  • HT1414 why does my iPhone 5s shut down unpredictably and needs to be reset every time to start back up?

    why does my iPhone 5s shut down unpredictably and needs to be reset every time to start back up?

    Hi Cyprus11,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone is shutting down unexpectedly, I recommend going through these troubleshooting steps:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Best,
    Jeremy

    This can be a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak and any existing files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js .

  • Why does internet options reset every time I start firefox 5.0?

    Everytime I restart firefox, it is not able to connect to the internet. The proxy setting in the network settings is set to manual proxy configuration. Even though I set it to auto-detect proxy settings for this network. It does not save the setting. It goes back to manual again when I shut down firefox. And the next time I restart firefox, I have to set it again. This has never happened in previous versions. Started only after I installed 5.0. Am I doing something wrong ??

    See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unresponsive_Script_Warning
    Bear in mind that Firefox 5.0 is still in BETA, so there are bound to be problems with it still.
    So do your bit and report the issue using the Feedback option. The full candidate is slated for release on June 21.

  • IPod touch in car adapter resets every time I start my car when plugged in

    I have had an iPod touch since April 2008. I have an iPod adapter in my Audi A4 and I plug my iPod into this adapter and it plays through the speakers. When I had software version 2.0 the iPod worked great - I would be listening to a podcast or a song and when I turned the car off and back on it would pick up right where it left off.
    However, since I installed version 3.0 onto my iPod it is resetting the iPod everytime I turn the car on. If the iPod touch is in the adapter when the car is started the iPod will reset and play the first song in my song list instead of what was playing when the car stopped or whatever was playing when I plugged it into the adapter and the car was off. Now I have to unplug the iPod just prior to starting my car to avoid resetting the iPod to play at the first song in the song list. (It doesn't reset the whole iPod, it just doesn't know what was being played and it goes to the first song in the alphabetical list of songs).

    This is part of a list of known issues with Iphone OS 3.0. There are several posts both here in these forums and in the ilounge forums commenting about lost functionality with factory car adapters after the upgrade.
    you will need to wait until 3.1 comes out to see if these issues get fixed.

  • Error updating mutation history every time I start LabVIEW

    I have a slightly annoying problem that has been re-occuring the past month or so. Every time I start LabVIEW I get the following error messages:
    Error occured updating the mutation history for Progam (2).lvclass. All values of this class in controls and constants will be reset to the default value
    The same error appears for Page (2).lvclass, Chart (2).lvclass, Worksheet (2).lvclass and Workbook (2).lvclass.
    It slows down my LabVIEW startup time by at least 3-4 minutes every time, which is quite annoying. I imagine the problem is occuring when it populates my existing projects, and in one of these projects contains the problem lvclass files. But I did a search of my ProgramFiles\NationalIntruments folder and my work directory and didn't find any files of those names. Just wondering if any one had any ideas on how to fix it?
    Thanks!

    Okay, seems like I found the problem. Yes, to answer your question, most of my LabVIEW programming is OO, using GOOP mainly.
    I also imported hundreds of LabVIEW libraries where these lvclass files were, they were in ImportedLib\DataLogger\LabVIEW widgets\ActiveX
    It's not code I've written, but I don't see why including these files was necessary in the repo, oh well. To get rid of the error I just removed those files and the mutation error stopped appearing. What's still a little confusing is why these files were being accessed on LabVIEW startup. I can imagine it necessary to load these files when the project is opened, but seems weird when it's just populating the existing projects list.
    Oh well, thanks for looking into it Andy, files were not in the NI folder which explains why I didn't find them on my first attempt.

  • How do I stop one extra tab from opening every time I start Firefox?

    Every time I open Firefox, my Yahoo homepage opens, but an additional page also opens which has a variety of website thumbnails and nothing else on that page.
    In my Options, I have ONLY www.yahoo.com selected as my homepage, so only ONE page should be opening every time I start Firefox.
    However, no matter what I do, this second page continues to open every time. It's very irritating, as half the time I've already begun to enter data into my homepage, then the second page pops up and switches to that and I'm typing on that page.
    Please advise.

    @jscher2000
    Thank you!! That fixed the problem. The only add-ons I have are for my anti-virus software WebRoot, but somehow I must have installed Speed Dial without realizing it.
    That fixed the problem. Greatly appreciated!!

  • HT201250 Why do i have to use the password for time capsule every time i start my computer

    Why do I have to use thr password for time capsuel every time I start my imac?

