  • 3G still won't turn off after hitting home and sleep button at same time. Any other ways to try?

    3G still won't turn off after hitting home and sleep button at same time. Any other ways to try it?

    And when you held them neither the red Off slider nor the Apple logo appeared?
    If not then your sleep button is broken, you will need to get it serviced.

  • Mac book frozen, won't turn off or restart.  I don't have any programs open.

    First thing this morning my computer is frozen, it won't turn off or restart.  I don't have any programs open.

    Thanks, that didn't work a few minutes ago but it did this time.  I guess it just needed a few minutes.  Problem solved.  Thanks again!

  • Mac Mini fan won't turn off (only while powered on)

    Unlike some stories i've read while crawling around the internet trying to solve MY problem, it's not that my fan won't shut off EVER. The fan shuts down when i put it in sleep mode or shut down the Mini. No problems there. But while the computer is in operation, the fan runs non-stop.
    It wasn't always like this. In the 2.5 years i've had my Intel Mac Mini, it has more and more frequently employed the fan. As of the last couple months, the fan is now in continuous use, as long as the computer is in operation. In addition, all the programs take much longer to load, and i'm dealing with programs crashing (Firefox & Safari far more than anything), Bluetooth not functioning, and the front light on my Mini is out.
    As for the fan, the Mini is getting plenty of breathing room...even more than it had before the problem. I also have 22GB left on my Mini's hard disk.
    Are all these problems related? Am i really just working on my last thruster here? Is my dilitium crystal just about dead? Is a warp core breach imminent? I do not have AppleCare, and i don't know if the Apple Store would look at it for free if i brought it in. Any help (no matter how small) would be greatly appreciated.
    MY STUFF:
    Mac Mini - 1.66 Intel Core Duo, 2G 667 HHz DDR2 SDRAM
    Iomega MiniMax 1TB external HD (for audio/video files)
    Iomega Minimax 1TB external HD (for Time Machine)
    OSX 10.5.6

    When you start your mini from cold (after at least an hour powered down) does the fan spin up to full speed immediately, or does it start out normally and then speed up after a few minutes or so? Did you have the system open for any reason just before this behavior started?
    If you had the system open, it might be something as simple as the fan control cable that is not connected. When disconnected, the fan will run at full speed all the time.
    It the fan runs at full speed almost immediately from cold, then it would suggest one of two things: either the system is suffering from something like a loose heatsink, or there is an errant process running that is putting the system under heavy load. You can check that by opening Activity Monitor (in Applications>Utilities) at looking to see if the CPU load is consistently high. If it is, look for a process that is causing it.
    If the fan runs quietly at first, and then speeds up, after a few minutes, then it does seem likely to be a heating issue. Aside from making sure the vents around the base and on the back are clear by using a good vacuum cleaner, it's possible there is enough debris inside to obstruct the airflow. If you've opened up the system previously for any reason, now might be a good time to do so again, for a quick inspection and clean out.
    I would also perform an SMC reset if you have not already done so:
    To reset the SMC on an Intel mini:
    -From the Apple menu, choose Shut Down (or if the computer is not responding, hold the power button until it turns off).
    -Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord and any display cables.
    -Wait at least 15 seconds.
    -Plug the power cord back in, making sure the power button is not being pressed at the time.
    -Then reconnect your keyboard and mouse to the computer.
    -Press the power button on the back to start up your computer.
    And to ensure you are not suffering from a range of broad 'tuning' type issues, download a copy of YASU (http://jimmitchelldesign.com/projects/yasu/) and run all tasks. This clears cache files, resets logs files, updates prebinding, performs a permission repair and a few other tasks. After the reboot (which will be slower than usual) your system should run a little better.
    ... i don't know if the Apple Store would look at it for free if i brought it in....
    You can make an appointment at the 'genius Bar' of your local Apple store - they will look at your system for free, and help with a diagnosis. What they generally wont do without charging for it is anything that involves opening the system up. However, it's worth paying them a visit for a bit of hands on work!

