Settings menu is crashing - Z1 compact

Hi everyone,
I have following issue: when I try to open the settings menu it is crashing immediately. This problem remains even after restarting the device.
This happened yesterday without having downloaded or updated any (suspicious) app.
Happens on my Z1 compact with android 4.4.4.
I thank any suggestions in advance! If I forgot to mention something, please inform me.
Solved!

Player Settings Menu Intermittently Does Not Work / Settings Manager Crashes - Firefox 6.0/Windows 7

1) I occasionally have a problematic issue with the Flash Player Settings menu, primarily with SocialVibe (media.socialvi.be) applications associated with FarmVille, activities such as video quizzes and interactive surveys. Sometimes after loading these applications, the Player Settings menu opens requesting permission for local storage space changes, however I am unable to left-click on anything at all within the Player Settings menu: Allow/Deny the requested change, manual storage setting adjustment, switching tabs within the menu, or (particularly frustrating) to close the menu. Usually if the Player Settings menu requests a local storage change, I can select my preference and it works properly.
When the Player Settings menu opens and is non-functional, the application will still run in the background, seemingly without issue, but is inaccessible because the Player Settings menu is active. I have tried closing/refreshing the application, but the menu still remains unusable. Many times there are several activities offered one right after another. When one is completed, the link refreshes and a new application becomes available. Each application is unique and only available for a very limited time. The inability to make changes or close the Player Settings menu effectively blocks these activities from being completed. Since I cannot complete the activity, the link for itwill not refresh, so I am stuck with an application where the Player Settings menu will not function properly and I have no opportunities for new activities.
Interestingly, when the Player Settings menu is oblivious to left-clicking with the mouse, I am able to select the options of Allow/Deny/Close by using the tab key on the keyboard to highlight the appropriate button, however pressing enter does nothing. I can also right-click with the mouse and access the menu for Settings/Global Settings/About, which works properly. In this menu, when I choose Settings, it takes me to the Local Storage tab of the Player Settings menu, however I am still unable to make any changes, switch tabs or close the menu. When I choose About, it will load the Flash Player webpage and it does tell me that I have the most current version (10,3,183,5) successfully installed. When I choose Global Settings, it will open the Flash Player Settings Manager, which I am able to navigate and modify (mostly, related issue below).
2) I also have an issue with the Flash Player Settings Manager. When I try to open the Local Storage Settings by Site, the Settings Manager will usually crash. It crashes whether I open the Settings Manager from the Player Settings right-click menu or through the Windows Control Panel. I had originally assumed that there must be so many websites listed that want storage permissions that it takes a while to load, but until this evening it had never loaded successfully and would go unresponsive almost immediately. This evening I attempted to access the Local Storage Settings by Site many times, crashing and restarting the Settings Manager, until it finally loaded.
In the Local Storage Settings by Site, media.socialvi.be (SocialVibe) is shown as having 0kb Storage Used and Ask Me under Storage Settings. Because every application from SocialVibe is different, I want Flash to ask me each time it wants to change the storage settings, so I do not want to set its permission to Allow. From reading through the Flash troubleshooting webpages, I understand that choosing Block may cause the applications to not run correctly, and I do want them to run properly. The local storage request from media.socialvi.be was 5kb as shown in the Player Settings menu (that wasn't working), so if the Player Settings menu is not functioning and I must allow some level of storage, is there a way that I can specify how much to allow using the Settings Manager without setting the permission to Allow? I do not feel that websites should be able to store as much information as they see fit on my machine, and as I want to keep as much advertisement information, tracking, cookies, etc. off my computer as possible, setting the permission to Allow seems to be a risky permission.

I cannot find all my installed apps on the "use cellular data for" tab on the settings menu.

I have a new iphone 5s and on the first day I've received it, I updated to IOS 8.0.2.
Today, I've decided to turn my cellular data on and, in order to consume less data, I thought I would disable some of the apps. However, only a few were available/visible on the "use cellular data for" tab. However, when, with the cellular data turned on, I opened a missing app on the phone, it would start to appear on the list (where it wasn't previously). Also, when I go to the app on the settings menu, it would not have shown the option, "use cellular data" before I've opened the app and now it does. Do I need to turn on every single app before I can select my cellular data preferences? I know people with the same phone and their apps appear all, as expected.
I don't know if this is a problem of my own carrier but I don't think so, because the people I mentioned earlier have the same carrier.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Appel logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting.
If this does not work, did you try to switch off Cellular Data, restart the phone and switch it back on again?

Hi,
the settings are gone, i guess. But even worse, I cannot get the iPad2 to play Full HD thru the Apple digital AV adaptor using apps that support (and advertise this), like AVPlayer HD. This definiteley used to work before one of the last iOS upgrades. (I am now at 5.1.1).

