Possible iPhone bug:

Hi All,
When I connect my iPhone 3G to the standard $29.00 dock, with the audio out on the back of the dock connected to computer's input, all sounds played on my iPhone play on my computer's audio just fine, it's iPod, dialing pad, ringer, actual phone calls, etc., except for voicemail, that won't work through the dock. "Speaker" is the only option for audio output when listening to voicemail (visual voicemail), and neither Speaker on nor off routes the audio through my dock's audio out. It works when I plug into the headphone jack on the iPhone, but not on the dock - is this a bug, oversight, or maybe setting I've missed?
Love to hear your thoughts.

Haha, turns out I was right the first time, it was only $29, I looked at the $49 version and it definitely looked a little different, mine looks exactly like the one for $29, this is the link:

It says "iPhone 3G Dock" - I'm sure that's what I've got, I bought it from an Apple store, I asked an employee for a dock specifically for my iPhone 3G. Sorry about the confusion.

  • Possible iPhone bug with custom recurring day schedule?  Need help.

    In Microsoft Outlook I have a 64 day schedule that is set up as single all day recurring events each day. Each day of the 64 day schedule recurrs every 64 days. Day 1 recurrs every 64 days, day 2 recurrs every 64 days, etc., etc.
    When I synced this to an iPhone, each day had an incorrect custom recurring day set at every 18 days. This, of course threw off the whole schedule. After doing some testing, I found out that a custom recurr of 45 days worked, a custom recurr of 46 days told the iPhone it recurred every 1 day. 47 day recurr did the same thing. 48 day recurr told the iPhone it recurred every 2 days, 49 day recurr became 3 days, 50 became 4 days, 51 became 5 days...64 became 18 days.
    Is this indeed a bug with iPhone or is there something I can do for a single 1 day event recurr every 64 days? And, why is there no custom setting when setting up an event on the iPhone?

    Apparently, no one has a solution for you. It may be a bona fide bug. You can let Apple know about that:

    -option to hear sounds every time you press a button, not only keyboard
    -ability to choose sound for a particular function, for example, say you didn’t like the “New Voicemail” sound, you should be able to change it like you can do in a Treo
    -certain photos won’t show up ONLY in “Add Photo” mode when editing Contacts, you just get a black screen
    -iPhoto should not come to front of screen when syncing (it does for me in a Leopard seed I’m using)
    -Ability to check for new mail every minute, not a minimum of 15!
    -Option to keep current screen on when phone is locked for a certain amount of time, like a Treo
    -Wallpaper slideshow and video capability
    If Apple thinks that they can intentionally leave “key” features out of the iPhone just to make us think that the iPhone2 is a “significant update”, then Apple isn’t the company I thought it was. Make your phone the “best” it can possibly be for the time it comes out. Don’t leave out “standard” smartphone technology that will make people think twice about trashing their Treo or Blackberry. Adding true GPS or upgrading the internal memory is a different story, but things like the inability to copy and paste, the inability to record video, and the inability to use voice dialing should definitely not be issues with iPhone’s release, especially due to the fact that Apple had more than six months to test the thing. I really hope Apple fixes a lot of these “flaws” immediately or else iPhone won’t be as successful and as respected as it could have been.
    Just trying to help. Please forward this to the appropriate iPhone Development department.

  • Ios 5 possible firmware bug for iPhone 4; Voice command/text-to-speech doesn't work properly.

    I upgraded an AT&T and Verizon iPhone 4 to the ios 5 firmware, and I am having the same exact issues for both phones.  When using the voice command a few times, the audio voice does not come through the "speaker" (referring to the speaker located at the bottom of the phone).  Instead, the audio voice goes through the receiver which is on the front face of the phone, on the right of the camera.
    For example, say you want to use the voice command to dial a phone number.  You would enable voice command by depressing and holding down the "Home" button and give the command "dial...1-800-452-3456", the phone would then repeat the phone number back to you through the "speaker".  However, when I did this a few times, the voice instantly goes to the receiver instead.  I found no way to fix this problem.  I tried the following and none of these solutions worked:
    Turned the phone off and back on again
    Hard reset (held down the Home and Lock button for 10 seconds)
    Restored the phone, and set the phone up as a "new iPhone" instead of restoring from back up
    After trying to restore both iPhones and still have the same issue, I made an appointment to visit Apple.  I took the Verizon iPhone 4 to Apple, and the employees handed over a refurbished iphone in hopes to solve this issue.  However, this refurbished phone still had the same exact issue. 

