SCR24 - closing the cover not recognized

I've had my Z3 with the SCR24 style cover. The last few days the smart window doesn't work, ie the phone always treats the cover as open. I've tried reinstalling the app but that didn't help.
Solved!

hi Velgar,
Aside from doing the re-installation of the app, how about try to clear the app data from settings then restart the phone and test again.

I closed the cover on my IPad with a draft email open. Now I can only edit the email but cancel and send are grey and nothing else in email seems to work. What to do?

I closed my iPad cover with a draft email open. When I reopened the cover, the cancel and send buttons are grey and all I can do is edit the email. The email app seems frozen. What do I do?

Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work (or if you can't get to the homescreen) then do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

[CLOSED] CD/DVDs not recognized (hal-less KDE)

Hello everyone,
after the last system upgrade last week CDs and DVDs are not recognized when I insert them in the drive.
I'm running hal-less KDE 4.6 with udisks installed.
I removed hal after the upgrade, however the drive could not recognize the disks even when hal was running.
I searched the forum but haven't found any discussion reporting the very same problem.
Can anyone help me to debug this?
Thanks!

I had the same / similar problem. Just that given that I build my own kernel I thought this was what was causing it. That's why I rebuilded the kernel and enabled ISO and UDF modules in Filesystems. If you're using the standard kernel I have no idea what could be the problem.

Anyone have a solution for the ubiquitous problem of the printer not recognizing a new HP cartridge?

I have seen other posts about the HP printers not recognizing that a new HP cartridge has been put in. At the price of the cartridges, this is a most irritating problem, and apparently a weak spot with the HP printers. Mine is not heavily used at all and this is the 2nd time it would not recognize. Thanks.

Please read this post then provide some details. What printer model? What operating system? Are there any error messages on the printer or computer screen?

Closing the cover of my macbook

Hello,
i have pluged in an external display to the macbook (with mini-dvi to dvi adapter). Now i want to close the cover of the macbook, without going into the sleep modus. I want to go on working with the external display.
How can i do that?
Thanks for your help.
Achim

I would disagree. Its an Apple-given technique. The kind of temperatures that your Macbook gets upto during normal use shouldnt cause any harm. The majority of cooling actually takes place under the MB via fans etc, there is very little ventilation on the 'keyboard surface'. I have imported 10 CD's in the past 30 mins or so, putting the CPU under a fairly heavy strain, enough to make the fans run, and the surface of my MB is warm to the touch, no more. Each to their own however, but it wouldnt concern me to run my MB in such a manner for a reasonable length of time (many many people do so.)

How to lock iphone 5 with closing the cover

how do i lock my iphone 5 when i close the cover ipad can do it but iphone can

There is no cover that will lock the iPhone. The only way to lock it is to press the button at the top, or wait until it locks automatically.

Firefox quits when closing the cover of my MacBook Pro (putting it to sleep)

Self-explanatory (see title). I have a mid-2010 MacBook Pro, running Mac OS X Lion (10.7.3). Whenever I close the lid to put the MacBook Pro to sleep, Firefox quits. I don't think it crashes or hangs; when I open the lid later, Firefox is just not running, and must be re-opened.
This is incredibly annoying, because I have to connect through a proxy server at work, and this results in me having to Restore Previous Session, re-authenticate, and then wait for 10-25 tabs (my To-Do list) to be reloaded. Agonizing. Help?

Hi,
When I look at your system details, it does have a crash ID on it (bp-0bffc60f-9713-426c-b7b3-214962120301), so you might find some help in the article about crashes, where it describes starting Firefox in safe mode and then seeing if the problem still happens:
[[Firefox crashes]]

Possible Solution to the Restore/Not Recognized Problem

I FOUND THE SOLUTION!!!
...after hours of tech support ...from Bolivia
You need to reformat the iPod going through "My Computer" and using the basic Windows Reformat. Not the Quick Format. Then, open iTunes and a Restore option will be avaliable. Make sure that you have an internet conection to download the software. Should fix the problem. Good Luck!

Second day and no freeze from sleep.

Closing the smartcover does not lock/unlock my ipad

My smartcover does not activate lock/unlock any more

Yes, that's the first thing I checked. Now I have reset the iPad, checked that software is up to date, turned off/on and still the same. Closing the cover has no effect. Wonder what else it could be?

Using the iBook with the cover closed

Can you hook up external monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc and use the iBook with the cover closed? I know that usually closing the cover puts it to sleep.

The keyboard is an important component of the cooling of the CPU. Excess heat dissipates through the keyboard. Closing the cover would cause damage to other components from the heat. You can run iTunes with the screen off if that helps. Do that in systems prefs>energy saver and set the screen to go off in three minutes (or one) and the CPU to stay on indefinetly.

