Is anyone else experiencing screen activation issues during calls?

I got my iPhone in the first batch from VF. Since then I have not experienced any of the issues reported as common faults such as the signal loss - however, I have a new one - the screen on the phone activates itself after a length of time (sometimes a while into a call, sometimes after only a couple of minutes) - this means, when I am happily chatting away the screen activates and my face is happily touching all the buttons on the screen - majority of the 'end call' button! At first I thought I was going crazy, maybe it was me holding it funny, but now I know I'm not!
After doing a bit of googling a few o2 users have reported this issue too - does anyone else have this problem?
Its very irritating. For example, last night I was on the phone to my partner, and the call ended twice - the first time I actually managed to type out a very garbled email to someone!!

It's the proximity sensor, and there are hundreds of posts on here about it. It's not affecting every device, so make an appointment with an Apple Genius, pop instore and get it swapped out.

  • Is anyone else experiencing battery life issues due to iOS 8.1.3?

    I know this may seem ridiculous but after having updated my iPhone 6, 64 GB to iOS 8.1.3, yesterday January 27, I noticed my battery isn't lasting anywhere near as long as it was before this.
    Usually the way I use my phone by 5pm every evening, I have at least 65 - 70% battery life, today I'm at 44% and know for sure I've used it less than usual, which is why I came here.
    I want to thank everyone who replies in advance.

    I just started to google experiences from others today, as since upgrading three mobiles from 8.1.2 -> 8.1.3 (iPhone 5, iPhone 5s and iPhone 6 Plus) all of them suddenly died overnight.
    Charged this morning all from 0% -> 100% and still things don't seem to be correct anymore. Based on below pictures the phones don't go to standby anymore? I haven't used at all iPhone 5 nor iPhone 5s today whereas I made some calls with iPhone 6 Plus. All of mobile were unplugged at 100% same time this afternoon.
    First time this has happened, in case the mobiles, ALL of them, suddenly start to behave like this.

  • Has anyone else experienced a glitch when making cuts? Many of my cuts slip a frame or two when moved from source monitor to sequence and it started with the latest update

    Once I updated to the latest version of Premiere 2014.2 I started experiencing a glitch when my cuts would slip a frame or two. At first it was randomly. Then I had footage I was using that was an .avi file that I converted to .m4v using vlc and now in my Premiere project, are having the greatest difficulty keeping my original cut that I create in my source monitor. When I bring it into my timeline, the new frames are added. When I double click the clip into my source monitor, I see that my original cuts remain, not shifted. Looking back in my timeline, unwanted frames are still there. I have to bring it into my source monitor to guess where the right frame would be to compensate for this. It happens more often with the converted files but still happens to .mp4s as well. I am using a Mac Pro 15-in from Early 2011. Thanks for the advice in advance!

    I downloaded and installed the latest iTunes 11.2.1 (1) update yesterday. It appears to have corrected this issue to a large extent: plugging in an iThing to sync no longer seems to cause explosive growth in memory footprint. leaks reports a much slower growth in dead memory:
    leaks -nocontext -nostacks iTunes | grep total
    Process 27307: 353 leaks for 726488 total leaked bytes.
    20 minutes later:
    leaks -nocontext -nostacks iTunes | grep total
    Process 27307: 364 leaks for 1256056 total leaked bytes.
    20 minutes later, after DLing updated apps and doing another sync:
    leaks -nocontext -nostacks iTunes | grep total
    Process 27307: 364 leaks for 1256056 total leaked bytes.
    Memory allocation started at 70Mb, grew to 200Mb, and appears to have stabilized there.
    I'm going to keep an eye on it overnight, but it looks as if this may not be a complete system killer as it was before, at least in my case. In any case, I can highly recommend this latest iTunes update for anyone else experiencing this specific issue. Updating bug 16772016 with this new information.

  • Has anyone else had problems activating 'free' Open Type fonts using Font Book/Mavericks?

    Lately I'm having trouble getting free fonts to activate in Font Book. Running 10.9.2. Anyone else experiencing the same issues?

    I’d suggest uninstalling:
    Blackberry software
    the cycling74 driver
    Any HP “utilities” (regarding the HP IO. Apple told developers to stop using Startup Items back in 10.3.)
    any Adobe software you have (the “not loaded” ones are not loading because they’re incompatible.
    the com.apple.CSConfig one.
    facebook
    google keystone agent
    Unfortunately you have a lot of very questionable old, incompatible, and probably bad software on your Mac that is not playing well with Mavericks.  Some of these can be difficult to uninstall, particularly if you are not familiar with poking around in Mac system folders.
    You might consider cutting to the chase and doing a clean install:
    backup your documents and passwords, network settings, etc.
    Completely erase your hard drive
    Reinstall mavericks and your apps from scratch (not from backups)
    and finally replacing your documents.
    It can be a good thing. Spring cleaning. If you want to go this route, let me know, I can give you some more detailed suggestions for how to do it. The advantage is you can get Mavericks running really fast and reliably, and then be more selective about what you reinstall. A lot of the stuff you have on there is probably from apps you don't even use anymore (like for your Blackberry), or that really aren't necessary.

  • When I got a new iPhone5, I experienced short battery life, and system sofware issues were not the cause. The camera also takes a blury picture regardless of lighting and I have the black one. Has anyone else experienced similar problems?

    When I got a new iPhone5, I experienced short battery life, and system sofware issues were not the cause. The camera also takes a blury picture regardless of lighting and I have the black one. Has anyone else experienced similar problems?

    What makes you so sure it isn't software?
    The camera can be focused by take the point of focus on the touch screen.
    If it is new as you said, it should be under warranty. Make a Genius Bar appointment or contact Apple with a repair request.

  • Mac mini crashing into the login screen. Anyone else experiencing the same and know of a solution?

