E71 Freezes at power down

Nearly every time I turn off my e71 it freezes by going to the screen saver with the screen lit up. It stays in this state for about 5 minutes before actually powering off. The only way to "un-freeze" it when it's in this state is to disconnect the battery.
Anyone else experiencing this now or before? Any suggestions please? Would greatly appreciate it!

I suggest you reset the E71. Dial *#7370# 12345 reformat, you'll lose all data. Make a backup first and restore without the settings.

Many Tabs & Windows Lost during Freeze & Force Power Down

Sorry for the long post, you can stop reading at whatever point my question seems clear
Where is the data located of previous tabs and windows from a previous Safari session - during a New Safari session - but PRIOR to slecting "Reopen All Windows from Last Session" ?
This question may be a bit confusing so I will provide the scenario that prompted this question, a few additional details, and lastly an illustration showing what I'm talking about that you can duplicate if you so choose. :-)
I do a lot of research and use many windows and tabs on a regular basis - approximately 80.
I realize now that I should use bookmarks, but starting Safari and just clicking one click -"Reopen All Windows from Last Session"- has been faster for me than daily organizing and updating bookmarks - (lesson learned).
Yesterday in Safari I had these 80 tabs opened in several windows. Later I quit Safari.
Today I started Safari, opened a couple new tabs, then a few minutes later my 2011 MacBook Pro froze and became unresponsive. I had to force power down.
Note: Safari was not "quit" in the traditional sense.
Note: I did not select "Reopen All Windows from Last Session" before my computer froze.
The LastSession.plist file will contain the links for the previous session After you select "quit" in Safari. When you start a new Safari session, then open a few new tabs, but do not select "Reopen All Windows from Last Session" the LastSession.plist will only have the newly opened tabs. Then when you "Reopen All Windows from Last Session" the old previous tabs are opened - so where does the computer get this data from?
It's not possible for me to realistically find the tabs in my history as this work has been done over months and they would be buried in many thousand other links in my history file.
I have not rebooted my computer since the force power down and have it currently in target disk mode connected to my iMac.
If you can help with this you really will be a Master - because both the genius bar person and the engineer on the phone at apple didn't know.
Just in case my description hasn't been clear, I'll now provide an illustration you can do yourself to see what I'm talking about:
Open Safari - Go to apple.com and open about 10 tabs all from apple.com domain.... Then Quit.
Open the ~/library/safari/LastSession.plist file in TextEdit and you will see those links.
Now open Safari. Go to any website - like tvguide.com ... open about 10 tabs all from that domain. Do NOT quit Safari.
Open the ~/library/safari/LastSession.plist file in TextEdit and you will see those links from tvguide.com and NONE of the tabs from apple.com.
Now select "Reopen All Windows from Last Session" in the History menu of Safari and all your tabs from apple.com will show up.
Only now, After having clicked "Reopen All Windows from Last Session" will the LastSession.plist file show the apple.com/... tabs.
So the question is - where is that data saved (all those apple.com/... tabs) which Safari gets it from, before selecting "Reopen All Windows from Last Session" ??
By determining this hopefully I will save the months of research work I had in those tabs.
Thank you.
Safari Version 5.1.1 OS Version 10.6.8

Hi Linc,
I use Time Machine on my desktop Macs, both at home and the office but unfortunately Time Machine was not active on this laptop. Yes, If I had it I would simply revert to the old LastSession.plist file created in the last quit of Safari prior to the crash. But I don't have TM on this laptop, the LastSession.plist has thus been overwritten with the couple new tabs in the active session of Safari before it crashed, and thus the reason for my original post and question.
My hope is that someone will know where the data is grabed from (descriped in my original post) so I can save the months of research work done.
Thank you.

IPhone 4S freeze, then power down.

