My apple issued iPhone5 certified USB cord randomly stopped working/charging with iOS7. Help!

I've had iOS7 installed on my iPhone5 since it was originally released and as of last week, the certified cord that came with my phone is no longer recognized. We've no aftermarket cables in our posession, yet I was able to get the phone charged using a coworker's aftermarket cable - strange. I've tried resetting the phone, plugging it into my mac, windows laptop and the wall outlet with only one successful charge coming from the windows machine, interestingly enough. I'm almost out of juice on the phone - has anyone else solved this problem? I'm at a loss.
Any guidance is greatly appreciated!

If you were attempting to update then it means it was not applied properly. Otherwise, there was something in the environment that caused it to go into recovery mode.
You will need a micro usb cord to restore via iTunes. Most have one lying around, or they can be had for cheap. The other option is to take it to Apple and have them restore it.

USB Ports Randomly Stop Working

I have an HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook with Windows 7. All of the ports, 2 2.0 and 2 3.0 ports, began to randomly stop working. My mouse light would still light up, but the mouse wouldn't work. If I rebooted the entire laptop, all of the ports would come back on for a short period of time before they randomly shut off again. They will also come back on for a short period of time if I close the lid for a few seconds and reopen it. However, lately, the 3.0 ports have stopped working entirely and the 2.0 ports stopping is becoming more frequent.
The first time I noticed this was when I was testing a micro usb cable (it has stopped charging and I was testing whether it was the cable or the wall adapter). I plugged the cable into one of the 2.0 ports and it gave me a USB surge warning. Other than that, I haven't received any notices. The drivers are up to date. I have uninstalld the root hubs multiple times. I have tried all kinds of Power plans for the laptop. Nothing works. The USB ports still stop working, and it's becoming increasingly more frustrating.

Hello Abby_Renee,
With the USB 3.0 port not working, and your 2.0 port working intermittently, I would suggest the following document Troubleshooting USB Connections (Windows 7) for troubleshooting.
In this document there is a specific option for USB 3.0 ports stop working, which would be the best steps to follow for your 3.0 ports. Now for the 2.0 ports, I would suggest USB device not detected by Windows (no device name in device manager), or the other option is USB devices are detected by Windows but are not working properly. The last two options are dependant on the specific errors you are experiencing.
Please let me know the outcome of the troubleshooting steps.
Good Luck!

Help! Keyboard randomly stops working only with finder?

My macbook pro keyboard and my silver Apple bluetooth keyboard (primary keyboard) randomly stop working in Finder can anyone explain? Heres the details:
I usually use my wireless keyboard, and when this happens the keyboard keeps working with everything else, and only stops working in Finder i.e. I can't edit the names of files or even click through files with the arrow keys. (the Macbook Pro keyboard also stops working-only in Finder-during these times too as I just tested..)
Also, Finder keeps working its not frozen or anything, I can click around in it with the mouse and open files/apps, etc.
This has only happened approximately 3 or 4 times (I've had the keyboard since the new ones were released and the computer for 1.5 yrs)
Lastly, when I restart the OS (10.4.11) the problem disappears for a week or more..
help!

Don't do that. Archbang isn't Arch and it doesn't "get rid of installation pain," it just turns it into long term confusion and dependence...

USB audio DAC stops working after suspend

I didn't update my mediacenter running arch for a few months so I figured i'd reinstall it because of the filesystem, /lib and grub changes. Now after reinstalling I'm running into the issue that my USB audio DAC stops working after a suspend.
After a suspend speaker-test gives me the following error:
[user@mediacenter ~]$ speaker-test -c 2
speaker-test 1.0.25
Playback device is default
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 2 channels
Using 16 octaves of pink noise
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1068:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
Playback open error: -77,File descriptor in bad state
I've tried replugging my DAC and restarting ALSA, without any success. I have to reboot to get sound again.

Any help is much appreciated!

Unless you can find a way to stop XBMC from using your DAC, I would try hunting down the update which broke it and file a bug report with the appropriate project. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Do … g_Packages.
I suspect it would be the kernel.
Yes I am suspecting the kernel as well. I'll try to change some options in XBMC to maybe get this working, and if not I'll see how far I can downgrade with the kernel. My last installation was a few months old so I hope it broke not that long ago.
Thanks for the help

When my iPhone is connected (via the Lightning cable) to the usb port in my car, the alert tones are no longer played through the car speaker or the phone. This previously worked, but has randomly stopped working, help!

