Hi i would like to know  is it posible the fake chines charger to damage my iphone i lost my charger and i used a fake chines made charger  sinc i conected to that charger  my iphone heated and never work again like  know is that the charger cause damage

hi please hellp i lost my charger  and i used a fake chines charger sinc i conected my iphone to that chines made charger my iphone now does not charge or switch on is that the case of that charger cause all that damage it heated up  a lot please help thank you

went through a couple iphones in two weeks (no joke) had to keep returning to the apple store which is an hour and a half away from my hometown (parents weren't too happy with the amount they spent on petrol!!) first of all i got a replacement iphone because the one i had wasnt playing music, just before my iphone started playing up i had purchased a fake charger online after losing my genuine one, the fake one looked genuine enough. So i proceeded to use the fake charger once i had my replacement to find my replacement iphone wasnt holding charge and turning off itself etc. (after being charged using the fake charger) i returned the replacement iphone and the apple support man at genius desk suggested it could be the charger (i didnt think this could be possible, a charger causing so much trouble) so i blamed apple. got another replacement and i decided to purchase a genuine apple charger (just put of curiousity) iphone is now working fine, keeping battery had no problems. therefore i believe fake chargers may be appealing to buy (as the cost is cheap) but purchasing a genuine one is a small price to pay considering all the trouble i went through!

  • Hi, since I've bought the iphone, my facetime never works, I just can't activate the facetime in settings, when I put it on, after some time, the phone shows the message: activation unsuccesful. Do you guys know what should I do?

    Hi, since I've bought the iphone, my facetime never works, I just can't activate the facetime in settings, when I put it on, after some time, the phone shows the message: activation unsuccesful. Do you guys know what should I do?

    Where are you, what network are you on and where did you get the phone?
    If you are on an unsupported network, Facetime may never be able to activate. If the phone originated in a different country, facetime is probably trying to send an International text message to activate. If you don't have International text messaging, it will fail.

  • Wifi dropping and NEVER working

    I have read many posts on different users having their Wifi working for 5-10 minutes, and suddenly disconnecting, and I have tried all the methods that others have contributed, but somehow it doesn't seem to work for me.
    Here's my issue:  I have an iPad 1, 64gb, with ios5.1.  Now, on the top left of the screen, the Wifi symbol is shown, but I can never get it to connect to the internet.  I have tried bringing it to different places, and the Wifi always works for maybe 10 minutes, and it drops.  When I try and connect it back to the Wifi network, it never works ever again.  For example, I go to Cafe A, wifi connects for 10 minutes, drops.  I try and connect it again, but it doesn't work.  I go to Cafe B, same problem happens again.  Then I go back to Cafe A, and the Wifi will NEVER work again.
    I tried forgetting the netowrking, rebooting the thing for dozens of time, restarting it to factory settings, restoring it, backing everything up and just about a dozen methods, but i never seems to work.  But all the other devices on my house connects perfectly to the Wifi network, so I'm pretty sure it's not my Wifi problem.  Like I said, there's the Wifi symbol on top, but it can never connect...
    Help please?  It's really grating on my nerves, and I haven't been to use my iPad for the past 2 weeks..  ):

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • My iphoto doesn't work, it just keeps loading and never works. what is wrong and how do i get it to load?

    my iphoto doesn't work, it just keeps loading and never works. what is wrong and how do i get it to load?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

    Even though sim inserted correctly will come up no sim and needs to be power reset and will work again. Happens every few days

  • Has anyone ever dropped an iphone in water and its worked again when its dried out?

    I dropped my iphone down the loo! Will it work again when it has dried out?

    Mine took a swim in a pool. Did the rice thing as described by Wjosten above. Got the phone back up and running but lost some pixels on the screen.
    Just know, there is a moisture sensor inside the phone. If you go to the Apple store and they run a diagnostic, the phone will report back that it's gotten wet, thus nullifying your warranty. Doesn't take much for that Sensor to be activated. A good, sweaty workout at the gym gets it's going... Oh, that's if you workout with your phone in your bra, but that's a story for another time. TMI?

  • Bluetooth Disconnected when playback paused and never resume again

    I am using Nokia BH-111 with my Dell Inspiron N4110. I am facing issues from last week that when I paused playback of audio/video, the Audio never resumes. I won't hear any voice at all. I need to turn off the Bluetooth adapter and have to restart it again.
    But it was working fine before that and Nokia BH-111 is also working fine with my other devices. Could you provide some assistance.

    Hi,
    Did you do any changes for your computer? Since your had mentioned that it worked fine before. Please try system restore to roll back to a time when everything worked fine to see if the issue could be resolved.

  • Firefox 9.0.1 keeps hanging once I access a website with video, when I write e-mails etc. If a press ctrl+alt+del, opens a window to confirm closing, and firefox works again. When I close that confirm window, firefox immediately hangs again.

    It stops working if I access websites with videos, and all sort of more complex flash. It I try to write an e-mail, it also stops. I can't do anything. PC keeps working, though. So I press ctrl+alt+del. It opens that window asking if you want to close all the tabs. I notice that firefox start to work again, behind that window. But, once I close the window, it stops again. Sometimes I can close the tab with the video before it hangs again, which can take a few ctr+alt+del's. It doesn't happen with other browsers! It started 1 week ago. Is it an extension? Or a virus (i use avast)? Thank you!

