Connection failed and phone freezing

I have had the incredible for a couple of weeks now but the last couple of days I have received a message stating "connection failed" when I try to check e-mail or the internet.  The phone also has frozen a few times while I am on the internet.  I have to take the battery out each time to get it started again.  Anyone else having these problems?

My connection is 3G and I have cleared all history and cache.  I had a problem last week with the phone randomly shutting down and restarting by itself, went to Verizon and they replaced the battery.  I like the phone, but not happy that I am having so many issues right at the beginning.

  • Can't get to Time capsule back-ups -- Connection Failed and "Connect As" does nothing

    I had to replace my hard drive.  I am trying to access the Time Machine back-ups.  I can see the back-up volume in the Finder under the "Shared" category, but when I try to connect to the back-up volume, I immediately get "Connection Failed" and the "connect as" button does nothing when I click on it. 
    Do I have to re-start backups before I can get into the old back-ups??  Any advice on how to get "Connect As" to let me connect? 
    Thank you.

    EXACTLY the same problem..

  • Connection failed and cannot check firmware status

    I subscribe internet for mobile services..But I repeatedly receive notification saying connection fail and I cannot check the firmware status although I already type the #0000#

    Hello johnjoel, the number to check the firmware is *#0000#. For the connection failed error check that the setting is correctly configured. Or ask your operator to send the settings via sms and then save it and set it as the default one.

  • I recently bought an external hard drive and attached it to a wireless modem router. The problem is that i can't access it from my macbook. I get a "connection failed" and "the server is available on your computer. Access the volumes and files locally".

    Well I believe I described the problem above. I want only to add that the external hard drive is a Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex Drive 1TB and the wireless modem router is a Belkin N Plus (model F5D8635-4 v1). Also, in the finder window under "shared" I see a "belkinserver" and when I click it, it says "connection failed". If I click "connect as" I get the "the server "belkinserver" is available on your computer..." which I mentioned above. I tried to connect macbook via ethernet to the modem router and then when I typed "smb://belkinserver" it immediately prompted me for a username and a password and when I typed them finally I got to enter the contents of the hard drive! So what's the problem wirelessly? 

    If your external drive does not have an independent power supply, you may wish to consider a couple of lower-cost options before tossing the drive. Bus-powered drives have no external power source and must get all their power from the computer. They can exceed the computer's USB energy budget.
    Cheapest option:
    1 Meter USB 2.0 A to 5 Pin Mini B Cable - Auxiliary USB "Y" Power Design for external hard drives.
    This gets power from two of the computers USB porst sna can provide enough power to wake up an under-performaing bus-powered drive.
    If you don't have enough ports to use this, try the next cheapest option:
    Newer Technology 7 Port Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Hub with Power Adapter for Mac & PC
    Such a hub has a an independent power supply to make up for wahat the comptuer fails to provide.

  • Apple Remote Desktop 3.2.1 Connection failed and Macbooks

    Hi All.
    Anyone see this where you can't control/observe into a Macbook? I'm able to copy files and update the ARD software, but I get the "Connection failed" message when trying to control/observe. I went through the "Removing ARD" process and re-installed, but no luck. With my other units like a Macbook Pro, MacPro, and IMac....I have no issues just with this one.
    I could try and re-image, but that's the last step I would like to take. Thanks for any help in advance.

    I had a similar problem with 15 out of 20 MacBooks on a school network. Couldn't figure it out for the longest time. Tried reinstalling the OS, tried reinstalling ARD, etc. No luck.
    I still don't know the cause of the problem, but here is the solution that worked for me on all 15 failing machines:
    1) In ARD access the "Create Client Installer" function.
    2) Making sure select your options properly, create a custom client installer package. (In my case, each machine already had an admin account which I wished to use, so I did not need to create a new account for ARD access).
    3) Take this little installer package around to each machine which isn't working and install it. You don't even have to restart, it just immediately begins to work.
    Hope that helps!

  • Connection Failed and WebDAV screen appear when attempting to backup iTunes

    When I try to backup all of my music in iTunes, I get the following message and screen appear. Click on the link to see a picture of these:
    http://homepage.mac.com/louh/PhotoAlbum44.html
    Why is this message and screen appearing and should I type in my information on the WebDAV screen or am I being hacked? To backup my iTunes, I clicked File>Backup to Disc>Backup entire iTunes Library and Playlist.
    Thanks for any help or suggestions,
    Lou

    In addition, if I opened iDisk and had the icon sitting on my desktop the 'Connection Failed" error message appeared but I was able to cancel it. Without iDisk open I could not get rid of the error message unless i force quit. I'm thinking that at some point I put some music into iDisk (don't remember ever doing this) and this may be causing the problems. The backup appeared to work even though I didn't test it.
    Still wonder if I found an exploitable hack? I'm glad I didn't give out my user name and password!

