IPhone switches from play to pause randomly

When playing music on the iPhone it will randomly switch from play to pause then back to play again on its own. It behaves like this randomly and the time before it switches back to play is equally random from 2 sec to 15 sec. This is annoying. Anyone else experience this or have any idea as to the cause? I have version 2.0.1. TIA

One thing that might help out.
When you notice the iphone going from play to pause, is it when you are using the earbuds that came with the iphone or are you using a different pair.
The reason for this questions is if the earbuds become disconnected from the iphone it is supposed to pause. Or, is you squeeze the mic part way down the earbud cable it is supposed to pause.
Try wiggling the headphone jack in the iphone to see if you can produce this issue.
Also, try wiggling the cable around the mic on the cable to see if you can produce this issue.
Hope this helps.

Adobe Media Server failing to record video if switched from play to record midstream

The Adobe Media Server is failing to record video if switched from play to record midstream. It is an intermittent issue that happens randomly one out of every 30 attempts.
Flash Runtime: Flash Player ActiveX 11.7.700.169 or Flash Player ActiveX 11.4.402.287
Media Server: AMS5.0.1, also FMS4.5.5
(The problem happens on both FMS4.5.5 and AMS5.0.1)
The ActionScript is as follows:
netstreamRoger.publish("719_Client","play");
Then 1 second later:
netstreamRoger.publish("719_Client","record");
netstreamRoger is streaming out the video and audio data correctly, because there is another computer playing the stream 719_Client live. So the media server is forwarding the stream correctly when live. The bug is when you attempt to playback 719_Client.flv the file does not contain any video data. The file size is not zero, and the file is not corrupted, but the file size is smaller than it would be if it had saved the video in it.
How do I submit this bug to the Media Server team, and how can I workaround this issue?
Below is the log from the Media Server 5.0.1

Hi LoboCatholic,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are desscribing. I am not certain that this will address your specific issue, but if you are having photo organization issues in iOS 8 on your new iPhone 6, you may find the following article helpful:

My nano arbitrarily moves from playing to paused, with no human interaction

My 1st gen nano arbitrarily moves from playing to paused, with no human interaction. This seems to be worse when it is in my Altec Lansing InMotion speaker, but it happens when it is not in the speaker as well.
Reset didn't do anything helpful.
It ran out of warranty 2 days ago.
Suggestions?

I've also tried resetting my iPod nano (2nd gen)and nothing helped with the pausing issue. But one thing that did help for awhile was resetting the nano, deleting the songs and restarting it....

My iphone 4 keeps switching songs, playing and pausing by itself especially when I use my headphones

Ever since I installed the iOS 7.1 update, my iPhone 4 keeps playing, pausing, switching to the next song, fast forwarding by itself. Especially when I use my headphones. It's getting really frustrating because not only is it when I listen to the music player, but also on youtube videos and then it pause the video and then play the music from the music player or it would pause music on soundcloud by itself too. This mostly happens when I use my headphones but when I don't use my headphones I don't see it happening.
A friend called me and I was using my headphones and the conversation kept getting hanged up by itself it wasn't until I stopped using the headphones that I could have a normal converstation, but I only talked for less than a minute without the headphones so it wasn't enough to tell me that it is the headphones that is the problem. So is it my phone or my headphones? Is this a software problem because of the update because my headphones were not doing this before, HOW CAN I MAKE THIS STOP. (This has been happening for almost a week now)
BTW: I also noticed that if I am listening to music on the music player or youtube and its in my pocket or hand and Im jumping to the song or shaking (lol) the songs pause and plays then switches to the next song aaaaurrrrrruuuuuuuggggggghrrrrrghhhhhhh WHATS GOING ON

Hello alplease,
It sounds like your touch screen is acting erratically and seems to be exacerbated when you have your earphones in. I recommend the information in the following article named:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Troubleshooting touchscreen response
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1827
Restart your device
Hold the On/Off button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the On/Off button to turn it back on.
If you can't restart your device, reset it by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for a least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Clean the screen with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth.
Avoid using the device while wearing gloves, with wet hands, or immediately after applying hand lotion.
If you have a protective case, or if you are using a plastic sheet or film on the display, try removing them and testing the device without it.
If the steps above don't resolve your issue, please schedule a service appointment with an Apple Retail Store for evaluation. If an Apple Retail store is not an option, contact Apple to find out your best service option or see theService FAQ for your product.
You can also try closing all the open apps:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that and restart the phone and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

