TS1363 apple sign shows up and then turns off after a few seconds, and i can not connect to my itunes

apple sign shows up and then turns off after a few seconds, and i can not connect to my itunes

I have the exact same problem trying to use the Remote app on both my iPhone 3gs and iPad 2 with either my Mac or ATV2. My Remote app used to work on my phone - I can't recall if I ever actually used it with my iPad, but when I tried today, I got all the same results as you did (on both iPad, and then iPhone). I was using my ATV2 to play music from iTunes on my Mac and wanted to use the Remote app, but it would not connect to either device no matter what I did.

If what Allen says does not fix the issue I have seen this as a Hardware issue and I would get into an Apple Store if it is close by

My nano is fully charged and when I use the earphones it comes with, the nano stops playing my music after a few seconds and turns off. But when I use another earphone, it's okay and stays on. How do I keep the nano from turning off after a few seconds?

Why does my nano keep turning off after a few seconds while I'm listening to my music? It's fully charged and brand new.

I've tried everything in the article "Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows Vista and Windows 7 video playback performance issues''. Here are my results.
My computer meets the requirements.
All software (Windows, iTunes and QuickTime) are up to date.
As for updating my drivers, I found nothing labeled 'Video'. The closest thing I found in Computer/Manage/Device Manager was to click + next to 'Display Adapters' under that I found 'Intel (R) HD Graphics Family' which I right-cicked. From the menu, instead of 'Properties', I selected 'Update Driver Software...', then I selected 'Search Automatically for updated driver software'. I saw the messages "Searching for Software... Searching online for Software... The best driver software for your device is already installed. Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date." I got these same messages when I searched for updated audio drivers.
My computer is already at the highest display resolution. (1366 x 768 recommended) That's as high as my resolution will go. Hmm, I noticed the article's example shows '(1920 x1080 recommended)'. Is my max 1366 x 768 resolution high enough?
As for QuickTime, deselecting 'Enable Direct3D video acceleration' had no effect. Disabling the DirectX entirely (Safe mode (GDI only)) allowed the audio to play, but there was no video, only a black screen.
As for turning on DMA, the only item under 'IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers' is 'Intel Mobile Express Chipset SATA AHCI Controller' So I right-clicked, selected 'Properties'. There's no 'Advanced Settings' tab in there. The tabs are 'General, Drivers, Details, Resources' no 'Advanced Settings' anywhere. So much for that.
'Readyboost' was already set at 'Do not use'.
No 'NVIDIA nForce Serial ATA (SATA) controllers' exist in my computer.
The problem still exists. Please help.

When I connect my guitar using apogee jam the note drops off after a few seconds. Why???

When I connect my guitar using apogee jam the note drops off after a few seconds. Why???
Its the same on most of the preset amps.
Please help, the apogee cost me £80!

Is it stopping recording after 8 seconds? Are you using Garage Band?
If both of these are correct:
This is actually a feature (i'm not sure why it defaults to this). Instructions for the iPhone version are below:
With the amp section open, touch the sproket on the upper right.
You should be in a "settings" type area with three tabs. Touch "Sections"
Select the section and switch it to automatic - it will now record until you stop recording by touching the stop icon.

Korg micro37 keyboard turns off after a few seconds

Hi all,
My Korg micro37 keyboard turns itself off after about 4 seconds after I plug the keyboard in. Any idea why this happens? It doesn't happen on a Ubuntu 12.04 laptop, but does on another Arch laptop with 3.7.1 kernel. I had the same problem with 3.5.x kernels. Thanks.

So I did call Apple. That was pointless since they had no idea what was wrong. I made an appointment with a Genius at the Apple store nearest to me. The associate who checked me in said his wife had the same problem (and discovered it while on an 8 hour flight, which stinks).
The genius who helped me was great. He had no idea what the issue was and hadn't heard of the issue before, so he took my phone into the back room and ran some diagnostics.
He found that there was nothing wrong with the hardware at all, but he noticed an error with my firmware.
He restored my phone (while my phone was plugged into itunes he held down the home and wake/sleep buttons. Then when the apple logo appeared he let go of the sleep/wake button but kept the home button pressed). This erased everything. I wasn't worried about that since all my contacts, apps, and music were backed up on my computer.
I guess he reinstalled the latest firmware and os update. He put a couple of albums worth of music on there too for me to test it. Problem solved.
It took an hour or two for me to get everything back onto my phone and in its proper place.
That was a pain, but worth it since I can now listen to music freely with no interruption.
The only thing I'm really ****** about is that my game data is all erased. Apparently when you back up your apps in itunes, it doesn't back up your progress/saves/scores in your games. I have about 30 games on my phone so this really, really *****. I guess I will just have to replay all the levels in Angry Birds, Peggle, Cut the Rope, etc. Lost a lot of progress in Infinity Blade which is pretty especially awful.
I just listened to about a half hour of music with no interruptions though, so I guess its a fair trade.
Good luck.

