Mute button goes on all the time

i find my mute button goes on all the time unless i put the phone in speaker mode.  I believe its the sensor but is there anyway to  fix it without going to the genius bar.
Also the silent button doesnt work on the side.

If your silent button doesn't work, and you think the sensor is malfunctioning, just how do you think these can be fixed without going to the genius bar?

  • MacBook Retina 13 fan goes up all the time and wlan crashes every few minutes

    Hello,
    I've got a MacBook Retina 13" Haswell edition and as soon I open any kind of app or if I just idle at the desktop the fan goes up to 100% and the temperature of the CPU goes over 90celsius all the time.
    Also my wifi connection drops all the time im not using my thunderbolt bridge which is super annoying, it can only be fixed by tuning the wifi on and off and after 10 minutes it disconnects again.
    is there any way to fix it?

    Backup your data or Home folder. Boot from your Snow Leopard installer disc. Select your language and click on the Continue button. Wait for the menubar to appear then select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard drive from the DU sidebar, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended, Journaled, then click on the Erase button. When the process is finished quit DU and return to the installer. Complete the installation.
    After you have reinstalled OS X you can restore your data from the backup.

    I removed the processor, still does it.
    I have updated the bios, to version F.17 and there is a newer one I think to version F.19

  • My screen goes black all the time!

    Ever since I installed Leopard, my screen will go black if I don't type anything for just a few minutes. (I can barely see what's on the screen ... BARELY)
    My laptop is plugged in and receiving power so that's the reason.
    I have checked my power settings at that is not the issue.
    I have checked the timing on my screen saver and that is not the issue. (my screen saver doesn't start when this occurs)
    Does any have any suggestions?

    Sorry you're having this problem.
    A few years ago we had a similar issue on one of our machines, it was an early MacBook. Ended up being a cracked circuit connection on the motherboard. Changes in temperature caused the crack to expand and contract resulting in a shut-down followed by an automatic reboot. Sometimes over-and-over. I understood from AppleCare at the time that those symptoms could have also been any number of things including a intermittent issue with a powersupply.
    If you take it back to the Apple Store at some point, I would ask them to have it run some CPU intensive tasks that closely resemble what you are doing when the screen goes black. It took us several try's to find the problem. Calling AppleCare each time to discuss it and troubleshoot before making the trips to the Apple Store really moved things along. In fact, it wasn't until the Apple Store had cracked the case from the inside that things kicked into a higher gear and AppleCare phone support sent out a pre-paid FedX package to send it to a refurbishing facility. Never a problem since and I know the people who have the machine today.
    PS Can identify with the trip to the Apple Store, our closest one is in Knoxville, 2hrs from us.

  • Internet going off all the time

    My internet has been constantly going off and on for months now. It always happens in the change of the seasons when it is getting warm. Ive had comcast internet since 2011& it has happened every year. The technicians come out and tell me theres nothing wrong with my modem or anything in the house. They put a request for maintenance to come out and check the pole . Nothing ever changes. Its so aggravating to pay for a service that never works correctly. When it works, its wonderful. Spring and summer months are awful! Last week makes 5 times the technicians have visited my house since May! Its about time for somebody at the cooperate level to do something. All my neighbors have already switched internet and tv providers- do I have to switch too!?

  • My MacBook late 2008 fan goes on all the time and is very loud is this normal

    It's weird I will be on safari or on iTunes or other apps and it will turn on and wear down battery is this normal

    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g goes offline all the time

    My husband's laptop shows the printer as being off, but it isn't.  It's on.  He needs to print desperately!  He is using Windows 7. 
    I am able to print on that printer with MY laptop, however, which tells me it's something funky on his end.  But what?  I have no idea and he is about to pull his hair out.
    Any help/ideas/suggestions will be appreciated.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    After digging around the forums for a bit, I did find a bit of help on a similar post.  Going into the Control Panel, Printers, right-clicking on the printer in question, and then clicking on Properties, I clicked on Port and asked my husband what it showed for him on his computer.  His showed a different port.  I said, "Do you see one that says this?" which right now I don't remember, but he said 'yes' and I asked him to change it.  He did, and then he tried to print his document, and voila!  Yippee!  He'll change it also on his notebook.

  • HT201412 my ipod screen goes white all the time and shuts down so i can barely go on it

    once i get on it, 5 seconds later the screen goes  white and shuts down

    - Try:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPhone 5 lock button not working all the time

    Basically I can only press the left side of the lock button for it to work. The middle and right side do not work.
    If I bring it to apple store does anyone know what version iOS the replacement phone would be?

    Nobody knows what iOS a replacement unit is running, only employees of the Apple Service Centre. But one thing for sure is that they are usually running anything before iOS 6.1.3,

  • How can I configure my Macbook Air to always show the menu bar when in full-screen?  I hate, hate, hate it popping up and then going away all the time.

    I cannot find a way to change this in System Preferences.  When I have applications open full screen, my menu bar disappears.  Then when I try to move between tabs, I find it is always popping up & then disappearing.  I really just want to set up my computer so that the menu bar always displays in the foreground. I find this popping up & disappearing intrusive and annoying.  How can I fix this?  I hate, hate, hate this about my MAC...
    I have searched the full User Guide, Quick Start Guide, etc.  and cannot find a way to fix this.

    Don't use the full screen arrow in the top right corner of the window.  Instead, use the green + in the top left corner.  That takes the window full screen just below the menu bar.

  • Nvidia GPU on all the time, please help

    Hey guys,
    So I've been noticing that my power button is almost all the time orange meaning that my nvidia card is active, I have gone through the nvidia control panel and changed the global settings to intel to save some battery. When I first bought it, it used to automatically switch the graphics card (Power button used to switch between white and orange), but for some it now just doesn't change anymore. To be clear I have not changed any settings so I have no idea why this is happening.
    Any type of Help would be greatly appriciated
    thanks

    Quote from: TwelveDiamond;114704
    Sorry for the late reply, for some reason I got no notifications telling me that anyone had responded, anyways, my nvidia control settings are stock, meaning I didn't change a thing, and I have the new graphics card drivers (the newest one was for assasins creed thing, don't exactly remember the number), it did fix itself for a few minutes, but then it went back to the orange light
    Quote
    Which model do you have and what's the graphics driver version you're using?
    Check the graphics driver version in NVIDIA Control Panel> System Information. (right click on the desktop> NVIDIA Control Panel> System Information> Driver version)
    Also please tell which model do you have.
    Make sure you try the suggestion we provided and give us an update if the problem is solved.

  • My phone is dropping calls, doesn't ring all the time-goes directly to voice mail, do no recieve alert on when a text is recieved

    1-My phone does not ring all the time upon recieving an incoming call, it goes directly to voice mail.
    2- Not recieving alert tone upon recieving a text message.
    3- Dropping calls also

    We have the same problem widespread in our company with iPhone 4's and 5's:
    - Fails to establish the call, dials but nothing happens
    - Drops the call for no reason even though signal strength is good
    - Recevie text alerts to notify of voicemail when the handset has not rung nor does it show missed calls
    We migrated someone to a Samsung Galaxy S4 for a month and all these issues went away. Nothing to do with alert tones turned down or faulty silent switches.
