Control center opening

Is there some alternative method of opening control center?  Some users with certain types of cases are unable to open control center with the swipe up from the bottom.  Why didn't testing discover this, and offer an alternative.  Even Siri won't open it.  Come on, guys, this is basic.

Yes, I have the exact same problem with Control Center - I have to swipe countless number of times to get it to open. I tied two-finger swipes, certer swipe, corner swipe - you name it; nothing worked. I have iPhone 4S and I have no idea whether it is just phone issue or a major screw-up with the system.
Cases that come close to the bottom of the screen render opening the control center nearly impossible.  I told my wife not to get a case like that, but she thought it would protect the phone better...  What good is a protected phone if you can't USE it?  Just lock it in a box, and it will be safe....

  • Control center opens about one time in ten on my iPhone 4S. How come?

    I recently installed iOS 7 on my iPhone 4S. When I sweep up from the bottom of the screen, Control Center only opens about one time in ten. All the other gestures seem to work appropriately. Is there a magic gesture? I've tried long and short sweeps, hard, gentle and medium pressure, but it still seems to rely on pure luck.

    I am currently using an iPhone 4 and found a similar issue. I have a Lifeproof case on my phone, yet still had issues swiping up even without having the otterbox issue. I restored my phone and it is working a lot better. You could try that if the isue persists.

  • After updating to iOS 8 notification and control center won't open when unlocked

    Ever since I updated my iPhone 5s to iOS 8, the notification and control center will not open while my phone is unlocked. I checked to see if I had it disabled in settings and it turns out I did not. I switched the Access Within Apps as well as the Access While Locked on and off anyway but still nothing. I can only pull the notification and control center open while my phone is locked... it is extremely annoying. I know I'm not the only one though because my friend who updated to iOS 8 on his 5c was having the exact same problems. Some help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

    So yesterday vibration suddenly started working again, after nearly two weeks with the problem above. I have no idea why, I didn't change any settings and the only app that was updated yesterday was Facebook messenger...

  • Catalyst Control Center stopped working properly after widows update

    When I let Windows Update install the newest catalyst control center driver I could not open catalyst control center so I tried to do a system restore but it failed because It said my anti virus was preventing this with the error code 0x80070005.I first tried to disable the anti virus shields and restore didnt work. Then I uninstalled the anti virus and went to safe mode but it gave my the same error. Now Catalyst Control Center opens but the only feature available is HydraVision. I still cannot change the picture and graphics settings because they are not there to select in CCC. 

    Hello , Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More. I understand that your Catalyst Control Center (CCC) program on your desktop computer has stopped working correctly after downloading Windows update drivers for it, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter! To correct this issue, I recommend returning your system back to a previous restore point to before the Windows updates were installed. This can be done by following this resource on Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7).  Once the restore point has been enabled, you can update your CCC and graphics drivers by following this document on Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 7).  Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

  • Ios7 iphone control center- clock

    Is there a way to have the clock in the Control Center open to alarm, NOT timer?  Or at least open to the last clock screen I was on?  I use my alarm clock EVERY day, I don't use my timer every day.

    There is no way.
    When you tap on the Timer icon in the Control Center, you go to the Clock app, there you can move to the Alarm settings.

  • Brother Control Center installed but won't open

    I have a Brother MFC 685-cw and it plays pretty well with the Image Capture application for scanning but I would like a few more options.  I have been to the Brother website and downloaded and installed the CUPS Printer driver and the TWAIN Scanner driver for Mac OSX 10.6. They seem to have installed correctly. I have the Control Center application in my printer folder but when I click on it nothing happens. Help?

  • Can't open Control Center on the Lockscreen after using Siri

    Hello everyone,
    I have got a little bug since iOS 8 and still be there in iOS 8.1 on my iPhone 5S (32Go).
    After requesting Siri something and get back to the lockscreen, i can't open the Control Center but I can still open Notification Center. After lock my phone and turn it on, I can open again the Control Center.
    Is there someone else with this little bug ?
    Thanks you all
    Bye

    No, I do not. I even tested it as soon as I saw your post. With the phone locked, I asked Siri to do something, after tapping to close it, it went back to the lock screen, I swiped upwards and Control Center came right up. Are you swiping from off the screen slightly when you start?
    If a restart and reset have not fixed it, then the next two steps in user troubleshooting are restore from backup, then restore as new.

  • Control center is slow while opening

    Hi All,
    I have 5 modules in OWB project. nearly 50 mappings are there.
    while opening the control centre it is taking much time liike 10min.
    What is the reason? How to reduce this time?
    How to tune the performance of the mappings in OWB?
    Thanks,
    Sai

    while opening the control centre it is taking much time liike 10min.It takes time to Open control center.
    its better to increase the RAM size. Minimum 1GB.
    How to tune the performance of the mappings in OWB? Take the generated code of the mapping and generated the execution plan.
    So most of the performance issues will be resolve by it.

