My iphone stopped working for no apparent reason??

Help!!!! My Iphone has stopped working for no apparent reason... Anyone else experiencing that kind of problem?!? I have the new I phone 4 S havent even had it a year.

RM:  You saved the day for me.    I was at the ballgame and lost the use of iphone.   So when I got back I first had to remember that other electronics worked and I Googled the question.   Your answered of holding down both buttons at the same time worked.  But I had to do it several times.   I hope you know how much you have helped others with the simple answer first.
I'm ready to resisitate any one now by pushing their buttons simultaneously.
thanks.

  • The Audio portion of my 30 pin slot on my iPhone stopped working for no known reason. I tried both resetting and reinstalling everything is there anything else I can do?

    The Audio portion of the 30 pin slot on my iPhone 4 stopped working for no apparent reason. It neither powers on my JAM apogee and Tascam IUS interfaces or  feeds audio in and out of it. I have tried both resetting and reinstalling everything on the iPhone 4. Is there anything I can do to make the 30 pin slot to work again? The interfaces work fine on others devices and they used to work very well on the phone previously.
    Thanks for any suggestions and help,

    Hi shanny202.
    Really strange problem you have there. I have a few questions though.
    Please try again and try to make the phone as a new without restoringen with you iCloud-data or backup-data from iTunes. Maybe it is something wrong with the data (strange).
    Anyway, i think you should call Apple Support or visit an Apple Store, don't forgot to make a Genius Bar reservation.

  • Ethernet suddenly stopped working for no apparent reason

    My late 2011 MBP is usually functioning as a desktop with external display and keyboard/trackpad, so I have it connected via ethernet when it's on the desk.  However, my connection suddenly stopped working for no apparent reason.......... BUT clearly not a router problem as there's no problem with the wifi connection.  System Preferences > Network > Ethernet is telling me:
    Status: Connected.  Ethernet has a self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the internet.
    Dunno how this happened, as to my knowledge I didn't actually do anything to cause this problem, just randomly stopped working.  Any solutions much appreciated, thanks :-)

  • Backing Files Stop Working For No Apparent Reason.  Help?

    I have a portal application accessing a remote WSRP PageFlow portlet. The remote portlet populates a backing file and the producer application reads the data. It was working fine and then it stopped working for no apparent reason. The data was simply null, no errors or warnings. I put traces in the backing file and verified that the life-cycle methods were indeed being called and that data was there, and yes, both were indeed the case. Data is being set on the SimpleStateHolder and it's just not transferring over to the producer side.
    In order to rule out environmental issues, I've done this on multiple machines. Also, I started a whole new project, got backing file setup, verified that it worked, started developing with it and one time I deployed and it was broken again. I rolled out the changes I had just made but it didn't matter. The earlier code still failed to work although it had been working moments earlier.
    So, any ideas? Has anybody else encountered backing file issues like this and if so do you have any suggestions on debugging or fixing them?

  • Safari Just Stopped Working for No Apparent Reason  -- What's Up?!

    Hi there
    I'm new to this group, and I really hope someone can help...
    For no known reason, the other day my Safari browser started to load VERY slowly and then eventually it quit. Apart from temporary trouble with broadband service, nothing has changed in my computer set-up. Now I can't even load Safari without it stalling and then quitting or 'hanging'.
    I tried resetting Safari in the Preferences tab, and also testing all plug-ins and then re-installing (it only gave me the option of upgrading to the same version of Safari i had been using) -- all to no avail.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

  • Time Machine problem. Has stopped working for no apparent reason

    I've been using Time machine for nearly a year now and have had no problems until recently. Now it will not complete back up and returns with error could not write file.
    I have repartioned the backup drive and have no problems writing files to it outside of TM.
    The error log shows
    02/11/2009 12:05:35 com.apple.launchd[1] (com.memeo.Memeod[9340]) posix_spawnp("/Library/Application Support/Memeo/Memeo LifeAgent/Daemons/Memeod", ...): No such file or directory
    which looks like if can't find a Daemon it needs.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this?
    Many thanks

    Thanks for pointing out the Time Machine troubleshooter which led me to Time Machine buddy and from there I had easy access to the detailed Time Machine logs.
    A particular directory was not being copied,

    I removed the direcotry from the back up using Time Machine prefs and reran the backup which then went smoothly.
    Thanks for your help

  • My iPod has just stopped working for no apparent reason?

