Solution for slider sticking when trying to answer a call

I found that when I'm in any program, email, safari etc. and then lock the phone, when I get a call the slider sticks. I'd have to keep pushing the buttons to unlock it.
Then I discovered that if I leave whatever app I was using and go back to the main page (with all the icons) the slider works every single time.
I hope this helps some of you and I'm also interested to see if this works for other people.
Please post your results.

If you have to keep resetting iphone, and it is not working, you might have to restore the iphone.
Here is an article from the Apple support site that might help.

    My 'slide to unlock' sometimes will not unlock when trying to answer a call. How do I stop that happening?

    Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)
    Note: You will not lose any data.

  • N97 - restarts when trying to answer a call

    I have a problem since last update of software. My new N97 automatically restarts every second time I try to answer a incoming phonecall. What to do?

    Is it the latest software? Have you tried reinstalling it? It may have been a faulty installation.

    lots of people seem to be havgin a problem sending email from iCloud webmail.
    does your email address have uppercase characters in it?
    if so, try creating an alias in lowercase (go to preferences in iCloud webmail and select 'accounts') and see if email sends okay from that

    Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there.

  • Getting an error message that unable to check for software update when trying to download new iOS 8.0.2 update ?? Can someone help ???

    Getting an error message of unable to
    check for software update when trying to update to
    ios 8.0.2. Can someone help ??

    Howdy there otss1979,
    It sounds like you are unable to download the iOS 8.0.2 update either, over the air, or using iTunes. If you are updating the software on your phone in Settings > General > software update I would recommend starting with this article:
    Resolve issues with an over-the-air iOS update
    If you are using iTunes, I would use this article instead:
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes
    If you are getting a specific error number, the following article will help you get that resolved:
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors
    If this does not resolve the issue, could you please write the error message you are getting word for word for me?
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • My MacBook Pro is asking for a password, when trying to play DVD. Anybody experienced that before.

    One of user's MacBook Pro is asking for a password, when trying to play DVD. Anybody experienced that before?
    Maybe the DVD itself is password protected, the user is travelling abroad.
    Thank you in advance

    Hi m,
    My guess is the DVD is from another region than the one the optical drive is set to. Region changes are limited to 5 total, so it asks for the admin password to make sure you want to do it/allow it. After #5, the drive is locked to that region forever.

  • Safari for Windows crashes when trying to interact with bookmarks

    Hello, I've installed Safari for Windows but when trying to interact with bookmarks, it crashes everytime.
    Trying to view, create or import bookmarks all wield the same result: instant crash.
    Can someone help ?
    Thanks!

    Just to try, I copied the en.lproj to es.lproj in every subfolder on Program Files/Safari, this because I have a Spanish (Mexico) regional setting, and after a Safari restart, bookmarks now works and even imported my info from IE and Firefox. This also worked me for other issues. More details in:

  • What does it mean when trying to answer an email and it fails due no relaying allowed.

    What is relaying? When trying to answer an email an error message says me relaying allowed. What is needed to answer an email? Please help!

    Generally, in order to download an app, you need about twice as much space as the size of the app. So, you'd need about 2.8 gigs in order to download that app.

  • Tour 9630 says phone in use when trying to make a call.

    We have 10 new BB Tour 9630. We have already returned one due to garbled voice. Another has developed a new condition that such that when trying to make a call it says "phone in use" when there is no call in progress. Only solution so far is to take battery out and reboot. It has happened 2 times in the past week. Taking the battery out and rebooting is not an acceptable solution. Anyone have any better ideas?
    Thanks

    Other than exchanging it, I would suggest upgrading the OS to the latest released and see if that helps any.

  • TS3406 why do i get the message (LG-HBM760,I phone, speaker)when trying to make a call?

    why do i get the message (LG-HBM 760,iPhone,speaker) when trying to make a call?

    If you have a bluetooth device connected to the phone, it is allowing you to select the audio device you want to use to handle the call with. There should be a checkmark by the device it is going to use, and you can change that if you like.

  • Solution to stop error when trying to create a portfolio

    Hi all,
    I finally found a way to make a portfolio in acrobat pro 9. The problems I was having were explained in the thread titled "Acrobat pro 9 has a stop error when trying to create a portfoloi"
    It seems ther is another way to do this, by selecting 'combine' and then 'merge files into a single pdf' rather than 'assemble pdf portfolio'.
    The merge option also gives the choice of making a pdf package and does not result in a stop error with authplay.dll.
    So much for Adobe support who conuld not tell me this or respond to support requests.
    All I have to do now is to remember to not click on 'assemble pdf portfolio' when I want to assemble a pdf portfolio but "merge files into a single pdf" when I want to assemble a pdf portfolio.
    I would still like to hear from Adobe why acrobat pro 9 has a stop error with authplay.dll.
    I feel a lot happier now.

    I read through the pdf wth your emails to/from customer support. I'll have to defer to someone else because it seems you have tried what I would suggest.
    If someone else does not respond with a better plan and you are willing to spend a bit more time before writing off Acrobat 9, I would try the process below one last time. (If you are using a CS suite, while authplay.dll is found in each of the directories, it does not appear that the issue extends to the other programs.)
    1. Using Add/Remove Programs, uninstall all Adobe Acrobat and Reader software and uninstall the Adobe Flash Player Active X and Adobe Flash Player Plugin. If you have it, uninstall Adobe Air.
    2. In C:\Documents and Settings\(your profile name)\Application Data\Adobe, delete the Acrobat and Adobe PDF folders if they still exist.
    3. Reinstall only Acrobat 9.
    4. From Acrobat, run the updater Help > Check for Updates and install all updates.
    5. Verify Adobe Acrobat is now version 9.2: Help > About Adobe Acrobat Pro  (If for any reason it is not 9.2, use the update on http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows
    6. Test

    While searching for a solution, I just saw your post over at acrobatusers.com (http://www.acrobatusers.com/forums/aucbb/viewtopic.php?id=15765). Looks like my advice was largely a duplicate, although your event log indicates Acrobat did not update properly.
