Earpod headset doesn't change volume when iPhone 5 is on charge?

When my iPhone is put on charge my headset's volume buttons don't change volume, however when I take the phone off charge it starts working again. It is not a hardware issue as I have recently got my earpods replaced on warranty, I suspect it's to do with the iOS's accessory feature mistaking the charger for a dock of some kind and disabling the headphones from interacting. I am currently on iOS 6.1. Thanks, Oliver

My airport express seems to be broken -- light is yellow and does not flash and doesn't change even when I press the "reset". Tried unplugging and reset -- still a solid yellow.

AX light is yellow and does not flash and doesn't change even when I press the "reset". Tried unplugging and reset -- still a solid yellow. I assume this is a goner?

Unfortunately, based on your description, I would have to second that your Express is a "goner." However, before giving up on the unit, be sure that you attempt a "factory default" reset at least 3x just to be sure.

IOS 7 doesn't change the lighting bolt icon when iPhone 4s is fully charged

When I connect my iPhone 4s to a plug and it starts charging, I can see a lightning bolt on iOS7 next to the battery, but when it is fully charged it doesn't change to a plug icon as it used to change on iOS 6. Any suggestions? Does it damage my battery?

Well, for the time being (I mean, if Apple does not go back to the bolt/plug icons) if the device shows 100% then it's fully charged.
But feel free to let Apple know that you want it in http://www.apple.com/feedback

My ipod 5th gen won't change volume when headphones are plugged in, but when they are not I can change the volume on the speaker. How do I fix this?

My ipod 5th gen won't let me adjust volume when headphones are plugged in, but when they are not I can adjust the volume on the speaker. How do I fix this?

Try a hard reset of the Nano. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
I assume you have double checked to make sure you are plugging the headset all the way in meaning the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano?

ITunes 11.1.5 doesn't open automatically when iPhone 5 connected

I have tried checking and unchecking "open iTunes when iPhone is connected" and that hasn't helped.

I’ve found another solution for those where this doesn’t resolve it.
From user Crosbie at MacForums.com
You can extract iTunes Helper from the iTunes package, if you like, to replace the absent one.
It can be found by right-clicking the iTunes app and choosing 'Show Package Contents'; then navigate down to the 'MacOS' folder. You can then drag it to your open 'login items' window.

Hey Alexander,
Has iTunes Helper been removed from the login items? Go to System Preferences> Accounts> Login Items.
You can add it again manually as described here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1610692
you can also get it back by downloading and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes.

ITunes doesn't launch automatically when iPhone is connected

This used to work fine...I'd attached my iPhone 3GS to my MacBook via USB, iTunes would automatically launch and begin synching my iPhone. Then (I'm not exactly sure what happened...perhaps it was an update, or a spate of time when I was travelling and using a spotty wireless connection, I'm not sure), but for several weeks now, iTunes no longer autolaunches and synchs when I connect the iPhone.
I did some tests:
iTunes does autolaunch when I connect my iPod Classic.
I can open iTunes manually, and iTunes sees my iPhone and syncs it automatically.
When I connect my iPhone, iPhoto does come up automatically if I have photos to sync.
The iPhone makes it's happy little connection sound when attached to the laptop via USB and still charges.
Under iTunes Preferences, Devices, I still have "Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from synching automatically" unchecked.
So the only thing I can see that is not working here is autolaunch of iTunes via iPhone.
I have iTunes 10.4(80)
iPhone 4.3.5
Mac OS 10.6.8
Any ideas?

My AD-41 Headset doesn't Decreases Volume?

Hi friends...
I have just bought a new N73 music edition recently.
I have gotten a problem with my Headset Ad-41.
All buttons work fine except one, and its the decreasing volume button. I took it to the place I bought the device and asked for this problem. he said all other headsets just work in one way. he said me it just increases volume and doesn't decreases it.
I wonder how is it possible that a nokia headset device can't decrease volume ?
is he true? or there is a problem with it?
tnx
Solved!

He is not telling the truth. The headset is faulty.

