IPhone 3G (v3.1) Stops Responding - Multiple Daily Restarts Required

Since the upgrade to version 3.1 of the iPhone software, my iPhone3G FREQUENTLY and randomly ceases to communicate. No in-bound or out-bound calls, texts, internet, mail - nothing! I have missed several critical phone calls, since the upgrade! No visible evidence of communication loss - carrier signal appears strong as normal. I find that I am having to restart my phone - at minimum - 3-4 times per day. Very troublesome and highly irregular for an Apple product!
Can anyone help!? Come on Apple Tech folks, can't we get this fixed already??

A few days later.
Problem has recurred a number of times.
About 30% of the time a hard reset does the trick.
To avoid the problem I've set "Auto-Lock" to "Never" and "Passcode Lock" to "Off".
I'll see about returning it under warranty (unfortunately not purchased in country of above, fortunately not restricted to any carrier).

  • PSE10 stops responding, shutdowns and restarts

    When my PSE10 stops responding, as it frequently does, it does not pay to wait.  Even if it finally responds, I have to shut down my computer before I can access the app and begin work again.  Has anyone else had this experience and if so what did you do about it?

    See if this solution helps:

  • Router stops responding, have to restart computer connection

    When our computers use a lot of bandwidth the router soon stops responding. Network monitors on computers report 0b/s download and around 50b/s upload rates. We have to restart the connection from the computers.
    Phenomena is consistent with 4 different laptops, one running ubuntu, others Windows.
    Our computers never loose connection on other networks.
    I tried many different router settings, including factory defaults, I always get this problem.
    Situation is unbearable. I ended up running a 50 ft cable accross the house because I just can't waste all that time restarting my connection every 5 minutes and waiting for it to connect.
    Can I conclude the router is physically broken? I didn't keep the original packaging so I'm not sure I can send it back, beside I can't afford to go without an internet connection for 2 weeks, waiting for a router...

    Did you reset the router after upgrading the router's firmware....If not then,Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

  • IPhone 3GS IOS4 Internet stops responding using Safari. FIDO Network

    Hi Everyone
    Just opgraded to IOS4 and noticed that agter a couple uses Safari gets an error message saying that it can't load the page requested. After a couple reboots it workes fine. In a while it stops again and I have to reboot again to resolve the issue. Tried to find a work around but still no solution. The only change is the IOS4 and a couple of upgrades to some apps. The Issue was here before the app upgrades as well. When I check settings it seems to be connected to my network and I have 5 bars of signal. It just won't go to any sites in Safari or Google or and other browser I have tried. All worked fine before IOS4 upgrade.

    Upgraded to 4.0.1 but still no iPhone in the interface list.
    The error reads (in Console):
    +17/07/10 14:06:08 iTunes[222] _NotificationSocketReadCallback (thread 0xa002b500): Unexpected connection closure...+

  • Satellite L50A - Internet frequently stops responding until i restart pc

    Hi,
    I have been having an issue of late where the internet seems to stop working.
    The network connection details down near the taskbar clock still say its connected with internet access, but it wont go.
    I have another older laptop that is using the same wifi network, and its internet access still works when this laptop stops. It only seems to start working again after restarting the PC.
    Even on a fresh startup, the internet wont work until I have done a restart.
    This is consistent for every startup.
    Once it is working, it will work for a little while, until it stops again - usually coinciding with the top of the hour.
    Any thoughts?