    I used it this morning for twenty minutes when I went out for a run. It may have gotten slightly sweaty (bleghh, sorry) but I don't think it was a factor in this! I listened to it for another ten minutes or so after the run, too, so it was still working then. But about half an hour later, I tried to listen to some songs again and it just didn't react at all. The screen was completely blank. Resetting it didn't work; plugging it into the mains did nothing but cause the Apple symbol to appear, disappear, and continue to do so, flashing on and off. Plugging it into the laptop, then pressing reset made the Apple symbol appear again, but then it vanished and the screen just kept flashing - it's quite dim so it's difficult to tell, but I think it's trying to show the Apple symbol but is crashing before all the bars can build up into a clear image. It's infuriating, because I only bought this iPod a couple of months ago, and I could have sworn I saved the warranty but now I can't find it
    I would really, really appreciate any help you can give, I hate not being able to listen to music!

  • Hey may ipod touch suddenly stopped working for no apparent reason, hey may ipod touch suddenly stopped working for no apparent reason

    i was watching tv and pulled my ipod out and it wouldn't turn on i tried plugging it in connecting it to itunes but nothing worked

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.

  • Firefox 15.1 stops responding for no apparent reason!

    As the title says, Firefox 15.1 stops responding for no apparent reason!
    I just did a re-format of my system disk and I re-installed Vista 64-bit on it. I have obviously re-installed everything from Windows updates to chipset, graphics and sound drivers. I also pulled down the latest and greatest version of Firefox which at the time is 15.1. So installed that too.
    Every now and then Firefox just stops responding for no apparent reason. It looks like it is processing the request (after clicking a link etc.) but it then it's just a silence... nothing happens!
    It doesn't even say it can't load the page and Windows doesn't even say that it has stopped responding. Not even after I click like crazy on the Firefox interface like different buttons and tabs and on the web page... not even then does it say "not responding" in the title bar of the window, which is usually the case when you deal with programs that are not responding immediately (you get that dialog that asks you if you would like to close the program or search for solutions online). Just nothing!... it's only quite and does nothing....
    At the same time, all other programs are working flawlessly, such as the Explorer (Windows Explorer), or even Internet Explorer. And Internet connection is not lost!
    I have no add-ons or extensions installed whatsoever. I just installed Firefox! I haven't even had the time to install Java yet. All I have is Adobe Flash player. That's the only extra. Otherwise it's in its' original form, default settings, etc, etc, etc.
    Why is it acting up like this?...
    I'm surprised that there even is such a thing as Firefox 15. This one came at the end of August, correct?
    I have been on Firefox 14.x something before I re-installed Vista. For a good reason so! This is why I hate the new update model of Firefox and I don't jump on the next train (version) unless it's safe and I'm having compatibility issues with the one I use at the moment. This is why my first step after installing Firefox always is to disable automatic updates! I hate it when the software vendors are pushing out their latest software versions forcefully.
    Frankly, I think this new Firefox version of yours is crap. It's not properly tested and it doesn't belong in the official release channel. This is more like a nightly build or something. It probably has some memory leak, despite the promises made by Firefox engineers that it will not have memory leaks and that it would be the fastest version of Firefox ever. I don't really need a faster browsing, I need a stable browser for reliable browsing. The speed of this Firefox version is close to ZERO! When it's not responding at all...
    I have been a fan of Firefox since 0.8. I will be probably ditching this latest version and going back to an older version like 13 or 14 that's more closer to the reality and not in this fantasy world of fastest, greatest, latest, version this, version that, latest features. I just want a browser that works man!... I'm getting tired of Firefox. I may even ditch it altogether in favor of.... I don't know.... Safari?... Chrome?.... I might even go back to Internet Explorer after like 12 years of absence.

    please try to uninstall the adobe flash plugin from the windows control panel. afterwards manually delete any leftover files in ''C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash'' and download & install the plugin again (uncheck the option to install the bundled security software): www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer

  • IPhone stopped working for no reason

    Hi,
    Need some help.
    I have had an iPhone now for a year, and it has just completly stopped working.  It hasn't been dropped or had anything spilt on it.  I have phone Orange twice now and they have gone through plugging it into iTunes and both times it did nothing except for the little apple sign to come on for approx. 20 seconds then go off.
    Orange have now told me the phone is basically dead and there is nothing I can do as its now out of warranty and I can't upgrade until May 2012!!
    Does anyone have any advice as to how I can get the phone working? 

    Hi,
    Thanks for replying. 
    I have tried that and nothing happened, should have mentioned that in my first post apologies

  • Iphone stops working for a few seconds then starts working again

    ok so i have an Iphone 3gs. the digitizer was messed up so i switched it from another iphone i have. they are both 3gs. after a while my 3gs started to lagg completely. the screen freezes and i cant do anything for a couple seconds then it starts working fine again. this has started to happen a lot. when im playing music it suddenly stops playing for a couple seconds and continues. i tried rebooting it and it didnt work. could it be the software? or the hardware? i doubt that it could be the changing of the lcd screen since the iphone completely stops working. should i try a restore?

    have you done a reset, hold down the home/poer button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.   see if that helps.
