My iphone4 will not ring but the ringer is on. Why?

My iPhone4 receives calls but doesn't ring or vibrate. The ringer is turned on and the volume is at its max. Can someone please help me fix this?

Check the status bar, do you see a crescent moon shaped icon? If so, you have activated Do not Disturb, which can be disabled at Settings - Do not Disturb = Off.

    I have a MacBook pro that has power issues and will not start but the hardrive is fine.  I do not want to lose all of my files so I was wondering if it's possible to transfer my hardrive from a older Macbook pro to a new one if I were to purchase a new one?  Also, the software is not updated as the computer hasn't worked for about 2 months. 
    Also, if it is possible to transfer the hardrive, would my iTunes music transfer as well?  It is not saved in the cloud.
    Thanks for your help, it is much appreciated.

    You computer is probably perfectly repairable, but if you want a new one anyway, it is perfectly possible to transfer the data from the faulty one.
    But it would be a mistake to simply put the old HD in the new computer.
    These are the steps:
    Remove Hard drive from faulty computer. (very easy on Unibody MBPs, do-able but not so easy on older MBPs)
    Put it in a cheap enclosure
    Connect it the new computer
    Boot up new computer.
    If the new computer has never been run before the Setup Assistant will ask if you want to import your apps, data, settings etc from either another mac, another HD connected to the Mac or a Time Machine back up.
    Obviously chose the second option (another HD connected to this Mac) and follow prompts.
    If the new computer has already been run (so Setup Assistant doesn't run when you boot it up), you will need to use Migration Assistant...or run the installer again so that Setup Assistant runs again.

  • Iphone 4 will not unlock but the same portion of the screen is active using SMS or any other feature.

    Iphone 4 will not unlock but the same portion of the screen is active using SMS or any other feature. What is the issue?

    It won't recognise it at all, but luckily I backed up very recently.
    I've booked an appointment with an Apple store who promise a working iPhone within 10 minutes of your appointment, whether fixed or a brand new iPhone.
    Thank you both for your suggestions. I'll leave the question unanswered incase people have any other suggestions or similar issues.
    Cheers.

  • Flash Will Not Open (but the rest of CS4 will)

    Hello all,
    I bought CS4 Design Premium back in October 2008 with my new MacBook Pro.  While I have been using Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop for some time, I am just now wanting to get into Flash.
    The problem is that Flash will not open.  I get the entry window that asks me to choose what type of Flash file I would like to start, but no matter what I choose the windows shut down and I get a crash report (that is quite long).
    Can someone please shed some light on why this is happening?
    Thank you all in advance for your help with this!
    Peace,
    Jason

  • ELearning Suite 2 - Presenter will not activate but the rest of the suite is activated?

    In late December, I purchased eLearning Suite 2.  After many hours of setting up eLearning Suite 2 in Win 7/Office 2010 32-bit, I discovered that Presenter and Captivate do not render fonts well.  So, I built an XP partition and installed eLearning Suite 2.  I used it the next day with no problem and I was quite pleased with the font rendering.
    Tonight, Presenter has flipped to "Trial" and will not accept the eLearning Suite's serial number.  I was using Photoshop at the same time and it was activated.  I then tried Captivate, it is activated.  So, why has Presenter decided that it does not want to remain activated?  I purchased the suite for Presenter and Captivate.  I own CS5 Master Collection, Acrobat X, and CS4 Web so I really did not need another copy of Acrobat, Dreamweaver, or Photoshop.  However, having all of the products that I needed in eLearning suite 2 came in handy in my XP build.  I do not have any of my other Adobe products installed on the XP partition.
    Any thoughts or solutions?

  • My emails on my mac and macbook will not send but the connection doctor confirms connection to the server.  Any ideas???  Thank you

    I am unable to send emails on my imac and macbook.  They go straight to my outbox.  The connection doctor comes up with green lights.  Any ideas?  Hopeing someone out there can help me - thank you.