  • Blackberry Tour Youtube problem/facebook and phone freezing problem

    ok any time i go on youtube to watch a video it never works i always get this error thing that says:
    in the top right corner it says Error Playing in red
    and then a box opens and says "An error has occered attempting to play media." and then all i can click is Ok
    and this has only been since i installed the buzzmetin app and then removed it cause it was just pissing me off
    also i docked my phone with my pc to add some music to the media card thats about it.
    and now for some reason i cant view youtube videos.
    normal videos saved on my media card work fine just youtube from what ive tried.
    and then the other problem is with facebook
    ever since i connected to my pc and got that app its adding all the pictures of my facebook firends to when they call me. I DONT WANT THIS
     and i already went through all the settings and checked them not to show but for some reason it still does?
    and also when ever i go to my friends list through the facebook app it starts freezing like mad even though its already loaded.
    so anyone have any advice i can use to fix these two problems? mainly the youtube one
    the facebook problem is just bothering me but i just use the mobile browser app to get to facebook now for the time being.
    ive had my phone for about a month now.
    with bell service.
    can anyone help?
    OH and just on a side note incase anyone can help its pretty simple
    is there any way to change the blue tooth access password for my phone?
    mine is by default 0000 and i wanted to change it to something different so people cant just access my phone when i have the blue tooth on

    YOUTUBE has not release an app for Blackberry Tour yet. The only option you have is to download an app called Vision (http://vision.metova.com/download) I do have BuzzMe app and still watch videos on my phone. Hope that helps! As for your freezing problem, make sure whatever app you open..ie, internet, games, google maps....make sure you close it fully. One way to make sure your BB is as fresh when you wake up in the morning, download an app called Quickpull Lite. Good luck...

  • IPhone 4s: upgrade from ios 5.1 to ios 6 failed and phone stuck in recovery mode

    I am on a Macbook OS 10.7.5.  iTuens 10.7.
    This afternoon I plugged in my iPhone 4S and started the upgrade process from iOS 5.1 to iOS 6.
    The update process failed at some point and now I am stuck with only the "Restore" option in iTunes.
    The frightening thing is that I am not sure if my data is backed up (most importantly my photos). 
    I had not done a backup in a while, but when I go to Library/Application Support/MobileSync/ and look at the backup folders, there is a backup in there from today around the same time I started the update, and the size is close to 9GB. 
    Is this my iPhone's backup before the update was processed?  Does iTunes / Apple backup before the upgrade process automatically? Am I safe to restore from here or do I risk losing my data?  Anything else I can do try?
    I'm in the process of upgrading to the latest iPhoto so I can at least get some of the photos that were backed up in there before it maxed out.
    Very very frustrating experience ... remember to back up before you upgrade, especially if you're over a wireless network!

    if pictures are your main concern, but you have icloud activated on your phone and computer, then they should be backed up on your computer.  If the only option you have is to "restore", then go ahead and do it and you should hopefully get the option to restore that backup that you spoke about, after itunes installs ios6 to your iphone.

  • SG 200-08P - connecting PCs and Phones

    Hello,
    we have a serious problem over here with some new SG 200-08P switches firmware: 1.0.6.2
    They are setup behind 2 SG-200 50 layer 2 switches - actual firmware 1.3.2.02.
    We have 4 VLANs: 1 for DATA and 2 for PHONE, 10 fpr MGMNT and 20 for GUESTS - on the 08-P only VLAN 1+2 is needed. CDR protocoll is active.
    Ports 1-7 on the 08-P is setup as "Trunk, 1U, 2T", parameter: Auto Negotiation ON. We tried FlowControl ON and OF - makes no difference. Port 8 is setup as "Trunk, 1U, 2T, 10T" to the floor switch. The connecting port on the floor switch SG-200 50-switch ist setup as "Trunk, 1U, 2T, 10T".
    One of the problem switches: on port 1-4 of the 08-P there are connected 4 Cisco 6921 phones . On Port 5-7 there are connected 1 HP Z400 and 2 Elite 7200 PCs. One of the 6921 phones is switching to a DELL Latitude 6420 laptop.
    So it happens every morning, that the first staring PC ist working fine, then the switch has to be switched off and on to get the next PCs connected to the network. The switching 6921 phone does not connect at all. But after some more switching off/on it works.
    We thried another 08-P hardware with the same config, we tried an older firmware level ... we setup the PoE-phone ports as GENERAL 1U, 2T. We gave external power to the phones so that PoE is not overloaded ... nothing helps. Only some switching off/on helps and the PC gets its IP address from DHCP and the phones all come up an find the CU 6000.
    Is there someone outside who may give a helping hand on this?
    Thanks so far...

