Off button doesn't turn off iPhone5 after using third party car charger.

After trying to use a third party car charger from Amazon.ca, my iPhone5 no longer shuts down by holding down the power button.  Also, when I want to put the phone to sleep and push the power button quickly, it doesn't sleep so I have to hold it down for a couple of seconds.  Sometimes it doesn't sleep at all.  I tried restoring my phone but that didn't help the problem.

I would check your serial number here, https://ssl.apple.com/support/iphone5-sleepwakebutton/ , and see if your iPhone may be one of the devices that qualifies.

  • Iphone 5 not charging after using third party charger.

    I know there's a lot of threads that discuss this topic but I haven't found someone who has the exact situation as mine.
    I broke my original charging cable and replace it with a third party thunderbolt cable. It charges once by fluctuating all the time. Now my battery is 0% and the third party thunderbolt cable doesn't work. I decided to replace it with an original thunderbolt cable but it still doesn't charge. It doesn't show anything even the battery symbol. Just blank off screen. I also let it plugged as I hope that it just needs to charge the battery because it's drained but I guess that's not the case. I'm charging via the wall charger.  I also tried to connect it in the usb port of my computer and it still doesn't work. Any fixes that you guys can recommend? I am on a panic right now. . Technically this cable should work as this is the cable from apple. Thanks.

    Yes I'm well aware of patents but I have used third party chargers fine with all my previous iphones. I can buy replacement third party chargers to all my other electronics, why is it that apple has to tie me into using their charging cable, it is anti-competitive and possibly an illegal practice.
    If you aren't going to offer helpful advice, then please don't state the obvious!! I wasn't aware that cables were under warranty, so being in a position that I couldn't afford another apple charger I have used another charger which has by the looks of things broken my phone. So again can I do anything to try and fix it? Does anyone know whether I have a case against the manufacturer of the 3rd party cable? Is apple being anti competitive? Id appreciate helpful comments please.

  • Please please can some one tell me how do you charge ur ipad with ur laptop. it doesn't chage wen I put use the wire. only charges when I plug the socket in.

    please please can some one tell me how do you charge ur ipad with ur laptop. it doesn't chage wen I put use the wire. only charges when I plug the socket in. Iv never used an ipad b4 so don't really know much. Hope some one knowz.

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

    In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

  • Sound for messages and e-Mail get turned off after using handsfree in car

    Does anyone have a solution when sounds alerting messages and e-mails are turned off after using the phone in var with handsfree (using Bluetooth)? The sounds are turned back on when restarting the phone but reoccurs after driving in car with handsfree again. This is very annoying when takling several trips with car during a day. The phone still rings when receiving a call.

    I did find a solution to my iPhone-iPod-music-overriding-streaming-streaming-services-while-connected-to-USB problem  Although, this solution is likely only applicable to BMW owners with the BMW Apps feature aka 6NR.
    There may be other/simpler ways, but this seems to work:
    1) Launch Pandora (or could be Mog, or other BMW Apps app) BEFORE you start iPhone/iPod playback
    2) Start playback of Pandora via ConnectedDrive/BMW Apps.
    3) Press Home button on iPhone, launch your streaming app.
    The car still seems to think it's in the ConnectedDrive audio menu, as evidenced by the Entertainment details screen. You can now consistently play back any other audio service via your iPhone without the iPod audio overriding what you're doing. Good times! The only drawback so far is lack of ability to skip tracks via the steering wheel.
    As long as you haven't started iPhone/iPod playback when you get in the car, you can often skip steps #1 and #2, and go straight into the ConnectedDrive menu, then go to step #3.  Either way, following steps #1-3 works everytime.

  • IMac display doesn't turn back on after sleep

    This is a new problem on my two-year old iMac, and didn't happen before. What is happening with my iMac is that when it goes to sleep and the display turns off, the display doesn't turn back on when I move the mouse, press the keys or the power button.
    It happens only after around 12 hours or so of inactivity, it seems. I have to reboot the iMac to force the display to turn back on. I think it is display issue, not the computer lockup because I checked which logs were written in /var/log - system.log was being written until I rebooted the iMac. However, I didn't see any information in there around the same time that I tried to turn the iMac back on.
    Any ideas on how to debug the issue.

    Hi dailyjoe
    1. Reset your SMC exactly as instructed in the following article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1543
    2. It would be normal for you to have to startup your iMac if it lost power while in sleep mode, look at the box "Start up automatically after a power failure" in the Energy Saver preference.
    I have always left the box for "Start up automatically after a power failure" unchecked and do occasionally find the iMac is shutdown because the power has gone off. I would suggest leaving the box unchecked, it's better than having the iMac going off & restarting multiple times if you are having bad weather or power issues.

