Phone not ringing when in sleep mode

Over last few days have had problem with iPhone 4S not ringing when in sleep mode. I have just spoken to Apple support. I had do not disturb scheduled , but this was staying on all the time , which I hadn't realised. This is a fault which should be sorted by 7th Jan. hope this helps anyone else with same problem, as I did search this site first.

This is the exact problem i'm having right now, I don't know why it's happening, but when i have it on the desk and when it's in sleep mode, I can get phonecalls and it won't ring but it won't show up as missed calls either, if i get a voice message i'll get it if i take it out of sleep mode and let it sit with full reception for a minute.
I also lose all reception while in sleep mode.

Phone does not ring when in sleep mode

I have noticed that if I attempt to make a call to my phone when it is 'asleep', i.e. a few minutes after it auto locks, then it does not ring. When I 'activate' it by pressing the home button I see those calls appearing as missed calls. Any idea why this happens?

Why will my iphone 5c not ring in the sleep mode?

Why wiil my iphone 5c not ring in the sleep mode?

I have an intermittent issue with my phone not ringing in sleep mode. The Apple store replaced my original 5c yesterday, and now my new phone has the same issue. DND is off, nor is the silent toggle switch set to silent. It is maddening as I have to keep waking my phone only to see calls and texts that I've missed. Anyone have a fix? I'm powering down and on but not fully resolving.

OS X Lion: Fix for wireless not reconnecting when exiting sleep mode

http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/18931/os-x-lion-fix-for-wireless-not-reconnecting -when-exiting-sleep-mode/

I have the same symptoms with a 2011 iMac and my Senheiser Bluetooth headphones.
10.7.3 did not correct this bug.
I'm also using MS Messenger and notification sounds are also buffered until the headphones are switched on.
I found other threads dealing with this bug :

I'm currently trying the tip given in the last discussion :
"Success - in the Audio Midi Setup (Applications/Utilities) I changed the output to 2ch - 32bit Float and all the audio works well."
My headphones already had this setting, but internal speakers had 2ch - 24bit... is it a possible explanation ? Time will tell ...

Laserjet Pro 200 m276n fax not answering when in sleep mode

Hi,
We just bought a new Laserjet Pro 200 MFP M276n. When the device goes to sleep mode, it doens't recognise any incoming fax call. When the device is on, and someone tries to send us a fax, the device recognises the call, answers and receives the fax.
We tried to update the firmware to the latest version but we still have the same problem.
We use the original HP cables to connect the device to the line and when we tried to replace the device with a telephone cord, the phone rang normally. So I believe the problem is somehow on when the device is in sleep mode
Can anyone help us?
Thanks

Hi @Fedias,
I understand that when the printer goes into sleep mode, it doesn't wake up to receive a fax. I can help you with this.
Check the settings for the Wake Events on the printer.
Go to setup, System Setup, Energy Settings, Auto Power Down, Wake Events, arrow down and select Fax Ring.
This should wake up the printer when a fax comes through.
If you need further assistance, just let me know.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

Macbook not starting when in sleep mode

So my white 13 inch macbook was in sleep mode for a couple hours and usually I just press either the enter/return button or the power/startup button to wake the computer but for the past two times, it wasn't starting up unless I held the power/startup button until it completely turned off. I then had to completely restart the computer. And that was the only way I could get it to turn on. In the past, like I said, everything worked fine when I hit the enter or power button. Has this happened to anybody else's macbooks? I guess from now on I'll pretty much always have to shutdown the mac completely when not using it.

HI,
*"Will it wipe the hard drive? Will I lose files? What will change exactly*
If you read the material at those links it explains everything. It's very simple. It won't wipe the drive or lose files.
SMC: "As the name implies, it is responsible for power management of the computer. It controls backlighting, hard disk spin down, sleep and wake, some charging aspects, trackpad control, and some input/output as it relates to the computer sleeping."
These are just simple trouble shooting techniques for sleep mode issues.

Battery not charging when in sleep mode

This might sound like a dumb question but, is it normal that my shuffle does not charge when computer is in sleep mode? It's been plugged in for the last 6 hours and the amber light is still flashing. Can I change the sleep mode on my computer? surely I don't have to be working at my computer for 4 hours every time I want to charge the shuffle. thanks

You can also change your SysPrefs so that the Mac doesn't go into Sleep when you don't want it to .... for example, when you want to charge the iPod. You won't lose much by doing this; it can still be set up to shut down the display and your hard drive.
My own preference these days is to disable automatic sleep completely. If I wind up leaving for a few hours or an afternoon, I don't mind leaving it in the 'near sleep' mode that it goes into and even that happens only when I overlook putting it to sleep manually. You can do that with the remote, with the power button, or of course via the Apple Menu.

This usually happens when you might have an application which is still running and is failing to quit. Check Activity Monitor for a list of all your processes.

Hello,
Have you tried removing your battery to restart your BlackBerry smartphone and then test. Also make sure you are able to make outbound calls as well.
Thank you.

When in sleep mode iPhone 4 loses signal but when it's back on it searches and finds signal only recently doing this and because it's searching for signal battery not lasting very long please help

When in sleep mode iPhone 4 loses signal but as soon as its on again it searches and finds signal easily but because of this not getting calls or text msges and because it's searching for signal all the time battery not lasting

Here are some observations and a suggestion.
1) I mentioned before, that the number of views of this discussion forum is fast approaching 100,000. I suppose relative to all iPhones sold that is not a great percentage, but 100,000 still sounds pretty impressive to me. Consider also that many people probably have this same Sim problem and are not viewing this discussion forum because thay do not know it exists. How many people are REALLY experiencing this problem? Who knows. But I suspect it is more that 100,000.
2) To the best of my knowledge, Apple does not consult these forums as a guide to awareness of product performance. It may be company policy, but most of the time when I speak to an Apple employee they seem remarkably unaware of the "Top Stories" in the Apple Discussion Forum. This, despite the fact that my personal experience with customer service at Apple is excellent. So, as much as we of this discussion forum are confident SOMEONE important at Apple is reading all our posts and taking them to heart...I am not so sure.
3) I have been told over and over that the best way to gain Apple's attention regarding a problem is to post a comment on their Feedback Site. One comment about a problem is pretty worthless. 100,000 comments on the same issue, I'm guessing, will really get their attention.
4) Some folks have mentioned a recall to address this problem. Although such a thing is always a possibility, I don't see it happening. Why? When the brakes on a Toyota don't work, or that Toyata starts to accelerate without driver intention...well, that involves human life and the stakes are quite high. For many reasons you would see the automotive industry eventually be forced into a recall program under such a situation. But, a phone APPEARS to not nearly be such a life and death device. Or is it? My daughter's iPhone 4S developed a "SIM FAILURE" on the same day her car broke down in the middle of the very rural area we live at around 10:00 pm. She is 17 years old and was coming home from high school play practice. You can imagine the anxiety I and her mother felt when she did not arrive home on time. She eventually walked about a quarter mile to a house of a stranger and had to ask to use their phone to call us. Now, I am not saying that strangers where I live are not to be trusted. But, in addition to being worried out of my mind, I was not happy that an inoperative iPhone 4S caused my daughter to be put in this situation. My biggest concern now is...when will my daughter's iPhone become inoperative again due to SIM FAILURE?
5) The more folks in this discussion forum who post a comment about this issue in Apple's feedback site the more pressing this issue is going to be perceived by Apple. So, I like others, encourage all of you to do so. If this seems like a lot of effort, I offer you these few sentences below that you could just copy and paste into the feedback site.
The link to feedback site is: http://www.apple.com/feedback/
Feel free to use copy/amend/whatever the following as you wish:
Dear Apple,
I wish to register a strong concern about my iPhone's unpredictable inoperability due to failures somehow associated with it's SIM technology. For me, I do not consider this just a significant lack of convenience, but a significant safety issue. Should I need my phone in an emergency situation where it is experiencing a SIM FAILURE, I believe the iPhone will have put me at risk. I would ask you to please give fixing this problem your greatest priority and effort.
Sincerely, XXXX

My iPhone 5 will not ring when my phone number is called.

Despite the "Silent" button on the side of the iPhone 5 being set to off, and the ringer turned on full blast, my iPhone 5 will not ring when any number calls my phone. This is not an issue with the settings, which are all set for the phone to ring. Has anyone else run into this problem, or may have a solution besides taking the phone in for repair? My phone is no longer covered under the one year limited manufacturer's warranty, so any repair is likely going to cost a minimum of almost $300.
Thanks in advance for the help!