    Hi
    Just one question: do you speak about LAN or WLan connection?
    Does the same internet connection problem appear using both connections: WLan as well as LAN?
    In case the issue appears only using WLan, I would recommend you some simply workarounds:
    1) WLan driver update
    This is essential part. In many cases old and not updated driver might cause different problems in connection with different WLan routers/modems.
    2) Check the WLan connection using open (not secured) WLan at home. In many cases different encryption standards (WEP, WPA, WPA2, etc) could create some troubles between the notebook (WLan card) and WLan router due to compatibility issue. But note: the unsecured WLan should be used just for testing purposes.
    3) Last but not least check if power saving settings would affect the WLan performance. In device manager -> WLan card -> Properties -> Power Management tab ensure the option isnt checked (should be unchecked)
    Hope this helps to find the issue

  • Premiere Pro CC 2014 stops responding constantly--Adobe QT32 stops responding first

    Since updating to Premiere Pro 2014, I can't spend more than about 45 minutes editing before Premiere stops responding. Usually in the middle of playback, or while scrubbing. Sometimes the audio will continue playing after the application becomes unresponsive. Every single time, Adobe QT32 Server has stopped responding before the rest of the application does.
    Furthermore, once Adobe QT32 has stopped responding, Premiere cannot close, requiring a 'force quit' every time. Force quitting Adobe QT 32 Server does nothing.
    Please advise. CC is expensive and Premiere Pro is almost unusable at the moment.

    Here's an interesting article claiming this was a problem in AE 2012.  I do think removing all of the QT codec components makes a difference as I put several back in and as soon as I sent my previously functioning sequence to export, QT32 crashed.

    Unlikely.  Based on the complete lack of detail of the issue provided it is entirely possible the same issue would occur.
    Unless and until the user provides some actual details of the problem, there is nothing the indicate that the issue is with the iPhone.

  • TS1398 my problem is my iphone 4s is connected to the internet(wi-fi) with full signal strength but freezes when browsing and says "Cannot Open Page, Safari could not open page because the server stopped responding".

    my problem is my iphone 4s is connected to wi-fi with full signal(3 bars) strength but freezes when browsing and says
    "Cannot Open Page"
    "Safari could not open page because the server stopped responding"
    I already reset the iphone to its factory settings and erase all contents but still the browsing speed freezes or not searching at all. Sometimes it will work and fast but then the problem uccors every now and then. Iv'e been using iphone 4 for two years and I still have it and works fine compared to this IPHONE 4S.

    Settings → scroll down to Safari → in Safari settings, I selected both Clear History and Clear Cookies and Data.
    IF that does not work -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Finally - if problem still present -
    Go to Settings>General>Reset
         Reset the network settings - you will need to add the password of your home WiFi in your phone once more
    The device should turn itself off & back on then go into Settings>Wifi and join your network

    Am not able to use facebook on my Iphone 4, softwareversion:iOS7.1, also tried to access through safari and chrome that i have installed it gives an error message saying: "safari could not open the page because server stopped responding", i tried network reset, reset the whole device, rebooting , changing airplane mode rebooting nothing fix the issue, but i can access other sites and google , am using Vodafone as my carrier with 2g network, when at home able to access facebook.com through wifi in safari requesting assistance thank you

    If you can access Facebook while on Wifi at home, but you are unable to access it while away running on your carrier's 2G network, I could phone your carrier.  You have already completed the Cellular Data troubleshooting for the iPhone, so any limitations keeping your from connecting to Facebook over cellular will have to be answered by your carrier.

  • Two Buttons on my iPhone 4 & Its Accessory Keyboard Have All Stopped Responding.  What to do?

