Auto dial not working

Auto dial not working
I'm using an iPad 4, with WiFi and Cellular and iOS 8.1.3
In the past if I was searching for a hotel and found one I only had to tap on the phone number and it would dial using either Skype or MagicJack. It worked using Wi-Fi or my data plan. It was an absolutely valuable function especially when traveling.
Now, when I click on a phone number, it says that it's going to exit the program (like Safari) and start a new program. When I click, Ok, nothing happens.
I must have inadvertently changed some setting.
Skype works, MagicJack works, but I must dial the number manually.
I have tried turning "Handoff" off and on then rebooting, turning FaceTime off and on and rebooting (and every combination of those two programs and actions).
To say the least, I am frustrated because it must be something obvious. (to everyone else!)
Any ideas as to how to how I can get it to dial automatically again?
Thanks for any assistance.

IPAD user guide for IOS 8 is available on line at apple -
you can download it in IBOOK or PDF format to refer to when you can't get connected to see it on-line
http://support.apple.com/manuals
Handoff is only for using with multiple devices - Iphone/Ipad/ipod
This is the bit in Handoff on Phone calls
Phone calls
If your iPhone (with iOS 8) is nearby, you can make and receive phone calls on your other iOS devices and Mac computers. All devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network, and signed into FaceTime and iCloud using the same Apple ID.
Make a phone call on iPad. Tap a phone number in Contacts, Calendar, or Safari. You can also tap a recent contact in the multitasking screen.
Disable iPhone Cellular Calls. On your iPhone, go to Settings > FaceTime, then turn off iPhone Cellular Calls.
You may have to use Face Time to make calls from the IPAD -- there are page or 2 on that --

Auto dialer not calling out

Hi
I have a water alarm that I can connect to my BT phone line. It will call the programmed numbers if there is a water leak.
However, I can't get it to call out using my BT phone line.
I have taken the devie round to a friend's house and tried it on their phone line - it works perfectly.
I live in a flat (as does the friend I tested it with). I have also tried it in another flat in the block who has a BT line and it also didn't work using theirs.
I have broadband from PlusNet.
I can make and receive calls perfectly using my phone - it is just the auto dialer that doesn't work.
Can anyone help? Could there be a problem with my line that is stopping the auto dialer from working. Maybe it dials the numbers too quickly for my line - although it does work at my friend's place.
Many thanks

The dialler must be set to use tone dialling and not loop disconnect.
Loop disconnect will quite often fail if the circuit has broadband on it, as the broadband filters distort the DC pulses.
Loop disconnect will not be supported on the future 21CN phone network, and manufacturers have been told to phase it out.
There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

Auto brightness not working in ios6

I updated my iPad (3rd gen) to ios6, but when the update is complete i found that the auto brightness not working, when i use the ipad on dark room the brightness not changing, when i use ios5.1 it changing.. Any solution and actually the problem is on ios or in the hardware? Looking for help asap...

Well my device is different and since it is a iPhone 5, it is not being updated to iOS 6 but the issue is exactly the same. From my mind this could be up to software but also could be from an hardware issue. The thing is that even if it worked before iOS 6 for you the new software could have revealed hardware conflicts since the software interacts different with the hardware for some features. This would be the worst case scenario because I know that normally iPhone 4 devices if not the 8GB model will be out of warranty. For me this is just a small issue since my warranty is still one year :(
I have contacted apple care for this issue and have get the info that it will be escalated to the engineering team, for further investigation. As I know there was also an issue with some proximity sensors at the beginning if the iPhone 4 models and I think there was an software fix for a lot of them. Hope for the best!!!
I have also done a lot of Troubleshooting, reseted settings, content and settings, restored in dfu and recovery mode, restored with new .ipsw (iPhone OS), restored on different pc (so even this step gas downloaded a totally new .ipsw file), first on a Mac!
Next step wis that I will let the battery drain low entirely, a Troubleshooting idea of an friend. This might empower the entire hardware for a restart. I am not really believing in this step but I will give it a try :)

Hi KMS, check the codec used between that GW using the FXO and the CTI RP.
Check also the Calling Seach Space
GW should be able to reach CTI Route Point and CTI ports partition.
If you try other extension it works fine?

Auto keyframe and auto transition not working

auto keyframe and auto transition not working and I have a creative cloud, in addition the auto keyframe works in the getting startel lessons....

In order to use these you need to have the autokey frame and transition selected
OFF ON
and have the first key checked then move the playhead to the new position and it should add the transition.
Did you try this and it is not working?.

Auto brightness not working on iPhone 5?

On the iPhone 5 - In the settings, when flicking the auto brightness on/off the screen shows no change in brightness - whether in a completely dark room or with the lights on etc. My iPhone 4 has been updated to IOS6 and seems to be working normally (brightness auto adjusts in all situations).
Anyone else have this problem of the auto brightness not working?

There is nothing wrong with the auto brightness.
When you have auto brightness enabled the slider works as the minimum brightness setting with auto brightness.
If you have the slider too high the brightness cant reduce because youre not letting it.
Set your brightness at about 25% and you'll see what I mean.

Dear Sir / Madam,
We are using MS OFFICE 2013 with Windows 8.

Your help is required in this since we have tried all the options.