[solved] Digital Camera not recognized in device-manager

My digital camera "Canon Powershot SX120 is" is not recognized by the devicemanager. I have read Digital Cameras.
$ groups
wheel storage users printadmin
The "camera"-Group isn't needed anymore and this group doesn't exist on my system.
The Powershot SX 120 has a MTP/PTP connection mode (as the manual says). But:
# mtp-detect
Unable to open ~/.mtpz-data for reading, MTPZ disabled.libmtp version: 1.1.6
Listing raw device(s)
No raw devices found.
gphoto succeed:
$ gphoto2 --auto-detect
Modell Port
Canon PowerShot SX120 IS usb:002,019
A gphoto --summary could be found here
There is no udev-rule for this camera. If i create one while copying a rule from a similar camera from /etc/udev/rules.d/69-libmtp.rules, and store it into /etc/udev/rules.d/69-canon.rules, the device-manager shows up. My udev-rule:
# Canon PowerShot SX120AX (PTP/MTP mode)
ATTR{idVendor}=="04a9", ATTR{idProduct}=="31e0", SYMLINK+="libmtp-%k", ENV{ID_MTP_DEVICE}="1", ENV{ID_MEDIA_PLAYER}="1"
The device-manager shows me only the option to open with a file-manager. Doing so will result in an error:
The file or folder udi=/org/kde/solid/udev/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1/usb2/2-8/ do not exist.
With my udev-rule:
solid-hardware listen

Listening to add/remove events:
Device Added:
udi = '/org/kde/solid/udev/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1/usb2/2-8'
Without the active udev-rule, "solid-hardware listen" produces nothing, but
udevadm monitor
monitor will print the received events for:
UDEV - the event which udev sends out after rule processing

KERNEL[5077.662572] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1/usb2/2-8 (usb)

Don't know what to do ... is a udev-rule necessary to bring up the message from device-manger? Or is the Camera not recognized as a mtp-device (the Camera has no such settings)? How could i figure it out?
With Digikam i could import Fotos, but i would do so with gwenview. I've tried to check it out with gwenview_importer:
$ gwenview_importer --udi '/org/kde/solid/udev/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1/usb2/2-8'
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
gwenview_importer: Missing required source folder argument.
(don't care about the different udi, i took this example from a former try) but i don't know, how to find out where the "source folder" is ...

I have solved this by making an extra udev-rule for my camera. See my adventure on forum.kde.org for details

IMac not recognizing bluetooth nor USB mouse and keyboard

The iMac I use has suffered a pretty annoying problem. I typically use a wireless keyboard and magic mouse with the iMac (I could be wrong, but I believe these both use Bluetooth technology). First, the iMac stopped recognizing these. They kept losing connection last Friday and then suddenly stopped recognizing them at all. Yes, they both have full batteries and blink to show me they are on and searching for the iMac.
Second, I tried using a USB mouse and a USB keyboard to get into the iMac and fix the problem. But neither are recognized by the iMac as well. The mouse is a Dell model that has a red light on the bottom, and it glows red for less than a second when I plug it into the USB port before going dark again and not working. So, I can't get into the iMac to fix the problem.
I've read a few other things on the community boards. I restarted the iMac. I unplugged it completely for several minutes and held down the power button for fifteen seconds while the power was unplugged. I've tried multiple mice and keyboards, all to no effect.
Is the iMac not recognizing the USB keyboard/mouse because it's still searching for the bluetooth versions that it will no longer recognize? Is there a way to fix this without setting up an appointment with the geniuses?
Thanks!

I'm having the same problem. It started happening on my Late 2012 model iMac 21.5" after applying the latest update.
What I found was that nothing seemed to work connected directly to the iMac. However, if you attach an externally powered USB hub, then all devices attached to the hub will work. It seems as if the USB ports are still working, but without power.
After I was able to get my USB keyboard to work, I was able to zap the PRAM (hold command-option-P-R while powering on) and then magically everything was back to working again. Unfortunately, this was short lived as the problem has resufaced again for me today, but you could give it a try anyway.

IPhone is not recognized by iTunes

iPhone 5, had nothing but problems with this Phone, something i never had when i had a wackberry. Firstly the lock button broke, now the phone wont sync and crashes every couple hours unexplainably which is excellent when im typing an email.
The 3rd problem now, after my second phone replacement the phone will not sync all of sudden which is no supprise as to be honest this has a worse repuation than blackberry at the moment, the iPhone 6 will have to be improved on this as it is quite frankly annoying that i should spend £500+ on somthing that performes like its £200....
Back to the sync problem, all of a sudden unexplainably my iPhone 5 will no sync plugged it in i have reinstalled iTunes and still isnt working.... Please no stupid answers like "please check the wire" as i have used my other iPhone 5 cable and my other iPhone 5 which also is now not syncing, so its either a phone fault or a itunes fault.
suggestions, thanks.