  • How can it be the Mobile Hotspot feature worked, failed, and then worked again?

    I am having a love hate relationship with my Galaxy S3. The latest experience happened when I arrived at the beach expecting to connect to the Internet through a mobile hotspot established on my Galaxy S III; but that was not to be.  When I turned on my Macbook it could not find the mobile hotspot named Cavanaugh established a half hour earlier with help from a Verizon Wireless Sales Consultant, and all devices were allowed to connect. What could cause this inconsistency!
    I went home and as I customarily do I plugged my cell phone into its charger.  The battery had 44% capacity left, I like to recharge to 100% at the end-of-day, so I recharged the cell phone to 100%.  Guess what?  With the cell phone battery fully charged the mobile hot appeared on my notebook, and I connected the notebook to the Internet through the cell phone.
    Has anyone else had a similar experience?  How much battery juice is needed to run mobile hotspot?

    While I am unsure how much battery is "needed" to run the hotspot, the battery WILL drain faster when the hotspot is active. Quite possibly, the phone will deactivate the hotspot when the battery falls below a certain level.
    This is the reason I ONLY have my hotspot turned on when I want to use it. I don't see a reason to have it active when not using it, along with the "possibility" of someone hijacking my signal in order to use my data stream without having to pay for it.

  • TS1277 after installing itunes, my computer won't recognize my cdrom/burner any longer.  Worked  ok before and I have uninstalled itunes and it works again and when I reinstall itunes it won't work again.  I have also went into registry files and deleted

    After installing itunes, my desktop computer doesn't recognize my internal cd rom/burner.  I removed itunes and it works ok and when I reinstall itunes it won't work again.  I went into the windows registry files and deleted the lower filter which is one correction for this and it worked ok until the next itunes upgrade and now it won't work again.  If anyone knows what to do please let me know.  My device manager shows a code "10"

    My device manager shows a code "10"
    That suggests an AFS.sys issue. But we'd better doublecheck.
    Could you post your diagnostics for us please?
    In iTunes, go "Help > Run Diagnostics". (If you're running iTunes 11.0.x you'll need to bring up your menu bar first to see the Help menu.) Uncheck the boxes other than DVD/CD tests, as per the following screenshot:
    ... and click "Next".
    When you get through to the final screen:
    ... click the "Copy to Clipboard" button and paste the diagnostics into a reply here. (Use your Ctrl-V keyboard shortcut to paste.)

  • Spilled soda on macbook, stopped working and now working again?

    So a couple months ago I spilled orange soda on my Macbook air. Its the late 2011 I think.
    It stopped working completely and the batteries were ruined. I took it to geek squad and when they tried to boot it, it said it could not find start up disk.
    This morning I tried to turn it on, and it is working just fine! It isnt running slowly or anything. One of my friends said that there is corrosion though and it will stop working again. is this true? I hate getting rid of my poor mba but if its not going to work I might as well sell it for parts, right?

    The retail side of most resellers likely will not have access to the
    sonic cleaning devices necessary to immerse the parts of the
    computer into after disassembly, nor be willing to do this kind of
    job; but they may know of someone in the business locally.
    Several years ago I sent a computer across the continent (N.A.)
    via the US Post Office, for repairs; the company was one I'd read
    about in the 1990s and they still are in business. They can also
    do much more now than they did back then. They do sonic cleaning
    and can take-apart, repair, etc nearly any portable Apple. However
    my experience is limited with portable Macs, I don't see anyone out
    here in Alaska with equipment or know-how to actually repair them.
    Most only forward them to other States, and add a premium to cost.
    Though I have no affiliation with them, this company still gets good
    reviews and is a repair facility. They also have very many Apple parts.
    If the blue link doesn't function, the place is wegenermedia in SC.

    Hopefully you can find someone qualified to perform the service
    & get your MacBook model returned with a clean bill of health.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Password not working, reset and not working again ...

    Hi I have had nothing but problems today I think my account has been hacked.  Couldn't log in to Skype on PC or iPad kept saying my password was incorrect, though same password I have always had.  I changed my password by having Skype send me a new one to my email.  I activated it and created new password and all good.  IN the middle of a call it shut down suddenly and when I tried to log on again, it said it didn't recognise the password I only just created that had worked already.  Kept trying and still nothing. So I went to create a THIRD password and now skype is saying my email address doesn't exist.  I have had this account for years and they only just sent me a new password to that email address so it certainly does exist.  Left for a few hours and now tried again and it says i have tried too many times today.  I have actually tried to create  new account to be able to use skype.  Can anyone explain what is happening? I am currently scanning for viruses but i really want to be able to use my old account with all my contacts on it rather than start from scratch!  My mother in law is having the same problem with her account so I wonder if it's a virus??  At the same time I have started receiving a bunch of emails from 'skype' in Chinese so I assume this is connected somehow?  Please any ideas on how to fix this?! 

    Have received numerous of the following:  also my account isn't working, passwords not working, can't access anything.  I think it's been hacked.  It is now not even recognising my email address.  Please advise how to fix.  Please note I did not follow any links in any of these emails that have been sent to me.
