  • My Iphone 4s wifi button is grey and won't turn on.

    Hi, My Iphone 4s wifi button is grey and won't turn on.  I have reset the network settings in settings, rebooted it and taken it back to factory settings. Any help or advice would be welcome

    You should get it looked at by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or an Apple Store next to your place, this might be a hardware issue.

    See Here for  >  Frozen or unresponsive iPhone
    Try this First... No Data will be Lost..
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

  • My ipod touch keeps turning the volume down by its self  and when i try to turn it back up it wont let me also when the sound is off the speaker that comes up when you turn it on down on the screen wont go it just stays there it doesn't go!Any ideas why?

    I got my ipod for christmas this year its the 4th generation.It keeps turning the volume down by its self,when i try to turn it up it does not work. It wont let me i dont know why so i cannot play music on my ipod which defeates the reason i got it.Also when it turns the volume down its self or i on the rare occasion that the volume works and i turn it down the speaker comes up and will not go.It stays there which is making my ipod difficult to use.Its been doing this for about a week now.I used it alot and i feel lost without it haha. Does anyone know why its doing this? Or a way i can fix it? I've cheaked for updates and there is none!
    Thankyouuu
    it looks like that when it is locked and when its unlocked it looks like this

    Have you checked the volume button? It might be physically stuck. To determine whether a hardware repair is needed, you need to follow these steps:
    1. Try doing a hard reset:
    Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
    After that: test the device to see whether the issue is solved.
    2. If the issue is not solved, you should backup the device and restore it as new.
    In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup.
    If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
    If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
    Good luck

  • My ipod touch (4th) suddenly wont connect to my wifi. Other gadgets are connected though. I tried resetting the network and turning the wifi (and ipod) on and off but it still wont work. Any suggestions on what to do?

    My ipod touch (4th) suddenly wont connect to my wifi. It connected fine before and all of my other electronics (tablets, computers, laptops, gaming systems, etc.) are connected and working completely fine. I tried turning the wifi setting on my ipod on/off as well as the actual ipod itself. I also tried resetting the network settings but neither of these options worked. Any suggestions on what I should do?

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network       
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Hi everyone, so I was on my MacBook Pro 10 mins ago and it all of a sudden shut down and won't turn back on? I haven't had it backed up for a while now but does anyone know what could have possibly happened and if it will affect my hard drive?

    My MacBook Pro 13inch won't turn on? It randomly shut down itself and won't turn on!!? Will it affect my back up? Hard drive disk? Because it has all my work and personal things I really need on there! Please if anyone can help me!!

  • I tried linking the facebook contacts to my phone but for some reason the contacts doesnt wants to show the FB images even thought it says that it was sync. What could be the issue? How can it be fixed so i could get my facebook lined up to my contacts?

    I tried linking the facebook contacts to my phone(iPhone4s) but for some reason my conatcts doesnt wants to show the FB images in my contacts even though it said facebook contacts were sync. What could be the issue? How can it be fix so I could sync my contacts with Facebook?

    Firefox will not appear in the Market for most phones with incompatible hardware. You can check if your phone is supported here:
    https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
    Even on some supported devices, a bug in the Market software prevents Firefox from showing up. This may be related to the fairly recent Android Market app update. If you go to Settings/Applications/Market and choose "Uninstall" you can uninstall the update, and then search for and install Firefox from the marketplace.
    Or, if you have a supported phone, you can download the app directly by typing this address into your phone's browser: http://bit.ly/fxbeta3
    (Note: To download the app directly for an AT&T phone, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)

  • TS1398 My iPhone 4S won't let me turn the wifi on!

    Hi! My iPhone won't let me turn the wifi on, the option is greyed out in settings and the control centre doesn't work-it doesn't turn on either. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks xxx

    Hi Lullita.
    This is a common problem on iphone 4s using ios 7.
    I have had this problem myself.
    Try basic troubleshooting : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
    If that doesnt help, try this.
    Go to youtube and type this " 4s wifi grey" ... You will find a couple of videos describing a method which includes blowdrying your phone and puttin it into freezer. This method does fix your wifi, I know I have tried it myself, and it brought back my wifi and bluetooth, which were greyed out.
    But be very careful, this method can damage your device if youre not careful enough. Do this at your own risk.
    Hope I helped.
    Donnie.

    My daughter and I have separate iCloud accounts set up on out desktop PCs and our iPhones and iPads. We want to share the usage of a Win 8 laptop and will log in using using separate user accounts. Is it possible to set up our own iCloud accounts in each of those separate user accounts?

    No it is not possible.  Content purchased from the iTunes Store is permanently tied to the account from which it was originally purchased, and Apple does not provide a way to change it.

    I have a monthly subscription for PS and Lightroom.
    When I opened Lightroom this morning, it told me an upgrade was available through CC. I probably did something wrong, butI couldn't get it to download.
    I came on the forum and read a couple of discussions on your pages and found a reply that posted links to the pages where Lightroom 5.7 could be downloaded.
    I clicked the link and downloaded the update fine.
    However, now when Lightroom opens, it is asking whether I want to BUY or have a free 30 day trial and won't progress any further into the app.
    My CC icon reveals that my software is up to date but I can't get past this register screen, without selecting BUY or FREE 30 TRIAL .
    can anyone help please?

  • The screen on my iPod touch is white and won't turn off and on?

    I was charging my iPod and forgot about it after a couple days and now my screen is white and won't turn on and off and I held hold button and button on screen for 10 seconds and it didn't do anything. HELP

    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.

    You put the internal drive in an enclosure. If you choose to keep the drive, you don't need to erase it.