    Of course I checked my apps library and found nothing. However I'm looking at the status while sync is processing, I'm 100% sure that app is not synced to my iTunes library
    Yep, I can always manually "transfer purchases" to my iTunes library. But this is not the point. On my old iPhone 4 and new iPad (3rd gen), it will sync all newly installed apps from my iOS devices to my iTunes library, no need to click "Transfer Purchases" again.

  • Iphone 4 (White MC604FB) Update iOs 6.0 - Wifi Problem and iphone bug when trying to unlock on call receive. Is this a known bug ?

    Dear Members (and Apple Team)
    I have two iphones 4 and two bugs on the white one
    1/ Is the first gen (Black)
    2/ Is the second gen (White MC604FB)
    I both uptdated the into Update iOs 6.0 -
    Bug 1 : With the white iPhone 4 i have a real Wifi Problem, as close as 5 to 7 meters from any WiFi spot, i lose the signal, where my "black" iphone at the same time and same distance shows full signal (and tested with safari.... works).
    Bug 2 : Once the white iphone is in "stand by" when trying to unlock on incoming call, the touch screen works and receive the touch information, but it bugs on trying to unlock to receive the call. (very very anoying :o) have to call back almost every time.
    Are those already known bugs ? Is there a fix ?

  • How It Was Fixed (Possible Software Bug Not Hardware): Getting the iMac Screen/Menus Garbled and/or Yellow Circle Before Getting Into Finder Issues?

    Hi. Possible fix done to my late- 2009 iMac's screen/graphics issue that may work God willing, hopefully for most [In my case it sometimes had that yellow circle that appears before it goes to the Finder but mostly it was a messed up desktop and menus (unreadable mostly) after months, prayers and weeks of fixing it; recommended to be read entirely first coz' it's a bit complicated (like a lot of subplots). If uncomfortable to try coz' it involved a GPU stress test, contact your authorized Apple service center for their advice]. I had an iMac (late 2009) screen garbling a few hours ago (was weeks ago when it resurfaced until it got worse that it's at every boot on Mavericks):
    †        I booted to Snow Leopard USB external (my back-up OS) drive then run the first    person shooter at redeclipse.net. I set everything to max, including the display, resolution and graphics setting with fullscreen and v-sync on. I then refreshed it which brought it back to normal (I then tested it's stability with GPUTest 0.7 with Furmark for 15 minutes). * if the display options have been set to max before, bring it back to the default then refresh and then max it again Possibly any games that's has the graphic settings (or more advanced) of Red Eclipse could work (other free ones are Xonotic and Open Arena which are based on Quake 1 or 3s engine I believe).
    Optional but not recommended (have warrantied if that's still available or have it repaired at authorized service centers):
    If that doesn't work, review articles and videos on how to open an Intel iMac and get an iPhone/iPad/another way to get to the 'net ready for research (I opened mine very carefully on the right side with a cutter with blade extended far prying it carefully then I inserted a flat end, sturdy plastic used for mixing epoxy then removed the cutter carefully to let the plastic mixing tool do the prying) to see if the cable connected to the logicboard which is on top of, is connected (mine was detached but I'm not sure if the adjusting and tilting of the screen overtime for 2 & 1/2 years, detached it) then do † above again.
    It could to be a software problem, a possible Apple ATI driver bug that takes overtime to surface (2 1/2 years it resurfaced because this started in my case after upgrading to Lion when Apple coded things mostly from the ground up. Snow Leopard didn't have this problem). 
    Thank you for your time. Have a great upcoming sunday mass/great upcoming weekend. I hope this helps.
    God bless, Rev. 21:4, Matt. 16:18

