Brand new N73 is frozen solid

I have resently purchased a new N73 from T-Mobile (through contract ) . Unfortunately after 5 weeks the phone is now frozen . All I get when I switch the phone on is the back-light and the blue nokia symbol . Also , clock and date is working and showing when phone is not in use .
But I am unable to connect to the main menue or any other menues or procedures . I have contacted Nokia support and after trying several procedures they sugest taking the phone to a Nokia outlet . Also , T-mobile have informed me that I cannot receive a new replacement phone as I informed them of the problem them 3 days after the 4 week deadline.
Then main issue I have is that I have some important medical photos on the phone and have been told by both Nokia and T-Mobile that they cannot guarantee that my photos will be saved if the phone is fixed . Infact T-mobile have informed me that the liklihood is that photos will be lost .
Will appreciate if anybody can give me some advice on how I can somehow save/recover my photos before getting phone fixed . I have tried using Nokia PC Suite through a USB connection on my Dell laptop but no luck . I should also add that the phones memory was almost full ( I was getting warning messages ) when this problem occurred .
Thanks for any help/info that you can provide .

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Brand new ipod classic frozen and doesnt appear in finder

i am so freakin sad... I also have a brand new mac notebook, i got them at the same time. For the first week everything worked together fine. I plugged in ipod today to load some more music and it did not show in finder and is now frozen. I followed the 5 steps but nothing

Does the iPod work still, if it is frozen let the battery die and then start to charge it. If none of this works take it to Apple store's genius bar and they will most likely fix your problem.

Brand new IPod Touch frozen

My son's brand new ipod touch went to a blank screen and now won't do anything. Even when we hold the sleep button for more than ten seconds nothing happens. Should we return it to the store? He just got it last night.

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.
If that doesn't help, take it back. If it fixes the problem, read this (especially chapter 2) before you do anything else.

Problems with Brand new N73 (latest software / fir...

Hi All just got my N73 however i found that its doing strange things, I found that the most irritating thing is that it freezes alot can't do squat with it untill I reboot it eg yesterday tried to add a new contact selected save and then nothing it was still trying to save 15 minutes later I have also noticed that when i connect it to the charger ( when I go to sleep) it tells you that its charging but then the next day when i pic it up it says its charging again like it stopped half way through the night

Try formatting the phone. If this does nothing just send it straight back for a new one if its still within its 14 days cooling off period. It's not worth the hassle of trying technical fixes if you still have this option open to you.

Brand new iPhone 4 frozen and not recognized by iTunes

I got a replacement for my iPhone 4 today and it got disconnected while i was putting my old backup on the device, Now it is stuck on the apple with a loading bar and is not recognized when i plug it into iTunes?

As AM_Kidd says, but I would do the Reset while connected to Wall Charger, and hold both buttons for at least 20 seconds. If this does not work. And you decide to Restore the Firmware. Then.
Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer. Hold both Home and Power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. This usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Then Restore the Firmware.

I just opened my brand new iPod touch 4th generation, and it's frozen with green, vertical lines. Does it have to be replaced?

It's Christmas morning and my parents bought me a new iPod Touch 4th Generation 4G 32GB. I started charging it, 5mins later I walked back into my room and there I saw it - frozen, white screen with light green, vertical lines. It's brand new, and I just opened it about 5mins prior. I never dropped it, it never touched water. My mum bought it at the nearby Target. I opened it, in it's case and everything. So I have no clue what happened. I really hope the workers at Target didn't just sell me a broken iPod. This really stinks, and I really hope somebody can help me. I feel terrible for my mum having spent so much on it. So please, someone help me out.

Hello planb77 / PANIDORA, I'm having the same problem. I'm using my iPhone 5S or my iPad Mini cable and wall charger to do it (both originals) , and the iPod Shuffle does not charge at all, doesn't matter if is direct on the wall or trough my Macbook Air.I 've restored it once, but nothing has changed. What else can I do?