    EA68, who is your broadband provider, if it is Sky then they have recently merged with Yahoo, and there have been similar problems with people who use Mail to access their emails.
    If this is the case you will need to remove your SKY account from Mail and then set it up again.
    Make sure you clear your inbox, and back up any important emails you have.
    IN MAIL go to prefrences and accounts. Highlight SKY account and select the MINUS or delete sign.
    Now select the PLUS or add button and type in your sky email address, and then your sky password. Follow on screen instructions, and your emails should then work.
    Hope this solves your problem.

  • HT5047 Have Apple Iphone 5C.  The phone vibrates but will not ring.  What do I do/

    Have Iphone 5c.  It vibrates, but will not ring.  Phone shows that the sound is all the way up.  Why will it not ring?

    I had the the no sound issue also on my iPhone.  I found this trick to solve the problem and it give back all sounds on any iPhone.
    1- Go to Settings
    2- General
    3- Scroll down to : Accessibility
    4- Select Assistive touch (for more information about Using AssistiveTouch on your iOS device : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5587)
    5- If the "White dot" doesn't appear - Click 3 times to the home bottom and you should get the "White dot" somewhere on your iPhone sceen (you can move the "White dot" where you want on the screen of the iPhone)
    6- When you get the "White dot" - click on it
    7- You will have 4 icons, click on the device icon
    8- Click volume up (be sure the volume is at the maximum)
    9- Click on the little bell (make sure the bell is not muted - I found, it's not very clear whic bell is on or wich bell is mute)
    10- Call your iPhone - the problem of no sound should be fix (if the problem is not not fix be sure the volume is up and the bell is not muted - select the other bell by clicking on the bell -  call again your iPhone - the problem should be solve and it should work)
    11- If you do not like to keep the "White dot" on your iPhone screen - click 3 times to the home bottom and the "White dot" should disappear (if you want it back - click 3 times to the home bottom and the "White dot" should be back)

  • My iphone 4s will not ring for incoming calls...I've checked Do not Disturb, changed my ringtone to default and did a soft reset.  It will vibrate but not ring.  What can I do?

    My iphone will not ring when calls come in.  I have it set to ring and vibrate.  The Do not disturb is turned off and I have reset it but still it will not ring. What can I do?

    Check and see that the silent mode switch on the upper left side is toward the front of the iPhone and there is no orange or red showing.

  • IPhone will not ring if locked even when Do Not Disturb is not on. Even when the sound toggle on the side is not red.  This problem occurs regardless of whether it I have Do not Disturb on (manually, or scheduled) or COMPLETELY OFF.

    iPhone will not ring if locked when when Do Not Disturb is not on and the phone is not on silent (button on side is not red).  This problem occurs regardless of whether it I have Do not Disturb on (manually, or scheduled) or COMPLETELY OFF.   I've tried wiping the phone and reinstalling from a saved copy but of course the problem comes back because the problem is inherent in the save.   There are two options under "Silence" at the bottom of the Do Not Disturb preferences.  "Always" or "Only when iPhone is locked".   Those are the only two options and I want neither.  No amount of deselecting will work.  It forces you to pick one.  
    Does anyone have a solution given that I've better explained the problem? 

    The settings at the bottom of the Do Not Disturb page do not matter if you have the switch for Manual turned to off, or the Scheduled turned to off.
    When the phone is unlocked, if you try to raise the volume of the ringer, what do you see on the screen? Does it say ringer, do you see the word headphones anywhere?

    There is a hardware problem.  Whether it's worth it to you to have no working phone for 2 months until you can update vs paying for replacement/repair now is a question only you can answer.

  • HT4623 I updated my phone to iOS6 and now it will not ring for incoming calls.  It blocks my landline number.  I've tried resetting, updating, etc.  I've gone to the Verizon store.  They were puzzled too. Any ideas of what I should try next?

    I accepted the push to update my iphone to iOS6....now it will not ring.  It blocks calls from my landline. Help!   I've tried resetting, etc.

    It has been caused in an OTA glitch.  You need to hook it up to your computer, restore and update off of iTunes.  Good Luck.