I have a white iPhone 4S. I took a walk outside, and where I live its approximately 45 degrees Fahrenhiet. The non operating tempature for an iPhone 4S is -4 degrees Fahrenheit and 113 degrees Fahrenheit. With a 5% to 95% noncondensing humidity. Anyway, so when I came into my house, and turned on my iPhone it worked, but then it froze and like 10 seconds after it powered down and wouldn't power up again. I plugged it in for about 30 minutes and kept it in a 70 degree room. I opened it up and nothing seemed wrong with it. The battery seemed okay and same with the wires and the mother board. So, now I am clueless on what happened. I'm thinking about scheduling an appointment with the Genius Bar. Help Please!

What you described does not mean that there's necessarily anything wrong. All batteries operate less efficiently at lower temperatures. If your iPhone was already on low charge, the temperature just put it "over the edge." You can try the same experiment with a full charge. If the same results, then take it to the store.
BTW, to rule out software issues, do a Reset of the phone:
Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears (ignore the Slide to Power Off option that shows up first).

Since installing Mavericks, I have experienced frequent "freezes" in which I can do nothing but power down.

I downloaded Mavericks about 3 months ago. Eversince I have been experiencing frequent system "freezes" not always accompanined by the spinning color ball. When this occurs I can do nothing but power down.
Also another issue: After shutting down and opening numbers I get the message that updates are available.. When I go the Apple store it tells me there are no updates available I am using Numbers 09 version 2.1. I thought when I downloaded Mavericks I got the latest version, but apparently not.

Hi RWD2,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
To resolve your issue with Facetime freezing when you end a call, I would try the first three steps in the article below.
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
Resolution
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
If you are using Wi-Fi, it may be helpful to try these troubleshooting steps as well:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398?viewlocale=en_US
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings including previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords

I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

My mac keeps freezing on highlighting only way to get out of it is to power down and restart

my mac keeps freezing on highlighting only way to get out of it is to force a power down and restart

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 the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login 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?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Z30 freezing and shutting down

Hello soggy001
Welcome to http://supportforums.blackberry.com
Make restarted the z30?
If your problem evidences the persistence
Apply a hard reset keep the power button for 30 seconds.

I recommend you make a reload of the BlackBerry OS Link
Connect your z30 and run BBLink
Then go to preference and press the reload option software
Let the process do all your work, and then you start setting your BB
And load your backup.
And let us know if your problem evidences the persistence.
You must have the latest version of the BlackBerry Link installed.

Internal iMac hard drive keeps trying to power down without my consent

How do you stop an internal hard drive from shutting down when you didn't ask it to?
Background:
I use Missing Sync for Palm to sync my Palm handheld with my iMac. My Palm has a SD card slot it in and the sync software came with a program that allows me to mount the
SD card as an external drive on my iMac. From there, I can add podcasts, music or whatever I want directly to the card. I have used this software since March with no problems.
Also, when you put my computer to sleep or shut it down, there is a click and then the internal hard drive shuts down.
Last night, I activated the program to mount the SD card to my iMac and instead of it mounting, the iMac's internal hard drive started trying to shut down.
I have used this program many, many times to mount the SD card to my iMac with absolutely no problem. It was weird this time because I kept hearing that clicking noise. The computer became extremely sluggish. To me, it appeared that the internal hard drive was trying to shut down. After about 4-5 clicks, it succeeded and the computer froze.
Since that time, shortly after you turn the iMac on, you hear that clicking noise trying to power down the hard drive. Sometimes, it just takes a few clicks and the hard drive shuts off. Sometimes the computer will boot all the way up, I can log in and launch a program before it shuts off and the computer freezes. While I can't check the drive with First Aid or Diskwarrior because it shuts off before I can scan it, I assume the data and the drive are ok because I have been able to successfully boot from it and log into my account but shortly after I log in, the hard drive shuts down and the computer is stuck.
Any ideas? Any help would be wonderful!