    Does an external display also act in a similar manner as the internal one?
    Some earlier Intel-based iMacs had graphic processor card issues; not sure what
    the symptoms of the majority of them were, but some had odd patterns, others
    went black, and some would range from OK to totally unusable. Among others.
    So there is a chance the graphic processor may be going out; or just the circuitry
    that controls the backlight. An inverter may be weak or other circuit to the display
    could be wearing out.
    http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
    If you have access to an Apple Store with Genius bar, they can perform some kinds
    of diagnostic tests there even though the computer is out-of-warranty; that may be
    of help to narrow down the cause of the symptoms you've noticed. They may not be
    able to repair it, however, at an Apple Store; as it is rather old by today's standard.
    An Apple Authorized Service Provider could do repairs and testing on older models
    the Apple Store's Genius and other may not be set up to handle due to vintage.
    Find an Apple Authorized Service Provider
    Visit an Apple Retail Store
    There is a country locator page to help find either of the above in regions outside
    of the US & Canada, not sure how the above links would work; and it appears my
    bookmarks to the country locator page may not be accessible now to post here.
    You may be able to get an idea about what kinds of parts support the display
    function by name by looking into an iFixit.com repair guide for your iMac series.
    Hopefully the parts supporting the display are the reason it is dimming down, as
    a graphic processor failure likely would exhibit other behaviors than just dimming.
    PS: I see you've added content to your thread after I'd started working on this
    & the answer likely is a hardware repair; professional testing is worth the time
    and you seem to have at least one other thread on the same topic....
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • IPhone bug causes 600mb download over 3G in 20 min?

    Hi everyone,
    Just wanted to tell you my first experience with unintended data usage on my iPhone 3GS.
    So on the 17th of March while in a class i noticed my iPhone was abnormally hot. Thought that was strange but not knowing the cause I waited to see if it would cool down. So 15 minutes later it was still hot and at the same time I noticed the battery was draining excessively quickly, from 70% to 25% in like 15 minutes. Not knowing what was happening i choose to shut down then restart with airplane mode activated so the battery would last for the rest of the day. Wasn't sure what happened until a few days later my account was updated showing data usage of 100% of my allocated iPhone data. The usage was on the same day that the above story occurred. As a result i was charged an excess fee of $60 on my account.
    Now it could just be a coincidence that i some how downloaded 600mb at some other point on that day but that cant be the case as i don't download things that big ever. I don't tether it to a PC. I use a PC at home to do any data intensive stuff. I have bigpond cable at home which i connect to via wifi, which is the only time i update app's, with the device in my hand while its updating. I do not view movies or videos on my phone. The data usage was completely abnormal.
    My iphone was locked while this was happening, isnt that meant to stop things like this? Isnt there restrictions on what apps can do while the phone is locked?
    It was obviously a bug in an app or the iOS that caused it to continue to download junk that I didn't request or need. Is there any way to stop this?
    I have looked in to apps like Dataman, are they a solution to problems like this?
    When will Apple offer a solution to these kinds of problems?
    I Can install software on my PC that would stop it from using excess data. At least allow us to restrict usage even slightly. 
    App's I think i was using before it happened: Appigo Todo, Atomic Web, Lastpass.
    My Bill - 3 Mobile was nice enough to waive the $10 after 10 minutes and then the full amount($60.74) after 1.5 hours on the phone! The main argument i used was that it's not fair for there to be not option to stop excess usage from occurring, while at the same time allowing devices with bugs(maybe) like this to be on their network.

