IPhone keeps freezing up, strange error messages
I bought my iPhone on the day it came out in 2007, and it has worked great over the past two years. Recently, however, the phone seems to freeze up and I have to restart it multiple times in order for it to work again. This usually happens when I open an App or use Safari, but it does also happen sometimes when using the iPod or the phone. It does this faithfully AT LEAST once a day. Also, when I restart it (usually a couple times, but could sometimes take a dozen or more restarts) a weird message comes up with all this computer coding and a strange message at the bottom, saying "Panic: We are hanging in there...."
Does anyone know what this means? How can I fix this? Is it just time to get a new phone?
I would get a new phone. I'm sick of the Iphone, mine keeps freezing all day long. If I make a call, send a text, click the home button--it will freeze and go to black. I'm fed up with it, many of my colleagues are chucking their iphones for the same reason! If you decide to keep it, good luck! The phone shouldn't cost so much and have a 2 year life span....it's ridiculous!

WRT54G- Won't accept my new modem and I keep getting a strange error message
On Christmas night, my modem crapped out forcing me to purchase a new one the next day. After getting it online, I attempted to hook up my router. However, I could not connect to the internet through it. I figured it must be because the IP address must have been changed and it needs to be reconfigured.
So, I tried completely re-installing the router but I still could not connect to the internet. When I went on the web browser based page for the router to try to configure it, I got an error message stating that another PC on the network has the IP address. I did have a second PC hooked up to the router at the time; I unhooked it and tried to at least get the router to configure to one of the PCs.
Yet, again, I was getting an error message saying: "May be route already exists".
Because of this, I cannot register the new IP address and still cannot connect to the internet through my router. Anyone know what I need to do?Who is your Internet Service Providor? Do you have a static IP Address provided by your ISP?

Capture problem -- strange error messages -- computer freezes
Upon 25 minutes or so into capturing, I get a strange error message to this effect: "analyzing DV audio -- validating audio data" -- the video slows to a crawl until it completely freezes -- rainbow wheel whirls nonstop -- sometimes command-option-escape force quits it, sometimes not and I have to reboot the computer. Sometimes I don't get the error message -- the computer capture screen freezes but the camera keeps going. Anyway here are the specs: Intel dual-processor iMac 300 GB with Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.5., format Mac OS Extended journaled. External hard drives Western Digital 500 GB formatted the same; QT 7.5.5; FCE 4.0.1; Settings: DV NTSC 48 Khz. Format & use - DV NTSC. Device control preset: firewire NTSC. Camera - Canon 900 ZR (miniDV tapes) hooked up to back of iMac via 6 pin shiny orange firewire for capture. I capture to Mac hard drive and then move video to external hard drive. Yes there is enough space and RAM. I had this problem before except the error message was "locating time break." So it was suggested I capture to hard disk. Seems like it's always something! I've lost hours trying to fix this problem. Hope someone can help. Thanks.
12 bit. Haven't been having any audio problems with FCE. However, I tried the nightmare iDive and never got audio (much less anything else) to work with that. So I uninstalled it and asked for my money back.

Can someone please help me get my iPhone to sync to your computer?
I can not sync my iPhone to the computer. I keep getting up an error message that synchronization does not want to start. I have uninstalled iTunes and then reinstall it. But the same warning box will appear. How can I get my phone in sync again?Hello lenmin,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

after unlocking over the phone from ATT and resetting iphone 3gs I keep getting the same error message "could not activate phone" neither Apple Store Tech or ATT were able to fix this .
Itunes displays a message saying "there is no SIM installed in the phone you're trying to activate" even if there is the same SIM that was working minutes before.
The SIM works on a different phone I tested it.
Any ideas?? TKS Sandro“Could Not Activate EDGE” error message Update ...
Well it’s going on day 6 and still sporadic to no EDGE on my iPhone. At one time, it was thought to be a defective iPhone – since my partner’s iPhone works just fine.
After over three hours on the land line with AT&T and Apple, I was sent to the local Apple store for a replacement. Of course, as soon as I walked into the Apple store my iPhone worked just fine. ;-( The local store replaced my iPhone and suggested I go home and activate the phone as a NEW iPhone, that way if there was a bug in my data it would not carry over to the new phone. Did that and well… still sporadic to no EDGE. By the way, I have the Big White “E” to the right of the 5 bars and AT&T .
AT&T said last week they has “Software” issues in my area, but the CSR I talked to did not know what the issues were or if they were the cause of my problems. He did say they would call me back today to see how my iPhone was doing, but alas, no call back.
When I’m next to my partner, trying to access the same feature, his iPhone is just so fast. Mine hangs up, draws out and finally I get the error message, “Could Not Activate EDGE”. I am updated to version “1.1.4(4A102)”. New (refurbished) iPhone direct from Apple.
I remember reading a while back about some problems others had when they upgraded to from 1.1.3 to 1.1.4. I never had those problems, but it sure looks like they may have started. Does anyone remember what the problems with 1.1.4 were, what was done if anything to correct them, and best of all any suggestions?
By the way, this is Seattle, not some small – out of the way place where connection and signal strength is expected to be second rate. Also, I had full function of my iPhone from the day I bought it in June 2007, all the way up to Thursday March 20, at 2120.
Thanks

I cannot sync my iPhone with iTunes for Windows. Even if the computer is authorized, it keeps on displaying an error message that tells that this computer is not authorized. I already tried to do the resolutions you have given in case this situation happens.
It's an endless circle.
See if these instructions help: iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases -

I can log into my iCloud account on my iphone but when I try to log in on my pc I keep getting a connection error message. Any ideas?
Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?

HT201412 iphone keeps freezing and touch screen wont work
the touch screen on my iphone keeps freezing up and won't respond to any touches. I have restored my phone two times and then it will work for awhile and then freeze up again. if i restart the phone several times it will start working again, but only for about 1 hour, and then it freezes again. any ideas how to fix this?
Leaving it in rice only overnight usually isn't sufficient to dry out an iPhone. It usually takes at least a couple of days before you can risk turning the iPhone back on. And with seawater infiltration, drying it out probably won't help since seawater will leave a lot of residue.
If resetting the iPhone doesn't bring the screen back:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
then the iPhone probably has suffered hardware damage and you'll need to take or send it to Apple and pay their out-of-warranty replacement charge, or the AppleCare+ fee if you had AppleCare+ coverage.

Safari keeps dropping down this error message when ever i try to log on to any website safai can't verify the identity of the website ( e.g.. any address ) and the drop down has three choices to click on or else you can't go foward., they are check certificate ______ cancel ______ continue.... This thing is so annoying when trying to go somewhere i just want the error message to go away.
In your Keychain under 'login' delete the VeriSign certificates and then quit and restart all browsers/itunes/app store.