I took my iPhone to the Service center of M/s RSG INFOTECH PRIVATE LIMITED on April 17, 2014.
Why are you posting in this forum about what occured with an independent service provider? How is is at all relevant to Apple?? In fact, service by any person or business not authorized by Apple voids any waranty.

I have a mac book pro that both USB ports have stopped working one about a year ago and one recently. Is it possible to connect to another one of the other MBP's ports with a cord that ends with a USB port?

Thank you For your time and thoughts!
I went by the Apple Store and they told me that there was a "Flat Rate" repair service for this particular part where they would replace the logic board along with the USB ports for $350. Seems like best avenue. All of this would have been moot but my wifi in the computer also doesn't work so I was using my phone as a hot spot and tethering it to the computer for Internet access when the last port quit. This left me with no internet and no printing capabilities on the computer I use for my business. Basically became a nice paperweight. lol
They will ship it off Monday and I should have it back Thursday!
Again, thank you!

Hi Deborah,
See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH7029
Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
How much RAM & free space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
In the Memory tab, are there a lot of Pageouts?

Charger randomly stops working, laptop randomly shuts off

5 months after I had this brand new laptop it crashed on me. I wasn't able to retrieve anything and they ended up not knowing what went wrong and just reformatted my computer for me and gave it back.
About a year later I'm having other issues. The charger issue has been going on for a while now. It will randomly just stop working. It's not the battery because I plug in someone else's charger and it works just fine. The little charging light will suddenly go off on mine and it will no longer charge - or sometimes when I plug it in to charge, it just does not light up and work. I usually play around with it - unplug the charger from the outlet, unplut it from the adapter, take off the adapter, etc. wait around, etc. until it will finally work again. I don't understand why it does that though. There is no one thing that gets it to work again, it's just luck or whenever it feels like turning back on. (right now it is off and does not want to work)
My other issue is that my laptop starting a month ago has suddenly started to shut down at random moments. It never does that when it's just sitting in front of me. It happens when I pick it up and then the hard drive does that little 'click' thing and then boom my screen is black. It doesn't happen often. There are plenty of other times I pick it up and it clicks and everything is fine. It's not even a huge movement with my laptop. The times when it shuts off were triggered by SMALL normal motions. I'm simply lifting it up to move it somewhere else. It's SOOOOO irritating.
The two issues might possibly be related. I have found that when the laptop just shuts off like that and it has been plugged in, the charger will all of a sudden stop working along with it! Even if the laptop is shut off, the charger should still keep charging right? But instead, the light for it also goes off and then I unplug and plug it back in and it doesn't go back on.
I cannot say how annoying this is. I thought Apple was supposed to be a really reliable brand but I've had so many issues with it.
I will be going to the Apple store soon, but has anyone else experienced these problems?? And if so, I'd like to know what Apple did for you.
Thanks!

External Speakers Randomly Stop Working until I "Test" or Disable/Enable

I'm using a HP Pavillion DV6 Notebook PC Running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1.
External speakers randomly stop working until I "test" or disable/enable them. Headphone/HDMI Audio Works.
Background
-Recently had to do a clean install of windows.
-Went to the HP Drivers Website and downloaded all of the latest drivers.
-I installed several other programs as well (Flash, Steam, Media Player, Browser)
-The problem started
Current Settings
-My deafult device is "Speakers and Headphones: IDT High Definition Audio CODEC"
-Enhancements are disabled
-Bass and Treble are set to 4
-Format is set to 16 bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality)
-Allowing applications to take exclusive control of the device or not doesn't make a difference (but it's currently off)
Troubleshooting
-The audio works by plugging in headphones or using an HDMI device
-The audio comes back if I go to my sound settings and hit "Test", or if I disable and re-enable the device
Error Messages
-Youtube starts the video for 3 seconds, restarts and sputters a bit, and then says that there was an error
-My media player (MusicBee) gives me this message: "Unable to start playback (Error = BASS_ERROR_BUFLOST)"
That's everything I can think of. Any ideas?