I have an ipad 2 the game center it know is telling me that game center is currently disabled,you can change this in the settings menu. I do not know were in the settings to look, to fix the settings

i am getting a message on my ipad2, i was playing frogger pinball and and the front says story, challenge, add and store next to store it has a leaf with 3 people icons i clicked on that, and i am getting a message that says i hit game center on the bottom the message reads game center is currently disabled. you can change this in the settings menu I have gone to the settings menu but I am not clear as to were to fix the program.

Project settings menu does not appear

Running OS 10.9.5 and iMovie 10.0.5 on a macbook pro.
I'm trying to set the aspect ratio of my project. I have seen several docs and threads that say I should click File->Project Settings and the project settings menu will come up. However, I can't find that. The file menu does not contain Project Settings or anything like that. Neither do the other pull down menus.
I have also seen threads describing how when I create a new project (trailer or movie) and there is supposed to be point at which I can select the aspect ratio. Nope, don't see that either. For example, when I click the big "+" that is used to create a project, I get to choose between a trailer and a movie, then I get to choose a theme, then it asks for a name and I click OK and that's it.
I have also used Command-J, which is supposed to bring up the properties menu. That does give me the movie properties, but there is no place to choose an aspect ratio. I get the same results, or lack thereof, when I do Window->Move Properties (not surprising since command-J is the short cut key for this).
Question -- is this supposed to work with 10.0.5? I have tried to find a later version of iMovie but the only one I found on the apple store site was 10.0.6.
Any ideas?????

I have finally found where it is stated that iMovie 10 does not support project properties or changing the aspect ratio.
I love Apple and would never consider switching to a PD, but really, folks, this is just a plain dumb decision on Apple's part and IMHO reflects the continuing siphoning of quality resources from OS-X/laptops/desktops to iPhone and other gadgets. yuck.
consider this discussion closed (I don't know how to close it) and I will fire up my old iMini that has OS 10.6 on it and see if I can get the job done there.
yuck.

My iphone 3gs won't allow me to enter my email password. The acct is all greyed out in the settings menu and now I can't get email. I restored the phone through iTunes and did a hard reboot but nothing helped!!

I changed the password on my Yahoo mail account and now the phone will not let me enter the new password. The mail account is greyed out in the settings menu.

Try deleting the account and set up a new one. Also make sure to not sync the phone with old email settings.

Restrictions tab causes settings app to crash

I'm using iphone 4 GSM IOS 7.0.4. everytime try to enter Restrictions section in Settings app, It crashes the settings app completely. please help ASAP.
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately Stage3D recording does use up a lot of memory, because it's sending every single mesh and texture over wifi to Scout. If your game has a lot of 3D resources then this could cause it to run out of memory - in this case, it's not AIR that's crashing, but the OS is killing it because of it using too much memory.
My suggestion would be to do Stage3D recording when running your content on desktop (e.g. in a simulator), since you won't have these memory constraints. If you're deep-diving into rendering, then you should be able to solve your problems on the desktop, since the rendering is the same. Profiling on device is best for looking into performance and memory issues, since you absolutely have to run it on the target platform in order to meaningfully see what's going on.

Why can't i open iTunes and App Store in Settings Menu on iPad Mini IOS 7.1.2?

Why can't I open i Tunes and App Store in Settings Menu on iPad Mini IOS 7.1.2?

What happens when you try?
Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
No data will be lost.

I (though am not sure what happened) solved the problem. Under show all I had both videos and music selected as on. I turned off videos and ..hey presto..the slider reappeared.

DMA 2100, can't get to settings menu

Having trouble getting a DMA 2100 setup.
After it boots, I get to the welcome screen and I can usually get one or two remote presses before it freezes up.
So typically I can press the down arrow to get to the settings menu, and then I press OK to enter the setting menu and it freezes (no response from any keypresses on remote). Sometime I can get to the settings menu but can't do anything once I'm there.
I have tried the factory reset several times to no avail.
This happens both when I am plugged into the network and also when I am not.
Any ideas on what can be causing this or what else I can try?

I'm also having this problem. I navigate in the settings of the DMA2100 and it just locks up! No idea why. Remote stops working but the remote works for the mapped TV volume settings. I can tell the DMA2100 locks up because the cursor stops flashing in the network settings config.
Any help appreciated! No idea why this has started.
Thanks

When I go to Apple TV menu and click on Settings, nothing happens. How do I get into the settings menu?

Hi, I can't get past the setup stage with my Apple TV box. It takes forever trying to set the date and time and never seems to achieve this. When I select menu and then select Settings, nothing whatsoever happens. If I can't access the Settings menu, then clearly I can't set the network and password. Can anyone tell me how to get into the Settings menu please? Thanks

Honestly, I have never heard of this issue. The only thing that i can recommend is obtaining a Micro-USB cord and restoring the device. That's probably your only way out of this.