Questions re: iPhone switch from PC to Mac

Hi everyone -
I finally made the switch from PC... I bought a shiny new iMac over the weekend, and so far, I love it!
Anyway, here's the situation: my iPhone 3G was previously synced with iTunes on my PC. I now am "phasing out" my PC in favor of the iMac. Once I get all of my stuff migrated to the iMac (like all my music), I want to start using the iMac exclusively to sync with the iPhone.
Here are my questions:
1) Is there anything special I need to do before I just go plugging in the iPhone into the iMac? and
2) I presume that once I do plug it into the iMac for sync, the iPhone will reformat itself for use with the Mac. Am I looking at potential total destruction of my Apps? My contacts, calendar etc. are already on MobileMe - so they're safe... but how do I save my lovely Apps collection?
Thanks for taking a look - hope someone out there has some answers!

You should get everything working on the Mac first.
eg: Export your contacts from your old computer (to some .CSV file) and import into Mac's address book.
Make sure all music, videos, etc are on your Mac (or available via some drive it will have access to).
Your apps are on your computer so back them up too. Go to your apps, right click any one and say Show in Windows Explorer and it will go to where it stores the files for apps, so back them up over to your Mac too.
In iTunes on your Mac, make sure you are logged into the iTunes store before importing anything into it and that computer is authorized on your account.
In the end, you should have your library all setup on the Mac seeing all the files you had before.
You should export any contacts and import them into your Mac.
Once your mac is all setup, then you can sync and yes it will wipe your phone (not everything and it is not considered a reformat, it will just delete your music, videos, etc). But you can resync all that back since the new Mac can see those files now.
MobileMe is done via settings on the iPhone so you should be fine with that.
Others here may point you to a FAQ on this as I know there is one and they lay it out step by step about migrating from Windows to a Mac (for iTunes as iTunes may have some tools to help).

Iphone (3G) switching from 3G to E randomly

Ok, here's my story. My iPhone is a little over a year old. I have restored, restarted, done anything possible to try and get this phone to work. I live in Boston. My phone for the past month has been acting funny. I would be in full 3G service one minute, and the next would be in E network. I have tried switching off 3G and turning it back on, and while it is temporary (a few minutes max) it is annoying to to have to switch back and forth. Is there anything I can do?
I went to the apple store and the diagnostic said nothing. I went to the AT&T store and got a new sim card. The new sim card worked for 3 minutes (I counted, no lying). I don't know what to do.

Anyone have any solution?

6.1.2 - Switching from LTE to 4G randomly! ??

I have 6.1.2 installed on my Iphone 5. Basically here's whats going on.
-LTE will randomly turn off and 4G will be enabled. Even when you go to Cellular, LTE is switched on... but it's not on.
-Wifi is a disaster for me. The signal drops in the same room as the router. I don't know how to explain the problem other than a CRAZY WEAK WIFI signal. I don't really know what to do about this. I've literally had 6 iphone replacements with 6 different issues that came with them. They refuse to exchange anymore. I don't recall this wifi being an issue on any of them prior to this one. I'm hoping it's not hardware but, signs are pointing toward it being so.
-Battery seems better than in September when it would just die in standby.
While, I appreciate some things being fixed, I don't appreciate a company who basically gets fed up with helping somebody with their purchase. Why did I have to get 6 iphone replacements?? Oh, that's right - because they are making these phones like garbage! Scratches, Buttons improprly built that cause malfunction, wifi problems, camera problems, BAD BATTERIES. But when it's all said and done, they refused to just keep on exchanging until I got what I paid for. I think that's crazy. The fact that I was loyal enough to say, Okay, let's try it again - instead of saying THIS IS PEICE OF GARBAGE PRODUCT (Which, i'm sorry, it is) speaks levels of my loyality. I was dismissed from their care and I think that's ridiculous! Sept 21st purchase, it's now Feb 23. I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN WHAT I PAID FOR! Thats the truth.

Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
This should address the LTE to 4G switching, assuming the issue is not the LTE coverage in your area. It should also help with the Wi-Fi connectivity.

My iphone switches from the carrier network to no service. What can I do?

