IPhone now only vibrating a few times?

When I got a phone call, my iPhone 5 would vibrate until the call went to voicemail, or until I hit the lock button. Now it seems it is vibrating only a few times (I want to say four times) until it just stops vibrating - but the call is still going. I keep mistakenly thinking that they hung up! The text vibrates are working fine.
Has this been an issue for anyone and how did you fix it? Thanks

You can set different vibration patterns and lengths.
If you go to Settings>Sounds and touch the "Vibration" setting you will see them.
The default is "Alert" which I believe keeps vibrating until the call is answered or hung up.

If you have the latest version of iTunes you should not have to download the ipsw file separately as jalp suggests. iTunes will download it automatically.
This error (9) most often means that your antivirus or firewall (or router) is blocking access to Apple's servers. In rare instances it can also mean that the phone was hacked (or "jailbroken") to unlock it. If this is the case you must do a DFU restore, not Recovery Mode, as follows:
Reboot your computer
Disable your antivirus and firewall. If you has Kaspersky you may actually have to uninstall it, as it can never be turned completely off.
Connect the USB cable to a USB port directly on your computer, not to a hub. DO NOT connect the other end to the phone
Disconnect all USB devices except for mouse, keyboard and iPhone cable.
Launch iTunes
On the phone hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time for EXACTLY 10 seconds, then release the SLEEP button but continue holding the HOME button. The screen should be black. If it has an Apple logo this means you held both buttons too long. Release the HOME button and do it again.
While holding the HOME button connect the free end of the cable to the phone.
After a short while iTunes should recognize a phone in "recovery mode" (iTunes doesn't know the difference between DFU and Recovery modes, but the phone does)
Release the HOME button and don't touch the phone or the computer until the process completes or you get an error message. Ignore any displays on the phone.
If the error recurs the phone was probably messed up when it was hacked. This is not a hardware problem, or if it is, it isn't one you can fix.
You can try repeating these steps with a different computer and a different cable. If that fails also the phone is probably not repairable.

My IPhone, after synching the last few times, has inherited both my husband and my daughter's music libraries. How do I un do this?

My IPhone, after synching the last few times, has inherited both my husband and my daughter's music libraries. How do I un-do this and keep this from happening in the future?

1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.

2)
Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Then on the iPod go to
- Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
- Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
- Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers
Contnue to use the commpn ID/account for Settings>iTunes and App stores.

Last week my Iphone5 lost all sound, it now only vibrates.

Is the mute switch turned to red on the side? Is Do Not Disturb on? (Look for the crescent moon icon in the status bar up top)

My iPhone just stopped ringing or making keystroke sounds etc it now only vibrates. How do I fix this ?

I Was using my phone as usual today without any problem when it just stopped making any nois. No sound on incoming mail,messages or calls. Also no keystroke sounds. Can you please advise how this can be fixed. Thanks.

Hi no I don't. But thanks for your reply it promoted me to double check.

Just got iphone 5-only syncs a few songs from itunes library. some songs on ipad. would like them all on new iphone

Please help! I have a new iPhone. Have some songs from iTunes library on iPad and only a few transferred to new phone when synced. Tried deleting songs from iPad and they went to iCloud. So now I have songs in iCloud on iPad and some songs on iPhone. Help! I want ALL iTunes library on new phone.

I hope I'm not too confusing--to clarify: I have iTunes library on the computer. When I got the iPad, most of them transferred to that. I read somewhere on here how to delete those songs and they are now 500+ songs in iCloud...I think. Tried putting the iTunes library onto new iPhone 5s a few days ago and only 149 out of 1100 songs transferred. HOw can I get my whole library from the computer to my new phone? I don't need them on my iPad.

Embedding an image works only for a few times, then I need to resize.

Hi all
I am trying to use an image and I am having the following problem:
- the image is a png, 2000x2464 pixels
- I embed the image
- Everything works OK during the first few tries
- After some debugging session, without changing anything in the image embedding, the image isn't loaded anymore, or better, it seems loaded ( in the variables I see the istance of my class and it is not null) but the bitmapdata of the image is null, width and height are 0.
- Now, I resize the image to something smaller and i start again. Everything works fine again and the cycle begins again !
Here's the code:
In the declarations of the class containing the image:
        [Embed(source = "images/italyMapZOUT.png")]
        [Bindable]
        var mapClass:Class;
        var map:Bitmap;
In the initialization method that i call after construction:
        map = new mapClass();
        var bdata:BitmapData = map.bitmapData;
        var myRatio:Number = someNumber / map.width;
It seems to me that I am embedding the image as described in zillions of sites and it is actually working... for some times ! Then , after say 5 or 6 debugging sessions, I get an error evaluating "someNumber" because width is zero, and checking the local variable I see that bitmapData is null.
Resizing to a smaller image , saving said image and restarting solves the issue temporarily.
Any idea what's happening ?
Thank you very much !

