Square app crashing and freezing on iphone 4

I have a square app and device to process my cc and last 2 days keeps on crashing and freezing
I have an iphone 4 and it is up to date with all the updates, is it the app itself? the phone company? the phone?
I am very frustrated. Has this happened to anyone? what do I need to change? or Do?
thanks

I forgot to mentioned that as an ONLY solution I kept on RE-installing the app 7 times!!!
that seemed to be THE ONLY WAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM, horrible and frustrating, has anyone experienced the same type of problem?

Frequent crashes and freezes on iPhone 3GS

My 3GS I recieved after Christmas last year has been freezing and crashing everday for a few months. The screen locks up and displays odd pink lines, it shuts off randomly, or just freezes. Is it worth taking it in? I just hard reset it everytime, it doesn't effect anything.
On another note, where can I get new earbuds? I've had several pairs from different products and they've all broke.

Of course you should take it back.
I cannot believe how many people live with fault equipment for months without doing something about it and then discover that the product is out of warranty.
If your phone is under warranty, and by the sound of it you are almost out of date, take it back to Apple for it to be looked at.
If it has hardware issues, then they will replace it, if it's software issues they 'should' be able to fix it.
Before you take it back though, make sure you sync everything to your computer because if they replace it, you will get a fresh phone with none of your data on it.
Earbuds are a consumer choice, Apple make them as do many other companies, and many are very low in quality. Again, if they break without too much abuse, I would be going back to the manufacturer and demanding a replacement/refund for them too.

Every time I go to purchase a in game purchase my app crashes and freezes

Just a recurring problem with in game purchases

Hi, Lilguygizmo.
I would recommend closing any open applications in multitasking and restarting the device. If unfamiliar with multitasking, I have included a screenshot on how to process an application close. Test the results after processing these steps.
If the issue persists, see the steps in the article below.

Iphone Crashing and Freezing

Hi! I'm mostly looking to see if I have a lemon or if others are experiencing the same problems I have been having with my iphone. My iphone crashes and freezes several times daily. I have to reboot at least once a day, and often more than that. I've already sent the iphone to apple for repairs, and it came back with the exact same issue. I could live with the $200 dollar decrease in cost, but for that extra 200 dollars, I would love an iphone that is reliable!
Most of the other users I've seen here seem to be experiencing only intermittent crashing, and specifically of utilities...they usually find themselves back in the start screen. My phone is freezing...literally no brain activity. Please let me know if you have the same problems.

I am not sure that you should be subjected to the Freezing and Crashing on a continued basis as you describe.
As I have said before, Resetting and Restoring merely bypasses the fact that you are not fixing the problem but in fact putting a Band Aid on a mortal wound. These freezes are associated with a malfunction in the iPhone, whether it be software or hardware, it is a iPhone problem.
You should get down to the Apple Store and tell them what is happening and either get a replacement or assistance in helping you get your iPhone sent to Applecare.
I would not wait.

TS4006 It will not update. Just sits in my App Store and freezes . I have a iPhone 4S with the latest software.

It will not update. Just sits in my App Store and freezes . I have a iPhone 4S with the latest software.

If it's freezing when you try to update apps, try force-closing the App Store app. From your home screen, double-tap the home button, locate App Store in the list on the bottom, tap an hold it until it wiggles, tap to close it, tap the home button again. Try updating again...any difference?

My iPhone opens up my app (clash of clans) it loads half way then the app crashes and closes HELP!! And yes I have updated the game :(

New to Apple TV - do they all crash and freeze like this?

I have had mine for about 10 days. I have had it freeze (and do the diagnostics/restart) about 15 times.
I am starting to get the hang of it. It seems to hate a bunch of my videos (encoded home movies mostly - used Handbrake and VisualHub's Apple TV setting). I can get it to crash 'on demand' on a few videos.
What gives with the crashing? Can't it just choke on a video and refuse to play? Many times the crashing does not seem to be specific to a video though.
I have tried the diagnostics - it reported that it was fine. I tried the system restore .. still having trouble. I am thinking if I restore it again I should stick to the first firmware (ie: not update). Might that help?
Things are working better with the sync'ing now that I know that iTunes must be open - and I disabled the Windows 7 firewall rather than just poking the hole for the port Apple was requesting.
Anyway - I am really disappointed. The iPhone remote is great, I love having my iTunes library in sync - but lack of 1080p and these crashes are driving my family crazy. I am probably gonna return it, but hoping for some ideas...

do they all crash and freeze like this?
No, they don't.
Take a look at this document to see what formats are supported and how to properly convert them.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1532
This next document is very specific as to the formats that will play.
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP19
iTunes has the ability to convert movies to the proper format. So does Quicktime Pro. For the record, though, I have converted a number of videos using the Mac version of Handbrake and have had no issues what-so-ever playing those files.

My iPad air keeps crashing and freezing when browsing the internet . Please help :(

My husband and I updated to the new OS. Now our iPad Air's keep crashing and freezing whilst browsing the internet. We have done a reset and swiped away pages but nothing is helping. Its very frustrating Can anyone help? Thank you Jo

Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke. If it has not been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
First, confirm that this is what you did for a "reset." Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, since you have IOS-7, read this.