Yoga 13 display does not Turn off after idle

I have the computer set to the balanced power option, and the disaplay is set to turn off after 5 minutes on battery and 10 minutes when plugged in. Unfortunately the screen never turns off.
Anyone know how to fix this problem ?

hi tmpst,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
If a wireless device (mouse, keyboard, etc.) is plugged to the computer, the display, screen saver or sleep function might not work. If this is your case, try to:
1. Remove your wireless device (might include a usb dongle)
2. Apply the Moving mouse causes laptop to exit sleep mode fix
If you have Power DVD installed, apply http://support.microsoft.com/kb/913405
Let me know your findings.
Cheers.

USB external HD does not turn off after system shut down

This is not a new issue in Leopard. I had this issue also in Tiger but I never bothered to ask whether there may be a solution to this issue.
I have firewire as well as USB HDs attached to my iMac. If I put my computer to sleep both the firewire and the USB HDs turn themselves off. The HDs come back to live after I reawake the Mac. But if I turn off the iMac then only the firewire HDs turn themselves off. The USB HDs remain turned on.
Is there a setting somewhere that can be changed so that the USB external HDs turn themselves off after system shut down?

Since the issue is not a Leopard issue, and maybe not even a Tiger issue, you might check with the drive manufacturer for some assistance.
Does the drive turn off when you eject it and then pull out the USB plug? That's important.

System does not turn off after halt after successful suspend-resume

I have the following problem: when I try to shut down my laptop after it resumed from suspend to ram. It seems to shut down normally until, at the very end, it reaches the system halted part (which you wouldn't even be able to read if the system would actually halt). I'm running an updated system, no testing, on an Dell Latitude E6400. The system shuts down normally if I don't suspend it.
Any ideas? What additional information do you need?

I meant: turn off via 'sudo init 0' instead of 'sudo halt', not after.
Ok, wasn't sure. Isn't "sudo halt" effectively the same thing? How are they different?

HT203433 I have done all of the above and neither my IPod or IPad will auto down load book smaples. The Auto switches just turn off after a few seconds.

I have tried to follow the steps and everything the HELP steps say to do is completed. Yet the slide "on" switches on both the iPad and iPod will not stay in the on position. They immediately slide to off. I get the error message they must be turned on........ Is there some other setting or trick to this? I want to preview boooks from itunes store. The version of iBooks is the latest also. Even though my job involves computer programming, I find these Apple products have such limited support for such expensive objects. I have had two college students check this to avail also, one of whom just graduated with a computer science degree...... Very discouraging

I have tried all the steps in the users guide except the restore as new. The reason I have not taken the time to do this two new devices do not work. When I got the iPod back in December, it did not work. I was taking an international trip and wanted to see some book samples and could not. I have been busy since the trip and haven't taken time to try to trouble shoot. Now my company gave me a iPad for being a very long term employee and it does the same thing. That is why I spent hours reading the FAQs, etc, trying to make the switches stay on. That is why I do not think it worth the time to reset as new.. Being a computer tech, It appears to me that the problem lies in the iTunes program on my desktop, rather than both new IOS devices.
Thanks in advance for the thoughts and suggestions.

Music fades and turns off after a few seconds of playback.

I've noticed an odd problem with the ipod/music function of my iphone 4. When start an album, the first song will play for about 15 seconds. After that, the music fades and stops all together. I have to physically go back and push play again. It will play fine for some time, but this will happen again randomly.
It's particularly annoying when using the phone in the car. I know the iphone automatically does this if you unplug the headphone jack while the music is playing. I wonder if something could be wrong with that mechanism, maybe the jack.
I also only noticed this after updating to 4.3. If it's a 4.3 issue hopefully the next update (4.3.1?) will fix it.
Has anyone else had this issue/figured out what its all about?

HP Pavillion 17 - Screen backlight does not turn off after shut down

The screen stays lit up white after shutdown is complete. No lights appear on the power button or any of the keys. Just a white screen. Any ideas what could cause this? Laptop works perfectly when powered on. Thanks, Susan

Hi @suzygf78,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that your display is still after your computer is shutdown?! I am happy to help you with this. It would be best to get the full product number and OS version. Please read the following documents if you need help in finding those.
How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Is the Windows Version on My Computer 32-bit or 64-bit?
Is the display you are describing the built in display or an attached 2nd display?
As a start here are a few documents to start with that may help, but if it is the built in display I admit I am scratching my head a bit as it is a very weird issue.
Resolving Problems with Notebook Displays (Windows 7 and Windows 8)
Resolving Problems with the Brightness of the Display
Diagnosing a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) for Damage
Please let me know if any of those proved helpful, or post the requested information and we will go from there.

Ipad does not turn off after ios7 update

I recently updated my ipad 2 to the iOS 7.3 update. I left it alone to update because I knew it would take some time. I set it up and then had to leave my ipad to take care of my baby. I came back and it wouldn't turn on. I figured it had run out of juice so I charged it all day today and it still won't turn on.

Try rebooting...
press and hold the home and power buttons until the Apple icon is displayed, then let go.

Hello warhogs17,
After reviewing your post, it sounds like the iPhone will not turn on past the Apple logo. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,
Mario
