I cannot sync my iphone 4 to my imac it connects for a few seconds then goes off

please can someone help me When i connect my iphone 4 to my imac using bluetooth it pairs up but only lasts for a few seconds then goes off and shows
not connected i have tried all sorts of ways but without success why is this happening am i the only one does anyone know the answer please

Seems like my problem - I have a new iPhone 4 and it does not want to pair with any device. It seems to connect, and is recognised by my MacBook pro, it shows the code that my Macbook shows, but then says it cannot connect. Neither did it connect to another imac, nor does it connect to my carphone. Have received a replacement (as I had bought the iPhone five days ago), have a new one now, but exactly the same problem. But I cannot alter the bluetooth settings on my iPhone, and restoring does nothing, nor leaving it in the completely unaltered setting, nor switching off all other wireless devices. Does anybody know how to solve this?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

My backlight will not turn off automatically. I have to manually turn it off and forget to sometimes and that drains my battery. Does anyone know how to make it turn of automatically after a few seconds?

Use the Settings app.

Is Auto Lock set to Never? Change it to less time.

My iPad suddenly started to show crazy colors. I turned it off and had to use the two button trick to turn it back on. Now it shows only green stripes for a few seconds and goes back to sleep.

My iPad suddenly started to show crazy colors. I turned it off. It would not reboot until I used the two-button reboot. Now it shows only green stripes. only for a few seconds and goes back to sleep. HELP!

Standard troubleshooting...
1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider. Slide to power off. Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if, it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
3. Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
- Press the red to delete all apps from this list.
- Press the home button twice when done.
4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

After I set a repeating alarm clock to off, it goes back to on after a few seconds.

After I set a repeating alarm clock to off, it goes back to on after a few seconds. What is happening and how do I fix it? I have an iPod touch, 4th generation, iOS 5, no jailbreak whatsoever.

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

HT1339 my ipod nano 7th generation....works fine as long as it's on the docking station. when off the station, the display goes dark after a few seconds. it's fully charged. please help. this is the heartbeat of my business. thanks

In the worst case, it's still under warranty (all 7th gen nanos are still under one year from purchase).
So, you disconnect it from power, and it almost immediately goes dead? You can try a Restore... but it doesn't sound like the type of problem a Restore will fix.
You should probably have it looked by Apple Tech Support. If there's an Apple Store nearby, you can take it to the store's Genius Bar. To avoid waiting, you can make a reservation at the store's web page

X31 backlight turns off annoyingly after a few seconds

Weird problem with my x31. Normally, everything is...well...normal.
But every once in a while, the LCD backlight will turn off after 3-10 seconds of keyboard/mouse inactivity. As long as I keep typing, the light will stay on. But if I pause to think, the backlight goes off and the only way to bring it back on is to hit F3 to "darken the screen" and then move the mouse around or hit a key.
It's like there's some sort of extreme power saving mode going on in the system.
It happens even at the boot screen or the BIOS editor...so this is some bit of hardware that has gotten confused. After a couple of hours, it goes away...but the system isn't much use when it's happening.
When the backlight is off, the LCD is still painting a picture -- I just need to shoot a powerful flashlight at the screen and all the pixels are being properly controlled. There's just no illumination.
Ideas? Is there some sort of software diagnostic that would knock some sense back into the backlight controller?

No, the backlight is the color it should be.
I turned off the power-saving mode for "auto-dim" -- but that is calibrated in minutes, and this is happening in seconds (not only that, but its erratic...sometimes 1 second, sometimes 10).
Just for fun I downloaded the latest version of the Power Management stuff (which was just updated a week ago) and ran a whole series of PCDoctor diagnostics on the hardware. Problem is gone for now...we'll see if that actually was the solution.

Wifi is going on & off every few seconds, how to repair this?

I took my MacPro Mid 2009 model running Lion Safari 6.0.2 to the Apple Store Thursday of last week to the Apple Store located in Tampa @ the Interconential Mall, left it overnight with an Apple Genius Technician & picked it up the following evening. My Wifi upon arriving home was on the top of the list as the APPLE Location, I last used my computer. I changed that & dragged my Wifi from home to the top. I did this becasue my Wifi is turning off every few seconds, which makes downloading & surfing the web a big pain! What can I do to keep the wifi to stay on? My Mac everytime I open it, occasionally makes a sound like a disc is in it and there isn't one. I know there is no way they could hear it at the Apple store due to the noise & so many people there.
I had a technician come to my home to check out what my internet speed was, he corrected that he said & told me I needed a Time Capsule to connect to my router. If I am not correct, please correct me but doesn't a Time Machine work as a router & a backup?