My iPhone 4S can't support camera 360 apps.Once I open the apps 3 sec it will auto jump out to the home page.Look likes the apps crashed.Isn't my iPhone problem or the apps got bug?Please help me.TQ

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

Reinstalling Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

My blackbery 9860 crashed and freeze quite a lot

hello blackberry support.. i hope you can help me...
my blackberry 9860 crash and freeze quite a lot and it's annoy me..
i have the bundling OS which is 7.0.0 bundle 2395
i still have 93.9 mb of application storage...
2.2 gb of built in storage
and 97.2 mb from media card...
what should i do to get rid of the crash and freeze??

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Finding out what is wrong is a matter of deduction...there may be a badly behaving add-on app causing it. There may be corruption in your OS. There may be a hardware level issue. You may be leaving too many apps open. Some apps may have memory leaks. The OS level you are using may have a memory leak. Many possibilities exist...so it's a matter of deduction for you to figure it out.
I would suggest starting with a clean OS reload. At the top of each device forum, there should be some "sticky" threads that discuss the OS levels available for many models. If they include your model, then please use those as reference as you proceed. Otherwise, you will have to dig through the official download portal for OS packages for your model:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
From a PC, you can install any compatible (e.g., for your exact BB Model Number) OS package to a BB via this procedure:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC. If that OS package is from a carrier other than the carrier for which your BB was originally manufactured, then delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
Be sure that you remove, from your PC, any other BB device OS packages as having more than one installed to the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.
You may also want to investigate the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe it is capable of.
You may also want to try this procedure to perhaps narrow down the precise causal item:
Load your OS "bare bones"...if anything is optional, do not install it.
If the behavior presents immediately, then try a different OS with step 1
If the behavior does not immediately present, then run for as long as it takes for you to be sure that the behavior will not present.
Add one thing -- no matter how tempting, just one.
If the behavior does not present immediately, then again run for long enough to be sure it will not have the same problem
Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are loaded or the behavior presents
When the behavior presents, you know the culprit...the last thing you loaded.
If the behavior does not re-present, then you know that either step 1 or 2 cured it.
If the behavior presents no matter what, then you likely have a hardware level issue for which no amount of OS or software can cure.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:

SOLVED: crashes and freezes

Ever since upgrading to SL, I have suffered frequent crashes and freezes which eventually bring the whole system down, and I have to Restart. Our IT guys (thanks Paul O'Connor) came up with a solution that reliably works for me. It possibly may have nothing to do with problems other people are experiencing, but I thought I'd share it with everyone, because it has been such an effective solution for me.
1. When first logging on, open Terminal (found in Applications>Utilities).
2. Type: 'sudo launchctl' and enter an admin password at the prompt.
3. Leave the terminal window open where you can get at it when needed.
4. When an application freezes or the Mac starts to behave badly, go to the Terminal window and type:
'stop com.apple.DirectoryServices' <return>
then
'start com.apple.DirectoryServices' <return>
For me, this brings my frozen apps magically back to life.
I hope this helps a few others,
Julian Blow

So what do if I do if terminal stopped working ever since I installed Snow Leopard? Also, in root mode, I am not even allowed to use the sudo command since it says both root and my main account are not in the sudoers file.
Looking at these threads on "Using Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard", almost none are about using features in the OS. They are all about how SL screwed up their computer and apps. Apple should be deeply concerned.

I have just updated my iPad to IOS 8.1.3 when I now try to open the emails nothing comes up and then the app crashes and returns to the home page. What should I do?

I have just updated my iPad to IOS 8.1.3 when I now try to open the emails nothing comes up and then the app crashes and returns to the home page. What should I do?

Since yesterday morning about 11:00 I have been having TERRIBLE email problems on this iPad 3G. Email comes in (I hear the sound) but nothing displays -- no folders, no content, no nothing in e-mail. The blank email screen shows up and then disappears after about 10 seconds, taking me back to the Home Screen.
Right now, the only way I can see email on this device is to log onto AOL via the AOL app.
I have been doing a lot of online reading about the problem. It has to do with iOS 8.1.3 and it affects older iPads and iPhones. I'm having no problems on my iPod touch, which -- fortunately -- is so old it cannot update its iOS 6.
I waited to update the iOS on this iPad until iOS 8 was "mature." That was about 2 weeks ago.
Anybody know know if Apple is aware? working on a solution?

IOS7: iPod app crashes and songs disappear!

It happened first as soon as I updated to iOS7. The iPod app crashed, and then I had no songs left, everything just went away.
I downloaded it back from iTunes Match, and a few days later it just happened again! All my songs were just wiped out after a crash of the iPod app!
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I'm using an iPhone 4 32GB.
Thanks.

Pleae - does anyone have any input?

Crashes and Freezes - too many to count in the last 48 hours

I generally Love Premiere and the whole CC suite. But this week the program continually freezes and just stops functioning. I've restarted both the program and my computer at least 20 times in the last 48 hours... you can how this is impacting my time and deliverable... which is due today BTW. I've edited a ton of projects in premiere but lately it seems to be crashing and freezing ALOT. I'm a professional and my demands are professional. Its when my tools start to let me down that I become disappointed and discouraged.
My question is WHY?
I would think that by now Premiere would be rock solid. Why is it not?

I *think* I found one of the issues... Red Giant Universe plugins seem to freeze up the system. So I yanked them off all my timelines and the freezing seemed to stop.
I also had strange issues with Red Epic footage and I believe the culprit for those was the Red Gamma 4 setting. Not scientific by any means but...
