Hold down the home and power buttons until the Apple logo appears(about 15 seconds). It should then restart.

My MacBook screen will not turn off when closed.

I replaced the screen on my 13.3 MacBook, but now when I close the it, the screen does not enter sleep mode like it is supposed to (the Apple logo is still lit, and light can be seen inside the laptop. Also when it is closed, and music is playing- the music does not stop.) I have not called Apple yet (because it is Xmas Eve) but I will as soon as possible. I did a PRAM zap, and tried going through the system preferences. Any help would be great, thank you.

There is supposed to be a small magnet in the lid that triggers the sleep switch when the lid comes down. It sounds like it wasn't installed as part of the screen swap. You can confirm this using a fridge magnet. Place the magnet on the edge of the palm rest just above the Kensinton security slot and it should trigger a sleep response. If it does, that confirms the magnet is missing from the lid.

IPhone 3GS V4.3.3 - Passcode Lock will not turn off

Ok, first off, I have never intentionnally turned on my Passcode Lock... As the story goes, I was dead asleep the other day and got a text, in the process of trying to get to the text while groggy and half asleep, my phone asked me to enter a passcode, I entered my usual 4 digit code for most things twice, got to the text replied and went back to sleep. Now, I cannot turn off my Passcode Lock!!!
When I go to Settings, Passcode Lock (shows On), enter my passcode, then on the screen the Turn Passcode Off is greyed out and cannot be selected. Can someone tell me what I have done to make it where I cannot turn off the Passcode Lock? Please help!!!

Interesting... I do have an exchange account on my phone and have had it on my phone for 3 years now however, they just did an upgrade on the email server and it happend right about the same time, within a day or so. For now, I've set it to require the password after every one hour and I will contact my office and ask if that is a new requirement. Thanks soo much for your help it makes total sense since we handle very sensitive information.

HT201401 the camera light will not turn off in the back?

how do i get the camera light to turn off in the back?

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.

My phone ran out of battery last night and will not turn on through charging. Top button has also stopped functioning. Help?

My iPhone ran out of battery last night, and now it won't turn on.
The top button doesn't work anyway, but I've tried charging to wake it up using several chargers and via a laptop and plug socket.
The phone's about a year old, and has otherwise been working fine. I've no idea why it would just stop working - no water spilt on it or anything like that.
Can anyone suggest anything?

Clean iPhone charging port with toothbrush and small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol. See if better. Try another good USB cable. This iPhone potentially has many problems. Without the top button function it is very difficult to deal with any of the other problems. The iPhone may also have faulty battery, faulty charging port, or worse faulty screen, or even worse faulty logic board. Apple will handle this with perfect Replacement iPhone 4 exactly like yours for $149.

Private browsing will not turn off when I press the button or use the hotkey.

When I try to turn off private browsing, using the button and the hotkey, it will not turn off. What is wrong?

Make sure that you not run Firefox in automatic [[Private Browsing]] mode.
You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
To see all History settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting '''Firefox will: Use custom settings for history'''

After recent updates, mute light will not turn off

My computer downloaded a bunch of system updates last night, and now the mte light will not turn off. It still functions properly (turning sound on/off), but the light stays on regardless. I either have windows 8 or 8.1 not sure what's the difference.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

I suggest using Windows system restore to roll back the updates, one at a a time to find the one that caused it.

Ipod shuffle green statuslight will not turn off

Dear
I tried several times to reset my ipot shuffle,
and to install new from the original ipod CD.
In itunes there is no problem, Ican see the ipot in the list, and there is no failure.
But when I disconnect it, and turn it on with the switch,
the green status led on the front is lightning, and it will
not turn off.
When I push buttons, there is no response.
Before this failure, the green status light went out
after 3 seconds when switch on.
what can I do?
I dont feel like wasting my time trying to get it
running again. What I need is a clear discribtion
what to do, because I did find nothing with this
sympthom.
Cheers A.O.

I have the same problem. It happend when I deleted and reinstalled the Itunes software. The software installation ask to "format" the Ipod, the applcation crashed and since then I can download music in the Ipod, I can see it connected to Itune and to My Computer, but I cannot use it to listened to music by itself. The green light doesn't turn off and nothing happen.
What sould we do?