I have a brand new unlocked Iphone 4s. I took it to my carrier, T Mobile, to activate the sim card. The phone now will fluctuate between T Mobile and No Service. I have read that something may be wrong with the antenna. Any suggestions? If the phone does not improve by Mon. (3 days from now), I am taking it to a repair shop.

Hi KIA SHA,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that it must be very frustrating that you are receiving no service after upgrading your iPhone. In this situation I would recommend working through the steps provided in the attached article.
If you see No Service in the status bar of your iPhone or iPad

[iPhone] Switch from navigationView to tabView?

Hello,
I built my app from the "navigation-based" template, which works fine for the main screen, but I would like to be able to switch to using a tabBar.
How do I go from the navigationView to the tabView?

Alright, why is no-one answering?
Is there at least some sample code that does this, or could someone give me the slightest guidance on where to find more info on this?
I can't seem to push the tabview controller onto the screen, because it is already nav-based...

Iphone Switch From Windows to Mac questions

I have the iphone 3g; and I (in haste) synced it for the first time with my PC at the office rather than my mac...I know I need to re-format for changing to be able to sync with my mac....
what will I lose?
I have not loaded any music/media on to the phone...just applications. Will I lose my apps? Will I lose my contacts?
Also, my email is set up to retrieve my work email which is an exchange account; any issues there?
I am hoping that the answer is that when I set up for the mac I will keep my contacts, apps, and email settings...
Please if anyone knows the answer; HELP!
Also, how do I re-format to go to my Mac?
Cheers

No need to reformat anything, just connect to your Mac to sync.
The iPhone is designed to sync iTunes-managed media content with one and only one computer. iTunes media content includes music, videos, ringtones, photos, _and apps_. So, the apps you've loaded will be deleted. You may be able to cancel the sync and use iTunes > File menu > Transfer purchases from to move the apps into iTunes. Alternatively, as long as you're logged into the same iTunes account on the Mac, you can redownload the apps in iTunes (even paid apps can be redownloaded for free, as discussed in this linked kbase article.
Contacts will sync in both directions when managed via iTunes; if you already have contacts in Address Book, you'll be prompted to merge the contacts. You mentioned you have an Exchange account set up - if that's the case, you're actually syncing email/contacts/calendar 'over the air' and not via iTunes; thus, your contacts/email/calendar will not be affected by syncing to your Mac.

Can iPhone switch from Mac to PC?

I set up my iphone at my work which has windows. But at my home I have a Mac. So each time i plug my iPhone into my Mac nothing happens. Is there something I can do to change this???

Blake, you can use both a MAC and a PC with the same iPhone. Many posts have been made on this topic (search "sync multiple computers"). Lots of people (inculding myself) use a PC at work to sync Outlook calendar & contacts, use a MAC at home for tunes & video.

HT1947 If you add music VIDEOS to Up Next playlist, then go to look at the album cover playing screen, then go to add another song from diff playlist, no longer can see Up Next, just go to full screen mode button. Using remote app iphone 5 to play out of

If you add music videos to Up Next playlist, then go to look at the album cover playing screen, then go to add another song from different playlist, you no longer can see Up Next, just go to full screen mode button. Using remote app iPhone 5 to play out of iTunes. It looks like it works fine for regular music, but for music videos you can't see your up next unless you go back on the computer to change once you've left the screen. When using the remote app, you shouldn't need to go to iTunes on the PC to view or edit Up Next already added. See first image, you can hit upper right and get back to Up Next (second image). Third image is music video, where you can't get back to Up Next, just swap between full screen and not. I hoped 3.0.1 would have the answer, no luck!

wow, very nice review Makes me want to get a vision for myself.

I would love that feature.

I just hope that creative has better firmware support with the vision than they have had with the touch.

Switching from iPhone 5 to Samsung S6

Ok so I want to switch phones and I don't have the next plan and I don't want it. If I buy Te Samsung s6 online can I switch from my iPhone 5 to the Samsung or is that not possible

You may have to buy the S6 at retail price if you are still under contract with the other phone.
If you want to upgrade with a subsidy, you must upgrade at an ATT store or ATT online.
Start merging all your iCloud contacts to Google. Changing platforms means some data will not have an app to go to, but you can find a similar app.
BTW, I imported my iTunes library to google play to make sync with Android easier. Less trouble then I expected. Syncs much faster.