    Hi,
    in my experience there is a difference between an IMAP
    and a POP3 acccount. With a MobileMe IMAP email account
    i always have to tap on the attachments to download them
    completely when they are bigger than 100 KB - there seems
    to be an automatic limit in the iPhones Mail app.
    With a POP3 account all attachments are downloaded auto-
    matically - no matter which size they have.
    I can't unterstand, why there is a difference. That is
    nonsense. Not everyone has IMAP email accounts.
    And an attachment download size limit only with IMAP and
    not with POP3 is incomprehensible. If you got no mobile
    flatrate that can cost lots of money!
    My wish is a possibility to set a size limit for the
    attachment download or a limit similar to the IMAP limit.
    Regarads,
    Josch

  • HT4528 My IPhone Bugged out/It is currently in the reset mode. I need to exchange all of my contacts from my Yahoo acct. to my new IPHONE. Can you please help me?

    Hello ,
    I purchased my IPHONE about 2 months ago. I am visiting family in DE & this tuesday it starting to go off & on by itself. Then the icons looked like they were floating . Then I could not call or text . The SIRI device would not work. Then it would shut down then the apple icon would reappear. I took it to a verizon dealer in Rehoboth DE & they said it BUGGED OUT/It is in a RESTORE MODE. It will not turn on. We could not transfer anny of my pics or contacts. I never even had a chance to back up the memory on ITUNES.
    The tech @ Verizon said to contact APPLE to trouble shoot and try and transfer the contacts from my yahoo acct.
    Can you please help?
    Gina

    set up your yahoo account in mail, contacts, calendars as an Exchange Account and you should be able to get your contacts from Yahoo from there.

  • Suggestion for a possible iphone with slide out keyboard.

    I dont really know if there is a suggestion forum but i thought it would be neat if apple designed a iphone with a physical keyboard for those people who love to text. Apple could even run a internet pole to see what there customers would think i mean the iphone is top notch but i think having one with a slide out keyboard could possibly increase apples sales. Any who just thought id throw that out there and keep up the great work Apple.

    This is where you need to go with your suggestion: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
    I would not hold my breath.

  • Thinkpad S540 possible BIOS bug concerning WOL

    I have had a Thinkpad S540 for a few months, and have it installed as dual boot Windows 8.1 and arch linux.  After completely shutting the machine down from linux I found that the battery would be down to around 70% charge after three days unused, and decided to investigate this problem since it was not reasonable for a new battery to lose charge at anything like this rate.
    By chance I came across a piece of information concerning the issue of disabling WOL (Wake on LAN) on the network interface, since I had seen one report that by default WOL is enabled and this requires power to be going to the network interface even when shut down in order to be able to respond to magic packets to start the machine up when it is shut down.
    First I checked the BIOS WOL setting and found it was set to "AC only" by default. So I changed it to disabled. This machine has the latest available BIOS version 1.54.
    However on investigating this after rebooting in linux I found that 
    # cat /sys/class/net/enp3s0/device/power/wakeup
    enabled
    # ethtool enp3s0 | grep Wake-on
    Supports Wake-on: pumbg
    Wake-on: g
    So WOL was still enabled despite it being set to disabled in the BIOS!
    I learned that I can make sure that in arch linux the WOL setting can be changed to set to disabled after bootup by using a udev rule:
    # cat 70-disable_wol.rules
    ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", KERNEL=="enp3s0", RUN+="/usr/bin/ethtool -s enp3s0 wol d"
    Then rebooting the machine I checked the WOL setting and it really is disabled now:
    # ethtool enp3s0 | grep Wake-on
    Supports Wake-on: pumbg
    Wake-on: d
    # cat /sys/class/net/enp3s0/device/power/wakeup
    disabled
    So I then ensured that the battery was 100% charged and shut down the machine and left it two and a half days - rebooting this morning the battery was still at 100% charge and no longer discharges unnecessarily when the machine is switched off,  so this is a clear indication of a bug in the BIOS for the WOL setting - it is still enabled despite the BIOS saying it is disabled!
    How do I report this to Lenovo so that they can fix the BIOS and release a new one that is working?
    I am aware of other users with different Thinkpads who seem to have the same problem, so this may be more widespread an issue than just on the S540.  
    It is also not just an issue with the battery running down when fully shut down but will likely also be a problem for a machine in suspend mode since the network interface may be consuming a watt or so of power when in suspend, which will again run the battery down at an unacceptable rate.
    I cannot imagine any use case where it would be necessary to have WOL enabled on a laptop that is mostly going to be used mobile - so having the default setting to AC only enabled, and having a BIOS bug enabling it when it is explicitely disabled is a serious problem.

