Proximity Sensor Issue, But It's Not The Proximity Sensor...

So, has anyone had issues with apps that use the proximity sensor (like this one, for example: http://appshopper.com/utilities/touch-lcd-designer-speaking-clock)?
I noticed, the bright light of the sun seems to be messing it up, and was wondering if anyone else was having proximity sensor issues, without it actually being the proximity sensor (where it seems to think something is in front of it, when it is not).
When you watch the videos, please put your volume on mute, as there are outside, natural sounds and white noise, that will make you go deaf, if you have the volume on loud. The first video needs the sound on, but low.

its not that noone cares its that anything related to the proximity sensor has been beaten to death and frankly there is issues with it that may or may not be software related could be hardware related apple said they fixed it and they didnt fix it

  • How can I get apple to warranty my iPod touch 4th gen? It has always had issues and seems to be a lost cause. Will not connect to wi-fi. It also has cracked screen, but that is not the issue.

    It has a cracked screen also but that is not the issue. I am willing to live with the screen

    Unfortunately, ANY signs of 'neglect or damage' automatically become the cause of any issues you're having. As in it doesn't matter if your screen was flickering before it was dropped, when they see the dent or cracked screen, that screen flicker was caused by the drop. Because they  have no way to know if you are telling the truth (it's nothing personal, they just literally dont' know) so any signs of damage become the reason for your issue. The only way out of that is if you had taken in your iPad and, even if you didn't get it replaced, an apple employee can have documented that yes, that issue existed before the drop.
    It's not fun, I know, but that's just how it is. Any signs of 'neglect or damage' and that 'neglect or damage' is the cause of your issues.

    It seems I have solved my own problem . . . well hopefully !!   ;-)
    I was using a 'non' Apple cable. When I swithced to using the stock cable that came with my iPhone, iTunes can now see that I have a 'Device' and identifies it correctly as my iPhone.
    Hopefully this may help others . . . ?

  • I purchased Microsoft Office for Mac through the Apple website.. I have downloaded all from the disk into my Mac, no problem with all the other Word etc, but Outlook is asking for the key number: I have put it in but its obviously not the right one...????

    I purchased Microsoft Office for Mac through the Apple website.. I have downloaded all from the disk into my Mac, no problem with all the other Word etc, but Outlook is asking for the key number: I have put it in but its obviously not the right one...???? In the box with the disk came the product key, have put it in and it doesnt work. Please help..x

    unfortunately - you can not.  you can't even buy outlook by itself at microsoft's own website.
    does it have to be outlook?  maybe you can get away with using something else that's outlook compatible.
    how about trying Thunderbird for Mac OS?
    or maybe you can call apple and let them know you purchase the wrong version - they might give you a break and just pay the difference for the home and business version.
    good luck

  • HT204053 i photo will not update it says it was either bought under another apple ID or cancelled but this is not the cas

    i photo will not update it says it was either bought under another apple ID or cancelled but this is not the case, what do i do?

    Which iPhoto version and MacOS X version did you update from? Did you previously have iPhoto 9.5.1 and Mavericks installed or earlier versions?
    Did you use a different Apple ID when you set up the Mac? If iPhoto came preinstalled, it will be bound to the apple ID you first used, when you set up your  Mac.

  • I re-installed Mountain Lion from a USB stick, and now my Apps can't be downloaded.  The App store indicates that the Apps are already installed, but that is not the case. Now what :)

    I re-installed Mountain Lion from scratch of a USB stick, and now my Apps in the App store ca not be installed, the App store indicates that they are already installed, but that is not the case.  Now what?