    Hi Jens-Peter,
    I would try disabling smartports and green ethernet on the SG200 switches.  Then you will need to hardcode each of the ports to have the necessary settings.  Often times when a reboot is required to restore functionality smartports is the cause. 
    As for the 6921 phones, you need to be sure to have auto voice vlan enabled.  Otherwise the phones will not be able to pick up the correct VLAN via CDP.  Let me know, if you have any questions.

  • IPhone hacked or virus!  Text messages gone and phone freezing!

    CALL APPLE SUPPORT ASAP IF YOU HAVE THIS ISSUE!!!!  They don't respond to these discussions!
    (800) MY-IPHONE (800-694-7466)
    My wife and I woke up this morning with a text message on both our iPhone 5 and 4s (running on Sprint) for $10 for Microsoft Office.  We did not click on the text, but our text message app crashed.  Then our texts disappeared and reappeared after rebooting, and we deleted the suspicious text but could not access any of our other texts.
    It has been hours later and we can't text and our messages are there and then gone, our phone keeps on freezing on other apps, and my iPhone 5 screen is flickering.  We both received another $10 Microsoft Office text and were able to delete it again. 
    We have rebooted, turned off, let the phone rest 30 minutes off, etc. and our phones are still worthless.  They appear to work for a while and then start acting up again.
    I called Apple  (800) MY-IPHONE (800-694-7466) and spoke to a senior customer assistant, Brittney, who said I was the only person reporting this problem.  I told her there were threads here with the exact same issues and she told me they don't respond to problems reported here since it is just a discussion board and only do something if you call them. She suggested for me to do a full restore to factory setting on my phone but showed no real concern why this happened to our phones... 
    Our phones either have been hacked or have a virus and this is a huge issue!  If you have this problem, please call Apple ASAP.

    Virus contamination of a non-jailbroken iPhone hasn't been documented yet- that doesn't guarantee impossibility.
    No, it doesn't. But it's highly unlikely that is what happened.
    A single text message should not result in a crashing of the Messaging app, nor freezing of the entire phone, nor automatic shutdown as it's resulted in at least seven people within the forum today.
    There are/were several documented bugs that could cause EXACTLY that behavior when receiving a malformed text message.
    Note that none of this constitutes "infection" of the phone, or "hacking" as in unauthorized accessing of information by a third party.

  • ASA 5505 Connection Limit and TIME_WAIT Freezing Device

    My little ASA 5505 is working great and I am quite happy with the purchase now that I've solved a number of the issues we had, thank you all very much for the help.
    The next issue I have is rather annoying.  The device appears to be artificially crippled and limited to 10,000 connections.  This isn't a "CPU limit" it's just some fake limit in the device as far as I can tell.
    The problem we have is that we are only using around 500-600 connections and CPU usage is only like 25%, and yet the connection count is pegged at 10,000 and locks us out of our network.
    I am pretty sure this is because there are a lot of "dead" TIME_WAIT connections hanging around not being used.  In our application we only have the couple hundred connections but they do move around a bit every now and then.
    Is there anyway to get the device to ignore the "dead" connections and not count them towards the artificial limit on the device given that it's pretty clear the CPU / etc., is not utilized sufficiently.  These aren't real connections, we only have a couple 100 established, they do just move around a bit however.
    We are really only using 500-700 connections according to our servers, the others are just sitting in TIME_WAIT doing nothing.
    Anyone had this issue before or can offer solutions or workarounds?

    Hello,
    Have you checked the output of 'show conn' and 'show local-host' at a time when the connection count is maxed out? If the ASA is not removing idle connections, you should open a TAC case to have this investigated. Otherwise, the above commands should show you which hosts are maxing out the connections and you can take steps to remediate those problem hosts.

  • Re-installation failed and phone blackout

    I was re-installing my nokia 701 software, it got disturbed whilst it was in the process, now my phone is dark and seems to be not working, what can I do?

    There are no instructions about correct three keys to "hard reset" Symbian S^3 and later devices in this resource which has not been kept up to date and anyway should only be used with caution to try to restore telephony functions in such devices as a precursor to visiting Nokia Care facility for software to be completely re-installed.
    Although screen shows as black, device may well remain in "flashing mode" and be easily restored should correct drivers be abailable upon PC to recognise it.
