Stopwatch Randomly Stops On It's Own - iOS5/4S

I use the built-in stopwatch in the "Clock" app quite a bit for work. I just got the 4S on Friday and was using the stopwatch several times today. Three seperate times, the stopwatch simply stopped without me touching it at all. First time or two I just thought I had brushed it or something and then I noticed that when it stops itself, the total time is still there but the lap time in the top right corner is reset to zero. If you stop the watch yourself, the lap time in the top right corner is preserved.
I realize people have a lot more fun things to play with on their new phones than the stopwatch, but has anyone else had this happen at all?

Hello Fixvet. I will send you a private message on how to perform a more powerful reset. Please check your inbox.

HT201412 my ipod touch is randomly playing songs on its own. i cannot choose the song I want to hear it continuosly skips several songs and then suddenly plays it. also the album cover does not match the song playing

My ipod touch is randomly playing songs on its own. It skips several songs then suddenly stops and plays that song. If i try to select a song it will not play that song it keeps skipping over severla songs at a time then plays again. The album covers do not match that song that is playing and now its not connected to wifi. I need help

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Sound randomly stops and starts

Hello,
Over 2 days, as I watch Netflix, or listen to music on other apps, my sound randomly stops and starts. I have no control of it. I do not have to touch my ipod when this happens, it does this on its own. On for 20 min, off for 5 min, on for 5, off for 2, on for 1 min, off for 15 min. It ossolates randomly through time.
I hard reboot, but this works or does not work (for a while). Any ideas?

Safari randomly stops opening pages

Hi Everyone,
Since upgrading to Yosemite, Safari randomly stops opening pages. It works for a while, then if I put my computer to sleep, sometimes when I wake my computer, Safari will no longer opens pages. When this happens, all apps requiring internet are affected including Firefox and Chrome which no longer work, as well as mail and iMessage.
They only way to get it to work again is to reboot my computer - sometimes I need to do this several times.
I have deleted Safari preferences to no avail.
Can anyone suggest a solution?
Thanks
TB

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Songs randomly stopping in itunes & itunes continuously determining gapless playback problems

I'm running itunes 11.1.4 on a macbook pro with mavericks (and have been since mavericks has come out), and over the past week, I've been running into two problems while importing new music into my itunes.
First, certain songs will randomly stop while playing and immediately go to the next song. It seems to be happening to files that are regular mp3 files. If I convert a flac file to mp3 and then add them to my itunes, they seem to play fine. I have also went into my itunes folder and played multiple songs that I've had these stopping issues with through my VLC and Quicktime players, and have had no playback issues while running them with VLC or Quicktime.
I should also add that under my itunes' advance preferences, I have "keep itunes folder organized" and "copy files to itunes media folder when adding to library" checked, so I assume that these files that I am choosing (control/click, "open with" VLC or Quicktime Player) to play through VLC or Quicktime are the exact same that my itunes is using when I select them within the itunes application.
I have checked the start and stop times, and they all show start 0:00 and then it's appropriate stop time. For example, my entire Eric Clapton collection will abruptly stop at 1:33. If I scrub past that point, the songs will play. But if they're left to hit 1:33 on their own, they stop and then the next song starts.
At first I was thinking that these were corrupted files, but this has been happening a lot, to a lot of different files, so I'm thinking this is some sort of playback issue through itunes.
My other problem, which I've started to notice only over the past week or so, is that itunes is continuously "determining gapless playback" over a group of about 1300 songs or so (give or take a few, that's roughly the amount of songs it says that it's running through). This will happen when I restart itunes after quitting, if I add new music, or sometimes just randomly as other music is playing.
I haven't been able to see if itunes continues to run through the same songs, since I tend to catch it while it's doing it, and not when it starts. And, the time it takes to complete can vary greatly from just several seconds to several minutes, all while showing roughly the same amount of songs being scanned.
I'm use to seeing itunes determine gapless playback when it was done importing a specific album, and that would be the end of it. But now, it keeps doing it. If I add an album, it starts checking an additional 800+ songs on average. And until it's done, itunes runs slow (playback buttons, scrolling through artists).
I know that these questions have been asked before, and I have google searched for them and have come across apple discussions about similar topics. However, more often than not, the discussions that I have come across have either been older, specifically about itunes store purchases, or have had multiple people say that they're having issues with no solution, so I apologize in advance if I've overlooked something that may have already addressed my concerns. I have also checked all of my permissions through disk utility, along with verifying the disk, which showed that it was running ok.

