N97 Camera switches on & off continuously

Help!
For no apparent reason ie not connected with anything I've done to the phone, the camera has started turning on & off almost randomly, regardless of whther the slide cover or the lock key are engaged. Sometimes the cycle is a few seconds, sometimes several minutes. The firmware is up to date, and there are no other obvious problems. Help, please!

well if you've done a reset and the software is up to date , sounds like a physical repair ! Nokia Care Point

Can you see the Canon EOS camera and image files using Windows Explorer? If not disconnect the camera, close all applications' shutdown Windows, and TURN OFF the power to your system and ALL connected devices. Disconnect all phones, iPads, and any other USB devices and restart your system.
Retry Windows Explorer and see if your camera is showing. If so try LR import again.

Maybe reboot your router. Unplug it for about 30 seconds or so and then plug it back in. Reboot your iPad while the router is powering up.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

I continue to get 'no air printers found' after switching on/off and ink and paper ok. What do I do now?

I continue to get 'no air printers found' after switching on/off. Ink and paper ok. What should I try next please?

See requirements for AirPrint and printers that support AirPrint here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
If your printer supports AirPrint but does not work then:
Your printer might need a firmware update
Your printer must be on the same WiFi network
Your router must support Bonjour (Zero-configuration networking).
Troubleshooting:
Turn Off iPad, WiFi router (remove from power), and Printer (remove from power).
Turn on WiFi router
Wait 30 seconds
Turn on printer
Wait 30 seconds
Turn on iPad
Try to print.
If you need more help then what model printer do you have?

My iphone won't charge and won't play music anymore. I have tried reseting it and switching it off. Have tried 3 different chargeres and even a car charger. Does anyone know what could be wrong and how I can fix it?

I have an iPhone 4 not quite 2 years old. 2 nights ago my iPhone was on its charger and it kept vibrating as if it was being disconnected and re-connected from the charger. When I looked at it had an "error" message but now I don't know what that was as it was 3am and I was half asleep. I just diconnected the charger and the battery read fully charged.
The my volume wouldn't go up or down. The box with "ringer" in it came up but no bars at the bottom to show the volume is increasing or decreasing. It would not play music out of the speakers either even though the screen showed it was playing and it would not work in our dock/speaker unless I used bluetooth and even then, if we touched the volume button on the dock it would switch off.
I tried a "hard" reset 3 times and tried switching it off and on 3 times with no success.
I tried 3 different chargers including a car charger, plus the speaker dock with no success.
It is now out of battery and I cannot charge it.
The iPhone also would not back anything up prior to the battery going flat.
I just need to know if it is fixable or do I need to start looking for a new phone?

Need help was trying to up grade from ios5.1.1 to ios6 after installing for over 40 minutes the final screen came up with the blue iTunes icon and a USB lead leading to it.

My iPhone has a protective cover on it and I carry it in my pocket a lot. Quite often when I take it out of my pocket the silent/ring switch is off and I am sure it was on when I put the phone in my pocket. How can this be happening?

Protective cover as in screen protector? This would have nothing to do with the silent switch.
If you're referring to an actual case though... take the case off and see if the problem continues.
It may be as simple as the silent switch being lose, which will require a device replacement to resolve.

A switch on/off problem about the relay in a loop

hi group:
I am developing a project based the Ni-sci-1160. Now I meet a problem about switch on/off in a loop.
for example: I creat a loop, and continually check a boolean. if the boolean is true, then the realy is closed, otherwise the relay is open. The problem is when I make the boolean is true, the corresponding relay is not always on, but just on-off, on-off,on-off. I don't know why? Is there any good idea to fix it?
the easy example codes is attached here , thanks for you help.

Try moving that first DAQmx function out of the while loop. Since it is called switch set and Reset, I'm guessing it is resetting the status of the switch every iteration of the while loop which probably means setting it back to false. It looks like an initialization type of function which means it should only be run once.

