My brand new Iphone 5 doesn't vibrate ! any ideas?

Is the silent button on the side pushed up? And could you have turned vibrate off under settings?

Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work.

Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work. I did the reset option using side and home buttons but in vain. Please don't tell me to set up a new device coz its gonna be a hassle restoring apps, emails, contacs...etc.

Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:

My vibrate doesn't work on iPhone 5??

I bought my iPhone 5 the day of release. And since I've had it, the vibrate doesn't work. I've already tried restarting my settings to no avail. My phone says that it's on, but the only two settings I can use are sound or complete silence. Please help!

Have you tried going into settings -> sounds and seeing if they were disabled there?

Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

I accidentally put a passcode lock on my iPhone and I forgot what I set for it, is there a way to take it off without accessing the phone? I have restored my phone but it doesn't work, is there anybody that could help me please?

You can't "accidentally" put a passcode on any iPhone...its a multi-step process. Further, restoring an iPhone will remove the passcode, as the passcode is not included in an iPhone backup.
Are you sure you're talking about the phone passcode & not something else...like the "Restrictions" passcode?

HT4623 i tried to update my phone and it doesn't work.

i tried to update my phone and it doesn't work. Tried restoring from DFU, and other things. I got error message 3194 and have also gotten "this device isn't eligible for the requested build" What do i try now?

If it's stuck on the Apple logo, you'll have to force it into recovery mode and restore it. See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.

My iPhone is acting up again; freezing up during phone calls and now the head phone jack intermittently doesn't work.

I got my iPhone 5 back in February 2013 and for the most part of the year I enjoyed it. Then I started having issues with it. First of all the WiFi randomly quit working. I didn't even update it. So I tried updating it, resetting, and restoring it. While it was under warranty I tried getting the issue fixed, but Apple CS blew me off saying it was accidental damage and I should have gotten Apple Care. This time Verizon covered their *** and replaced the phone for me even though it was out of their 6 month warranty period. I think I posted this experience before.
Now my iPhone is acting up again. It first started freezing up during phone calls and now the head phone jack intermittently doesn't work. Again, resetting, restoring, and updating it did not fix these issues.
<Re-Titled By Host>

The original issue they didn't state exactly why it was Accidental Damage. After running through some troubleshooting, they just stated it was Accidental Damage and that I should file a claim with my insurance, and that Apple Care would have covered it; then closed the request.
I've tried resetting settings, restoring it as new, and that was a no go. When it freezes up during calls I also have to perform a hard reset by pressing and holding both the power and the home buttons to get it functioning at all again(just completely freezes, won't respond to touch or home button.) I noticed that the proximity sensor isn't responding as well, so I have to tilt it away from my ear while in a call to keep from pressing the buttons on the touchscreen with the side of my face. I avoid phonecalls now, and text exclusively.
I don't live anywhere near a Genius Bar so I'm stuck with the online support to Apple. And since I don't have a landline, I get charged for their phone support so I tend not to use it.
Getting two lemons in a row seems coincidental so I'm wondering if it's a bad batch Verizon got then distributed out.

SessionManager doesn't work with new xerceimpl.jar?

Hi,
Does anybody know the solution to the problem below?
The toplink sessionmanager, which loads sessions.xml for database session pooling, doesn't work with new xerce parser(xerceimpl.jar). It is tieing to old xerces.jar parser, which has been upgraded to have more functions.
Thank you in advance.
Praveen

Hi Raanan,
It works with old xerces.jar. But in-order to get new functions from new xerces jars from apache, I got xml-apis.jar, xercesImp.jar. They got modified from old ones. So this is breaking toplink sessions.xml load to work.
Did you face this problem?
Thanks
Praveen

My vibrate doesn't work

i have looked on the internwt on how to fix my vibrate and nothing is working.
it won't work on any setting at all i keep having problems with my blackberry and i've not had it a year.
everyone i know who has a blackberry have had problem but not like mine it doesn't make sense

Have you tried a simple battery pull? While the device is on, remove the battery for 15-30 seconds, reinsert and wait for the device to reboot. This often works for these sorts of issues.
If that doesn't work, the next step is to ensure that your notifications are indeed supposed to vibrate according to your settings. Go to Sounds and then change the sounds associated with your active profile. Make sure that things like Phone Calls, Messages, etc are set to vibrate as desired.
The next step would be to see if its a software issue. In this case, you would want to reload the software on the device using the method described here:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Device-software-for-BlackBerry/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-S...
If none of that works, I would take the phone in for warranty repairs as you may be dealing with a hardware related problem.
I hope this info helps!

IPhone 3GS upgraded to iOS5, vibrate doesn't work

I upgraded my iPhone 3GS to iOS5 a couple weeks back and since then vibrate hasn't worked.
I've checked that vibrate is enabled in Sounds and also checked Notifications.
I managed to get the iPhone to vibrate once after the upgrade, but not since. Even using the silent switch doesn't vibrate the phone anymore, neither does plugging the phone into a power source.
Any ideas?

