Hey guys, my iphone screen locks and sometimes it even prompts to be turned off. It's as if the buttons are stuck, but it doesn't feel like they are. Anyone got any clues on how to fix it?

Hey guys, i am having a little problem with my iphone 5 running on ios 7.1.1. My screen keeps locking and unlocking by itself and sometimes even prompts to power off. It makes it look like the power button is stuck but its not, this started after the phone hitting the floor some days ago. Kindly help me resolve this problem

Probably a hardware problem due to the fall. To rule out a software issue, set it up as new device, explained here:

TS4036 My iPad states that "This iPad hasn't been backed up in 3 weeks. Backups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi. I cannot turn off my iPad, click on the "OK" button and the message doesn't disappear.

How do I get my iPad to back up when I can't get the alert off my screen, can't turn it off ?

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

My iPhone 4 is 3 years old, and recently the Flash will only work WHEN it wants to... Anyone got any ideas what I need to do?

My iPhone 4 is 3 years old, and recently the Flash will only work WHEN it wants to... Anyone got any ideas what I need to do? Does it need to be repaird in an Apple store? if so does anyone know roughly how much it would be? Or would a simple Restore work?
Thank you in advance for replies

Take it to an Apple store. Most likely you will have to get a replacement for which you will be charged the replacement fee.
Rice only absorbs water. But it cannot prevent damage to the device.

Importing vinvl albums via garage band have to import tunes individually .tunes willnot recombine into one album. I understand that it is because data available on cd's is not present on vinyl..any clues on how to fix this?

mac version 10.9.4.
importing vinyl albums via garage band. Have to import tunes individually as tunes will not retain individusl otherwise. trouble is they will not rejoin as one album in iTunes.I understand it is because data available on cd's is not on vinyl imports . Any clues on how to fix this?

"Have to import tunes individually as tunes will not retain individusl otherwise." -- I don't understand this sentence.
iTunes will not assign track names to items imported from vinyl. You will have to label the files yourself in the Get Info window. As long as you give all the tracks on an album the same album information and the same artist information they should group together. if the artists differ then you need to give all the tracks one common album artist (often "Various Artists")in addition to individual track artist.

Hello, skifmli
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are unable to sync your iPhone and receive an error. I was start with restarting iTunes and your computer. Once this is done, test the results by attempting a sync. If the issue persists, go through the troubleshooting steps in the article below.

You meant iTunes 11.1.2?
Try disable anti-virus and firewall and try again. You can switch back on after you've finished.

There are no user serviceable parts in an iPhone. Since you
made an unauthorized repair to your iPhone, you will have to
seek assistance elsewhere.
Google or ifixit.com may provide some direction, but you can
get no help here per Terms of Service. Sorry to tell you this,
but it is what it is.

Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.5 Install Error: "Error applying transforms please ensure specified transform paths are valid". Any ideas on how to fix this?

I had Acrobat Standard 9.5 on a laptop that broke. Adobe Acrobat Standard is paid for and all I need. I had to get a new PC (Windows 8.1) and I did downloaded Standard 9.5 but when I went to install it the installer gave me an “Error applying transforms please ensure specified transform paths are valid”. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Rahul,
No error numbers other than the message I mentioned previously.
I tried the transforms repair and it reported no Acrobat product (correct, none yet installed) or no administrative privileges (I am the administrator and have done previous administrative actions).
When I unzip the Acrobat file this is what is in the setup ini file:
[Startup]
RequireOS=Windows XP
RequireMSI=3.0
RequireIE=6.0.2600.0
[Product]
msi=AcroStan.msi
Languages=1033;1031;1036
1033=English (United States)
1031=German (Germany)
1036=French (France)

[Windows XP]
PlatformID=2

MinorVersion=1

Thoughts?
Thanks again,

On your iPad - go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Load Remote Images>On. Try that first.
You can also try a reset. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Quit the mail and all other apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Any work you do in Lightroom is in the catalog. It is impossible to use Lightroom without a catalog.
In addition, your photos are filed in a specific location, which is determined when you import the photos (this may be a location you have specified or it may be the default location chosen by Lightroom).
So ... unless you specifically choose to delete your photos, your photos have not been deleted. To find them, open Lightroom and select File->Open Recent and select each catalog shown there until you find the one with your 170 photos.
And now ... a word to the wise: as gvb279 and Keith said, you absolutely need to stop doing whatever it is you are doing and learn the basics of Lightroom. You are clearly in need of such basic understanding. In addition to the links given above, there are many valuable instructional tutorials here: Getting Started with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 | Adobe TV

2. restart the ipad by holding down the on and home button and use the slider
3. update the firmware of the router

IPhone 4 froze and can't connect to iTunes or turn off.

My iPhone 4 froze and wont connect to iTunes due to an invalid response recived from the device. I already tried Apple support but I can't exactly call them when my phone is froze and wont work, now can I? It's stuck on the unlock screen with the slider bar all the way to the right. Then it just died. And I can't get it to turn off or anything.

Try restoring your phone.
