PlayBook doesn't charge after OS update

I have a serious problem with my BlackBerry PlayBook. It is not getting charged even though I connect it to the power for hours. I believe the problem started after the recent OS update. I tried both USB charging as well as using power cable, but there wasn't any change.
I can turn on PlayBook and use it while the power cable is connected. The charging icon is also shown. But it is always showing 0% and the PlayBook get turned off soon after I disconnect power. There isn't any physical damages to PlayBook and power cable. Also it hadn't completely drained out before this problem occurred. After OS update even though I tried charging PlayBook while it has around 20% charge it didn't get charged.
I read some other posts about holding down the power and volume up and down buttons. But it didn't work. Anyone know what might be wrong?
Thanks in advance!

Same problem here.

My BB Playbook doesn't charge and turn on. Nothing can solve this problem. Please help!!!!

Hi everybody!
My BB playbook doesn't charge and turn on.
When I tried to charge it, at first ,the red color appears for 10 seconds and after the green color starts blinking several times. And that's all. Every time when I am charging it the same thing is repeating. What should I do in this case???
If someone knows how to solve this issue please HELP!

Hey LM344,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
If you're receiving the flashing green LED light, it sounds like the BlackBerry PlayBook battery is completely drained. I suggest plugged the BlackBerry PlayBook into the wall charger for several hours to get a charge again.
Let me know if the issue still persists after charging it after several hours.
Cheers.

Safari doesn't open after i updated it to 1.6.8

Safari doesn't open after i updated it to 1.6.8

Reinstall Safari 5.1.2
Then restart your Mac.
If that doesn't help, you may have a third party add on that was compatible with the prior version of Snow Leopard, but not 10.6.8.
Troubleshooting help here > Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
And try Safari in another user account. If you can't open Safari there as well, that's an indication the startup disk may need repairing.
Log back in to your admin account, launch Disk Utility. That's located in /Applications/Utilities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
Help for repairing the disk if necessary here > Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks

Lightroom CC 5 doesn't launch after 2014 update.

Lightroom CC 5 doesn't launch after 2014 update. Mac OSX 10.8.5. Tried the suggestion to log out of Adobe Cloud and log back in. Also rebooted computer. No luck. Photoshop CC 2014 seems to have installed perfectly. Can't install previous version either, can't even find it via Adobe Cloud. Tried re-downloading from Adobe web site but it sits there saying "downloading now" -- but nothing is downloading!

Charr please see Not able to launch Lightroom after updating it to 5.5 from Creative Cloud for possible solutions to allow Lightroom to open.

IShuffle doesn't charge after updating to iTunes 8.1

I have the first gen iShuffle (1GB) & it's been working perfectly ever since I bought it last year but after updating my iTunes to 8.1 last week it doesn't charge nor play my songs in my iShuffle, it plays them in my Library but not on my iShuffle.
I don't know why or what's the problem? because my iShuffle still works when I remove it from my computer, it's just when I try to play it on my comp it doesn't work.
what should I do?

The usb port is directly on your macbook. Some people have usb hubs which plug into the usb port to multiply the number of usb devices you can have. Like this one:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/TQ776LL/A?mco=MzE2OTkyOA
Think plugging in a toaster directly to the wall versus plugging into a power strip.
Sometimes having a usb hub in the middle can mess with things... especially when the item draws power via the usb port. (like the shuffle does).
If you have a hub....try plugging the shuffle in directly on the macbook and see if it helps.

Ipod doesn't work after firmware update

I have an old ipod and I tried to update the firmware. After the update It did'n work. ON the Ipod screen it appear like a plug indicating to charge it, but I charged it several times and the result is the same.
Now i'm trying to recover it again but my computer doesn't recognize it.
¿Is there anything I can do?
Thanks in advance.

The best place to look for help first is Genuine Apple help directly from Apple.
Read the iPod Touch Users Guide.
http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipodtouch
Also start with the basics from Apple.
1. *Restart iPod touch:* Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPod touch. To turn iPod touch back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
If you can’t turn off iPod touch or if the problem continues, you may need to reset iPod touch. A reset should be done only if turning iPod touch off and on doesn’t resolve the problem.
2. *Reset iPod touch:* Press and hold both the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
For more troubleshooting suggestions, see Appendix B, “Support and Other Information,” on page 214.

