  • Why does my iPhone 5 freeze and shuts off?

    I replaced my iPhone 5 recently because of a lock button issue but now this new phone freezes! I can lock my screen but when I press any other button the screen will not light up again so I have to reset it. Is this something I should take into the store or just live with it? I have three months warranty.

    Hello ctraver0609,
    Sorry to hear that your iPhone is unresponsive at times.  I recommend reviewing the following tutorial when you are experiencing unresponsiveness on your iPhone:

  • HT5868 why does my iphone KEEP asking if I trust this computer? I thought it was a onetime thing per computer?

    Why does my iPhone KEEP asking if I trust this computer? I thought it was a onetime thing per computer? I plug my iPhone 4s into the computer and every time I tell it to trust this computer, but a hour later if I plug in again, I have to say trust again... bug? Setting issue? Help?

    This helped me. Fix #1 is something Apple doesn't ever suggest to you.
    My specific problem was somehow my Apple Mobile Device USB Driver got turned off and moved and maybe even uninstalled, but after hours of struggling, this site helped tremendously.
    Furthermore, I could connect my iPhone to my computer but not into iTunes. It would only let me go to access pictures on my iPhone and that's all.
    Best of luck to anyone trying to figure out their problem.

    why does my iphone keep turning off when i put my pass code in

    Hi ManiPictures,
    If your iPhone shuts down unexpectedly during use, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - 
    If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it - Apple Support
    As your iPhone's operating system is already up to date with iOS 8.1.1, follow the last instruction - 
    If you still see this issue after updating, contact Apple Support.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Why does my iPhone keep notifying me of upcoming birthdays on Facebook, I can't stand it. How do I get this off?

    Why does my iPhone keep posting notices about upcoming birthdays from fb? How do I get rid of it?

    It's all coming from Facebook.
    Either a notification is turned on or somehow these "events" have been synced to the calendar.
    The "how to fix" would depend on the notification.  If it's coming from the Facebook app, again, fix the notifications in the settings for your facebook account.  Since you're also getting emails, I believe this is where the notifications are coming from.
    If they are coming from the calendar app, then either change the notifications for each event or delete the events.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?

    Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?
    The screen isn't broken because it works after i turn the device off and back on, but after it goes black once, it's only white again.
    But it takes the touches although it's only white, because I can answer my phone when I slide my finger on the bottom of the screen, eventhough there in not the button to see.
    This is so weird. I have already done everything I can think of that might help. But I cannot think of anything that might be causing it, because nothing has happened to the device.

    Let me know if I should start a new discussion instead of opening a new topic here.
    My wife's iPhone is the same vintage as mine 3Gs, but has never had the battery problem.  Its affliction instead is that it cannot detect WiFi networks unless it is quite close to the source.  Often, when my iPhone not only detects but shows a maximum cells connection with a network, hers cannot detect the network at all.  In contrast, her iPhone seems to detect ourcellular carrier just as well as mine does.
    Is there any help for this affliction?

  • HT1320 why does my iPod classic freeze up when i plug it in to my computer

    why does my iPod classic freeze up when i plug it in to my computer

    It's not a "fix," actually.  If that is a 4th gen iPod connected using USB, you need to do what it says and plug it in to the white square power adapter that originally came with those models.  Later Apple power adapters should work; third-party adapters may or may not work.  It has something to do with voltage.  The USB connection to computer does not provide the required voltage (although it's obviously fine for normal syncing and charging).
    If that iPod is connected to a FireWire port, it apparently provides the required voltage, because that step does not come up during the Restore.  That model was a transition between iPod connecting to FireWire and connecting to USB.  Earlier models required FireWire.  Later models only used USB.
    If you don't have an adapter, and there is an Apple Store nearby, I guess you could take it to the store's Genius Bar.  I'm sure they have a power adapter there, to complete the Restore.  (Just don't let them re-do the Restore on a Mac, if you use a Windows PC. Different storage formatting.)

  • Why does my iphone loss WIFI connection when I leave the room? When other mobile devices stay connected?

    Why does my IPhone loss WIFI connection when I leave the room? When other mobile devices stay connected?
    I can not send text messages to other IPhones if I do not have wifi or 3G on, the texts are sent as emails.

    Hey Linders1987,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that you are experiencing issues with Wi-Fi on your iPhone 5. The following resource may provide a solution:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/TS1398
    Wi-Fi disconnects or signal strength is less than expected
    Move closer to the Wi-Fi router (access point).
    Check for sources of potential interference.
    Remove any case, stand, or other accessories from your iOS device and see if signal strength improves.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Note: This will reset all network settings including
    - previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
    - recently used Bluetooth accessories
    - VPN and APN settings
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Z30 freezing and shutting down

    I am on my 2 nd z30 in 2 weeks and they have both had a problem with freezing and shutting down, sometimes in mid use and sometimes on its own, can anyone?

    Hello soggy001
    Welcome to http://supportforums.blackberry.com
    Make restarted the z30?
    If your problem evidences the persistence
    Apply a hard reset keep the power button for 30 seconds.
    Regards.
    I recommend you make a reload of the BlackBerry OS Link
    Connect your z30 and run BBLink
    Then go to preference and press the reload option software
    Let the process do all your work, and then you start setting your BB
    And load your backup.
    And let us know if your problem evidences the persistence.
    You must have the latest version of the BlackBerry Link installed.
