N8 hold button and alarm tone

After purchasing the N8 (and being generally very happy with it) I have had at least 10 incidences where I have been talking to a client, and as I hold the phone relatively close to my cheek, this has activated the "Hold"-button on the screen, muting the conversation. This button should be smaller and be placed further down on the screen, or there should be an option to delete it completely - I never use this function, and I am sure many others don't use it. The second issue is the clock alarm - this will only make the phone vibrate, there is no sound in any setting (general, silent, meeting etc.) Is there a fix for this?

That's strange...Mine always vibrated and had sound in alarms. The phone even has the option to chose which sound you want to use as alarm
Go to settings->Phone->Time and date->Clock alarm tone
And mine used to function in General and silent profiles (never used the other ones)
Hope this helps

I presume that you mean that the switches do not light up as appropriate when you select a Patch in MS?
If so, in Layout Mode, select each of the buttons in turn, and check that they are a) Assigned to the correct MIDI CC number etc, and b) that "Send Value to" has the correct Port selected.

Hold Button and Headphone Jack problems (not a question, DO NOT ANSWER)

I received an old iPod with color display when the hold button appeared to be locked. The previous owner gave it to me for free. I waited about 3 years and finally looked into actually opening and fixing it. It turns out that a small ribbon cable connects the headphone jack and hold switch to the motherboard. The cable simply came out of its jack on the motherboard. All that was needed to fix the problem was simply opening the iPod and reconnecting the cable. For information on how to open your iPod's case check this link:

The blue tool pictured is not necessary. A few flathead precision screwdrivers work perfectly. Try it and good luck!

P.S.
The hold button was constantly locked and had no control.

Stuck Hold Button and Replacement Help

My Ipod wouldn't turn on a few days ago.
I finally realized that it was because my hold button is broken. It's stuck on hold. I have tried moving it in a lot of ways and it won't unhold.
Before I discovered this I sent in a replacement/repair request to Ipod. the box arrived today. The problem I described was that the ipod would not turn on etc.
I'm really nervous now though, cause it said on the policy etc that if they don't have the part/find it not broken etc they charge you up to 100 dollars. I'm afraid that my description will be incorrect or that it knocking around in the box or something will make it not broken anymore.
Should I send it back in the box that came? what else should I try?
I don't want to pay anything for repairs. I bought this at the end of august so it's still under warranty

"cause it said on the policy etc that if they don't have the part/find it not broken etc they charge you up to 100 dollars."
I think you'll find that this very rarely happens. The usual thing if Apple finds no problem with the iPod is to return it and there's no charge.
If you pack it properly in the box it shouldn't get knocked around.

The hold button and volume buttons have stopped working on my iTouch 4. How can I fix it?

I've only had it for about 6 months. It's never been dropped or abused in any way. All of the sudden, the buttons just stopped working. How can I fix it? Please help!!

The issue with the battery is a problem. The last battery I purchased was at the end of September, so it is NOT old. I would think that a battery would last longer than 6 months, considering the original one lasted up until that point. Granted it would not hold as much of a charge, but it still worked at least. So, at this point, I would think it would be a problem with the laptop and not the battery. I have asked a few friends of mine, who are IT professionals and they said that it is probably an issue with the internal power supply. I've also tried replacing the AC adapter and that did not work either. As you said, you get what you pay for. Since I paid a good price for this laptop I would think it would last longer than it has. The other 2 I have do not have this issue. The DV5215us is on it's second battery, which is reasonable, and it does not have this charging problem. The tx1115nr also does not have this problem and is still on its original battery. One would think that since the earlier generations of product would have more problems than the latter, but I guess that is not the case.
Like I stated eariler I am rough on my laptops and I should probably look at ones that are built more rigid.

IPod abrubtly cuts off and only comes back on when you unlock the hold button. why and how can i fix this?

I listen to my iPod Classic at work and it kept cutting off today out of nowhere and this hasn't happened before. I have it in my pocket so I have the HOLD button in the lock position so the wheel won't get pressed while in my pocket. I figured it died on me but I had just charged it last night so I took it out and unlocked the HOLD button. Well, the music immediately came back on. It happened a few more times and i figured maybe it was the song or something so I changed albums and it kept happening. Every time it would cut off, I'd unlock the HOLD button and it'd come back on every time, almost like it was paused or something. Has anyone experienced this? if so, how do I fix it? I really don't want to buy a new iPod since I have little money because of school, bills, and photography/film equipment. Help? thanks.

