HT204093 I am following the instructions to hyperlink URL to an image in an email, but once I paste the URL, the "ok" button is not highlighted so I cannot complete the task. What is the problem and how do I get around it?

I am following the instructions to hyperlink URL to an image in an email, but once I paste the URL, the "ok" button is not highlighted so I cannot complete the task. What is the problem and how do I get around it?

I figured out if I took the http:// off the front of the URL, the "ok" button would highlight, but then link did not work. I tried just linking www.google.com to the image and the link did not work either. What gives?!

The answer helped me.But still, what are the settings that I have to change for the behavior of the mouse pointer towards finder? Also the mouse pointer sometimes doesn't accept my command and start clicking itself.what is the problem and how to fix it?

If the mouse clicks something on its own then it looks like you have a hardware problem with the trackpad or possibly the battery that is right underneath the trackpad.
I have read that the battery can swell and that would put pressure on the trackpad.

IPhone 4 home button doesn't always work

Not sure where the problem lies here, with hardware or software. The home button appears to be working inconsistently. Sometimes a normal press pulls up the home screen. Sometimes, I have to really press it hard, or several times. Double click and home screen routinely don't work reliably. Is this a software issue or hardware. If so, is it repairable or covered under warranty?

It's a hardware problem, if it's under warranty, take it to an Apple Store and they will replace it for free. If is not under warranty, they will charge you the cost to repair

My phone keeps freezing and the home button doesn't always work

My phone keeps freezing and the button on the front of phone doesn't always work when typing my phone goes slow

Try this... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Close All Open Apps...
Turn the Phone Off...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Phone On...

The battery of my iPhone 5 easily discharges even if not in use. This started 11 months after purchase. The unit passed the Apple Battery Health Test Protocol but the performance showed otherwise. What is the problem and how do I solve it?

The battery of my iPhone 5 easily discharges even when not in use. The unit was tested by Apple and passed the Battery Health Test although the performance showed otherwise. The battery deterioration started 11 months after purchase and is not covered by Apple warranty. What is the problem of the iPhone5 and would appreciate suggestions on how to address this problem. By the way, I have a 2 year old iphone 4S with a battery performance as good as when it was bought two years ago.

I have bought songs from ITunes and they are not showing up on my IPhone.What is the problem,and how can it be rectified?

Can someone please help me with this.I have upgraded to new IPhone 4's.In my music section,I cannot get all of the music that I have bought at ITunes.Some of the songs are on one IPhone but not the other.How do I get the songs on both IPhones?

Were the songs in question downloaded directly on the device or synced from iTunes on the computer?
Content does not magically appear on the device.

Under "my iPhone" and then the tab "on this iPhone" my songs are all synced, but a second copy of each song is underneath with a loading circle next to them. What is the problem and how do I fix it?

This is what it looks like. They are like this on iTunes under the category "on this iPhone" but they aren't doubled on my iPhone (I'm assuming that's because they are "loading"). Another thing to point out is that the songs aren't actually loading.. so confused and frustrated because I like my phone and iTunes to be organized and neat.

Dropped my iPhone 4 and now There are strange vertical and horizontal line plus red/orange background. What is the problem and how do I fix it ?

I can't see the apps or unlock my phone but at the top I see the time/mobile service ect.(it is turquise as if the colour has been reversed) and get notifications! Voice control ect. works as well !

I think that there is a problem with your lcd screen which can only be fixed by replacing the whole lcd assembly. You should definitely take your phone to an apple store and have them fix it. Please dont attempt to replace the lcd screen by yourself because you can and will do more damage to your phone. Take it to an apple store and they will fix it for you.

IPhone 3GS Sleep/wake button doesn't always work

Recently i upgraded my iphone 3gs to iOS 5.0.1,
Since then, my sleep/wake button doesn't always work.
It's pretty annoying, and i hope there is a solution to this issue.
Thanks in advance.

One possibility is that your phone is more occupied with "managing" iOS 5.0.1 since it has more features etc. This could especially be the case if you are using a lot of apps.
Another option is that the button is simply worn out... I used to have that issue with the home button of my old iphone 3g. However, if the problem started occuring right after you upgraded your iOS, it probably is a software issue...

My iphone 5 power button doesn't always work. I have heard this is an issue and Apple will replace it if under warranty, but I have a broken screen. Will they still replace it?

It is unlikely but you can atleast try they might set it up for free but expect an email about paying 269 for physical damage

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.
