Even more issues after installing 3.1 update.  What to do.

HI there,
It would seem that since I have installed 3.1 my iPhone 3Gs 32GB white is acting very strange. Heres my story...
I have noticed the following behavior since the install. Sound randomly not working. Home button randomly not working.
Have done a Restore
Have removed all my applications thinking maybe an app was not compatible with the 3.1 update and therefore was causing the problems.
... still noticed home button issue even after removing all apps.
... sound issue happened once but seems OK now.
I have read other postings about these two issues. It would seem others are experiencing the same problems. However, I found no fix for it. That is why I thought it might be an app interfering.
As I said it still happens at random times but lately it has been working fine so I am wondering if it was an app I had installed.
Just to add some history, this is my 2nd iphone as I had a problem with my 1st one. The one I am currently using was sent to me by my Wireless provider and it was refurbished. So I am wondering if the randomness of the home button was the reason this iphone was returned in the first place. And the problem is reoccurring. Or is it just consequence that it is happening now after I installed the 3.1 update.
I have made an appointment at my local Apple store(genius bar) for them to have a look at it, however my luck is when I go the phone will be working fine and they will not do anything. The phone is not three months old so I fall within the 90 days warranty and I just purchased the AppleCare for iPhone as backup. I am hoping I will get a new iPhone to replace this one because it was refurbished.
So my question is
Do you think it was an application that was causing the issue or could it be a hardware problem with the button? Is it known fact that some iPhone apps are not 3.1 compatible and can cause issues?
Thanks and I look forward to your replies.

Possible but the Apple store visit is the right way to go.

  • Will not start even in safe boot after installing latest camera update

    MacBook Pro will not start even in safe boot after installing latest camera update.
    I started my machine and did a software update. Only the camera update needed. So installed and when required I pressed restart. It restarted and did install. Then restarted again. I expected to get to the login screen and it turned itself off. Tried three more times. Each time shutting off. I unplugged everything, and pressed start waiting for log in window. No it shutdown before the log in window. I then tried safe mode and that did not work either on three more occasions.

    I have managed to resolve some issues. I can now restart the machine via a CD boot. If I do cmd C into something like tech tool pro, then restart from that disks menu it restarts every time.
    If I try a safe start it shuts down. If I try a normal start it shuts down. I have managed to repair permissions and that cleared up some start up permissions but with no improvement to the boot problem. The only way to load is via the cmd-C boot option. Any other ideas?

  • My mbp (mid 2010) is running extremely slow after installing some mavericks updates on May 22nd.

    My mbp (mid 2010) is running extremely slow after installing some mavericks updates on May 22nd. Earlier I thought this behavior is due to spotlight indexing but it finished after 3 days. I deleted all caches from library. But no luck, still running extremely slow. I checked activity monitor for cpu usage, it shows above 90% is idle. The memory usage always shows PM - 4 GB, Memory Used 3.96 GB, VM - 4 GB, Swaped used 0 bytes, App Memory 1.82 GB, File Cache 1.44 GB, Wired Memory 480 MB.
    Thanks in adavnce for help.

    Was it the combo updater that was installed or the OS X 10.9.3 update. There is a difference.
    MORE INFO ON WHY RUNNING COMBO FIXES ISSUES
    Apple updates available from the Software Update application are incremental updates. Delta updates are also incremental updates and are available from Apple Downloads (software updates are generally smaller than delta updates). The Combo updates contain all incremental updates and will update files that could have become corrupted.
    Combo updaters will install on the same version as they're applying--no need to roll back or do a clean install. So if you think you've got a borked 10.8.4 install from a regular update, just run the 10.8.4 Combo Updater on that system.
    "Delta" updaters can only take you from one version to the next. For example: 10.9.1 to 10.9.2. If somehow the 10.9.2 is missing something it should have, and that something isn't changed between 10.9.1 and 10.9.2 it will still be stale after the delta update.