  • No more data to read from socket when I try to open the control center

    Hi everybody,
    I'm using on production environment the following OWB:
    Client: 10.2.0.3.33
    Repository: 10.2.0.3.0
    The control center worked very fine since a week ago, and now suddently when I try to login from the Design Center I get the error "No more data to read from socket"
    I saw on the forum many thread relating the problem "No more data to read from socket", and my case is very close to the thread
    Warehouse Builder error no more data to read from socket.
    even if I'm using a different version of OWB...
    Now, I found on metalink the Doc ID: 549303.1 "*Opening of The Control Center Manager Fails with: No More Data To Read From Socket*" , where there are 2 solutions:
    1)This bug has been fixed in the Oracle 10.2.0.4 patchset and Oracle 11g database.
    2) To workaround the issue change the value of the parameter "optimizer_mode" from ALL_ROWS into FIRST_ROWS.
    In the thread above they found the solution setting the optimizer_mode=first_rows
    ....but I have two questions:
    1) I have another envinronment (development) completely equal to the production env. (same OWB versions), where the Control Center works perfectly and the optimizer_mode=ALL_ROWS
    Why in the development env., even if the optimizer_mode=ALL_ROWS, the control center works perfectly ???
    2) How it's possible that suddently the control center crashed with this error ? I didn't change nothing (at the Db level and at the OWB level)
    My last chance is to apply the Oracle 10.2.0.4 patchset, but I can't change the db version (actually I have 10.2.0.3.0)
    I will appreciate any suggestion
    Thanks in advance
    Alex

    This problem still exists in OWB 11g R2. I hit this same issue yesterday. Not sure why its claimed to be resolved

  • I'm experiencing extremely slow response when attempting to open the control center from the lock screen, any suggestions?

    When trying to access the control center from the lock screen, it takes anywhere from 2 to MANY swipes to get a response.  Never opens on the first try.

    I'm not having the same problem, but there is a feature in the OS that attempts to discern from swipes to unlock and swipes to open control center. This is what you may be experiencing.

  • Opening Control Center Manager Shuts Down OWB Application

    We are currently using OWB Release 10g Release 2 and have not had any issues for the past 1.5 years. All of the sudden beginning last week, we started experiencing issues with the software.
    1. Last week, I logged into Design Center. No problems. I then went to Tools - Control Center Manager. As the Control Center window attempted to open, it shut down the entire OWB application. Interesting. I logged in as a different user and was able to get in later.
    2. As of today, I don't have any issues with OWB. I'm able to get to Control Center without any problems.
    3. My co-worker is experiencing the same problem that I had last week. As soon as he tries to open Control Center Manager, all of OWB shuts down including Design Center. He restarted his PC, tried to log in as a different user, etc. but nothing seems to help.
    We looked under the C:\OraHome_1\owb\log directory but nothing is there. Does anyone have any clues as to what is going on or where we can check to see what is causing this problem?
    OWB Client 10.2.0.4.36
    OWB Repository 10.2.0.4.0
    Thanks,
    Jennifer

    Hi Jennifer
    Worth starting the OWB client using the batch or shell script depending on your platform (either owb/bin/win32 or owb/bin/unix/owbclient.sh) and pasting the standard output from the console window into the forum when you do this, it might have some clues.
    Cheers

  • Control Center will no longer open ios7

    Hi everybody!
    funny thing..  Control center would open no problem all day yesterday after I updated.  Today I am trying to open it to unlock  the screen so it can change orientation and I cannot open control center at all.
    I've checked settings it's on for both apps and the lock screen.
    I've tried it with and without a case
    tried it on the lock screen and in apps..  nothing..

    peeled off the screen protector.  doesn't work
    hard reboot - doesn't work
    I'd already tried it without the case. doesn't work
    I guess I'm going out @ lunch for a new screen protector.

  • Ios7 - control center hard to open

    I have an iPod Touch 5 G updated to iOS7. Sometimes I can swipe up and the Control Center appears. At times I cant and I found I needed to use a stylus. Is there a trick to opening this or maybe I am swiping in the wrong area?

    Screen is clean. I will take off the protective cover....maybe it is covering the sensitive area.

  • After downloading iOS 7 on iPhone 5 the control center won't open.

    When I swipe up from the bottom, nothing happens. Both of the control center options are enabled in the settings. Help!

    Do you have a bulky case with an edge near the bottom of the screen?
    Lots of people describe this problem with Otterbox Defender and other thick cases.