  • Managed Account permissions issues after all third party updates

    I run a lab with 34 student accounts that are "Managed" using 10.5.7. I have given students permission to use specific software and all aspects of the software in Accounts/Parental Controls. When I update Microsoft Office or Adobe CS4, I have to go into every single student account and into each individual program to "always allow" which is about 10 programs for each machine. Of coarse all the checkmarks in the parental controls are already checked off for the student account when I check under parental controls?
    Anybody having this issue. This happens on both Intel and PowerPc's.
    This happens on fresh installs of Leopard to disks that have been zeroed out, on updates from Tiger and on CC cloned machines.
    I have of coarse repaired all permissions before and after the updates.
    It is extrememely laborious to have to do this after small incremental updates to third party software.
    Actually, I've had to do it with Safari as well. It may not just be a third party issue.
    One things for certain. It is ****.
    Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Is DW installed on a server or is it installed on a user's desktop?  If it is installed on a server then it won't install properly because it is not designed to be run from a server because of licensing issues.  Adobe can't allow you to use one user license and then installing on a server and so used by 100 other users.When you reply please also state your operating system.

  • Turning off iPad after use

    I notice that whenever I turn off iPad and then turn it back on later, it seems to run more efficiently. Will turning it off after every use and then turn it back on later be bad for the life of the iPad?

    Shouldn't be - there are no moving parts, so no extra wear and tear. I restart mine periodically (maybe once a week or so)
    A possible explanation is that restarting kills off all running apps, freeing up memory. You might get the same effect by using the multi-tasking bar to kill off surplus apps. Double-tap the Home button to get the bar, then tap and hold an app icon until they show the red badge. Tap the red badge for each one you want to kill off.

  • TS3274 I have a black screen with the circle downloading on the i pad but it won't turn off even after using troubleshooting tips. Does anyone know what to do ?

    I have a black screen which has the downloading circle going round and round but which is otherwise frozen and won't respond to
    troubleshooting suggestions for turning it off and rebooting. Any suggestions please ?

    Reboot:  Do this exactly:  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until you see the Apple Logo, then let go of both buttons and your iPad should restart.

  • Apple logo keeps repeating, cant turn off even after using MENU+Middle

    Whenever I was uploading music to my ipod, then i check the music and when I click on it (on my Ipod) nothing playing, i restart the Ipod now the Apple logo repeats itself over and over and i cant turn it off or get it to work. HELP.

    leave it connected to the computer for a while and try the reset ( menu and middle button) again....
    if the apple logo is still the only thing appearing i would go ahead and send that in for repair

  • At random times, the home button and power button doesn't turn on the phone

    Okay so, I got an brand new iPhone 5 last December.
    Now, it has been acting weird for the past month or so.
    At random times, the phone doesn't respond when I press the home button or sleep button when it is at sleep. The phone finally responds after a minute by getting to the lock screen. The phone IS on. The home button and sleep button do work..The only time it sometimes doesn't respond is when it is at sleep.
    If I'm listening to music, it also stops the music and the phone doesn't respond as mentioned before.
    Could someone tell me what is happening?
    Anyone have any similar cases of this problem?

    Try this and see if it clears things up:
    Hold down the Home and Sleep buttons down simultaneously until you see the white Apple logo. Ignore the shut down prompt. This is a hard reset and most of the time clears up weird things like this.
    If that doesn't work, try restoring your phone in iTunes. There is likely something corrupt in the OS that just needs to be reset.

  • Exported Image Doesn't Match Export Presets After Use of Straightening Tool

    Unlike my experience with previous versions, in Aperture 2.1, after applying the "Straightening Tool", I cannot get an exported image to match the dimensions set for "Export Preset." The results are a reduction in size.
    It appears that the output is being based within the rectangular confines defined by the out of view corners of the rotated image rather than that of what is actually being displayed.
    Is there a new method I am missing or is this a bug?

    So, like really, no one has experienced this problem?
    The resulting dimensions of the exported image, which was rotated by the "Straightening Tool" are smaller than that of the export image, of the same picture, not rotated, but with the same "Export Preset" selected.
    Example:
    I want all my exported images to be a dimension of 200 x 300 pixels. Those exported without the "Straightening Tool" applied are exactly 200 x 300. Those, say with a 10º "Rotate" applied to the original and, exported with the same "Export Preset" dimensions, result in an image which is 145 x 216 pixels in dimension.
    This is very unlike Aperture 1.5.6, in which the exported output of both image versions would be identical, at 200 x 300 pixels in dimension.

  • My tab button doesn't work anymore and I use the "command  Tab" keyboard shortcut to change between open applications.  A LOT.

    I have a wireless keyboard and the tab key stopped working today.  I don't know if I can work effectively without the tab key.  I use x.7.4
    I don't have the money to purchase a new computer so I'm thinking a good workaround would be to use another key for TAB.  How can I do this? 

    If you have a Mac Mini, you just need a new keyboard.   Logitech, MacAlly, and Microsoft all make Mac compatible keyboards.   
    iOS is not running on your machine.   It is Mac OS X 10.7.4 you need to be selecting for your signature.