Brand new 30 GB iPod frozen

I followed the steps...installed the software and plugged in my brand new iPod which was functioning before I plugged it in but then it TOTALLY FROZE and has been this way for three hours. I have tried to reset my brand new iPod about 20 times but nothing seems to help it from being frozen on the menu page. I have read others have had this issue but resetting is not helping me...help, help, help please? I was so stoked when I opened this gift but now I am soooo sad!!!

Sadgirl
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Do you mean you plugged it into your computer or into an electrical outlet?
If into your computer, were you using USB?
Have you made sure that the hold switch is in the off, rather than on, position? This might be the source of your problem.
Hope this helps.

My brand new 2.9GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 frozen to blank screen with Vertical lines. Why! any ideas before I send back to store. Thanks

My brand new 2.9GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 JUST straight out of the box worked for 20 minutes, long enough to sort Apple ID etc, then froze to a blank screen with Vertical lines. Why! any ideas before I send back to store. Thanks
ps: mavericks not installed on it yet, didn't even have chance to do anything with it!

None. Take it back ASAP.

Brand new X1 Carbon - big issue - screen corruption in BIOS/boot, constant rebooting and BSOD

Hi all,
I got a new X1 Carbon mid March and am now having pretty severe problems with it. It first started a few days ago with this within Windows:
Click to see larger
I rebooted it and it came good. Now today, it did it again so I rebooted it and it started not being able to boot. It would get to the first Lenovo screen where it says 'Press enter to interrupt normal startup' the screen would go corrupted and it'd reboot.
So I went into the BIOS to run Lenovo Diagnostics and whenever I press enter on Lenovo Diagnostics it just reboots again. Sometimes when it reboots, the green light on the power button flashes a few times, the keyboard flashes and then it all goes dark and does that for 5-10 times before booting.
Now most times (say 19/20 times) it tries to boot, it does 'Preparing automatic repair' but it is frozen and as you can see below it is broken:
Click to see larger
Out of the 1 of 20 times it manages to get into Windows, I get:
Click to see larger
In terms of specs, this is the highest end X1 Carbon with the i7, 2580x1440 touch screen, 8gb RAM and 512gb ssd if that helps at all?
The model# specifically is: 20A7-A008AU with a S/N of R9-009TXX (last 2 digits truncated).
All I have done so far is managed to update the BIOS before it crashed again. It has the latest version now from the Lenovo website, mid-March build I think. The drivers etc are all standard but it wouldn't be driver related as the reboot/corruption etc happens before Windows as well. I presume the 'preparing automatic repair' is a Windows function, but the same symptoms happen within the BIOS etc. I haven't got a photo of that as it reboots before I have the chance to snap a pic.
I've lodged a job with IBM (for some reason it redirects to IBM when you go to lodge a service call, is this normal?) but am hoping someone else knows of a quicker fix for me because it's difficult for me to be without a laptop due to my work.
If this is a replace job -- which I imagine it is as it seems to be hardware related to me, how often does that typically take in Australia?
Edit: Resized images to keep total under 50kb as per moderator request

I just got told that I have to wait 72 hours before I can lodged the claim because that is how long it takes to reflect that I upgraded the warranty. Even though I only bought the laptop brand new 3 weeks ago!
What a waste of $334 to extend the warranty this morning. Be warned all that if you upgrade it for the hope for a quicker fix you have to wait 72 hours for Lenovo to know you upgraded the warranty to next day onsite fix despite having the invoice etc for it and they won't even lodge a normal warranty claim because there is a new one coming!
I asked for a service number and got told I can't have one because they won't lodge the claim until the warranty database is updated! 3 week old laptop. Sometimes I wish I got a Mac so I could just go into the Apple Store and swap it there on the spot.

New 2TB Time Capsule: solid amber light, but TC working well...what's wrong?

