Freezing phone and non working keyboard
I just got my first Iphone, its the 3GS. Everything is good with it except that every once in awhile, certain parts of the screen (specifically when using the keyboard) stop working. I woud try and type a certain letter and it wont work, but the others work fine. I went to the ATT store i bought it from and they said to go to an apple store. I dont live close so i was hoping someone can confirm this as an actuall problem or help me fix the problem so i dont have to make the trip.
Have you tired anything to troubleshoot the issue?
If not here are some ideas.
First you can try Apple's troubleshooting assistant:
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/
And then here is Apple's support document for troubleshooting:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1737
If that doesn't help then look into making a trip to the Apple Store where they will probably replace the iPhone if they are unable to fix it. I would highly suggest making an appointment with the genius bar that way you are guaranteed to see somebody for your issue and won't have to wait around for too long.

I downloaded Firefox mobile to my Droid. Connected to computer and followed instructions, using code provided on phone. Did not work. I tried to re-sync phone. It didn't work. I deleted Firefox on phone and reinstalled app. The connected phone to computer to re-sync. Could not get anything to work using"I have an account" tab so opened up another sync account. It didn't work. I deleted app again and tried again and used a third sync account to sync phone with computer. I got nowhere. Completely frustrated with three sync accounts and none working.
Need help to delete all accounts and start over. Can't seem to find a way to do this.
Thanks in advance.
BillColin,
I tried this (opening in Photoshop CS5 and resaving as jpg) as you mention:
The remedy to this problem has usually been to open the image (the one that is having an identity crisis) in Photoshop or another image editor, and simply resave it. You don't need to edit it or rename it or anything--just open and resave.
Re-imported and it does work fix (I get picture1 and picture2 instead of just picture1 for all pictures).
Having said that, I looked at all the file properties I could for:
picture1.jpg (original)
picture1.jpg (resaved in CS5)
To see what changed. All are properties are identical (color depth, pixel size, etc.) except that resaved image is ~20% larger (I saved max file size jpg in CS5).
So original is ~6MB
resaved jpg is ~8MB
So the question - why can't CS5 premiere import these directly (with resaving?) and what is working with the resave that locks up the first time?
These pictures are straight from a Canon 50D, with no editing or resaving - dumped off camera to computer. I can reproduce this error 100% of the time (new project, new folder, import 2 pics) so it isn't something goofy with the way I'm importing - 100% how premiere is handling this.
Very disappointed that I now need to open/resave/rerender each of ~1100 images to simply use them. Given that these jpgs are being produced by a mainstream camera with support image format.
Any thoughts? -
I have an iphone 5. Speaker works but I cannot hear through the apple earbuds. Tried multiple earbuds and none work. But they work in our other iphone 5. Has anyone been able to resolve this without pursuing a replacement ? If so what was the fix?
You're not using a supported carrier. What did you think Apple was going to tell you?
As fizzDripper suggests, contact the SIM card provider. How to make an unsupported SIM work on your phone is not Apple's problem. -

My yahoo e-mail is not pushing to my iPhone4, again. Had this same problem for several weeks in October/November 2011. It's been a problem again for two weeks now. My kids and husband have three other types of smart phones, and none of them have had this problem. I'm NOT impressed. I've seen that others in the iPhone community have also been having this problem. Is Apple doing anything about it?

