Problem with the sleep button

Hello, my iphone only works when its plugged into the my computer. The instant I unplug it the screen goes black and flashes the apple logo for about 5 seconds on and off nonstop. It did this for the whole night and the battery was almost drained when I plugged it in the next morning after being fully charged. I believe the problem is with my sleep button, I think the phone thinks the button is pressed in all the time, but I can't be sure. The button still feels just fine, but I can't think of any reason why it would suddenly do this, I haven't downloaded anything onto it for weeks now, and I haven't ever dropped it. Any help on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

Call 1800-MY-IPHONE and they can send you a box (free) to send it back to them (free) and if it is covered they will replace for free and send back. If you have an old phone around that accepts SIM cards you can use your SIM from your iPhone (they will tell you to take it out) in your old phone while your iPhone is out to them. Then put back in when you get phone back.

I anyone having problems with the Sleep/Wake Button?? it doesn't do anything

I anyone having problems with the Sleep/Wake Button??
It doesn't do anything

if you press it and it does nothing, it may be broken. did you drop it?
try pressing and holding the top power button and round home button on the front for 6-8 seconds and you should see an apple appear.. if you do see the apple, the power button worked.

Is anyone having a problem with the home button on a 6?

when I first got my iPhone 6, the home button was just like my other iPhones have been, my iPad, my sons iPhone 6, etc. when you pushed it, you can feel it move and you feel a little dull clck. Now the the home button on my iPhone 6 has no movement or click. It still functions, but I'm worried it is on its way to failing and if I wait to address the issue until it completely fails, then it will be out of warranty. Has anyone else experienced any problems with the home button?

If you believe that your device has a defect or malfunction, contact Apple now. This forum is not for taking polls. Contact Apple for support options.

Do you have problems with your sleep button on white iPhone 5?

I got my iPhone 5 on Nov. 2nd. Since then Im in love with it. But in January something started to bug me. It was the sleep button which wasn't that much responsive. Even though i am holding on to it it was not functioning. My phone could't get turned off, i had to aait for my battery to die. So i got it changed. I waited for 25 days to get my new phone. Now, im with the new one from yesterday. But to tell you the truth, it feels like January and i feel like this sleep button will go bad soon. And the phone is just a day old! I haven't ever dropped it. Its always in its bumper case with protector stickers onfront and back and i always take good care of my devices

the problem is that I have already done that once. I waited for the current phone i have for 25 days to get it changed. I had to use my old 3GS meanwhile. I dont want to do it again. Also, the people from the store would probably think that I do something on purpose and my sleep button is fine, it's just me who breaks it.
Right now, to be exact - it's not broken yet. But I can tell that it's really soft compared to my girlfriend's Black iPhone 5 which is kind of hard to press while mine is kind of hollow. Her's is kind of projecting. This is what happened with my sleed button right before I went to the store for the first time because first it wasn't that bad but I knew something was wrong, then **** happened. So yeah.

Problems with the home button and generally freezing and shutting down often.

I have had this iPad 2 for around 3 months. After about a month I noticed that I was having to press the home button multiple times in order to get it to respond. It is now at a stage where I have to press it as many as 12-13 times. It's won't do this every time but all day for maybe 3 out of 5 days the other times it works fine.
As well as this I have also had issues with the Internet shutting down, Skype going crazy, picture albums popping up and then vanishing and so on. I'm not a computer wiz but I would describe it as going crazy two or three times a day.
While I was in a shopping centre about a week ago I asked about the problems in an apple store. The man was very helpful and asked if I had it on me so he could look at it. Unfortunately I didn't be he said I could bring it back whenever I like and it would take around 30 mins for someone to check it out. He said most Likley they would just give me a new one and that would be that. So of course happy that it could be sorted I went home. Today I decided to drive the nearly two hours down to Brisbane after having a nightmare time trying to Skype my friend this morrning. I hot to the store and asked if it could be looked at only to be told I need an appointment. I showed the card that I had been given and explained what I had being told. To cut a long story short he agreed that I had been told that but said the assistant clearly didn't know what he was on about and that I should come back. I offered to wait but dispute the shop being more full of staff watching movies and downloading songs then actual customers I was basically denied any sort of help and told to call the office to arrange an appointment.
Sorry to rant! I just thought that apple were renowned for good service? 5 hours later I'm home with the same issues.
If anyone has had similar problem with the device or even customer service I would be intrested.
Regards,

Me too! I had many bugs and returned my phone for a brand new one that did this the first time it was turned on at the Apple store. I was told it is a "software issue" and to "reboot the phone" if it continued to happen. It happens almost every time I try to use my phone. I've rebooted three times in a row some days. Nothing really seems to help. I keep waiting for an update.