External drive doesn't show volume when used internally (and vv)

I have an early 2011 MBP 17" where I have replaced the optical drive with the 750G hard drive that came with the computer. in the hard drive spot I put in an SSD. Recently I got a 1T 2.5" drive and I want to copy all the files from the internal 750G to the 1T and then put the 1T in the optical drive bay to replace the 750G.
I got everything copied to the 1T drive via USB - i put the drive in a USB 3.0 enclosure that I've used before with this machine. everything copied fine. so i swapped out the 750G for the 1T in the laptop. when I booted up, the drive did now show in the finder. in Disk Utility it shows up as a device and the indented volume is a greyed out and showing a system volume designation (something like disk3d or whatever the OS uses for this [I didn't make note of the specific volume name]). when I put the disk back in the USB enclosure, it worked fine.
So i formatted the 1T in the macbook, interally, and it works fine that way. but when I put the 750G in the external enclosure, thinking I could copy the files that way [external to internal]) - the 750G does the same thing: the device shows up ok in Disk Utility but the volume is grey and shows as an OS volume name. like the 1T I am not able to mount it or do anything other than format it.
So I am at a loss. why can I not copy files to an external drive and put that in the machine internally? this is the way I've done this kind of thing over the years. this is the first time I am doing this with the MBP. what can I do in order to get this to work so I can get all the files on the 750G onto the 1T and work in my MBP?
I know I can leave the 750G in the computer, connect a drive and copy it all over to it. then put the 1T in the computer and copy all the files off the external drive to the 1T. likely this would work. however a) i don't have a large enough external drive to do this with and b) i'd like to understand what is going on here and solve it as i may need to do this in the future.
any ideas?
thanks!

How did you backup your internal hard drive to the external? In order to boot a Macintosh has to be partitioned using the GUID scheme and then formatted as Mac OS extended Journaled. Both operations are performed in Disk Utility. You can clone your drive to to the external using a utility such as Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper. I'm not sure what you expect to accomplish without install discs. When you clone a drive you're making an exact copy. You shoud probably look at calling Apple and requesting a set of original discs or purchase a full install of Snow Leopard at http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

ITunes doesn't launch automatically when iPhone is plugged in.

It used to be, that when I plugged my iPhone into my Mac, iTunes launched automatically. It stopped doing that.
If I launch iTunes myself the iPhone appears and everything works fine. I checked all the settings and asked the guy at the Genius Bar, but no joy. Anyone know what can cause this?

IPad 2 doesn't change orientation when rotated..

I bought an iPad 2 the day it came out, and it worked flawlessly until I updated to 4.3.2. Now if I want to change the screen orientation, I have to turn the screen off, put the iPad in the desired position, then unlock it again. I have the switch set to control orientation, but it is in the unlocked position. Any ideas of should I just restore it?

I am experiencing the same problem to sir BrownK, and I am trying your recommedation but still not work out

Charging Icon shows full while charging when iPhone isn't fully charged

The battery/charging icon in the top right of my iPhone 3G will change to the "fully charged" icon while the phone is charging. However, the phone is not truly fully charged. Why is the icon showing up if the phone isnt even close to being fully charged??

I've had the same problem with 2 iPhones now, first one I had wouldn't charge and then just went completely dead. I had it replaced and guess what, same bloody thing. My phone hasn't been charging since last night and I'm honestly getting sick of it. I'm having this one replaced, my third iPhone in the past 4 months. This is the last one, if anything happens to is I want my money back and to **** with it.

My wake/sleep button doesn't work, and my iphone 4 will not charge so how can i reset it?

i need help

The "Use custom settings for history" selection allows to see the current history and cookie settings, but selecting this doesn't make any changes to history and cookie settings.
Firefox shows "Use custom settings for history" as an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that changes were made.
If all History settings are default then the custom settings are hidden and you see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".
"Never Remember History" means that Private Browsing is active and "Always use private browsing mode" gets a checkmark.
You need to remove the checkmark on "Always use private browsing mode" to leave Private Browsing mode or chose the "Remember History" setting.

Hidden Battery power when iPhone is low on Charge?

Can anyone confirm if this is Fact or Fiction?
I recently found an article on the internet as quoted below and was just wondering if anyone could confirm if it is fact or fiction please.
> Is your mobile phone battery flat ?
>
>
> All mobiles have Hidden Battery Power
>
> To activate, press the keys *3370# (remember the asterisk). Do this when the phone is almost dead.
> Your mobile will restart in a special way with this new reserve and the instrument will show a 50%
> increase in battery life.. This reserve will get re-charged when you charge your mobile next time.
> This secret is in the fine print in most phone manuals. Most people however skip this information without realising.

"> All mobiles have Hidden Battery Power
No they don't.
-> http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/household/cellphones.asp
"The claim that pressing the sequence *3370# will unleash "hidden battery power" in a cell phone seems to be a misunderstanding of an option available on some brands of cell phone (such as Nokia) for Half Rate Codec, which provides about 30% more talk time on a battery charge at the expense of lower sound quality. However, this option is enabled by pressing the sequence *#4720# — the sequence *3370# actually enables Enhanced Full Rate Codec, which provides better sound quality at the expense of shorter battery life.