  • Help!  Ipod won't turn off after disconnecting

    Okay I've had my Ipod nano for like 3 weeks. I've used it once. It worked fine when I first got it and after my battery ran out I haven't used it for about a week. When I got it back I hooked it up to my computer and updated the stuff on it as well as let it charge. After is says to safely disconnect, I disconnect it but it automatically turns off and won't turn back on. I've tried resetting it and nothing works. I thought the battery was dead but I've left it plugged in (not only USB on my computer but also tried an outlet) and it never completely charged. I've even left it plugged in overnight (well over the 4 hours it's supposed to charge). I have no idea what to do (It also took like at least a full day to completely charge the first time I've had it)

  • Apple TV won't turn off after 2.2 update

    I was just wondering if anyone else has this problem after the new update.
    After updating to the new 2.2 software......I am now unable to turn the device off. I used to just hold the center button down for 5-6 seconds and it would turn off. I didn't want to leave it on all the time since I only use it once or twice a week. But now.......doing the same thing has no effect on it at all. Is this happening to anyone else ? I know a lot of people just leave it on all the time, and I guess I could do that as well. Hahaha.......... seems I don't have any choice now. Is this a new feature that comes with the 2.2 software ?

    Because of Genius and another feature, the ability to put the AppleTV into standby has changed. Either you can go to the main menu and press Play/Pause for 6 seconds (like you used to, but only works from main menu), or you can go into Settings where there is a new StandBy option that can be selected.

  • Golf Radio won't turn off after reinstalling CK-10...

    For some time I've been using my CK-100 but without a switched 12v supply which means that the unit remained on after turning off the ignition but otherwise with no problems.  I've recently bought a new loom and fed the switched 12v from the cig lighter so the CK-100 switches off/on and with the radio being fed from the big multipin plug rather than the speaker outlet with no problems but the radio often doesn't switch off when I remove the key.  During normal operation there is no indication that there might be a loose connection and I have checked them all.  The only thing I can think of is that I also updated the software to v4.5 so I'm wondering if that is causing any problems, does it think that there is a call outstanding although it doesn't mute the radio.
    Any help appreciated
    Phil

    Sorry about the delay, Alan.
    It's a possibility, although I'm used to seeing it more with older Symantec security suites rather than just the Antivirus. (For example, NIS 2005.)
    The mechanism is two-part. The first part is that if there's an issue with iTunes rules in the firewall, sometimes the iTunes.exe process doesn't shut down after you "close" iTunes. Sometimes it can't even be ended in Task manager.
    The second part is that security suites often try to have a component being the last item running in memory before the PC shuts down (because some malware attacks during the shut down procedure. Because the iTunes.exe can't be stopped, it tries to "outlast" that process ... and you get spectacularly slow shutdowns on the PC.
    ... So we'd better check to see if something like that is afoot ...
    Restart the PC (power off?) And launch iTunes. Quit iTunes. Bring up your Task manager. Go to the processes tab. Click the "Image name" header to sort the processes alphabetically.
    Is iTunes.exe still running even though iTunes has supposedly been shut down?

  • Display won't turn off after locking.

    My 701 running on belle fp1 doesn't turn off the display after locking the phone?
    It's just keeps the display always on.
    Restarting solves the problem but this is happening again and again.
    Please solve this Nokia.

    Solved!

    No,
    I noticed that popclock at the top left yesterday when I pressed the menu key after lock.
    Actually I have lot of apps installed on the memory card like games and apps.
    After firmware reinstall at Nokia care, I inserted back my memory card and copied all mass memory backup from my pc.
    After stating the phone after inserting memory card, phone started to display installing without cancel button and I got back almost all of the apps.
    Maybe this is caused the popclock or Nokia bubbles to show and turn the display always on.
    Today I had no problem at all.

  • My iPod touch 5th gen won't turn on after updating to iOS 8 using the computer,help!?

    On my computer (using windows) I tried to update my iPod touch 5th gen to iOS 8 using iTunes, using this website http://www.gottabemobile.com/2014/09/17/the-secret-to-skipping-long-ios-8-downlo ads-and-problems/ as a guide.
    It kept coming up with this error http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201442 after the update.
    Now my iPod won't turn on and it shows the charger with the lightening with an arrow above it pointing to the iTunes logo.
    So i plugged it into iTunes but i don't know what i'm supposed to do, any help?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Q10 Won't Turn On After Update