I have the same problem but with grievous outcome: my entire machine hangs; I've done EVERYTHING I, and several product specialists can think of short of deleting my entire music collection.
I don't think it has anything to do with the name of a single track - it's hanging on different tracks for me with no consistency in naming styles. I've reinstalled iTunes several times, killed the cache, the preferences, tried it as a different user, deleted and rebuilt my library, and NOTHING helps. When iTunes comes up, it immediately goes into "Determining Gapless Playback..." and withing 2-3 songs the machine HANGS and has to be hard powered.
Of course, I've tried to set every song to a non-gapless song, tried to turn on or off song crossfade, no luck.
APPLE: Please listen and help!! Make gapless playback a removable option or something!

Music randomly stops playing (same problem in multiple apps)

Since a few days, my Z1C will randomly stop playing sound, while I'm listening music. It will do this up to multiple times per minute, seems somewhat like a online game lagging really badly, after which it will just pause.
It does this on multiple apps (I tried it on the following
- Spotify
- Walkman (or whatever the music app is called now)
- Audible (audiobooks)
The issue happens both when I listen through my bluetooth headphones (Jaybird bluebuds x) as well as on speaker.
I have had the phone for somewhat more than a year now, I recon. The headphone jack is broken because of my own rough handling, but that wasn't a big deal so far because I use bluetooth anyway.
Anyone know what to do about this?

Hi Bmot,
Welcome to the community.
You could try booting the device in to safemode, at least this way you can find out if software is the suspect or if it is more likely hardware.

I took my iPhone to the Service center of M/s RSG INFOTECH PRIVATE LIMITED on April 17, 2014.
Why are you posting in this forum about what occured with an independent service provider? How is is at all relevant to Apple?? In fact, service by any person or business not authorized by Apple voids any waranty.

USB Ports Randomly Stop Working

I have an HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook with Windows 7. All of the ports, 2 2.0 and 2 3.0 ports, began to randomly stop working. My mouse light would still light up, but the mouse wouldn't work. If I rebooted the entire laptop, all of the ports would come back on for a short period of time before they randomly shut off again. They will also come back on for a short period of time if I close the lid for a few seconds and reopen it. However, lately, the 3.0 ports have stopped working entirely and the 2.0 ports stopping is becoming more frequent.
The first time I noticed this was when I was testing a micro usb cable (it has stopped charging and I was testing whether it was the cable or the wall adapter). I plugged the cable into one of the 2.0 ports and it gave me a USB surge warning. Other than that, I haven't received any notices. The drivers are up to date. I have uninstalld the root hubs multiple times. I have tried all kinds of Power plans for the laptop. Nothing works. The USB ports still stop working, and it's becoming increasingly more frustrating.

Hello Abby_Renee,
With the USB 3.0 port not working, and your 2.0 port working intermittently, I would suggest the following document Troubleshooting USB Connections (Windows 7) for troubleshooting.
In this document there is a specific option for USB 3.0 ports stop working, which would be the best steps to follow for your 3.0 ports. Now for the 2.0 ports, I would suggest USB device not detected by Windows (no device name in device manager), or the other option is USB devices are detected by Windows but are not working properly. The last two options are dependant on the specific errors you are experiencing.
Please let me know the outcome of the troubleshooting steps.
Good Luck!

BB Curve 8900 - randomly stops receiving emails and requires battery pull

I'm a newb to BB and this forum has helped a lot but my BB Curve 8900 randomly stops receiving emails about every 2 days and requires a battery pull to correct.
When it stops receiving emails and I go to the browser, it is also unable to connect. I basically lose all connection to data. I can receive calls and sms.
Turning unit off and on does not help.
I need to do a battery pull. Then starts working fine right away.
I'm with Rogers in Canada
Is there a fix for this? Could I possibly have a bad phone? Battery pull once is a while is fine but to need to do that every 2 days is not.