N73: restore doesn't work after firmware update

Hello!
I just made a firmware update to my N73 with NSU, and the procedure completed with no errors.
Just before the update I made a backup with the application in the phone menu; the app wrote a backup.arc file in the MMC.
After the update I tried to restore the backup via the same app.
Here's the problem: the app seems to work (but the "restore" lasts just 1-2 seconds), the phone reboots, but nothing is restored.
Googleing aroung I found a solution: buy the Noki 1.7 software, extract SMS, contacts and files from the backup.arc, and put everything back on the phone...
Is there another solution that doesn't involve buying this 3rd party software?
TIA

The phone is working well...
I have been searching in internet, and there'a a lot of people with the same problem. Everybody tells to use PC Suite to backup... if I only knew before.

Flash doesn't work after I updated it

I am using Firefox 34.0.5 and updated my flash player but after the update it stopped working. The videos doesn't show up. I tried disabling all add-ons and found out that Shockwave Flash 16.0 is causing the problem. What should I do to make it work again?
I don't know why but some videos work just fine and other videos doesn't show anything even a white or black screen, even though they're from the same site. When a video doesn't show up, the cursor changes from the normal cursor to "working in background" cursor rapidly.

Hey,
Did you try these typical Flash fixes?
(1) Disable hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox and in Flash
(A) In Firefox, un-check the box here and restart:
orange Firefox button or classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
(B) In Flash, see this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
(2) Disable protected mode (Win Vista & Win 7 & maybe Win 8)
See this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": Adobe Forums: https://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround
Hope it helps.

I did both of these but it still didn't work. I tried using another browser and found out that the problem only occurs in firefox.

Internet Connection doesn't work after windows update.

Hi everyone,
my boyfriend recently updated his laptop.
After the update his computer wouldn't work anymore. I went on the web and read some topics on the forums. And even tried some of them already.
I don't have Norton or Mcfee security software.
Operating system is Windows 7 and it's a 64-bitssystem.
I tried disabling ipv6 but that doesn't help. When i open the cmd and type ipconfig/all i get an overview of several adapters.
DHCP is enabled for everything but Tunnel-adapter for LAN-connection * 3: (sorry translating from dutch).
Also IP-routering and WINS-proxy are disabled.
Also i checked the recent updates. But for some reason the failing ones aren't amongst them.
Can someone pls help? Im wellknown with OS and can try to work with anything u name.
Thanks in Advance!
Nilu

Power off the router. Unplug it from the wall. Wait a while.
Plug it back to the wall. Power the router on. Wait until all the lights are lit properly. It will take a while.
Restart the computer.

C7 sync doesn't work after Anna update

I normally sync the agenda between outlook 2003 and C7 with Ovi-suite.
After update to symbian Anna it doesn't work.
Strange is that Ovi suite gives the number of events that did not sync.
So he can recognize them, but can't sync.
Any solutions?
Thanks!
Pietth

I have the same problem in C6-01 after Anna Update, there are another two posts around here with other people with the same issue, an, believe it or not, no answer from Nokia
My problem also affects Ovi Maps favourites. I just could update them once since Anna Update, and now that is failed too

Torch 9850 won't hold charge after OS update

I updated my blackberry last Wednesday with the latest OS (7.1), and since then, my phone won't hold a charge. I started noticing it on Thursday, and it's progressively gotten worse. A full charge will last only about 4 hours. I've changed the battery out for a new one, but to no avail. The phone won't hold a charge. It will, however, still charge with either battery (the old and the new), and after it's charged (after being totally dead) it will turn on, andit will connect to Blackberry desktop software. It just won't hold the charge. Please help...what can I do??? Note: I live in Mexico, and have no warranty, so I can't return the phone. So please, someone help with ideas that don't include getting a new phone, if it's possible. Thanks!!!