Hi I have a problem with my integrated mic. It just randomly stops working.
It was working fine until a few weeks ago. Then one day suddenly it didnt work. and itl randomly start working again.
One way that it got fixed one time was when i plugged in an external mic i borrowed from a friend and unplugged. after that my integrated mic started working again. the next day it stopped working again.
I have tried everything possible to try and fix it.
- Went to sound disabled/enabled it.
- uninstalled/reinstalled the drivers.
- installed other drivers such as realtek
- used the windows microphone troubleshoot.
- tried configuring the microphone.
- even tried system restore, but i only had like 2 restore points since my laptop is relatively new
Nothing has worked. Can someone please come up with an actual solution to my problem?
My laptop is a dv6-6c50us with windows 7 64bit home premium.
And the sound that my laptop uses is IDT high definition codec.
I strongly appreciate any help i can get with this problem.

Sound randomly stops working in Windows 8

I have a new HP PC and the sound randomly stops working. When the sound stops, it stops in all applications: iTunes, Web Browser, etc.
PC DETAILS:
HP Omni 27 all-in-one desktop
Windows 8 Pro
In Device Manager, under Sound, this is what I have:
- AVerMedia H334 MiniCard Hybrid ATSC/QAM
- Bluetooth Audio Device
- IDT High Definition Audio CODEC
I just set up this new pc this week and I have run all the windows and drivers updates so everything is up to date.
When I boot up the pc, the sound works fine for a while and then randomly stops working. For example, if I play music in iTunes 11, the latest version, it may play for 1 minute or it may play for 10 minutes and then it just randomly stops playing sound and the sound will not come back until I reboot and the same thing happens all over again.
I have searched this online and I found quite a few people posting similar sound issues with Windows 8, but I have not found a fix for this problem yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cs6 hotkeys randomly stop working

Why do the hotkeys randomly stop working???
Simple ones, like the move tool or the marquee tool.
The only fix i've found is having to CLICK on the tool and then the hotkeys will work again...it's really annoying - never happened in cs5...

There's really nothing in cs6 that makes it worthwhile to switch - and certainily not worth paying an arm and a leg for the "cloud"...biggest scam ever to make more cash.
Well, I certainly share a dislike of the Cloud License.
But »Liquify as a Smart Filter« seems tempting to me.
And while in my opinion »Blur Gallery as a Smart Filter« should have been the way to introduce it, it finally being that way in 13.1 also seems interesting.
Also, I use cs5 daily, and have used photoshop since version "7"...
That does not seem likely to impress many people here. (edited)
my boss keeps asking me if we should upgrade the company from cs5.5...
It is certainly up to you to assess which of the new features are worthwhile to you (and your colleagues).
But what you call »retarded issues« may be actual bugs or user errors or the consequence of lacking system-maintainenace or hardware related or …
There is no way to tell without more information.
Edit: Please not that I am not an Adobe employee.

I recently installed an Airport Extreme 802.11N that I bought in May 2013. It replaced an Airport Extreme 802.11N that I bought in July 2007. My USB printer (Lexmark E350d) worked fine with the old Airport, but the printer won't work with the new one.

I recently installed an Airport Extreme 802.11N that I bought in May 2013. It replaced an Airport Extreme 802.11N that I bought in July 2007. My USB printer (Lexmark E350d) worked fine with the old Airport, but I'm having trouble with the new one. When I try to print, I get a USB Waiting message on the printer, and when I force a page to print by pressing Go on the printer, I get a page that says ERROR: syntaxerror OFFENDING COMMAND: true. . . .cvt . . . fpgm . . . x . . .lglyf . . . <..J head . . . STACK: / [ -mark- /sfnts I’ve tried shutting down the printer and disconnecting it and the Airport, but that doesn’t help. I reset the settings on the printer. I upgraded the Airport firmware and removed, reinstalled, and upgraded the Lexmark printer driver. After I upgraded the firmware and printer driver, a few pages printed correctly, but then I got the same syntax error page as before. Any suggestions for getting the printer to work correctly?

Use a powered USB hub between the AE and the printer.. the usb port does sometimes have issues.
Try deleting the printer in the Mac and reinstall it.. the change in AE can represent effectively a change of printer.. it is important to make sure that is all up to date.
Beyond that.. USB printers.. ughhh! Consider for two toners you can go and buy a proper network printer.