Hi to the forum. This is my first post - ever!
It's taken me 25 years of Apple equipment purchase and enthusiastic advocation to get to this point.
And what has got me here? 'The GPS on my iPhone 3G has doesn't work'. If you Google this statement you get 12 million hits. It seems to me that's probably 12 million people who have a problem with an Apple product they've purchased.
I've read a lot of the solutions that other users have come up with - dozens of different ones. I've updated the iPhone software as soon as I can, I've been patient, I've given Apple chance to sort it out. I've even gone back to printing out Google maps onto paper (remember 'paper') and taken those out with me in the car to find my way around town.
However - the southern hemisphere summer is coming and I want to use the (totally brilliant) Navionics chart/GPS App on the boat. No chance. According to the iPhone we're in Africa not New Zealand.
So what to do? I can't find any 'official' info from Apple. I've no idea how the politics of these situations work - and I don't care! 12 million hits can't be wrong. Apple needs to tell it's users what is happening (even if they're still working on it), and when we can expect a fix.
Come on Apple, keep us in the loop - we love your products - and we want to keep advocating for you!
PS - this is the best place I could find to have ths little discusion - if anyone has a more direct line to God (err I mean Apple) please let me know!

N900 Water Damage / Vibrate doesn't work

My phone was exposed to water and I read an article to use white rice to soak up the water and hope it works. Well, it works...but the vibrate feature when receiving messages, phone calls on silent, etc...doesn't work. Anything I can do to make it work again? Like a master reset? Or is there nothing I can do in this instance?

Accidents happen with phones and water but it doesn't always mean that all hope is lost. Below is a brief guide as to what you should do if your phone has been totally immersed in water.
1. Take the phone out of the water as quickly as possible.
2. Do not attempt to switch it on as this may cause further damage.
3. Remove the battery as quickly as you can, also remove the memory and sim cards.
4. If dropped in fresh water dry it off with a towel. If dropped in salt water rinse it thoroughly with fresh water. I know it sounds crazy getting it wet again but salt can cause a lot of internal damage such as corrosion. Again dry with a towel. You may also want to rinse it if you dropped it in a toilet.
5. Place the phone, battery and it's wet accessories in a plastic container (like a lunch box) and completely cover it with uncooked rice, use plenty of it. Again this sounds crazy but rice has desiccating properties that help draw the water out of the phone. Do not place a lid on the container.
6. Place the container somewhere very warm and dry for at least 3 days. An airing cupboard is often the ideal place.
7. Do not use a hair dryer directly on the phone to speed up the process. Too much heat can cause even more damage.
This isn't guaranteed to work but many people have successfully revived their phones and retrieved their data using this method.
Keep in mind that your phone is on borrowed time after you do this. Make it your first priority to retrieve any data that you would like to keep. It may only work for a few minutes, days, weeks, months or it may even last years.
You should monitor the phone carefully during charging. If it gets very hot the battery may be damaged and should be replaced.
After any exposure to water you no longer have a warranty as water damage is not covered. Any insurance policies on the phone may also be voided unless you are covered for accidental damage.
A more efficient alternative to rice is silica gel. You most likely won't have enough of the stuff to hand when the accident happens but it is good to use. Silica gel can be bought from electronic wholesalers like this example. Thank you to shuntfield for this information.
Good luck!

My phone's earphone doesn't work which was bought from USA last month,the china apple store didn't accept the free repaired,so what can i do now?

my new iphone5s's earphone doesn't work which was bought from USA last month,probably it was cause by falling down on floor insidentally one day before I came back china , the problem is ,the china apple store didn't accept the free repaire even the phone was bought only one month age, I was so disappointed and realized the iphone 5s is so fragile,although I previous iphone4 which was also bought from USA 4 years age, it also fell down many times, it still works well now. what can i do now? send it back to USA for repairing? if like that,it will take almost two month to finish the all processes,that not only waste the time spent on the way, also waste expense on the expense,the important prlblem is, I can't use the phone during the repairing~ please give me a solution as soon as you can ,thank you very much!

You can send it to someone you know in the US to have them take it in for service or you can get on a plane and take it there yourself. You can not ship it to Apple in the US for service.

New I phone 5 - camera doesn't work

Bought a new I phone 5 and the camera doesn't work. Need help

Camera
Camera is not functioning
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Third-party cases can interfere with the autofocus/exposure feature and the flash (iPhone 4 only); try removing the case if you have image-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center. Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. After recording begins, you cannot readjust focus until you stop recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll. Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
Is the camera app not opening? Or the app will open but the camera won't take pictures?

Phone Software update doesn't work with WiFi

Can someone please help.
I have an unlocked N97Mini. I'm trying to update the software version from 10.something to the currently available 12.something. For some reason my USB chord doesn't work (it only charges the phone, that's it) so I'm unable to use PC Suite. I tried to update the software wirelessly using WiFi but it won't let me do it, everytime I select on Phone Software under Application->SF Update it opens a pop up that says I have to use PC Suite. I uploaded other software through WiFi before such as OVI music, but it won't let me do it for the Phone Software.
Please help. How can I update my Phone Software wirelessly?
Thanks
Andrei

If you get the message that you need to use PC for updating the phone software, the software for your device variant may not yet be available for over-the-air update and you must do it via PC. You can check also if the same thing happens if you type *#0000# and select in this menu Options > Check for updates.
If PC Suite is not working with your device, try installing the latest Ovi Suite version in your PC.
