queries as if I wasn't configuring my PC correctly.
What versions of DVD Audio playback software are you using?
Creative DVDAudio player? WinDVD (version?)

IMac G5 won't detect any S-ATA disks

Hi there,
I would really appreciate help with the following:
I work as a computer support tech at a university. In front of me right now I have an out of warranty iMac G5 with the following symptoms:
- on boot, it chimes normally; after that, the screen goes blank (not black) and the fans start spinning madly. No error messages appear, nor any symbols regarding missing system disks etc.
- tried booting from different media (OS x.3 cd, OS X.4 dvd, external firewire drive w/OS X.4.6), won't work. It detects the system on the external fw drive, I can even select it when pressing alt on boot, but it won't start up from it; it displays a grey 'traffic sign'-like no-go sign.
- reset pram, no joy.
- After resetting pram, it booted from the Tiger dvd; it went through the first few screens of the installer, up until I need to select an install location: it does not display any drives nor partitions
- started drive utility: no drives detected apart from the install dvd.
- I opened up the casing and reset the PMU: no result.
- I disconnected the original s-ata drive: system boots up fine, but (of course) cannot find a hard drive; now it shows a 'no disk' blinking icon; fans behave normally with drive disconnected (i.e. not constantly working at full speed).
- I took out the hard drive and tested it in another system (G5 tower): boots fine from it, I can login, open apps etcetera; drive seems to work perfectly
- I put in another s-ata harddrive (Western Digital Caviar 200gigabyte S-ATA II): does not work either although the drive works perfectly on the other mac; I tried different jumper settings on the drive to ensure S-ATA I bandwith etc, but none work including no jumpers at all.
- Swapped RAM: no result
- Reset open firmware (reset-vram, set-defaults, reset-all, reboot): no result. I can't think of any way to approach this machine for a firmware update, so I can't try that.
- checked the mainboard for any suspicious-looking condensators etcetera: none.
To me this seems like a faulty s-ata controller or some other motherboard-related hardware fault. Do you agree?
Do you think I've skipped any steps or is there anything left to try?
And if necessary, is an out of warranty repair possible, and how much would this cost, approximately?
Thank you very much in advance for your time and expertise,
Kind Regards,
Sander
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Thank you for the advice!
The serial number starts with W844, which makes it indeed eligible for the extended repair program. But I wonder, isn't this program meant for iMacs with symptoms like scrambled or distorted video, no video or no power?
This mac has a problem with detecting its harddrive and other media, and only if a s-ata disk is built in. When taken out, it boots nicely from external FW media or dvd.
The Apple Hardware Test oddly enough does not find any problem whatsoever. I think this might be because all it does to test the harddrive is directly interrogate the disks SMART-chip, which (correctly) reports no problems with the disk itself. The test does not attempt any reading/writing as far as I can tell. Neither does a program like Disk Warrior.
Do you think this is an early symptom of the display issue? Well, I suppose the machine needs repairing anyway, so we might as well try for the program. If it's another issue, there will probably a hefty bill, right?
Kind regards,
Sander

Imovie won't open any projects after upgrading to yosemite

Can anyone help? I upgraded to yosemite and imovie 10.0.6 and now imovie won't open. IPhoto and Garageband open just fine. After clicking Imovie, it appears in the menu bar but all options from the drop down menus are grayed out. I cannot open any projects and there is no imovie window opening. I have tried deleting and reinstalling the program twice with the same result. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Apple introduced a new document architecture with Pages v5, that is not backwards compatible with Pages '09. With Pages v5.5.2 (Yosemite) installed, a simple double-click on a Pages '09 document will default open it in Pages v5. Once you save, or Pages autosaves this document, it is no longer directly compatible with Pages '09, without first exporting it to Pages '09 format. Pages v5 documents do not contain index.xml files, and Pages '09 documents do.

Nokia 700 won't detect any headset?

Hi,
I have big problem here. I am having a problem with my Nokia 700.
Whenever I connect my headset to the phone, it did not detect! I have already plug in properly.
Please help me, I need it to listen to radio!
This happens a few minutes ago, when I'm turning off the radio.
I turned the radio off, but it froze.
When I unplug the headset, I'm surprised that my handphone is still playing the radio.
After that, it stops working and this happens.
I already restart, restore and remove the battery. The software is the latest version.
However, it worked on my computer, but not my hand phone.
I bought this phone 2 weeks ago, please! Can anyone help me? Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

it is good to know that your problem is solved.
but dont be too happy, you will get the problem soon.
It is not the problem of the software.
it is the problem with the connector.
Nokia is supplying the worst quality
connector in its device costing more than 16 K in India.
I too got the problem.
went to nokia care.
they said , it has to be taken to their workshop for replacement.
I am afraid of sending my brand new device
to nokia care, as they are now providing recycling facility.
that thay may replace it with any recycled material.
Any way, i lost my hard earned 16200 INR and the trust over the NOKIA.

MacBook Pro won't detect Thunderbolt display after sleep

I've noticed a rather anoying bug with Mavericks (or at least this issue only started after upgrading to the latest Mavericks) When the MacBook goes to sleep and I wake it up again, it no longer recognises the Thunderbolt display and USB devices attached to it. The only way yo resolve the problem simply is to remove the thunderbolt cable and re-insert it.
Has anyone else come across this or have any views on how to resolve more permanetly.
Many thanks
Stuart.

I have the same problem and I find it very annoying. There are many threads on the Internet (such as https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5602696) but so far no solution. :-(

Itunes won't detect ipod touch after upgrade to firmware 1.1.4

I am in desperate need of help. My 16GB Ipod is no longer being detected by iTunes.
I decided to upgrade the firmware to 1.1.4. through iTunes. The update wasn't interrupted and i can see no issues during the procedure. when the update was completed, my iPod had no content in it and it wasn't showing up in iTunes.
Here's what i've tried so far to correct this:
- Uninstalled iTunes and all other apple related software and then re-installed
- tried different USB ports on my laptop
- Reset all setting within the ipod
- Run the iTunes diagnostic. It error's out during the sync test.
I've tried to find any other similar example on other sites but haven't been successful.
Please help.

These are other hints http://www.copytrans.net/helpcopytrans.php#22
That might help.

Won't Display any Artists after Letter "T"

Hey everyone. I'm having problems getting any artists (in the artist selection) to display after the letter "T."
Now, I am certain that the songs are in fact in the Ipod because I can find them in the album section. For instance, Van Halen does not appear b/c its after "T" yet it appears when I look through the albums.
Any ideas?
Thank You

Yea i've installed all the updates via the software update program, i can now change my display to work in 1080i but when i try to run a full screen app i get the same problem again...no matter what resolution i'm in
