My backlight will not come on every thing else works fine

my back light will not come on everything else seems to be working fine.

This usually happens when the phone is water damaged. I know you state it hasn't been in contact with any water but the connector on the bottom of the phone can get moisture on it, start a corrosion process and start the phone in a hotsync loop.
Another issue may be that the connector is dirty or has some kind of debris on the connector.
You can try the following procedure to clean the connector to see if you can break it out of the hotsync loop.
Take out the battery and wait for at least 30 seconds to allow the phone to power off.
Take a lint free cloth and some denatured or 90% isopropyl alcohol, lightly dampen the cloth and clean the connector. Wait for the alcohol to dry completely and then power on the phone. See if this may stop the hotsync looping.

  • MacBook Spillage - Battery Not Detected! - Every Thing Else Works Fine!

    _*Okay I Don't Know If This Actually Qualifies To Be Under This Category, But It Must Have Something To Do With The Battery. Here's What Happened_.*
    I Accidently Spilt Some Orange Juice On My Macbook On The Keyboard And In The Hole Between The Screen And The Keyboard Area. I Went In A Big Panic And Started Mopping Up The Spillage, Taking Every Key Off The Keyboard And Drying It, I Even Ended Up Taking The Top Bit Of The Computer Off To Dry It.
    After That Struggle And Drying Up Every Bit Of The Liquid I Tried Switching On The Computer After Numerously Pressing The On Button It Managed To Boot Up And Even Into The Login Screen. I Tried Logging In But I Got That Random Error Telling Me To Restart My Computer So I Did, Once Again I Pressed It Numerous Times, And Then It Started Making An Alarm Like Noise, Eventually I Managed To Get It On And Logged In. But For Some Strange Reason My Airport Card Was Not Detected, (At This Point I Should Say It Was Plugged Into The AC Adaptor), And The Battery Had A Cross Over It, Oh And According To IStat Menus My Computer Was Running At -128 Degrees C, Very Unusual!
    Now When I Spilt The Drink My Computer Was Updating, As I Had Recently Reinstalled Mac OS X Leopard 10.5, So I Tried Updating And My Computer Shut Down, This Happened A Lot Of Times And Even Shut Down During The Hard Ware Test, But I Never Managed To Get The Apple Logo Telling Me My Mac Was Booting Into OSX. So I Shut It Down And Left It For About 2 And A Half Hours Until Trying To Switch It On Again, It Worked (Well Maybe I Should Say Works) Perfectly Fine And Is What I Am Talking Off Now, As This Tragedy, Only Happened, What 3 And A Half Hours Ago. The Airport Works, My Computer Is Not Running A -128 Degrees C, Except My Battery Is Not Recognised There Is A Cross Over It, Now I Would Test Another Battery But The Only Other Person Who Has A Macbook In My House, Is Asleep As Is Is 4.00 am, In The United Kingdom!
    I Don't Know Why Only My Battery Is Not Working As The Juice Went Inside My Computer And You'd Expect The CPU Or Something Else To Not Work, It's Quite Strange!
    *_If Anyone Could Give Me Some Advice Or Help With This Problem It Would Be Highly Appreciated!_*
    *_Thanks In Advance!_*

    Same thing happened to me,
    I spilled orange juice on my Mac and after drying I tried to restart it,
    it did, and then it would shut down and get error messages. I took it to the apple repair center and they said the motherboard was damaged. They actually recommended I just buy a new one, since replacing the motherboard would cost about the same. The battery doesnt charge, I have to use it with the ac adapter, and a few weeks ago, the hard drive crashed. I had to go and replace that. Then, the battery on my mac started to swell and when I took it in they said the battery had been recalled, so they replaced it. I just got it yesterday, dont need it since it wont charge, however this morning my mac started to shut down automatically, it did it over and over again until I took out the battery. Strange........... So far it hasnt shut down,
    Thats my luck with my Mac,
    Hope this helps

    Hi AM_Kidd.
    Thanks for your reply.
    I have done a complete uninstall and re install of iTunes and all related apple programs from my laptop through control panel, add remove programs and also by going through program files and deleting all tracers of any left over folders remove programs may have missed.
    My apologies for forgetting to add this in my original post.
    Thanks again

  • I started getting messages 3 days ago that my Safari cannot establish a secure connection to Facebook, and it will not open that website. It worked fine for years before this occurred 3 days ago, what can I do to fix it?

    I started getting messages 3 days ago that my Safari cannot establish a secure connection to Facebook, and it will not open that website. It worked fine for years before this occurred 3 days ago, what can I do to fix it?  OS 10.8.3, Safari 6.0.4

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
    Click:   Remove All Website Data
    Then delete the cache.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If nothing above helped, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

    My ipad will not swith on.  It was working fine an hour earlier but when I press the power on button nothing happens.  I have had it on charge just to be safe but no joy.    This is a basic first version ipad. What options do I have?

    Try a reset. Press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own.

  • Safari pages are darkened and unresponsive. Internet is fine. Syncing with MacBook did not solve problem. Everything else works fine.

    Safari pages are darkened and unresponsive. Internet works fine. Syncing to MacBook didn't help. Everything else works fine, including a different browser and apps that use the internet. Safari responds to searches and bookmark changes, but pages are not clickable. Help, please.