Well, you do not mention in the thread what you say in the subject, not recognized by iTunes. So, if I understand correctly, you have an iPhone 5, the lock button broke, the phone won't sync, and it crashes every couple of hours.
Well, what troubleshooting have you tried. I don't want to waste either of our time by typing things you have already done, but my first suggestion would be to take the device to Apple to have it replaced since the lock button or sleep/wakd button is necessary to do much of the user troubleshooting, and also to put the device into recovery and DFU mode. Without it, it is very difficult to do a lot of things.
You also do not mention what computer OS you are using, and then your edit says you removed and reinstalled iTunes. There is a specific way to do that and not doing it correctly can just compound problems.

IPhone 5 will not boot up past startup screen after attempted update to iOS 8. Not recognized by computer.

Like everyone else today, I attempted to make the move to iOS 8, using my Mac's iTunes. All was running smoothly, the progress bar was nearing the end when I received the error that "the iPhone software update server could not be contacted." With a now useless phone, I restarted it, hoping for the best as I could do nothing. I am now stuck with a phone which will turn on to the white startup screen and black Apple Logo, then instantly shut down, leaving me to repeat the process. If I hold down the home button, I can enter what seems to be "Recovery Mode," with a red iTunes Logo, as opposed to the usual blue. From here, all internet sources I have found suggest that I should restore the phone, but that's really where I hit the problem. When I plug the phone in, when in Recovery Mode, I simply receive the "iPhone software update server could not be contacted" error again, leaving the phone not recognized by iTunes. In non-recovery mode, the phone appears to simply turn off so fast that iTunes has no time to find it.
Any one with similar problems or solutions?

This what happened to my iPhone 5 after I updated to iOS 8.0;
The update process was done smootly without problems thru
Over the Air.
Now when I cold start/boot my iPhone 5, my apple logo appears as it was
in iOS 7, but after 30 seconds or so, my Apple Logo dissappears the
screen goes black for 5-6 seconds, but then viola! I am at the Log-On
screen... Then I start using my iPhone.
Just like Chris above, I have done 10 reboots, (complete shut down and
restart), its always the same...
Other than this, my iPhone works just fine. I will not re-install the iOS.
From my past experience, re-installing the iOS does not change
these minor differences...

Drive not recognized - new issue...help please

I am replacing a 120 GB drive with a 250 GB one to give more space for video files. On reboot, I get the message: You have inserted a drive not recognized...etc...with the choices to initialize, ignore or eject.
Then I notice that the drive on the same bus (in the bottom of the tray) is not seen on the desktop. It was in two volume partitions and was also a 250GB. Big mystery. So I remove the new one and connect just the older drive. No luck, message says ...a drive not recognized...etc. So then I change the jumpers twice - same results - and I remove the jumper...same thing. I see this drive in Disk Utility represented by a number and size (232 GB) but not by the volume names. And when I try to verify or repair, the option is greyed out (yes, I booted to the install disc and went to Disk Utility, as per instructions.
This disk has data on it I need, and it's not backed up. All I did was unplug the connectors and then replaced them as before. So please, tell me how I can restore this one. I could remove it and put it in an external FW enclosure and then see if it shows up, but I don't want to take chances. Worse case scenario is a data retrieval service - and I'm almost certain I shouldn't have to do that as this is a healthy drive.
Any suggestions very gratefully appreciated, thanks!
Keith

Tom, I tried every one of your suggestions: set the older drive (Seagate) at P4 and first connector on IDE ribbon to cable select and the new drive (Hitachi) in tray just above it at P5 - end connector on ribbon also to cable select. Result: two dialog boxes for both drive on reboot "You have inserted a device not recognized..."
Then I tried slave on the Seagate and Master on the Hitachi...same result as above.
Then I tried alternate Master and Cable Select configs. on the Hitachi for 15 or 16 pin..whatever that is...but was printed on strip on drive. No go.
I think it must be another issue here than jumpers...although that may have something to do with it. When I installed a new drive in my Quicksilver I never got the Device Not Recognized dialog...it either saw the drive with all data on it or it didn't, until I set the jumpers correctly, as directed for that incident.
What bothers me is that when I removed the new Hitachi entirely and reconnected the old Seagate as the only drive on that cable, either with jumper set to CS or M or S I am still getting the dialog.
Any other solutions, please.
K.
