Power buton hard all of the sudden

I got this iphone 4 not more than 4 months ago, now all of the sudden the Power button is so hard to use and I have to press hard in order to have it work.
I have taken care of this phone like if it was my baby.
Yesterday a new problem comes to the scene, The battery was all drained in standby mode yesterday, nothing new was installed to the phone, no applications were open in the background. I thought it was some kind of error, so when I got home recharged it, however today I got the same issue, the battery was drained.
I called Apple to find out about warranty for my high priced device, and all I get is "How do you plan to pay for your apple care" I mean this is ridiculous, on top of Apple trying controlling what you want to do with your phone "Because you paid for it....It was not a gift from them" NOW IF THE damned phone is broken I have to pay also to talk to one of them so that they tell me about warranty for it.
Talking about Monopoly from Microsoft, these people is worst, at least Microsoft responds to their customers and don't charge them for information or technical support about warranty.
I was happy with this phone but I am not going to allow a dirty company to take advantage and money away from me just to honor warranty for such a high priced device.
I have been recommending this phone to people but not anymore, I will share my bad experience with everybody and recommend getting a different phone from a company that really cares about their customers and honor their warranty.

take your phone into a genius at a apple store and get it replaced its as simple as that

PPC all of the sudden will not file share, what can I do?

I have a PPC G5 OSX 10.4.11 all of the sudden I went to connect to my MacBook Pro with file sharing and I can not. I can see the MacBook in my network area and when I hit connect it lets me put in my password and then I try to click on the folder to mount it and my finder freezes. I relaunch the finder but still get the spinning wheel of death over the network window. I have looked online and all the forums say I have to reinstall my OS but there has to be another way, can anyone help? I also try to open my "file share" option on my PPC but it will not do that either. Thanks in advance.

All of the sudden my iPad (1st generation) isn't being recognized by

All of the sudden my iPad isn't being recognized by any of my PC's. The PC's are working fine (they are still recognizing our iPhones) and I'm pretty sure that the problem is with my iPad. Please help!!!

Having the same issue.
iPad 1 updated to 5.0.1 was working fine. Suddenly will not recognize when it has a USB cable plugged into it. Almost as though the cable isn't even plugged in. I left it plugged in all day and it's charge increased by about only 5%
Tried different comptuers and the external power supply - same results. The iPad doesn't even recognize the cable is plugged in.. no lightning bolt symbol or anything.

Internet stopped working all of the sudden

I have a WRT54G router connected to my iMac and Mac Book, everything was working fine for the past three months, and all of the sudden no Internet either wirelessly or from a port.
If I connect my PC directly to the modem I can connect to the Internet. The Internet and port lights are turned on on the router. I can login to the router, but when I check the IP address it just shows 0.0.0.0, tried doing a DHCP release\ renew on the router, but nothing. Also, cannot ping any sites from the router.
These are the toubleshooting steps I've taken to try to fix the problem:
Restarted both the modem and the router.
Tried using a different ethernet cable from the modem to the router.
Reset the router.
Upgraded to latest firmware.
I have Comcast cable as my ISP. Has anyone seen this before? Thought I'd get some feedback before I call support.
Thanks.

1)access the router web ui
2)go to the Mac Address Clone subtab , enable it and click "Clone" . Save the settings
3)do a power cycle
4)check whether the router gets an internet ip add now ..

My camera all of the sudden stopped working. What is going on?

My camera all of the sudden stopped working. What is going on?