Settings>Messages>Send & Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at. If your iPhone number is listed in there, select it and unselect your email address to use for Messages. If your phone number disappeared or never was in there, you will probably have to turn off/sign out of Messages on your iPhone and on your iPad and then start all over again by signing into Messages on the phone first, then on the iPad. Your phone number should be available to use for Messages in the setting that I described after that.

IMac starts and goes off after a few seconds

My iMac turns on and after doing the usual sound goes OFF! Any advise?

Hi,
Check for Login Items Open System Preferences/Accounts then select the Login Items tab. Delete any files or apps you have listed there. And go to /Library/Startup Items. Move any files in the Startup Items folder to the Trash.
If login items aren't the issue, probably a good time to boot from your install disc, run Disk Utility to verify and if necessary, repair any errors on the startup disk.
Insert your install disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
(In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first from the installer menu)
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your start up disk and click Restart
While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window. Where you see Capacity and Available. *Make sure there is always 10% to 15% free disk space*
If you cannot boot from your install disc, try booting in Safe Mode

My 4th gen iPod touch will not work. The unlock screen comes up but dosent do anything because its is frozen. the after 5 to 10 seconds it looks like it will shut off but that also freezes. After a few seconds it goes back to the unlock screen. Help!

I dont know what to do I need help to fix this, my entire life is on that thing!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

When I shut my lid the backlight goes off like it is supposed to, but comes back on after a while. It never used to do this, how can I fix it?

This problem is a recent one (only has happened in the past 2-3 weeks). When I shut the lid it used to immediately sleep (the power light began to do its fade in and out, and the backlight turned off), but now when I close the lid, the power light stays on, the backlight goes off for a few seconds before coming on again (not sleeping properly?). Then the backlight will turn itself off again and the computer sleeps like it is supposed to. Is something wrong here and how can I fix it?
Thanks

I think its the same in 10.5 as in 10.6 (the example below). Do System Preferences > Keyboard. Looks like this:
UNCHECK the box that reads, "Use all F1, F2, etc, keys as standard function keys," or hold the Fn key to use F11 and F12 for volume control. It looks like you have to own an Apple aluminum keyboard to get a function key on a desktop computer.

J4680 goes offline then ready every few seconds tying up system resources

Please, I hope someone can help with this. I have been back and forth with tech support for SIX MONTHS and can get no satisfaction (and I try).
My J4680 wireless printer keeps turning itself offline for a few seconds, then goes back to ready a few seconds later. It slows down everything my laptop does -- email, word, excel, etc. It took months just to figure out the printer was the problem with my slow computer performance!
Long story is I tried to add this in addition to a 5510 when I switched from a desktop to a laptop with a docking station (want to be able to print when not docked).
Six months later, I have uninstalled and reinstalled numerous times. I gave up trying to get both to work together and abandoned the 5510 a month ago. Now I just want to make the J4680 work properly. And I can't.
Has anyone heard of this?
More info:
I am using a Lenovo laptop running XP.
The router is a Linksys WRT54G
My most recent attempt at fixing this was to follow HP tech's suggestion: uninstall all software HP, uninstall the HP folder in Program Files and change the twain.dll and twain32.dll in Windows folder to twainold.dll and twain32old.dll. They had me try to do do something with the SNMP Status Enabled (which was not valid) and set the device discovery service to manual (which didn't work).
I reinstalled everything. This is the frustrating thing: It worked fine for the first day, it always does right after I install it. But once I turn off the computer and restart, the printer starts up again turning itself offline, then online, then offline. (You can watch it do this in the printers folder. I watch it often. And scream.)
Please please please, does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks.

OK, the service mentioned above was related to "A generic host process for Win32 service has encountered a problem and needs to close". HP has acknowledged a driver and windows firewall issue. I am not sure if this will fix my ready/offline flickering, but may it will in your case.:
