I cannot turn my phone off. The button doesn't seem to work.

My model MC637B iPhone 3 won't turn off. Suggestions have been made that I press the Hold and Power Off button simultaneously but that just takes me to Voice Control. Have recently travelled by plane and had to leave it switched on but in Airplane mode. I've not tried Reset but not sure if this would help. I've only had the phone a few weeks, so perhaps I ought to return it to the store.
Any ideas would be much appreciated

The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to FP requireing an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I fould a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

  • Help!!  iPhone 4S Cannot Turn On Wi-Fi.  The button is gray (setting is shown as "off") and does not allow me to turn it on.

    My iPhone 4S will not allow me to turn on wi-fi.  The wi-fi on / off button in the settings menu is stuck in the off position.  It is gray color and is inactive.  Meaning that it will not allow me to turn wi-fi on and off.  It is stuck in off only. 
    My phone has the latest iOS 6.0.1 installed.
    I've tried resetting everything, I've tried hard reset, nothing works. 
    Any help would be appreciated.

    A hard reset will not resolve this issue. Attempt to restore the device as new (not from a backup) using itunes on a computer. If it still happens on your newly restored device, it's a hardware issue and the device would need to be replaced

  • My apple ID is correct on my App page but when I try to update my Apps it has an incorrect Apple ID so I can't sign in to update my apps.  I have tried signing out and signing back in, I have turned my phone off, the settings is correct too.

    I cannot update my apps in the app store because it asks me to sign in using an incorrect username account.  The username in settings-general-apps is correct and the username on the App store page is correct.  The only place it is incorrect is when I try to update my apps.  How do I update the username when trying to update apps?

    I had the same thing happen today on my wife's phone.  I couldn't find any answers on the support site and of course I could not get any help from Apple since my phone was old.  I kept digging and figured out how to fix the problem.  I opened the app store app and signed out of the old id and then signed back in using my new id.  It looks like this may have fixed the problem.

  • Picture within the picture doesn't seem to work

    Has anybody encountered the same issue ?

    In fact it works with my old projects but not on the one created with imovie 10,0

  • Scale clips using the timeline- doesn't seem to work well?

    I had been scaling my clips (200%) using the effect control panel, and decided it would be a couple less clicks to simply change the property to "Motion:Scale" in the timeline and drag the bar on the clip up to scale it- but it's strange, because if I drag it all the way up (600 units is the highest) the clip is scaled by 150%. What's the thought behind this? I mean, how can I use this feature to scale the clip in an intuitive way? Ideally, wouldn't dragging the bar to 200 scale the image by 200%? Is this simply not what that feature is for? What WOULD someone use this feature for if not this?

    Yeah, me too! I also find that using multiple interface elements to complete one repetitive task is silly. If I am already using the timeline to place clips, why not also use it to scale them by a precise amount? The feature appears to be there. I am wondering about how or if it was intended to be used. Any insight from those who use the Motion:Scale feature in the timeline?

  • HT1237 Trying to update my Macbook Pro 6.2 but the firmware doesn't seem to work.

    Trying to update the EFI version 6.2 for Macbook Pro but it won't install. Complaining that it isn't for this computer. Checked the systems info and everyting.

    I don't see a EFI 6.2 mentioned at the page you reference - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237.
    Which model MacBook Pro do you have? If it's a 6,2 MBP, then you'd need the mid-2010 update (if you really need it) and that would be EFI 2.6.
    Go back to the page and see what I'm writing about. It may be that your machine is simply not in need of the EFI update.

  • Why does my internet stop working until I turn my phone off?

    My internet will stop working, like things won't load. I have to turn my phone off and back on and then it works just fine...for several hours until it stops again. Today it has done it three times.

    You're better off going to an Apple store.  Sprint doesn't handle warranty service on the iPhone.  In any case, no matter to whom you bring the phone is either going to ask you to restore the phone, or they will do so during the evaluation.
    What is your reluctance in restoring the phone?

  • When I turn my iPhone horizontally, the screen doesn't also turn

    When I turn my phone horizontally, the screen doesn't turn.

    Bring up Control Center by swiping up from the bottom of the screen near the home button.  Make sure the rotation lock is not locked.  It is in the upper right corner of control center (a circular arrow around a padlock).

    Hey Posada143, You can still try the rice thing, but do not expect much, as roaminggnome has stated. The rice only works if you do it ASAP and leave the iPod off-- do not attempt use, turn on or charge until it is completely dried out. This is probably academic at this point but remember this for the next time: The drying can take 10 days. You put the uncooked rice and iPod in a sealed bag, change the rice every couple of days. This creates a low humidity environment and draws the moisture out of the iPod, but it takes time. Turn your iPod on to earlier, and you run the risk of shorting out, damaging the components inside. Even if done correctly it can spotty. If you do get the iPod to work (and this may require Resetting, Restoring or attempting to place it in DFU recover mode) the first thing you do is make backups, because you never know how long it will continue to work. As for your pictures, if you can't get your iPod to work, you can try data retrieval companies, however; there is no guaranty it will work and it tends to be very expensive. In the future get in the habit of as making backups, because you just don't know. And invest in and use a water tight case. Hope this helps, Good luck. Cheers.

    I can't turn my phone off. The button is stuck.

    Do you have a case on the iPhone? It could be interfering with the button operation.
    If that isn't it, you'll have to setup service.