Problem with the back button in the Alv ouput

i have refresh button in output of my alv report when i click on this it is getting refreshed ,now the problem is with the back button after refresh whn i click on back button it is not going to selection screen , i have to click the back button thrice to come out to the selection screen ,if have refreshed the ouput screen twice .
if i dont refresh the back button is working fine , So i have used "call to selection screen 1000" it coming to selection screen without any problem but in selection screen on clicking on back button it is again going back to output screen ,So please suggest what has to be done here .

Hi Brahmananda,
Please try to understand the flow of program and the screen navigation
the click of BACK button triggers PAI and (to the best of my knowledge) you might have called the ALV screen number without any checks ( may be) so it is again taking to the ALV.
try using
in PAI
module exit at exit-command
in program
module exit
case ok_code
when 'BACK'.
LEAVE PROGRAM ( or any thing that you want it to be )
endcase
endmodule
regards

HT1766 anyone having problems with the start button

Is anyone having problems with the Iphone 4 start button not working

What is the start button?
Do you mean the on/off button, or the Home button?
If either one is not working at all, more than likely there is a hardware problem.

Is anyone else having problems with the power button?

Someone at work also said they were having a problem with their power button not working? Is it hardware or maybe software?

I had the same problem with my new macbook air. It was scratchy and annoying so I updated the speaker's software and now it's perfect.

hope it solves your problem too.

I think they mean the home button. Have you dropped your iPod or possibly have gotten crumbs/sand or something small into the button? This happened with my friend's iPod nano last year. She went to the beach and got sand stuck in the center button and now she has to press that button 4 or 5 times to get it to work. Unfortunatley I don't know how to fix this, but I hope this helped a little bit.
Good luck!

Problems with the "INSERT" button.

Hi,
I have a problem in my homework. I am required to do the following:
'original numbers' array contains zeros. Let LabVIEW fill an array "original numbers" by random integers from 10 to 90 at a rate 1 number/0.5 seconds by replacing each zero at a time from top to bottom. (DONE)
user fills in 10numbers in an array 'numbers to be probably inserted'. Then the user decides if he needs to change a generated number that he doesn't like by changing the 'Insert' array.
Then he presses the INSERT button and a resulting array would appear containing the elements the user changed......
This video might clarify:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDXo2ABqNM4
The problem I am facing is the INSERT button. In the video, the moment it is switched the program will continue to the last part.
I am attaching the vi. I think there are no logical mistakes in the program except the INSERT case structure.
Thank You.
P.S. The version is LabView2010 ; I'm getting error trying to save to previous versions sorry.
Solved!

What does it mean to disable auto-indexing?
I didn't understand why we used the reshape array palette. What are the dimensions of the input and the output? Very nice way how you made a length 10 zero array. (i'll use that when i figure the solution of the dimension problem.)
Did you use the 100ms wait in order not to affect computer performance or for other reason?
How where you able to connect the 'changed numbers' array to Not Equal Palette?
From where did you get the "replace" button? I think my "insert" button does the oppositeof what it should do.
Your code sitll has major flaws. Your questions are very basic and I recommend to do a few tutorials.
If you wire an array across a loop boundary, the tunnel can have two modes (plain (solid square) or autoindexing (contains a small set of square brackets)). In your case, you are autoidenxing the 1D array, creating a 2D array (double-line) at the output of the first loop. You are generating 10x too much data! (create an 10x10 indicator on the 2D array to see what you are actually doing!). You can right-click a tunnel to switch between indexing modes. A plain tunnel transports the array data unchanged. An autoindexing output tunnel, creates an array with a higher dimension, in your case a 2D array from a 1D array with one new row per iteration. If you autoiindex a scalar, you get a 1D array with one element per iteration. An autoidexing input tunnel does the reverse. If you wire a 1D array to a FOR loop using autoindexing, you get a scalar per iteration and the FOR loop will stop once the array runs out of elements. Is it equavalent (with some important differences) to wiring without autoidenxing, then using "index array" with the index wired to [i] as you currently do. In your case, you chould get the 1D array from the shift register of the first loop, it has all the information(!), and disable autoidexing at the boundary of the second loop and the outcome would be the same, except you use only 10% of the memory.
Once you are autoidexing at a loop boundary, a FOR loop iteration count will be determined by the size of the smallest autoindexing array. This would be a problem if you later want to change the code to operate on e.g. 20 elements, because the other two arrays in my code would force the loop to stop after 10 iterations. "Resize array" can be used for padding/trimming arrays and in this case we are forcing them to be the lenght on the main array to ensure that the FOR loop does not stop prematurely. In your case, the replace and switch arrays are empty by default, so the loop would not spin at all unless you would enter some values. "resize array" brings them up to size.
Yes, you need a small wait either inside the other case or elsewhere in the while loop. Without a wait, the basically empty loop will spin millions of times per second, consuming all CPU in the process while doing nothing. No human can click a button with that kind of time resolution, so a 100ms wait is not noticeable, but will drop the CPU use to negligible levels. Your computer has dozens of processes running at any given time. Imagine how well it would work if all programs would consume all CPU they can possibly get?
I am comparing two arrays, and the output will be a boolean array. You are only comparing two scalars and you won't get an array. You also don't need the "AND", because if the values are different it has to be true anyway. In your case you would need to carry a boolean array similar to the number array, replacing elements as you go.
A button is a button is a button. There should be no difference. You can change the label, boolean text, default value, and mechanical action to match your requirements.