I'm having a hard time finding an answer to this too. This is what is going on. Sometimes the iPod (iPod Classic 160GB) does not "like" the songs I've downloaded from cds. Sometimes it does. I think it always plays whatever songs I've purchased on iTunes though. The other day I synced it to add two new cds and somehow the iPod was wiped clean--no songs, no pictures, nothing. I did a reset and the songs came back but now these problems:
1. The song will play for a few seconds then it either skips to the next song.
2. The song won't play, just skips to the next song.
3. Everything just stops, the iPod is still 'on' but won't play anything.
4. Right now it's playing an Aimee Mann album that I downloaded but it wouldn't play the Joni Mitchell album just before. Is the iPod making a comment on my taste in music?
Flipping the lock back and forth helps sometimes, but not always.
I bought this device less than two years ago; I really hope it's not permanently messed up. Should I just go to the Apple Store (please I beg of you, don't make me!) and throw myself at their mercy?
Help!! My iPod is the only thing that gets me through the day in this office.

Disable Hold button of Purchase Order

Hi All,
I am using the BADI 'ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST', methods 'PROCESS_HEADER' & 'CHECK' to validate the header of PO, to validate the PO header details and throwing error messasge incase of any validations.
The requirement is to disable the HOLD button of PO and user should not be able to save it until or unless he corrects the invalid header details.
Please le me know how to disable to HOLD button on application tool bar button.
Best Regards,
Kumar. S

Hi,
If the application tool bar fields are not populated in u r BADI method then u should try to find some other exit in which you can edit the application tool bar and if u debug it u can find it and if there is no exit try to find the enhancement-spot to disable the 'HOLD' button and u can pass parameters from one exit to exit.
I think it will work.

Hold function and conference calling trouble

The hold button and conference call functions just don't work on my phone. I have erased all data and reset the phone through ITunes and it still doesn't work. Is anyone else having this problem? Is there something I am doing wrong?
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Okaaay ...
As I said, my iPhone is not hacked. *T-Mobile is an official seller of the iPhone in Austria!*
And concerning your statement, that iPhones won't work with 4 year old SIM cards:
My *not hacked* iPhone works perfectly with my 4 year old SIM card except for the in the OP mentioned function!
As already said before, I found out, that this specific conference call service is not supported by the Austrian network. Neither with the iPhone nor with any other phone.
And yes, I've got an original, not hacked iPhone! So pleeease stop telling me the contrary!

Hold button broken?

i have a 4th gen ipod touch and the other day i tried to press the hold button and it wouldn't depress. the sides move up and down, but you can't press the button down at all. is this a fixable problem, or is my only other option to live without a hold button?

If Apple can't ustick it Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB one and $99 for the other 4G iPods. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following may fix it for less. Google for more.
iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
Try fixing it yourself if you are up to it
iPod Touch Repair – iFixit
later you can turn on Assistive Touch it add the Home and other buttons to the iPods screen. Settings>General>Accessibility>Assistive Touch

Using Hold Button When Off Eating Battery?

Hi All. I recharged my Nano on Saturday. Used it for about 30 minutes of Sunday and not at all on Monday. I enabled the hold button to prevent it from coming on accidentally when moving around. I took it with me to gym this morning, disabled the hold button and switched it on. I saw that the battery meter was all the way down and about 2 seconds later it switched off and didn't turn back on. Any idea what the problem could be?
I didn't get a chance to recharge it as I had to rush to work afterward but will try tonite. I hope it comes back on while charging!
Cheers,
CL

Hey there, the same exact thing happens to me. I just got my Nano on Christmas day and have been using it for short periods of time. I did not do a FULL 4 hour charge on the battery when I first bought it, but I have been charging it a little bit every day. For the last 2 days, I will use the iPod for maybe 1-2 hrs a day, turn it off, with the hold button enabled, and then when I go to turn it back on, there is absolutely no battery left, and I have to plug in the USB charger to even get it to turn on.
If anyone has any advice, do you think doing a full overnight charge would help??? I am an iPod "virgin". haha
Thanks very much in advance!!!

My Mac Mini was not sending a signal to the monitor. I powered down using the power button and now it will not start. When i power up I get a strange 2 tone sound, like a warning alarm. The fan starts, and the light comes on, but no screen

I have tried with a wired USB keyboard and mouse using a single screen. Powered up with option pressed. No change.
Reset SMC no change

Run the Apple hardware test to see what it tells you. Run the extended test when prompted, which can take awhile.

Ipod 4th gen volume buttons not working. Volume bar not showing in music or video apps, not a speaker problem as this works fine when testing built in alarm tones???

Have you tried the standard fixes:
- Reset:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
- Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
If still problem you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store is in order.