Hi,
What's the size or your archive.pst file? Please first make sure it's not getting close to 50 GB limit.
If the size far below 50 GB, please try to use the Inbox Repair tool to scan and repair the archive.pst file. If the file is corrupt, the autoarchive will not happen.

Voice dial not working after upgrading to iOS 5

After I upgraded my iPhone 4's operating system to iOS 5, voice dial is not working any more. When I press and hold the home button, voice control is enabled but only music-realted features (such as play, pause, etc) and "what time it is" work. The "dial XXX" and "call NAME" option don't work any more, and in the blue screen that is shown for voice control, I don't see the word "dial" appearing any more.
My friend who has iPhone 3GS upgraded and she doesn't have this problem.
Do I have this problem because I made a mistake during upgrade?
Is there some place where you can specifically disable/enable voice dial?
Or, is it Apple who disabled this feature, to temp iPhone 4 users to upgrade to iPhone 4S to have that feature back?

No, because I don't even know how to do that. I just restored the phone to one of the previous backups I had, using iTunes. The OS was unchanged (iOS 5) but the functionality was restored.
In this process, I lost all my applications, but my notes, contacts, etc were untouched (see below). As for apps, all I had to do was to look at the list of my apps in iTunes, and reinstall them.
If you want to do the same thing, note that you may lose your contacts or notes if you simply restore an old backup. Before you do so, enable iCloud and make sure your contacts and notes (and other important things) are backed up in iCloud. Then, after restoring your phone, enable iCloud again and it will fetch all the contacts, notes, etc that you might have added after that backup you just restored.

4.3 Update - Car Stereo Issue, voice dialing not working with Bluetooth

I've seen some similar issues reported, but they were for specific cars/stereos, and the symptoms were different, so I'm posting about mine:
Phone: Samsung Galaxy SIII, Android 4.3.
Car Stereo: Pioneer AVH-X2500BT
This is a stereo I bought and installed myself. All of its features worked fine, and I was enjoying making calls using voice dialing via the stereo. Then, I installed the 4.3 update to the Galaxy SIII. Ever since (literally, I made a call that day before installing it, and tried shortly after), I cannot use the voice dialing feature. Any attempt to use voice dialing or voice commands via the car stereo will fail. Here's what happens:
I do a long press on the car stereo's Home button to initiate voice dialing. On my phone, S-Voice starts up, and a Toast (little message) pops up briefly that says "Check in-car audio". When I talk, the little animation on the microphone button in S-Voice does not happen, meaning it's not hearing anything. The car stereo shortly cancels out of voice dialing mode, as though it timed out, or something.
I've tried switching to Google voice, but the same thing happens. I've tried all kinds of configuration on both devices. I've unpaired and re-paired. Nothing.
Also, turn-by turn directions from Google Maps appears to not work. The app thinks it's giving them, and when I turn the car off, the voice suddenly works from the phone, but it just won't come out the stereo.
All other features work fine, including Pandora, and streaming Bluetooth audio. I can even make phone calls, by accessing the contacts and recent call list from the car stereo. The calls work and come through the stereo fine. Literally voice dialing and Google Maps are all that doesn't work.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

There could be any number of factors that may be affecting this, byounie. It may be that the firmware on your car stereo headunit may need to be updated. My direct recommendation to check first would be to access your bluetooth submenu, and next to paired info for the Pioneer AVH-X2500BT, you should see a little cog wheel/settings icon. Please select this, and start unselecting everything available there. Work your way up, and enable and test these different settings one by one, to see if there is a conflict between Google Maps and Voice dialing services. Let us know what happens, byounie.

Auto resolve not working for cached outlook

We recently migrated from Exchange 2007 to 2010. One thing we have noticed is that auto resolve (to alias name) is not working for Outlook in cached mode. Not in cached mode or via owa, it seems to work fine.

Hi,
Does the issue happen to all users or some specific users?
Please check whether the issue happens in Outlook Online mode. If the issue only happens in Cached mode but not in Outlook Online mode, please create a new Outlook profile to have a try.
If it doesn't work, please restart Microsoft Exchange File Distribution service in Exchange 2010 and Exchange 2007 then click Send/Receive > Send/Receive groups > Download Address Book to have a try.

Auto Calculate not working in Locked Title.

I am in the process of upgrading from AW 5.0.4 to AW 6.2.9
Just as a matter of interest and also it may help some who suffer the "Autocalc on strike" bug.
I ran into the "Autocalc on strike" bug in two large spreadsheets when they were saved as AW 6. I use these spreadsheets continually from year to year to keep annual track of my business so they are important to me.
All of the many calculations and references updated automatically as data was entered, except those that were placed in the "Locked Title". These needed the manual "Calculate Now" command to force them to respond.
I tried the "save in AW 5 and save back into AW 6" trick but this did not work.
The solution that fixed both spreadsheets was to:
Quit AW 6
Open copies of the original AW 5 spreadsheets in AW 5.
Go to "Options" menu and uncheck "Lock Title position"
Save
Quit AW 5
Open and save the spreadsheets in AW 6 again.
The title can be locked again if desired.
Wonderful.... now I have my precious spreadsheets and database working perfectly in AW 6 and access to my many files produced over the last eight years, here's to another ten years of using Appleworks.

Looks like you are facing the issue mentioned in the below article.
Auto-Blend Layer masks are all black or all white
If so, revert back to PS CC as of now.