HT201412 apple iphone 4 ringer does not respond, mute switch is off,no volume indication on screen. Tried hard restart and reconfigured via itunes, and nothing. Can hear ringtone via earphones. Have tried almost everything with no result. Any suggestions

Apple iphone 4 no ringer, mute switch is off, no volume indicator on screen. tried hard restart and reconfigured via itunes, have IOs 6.1.2, no jailbreak. Can hear ringer with earphone- Have tried almost everything, buit nothing happens. Any suggestions?

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

My iPad switches itself off when I'm on the Internet help

When I'm using my iPad on the net it switches itself off and I'm having to turn it back on again and out in my password I only want to use it properly

Hi Lisah,
It sounds like you may have some corrupted files in the operating system -- when built-in apps and features like Camera and Siri malfunction, corrupted files are often the culprit. There are a few things you can do to fix this -- first thing I'd recommend would be to back up your device to make sure you have all of your current data and settings saved. Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
After backing up your data, try resetting all settings in Settings > General > Reset. Try the camera and charger again to see if you still see the same strange behavior. If so, there's likely a corrupted file in the iOS installation. It's pretty easy to reinstall the operating system files to fix this -- you will need a computer with internet access. Follow the steps in Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support to completely reinstall the iOS files and get a fresh, clean installation.
After using iTunes to restore the phone, go through the setup assistant on the phone and choose the option to Set up as a new iPhone. Set it up as new and test the camera again -- if it works this time, that's a good sign! After making sure it works properly, you can restore from the backup that created before doing all of the resets and restores. This will bring your content and settings back to the phone.
Good luck!

Switching on/off WiFi by main menu icon

I had configured my Snow Leopart to ask for password confirmation when switching on/off the Airport. Whenever triggered the password popup came up and the user was able to immediately enter the password, because the dialog automatically received keyboard focus.
Now, as I have upgraded to Lion, the same task ends with the effect, that the passowrd dialog does not have keyboard focus. So I have to use the mouse in order to click into the dialog so it becomes focused.
Does someone know how I can get focus into the dialog without using the mouse?
Might Apple fix this bug, as it was working fine with Snow Leopard.
best regards from Heidelberg,
OLI

Hi, that's been the case with many upgrades in the past, no idea what the cause or fix really is, but you might try removing any Networks from Airport pref pane, reboot & add yours again.

My i phone 4 keeps switching itself off

Does anyone have an issue where the I-phone 4 just switches itself off, and the only way to get it running again is to connect to the charger and switch it on , it then comes up with a message to say the battery level is it 30% ?

I have the same issue! In fact I posted this exact question!!

Hi,
My iPhone 4s 16GB is giving me a lot of issues with its battery as of late. Once the battery level reaches below about 30% the phone randomly turns itself off -- even if the battery level didn't reach zero. When I try to turn it back on, it just shows the out of charge symbol on the screen. When I plug it in however it turns itself back on immediately and shows the battery level it turned itself off on. I can then unplug it and continue to use it until the battery level drops to zero or the issue happens again.
Both my mom and my sister have the same model iPhone as me and do not have this issue. What should I do? (It has already been restored).
Additional info:
- My Phone is about 23months old
- Running iOS 6.1.3
- This issue has been happening for about 3 months or more
EDIT: Just upgraded to iOS 7... didn't help. Infact it made it worse! The phone battery now drains quicker which means the issue happens sooner!
This is so annoying!

How to get the camera shutter sound off on iphone 6?

Since iPhone 6, I can't get the camera shutter sound off by switching the silent button off.
There are no setting options available either?
I bought my phone in Japan. May be it is a local requirement.
Does any one know how to change this?

According to the following turning off the sound isn't possible in Japan. The ringer silent switch on the side does mute it on my iPhone 5s in the U.S.
On an iPhone 5, how do I turn off the camera shutter sound?

Try a reset. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider.
