light on iphone4 flash will not turn off even when phone is powered down, now it is overheated and says not usable till cooled, but it won't cool. I'm afraid it will start a fire. Aside from breaking it, putting in in a metal pail in the yard, or putting it in a bucket of water, what can be done to keep it from setting a fire. It is so hot it burns my skin if i touch it, so bright, it hurts to look at, so hot there is now a warning that it is not usable till it cools down, but there is no way to cool it down.
more info, this happened after update to 7.0.2, and also wifi will no longer turn on since update. I took it in to apple store, it had one month left on warrenty, and they said that it would have had to get wet for this to happen. I thought that maybe it got wet through my jeans pocket in the rain or something so I didn't pursue it. Now of course, it is out of warranty by a month.

My ipod naaIno is stuck in the lock position, my hold switch will not turn off even when I move it. I have tried restoring it and resetting it and it still comes back on in the hold/locked postion. It will only play when placed on a docking station and then I cant scroll to pick songs, I can only go to next song using buttons on docking station.
You will need to have the hold switch replaced.

Hi, my iPad suddenly froze while downloading a free kid's game, the loudness/soft symbol just kept on appearing no button works even the slide off/cancel. Then it suddenly turned off. I searched for troubleshooting guide, I tried pressing power/home buttons as instructed, charged/uncharged, and connected through usb using itunes but to no avail. What have gone wrong? I bought this in Vietnam but am here in the Philippines and still under warranty. Could I bring this unit to a service center of apple here in the Philippines?
Did you hold the home/power buttons for ten to fifteen seconds until the apple appears?
If still bad, try a restore from within iTunes.
If still bad, take it to an apple vendor for them to test/reinitialize for you. -

Time and date settings change when phone is powered down (not shut off)..
I recently installed the iOS 8 update and immediately noticed that the time and date settings would change when I powered down my iPhone. I did not turn off my phone, only clicked the button to power down or save power. I have tried all the fixes, suggestions, etc., but I am still having issues. In the power down state, I am able to receive phone calls or texts but when I go into my phone, the time and date will be off. It stops from the moment I click the button to power down the phone. Please don't get this confused with turning off the phone completely. This happens when I click the button for power down or power save, however it is described.
So, how do I fix it? Is the app/software for the clock the problem? Is the battery distribution the problem? For some reason, in power down mode, the clock is not receiving constant power in order to keep accurate time. It stops the moment I click the button. Any suggestions? fixes, etc. I could try. Apple support techs were absolutely no help what-so-ever.This sounds exactly like what is going on with my phone, http://www.idownloadblog.com/2012/10/19/iphone-5-date-time-glitch/

Rotation lock will not turn off even though on mute
Hi I accidentally turned on the rotation lock and although I have reclicked mute & restarted several times, it will not unlock/allow me to rotate
In settings you have the option to set orientation lock for the upper right hand side button above the volume control. You can also choose to use that button as a mute button. Or, if you double click your home button and swipe your botom apps to the right, there is an orientation lock icon. You touch it to turn on or turn off........

MBP will not turn on even when plugged in
My laptop was not plugged in but had plenty of battery (it's only 6 months old and has a great battery life - I don't leave it constantly plugged in and let the battery die all the way often) when all of a sudden it just shut off. I don't think I heard any beeps or sounds. I tried to plug it in but nothing; the charger light just flashes amber and green very dimly and the battery indicator on the side shows a dead battery. No liquids were near the laptop and I'm very very careful about overheating. I tried to SMC reset. I borrowed a roommate's charger but still nothing.
I did plug in my iPhone USB cable to it right before it turned off, I wonder if that short circuited it or something? I live over an hour from the nearest Apple store and I'm a college student with no car anyway. Already tried my school tech support which told me they don't deal with hardware problems and plus last time I sent a laptop there they charged me almost $300 to tell me to get a new computer and retrieved almost none of my files.You can't, unless you're technically expert and have all the necessary test equipment and tools, and don't mind voiding any existing warranty. Otherwise, take it to Apple or whoever provides iPhone service in your area.
Before going that route, try charging it with the AC adaptor for at least 1 hour. If it gets hot again, stop ASAP. -
IMac Will Not Turn On (Even When Cool and SMC Reset)
Hi all.
I have recently had a VERY ANNOYING problem with my iMac. It will not turn on. No matter what. I have reset the SMC (unplug, wait whatever, plug back in etc.) and have cooled it down with time and a battery fan held up to the case, but it still will not turn on.
I am really getting sick of this iMac and feel like sending it back, but I know that there is some sort of easy fix out there somewhere. I do not want to take it to the Apple Store again (2 times in the 5 days Ive had it already).
I read somewhere else that the older iMacs have stuffed up logic boards, which causes the computer's 'max operating temperature' to be much lower than usual, causing unnecessary 'overheating'. Is there some way to disable auto-shutdowns because of temperature, or raise the maximum allowed?
Please help, I just need to upgrade my Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 (from 10.6.3) to fix some software problems!
Thank you so much!
-Michael
Oh yes, iMac stats:
1.5GB of RAM
2.0GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo processor
Early 2006 20" White iMac
Anything else you need to know about it, just ask!Ok, the Snow Leopard disc did not have the AHT thingy on it, but the Tiger one did. Currently running extended test. Had to reset the SMC to get the thing to turn on. I will do the test twice, then reset the PRAM and give you the results.
I have come to a conclusion about one thing: Old iMacs are very fussy and take a lot of work to keep them going, but are very satisfying to use. -

HT1430 My iPad will not turn on even when charged
My iPad wont turn on
Hi bella,
Try a reset: Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears. If it does, your in business. Just wait for it to finish resetting and the Home screen will display.
Cheers,