    With hindsight, the previous response I got from Apple was just a way of shelving the problem.
    Having just had to reset my password after another 3 months, I contacted Apple again, and it happened that the senior advisor whom the phone agent consulted had had exactly the same problem as me, and had found that iTunes could fix it.  However when I spoke to iTunes they told me I needed to speak to Apple ID account security.  The Apple ID account security representative spoke to a senior adviser, then told me that it would be fixed after I reset my password.  However I am not convinced that anything was actually done, so I may be back here in another 3 months ...
    To modify Roger's advice, the solution I was given is: go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'All Products and Services' in the first column, 'iTunes' in the second column, 'iTunes Store' in the third column, then "Account Management" and "Apple ID account security", then "Talk to Apple support now". A complication is that the "Talk to Apple support now" option only appears when UK English is selected.  So you either need to select UK at the top, or find another way of making phone contact (the email link just went back to the person in iTunes)!

  • Every time I start up Firefox, it always prompts me to reisntall the same pile of add-ons and extentions; I install them; still happens; why?

    Regarding Firefox 16.0.2. Every time I start up Firefox, especially after a period with my comp in standby mode, I am always asked to install several add-ons and extentions. Always the same ones, and always several. I install them, again and again, yet I am still always prompted to reinstall every time I start Firefox. I've always had this batch installed, but I don't know why it keeps telling me to reinstall them.

    Some security software has virtualization or sandbox features that may cause problems by protecting and restoring files in the Firefox profile folder.
    It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
    Delete the files extensions.* (e.g. extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Profiles
    New files will be created when required.
    See "Corrupt extension files":
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Unable+to+install+add-ons
    If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to check if there is a compatibility update available.
    If this hasn't helped then also try to delete the addons.sqlite file.
    If you do not keep changes after a restart then also see:

  • Every time I start Firefox, why do I get a Google sign-in tab?

    I’m using Firefox for Mac vets. 34.0.5, and I get that extra tab that opens every time I start Firefox in addition to the Home page I specified in Preferences. How do I stop that from happening?

    Type '''about:config'''<Enter> in the address bar.
    If a warning screen comes up, press the '''Be Careful''' button.
    This is where Firefox finds information it needs to run.
    At the top of the screen is a search bar. Type '''browser.newtab.url'''
    This tells Firefox what to show when a new tab is opened.
    If you want, right click and select '''Modify'''. You can change the setting to;
    '''about:home''' (Firefox default home page),
    '''about:newtab''' (shows the sites most visited),
    '''about:blank''' (a blank page),
    or you can enter any '''web page''' or '''about: page''' you want.
    The same instructions are used for the new window setting, listed as
    '''browser.startup.homepage'''.

  • Settings being reset every time

    I am running PPro CS4 on a mac and every time I start it up it looks like all the settings I'd changed last time i was in it (keyboard shortcuts, settings to how project bins should open, how the timeline should scrub etc.) are reverting back to the defaults. I thought that it might be that the settings always reset when you started a new project, but this is happening even when I reopen the previous project. Is anybody else seing this?
    I am using PPro in an administrator level account (the main account that the computer starts up in). I figure it must be a file permissions issue or a PPro bug. ButI'm not sure how to find out which.

    I don't know where it is in the MAC directory structure, but if you search the forum for
    info about the preferences files you should be able to find it.
    Before you open Premiere, Make a backup of the preferences file or just move it someplace else and then open Premiere. This should force the program to create a new preferences file and should work properly after you've reset your choices.

  • F this error message  "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer" with 2 radio buttons "Ignore" or "reject"  It comes up every time I start my new printer. How do I get rid of it?

    When installing my new HP printer I received the following error message when I inserted  the software install disk: "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer" with 2 radio buttons "Ignore" or "reject"  I was able to eject the disk but the message remains. Now every time I start up the printer this error message pops up on my computer.  I have since used the disk drive successfully for music CD's etc.  How can I get rid of this message?

  • How do I stop Firefox from checking add-on compatibilty every time I start the program?

    In the past 2 days, every time I start Firefox, a "What's New" tab (checking for compatibility of add-ons?) pops up in addition to my homepage tab. How can I keep the "What's New" tab from coming up? It seems like this starting happening after I updated to Firefox 6.0.
    Running Windows Vista
    Firefox 6.0

    Firefox 8 i am on and its doing the same,very annoying,ill be going back to previous version...
    do you guys at Firefox ever check your update's on any of your own computers before you release them?
    might be a good idea,its the same with kylo,updates come screw everything up when they were working fine...im am a house builder,if i built houses with this many errors i'd be bankrupt by now....

  • Plugincheck opens in a tab every time I start Firefox.

    Lately, every time I start Firefox, I get two tabs: one with my homepage (which I expect), and the other tab is https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/. The plugincheck tab is in the foreground and quite annoying. Why did this start happening? How can I stop it?

    What is the value of the pref plugins.update.notifyUser on the <b>about:config</b> page?
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

  • How to stop FF checking compatibility of add-ons every time it starts.

    Since upgrading to 4.0.1, FF checks compatibility of add-ons every time it starts. How to stop this?

    Did you delete prefs.js in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]?
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    This can also be a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
    Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.sqlite, extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
    See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button (Firefox 4: click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar) to do a compatibility check.
