Device info

When writing your question
Good description of what is really wrong and how to reproduce if possible. Details of what you did before:
I didn't do anything to it but before the speaker would fuzz in and out of call and then it started doing that permanently. Afterwards my phone just started to lock and unlock several times before it ultimately locked me out even after I tried to press the unlock button. I tried pulling out the battery several times and it alleviates the symptoms for about 3 minutes and it goes right back to locking and unlocking again. I have no idea what is wrong but I appreciate any responses and Thank You in advance.
Hello
Usually I would advise a hard reset of your handset, but it doesn't seem like it's possible if you only have access to your handset for a few minutes before the fault occurs.
Go to www.blackberry.com and download the blackberry desktop manager, then use this to update your handsets software, I have seen the desktop manager not recognise there is an update from an 8900 on OS 4.6, if this happens you can find the newest 8900 software on the blackberry website - download this and install it to your PC. Once it's downloaded you need to search for updates in the desktop software and when it says none available select 'view previous versions', then select the software you just downloaded.
Hope this helps

My phone keeps locking and unlocking itself
One day I got home from skateboarding and I tried locking my iPhone and it wouldn't lock. I've never dropped it, and the button is still pushable. It seemed fine and it was in the same spot when I left so obviously no one had messed with it. After a while of people pressing the button, its almost like it catches up to my phone, and then it locks and unlocks itself and goes into little glitch fits. Its so frustrating because then when I try to use my phone it just locks itself and it takes forever for me to be able to keep unlocking it to be able to send a text or do something. Is there anything I can do? unfortunately my one year warranty has expired in september, and my mom didn't get me insurance for the phone. so is there anything that can be done for it? thanks,
Not without a warranty still in effect. You might ask about how much it costs to have it fixed (usually it's swapped out for another used phone).

My ipod keeps locking and unlocking on its own! What should I do?
My ipod keeps locking and unlocking on its own! What should I do?
Try the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod -
My fully charged iPhone has a black screen and is not responding but has Siri and sound. I connected to laptop and iTunes gives error msg indicating phone is locked and I to enter passcode. but I can't enter the passcode because the screen is black. I have never syncd with iTunes. What can I do to get my phone back?
First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

My Macbook Pro keeps freezing and crashing, several times a day
Since I got my computer, it has been freezing. The little pinwheel will come up and nothing will work. It used to go away and my computer was usable again, and now I have to force shut my computer down by holding the power button down and turning it back on. Lately, it will shut down by itself too with no warning, and will 'turn off' twice and then after the second one, a gray folder will pop up with a question mark and I have to hold the power button down again. It is ridiculous. It doesn't matter what programs I use; internet--I used to use Safari but then I switched to Chrome hoping that would help and it reduced it to five a day MINIMUM to three a day or so, but now it's just as high as before--, Word, iPhoto, iTunes, Skype, just having the computer on in general. It doesn't matter. I am losing my homework, and I can't afford to lose papers from Word because my computer decides to freeze randomly. I called and they said to hit F3 and to switch desktops when that happens and close out the non-responding program there, but I can't do that, because it's the computer itself, and it never lets me switch desktops. Absolutely nothing works on the computer at all.
I went to Apple and they ran two scans on their computer, I don't know which ones, and they both came back and said nothing was wrong with the laptop, but something CLEARLY is. This isn't normal. I didn't pay almost 2,000 for a computer to never be able to actually use it because I have to turn it off every few minutes. So far today, and today alone, it is happened SEVEN times. And I've only used it five times today, for a period of about an hour each.
It did this before I got the new update for Yosemite and whatever was before that. I've had this since mid to late August of this year. It does it just as much as before I updated, probably more now.
I am at my absolute wits end. I need help, and nobody knows what to do for this. Has anyone had this problem and been able to fix it?Three beeps indicate a RAM problem. Is this the original RAM or have you upgraded it? The fact that this seems to happen when you move it sounds like the RAM might not be seated correctly or maybe the contacts are dirty. If you're comfortable doing it, you can remove the RAM modules and clean the contacts with an eraser. Try one module in the machine at a time. If one is bad, that will help you isolate which one.

I tried to remember the password for the iPod and introduced several times and is now locked How do I open the lock
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

I have an iMac that I am running OSX 10.8.3 on. I keep trying to install 10.8.4 but it will not install. I tried updating and installing several times and it restarts the computer but it will not install the software. My machine is about 8 months old so, it's in the newish range. HELP!
Sometimes the App Store version doesn't work correctly. In this case, install 10.8.4 with the Combo version > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1659?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
The Combo installer is the safest way to update OS X, and it allows you to update more than one computer with a single download -
On Windows Vista and tried several times to start up my iTunes, but keep getting 'application failed MSVCR80.dll error-7 (windows 126) is this an easy fix ...?
Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

Hi,
Is there a way to get the time stamp when we lock and unlock the entities. And also the User name who performed the lock and unlock task?
Rgds
AbhiHi Lye and Elvira,
I am not logged on, but fairly certain that calling FM BAPI_USER_GET_DETAIL will also deliver the lock status / reason and user existence check etc, which means that the program can react appropriately to the UFLAG lock and the reason for it (if coded to do so). It would also spare the select on USR02 which might change or even be blocked.
A bigger problem I see with preventing a user from doing something from a certain point in time onwards using this lock-approach, is that the user might already be logged on!
@ Elvira Knight and ELVIRA KNIGHT regarding points: You have 2 SDN ID's now. You need to logon as the ID which created the thread (Elvira Knight originally asked the question) either by using the P- or S-number from the registration or the email address (you might need to temporarily change ELVIRA KNIGHT's email address to do that). Then you will be able to assign points for the thread which you started as Elvira Knight.
Theoretically I could add the points for you, but I prefer not to interfer in the decisions and points of SDN members (it is a free world - unless there is points collaboration...). The future of the points-system is indeed also hanging in a bit of a balance because of that reason. You can email me via the address in my business card if you need some help.
Cheers,

I have the iPhone 4S. Since I updated to the iOS 6 my phone keeps freezing and the apps crash all the time. Sometimes it freezes up to a minute. And there's no way of fixing that. Is apple going to fix this? I'm not the only one having this problem.
You cannot update iPhone 4 to IOS 8.1.2, the highest you can update is IOS 7.1.2.
Unless you've iPhone 4S (looks similar to iPhone 4) -