It's a yahoo issue. Nothing you can do on your phone to fix it. -
I can not connect to the ITunes store. I have updated my apple ID and made sure that everything is set correctly. However, I can not purchase or update any apps no matter what I do. My partner has the same phone and hers works perfectly. I'm not sure how to sort this out. Please help
Thanks
AndyI've been having this problem for weeks and have found no solution to it. There are lots of other people with this issue too if you look back on the boards. I even e-mailed AND called Apple and have had no luck. I tried all the suggestions they gave me and all the ones I found on here- nothing worked. I even uninstalled and re-installed iTunes (boy was that a pain!) and no difference.
The weird part is that I have an old laptop that works and if I buy music with the laptop I can download it with my regular computer buy buying does not work on my regular computer. That tells me it's not a connection issue. I can't get to my account either.
I can't figure out why an issue that has kept so many people from purchasing a product has been ignored! -
Whenever I go to iTunes with my iPod 5th generation 32 gb iPod Touch, running iOS 8.0.2, It tells me that the "Other" category is using up 14.59 gb of data. I have no clue why it says this and I have searched the internet for fixes and none worked. I have tried on a windows and a mac and noticed no change. I have tried restoring to a backup but that didn't help. I haven't had time to do a full restore but I will try if the problem persists.
An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.
What is the Other on my iPhone and How to Remove It
What is "Other" and What Can I Do About It?
Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.
To restore from backup see:

I am looking for a formula to use in a calculated column that calculates the difference between two date/time fields while excluding weekends, holidays and non-working hours
6/1/2010 9:43 AM - 6/7/2010 1:45 PM
Here is the closest that I have gotten; however, this formula gives me a result of 96:
=IF(AND((WEEKDAY([Resolved Date],2))<(WEEKDAY(Created,2)),((WEEKDAY(Created,2))-(WEEKDAY([Resolved Date],2)))>1),(((DATEDIF(Created,[Resolved Date],"D")))-(FLOOR((DATEDIF(Created,[Resolved Date],"D")+1)/7,1))-3),(((DATEDIF(Created,[Resolved Date],"D")))-(FLOOR((DATEDIF(Created,[Resolved
Date],"D")+1)/7,1)*2))*24)
Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated!I don't know how to exclude holidays but i exclude weekends(Sat&Sun)-
IF(ISERROR(DATEDIF([Start Date],[End Date],”d”)),””,(DATEDIF([Start Date],[End Date],”d”))+1-INT(DATEDIF([Start Date],[End Date],”d”)/7)*2-IF((WEEKDAY([End Date])-WEEKDAY([Start
Date]))<0,2,0)-IF(OR(AND(WEEKDAY([End Date])=7,WEEKDAY([Start Date])=7),AND(WEEKDAY([End Date])=1,WEEKDAY([Start Date])=1)),1,0)-IF(AND(WEEKDAY([Start Date])=1,(WEEKDAY([End Date])-WEEKDAY([Start Date]))>0),1,0)-IF(AND(NOT(WEEKDAY([Start Date])=7),WEEKDAY([End
Date])=7),1,0))

Changing working and non-working days
Hi
I am trying to make a permanent (default) change in working and non-working days. I am living in Israel and our non-working days are friday and saturday. I want to configure these as the non-working days so I won't need to do it manually via the change work
time menu.
Thanks
ChenIf you are using project server then you can do it permanent from
PWA --> Server Settings --> Enterprise Data --> Enterprise Calendar then
You can configure either your stranded calendar or create a new calendar in which you can make Sunday to Thursday as working days and Friday and Saturday as non working days.
You have to do it manually. There is no tool available which will do the same for you.
Where as if you are using Microsoft Project professional stand alone then for every plan (MPP file) you have to do it.

Lync 2013 call forwarding (working and non-working scenario)
Hi guys!
We are trying to solve a non-working scenario in Lync 2013 voip calling.
SCENARIO 1 that does not work:
Person A with a mobile phone calls Person B who's telephone number is not located on Lync SIP TRUNK. Person B answers the call and then he wishes to transfer this call to Person C. He call Person C until he hears call ringing tone from him
and then he transfer this call to him. When Person C answer the call he does not hear Person A and call get's disconnected after cca. 20seconds.
SCENARIO 2 that does work:
Person A with a mobile phone calls Person B who's telephone number is not located on Lync SIP TRUNK. Person B wishes to transfer this call to Person C who's number is located on Lync SIP trunk. In this scenario he first wait that Person C
answer/accept his call, then he transfer call from Person A to him. This way Person C is able to hear Person A.
Anyway how to figure it out if this is a problem on provider side or on Lync 2013 server side?
with best regards,
bostjancRefer support wasn't set to none.
If we change it to none, and restart Mediation service, unfortunatelly there are no differences.
We have also tried editing: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Lync Server 2013\Mediation Server\MediationServerSvc.exe.config
FROM:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<runtime>
<generatePublisherEvidence enabled="false"/>
</runtime>
</configuration>
TO:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<appSettings>
<add key="20.20.20.20.ReferredBySupported" value="true"/>
</appSettings>
<runtime>
<generatePublisherEvidence enabled="false"/>
</runtime>
</configuration>
But that didn't do anything useful.