Something similar happens to me. I have to keep resending the service books and then it works fine, try this, at least it will stop you keep doing a hard reset. I have read somewhere else that this can be influenced by having your phone to turn off at night etc. So for now I have turned this feature off. I can actually receive emails via wifi and the failure is only on GPRS. It sounds a bit strange but I am also becoming convinced that it only occurs when I leave home, go somewhere else and then come back.
Read this below. I did do all this but it hasnt worked for me, may help you though

Direct Selection Tools Randomly Stops Functioning

Hello, I'm having some issues with Adobe Illustrator. For some reason, the direct selection tool will randomly stop allowing me to edit my anchor points. Instead of directly selecting a specific point on a path and giving me the option to move it/ adjust the curve, it just selects the entire path and simply moves it. This is very frustrating, because it forces my to make my paths perfect the first time I make them with the pen tool and doesn't allow me to edit them later. Before you ask, I am indeed using the plain white arrow (not the black one or the white arrow w/ the + sign) and I do not have any conflicting layers above the path or any strange groups that would cause this weird effect. The white arrow also makes the white box when I hover over an anchor point, but clicking doesn't do anything but select the entire path. Please help!

Christopher,
>This is very frustrating, because it forces my to make my paths perfect the first time I make them with the pen tool and doesn't allow me to edit them later.
Obviously, Illy is trying to help you get perfect.

External Speakers Randomly Stop Working until I "Test" or Disable/Enable

I'm using a HP Pavillion DV6 Notebook PC Running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1.
External speakers randomly stop working until I "test" or disable/enable them. Headphone/HDMI Audio Works.
Background
-Recently had to do a clean install of windows.
-Went to the HP Drivers Website and downloaded all of the latest drivers.
-I installed several other programs as well (Flash, Steam, Media Player, Browser)
-The problem started
Current Settings
-My deafult device is "Speakers and Headphones: IDT High Definition Audio CODEC"
-Enhancements are disabled
-Bass and Treble are set to 4
-Format is set to 16 bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality)
-Allowing applications to take exclusive control of the device or not doesn't make a difference (but it's currently off)
Troubleshooting
-The audio works by plugging in headphones or using an HDMI device
-The audio comes back if I go to my sound settings and hit "Test", or if I disable and re-enable the device
Error Messages
-Youtube starts the video for 3 seconds, restarts and sputters a bit, and then says that there was an error
-My media player (MusicBee) gives me this message: "Unable to start playback (Error = BASS_ERROR_BUFLOST)"
That's everything I can think of. Any ideas?

I see that you are having a frustrating time with the sound to your external speakers. Have you tried connecting the speakers to another computer to see if is a hardware issue with the speakers? Do the regular speakers work? What is your product number as there are several models in the dv6 series?

Hi I have a problem with my integrated mic. It just randomly stops working.
It was working fine until a few weeks ago. Then one day suddenly it didnt work. and itl randomly start working again.
One way that it got fixed one time was when i plugged in an external mic i borrowed from a friend and unplugged. after that my integrated mic started working again. the next day it stopped working again.
I have tried everything possible to try and fix it.
- Went to sound disabled/enabled it.
- uninstalled/reinstalled the drivers.
- installed other drivers such as realtek
- used the windows microphone troubleshoot.
- tried configuring the microphone.
- even tried system restore, but i only had like 2 restore points since my laptop is relatively new
Nothing has worked. Can someone please come up with an actual solution to my problem?
My laptop is a dv6-6c50us with windows 7 64bit home premium.

Ethernet Port randomly stopped working - u310 ultrabook

Hi,
So my Ethernet Port on the u310 Ideapad has randomly stopped working - by that I mean that when I plug in my LAN wire, the lights will show only when I switch on my laptop, till the Windows logo comes on, which is when the lights of the port go off and the port refuses to work.
I need LAN pretty urgently, so I was wondering if someone could please help me out! Thanks!

Hi Ipsh,
thanks for posting and welcome to the community. Based from your post there is apossibility that it it could be hardware. But however before we confirm let just trya few setting and software adjustment first. At this point I was just wondering if you have tried doing a software update, I would suggest you to uninstall the current drivers you have now and reinstall the drivers below.
http://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobiles/0wla01ww.exe
Please be informed that the driver above is meant for windows 7, if you have another operating system installed do let me know.
Regards
