Playbook sleepmode unlocks with slightest touch

My playbook has 2.0.1.358 OS and everytime i lock it by pressing the power button once and i grasp the playbook to put it away it turns on again this is a nuissance since i cant even touch it without wasting batteries is there a way to disable this?

It is a very light sleeper. Set the screen timer to a low value so it goes into sleep mode sooner if it does come back on. I did have that problem until I got a portfolio case for it. Once the case closes, the PB won't wake again until I open it and do the swipe.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • Iphone 5s had white light leaks on lcd after unlocked with touch id

    My iphone 5s had white light leaks on lcd after unlocked with touch id. It's a bit confusing because if I unlock with passcode, there's no white light leaks. Does anyone have the same issue? What should I do?

    Title: Burst of White Light on iPhone 5S and iPhone 6
    Description:
    On unlocking the device with Touch ID a burst of white light is produced from the Top Left/Right corners of the screen.
    It happens when more than two folders are created i.e three/four folders each having some applications and the phone is locked while on the same screen.
    If no folder or maximum two folders are created then no such burst is produced when unlocking with Touch ID.
    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Configure Touch ID
    2. Use Black/Dark wallpaper on Home & Lock Screen.
    3. Create minimum four folders either on the home screen or the second having some applications in each.
    4. Being on Home Screen lock the phone.
    5. Unlock with Touch ID and a Burst of White Light will appear on Top Left/Right Corner.
    6. Now move/drag two of the folders to the other second page.
    7. Go back to Home Screen and lock the phone.
    8. Unlock with Touch ID and there is no Burst of White Light.
                        OR
    Repeat step 1 and 2 as listed above.
    1. Go to the second screen (after home screen) and create three or four folders with applications in it.
    2. Lock the iPhone while on the same screen.
    3. Unlock with Touch ID and there is a Burst of White Light.
    4. Now drag or remove the folders with only two left.
    5. Lock the iPhone while on the same screen.
    6. Unlock with Touch ID and there is no Burst of White Light.
    NOTE: If iPhone is LOCKED and UNLOCKED when on the screen with no folders NO WHITE BURST is there.
    Problem Since:
    Burst of White Light when apps added to a folder and unlocked with Touch ID. This is noticed since the update iOS 7.0.6 [11B651]
    Devices:
    The burst of light on iPhone 5s is easily recognized but on iPhone 6 its for a fraction of a second. Not checked on iPhone 6+.

  • When unlocking with touch ID phone goes black with apple icon then locks again?

    when I go to unlock my screen with the "touch ID" the home screen opens for a flash then goes to a black screen and the "apple" logo appears for 10-20 seconds then locks again.  If I try to unlock with touch ID again it'l work usually.  When using my pass code with the keypad no issue.  Phone is brand new 7.0.4 software was already installed on the phone. 

    Thanks for the input.
    Unfortunately that is not my case: I close all open apps several times a day and just had four open windows in Safari.
    I closed all of them, just to make sure and did a reboot.
    That helped for around 5 times, then the phone does the same thing again.
    It actually doesn't reboot but just displays the black apple logo on a white screen for about 10 seconds and after that gives me the home screen.
    So it is definitely not a reboot, I think.
    Until now I assume it is an error, it would just be nice to know if it is a hardware or software error.....

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:

    iPad Service Support and Costs
    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
    1. iResq or Google for others.
    2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

  • Help on syncing multiple calendars with iPod Touch 4g 64g

    In our university, we use iCal with Blackboard. Also, our main *email* is Entourage - pretty sure it's the most recent version for Mac. 
    How can we sync the Entourage calendar with iCal, and be sure that they are all merged and 2-way functional for the iPod touch and laptops (I know for multiple computers we'll have to set up home sharing - for now let's just focus on the calendar syncing). 
    I have instructions for syncing Entourage with iPod Touch, and it's been recommended to use Google to sync with iCal (thanks llllass) but we don't want to use Google or MobileMe to get to iCal.  iCal is already built into the iPod Touch, as I'm sure you know.
    Any advice on how to make this super simple?
    Thanks in advance.

    My first suggestion is to try Stanza, as it is a much more configurable ebook reader.  You can use the
    Calibre (ebook management/conversion utility) to transfer ebooks from your computer to your iPod Touch.
    <http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30657/calibre>
    Looking at iBooks on my iPod Touch, my font selection and font size are only present when I have an ebook open.  If I tap the center of a page, the top edge of the screen has
    Library | Table of Contents | Brightness | aA (font size, and font selection) | Search | Bookmark
    Where the aA icon brings up a control that has a small a and a large A.  If I tap on the large A, each tap increases the font size until it gets REALLY BIG.  Tapping on teh small a reduces the font size for each tap.
    Landscape lock.  OK for the iPod Touch as a whole, you put the iPod Touch in the orientation you desire, then you quick double-tap on the home button.  This will bring up a list of your running apps.  Now slide the list to the right, and you will see music controls as well as on the far left a screen lock button.  Tap the screen lock button to lock your iPod Touch in its current orientation.  Unlock it later when you want your iPod Touch to be able to rotae again.
    NOTE:  Stanza as an ebook reader, it has its own configuration control that locks Stanza into a specific orientation, independent of the iPod Touch orientation or the iPod Touch orientation lock.  Another reason I like Stanza.
    Wallpaper.  I think you can only change it to something else.  Settings -> Wallpaper, then tap on the screen you want to change.  Now select a different Wallpaper from either the Wallpaper selections, or anything in your Camera Roll, or your Photo Library.

  • How do i unlock my ipod touch when it wont leave recovery mode?

    My ipod touch will not leave recovery mode, and when I plug it into itunes a window pops up saying i need to unlock my ipod touch before it can sync. I cant do this, because it will not leave recovery mode to let me unlock it. What should i do?

    Try RecBoot to kick it out of Recovery Mode.

  • How do I unlock my ipod touch that shows a red disabled screen, and not been able to connect to the original computer it was sync to?

    How do I unlock my ipod touch showing a red ipod disabled connect to itunes, with the disadvantage of not having the original computer that my ipod was sync to?

    If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, you'll need to restore the iPod. Since you don't have the original computer, this will erase all the content on the iPod. For information and instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPod into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

    How to unlock my ipod touch 4 when forgotten passcode ?

    You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it.  If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.

  • Siri can be activated with Assistive Touch?

    I was playing around with Assistive Touch and somehow activated Siri.
    Initially I thought it was because my hand got too close to the sensor that triggers the "Raise to Speak" function.
    Out of curiosity, I googled about Siri and Assistive Touch and apparently I'm not the only one who managed to bring out Siri with Assistive Touch. So I continued playing with the "Home" icon on Assistive Touch and managed to get Siri activated a couple more times. My phone was on a flat table surface, and I only used one finger to randomly tap on the Home button (of Assistive Touch) for different durations. So there was little chance that it was the sensor that triggered Siri.
    Siri was activated with just Assistive Touch, that's one thing I'm sure of. But the combination of Home button taps or duration, I'm really not sure.
    Can someone share whether they know exactly how to activate Siri without pressing the physical Home Button or using "Raise to Speak", and only using Assistive Touch?
    I've been playing with the Home button on Assistive Touch for the past hour or so and managed to get Siri out about 6 times. I don't think it's a random thing, with technology, its usually some definitive way to get the result.

    Before you slide to unlock
    tap the home button on assistive touch and hold ,will bring up Siri
    That That is all I found out so far, still try the second way (after slide unlock )