I have done so to initialize the arrays full of zeros yet the way you did it way easier. How did u initialize them to zeros?(from where did you get the palettes? I have attached a picture clarifing my question.
These are local variables. You don't need to find them in the palettes. Simply right-click a terminal and "create local variable". Voila!
(Local variables can be used to read from an indicator or write to a control. However, because they break dataflow, you can generate dangerous race conditions. They also force extra data copies in memory. Don't use them like "variables" in text based code. Except for initialization and user interface interactions, they should be used sparingly and are rarely needed. In principle, my code has a theoretical race condition because the order of operations is not determined between the three independent code sections. For example if the initializion would happen after the second loop executes, you would get an unexpected result. It will never happen in this particular case, but in other scenarios it could be a problem.)

A problem with the hold button

I have had a fully functional ipod Nano 3g since I bought it. The other day the hold button did something weird. It usually clicks left or right easilly. It clicks right or in "hold" position now, but I have to push hard to slide it about 3/4 to the left or "unlock" side. It can be held or unheld but i was just getting annoyed with pushing hard. Please help

me too i have the same problem but no one answer

Problem with the sleep function

I just purchased my macbook pro 15 inch in July - the first MAC I had. I got a MAC because of all the problems with my pc's in the past and everyone telling me how wonderful they are. Well.... I have had it in the shop 2 times already and ready for a 3rd time. When I put the computer to sleep it is random if it will wake up. I can open the lid and the keyboard will be lit but the screen will be black and nothing will bring the screen up. Another issue is that sometimes when I open the screen the keys will be lighted but after a few seconds the computer will shut off itself. The last time it was in the shop they replaced everything except the hard drive and it would have cost $1600 if it wasn't under warranty. That just isn't acceptable to me. Now it is doing the same things again - again it is random, sometimes it works fine. I have to make another appt now with the genius bar but anyone know why this could be happening? I'm thinking of asking for a new computer - maybe this one is a lemon? Sugestions?

Apple has no published, hard and fast policy on replacing Macs that can't be repaired satisfactorily. Anecdotally, it seems that after at least three or four failed attempts to repair the same problem in a machine, Apple considers replacing it. But it's all decided case-by-case and is highly discretionary.

Lightroom problem with the exit button...

In Lightroom, the window got redesigned in such a way that you can't move the cursor to the absolute top right corner and click to exit like you can in standard windows--you have to aim with the cursor on the exit button which is annoying.

Just stumbled over the thread.
Interesting how these discussions evolve.
Someone points out an unexpected behavior. LR doesn't act conform with every other app on pc. Instead of accept this, people start argueing whether it is necessary to close apps in general, bla bla.
Why not admit: Yes there is a flaw. There are workarounds, so it's not a deal breaker. We would like to have this addressed by adobe in the next version. It doesn't matter if there are users that never use the cross to close apps. It doesn't matter if there are other ways to close.
Why change standards? This may be unintentionally here but there are other examples.
The crop tool in LR.
The Keyboard shortcuts. In every Adobe Application. I never understood, why there are no 2 adobe-apps that share the same shortcuts. Even standards like ctrl-ins/shift-ins does not work in for exyample in indesign. Drives me nuts. No, I don't want to use use ctrl-c/ctrl-v. I use my mouse with my left hand.
Copy settings in LR. Ctrl-Shift-C. No other app uses this.
Why change established standards??

I followed the instructions I read in a post to shutdown IPad holding the sleep button down until red arrow appeared. The slide arrow and then restart with the sleep button. Well, now nothing happens when I press this button to start IPad.

I have two problems. The most pressing is that I was following a suggestion to restart my IPad by turning off, sliding red arrow, wait for Apple symbol. I now see the apple but alson the little marks that go around when it is working but they are frozen and my home key does not do anything and no icons appear.

Thank you so much. This worked perfectly and you taught me something I didn't know. The other question I had was that I am in a home with wifi and my ipad connected to the internet without a problem. We then left for about a week and when I returned to this house I no longer can connect to the internet. I'm not sure if it is okay to ask you another question or must I post the question. Also, I am not sure how to five you the 10 points for the correct answer. I'm very new at this process. Thank you so much for helping me.