if by camera you are referring to iSight, here is how to troubleshoot:
Built-in iSight cameras
These steps are for iSight cameras that are built into a computer, such as the iMac G5 (iSight) or later, the MacBook, or MacBook Pro.
See if the issue is application-specific.
Try another application (iSight works with applications like iChat, PhotoBooth, and iMovie HD 6) to see if the iSight camera exhibits the same behavior in all applications. If it only happens in one application, try reinstalling that application.
See if the issue is user-specific.
Test your iSight camera in another user account. If the issue only occurs in one user, the issue would be isolated to user settings.
Find out if the computer recognizes the iSight
Check System Profiler (in the Utilities folder, inside the Applications folder). Under the USB header, check to see if the iSight camera is detected.
Reset SMC or PMU
Reset your computer's SMC or PMU, and then check System Profiler again. (SMC reset instructions for iMac G5 (iSight), Intel-based iMacs; PMU reset instructions for MacBook and MacBook Pro.)
If your built-in iSight camera is still not behaving correctly after trying all these steps, you may need to contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.
Standalone iSight cameras
The instructions in this section apply if you have an iSight camera that is not built into your computer but attaches to the computer via a FireWire cable.
Make sure the cable is completely plugged in.
Incomplete cable connections are the most common cause of hardware problems. Follow these quick instructions to make sure your iSight cable is completely plugged in.If your iSight camera continues to function improperly, continue on to the steps below.
Turn the computer and the camera off.
Unplug the FireWire cable from your computer and the camera.
Wait a few seconds.
Firmly, without forcing, plug the cable back in to the camera and the computer.
Caution: FireWire ports are keyed so the FireWire cable can only be inserted one way. Make sure you are inserting the FireWire cable into the FireWire port in the correct orientation.
Restart your computer.
If the green light on top of the iSight is not lit, turn on the camera by gently twisting the lens.
Launch iChat AV.
See if a different FireWire port works.
Some Macs have more than one FireWire port. If your computer has another FireWire port, disconnect the iSight camera from the current port and plug it into the other one. Restart your computer and test the camera before continuing to step three.
Check to see if other FireWire devices work.
If you have another FireWire device, such as a video camera or an external hard drive, try plugging it into your computer to see if it works. If your other FireWire devices work, this means that your computer's FireWire port is working correctly. If your other FireWire devices don't work, there may be an issue with your computer. Contact an Apple Authorized Service Provider for assistance.
Determine if there is an incompatibility with another FireWire device.
If more than one FireWire device is connected to your computer, there may be an incompatibility between two of the devices. To rule this out, disconnect all other FireWire devices from the computer, including external hard drives, CD/DVD drives, other cameras, and FireWire-based networking equipment, such as hubs and repeaters. If your iSight camera works normally when you remove other FireWire devices, plug them back in one at a time to isolate the cause of the issue.
Make sure the FireWire cable is good.
Follow these steps to test the FireWire cable:Information about your iSight camera should appear in the FireWire Information field. If you see the iSight camera in this field, your cable is good. Once you've confirmed the cable you are using is good, use it to plug your iSight into your computer. If the green light on the top of the camera does not light up immediately (within a second), there may be an issue with your camera. Fill out an iSight Service Request to have your camera repaired.
Important: Do not send your iSight camera for repair until you have tried each troubleshooting step.If the FireWire cable that came with your iSight camera didn't work, try another FireWire cable that you know works. If this cable works, there is an issue with your iSight's FireWire cable. If your camera is in the limited warranty period, fill out an iSight Service Request to receive a replacement cable.
Choose About This Mac from the Apple menu.
Click More Info. System Profiler opens.
In the System Profiler window, click on the Devices and Volumes option.
Click the disclosure triangle, if necessary, in the FireWire Information area.
Check to see if there is an issue with your camera.
If information about your iSight appears in System Profiler but the camera still does not work, follow these steps:Video from your iSight camera should appear on screen. If the screen is blue or black, there may be an issue with the camera. Fill out an iSight Service Request to have your camera repaired.
Open iChat AV.
Choose Preferences from the iChat menu.
Click the Video button.
Twist the front of the iSight camera lens to open the iris barrier. The green light on the camera turns on when the iris barrier is open.

Help. I have been printing from my iPad to my home wireless printer for months. All of the sudden it says. No printer found. Shut off the printer and restarted. Still no luck.

I have been printing from my ipadto my wireless printer for months. All of the sudden says no printer found. Restart eyed printer still no luck. Help

Have you tried to reboot your iPad? Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try agian.
Also, try power cycling your router. Meaning, unplug it, count to 10, then plug it back in. Let it reboot and see if that helps.

TS1741 my ipad all of the sudden stopped charging

My Ipad all of the sudden stopped charging. It wont even charge or be recognized from my laptop on itunes. Please help. Is my battery dead?

Three possibilities - bad cable, charger or the iPad/battery. Since iPad not recognized, I suspect the cable. Make sure the cable is fully connected.
Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
And this - Unplug the charger from the iPad and then replug. May resume charging.
Or - Recalibrate the battery. See link below.
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) 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
http://www.macblend.com/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.