When I bought my iPhone 6, the phone was great, but now the phone has given me many problems. I’ve gone to the Apple Store 5 times already with the same problem and every time they just give me a new phone. My first problem was that the phone stopped charging. I took it to the Pentagon City Apple Store in Arlington, VA and my phone was given a diagnostic. After the diagnostic, my battery was said to be good and my phone was then replaced. After my phone was replaced, the second phone would drain fast and go from 100% to 20% in about 2 to 3 hours of light to regular usage (web surfing, facebook, spotify, soundcloud) while connected to Wifi and the battery would charge very slowly. After about a week of this, I returned the phone, and told the “Apple Geniuses” at the store about the problem and was given a diagnostic and a new phone.
Every time I go, I am told about closing apps out (which I always do), turning location services off until I need them (which I do), and turning the screen light brightness down (which I turn more than halfway down). The problem of the battery draining fast and the slow charging persisted with the third phone and I eventually took the phone back to a new Apple Store in Towson, MD yesterday. A diagnostic was run on my phone and I was given a new phone and a new charger. My phone worked perfectly like when I originally purchased it. Then later last night it stopped charging just like my first phone did. I took it back today, a diagnostic was run on my phone, and I was given a new phone. Every time I went to a store, I was told by the “Apple Geniuses” that this was the first time that they heard about this problem, which I found hard to believe because I heard at least 30 different people come in with similar problems each time I was in the store. When I left the store today my phone charged for the 1st 30 minutes. However, I took the phone off the charger to make a call and now the phone will not charge again.
After talking to a few people on message boards, I am convinced that the problem is a virus within the IOS software update around the 8.1 through the 8.3 release. I want to know if there is a way to go back to the 8.0.1 software? That way, I don’t keep having the same problems. I have had every iphone since the iPhone 4, and have been pleased with the product thus far, except for my current problems. However, if the problem cannot be taken care of expeditiously I will be forced to go to buy a Droid. This is very time consuming having to spend 1 to 2.5 hours in the store and is costing me money because of gas, 20 to 25 minutes driving there and 20 to 25 minutes driving back home each time and having to pay to park when I go to the one in Arlington, Virginia.adkennon wrote:
And maybe you don't talk to too many people but I've been on many forums on different websites where people have had similar problems and a lot of people in the store were having battery problems where they were draining too fast. What I learned is that all the people who did not download the updates are good. There phone is working the same. The people who have, they're having battery problems
I have downloaded every update and my battery life is better than any previous iPhone I have ever owned. I see posts from hundreds of people every day, and this is not a commonly reported problem. While there are a few random reports of battery problems, it is no more than I have seen for any other model or any other version of iOS in almost 8 years. Usually problems of rapid battery drain can be traced to bad apps (FaceBook is the worst offender) or corrupt data being synced from iCloud or other sources (gmail, Windows Live, Yahoo, etc).
The simple test is to restore the phone as New. Do not create any email accounts. Do not install any apps. Do not enable FaceTime or iMessage. Do not enable Twitter or any other social networking app. Use it for a day and check the battery usage. You will find that it is working well.
And also see this: http://www.overthought.org/blog/2014/the-ultimate-guide-to-solving-ios-battery-d rain. It is the best treatise I have seen on the subject of battery usage.