    Anyone running windows in the same laptop can check the same issue of battery drain due to WOl being enabled by default - in the Device Manager under the network card, opening the settings menu for the ethernet wired card the default for Wake-on-LAN on my computer was set to enabled. This can be changed to disabled, and you may need to also disable the setting for Wake on Magic Packet. Also in the Power Management tab it is possible to uncheck the settings for "Allow this device to wake the computer" and "Only allow a magic packet to wake the computer"
    In my laptop these were all set to enabled by default.

  • Possible code bug causing crash on Wine/Linux

    As I am running Linux, I don't expect support as such but thought I would offer a possible contribution to the beta program as follows:
    When starting Safari under Wine (an implementation of the Win32 API) on Linux, I get the following debug message:
    DIB_GetBitmapInfo (44): unknown/wrong size for header
    What I understand this to mean is that the Windows function GetBitmapInfo is being passed a dodgy parameter.
    This is followed by a crash for me, but I guess on Windows, is quietly ignored.
    I have seen a report on CodeProject regarding an identical crash caused by a coder setting the biSize member of the bmiHeader (BITMAPHEADERINFO) element of a BITMAPINFO structure to the incorrect size. In the example given, it had been set to sizeof(BITMAPINFO) rather than sizeof(BITMAPINFOHEADER)
    e.g.
    bmpInfo.bmiHeader.biSize = sizeof (BITMAPINFO);
    instead of
    bmpInfo.bmiHeader.biSize = sizeof (BITMAPINFOHEADER);
    For any devs. interested as to whether there may be a bug, the call stack generated by Wine, showing the offsets from the base address of coregraphics.dll (loaded at 0x6b000000) is as follows, with the crash actaully occurring at '=> 1'
    Backtrace:
    =>1 0x6b262e97 in coregraphics (+0x262e97) (0x0033ed38)
    2 0x6b0f9da4 in coregraphics (+0xf9da4) (0x0033f31c)
    3 0x6b1e0fff in coregraphics (+0x1e0fff) (0x0033f4bc)
    4 0x6b1d19ee in coregraphics (+0x1d19ee) (0x0033f578)
    As I say, I'm not expecting any feedback on this - I'm just being neighbourly I also fully accept that I may be completely wrong in my assessment of the issue.
    Dell Inspiron   Other OS  

    There was an even earlier build than the two mentioned.
    Talk about "early revisions" I guess so, and it doesn't look like there will be a unified version tomorrow.
    I recall AYM had a note about video performance and in that instance, the build on the DVD was never than what was on the hard drive and within a week or so disk drives carried the "new, improved" video on disk as well.
    There may be other changes that go hand-in-hand other than build, too. Did they look at the Boot ROM and SMC Version of the systems?

  • Possible Tab Bug?

    The current bug: Adding an additional tab below another will cause the tab to looked messed up. The work around suggested was to create a page (with new tabs), publish it as a portlet underneath a main tab. Then you will visually see tabs underneath tabs.
    The new problem you get with this work around is your content underneath the sub-tab will not show up the first load. You have to click on another tab, then back to the previous tab to show the content.
    Another weird thing I ran across having to do with regions and published folders. I found that you cannot set a corrent percentage within regions when folders are added to regions.
    For instance; Under a tab, divid a region into two regions. The first region make 5% and the second 95%; now when you add your (folder) portlets underneath both regions you will see when viewing it, that it will show up 50% and 50%. If you take out the folder portlet on region 1, and add a application portlet; everything shows up fine.
    I have come across varies things like this, but I will start posting the errors and possible work arounds.