Printer Paused Errors all of the sudden

I network to a printer both at home and at work and have had no problems whatsoever until today -- and now I have problems with both. The method of connecting is completely different: at work I connect to the network via an ethernet cable, as does the printer (i.e. it is a true network printer). At home, the printer is connected to an old eMac which shares its connection over the WiFi network. Oh yes, two utterly different printers - A Dell 5200 at work and an old Epson Stylus CX3200 at home.
My problem is that the printer immediately pauses when a print job is set. If I restart the printer and the job, I get a client-error-not-possible message. I try again and I get an error message from CUPS: usr/libexec/cups/backend/mdns failed
I have reset the printing system multiple times and tried to add the (home) printer again (via bonjour) but get the same error results. I will try tomorrow at work but am expecting the same frustrations.
My wife can still print fine at home from her old iBook on 10.4.11 over the network.
Why would I have problems all of the sudden like this? The only thing I changed is, like an obedient little monkey, I installed the newest Security Update that Software Update told me to install. Could this have screwed something up? Any help would be much appreciated, this is very frustrating.

Well, I've figured out a provisional work around, at least at home (will try the office printer in a bit). If, instead of connecting via bonjour as I did until yesterday, I connect via Line Printer Daemon and type in the afp of the desktop to which the printer is connected, it does work. But I have to choose "Generic Postscript Printer" under driver -- I am guessing that this is because the Power PPC (running 10.4) to which the printer is connected does not recognize the Gutenprint driver for the Stylus CX3200 which would be the natural choice from my MacBook. (If I select this driver and print, my computer thinks the printing has been successful, but nothing actually prints.)
By contrast, on Bonjour, it automatically selects the older, PPC driver that is already installed on the desktop computer connected to the printer. But this driver is apparently not an option from my MacBook using 10.5.6 when using LPD.
At any rate, this seems to work for now, but I still suspect that the Software Updates I installed yesterday screwed up the way in which my computer communicates with other devices on a local network: I have also had intermittent "connection failures" when I try to connect to a shared device via its icon on the sidebar in Finder.
I would still be very grateful for any thoughts on why I was getting the "Printer Paused" error (and, of course, I still don't know for certain that I'm going to be able to figure out a similar work around for my office network printer).

My phone all of the sudden is off and will not turn back on. It's a brand new iPhone 5

My phone all of the sudden is off and won't turn back on.

Hi Ashley0607,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your iPhone 5.
Follow the steps below if the iPhone is not powering on:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!
- Judy

Apps open and close all of the sudden

Ok, my iphone was working fine until 10 minutes ago. I had no issues with it and all of the sudden, I tried opening up an app and all it will do is just open and close all of the sudden. And it's with ALL apps! I tried doing everything there is to do to solve the issue and nothing. I even followed someone's post about downloading a free app and nothing. I have tried restoring it, doing the sleep/wake and home button till apple logo comes up, and turning it off normally, and even re-syncing to computer and NOTHING! What should I do?

Download another free App - doesn't matter which one.
Sync and then hold down the Home and top button until the phone switches of completely.
Restart the phone and you should be fine - you did nothing wrong but its a sign of a bad sync.
You're not the first so enjoy !

Desktop Software Stopped working all of the sudden..

All of the sudden I got a windows message saying "Blackberry Desktop Software has stopped working" (A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.) I un-installed and re-installed the program and the same thing continues to happen. I have no idea what's going on. Has this ever happened to anyone else? Can someone help me out?

It happens to me too just now. I just had my laptop upgraded. before, i have it installed successfully without any problems encountered. in fact I was able to use it early yesterday before i upgraded my laptop. just now, when im trying to install the pc software, while installig it, it just gives a notification that it stopped. but later will show that i have successfully installed. but once you click to open the icon, it shows "Blackberry Desktop Software has stopped working". same with you i uninstall reinstall for 4x now, but still it isnt working.I even though it might be with my net connection, but it is not. I hope someone could help us.

my iWork (pages and keynote) are not communicating with the iCloud. I haven't changed anything and all of the sudden there is no sync happening. My iCloud account is fine as i can create documents on my iPad and they appear on iCloud. However, when i change documents on my mac (documents that are supposed to be in the iCloud), the changes do not sync with my other devices nor with iCloud. Even when i create new documents on my mac and save them to iCloud, all seems okay and i can access them from my mac, however they do not show up in the iCloud and i can't access them with my other devices.