The backlight still seems to be working (so goes from lit to darkened), but it sounds like the LCD is not working.
If you did a Restore and the problem is not resolved, it is likely to be a hardware-related problem, unfortunately.

Bluetooth Motorola Razor - Sent multiple files.. Now only 1 at a time???

I have an IMAC and a Motorola Razor. The Bluetooth used to allow me to send multiple photo files at once and now it only lets me send one file at a time from any bluetooth enabled cell or smartphone. It worked as recent as Monday and I have tried other phones with the same result.
I am wondering if there is some setting on the IMAC that might have been set improperly on mistake. I have looked everywhere to see what may have happened. There does not seem to be any setting in Bluetooth settings which limit the number of files that can be sent. Also, it makes it really difficult if you have a large number of files to transfer.
Finally, I checked to see if this only applied to photos. It applies to any file that I try to send either to the IMAC or from the IMAC to my phone.
Can anyone help me?

Passcode lock - Now only offers ridiculously short times!

I have just got to the bottom of why my iPhone keeps locking itself.
Under 3.o and earlier versions of firmware you could set Pass lock on one hour or 4 hours which worked fine for me.
However under 3. these options are gone and now the longest I an set it too is 15 minute.
This is just plain stupid!
Any ideas how to get the longer times back with out resorting to trying to go back t 3.0?

If you use an Exchange account, those restrictions may be imposed by the Exchange Administrator. You should check with your IT folks.
"Additional device restrictions are now available, including the ability to specify the length of time that a device can be left unlocked, disable the camera, and prevent users from taking a screenshot of the device’s display." http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/Enterprise_DeploymentGuide.pdf

IPod only recognized a few times per reboot

I've got a 40GB iPod connected via firewire. It's recognized by the computer itself just fine without any problems and works flawlessly as a drive.
iTunes, however, only seems to reliably recognize the iPod after a system reboot. If I eject and later reattach the iPod, iTunes only sees it again after doing this maybe two or three more times. Restating iTunes doesn't help, nor does logging out and back in. The only way to get it back in iTunes at this point is to reboot the system.
Needless to say, this is very frustrating as I take my iPod with me on my daily commute to listen to regular podcasts.
Even though I'm not really experiencing the specific problem in http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716, I've been through it. My installation of Windows is rather fresh and it had this problem before I reinstalled for unrelated reasons. So please don't tell me to reinstall windows, itunes or quicktime.
I'm sick of rebooting my computer every day for something this stupid. If the system can see the **** thing reliably, why won't iTunes??

hmm... the latest update (6.0.2.23) seems like it might have actually fixed the problem. Cool .

My iphone has lost it´s tunes and does only vibrate.By incoming calls it shows "blocked"

By incoming calls my iphone dos only vibrate (no tune) and it shows "blocked".How can I get back the tunes?

Greetings Nefertiti72,
It seems you are experiencing an issue with contact syncing and management. It seems you've removed an email account which contained a number of contacts that are not associated with your iCloud account. I have linked to a knowledge base article which provides more information about iCloud contacts syncing:
Get help using iCloud Contacts - Apple Support
Learn what to do if you’re having issues using iCloud Contacts. For example, you might make changes to Contacts that don't update across all of your devices.
You may want to consider importing the contacts from the email account you removed. You can do it easily by following the steps in this article:
iCloud: Import a vCard
You can import an electronic business card, also called a vCard, into iCloud Contacts. If the vCard contains contact information for more than one person, each contact becomes a separate entry.
In iCloud Contacts, choose Import vCard from the Action pop-up menu , which appears at the bottom of the All Contacts list or a list of group contacts
Select a vCard to import.
The contacts from the vCard are added to the All Contacts group in Contacts. You can add the contacts to any other group by dragging them to the desired group.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Best,

When I get a message it only vibrates even though all sounds are on and when someone calls the sound works perfectly normal.

Try a reset. To reset the iPhone, press and hold the home and sleep/wake buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the slide to power off prompt). If that doesn't work, perform a Restore via iTunes (from backup).

I've had to reset my laptop to factory settings a few times recently and now I realise that i have auth'd my iphone to my laptop 4 times now (i can only do this once more). Is there anyway of de-authing my laptop without being having access to itunes?

Without access, you're gonna have to wait until you reach the 5 authorized computer limit, then you can de-authorize all.
