Is anyone experiencing electrical discharges into the ears while using the iPhone 5 or 5S earbuds?

I have been experiencing at first mild, then much stronger electrical discharge in my ears while wearing the iPhone 5/5S earbuds. I went back to the Apple store, where they immediately exchanged them for a new pair. Yet upon first use the same problem recurred, leaving me with lingering pain in my ears. This has never happened with any other earbuds before. I read that it's static electricity caused by excessive dryness in the air, polyester clothing, etc. none of these conditions applied to me.
Are other people experiencing this problem?

If I am not mistaken, the inablilty to use data and phone is a limitation of the LTE format. Not a Apple specific problem.

White bright light on unlocking the phone while using the touch ID

Whenever i unlock my phone using touch finger id , a bright white light comes up on the left top corner.

Hey there Vishesh Narang,
It sounds like you are getting a flash of light in the upper left corner of your screen when you unlock the phone using Touch ID. I would start by quitting all the open apps first:
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
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If it persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes with this article:
iOS: How to back up and restore your content
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
And restore it from your backup with this article to delete the current iOS installation, and install a fresh copy
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

My ipod Nano generation 7 shuts down unexpectedly while using the NIKE app, has anyone experienced this problem?

My ipod Nano generation 7 shuts down unexpectedly while using the NIKE app, has anyone experienced this problem?

This is not a problem I have only had with 7th gen. iPod. I have had this problem with the 5th gen. It goes back a few years. Nike and Apple are aware of this. Nothing has been done. It appears that when the iPod voice commences (whether to update you on the status of your run) and you touch a button to prompt a mileage update or song change yourself (or even brush the device wrong when taking off a jacket), the operating system overloads and cannot sort it out. It then shuts down and reboots. Your mileage is lost. So sorry. Have a nice day.
Love the other aspects of running with a nano (small and light weight). I can keep it high and dry and out of the way. Like the software. Use it almost everyday. Hate the unknown dropped runs. I have logged over 2,000 miles with these devices. Today I lost another 3 miles - probably the 30-40th time it has happened. Frustration is somewhere between time for another device to time for another system - Map My Run indeed!
This probably occurs with my iPod once or twice a month. Went to the Apple Store - three times. The first time was maybe two years ago and they first tried some magic dust and then on the second visit, they swapped out my nano - it was a bit flimsy. The problem returned. I then upgraded. The problem returned. The third time they did a reset and it seemed to help. Then, it returned. But to download an older software version, verify the fidelity of the UBS cable, jump from computer to computer, make a trip to the Apple store, and perform so many two steps on one leg just to get what we paid for seems . . . well, lame. And, Apple told us the thingy would work using all the different computers and software (Vista, Nike, etc. etc.).
Oh, one other thing. The Apple Store told me to complain to Nike. Nike said their software is fine. This is like dealing with General Motors or the government - but, worse. Not my problem man. See the guy over there. Got it.
I note that no one from Apple is jumping in the chain here with a fix. So much for customer exuberance. Generally like Apple. We have about 20 Apple devices in our family (desktops, portables, phones, pods, tablets) and are lining up for the watches . . . but, maybe Apple is an idea who time has come and gone, . . . like the wind.

I plug my computer into my stereo and use the remote app on my iPhone to control it. How can I control my wires iPad with the remote app on my iphone when it is plugged into the stereo? they are different iTunes accounts.

I think this is probably a sign that your network could be better than it is.
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first.

New Mail Notification Buzzing in your ear while on the Phone

Has anyone else had this problem...?
I find it strange that the phone buzzes in your ear while on the phone when a new email arrives. I find myself having to ask the person on the other end to repeat themselves when in the middle of a conversation and all of a sudden "...BBBUUUZZZZ..."...
Has anyone come across this, and/or figured a way around it...?
BTW- Love the phone...
PowerBook G4, Intel Mini (x2), iPod, iPhone Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Good Ideas, but it would seem that the phone would be "silent" while on a call, except for another call, of course...
Just an observation...
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