    The "Calendar" and the "Reminder" buttons on my iPhone 4 purchased in 9/2012 have stopped responding.  The phone has worked well to date.  What to do?
    I also use an accessory keyboard, which is made by Apple but is not listed online in the product options for Apple Support:  Apple Model A1314.  Among the numbers on the back is a possible model specifier, N122Z844.  This keyboard also has worked well to date. It takes 2 AA batteries; these are quite fresh.  "The Week" magazine recently listed it among good keyboards to buy, so I know Apple still supports it.  When I tap its on/off button, it still synchs with the iPhone.  I know that synch is working ok because, if the iPhone's screen-tap keyboard is displayed on the phone's screen when I activate the accessory keyboard, the screen-tap keyboard disappears. I have always needed to remove the batteries if I intend to, e.g., slip the keyboard into my briefcase.  This is because the keyboard turns itself on with any pressure on the on/off key, & perhaps with pressure on other keys as well.  I know it has a lot of built-in programming, because sometimes I have mistakenly pressed an unrememberable sequence of keys that has caused the thing to start typing in a foreign language.  In the past, taking out the batteries has allowed it to resume its mother tongue, American English.
    At about the same time the iPhone Calendar & Reminders button stopped working, this accessory keyboard also stopped working, as follows:  Despite having synched to the phone, when I type on it, it does not respond. 
    I think the problem may be that certain keys have been pressed in transit or by me accidentally in such a sequence as to foul up the options that are hard-wired in the keyboard.  I haven't found an online users manual to this keyboard on the Apple site so will appreciate any help.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    If issues continue, clearly define the issues without all the rambling.

  • Iphone 4s touchscreen stops responding after a minute or so, I then have to wait at least a minute before the touchscreen works again but soon after it stops responding. I have tried hard reset, turning it off over night, etc

    Hello,
    I had that problem as well and the apple support suggested to turn off the LTE-mode to have a running system and try to exchange the micro-sim by my provider.
    THAT was not an option!
    BUT it seems to solve my problem in the following way after trying a lot of possibilties:
    In the menue properties/help (don't know the exact english word, because I run my phone in german)
    I switched on the nice feature 'flash LED' by incomming calls, msgs, and push infos.
    Today the flash feature was responding to different push notes very slowly.
    By switching this feature off the LTE-mode-tochscreen-not-responding-problem disappeared.
    We tried this on a other iphone, not having the metioned problem, and switched the LED-flash:
    the problem appeared. Switching the LED-flash off: problem disappeared!
    It seems to be a bug that the LED will hint Calls and MSGs in combination with the LTE mode!
    treated my phone very hard today to double check, but its still ok.
    @Apple:
    Please fix that issue in the next update.
    Hope, this helps you guys as well.

  • Iphone 4 error message while in wifi "safari can not open page because server stopped responding" after iOS6 update

    I am currently using my Iphone 4 in wifi networks only after canceling my cell phone plan. Over the weekend I did the IOS6 update on the iphone as well as updated my macbooks itunes and OS X operating systems updates that were available.  Since that my iphone's safara app won't connect.  After it trys to connect for a minute or 2 I recieve the message: "safari can not open page because server stopped responding".  However ALL other apps that require the phone to be connected to wifi for use work properly, i.e app store, imessage, pinger, facebook, etc.  I have checked all network setting and they looked right to me.  Anything I'm missing, ideas to try, or am I sol (lol)?  Safari worked perfectly before the update so I thought I might have done something wrong or forgot to change some type of setting.
    Thank you!

  • HT201401 After updating to ios7, my iphone 4s is hanging continuosly. It get stuck between apps. Sometimes apps stop responding..

    My iphone 4s stop responding very frequently after updating to new software ios7. Sometimes it freezes while playing games or using any app. Apps closes by itself or stop responding. I dont know wats goin on. Totally frustrated. Ios7 *****. Is it due to new software update or something else???

    Briansyddal - you might be able to manage your phone without a PC, but many of us can't, especially those of us with large iTunes libraries.  How do you propose I manage my 250GB of music using only a phone?  Maybe I could go out and buy 10 iPhones and spread my library out among them!
    Catz537 - I have the same problem as you and I've spent hours on the web trying to find a solution to it.  It was a problem with iOS 7 and  8.1.1 doesn't fix it.  The the only advice from Apple is completely useless because it requires you, effectively, to delete and recreate your iTunes library and lose all your metadata, album art, notes etc and there's also no guarantee it will work.   I wish I could be more help (even more - I wish Apple could be more help) - I updated to 8.1.1 at 1400 today.  At 2200 I'm still "waiting for changes to be applied" for a measly 16GB of music transfer.
