My iPhone 4 (iOS 5 updated) freezes every time it is locked. When I slide the bar to unlock it, it freezes and I have to completely reset it. HELP

My iPhone freezes every single time it is locked. If I don't lock it, the battery dies within an hour. HELP

Your only chance besides getting it serviced would be setting it up as new device:

  • After resetting my backbook pro to factory settings, it freezes every time it boots up. What's the problem?

    After resetting my backbook pro to factory settings, it freezes every time it boots up. What's the problem?

    by the way, you can also try to safe boot up your mac for safe mode. maybe it can work and you can deal with problem there.
    for safe boot:
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).

    First thing to (un)check:
    When you shutdown/restart, there's a dialog box which confirms your request. In that box is a little checkbox which you should uncheck.

  • I just received a iPod Touch 5th generation for xmas and it acts like it is locked, when you slide the slider it says unlock button and nothing happens.  Can't slide the power off either.  It tells you the time, unlock button, power off button but nothing

    I just received a iPod Touch 5th generation for xmas and it acts like it is locked, when you slide the slider it says unlock button and nothing happens.  Can't slide the power off either.  It tells you the time, unlock button, power off button but nothing happens.  Voice just tells you the unlock button, time, poweroff button.
    Please help also itunes says I need to enter on iPod the passcode to reset to factory.  I can't get it open to enter passcode, slider doesn't work.  It is one day old and this happen xmas afternoon.  PLEASE Help someone

    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.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why can't I delete added mailboxes on my iPad mini since iOS 8 update? Every time I try to delete an old mailbox that I added it boots me right out of mIl completely. I want to clean up and get rid of old unused mailboxes?

    why can't I delete added mailboxes on my iPad mini after the ios8 update?

    The mail app is crashing on you for some reason. Close the mail app and reset your iPad.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that doesn't help, you can also try resetting all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.

  • I get unwanted massive page downloads to my download PDF file every time I attempt to download something I want; this download takes over my MacBook and I have to force quite to stop the download.

    This started happening after I attempted to download my property tax report from the county. I will get the page I actually wanted to download but I also get page after page of unwanted material downloaded to my MacBook. The only way I can stop the massive page download is to force quite the MacBook and then restart it and delete all the unwanted pages.

  • Semi - Smart Albums - all I want is to update iPhoto every time I add a new

    after reading the iPhoto Help files descriptions of Standard and Smart - Im after Semi - Smart.
    Standard: You can also create an album by dragging a folder of photos from the Finder into an empty part of iPhoto's Source list. iPhoto creates an album with the folder's name and imports all photos contained in the folder.
    - but what iPhoto 6 wont do is automatically update itself every time I add a new pic into the source folder.
    Smart Folder: "You can make a Smart Album that contains only certain types of photos, photos with high ratings, or photos that match other criteria, including EXIF information, such as a specific shutter speed or camera model....
    iPhoto automatically modifies a Smart Album when any photo that matches the album's settings is added to or removed from your library."
    but what iPhoto 6 wont do is to simply capture the folder name as Ive named it in my source folder structure.
    So Im after:
    a. drag a folder ( for example, cars, gemstones, Klimit art) into the iPhoto source pane, it becomes a semi-smart folder in that it watches every new change I make to the source files on my computer. I add a file, iPhoto 6 adds it. I delete one, it deletes it. I mod it - you get the game here.
    Do I need to upgrade iPhoto to handle this rudimentary task ? Seems like this action would be built in - am I missing something here ?
    TIA

    will try that out, thanks for the tip.
    Who would want to have to use Automator or Applescript to make such a rudimentary function enabled within iPhoto ? I would guess 95% of Mac users never use those things. The whole point of Mac is to keep your life from having to descend into mundane technical details, thus freeing one for more time with life's higher level tasks. This should be basic from-day-one type behavior in any photo app.
    Will chime back in on how difficult it get iPhoto to auto-update itself with every new pic I add/subtract to these watched folders.

  • Why does iphoto 11 tell me to update library every time i open it?

    why does iphoto 11 tell me to update library every time i open it?
    iPhoto '11 OSX 10.8.5
    I open iphoto and I get the message
    "the Photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto"
    I click upgrade and after a few seconds the photos show fine, the application works correctly.
    then I quit the app. and reopen and i get the same message and the same results.
    this was happening before I did a complete erase of the Macbook Pro and install of Mt Lion
    upgraded from lion.
    only thing thats the same is the computer and the library I restored.
    RT

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • My iphone 4 is crashing every time i try to cut a picture.

    From today my iphone 4 is crashing every time I try to cut a picture. It looks like I'm shutting it off (with that white circle rotating in the middle of the screen), but after 10-15 sec it goes back to my homescreen. What is this?
    I've noticed that my iphone has gotten way much slower latetly (I've go about 30 % space left), although I have the latest version of iOS. My home button is not working correctly, it takes about 5-10 seconds to open messages and recent calls etc.
    What can I do to fix this?

    I went to an Apple Store Retail, and asked to be changed camera. The camera was replaced because it was under warranty

  • Aperture freezes every time I push the auto exposure button. Any suggestions?

    Aperture freezes every time I push the auto exposure button. Any suggestions?

    What is your Aperture version? And since when are you haveíng this problem? Did this start, after you imported  photos or updated software? Did you move your Aperture library or your original image files? Did Aperture crash?
    Does it only happen when you are working in your main Aperture library, or also when you are using a different Aperture library?
    As a test, create a new Aperture library and and try to adjust an image there. Does it work?