    I have a Mac mini (mid-2010) with 5GB of RAM and running OS X Lion 10.7.2 and lately I've been noticing it crash and take me directly to the login screen. After I sign back in everything reboots to where I left off. I believe the problem is related to Safari. I normally have many instances of Safari browser windows open and I'm wondering if that might be the issue? Is anyone else experiencing this problem and have they found any remedies?

    Note the time it freezes. That upon next successful start open the Console app in the Utilities folder and look for associated log entries at that time and post them here

  • After upgrade to Lion, iMovie 11 won't recognize my ReadyNas disk.  Anyone else experiencing application NAS connectivity issues after upgrading to Lion?

    I have a ReadyNas NV+ which I use as NAS storage.  I make a lot of home movies in iMovie 11 (mostly family movies of my daughter growing up) which fills up my local HDD fairly quickly.  I setup iMovie 11 when I was using Snow Leopard to connect to my NAS as an additional disk in the event library and project.  I would move events and projects after I finalized and shared them to the NAS disk in iMovie so it would both clear up space on my local HDD but still be available in the iMovie 11 application.
    After I upgraded to Lion, I can no longer see the NAS disk in either the project library or event library.  I'm concerned if I have created a condition where I won't be able to access the projects and events which I moved to the NAS disk when I upgraded to Lion.  Has anyone else experienced this issue and has anyone else found a solution to this?  Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    Did that work for you?  I was looking at that too, but was discouraged by having to use a sparsebundle given Snow Leopard had such great NAS support. 
    FYI to everyone else, I upgraded my ReadyNAS firmware to 4.1.8.  NetGear indicated the following updates with the nre firmware, but it didn't fix this problem:
         New features and enhancements
         1. Added support for Mac OS X 10.7 “Lion”.
         2. Added warning when NFS access to home shares is enabled.
         3. Added a redirect for http://<host>/ip to https.
         4. Added enhancements to advanced AFP permission settings.
         5. Provide download links for exported users and groups instead of asking for email.
         6. Updated ReadyNAS Remote to the latest revision.
         Bug fixes
         1. Fixed javascript error in FrontView.
         2. Delay auto power-off if backup jobs are still queued.
         Limitations
         1. IE 6 no longer supported.
         2. Drives greater than 2TB are not supported.
    I found this link which I thought had some useful information: http://carryflag.blogspot.com/2010/06/imovie-event-library-on-network-drive.html
    Some people reported success with the terminal command:
         defaults write -app iMovie allowNV -bool true
    But apparantly, after the Lion update, fewer people reported success with it.  Still looking though... If anyone else has more symptoms to add, please let me know.  I might try to use a sniffer program and see if I can pull a packet capture.  That might reveal some info.... 
    On another note, has anyone had any problems connecting to their Time Capsule in the same fashion?  I had an idea of connecting a USB Raid Array to it and connecting through the TC, but wanted to know if anyone had any thoughts or experience with that....  Thanks.

  • HT4623 I updated my phone yesterday to ios7.0.4 and have lost the mail icon along the bottom of the screen which sits with safari, phone and the music icon. Has anyone else experienced this?

    my phone is an iphone 4 and after the update to ios7.0.4 yesterday, i have lost all email facility. I dont have any email icon or button across the bottom of the phone which sits next to the phone, safari and music buttons. Has anyone else experienced this?? Thanks in advance

    Hi kylie,
    The Mail app cannot be deleted, so it is there somewhere. Look at all of your other Home screens to see if you can find it.
    If you cannot, do a spotlight search to see if it got accidently moved into a folder: swipe down in the center of the screen to bring up the search bar - type in Mail - you should see the Mail icon in the search results. If it got moved into a folder, you will see the folder name on the right side. If it is in a folder, open the folder, and tap and hold the Mail icon until it wiggles, then slide it out and back to the place where you want it to be.
    If that doesn' work, you can also go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout. This will move all of your icons into the original order that they were on the phone. You may have to move stuff around after this to where you want it to be, but all of the Apple system apps will be on the first Home screen.
    Cheers,
    GB

    Since upgrading to the newest ios 6.1.2 itunes isn't showing my app list on the left side of the screen, nor does it show all of my self made movies, only the purchased ones. Anyone else experiencing a similar problem? The iTunes store and most of the other features show up but other normal features seem to be missing too. I wish I hadn't upgraded. Anyone else having this problem???? 

    If you are talking about iTunes on your computer use the iTunes View menu item, "Show Sidebar".
    If not, I have no idea what you are describing.

  • Is anyone else experiencing password issues?  Every few weeks I have to reset mine and I'm writing them down!

    Is anyone else experiencing password issues?  Every few weeks I have to reset mine and I'm writing them down!

    If you are receiving repeated password reset e-mails, there are two possibilities.
    One is that they are simply phishing e-mails. Do not click on any links in those e-mails, and do not respond to them in any way.
    The other is that someone is trying to hack your Apple ID. You can prevent that by enabling two-factor authentication:
    Apple introduces two-factor authentication
    This will prevent anyone from even attempting a password reset without entering a special code that only you will have, and should keep in a very safe place.

  • My iPhone 5 screen starts to shake/ becomes jittery at random intervals. Is anyone else experiencing this?

    My iPhone 5 screen starts to shake/ becomes jittery at random intervals. Is anyone else experiencing this? At first I thought it was the app I had currently been using but shortly after I was at my home screen and the display started shaking rapidly in and up and down motion. Any tips on fixes or experiences of other users will be greatly appreciated.

    I'm getting this on my 5s. When scrolling fast i get random complete screen halts. When holding down on a scrollable portaion of a screen the screen jittes badly and then begins to hop all over the place.
    Seems a bit suspicious, and more than a little disappointing.
    Any thoughts anyone?