    I noticed this also. (in 3.0.6.7.2 on NT).
    What's funny about this is that this is exactly the same as a bug with sub-tabs in the EA release. Maybe the data structure of a sub-tab and a page in a tab is very similar...

  • Foreach syntax + generics, Possible compiler bug?

    I'm encountering an odd problem trying to use generics and the foreach (colon) syntax. The code in question:
    for (Iterator<String> it = col.getParameterNames().iterator(); it.hasNext();) {}
    for (String paramName : col.getParameterNames()) {}col is an instance of an inner class of the class whose method this code snippet is from, getParameterNames has the signature:
    public Set<String> getParameterNames();
    The first line, using the Iterator<String> explicitly, compiles fine. The second line, when present, raises the compiler error:
    found : java.lang.Object
    required: java.lang.String
    for (String paramName : col.getParameterNames()) {
    I cannot seem to reliably reproduce this situation in other (simpler) classes I write, but this one in particular seems to trigger it. Is it possible this is a compiler bug, or might there be something I'm doing incorrectly that I'm missing? Are my expectations about how the second line should work incorrect? It seems to in other circumstances...
    javac is 1.6.0_01. Any ideas?

    Here is a quick update, I'm more inclined to think of this as bad behavior now.
    This code compiles:
    public class Test {
    Vector<InnerTest> inners = new Vector<InnerTest>();
        public class InnerTest {        
           public Set<String> someSet() { return (new HashMap<String,String>()).keySet(); }
        public Test() {
            for (InnerTest it : inners) {
                for (String s : it.someSet()) {        
    }however, the following does not:
    public class Test {
    Vector<InnerTest> inners = new Vector<InnerTest>();
        public class InnerTest<P> {        
           public Set<String> someSet() { return (new HashMap<String,String>()).keySet(); }
        public Test() {
            for (InnerTest it : inners) {
                for (String s : it.someSet()) {        
    }Again, the problem might be with my expectations (I haven't gone through the specifications yet with this in mind), but I can't fathom how or why the unused parameter would make a difference in that method's tpye matching.

  • HT1212 Possible iPhone Hack.

    Hello, my sister thinks her black iPhone 4S has been hacked. She origianlly had a 7 digit passcode on the lock screen, and while it was in her hand the phone went black and automatically turned into a 4 digit passcode for the lock screen. She is quite worried. We would like to know how to get into the iPhone without having to wipe the entire phone blank. Please get back to us as soon as possible. Thank you.
    P.S. The iPhone is also with Virgin mobile.

    READ the article from which the question was posted.  It clearly details how to deal with the situation.
    Passcodes do not magically change.
    Unless the iPhone has been jailbroken it cannot be hacked.

  • Possible iphone 5 power shortage

    When I go to charge my iPhone five it continuously connects and disconnects from the charger (on its own) and when I plugged it into my MacBook it will not allow it, saying that the USB is using too much power. Any ideas what is going on?

    This is a defect on iPhone 5 power button that wears out in about 13-14 months of usage just after you go out of warranty. Apple is aware of this issue but chooses not to accept this as a defect. I asked the Genius bar guy and they told me this is a common case recently and costs $269 to replace your phone. There is no repair option. I am very mad and believe Apple needs to take action or will lose their customers. All iPhone 5 owners that I know started having this problem in the month of 13 -14.
    I believe if the numbers go high, Apple may start a recall program. Please encourage anyone with this problem to post here. $700 phone should not wear out this soon. Apparently the part is defective on almost all iPhone 5 devices.

    WTH? Seriously?!?! Same issue here: Purchased iPhone 5 in Sep 2012. Power button went wonky shortly after recent iOS 7.0.4 install. Figured power button issue was a software bug. Been a loyal Apple customer (2009 Mac Pro, and several iPhones) since 2009. I will be looking elsewhere - at DIY water-cooled PC/Linux, and Android phablets - come August 2014. Thanks for the heads up!
