How come when I tap the back of my iPhone next to the camera, it sounds like there is a lose piece in inside?

I just got my iPhone so i can't imagine there is anything wrong, but I noticed that when I tap the back of my iPhone next to the camera, it sounds like there is a lose piece in inside. Also, when I put the iPhone down on a desk or table i hear the same sound. Wondering if this is normal?

Hi JRM833,
     That would be enough to make me worry as well. I've not seen (or heard, in this case) that happen on any of my iPhones, or any others that I've been around (friends, family, etc.).
I would say that no, that isn't normal. If you're near one, take it to an Apple store. Or, if you made your purchase at the wireless carrier you've chosen, take it back to them to see if they could help you out.
Best of luck.

    Pressing the Power Button brings up a dialog: "Restart Sleep Cancel Shut down (default button).
    Teddy Mack; are you just giving the Power Button a light touch, or holding it down?

  • I updated my iPod tough 4G to iOS 5 and can no longer access my camera. When I tap the camera icon it goes to a black screen. HELP?

    Camera no longer working in iOS 5 on my iPod touch 4G. I have a black screen when I tap the camera icon. I still have all my photos, but no camara. Any suggestions before I head to the Apple Genius Bar??

    Im having the same problem. I just got the itouch 4g this past sunday and everything was working great. Yesterday and today the camera went black out of nowhere and its black right now. After i turned it on and off it went back on but its doing it again. So i assume its just an iOS 5 bug thats doing this. But is there any talk about fixing this?

    You should take it to an Apple store or an AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) Carefully inspect the hinge joint and make sure there is no debris that you can see, you can try carefully sliding some sticky tape thru the joint to clear any loose stuff out. But this sounds like there might be more going on here, and the hinge is something that you do not want to fool with.

  • How can I turn off the camera shutter sound on an iPhone 6 bought in the U.S.?

    I know some countries don't allow the camera shutter sound to be disabled, but I'm not sure if the U.S. is one of those countries. Is it? If not, can someone tell me how to disable it please?

    Use the mute switch on the side of the phone above the volume buttons.

  • How do I turn off the camera shutter sound everytime something loads?

    I keep getting a camera shutter type sound when on pages like Google, or hotmail, or any "active" page, loading pictures on websites for instance. Sometimes when things are happening rapidly it becomes a distorted cascade of the sound, like a loud chirp or worse. You can turn the sound down using the usual device sound but then, of course you can't listen to any music or anything else for that matter. It's extremely annoying and now that I synchronised my laptop with my desktop they both have the same problem. I've checked all the settings and can't find a way of disabling it. I don't exactly know what is triggering it but it seems to be when something is loading.
    I'm running firefox 18.0.2 on a Mac running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Anything else I can tell you?

    hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

    Have you tried resetting your iPhone?
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
    No data will be lost.

  • TS2972 How come when I do the homesharing quite a bit of my library is missing?

    Many of the songs in my homeshared library are missing. Why is this?

    It has to do with the resolution of the picture you are using for the contact. The lower the resolution, when it is increased to full screen, it pixilates, like any other photo would when it has been zoomed. Contact pictures added from the phone will be full screen, contact pictures added in Outlook will only be thumbnails in the corner.

  • HT4864 How come when I use the automate iCloud setup, does the incoming mail server have a different address then specified by these instructions?

    The IMAP sever that automatically set up is p08-imap.mail.me.com?

    So I guess using Apple Token for authenication is OK, instead of the prescibed Name and Password per the http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864?

  • How to get the camera shutter sound off on iphone 6?

    Since iPhone 6, I can't get the camera shutter sound off by switching the silent button off.
    There are no setting options available either?
    I bought my phone in Japan. May be it is a local requirement.
    Does any one know how to change this?

    According to the following turning off the sound isn't possible in Japan. The ringer silent switch on the side does mute it on my iPhone 5s in the U.S.
    On an iPhone 5, how do I turn off the camera shutter sound?

  • How come, when I add myYahoo! email account to MAIL, after verifying, I always get the "server unavailable. please try again later"

    How come, when I add myYahoo! email account to MAIL, after verifying, I always get the "server unavailable. please try again later"

    THANKS! this worked !!!
    I hit "DELETE THIS ACCOUNT" on my iphone (this is the Yahoo I tried to set up by "picking" it from the list that the iphone5 gives you) and then confirmed to delete everything.
    THEN: while in Mail (still in the Settings Section) I tapped on "ADD ACCOUNT..." but this time tapped on "OTHER" and manually put in my yahoo ID and password and I did not even have to go to the   SMTP or IMAP incomming/outgoing stuff at all. But I checked it out under the "ADVANCE" tab and it was already correct for yahoo. (ALMOST SEEMED TOO EASY)
    Went to my home screen and tapped on MAIL and my yahoo email loaded up just right!
    Now, I have no idea if I have any other issues like if I delete mail on the iphone; does it delete properly on my ipad...etc..etc. but one problem at a time is getting fixed. THANKS!

  • How come when i select a song in my music it plays the song before it?

    How come when i select a song in my music it plays the song before it? i  tried restarting it , could it be because i dropped my phone on concrete, can that screw up my phone , the screen is in perfect condition i only got scratchses on the corners on the left side of my phone , i dont know what to do pls help

    Hi m.cohen1220,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If it is consistently selecting something away from the location of your tap, especially if it's happening in multiple apps, you may have an issue with the display response.

  • My macbook turns off randomly but not completely because when I tap the touchpad it goes to the password screen and I am back to it in seconds. It's really annoying. HELP!!!

    My macbook turns off randomly but not completely because when I tap the touchpad it goes to the password screen and I am back to it in seconds. It's really annoying. HELP!!!

    1. Non volatile random access memory (NVRAM) is where the computer stores user's settings, like time and date, speaker volume, energy saver settings etc.
    2. Reseting NVRAM has no impact on anything on your hard drive, or anything else on the computer.

  • On an iphone 4s, when I tap the phone number in my contacts list instead of calling the number it goes to a "Welcome to mail screen" how do I make it call the number instead?

    On an iphone 4s, when I tap the phone number in my contacts list instead of calling the number it goes to a "Welcome to mail" screen with icloud, Microsoft exchange, Gmail, Yahoo, Aol & Windows Live Hotmail listed beneath. How do I make it call the number instead?

    Never heard of that.  I suspect it thinks that's an email address and you're seeing that screen b/c you don't have an email account setup on your iPhone.
    Assuming the number is valid, try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • How come when you delete a photo in photo stream folder (PC), it is not deleted in the photo stream (iPhone)?

    If you upload a photo in the 'Photo Stream Uploads' folder (PC), it is automatically imported to iPhone (via Wi-Fi). How come when you delete a photo from the Photo Stream folder (PC), it is not deleted in the Photo Stream (iPhone)?? I mean doesn't iCloud automatically update the changes? thanks.

    You cannot delete photos from the photo stream.  You can only log into icloud and in your account, you can delete photo stream and start fresh.  It is rumored that the next upgrade to iOS will allow deletions of single photos from the stream, but not yet.