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me...thanks in advance for reading through this question!
I have a brand new 2TB Time Capsule, using it with the AT&T U-verse modem/router 3801 HGV.
After much consternation, I finally got the TC set up in bridge mode with the U-verse router.
The TV, phone, and internet are all working well through AT&T...and my wireless internet
connection through the TC is working great as well. Also, the TC is performing the first
back up of my MacBook Pro hard drive. Everything seems to be working great, I think.
However, I have some questions that I feel need to be addressed:
1- The light on the TC is solid AMBER, not green. When I check the connections in the Airport
Utility, all indicator lights on my screen are green, and the "dot" beside the TC icon is green.
Solid amber indicates that the "Time Capsule is completing its start-up sequence". I would expect
the start-up sequence to be completed long ago and the light to be green...and I can't find anything
wrong.
Any ideas as to why the light on the TC could be solid amber??
2- What should I do to get the light to be green??
3- I have no idea of the speed of the back-up, and what it should be. I have about 190GB of data
to back up. I totally understand that it takes many hourse for the first back-up. It looks like the
speed I'm seeing is changing frequently, and it's backed up about 3.5GB in about 20 minutes or so.
Is that a fairly "normal" speed?? I just want to make sure my configuration is good.
4- I'd like to set up a "guest" wireless network with an easier password...I had done it earlier when
the connections were not working and perhaps I accidentally removed it when updating to "bridge"
mode. To set up a new network, do I just write over the info in the fields when I get to "Wireless"
tab in the Airport Utility?? The info from my "home" network populates those fields now, and I
just don't want to risk overwriting the info and losing that network.
Does the TC "add" a new wireless network when I add new data in those fields...and SAVE the
original "home" network I created?? Just making sure!
Thanks to those who reply!
Chris

1- The light on the TC is solid AMBER, not green. When I check the connections in the Airport Utility, all indicator lights on my screen are green, and the "dot" beside the TC icon is green.
That is weird.. most TC I look at solid AMBER means the hard disk is dead. Not sure but since it is working it is no biggie.. there is some control over how the led functions.. but I doubt you can set the color different.
In other words.. not a clue.. if the TC is new take it to the genius and show them.. that is not the way it is supposed to work.
3- I have no idea of the speed of the back-up, and what it should be. I have about 190GB of data
to back up. I totally understand that it takes many hourse for the first back-up. It looks like the
speed I'm seeing is changing frequently, and it's backed up about 3.5GB in about 20 minutes or so.
Is that a fairly "normal" speed?? I just want to make sure my configuration is good.
Over wireless expect slow.. you did not state wireless or wired.. but those look like reasonable wireless speed. your files will load at different speed.. small files are slow.. larger files much faster.. it takes time to write the tables for many smaller files.
We always recommend first backup over ethernet.. even if the TC is pulled out of the network.
4- I'd like to set up a "guest" wireless network with an easier password...I had done it earlier when
the connections were not working and perhaps I accidentally removed it when updating to "bridge"
mode. To set up a new network, do I just write over the info in the fields when I get to "Wireless"
tab in the Airport Utility?? The info from my "home" network populates those fields now, and I
just don't want to risk overwriting the info and losing that network.
Guest network is removed as an option in bridge mode.. just use the uverse modem wireless for guest.

Brand new Mac user with a brand new Mac problem!

Hi Everyone --
I am a brand new Mac user... I've only had my MacBook Pro 13" for three days. My Mac has been continuously freezing while I use it. When it freezes I only have safari running so I know its not from application "overload". Once frozen, I cannot move the mouse, "esc" or use any commands. Essentially my only option is to force it to shut down by holding the power buttong down. Please let me know if anyone has any idea how to fix this! With school coming up I cannot afford for my computer to be freezing every 20 minutes!
Thanks in advance.
-Rachel

Well... I'd still take it back - let them know that you received it as a gift three days ago. They may still replace it for you or they may take it in for repair. Just be nice and explain that you don't expect a new MBP to function as it is (or malfunction) and let them, at least, run diagnostics on it. As it's so new, there may be something simple that they can fix as you wait. Did your boyfriend already register the machine with Apple or did you? They may take the registration date into account...
But I'd take it to the Apple Store, regardless...