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. Also have you cleared the cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History). Also, if your equipment list is correct, you update to 4.3.3

  • My hp office jet printer will not scan a document wirelessly print works fine on wireless any thoughts on this problem

    my hp printer will not scan a document wirelessly the wireless print funtion works fine i have to plug the usb cable into the laptop to scan a document any thoughts on how to do this wirelessly thanks

    i have to plug the usb cable into the laptop to scan a document
    This is because HP has not provided network USB drivers to allow scanning when the all-in-one is connected to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme.
    HP has only provided drivers to allow printing when the all-in-one is connected to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme. To be fair, other manufacturers who offer all-in-one products do the same thing.
    If you need to scan documents, you will need to connect the all-in-one to the USB port on your computer....until HP offers full featured network USB drivers. Check with HP Support for possible progress in this regard.
    If your all-in-one happens to offer wireless connection options or wired Ethernet options to connect to your network, you should have full functionality that way.

  • Edit will not open in Elements 12, organiser works fine

    I Have just purchased Elements 12 and installed it on a laptop running Windows 7.  It appeared to install without problems and the organiser section works fine, but the editor section will not open.  I have changed the 'opening page' to all 3 different choices but the editor section will not open.  Please advise what I can check to try to find the problem, including me!

    Thank you for your advice, I have followed your instructions and SLCache and SLStore are now shown on the Desktop.
    I then launched Elements from the icon on the desktop and the following message displayed:
    Please uninstall and reinstall the product.
    If this problem still occurs, please contact Adobe technical support for help, and mention the error code shown at the bottom of this screen.
    Error: 16
    http://www.adobe.com/support/
    I have not uninstalled and reinstalled as I have done this previously and presumable it would put SLCache and SLStore back to their original location.
    Have you any further suggestions?
    Regards

  • I have a MacBook Pro 15" 2.53GHz Mid2009.. updated to Lion which is now 10.7.3 build 11D50b... when I close lid and connect to Cinema Display, display will not activate... disconnect display, open lid laptop display will not activate... used to work fine.

    I have a MacBook Pro 15" 2.53GHz Mid2009.. updated to Lion which is now 10.7.3 build 11D50b... when I close lid and connect to Cinema Display, display will not activate when keyboard/mouse used... disconnect display, open lid and laptop display will not activate... only way out is hold power button.  Worked fine before Lion update.   Any Advice?

    Thanks very much Coander15... I've printed the doc you pointed me towards and I'll run through it.. hoping it helps!
    Before I installed Lion I simply hit any key on the keyboard or clicked the mouse...
    The keyboard is USB (usually connected to monitor which is connected to laptop... have tried direct connect to laptop as well with no luck) and mouse is USB wireless to one of those tiny plug in's... have tried direct connect USb mouse as well with no luck.
    I could plug the closed/sleeping laptop into the monitor and unplug from the monitor without incident all day/night... always worked fine. 
    Had heard something about this happening w/ Lion but went ahead anyway. 
    Oh well...
    Hoping your pointer helps... will let you know how it turns out.  Thanks very much for responding!!!

  • IPad 1 is recognized by iTunes running on Windows XP but will not sync (new problem, used to work fine).  The iPad and all its contents displayed but warning box says the iPad is not connected.  Tried soft reboot.  All software versions current.

    iPad 1 connects to iTunes and displays in the left column.  All elements on iPad displayed.  However, it will not sync.  Displays message that the iPad is not connected.  This is a new issue.  Used to work fine.  All iTines and iPad software up to date.  Ran HELP diagnotsic in iTunes with iPad connected - no issues noted.  Attempted soft reboot of iPad.  No help.

    Issue hopefully resolved.  Required Apple store to delete all info from iPad and reinstall operating system.  Had to reload all data, but it seems to be working fine.  Cause unknown. 

  • Mac Mail will not load any emails, but Airmail works fine. What to do?

    Hello,
    I recently purchased a MBP and did used Migration Assistant from my old MBP. Everything has worked fine except for Mail. Mail will launch and ask me to add accounts. I add an iCloud account and nothing happens, Mail does nothing and when I go to quit it won't, preferences is greyed out, and I have to force quit Mail. Internet accounts are in order. I even went so far as deleting them all and adding them all back in. Launch Mail and nothing is there.
    I then did an internet recovery and installed 10.9. Same issue persists.
    I took a chance and bought Airmail from the AppStore and it works perfectly. I know I can just use that but its bothering me that Mail does not work on my brand new MBP.
    OSX wont let me delete Mail to try and reinstall.
    Thoughts? I really dont want to wipe the disk and start from scratch.

    Thanks, turns out I got a virus somehow. BWContextHandler32.exe is reporting itself to my firewall as the game BulletStorm, which I do not have, and somehow attached itself to Firefox and probably IE as well. I figured it was bogus so I blocked it. Still not sure why it just started blocking Firefox. I was denying access to it for a couple days, darn procrastination, and Firefox was working fine. Now I just have to get rid of it...I really hate windows sometimes...

  • Hp office jet wireless 6500 will not make a copy has been working fine until today.

    operating system imac has nothing to do with this I am just trying to make a copy.
    Just changed the ink today when the problem started. It still will not make a copy I just get a blank page.
    No changes of any kind.
    no error message.
    Thank you.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I searched other posts and someone suggested that I go to setup on the front of the printer and then tools. I did a cleaning twice and now it makes copies again. The first time I did the cleaning it still did not work, the second cleaning did it. I would strongly suggest to HP that they address this issue in their troubleshooting docs. They don't even mention not making a copy, they only talk about printing, two diiferent issues.
