"iPhone 5" sometimes doesn't wake up when pressing on the start or power buttons
Hello Everyone,
I'm facing a little problem with my new iPhone 5.
When it goes into sleep, sometimes doesn't wake up after pressing on the start or power buttons, and I have to wait 5 to 15 seconds until it is ON again.
Do you have any idea Why is that?
Regards,
William
Hi William,
There is a section in this article that troubleshoots when a button is slow to respond:

Specifically, this section:
Buttons and Switches
The Home button is slow to respond
Cheers!

Powerbook sometimes doesn't wake up when it goes to sleep.
About 3 months ago I replaced the internal hard drive in my Aluminum 15" Powerbook G4 1.67 GHz. The install and replace went fine, and I'm very happy to have a 250 GB drive now instead of the old 80 GB one.
However. . . Ever since then I've had an intermittent problem. It doesn't happen every time; just once in a while. I'd say once out of every 10 times that the powerbook goes to sleep, I can't wake it up again. The screen remains black, and no activity can be heard coming from inside the machine. I know it's still on, because peripherals I have plugged into it are still lit up (where they don't light up when the machine is shut down). In order to get my computer up and running again, I have to hold the reset button for longer than 10 seconds. . . let it go. . . then push the reset button quickly, as you would when turning the machine on after it had been shut down. Just pushing the reset button once does nothing; I have to hold down the button to do a hard shut off, then turn the machine on again.
About half the time this problem occurs, there is only silence and a black screen. But the other half of the time I hear a high-pitched, soft, mechanical buzzing or grinding sound coming from inside the machine just as soon as the screen goes black for the machine to go to sleep. To be honest, it sounds like it's coming from the right side of the machine, where the Superdrive is. . . but it has only happened since after I did the HDD replacement, so it seems more likely to be related to the hard disk. When the noise happens, I also have to do a hard reset in order to restore the machine and get it to boot up.
So far, there has been no loss of important data or functionality as a result of this. (I back up frequently with Time Machine.) But it certainly does not seem like a good thing. I have purchased diskwarrior for other reasons, and I will probably use it to make sure the hard drive is healthy. But I was wondering if anyone here had experienced this before? It's a bit of a pain, as I don't like to have to shut down the computer every time I want to move from my office to a conference room, but the scary noise makes me hesitant to close the laptop (hence putting it to sleep) when it is on.
When the noisedgalvan: A word of caution: always be sure to unmount or "eject" your USB drive before disconnecting the hub from the Powerbook or the drive from the hub. If the drive has been unmounted and disconnected from the hub, the hub can be disconnected from the Powerbook without any further ceremony.
Disconnecting the drive (or turning it off, if it has a power switch) while it's still mounted on the desktop will mess up its directory, or worse.
I don't know whether the hub by itself (without the drive connected) might be capable of causing your sleep-related problem, or whether the drive must be connected to the hub and the hub to the Powerbook for the problem to arise. Experiment and see.
And of course I also don't know whether or not you have any other peripherals that might be involved. -
My iMac doesn't wake up when I hit the wireless keyboard
I leave my imac on all the time, I have a wireless bluetooth keyboard and sometimes when I hit the keyboard my imac doesn't wake up. Is this an issue that anyone else has delt with? Is it a keyboard issue or a computer issue?
Weak battery?

how can I check my passcode I updated today and when I am going to reset all content and setting my iPhone 4S they asked me for passcode when I entered the passcode the one I just update too is doesn't want to accept it
I have had the same problem with iPad recently not too sure why it happened but if you are completing a full reset anyway the easiest way is the restore via itunes on your computer and then set up a new passcode again. Resetting via itunes doesnt require a passcode so it should go straight through.
Hope this helps -

iPod nano 3rd gen. Apple logo remains on screen and iTunes doesn't recognise it's plugged in, I can't even turn it off. I've tried to get to disc menu but when I hold the 'menu and select button' it reboots and then doesn't recognise the select and play button to show the tick. I'm helpless.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Hi Genoc728,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPhone is unresponsive and can't be turned off, you can reset it. See this article for the steps, and other helpful troubleshooting tips for an unresponsive device:

Konsole doesn't view well when I zoom the window of konsole
I'm using KDE 4.8.4.Konsole can maximize / restore well.But it doesn't zoom well.When I zoom the window,konsole cannot view well.Sometimes it is white,or transparent.
But when I change the window decorations of kwin to others like qtcurve.It works well.When the window decorations is Oxygen.It doesn't work well.
I'm using catalyst,konsole 2.8.4.What should I do?Why does it happen?
Sorry,I can't use English well.Sorry for my late update:
cor-el, thanks for your suggestions, I've just tried with safe mode(by starting FF with "shift" held down), but things still don't work well. However, I did get some findings:
* In either Safe or normal mode, when only 1 window of multiple tabs: if close window via "X" or "File"->"Exit", then no prompt.
* In either Safe or normal mode, when 2 windows of multiple tabs:
* * If close either window via "X", then it shows prompt :-)
* * If close either window via "File"->"Exit", still no prompt.
In all, 2 FF windows seem to work well for "X" button.
I didn't try w/ more windows open, maybe same as 2 windows I guess.
jscher2000, thanks for your sharing, too. It reminded me that the 2 closing methods are really different.
Guys, looking fwd to more of your expertise sharing! -
How can I activate an old version of Photoshop that I've loaded on my new tablet? The web activation doesn't work, and when I call the number, it says it's not being used anymore. Meanwhile, I'm down to 13 days till it stops working due to not being activated. HELP? I really need to continue using this product for my home business.It works fine not activated but the threat is that it will stop working in 13 more days if I don't get it activated, and none of the activation methods they list seem to work.
The new serial number is to the right of your chosen download.

Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

i use a macbook pro which came with facetime i have an iphone 4S as well. whenever i use the wireless on my iphone i can facetime with ease however when i use the same wireless for my mac to facetime the call always gets disconnected.
To use factime on your Mac, I believe you will need to use your email address to do so instead of your wireless number. Since you can't make calls on the Mac.

The download function is not working....!! I don't use any add-ons like idm or dap,etc.... When I click on something like download a doc,pdf or any such file, the firefox just doesn't respond, and when I checked the download, i.e. cntrl+j, I don't find anything in the downloads... I am currently using Firefox 7.0.1....... Nothing is being downloaded, and I am forced to use IE8 for everything... I even tried re-installing, but doesn't help... I am using Windows 7
TonyE is correct the plugin version comes with Adobe's Reader X.
The failure in communication is two parted:
1. Reader X is not Acrobat (Mozilla Plugin Checker)
2. Acrobat is not mentioned in the Reader X download Page (Adobe)
therefore confused clients.
For readers '''CAUTION''' check the minimum requirements for Reader X.
Here: [http://www.adobe.com/products/reader/tech-specs.html Adobe's Reader X requirements link]
Do not waste the time to download (80+MB and Site is Slow) if your machine does not have the resources to execute it. ie. '''aging''' Hardware
Unfortunately the Adobe DLM only checks the requirements after it has
downloaded BEFORE the install occurs.
This is '''very expensive''' for both the sender and receiver
It might be why they called it READER X and READER 9 will not sense an update...