  • Issues after installing Mavericks

    I am having a ton of issues after installing macericks on wed evening, on my MBP 15" 2.5 GHz i7 with 8GB of memory,
    I have a task com.apple.internetaccouts, and com.apple.MailServiceAgent, taking upwards of 100% CPU at time and the fan will go full speed, and earlier today i had a msg come up that i had run out of usable memory and the sytem had paused programs, I have restarted a few times and still the same things are coming up and the system has become really slow.
    would think that with this system not being that old, that i should not be having these types of issues, if there is something that someone could lead me to ths casue i thnk you
    Thanks

    Had this issue again today on my wife's iMac.  This was after the Mail.app update that was recently released.  I now have messed with this issue enough that I believe I have figured it out.
    I used to have a plugin for Mail called HTTPMail that was used to access Hotmail prior to them having POP/IMAP.  It seems that removing the account from Mail left some residual account details in the ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Accounts.plist file.  Mavericks Mail.app chokes on this account detail and starts duplicating it numerous times.  That's why the Accounts.plist file grows so large.
    If you open the Accounts.plist file in a text editor (TextWrangler would be my suggestion), find any <dict> entry that points to services.msn.com in any way and remove all those <dict>...</dict> entries, it should resolve the issue.  Warning though - I had to delete hundreds of entries so it took a while to do.  Once I finished it though, my wife's e-mail has been working fine.

  • After installing the latest updates, my iMac will constantly crash and reboot.

    After installing the latest updates for Mac OS X yesterday, my iMac constantly crashes and reboots. It will only boot properly in safe mode. Even when starting with command+R for recovery the kernel crashes. I have had this iMac for about 3 years and never had an issue until last night, when this problem started and it seems to have gotten worse over night. I already tried the <option><command><R><P>, but it seems that that made it worse as well.

    Hi mcclausky, you may need to manually remove a policy setting from the registry. You also should scan for malware that might have created this problem.
    This article lists scanning and cleaning tools other Firefox users have found helpful: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
    To check your Windows registry for policy settings that might affect Firefox or other programs, I suggest consulting a Windows forum or Microsoft's forums. For example:

  • Issues after installing Classic on OS 10.4

    Background and System
    I have a Power Mac G3 350Mhz Rev 2 Blue and White, 512MB, 40GB, DVD ROM
    running 10.4.9 installed from Retail DVD. Firmware up to date. 2x 20 GB partitions formatted as Extended
    Prior to this issue OS X has been running well.
    Issue:
    After installing OS 9.2.1 to second partition OS X will now not boot up from DVD nor it's partition
    Solutions tried:
    I wanted to install a Classic environment so used a Retail OS 9.2.1 Bootable CD and did a full install to the second partition.
    After the install finished and the system restarted, set on the OS X (Partition1) for start up the system hangs right after the Apple "Chime". with no signal to video card
    Attempted to then boot from OS 10.4 DVD but this does not get detected when holding "c" down for boot up from CD option. This worked perfectly before.
    Have run OS 9.2.1 Disk Aid Verify and both partitions are ok. The system will boot from the 9.2.1 CD and partition but anything to do OS X now will not work. I also tried an Ubuntu 6.06 Live CD but this will not now boot either.
    Checked firmware and tried to re run firmware update and this advised my firmware was up to date.
    Any other suggestions?
    Thanks

    The only thing I can think of is that when you installed the 10.4.9 OS you didn't option to install OS 9 drivers.

  • Having issues after installing Essbase V9.3.1,configuring the SQL interface

    I am having issues after installing Essbase V9.3.1 and configuring the SQL interface. we are using UNIX/AIX box for our Essbase server and UDB DB2 9.1 SP6 as our SQL Interface.

    Can somebody tell me whether .odbc.ini needs any correction or what else should I do to correct the issue and able to work thru using SQL interface? Appreciate any help provided in this regard. Thanks,

    I had similar errors when first setting up the SQL interface. Are you on a 64 bit operating system on the essbase server? If so Essbase needs to use the 32 bit odbc driver, not the default 64 bit driver.
    The 32 bit driver is still available here SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe <-----This is the 32 bit (Use)
    The Administrative tools by default uses system32\odbcad32.exe <----This is the 64 bit (Don't Use)
    Once I opened the 32 bit driver interface directly and set it up the errors went away.