    Ok, this is somewhat of a better work around I've found:
    Starting in the Australian iTunes store, I go through the process of signing into the UK iTunes store up until the point it asks for my credit card information.
    I then click the 'X' in the top left of iTunes to exit the store.
    Now when I click on my Apps Updates button it shows me what UK Apps I have that are available to update.
    You can't download these as at this point I've changed the store I'm viewing, but haven't officially switched accounts. Not to worry.
    I write down the names of the UK Apps to update.
    Then, use the 'search store' field in the top right of iTunes to search for one of the Apps.
    Once you've found it, click to buy it / download it.
    iTunes recognises that the App is already in your account and downloads it again for free….
    … now I'm HOPING that that App is now fully within my Australian account… unfortunately only time will tell once there is a new update for it.
    I'll let you know.

  • My iPhoto will not work with Yosemite, and it says that it was purchased under a different account, but that's not the case.  Any ideas why I cannot update iPhoto?

    my iPhoto will not work with Yosemite, and it says that it was purchased under a different account, but that's not the case.  Any ideas why I cannot update iPhoto?

    How did you buy iPhoto? Did it come preinstalled on your computer with Lion or later, or did it come with Snowleopard on system installer disks?
    Which version of iPhoto?
    If you have a version of iPhoto '11 and it is showing on the Purchased tab of the App Store, with your Apple ID, then delete iPhoto from the Applications folder  (don't empty the Trash) and download iPhoto again from the Purchased tab.
    If that does not work, contact The App Store Support  from the Quick Links on the AppStore main page.
    Only apple Support can fix problems with apple ID.

  • Thought it was Prox Sensor issue, but now I dont think it is

    I thought I was having intermittant issues with the proximity sensor...every now and then I would mute someone or start dialing random numbers while on a call. Today while I was on a call it happend again, but I now am pretty sure I know what trigers it...at least for me. While on the call I got the chime that I had a new e-mail and then I started dialing random numbers and muted the call...I havent had a chance to experiment any more today, but does a new email or text notification "wake-up" the screen while in a call? If thats the case..hey apple..disable that!

    I'm pretty sure that's not the case.

  • LAN goes down in the moment I change the gateway to Core, but it is not the gateway for users.

    Hi,
    I have my DHCP configured in order to deliver the next default gateway, the 52.44.72.254.and all others devices have the same default gateway, the 52.44.72.254.
    The Core switch with IP 52.44.72.200 has next route: ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 52.44.72.254
    The issues comes when I change it to Core switch, everything goes down.
    I am adding a new network, we will replace the 52. In the moment we enable the Core in the 10 network with a new default gateway, everything goes down. 
    Everything should work as today because the VLAN 1, where the 52 is working, keeps as today. We change only the IP for Core sw.
    When the network is down, I tracerted the external routes, and all traffic stops in the Core sw.
    It looks like If it was routing, but it is not.
    Do you have any idea what could happend?
    FYI:
    interface Vlan1
     description VLAN DATOS
     ip address 52.44.66.254 255.255.255.128 secondary
     ip address 52.44.72.200 255.255.255.0
     no ip redirects
     ip local-proxy-arp
     ip route-cache same-interface
    interface Vlan95
     ip address 10.106.128.2 255.255.255.0
    interface Vlan300
     ip address 10.106.130.1 255.255.254.0
    interface Vlan301
     ip address 10.106.134.1 255.255.255.0
    Thanks by your help, best regards. Luis.

    I dont understand your configuration. What is your next hop device thats defined in your default route? A router? Are you trunking to the router? Is IP routing enabled? More of the configuration of this core and next hop device will be helpful.

  • Links open FF, but very often not the actual URL!

    Even in safe mode, clicking a link outside of FF will switch to the FF window but will often NOT open the URL until I have repeatedly tried clicking the link. This may be a little unclear so I made a 30 second movie in which I alt-tab back to the link over and over again until FF finally opens the goes to the link. Can anyone help with this?
    Thanks!!...and here is the little vid. FF is in safe-mode in the video.

    Weird. Assuming that the default browser is set to Firefox and you are using Mavericks, I wonder if there is an issue with how the application is detected.
    For example, there is an entry in about:config that handles links from third party applications. However by default it is off.