    I am currently on Windows Phone and wanted to try Blackberry 10 as I am fan of my old Blackberry. I wanted to try it out cheap so I bought a Q10 on Ebay for $50 even though the seller said the phone had a water damaged sticker thinking I could fix it. I also bought a brand new battery from Amazon to go with it.
    So my issue is when I got the phone, it was having trouble connecting to Link and reloading the OS would fail due to connection loss, so I nuked the phone with a program to clear the phone. I also soaked the phone in isopropyl alcohol after reading that soaking it could get rid of mineral deposits on water damaged phones. After the nuke and clean, the phone does the two quick blinking red lights which (I think) means the phone has no OS on it which is what I wanted after the nuke.
    So, I plug the phone into the computer and Link recognizes it as a Q10. I have BB OS 10.2 downloaded and went to reload it. It completes the update all the way with a green LED on the whole time it is updating. When Link says to unplug the phone to let it reboot, the phone does nothing. Holding down power for any length of time can't turn on the phone. Plugging the phone into a wall charger causes the orange charging LED to flash on like it's going to start charging before quickly turning to a red LED while it stays plugged in.
    I nuked the phone and tried Autoloader which does the same thing in the end as the phone won't turn on when it unplugs from the computer after updating. Seeing as how the phone is recognized by Link, seems to update correctly with the green LED on, and can be nuked fine, is there any way I can get this phone to work? It seems as though the battery isn't charging because once I unplug from the computer / wall, nothing seems to do anything and the LED doesn't flash. It is a new battery, so could the water have caused an issue on the circuit board which is not letting the battery charge?
    Any help is appreciated, and I am willing to try pretty much anything and have decent knowledge of software / hardware. I have done tons of searching for similar issues to no success, but have not found this exact problem. Thanks in advance for any help!

    OK, you bought a new battery which I would recommend, and it still is NOT charging or powering on.
    You've done this already >> Make sure you let it charge with the wall outlet charger for several hours and then with it still connected to the wall outlet charger, remove the battery and reinsert... what happens?

  • How to restore my iphone 5 that won't turn on after updating to iOS 7.0.2

    I have my iphone 5 and recently tried to update to the new iOS 7.0.2 but it appears to have frozen with a black screen as the background and an apple with a little progress bar. My lock screen is broken and so there is no way to hold the home button and lock screen at the same time to attempt to reset it. Is there any other way to restore my iphone. Please i'm so worried about it, it has been in this freeze for over 4 hours!!

  • IPad won't turn on after update to ios7

    After updating to ios7 on my iPad, it would keep resetting itself and show the apple logo until finally starting up.  Over a few days this got worse and worse and eventually stopped working where I would have to hold the home and on/off buttons to reset it.  I have now reached a point where it no longer starts up.  Having went to an apple store they say they can't identify the issue as they can't start it up and offered me to pay £199 to have it replaced (how very nice of them).  I have had online chats with an advisor and a senior advisor who have diagnosed this as a 'hardware' issue!!!
    Guess what apple, no it is not, this is a result of the updgrade to ios7!!!  My iPad worked perfect before and I will not be paying £199 to replace it!!!
    If anybody else has had similar problems please let me know.
    Thanks.

    Try this reset ...
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings

  • Phone goes into standby and wont turn off after update!!! please help me as hate it

    On Friday I turned my phone off as per usual and turned back on in the morning to find the phone totally different.
    The red lock button now only sends the phone into like a sleep mode, and i cant find any where to turn it off.
    The screens keep fading down and I have re set the backlight to not dim but some thing is over riding it.
    I used to love my phone and now hate it so much, is there a way of booting this update off my phone and putting it back to how it was. I tried to restore and its the same and then tried to put the phone back to previous settings I had stored on my lap top but again nothing.
    I now have some new blackberry software on the lap top too which now does not even recognise my phone and there for the past restore points I had.
    My daughters bold 9700 does the same thing now too, please please help

    Hiya!
     Blackberry doesnt actually "turn off" it only goes into a standby mode (press and hold the end call button). To fully power it down, you would perform a battery pull.

  • My phone won't turn on after updating ios 6.1

    I've updated ios 6.1. The phone went off durign the night (it had 60% battery).
    Now it only turns on plugged to the wall socket (not if I plug it to the USB port) and it shows the "iOS 6 Configuration" screen, telling me to connect to iTunes, but if I unplug it to connect to the USB, it turns off.
    If I plug it to the USB, it keeps showing the little apple, and turns off, again and again. It never gets to the same screen of the "iOS 6 configuration".
    I can´t seem to turn it on with de DFU mode plugged to the computer.

    Hi elmauki,
    Error 21
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Error 1602
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