WAR within EAR is using the same classloader as the EAR

Hi all,
From documentation, I understand that each WAR web application that are packaged within EAR should have a separate (child) classloader and should not be using the same classloader as the EAR. I have two WAR files and some JAR files all packaged and deployed as an EAR. Using the Classloader Analysis Tool, I think the two web applications (WARs) are actually using the same classloader as the EAR. I say this because:
1. The application class loader listed for the web apps has the same hashcode as the class loader listed for the EAR.
2. I tried to add the <prefer-web-inf-classes> element within the WAR's weblogic.xml file and it doesn't seem to work. The web app is still using classes loaded in the EAR. This is consistent with my observation that the classloader for the WARs has the same hashcode as the classloader for the EAR - therefore I think they are using the same classloader.
I don't understand this behavior. I thought WARs are supposed to be using different/child classloaders from the EAR by default. Do I have to specifically declare my own customer <classloader-structure> within weblogic-application.xml in order to have child classloaders for the WARs within my EAR?
Thanks for any help.

We are doing it currently as we are switching over from Exchange 5.5 to OCS. We set up a profile using the Oracle connector and then go into properties and add the Exchange account. We used this method to move files from the Exchange server to the Oracle server by having both profiles running.

I can't sign into the itunes store using the 3G network?

I can't sign into the itunes store using the 3G network?
I keep getting the error "Can't connect to the iTunes Store"
This also makes it impossible for me to use itunes match with the 3G network.

I've got this as well and it seems to have affected only the Music and Home pages - do a search in the search bar and you will get to the films etc. Looks like somone goofed! If anyone from Apple checks this out, mine is the UK store. Home page and Music pages only affected.

Anyone clean their mac using the disk utility using the repair disk permissions??

anyone clean their mac using the disk utility using the repair disk permissions??

No. Threads don't hurt anything. If your computer is not functioning properly perhaps you need to try some basic maintenance. Let's start by having you do this:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Next, try booting into Safe Mode then immediately restart normally. Safe mode is going to take a while so be patient. It's slow.
Next, create a new user account. Log out of your account then log into the new account. Try using iPhoto and the publishing button. Do they work now?
If you still have a problem, then do the following. If you don't want to go through the above then just start with the following and forget the others above.
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

How can someone use a stolen iphone? does erasing the phone (which I feel like I should do) make it easier for the thief to use the iphone? If I don't erase it, it doesn't seem like anyone should be able to use the phone because of my password.

how can someone use a stolen iphone? does erasing the phone (which I feel like I should do) make it easier for the thief to use the iphone? If I don't erase it, it doesn't seem like anyone should be able to use the phone because of my password. Also, is it possible to retrieve anything that has been sent to the phone (i.e. text messages) since it was stolen through icloud? The "find my iphone" app says the device is offline but it rings when I call my number -- any idea how that would be the case? Thanks!!

You have a password, so good move on your part. Whether you erase it or the thief does, they still get to use the iPhone as theirs. Which is more important (pick one), protecting your data or punishing the thief?
Ringing occurs at the carrier. Chances are you're going to voicemail after only two or three rings. If you have an iCloud backup also a good move. Re-read my question in the first paragraph.

Hi Mary,
I don't remember those arrows in 10.6, only 10.7 & up!?
I have 10.6.8, as you do. To make your Safari full screen, make sure you have the left hand side of your safari page moved all the way to the left. Then move your cursor to the BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER of the safari page, and simply drag your page towards the lower right hand corner of the screen. NOTE: you will see a series of lines on the bottom right corner of the page, indicating where to place you cursor arrow.

In Mail 7.3 on my Retina MacBook Pro on OS 10.9.4, how can I type from the keyboard into a mail message using the Apple Symbols font?
When I select the Apple Symbols font from the list accessed from under Format/"Show fonts"/collection-all fonts/Apple Symbol, and then continue typing, I get normal letters, if in a slightly different font.
How can I type using the Apple Symbol font? I want to use that font to include keyboard and cursor selections of actual screen symbols to help write easily understood explicit computer lesson emails to my 92 year-old mom from a few hundred miles away.

G'day,
I need some help, i am trying to type into an adobe document using the typewriter function.
However every time after i type the text vanishes. It is almost as if the text is white and vanishes into the background.
This is not the case as the works are not visible regardless of the background color.
The text box remains available and can be edited if clicked on, also if i double click on it the typed words become visible and editable, however once i close the box i cannot see them on the screen.
I would appreciate any help i can get, i cant seem to do anything using properties or view.
Thanks