Take 45s to boot a brand new Mac Pro

Hi Mac Pro folks
I just got a brand new Mac Pro running Mountain Lion. It came with a 512MB SSD as the boot disk and a 2TB disk as the second drive. What I got confused is: after powering it on, the Mac Pro takes average 45s to boot to the white screen with an Apple logo.
This is actually the second Mac Pro, the previous one having the same configuration took 30 seconds to boot. As the previous one's second drive got clicking sound from the first day, Apple replaced the whole machine. Now the clicking sound has gone, but the second Mac Pro takes an even longer time to boot from SSD.
Is it normal? Has anyone ever experienced the same thing?
Thanks for any comments.
Regards,
B

This is a Mac Pro 5,1 so I would expect it should take less than 10 seconds to boot.
Moreover, the SSD is the only startup device under Startup Disk.
It seems the only PCI card is the ATI Radeon HD 5770 that comes with the system.

No it should take 10 seconds. That is what my SSD on Mac Pro 1,1.
PCIe cards can affect booting, especially if you boot from one.
3rd party SSD or not? \
firmware is current?
SSD is set to default startup disk control panel?
You've done ML Recovery and checked the SSD twice: the top of the drive to check partitions, the user volume to check the system directory.
If it is 3rd party what make?
Does it show TRIM is enabled in SATA entry in System Profile?
What else is installed.
Does not sound normal to me to replace anything except the hard drive for clicking, and then to just zero the drive.
I would never pay for disk drive from Apple when there are better prices and as good devices.

Plethora of problems on brand new mid 2010 13" MacBook Pro

This computer is about a month old and has been behaving very strangely since just a few days into its life.
Symptoms:
1. Computer would freeze or otherwise become unresponsive after being woken from sleep.
2. Music would keep playing long after iTunes has been shut down. Repeatedly starting up iTunes again and shutting it down only produced an additional layer of sound. Only remedy was to reboot.
3. Freeze (I gave up waiting after half an hour) on the boot HD choice screen for Bootcamp with Windows 7. It would keep displaying the 2 hard drives on a grey background, fans would spin up, northbridge felt incredibly hot. After about 5 attempts with booting directly into Windows 7 from Mac OS X from the System Preferences > Startup Disk pane, the choice screen started working properly.
4. Safari 5 sometimes slows down and/or beachballs, plus often crashes while browsing casually. I have not been able to find the source of this problem. It's not Flash, not embedded Quicktime video, I don't know what it is.
5. Computer would randomly adjust keyboard backlighting and screen brightness without any change in light conditions, in the middle of the night for example. Manually adjusting screen brightness right after waking the laptop from sleep recently froze it indefinitely.
6. Mouse cursor sometimes lags for a second or so, only to recover in performance.
*I tried to fix the problem:*
1. Running all the latest software possible, on every front, down to plug-ins and 3rd party apps. Never attempted any system modifications, themes, or other mods.
2. Checked HD with Disk Utility, repaired permissions. Same again, but with Drive Genius 3. No problems were detected.
3. I have reset my PRAM and the SMC/PMU.
Results:
1. Fan now speeds up uncontrollably and randomly almost up to the maximum 6200 rpm. I have never, ever, witnessed such speeds before under any amount of load. This can occur while browsing the Finder, while watching HD video off Youtube with ClickToFlash, or while looking at simple text webpages. The fan would never spin up this much before, not even while attempting to watch 4K video in Flash which I suppose is quite taxing.
2. None of the other problems have gone away.
3. In Windows 7, I still got solid gaming performance, although I have obviously never let it fall asleep under Windows in sheer fear of what might occur. I have not tried running Windows after the PRAM and SMC/PMU reset yet.
Questions:
1. Is this normal to occur on a brand new laptop? If it isn't, what can I do to fix it?
2. If there is nothing else I can do, how can/will Apple help me? I am tired of not being sure whether or not my computer will perform or not, and I need it for things like rushed coursework and presentations.
Thank you all for your advice in advance. I am truly frustrated and will appreciate all the help I can get.

Since waking it up 2 hours ago, I can no longer use the MacBook Pro in OS X. It unavoidably freezes right after connecting to the internet.