You are right. It is failing. I took my Mac into the Apple Store and talked with a genius. Although the hard drive would not do what it had at home (typical when you're trying to get something diagnosed) I shut it down so he could hear the noise I do.
Sure enough, he said the noise I heard was the drive read head hitting its start position. When a hard drive shuts down, the drive head moves out of the way since the "hard disk" is actually a thin floppy magnetic disc. The noise I kept hearing was indeed the drive trying to shut down.
Fortunately, I did make a clone of my internal drive to that external drive 6 months ago so I was (eventually) able to copy over all the important files, update the external clone and boot off of it.
Sure enough, tonight, I opened Disk Utility and it said in plain red letters that the drive had reported a hardware failure and should be replaced.
Since my iMac is Summer 2001, the Mac Genius said they no longer carry parts for it so he gave me the name of a local place that would be glad to fix it up. I called them and luck would have it that they were completely out of the internal drives used by my model iMac. So I have to check next week to see if they have received more in yet.
The good news is I can get a slightly larger interal hard drive since I was down to 10GB of a 60GB factory drive. So far, I hear I can go as high as 160GB but the RPM must be lower since my iMac has no fans.
Thanks for your help! As much as I didn't want to believe it, you hit the problem right on.

Whwhat do when the iPad will not power down??

What to do when the Ipad does not power down, it just freezes.

Hold down on the sleep button and the home button at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen and let go of the buttons. Ignore the red slider if it appears. Let the iPad fully restart, then try to turn it off again.

IBook G4 makes the power-down noise while it's running

I know this is not a good sign and I'm guess that I'm at the early stages of HD failure, but thought it's worth checking. Here's the basic situation:
1. About two or three weeks ago, I noticed that after being idle for a while my computer would make a pinging noise--it's just like the sound you hear when you power down using the power button.
2. The computer didn't freeze or anything so I repaired permissions, verified the disk, had to do some Disk Utility repairs, and went on my merry way.
3. During the past 10 days I've gotten the folder with the flashing question mark and Finder icon a couple of times. The first time I was connected to the network at my office and my iBook booted from there. When I rebooted from the local HD it worked fine. Last night I heard the pinging sound, my computer froze and when I rebooted from my Leopard Disk and went to Disk Utility and the HD didn't appear in the Volumes window. I turned the computer off after this happened a couple more times. This morning I started up fine, was able to SELECT the Leopard DVD from System Preferences and run First Aid on my HD, but n the midst of that, the ping happened and I got the gray "You must restart!" box. Just did that and now my HD doesn't appear in as a disk, volume, or image option.
I'll try Single User Moder, PRam, etc. but I don't think that's the problem I'm having here. Help!

There are a couple of little utilities that can help you keep track of the inner workings of your hard drive and hopefully give you a heads up ahead of a failure:
S.M.A.R.T. Utility
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/32454
S.M.A.R.T. Reporter
http://www.corecode.at/smartreporter/
S.M.A.R.T. Utility can be downloaded and run several times for free. It will give you a more detailed look inside your hard drive than just "verified" or "failing". I think it tends to be a bit more critical than Disk Utility is. If you click on the "Show all" buttons, it will show you any errors on the drive.
S.M.A.R.T. Reporter installs an icon on your menu bar that is green when S.M.A.R.T. status is verified and red when it is not. It's intended to give you a heads up if your drive starts to fail.
Even though all seems well now, I'm not sure your hard drive is really to be trusted, especially if it is getting long in the tooth. It may well work for a while longer, but you might want to monitor how many errors it has and definitely keep everything well backed up.
It could be that your drive is starting to have intermittent mechanical problems, and this is something that Disk Warrior cannot fix. Intermittent problems can come and go and never seem to happen at the shop when you take it in. But if you find anything of concern in S.M.A.R.T. Utility, that would be something more concrete to go on. But as long as you keep everything backed up, there's no reason not to continue using the drive until it goes south for sure.
Good luck!

Have I power down Macbook and monitor (or TV) before connect (or disconnect) through Mini DisplayPort to DVI (or Mini DP to HDMI) Adapter?

Can I hot plug monitor (or TV) through Mini DisplayPort to DVI (or Mini DP to HDMI) Adapter? Or I have to power down all before connect/disconnect through Adapter?

Thank you, Mario.
I just wanted to be shure because previously i destroyed two videocards on my pc by plugging hdmi without power down.

If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.