    I'm having this issue as well only with a little different twist I guess. I'm transferring the iWorks applications from my Macbook Pro 3,1 with Lion to a new MBP 10,1 running Mountain Lion. I transferred the apps over using DropCopy since the older MBP doesn't have AirPlay. Applications show up but crash upon opening. This is the first install so there are no previous plist, versions or such to delete. All three crashed upon opening every time until I just had to have Keynote and purchased again - although Apple agreed to refund that purchase since my previous version quit working. Any ideas since I don't have any previous plist/versions to delete? Thanks in adavnce for any help you can offer.

  • An internal error has occurred:  ?:0: attempt to index a nil value after installing LR5.5 update and trying to play or preview slideshow

    An internal error has occurred:  ?:0: attempt to index a nil value after installing LR5.5 update and trying to play or preview slideshow. Never had this problem before. I went to forums and see that this is a problem with previous versions and this only occurred after installing lastest update.

    Jeannine,
         If you follow the advice of the previous poster Julie Kmoch and then gradualy add presets back in one at a time you might be able to find the one that is causing the issue. I may be guessing, but I believe the issue has something to do with either an incompatible Preset setting (eg a older preset in newer version of LR) or a corrupt Preset.
    Say you bought LR2 and imported a bunch of Presets from the internet, cuz 'Hey these effects are cool and I don't have to recreate the wheel', and then you upgraded to LR3 (not a clean install) and now one of the Presets that calls a certain slider setting or value that is different in LR3 doesn't work anymore. This might be why it throws the error, but again I am just speculating.
    Location of LR Preset folder in Windows Vista/ Windows 7
    C:/Users/<YourUserName>/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Lightroom/Develop Presets
    If you do not see the folder AppData, you may need to change the settings in Windows Explorer to 'Show Hidden Files and Folders'. To do that in Windows Vista/ Windows 7, open a Windows Explorer window, Click on Organize, then Foler and Search Options. Then click on the View tab and select the option button next to Show hidden files, folders and drives.
    Hope this helps a bit,
    Glenn

  • Is there any fix for the bluetooth connectivity issue after most recent OS update?

    Seems to be a common problem particularly with bluetooth headseat connectivity. Any ideas?

    There is no bluetooth connectivity issue after the recent OS update. There may be a problem with your phone, which may or may not be related to the update. A "common problem" looks like this in the forums:
    I haven't seen any threads on BlueTooth with over 1.4 million views and over 12,000 replies, or even any vaguely close. For any problem that someone has there is bound to be someone else amoung 150 million users who have it. That doesn't make it a "common problem."
    If you tell us what the problem is specifically and what you have done so far to try to resolve it someone can probably help you.

  • After installing the yesterday update for Nightly Firefox 11.0a1 x64(!), i had to reboot my system, could someone pls confirm the reboot was needed and not just me(my system)?

    I ask this cause i never had to reboot my computer after installing an Firefox update, but then again i never used a x64 version before. Thanks.

    10.8.5 is the lates ML edition.  I use TM and also carbon copy cloner as my second backup.  If I were you and you have a TM backup prior to Mavericks I would try another restore at bootup.  You should erase your drive first in that process using disk utitlites and then use TM to put back you apps and files.  The other choice is to do an internet recovery and then use TM to restore your apps and files.  That should fix the permissions issue.  I did the same thing and all was OK including getting my original iPhoto progam (9.4.3), iphoto11 and photos back.

  • My iPhoto keeps crashing after installing the latest update, can't do anything!

    My iPhoto keeps crashing after installing the latest update, can't do anything! It used to crash when importing but now I'm at the point where I open the software and after 2 seconds it crashes (nothing connected either). What to do? Can't access any photos

    Try this:  launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If you can create a new library and import some test photos then the problem lies with your original library. 
    If that's the case make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    If iPhoto crashes while trying to create a new library then try this:
    Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    If that fails to help a reinstall of iPhoto is indicated. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/  folder,
    Click to view full size
    Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally and apply all relavant updaters.
    P.S.  If you're still running Tiger, 10.4.6, then the above may not apply.  If you're running a newer system you should update your profile so we have a better idea of where you're at.
