Text turns off when i am adding in recipient

When I try and start a new text message and type in the recipients name the phone just takes me out of the message programme.  The only way I can do it is to press the + button to access my contacts then search using the side scroll bar (again if i start typing the name in the search area it comes out of the programme)  - why is htis - it's time consuming

The display is supposed to turn off when you hold the phone to your ear (so your ear doesn't touch any controls). If it happens when you are not holding it to your ear this usually means that your case is covering the sensor that turns it off when you hold it to your ear.

  • On a 5s how do you make the light turn off when phone rings or when you receive text, at work I would like to shut that off. Also seems like vibrate doesn't always work?

    On a 5s how do you make the light turn off when phone rings or when you receive text, at work I would like to shut that off. Also seems like vibrate doesn't always work? I had a 4s and didn't have these issues

    Thank you, I did find that. Still my phone does not always vibrate when ringer is off for texts and calls, only sometimes?

  • Horizontal spry menu style appears turned off when on the internet though can view it in live mode!?

    The style of the horizontal spry menu seems as to have been turned off when on the web though is visible and functioning on CS4 Dreamweaver design and live views. I have styled the spry menu and can view it in the properties section though the style setting is there on the internet it looks as if the styles have turned off and appears unformatted vertically when it should be a cascading horizontal menu bar. Not sure where the error is, I have looked at the coding and as I'm not the most experienced with spry.....
    this is the coding above the head.
    <script src="../SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript">
    <link href="../SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    <!--
    var MenuBar1 = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar("MenuBar1", {imgDown:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarDownHover.gif", imgRight:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif"});
    //-->
    </script>
    I have noticed that SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css doesn't appear in the spry assets folder, does this matter? (not sure how to insert into the assets menu).  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    thanks for testing it. I'm not sure how to proceed though as the css file is in my local_sites/spry assets folder for the website. I've tried to point it to other (copies of SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css) and spry assets folder externally from the site and again internally in the root folder and seems to make little or no difference.
    Your suggestion of what it should read,(sorry to sound so naive at all this) though would you mind giving a step-by-step guide on how to go about it? as I'm obviously missing something in the setup process.
    thanks again for your help.

  • Any fix to iTunes music turning off when iPad 1 put onto charging stand?

    Any fix to iTunes music turning off when iPad 1 put onto charging stand?

    Ok, I found a solution that worked for me when trying to connect to the iTunes store by tapping the "update" button in the "App Store" app on my iPad 2. Before the solution was implemented I'd always get the error message "cannot connect to iTunes store". Once the solution was implemented I now can connect to iTunes using the "update" button in the "App Store" app and I get the normal message "All apps are up to date". The solution is this:  go into Settings, then General, then scroll to the bottom where it says Date and Time. Tap Date and Time and then turn OFF Set Automatically. When you do that a new option will be added that says Set Date and Time. Tap it. You'll now get a drop down feature. Set the Date AHEAD 2 YEARS. The Time you can leave alone.
    Once you do that you might get a bunch of reminders and messages that your apps and stuff haven't been updated in two years. Click cancel or close on each of those messages or reminders. Now go back into Settings, General, Date and Time, and turn Set Automatically back to ON. Reboot your iPad. Open the App Store app again and go to the Update button. It might ask you to log back in to your iTunes account. It should now work. If not, close the App Store app completely and open again and try the update button. Hope this helps.

  • My iPhone 4S was turned off when the battery got empty, and when I put it on the charger it didn't charge at all. I tried restarting it (on/off home button for 10 sec) nothing happened except it kept giving me the "charge battery"  on its screen.

    Hi! My iPhone 4S was turned off when the battery got empty, and when I put it on the charger it didn't charge at all. I tried restarting it (on/off home button for 10 sec) nothing happened except it kept giving me the "charge battery"  on its screen. I tried with different chargers, still dead! What's weirder is that my sister who has iPhone 4 experienced the same today! No we don't live in the same house!! Does anyone have the same problem?

    On belhalf of my fellow volunteers, the answer is, "We'll try our best." 
    My advice is to try not to treat this like it is a paid service provided by compensated professionals.  Ask nicely and one of the nice folks here might take some time out of their weekend to offer advice.

  • Macbook works fine when plugged in, turns off when unplugged.

    Hello all,
    As stated my 2008 Unibody 13 inch, serial number W8******1AX turns on and works fine when it is connected to power.
    When it is unplugged it instantly turns off and turns its fans on full until it depletes the battery (so it is obviously getting power.. just not where I want it)
    Since the problem began I have tried two new batteries, neither of which had any different symptoms.
    Before this, the computer had an intermittent life, it would turn off when it saw fit, which got progressively worse.
    I have followed the guides to resetting the SMC but have had no luck
    I have been running it without the battery (to save it charging and discharging for no reason) and sometimes when plugged in without a battery
    the magsafe green indicator light goes from dim to bright.
    With the battery installed it stays bright orange until it is charged and then switches to bright green.
    (I have tried it with another charger, same symptoms)

    Many thanks!!

    There may be a hardware cause behind the symptoms you cite, so a diagnostic
    is recommended to see which parts are weak or failed in the computer. A visit to
    an Apple Store with Genius bar may be helpful, as they can perform testing there.
    A call ahead or use their web page, to schedule an appointment, is advised.
    In the US and Canada, the Genius bar at a retail Apple Store can perform
    a diagnostic service, for no fee, even on Apple products without AppleCare.
    See links:
    Apple - Concierge
    Genius Bar - Apple Retail Store:
    http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
    List of Apple Stores, cities, countries:
    http://www.apple.com/retail/storelist/
    Also authorized Apple service providers who can test, repair and guarantee their
    work should be able to handle an out-of-warranty older Mac, within age limits...
    Ones too old for the Apple Store could be serviced at a Specialist, instead.

    Apple Portables: Calibrating your computer's battery for best performance
    •The power adapter can be problematic and cause issues, so there's this:
    Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters
    Also another item, other than keeping the magnetic connections clean of
    debris, grime, and corrosion, is to check the MagSafe Board or have it
    checked as part of a greater diagnostic. This board is behind the port
    that supplies the computer and the battery with power from the adapter.
    When it partially fails or if/when one of the connecting wires or plug fails
    you can find odd issues or partial use. The battery may charge but it
    may not be able to power the computer, and other odd effects.
    https://www.ifixit.com/Device/MacBook
    In older portable Macs, this was generally called a 'DC-in board' and as
    such, you could read about it in an iFixit repair guide for the MacBook
    model you have. These vary so the matching article is recommended to
    see if that is something you may want to try. But I would have diagnostic
    testing done and avoid additional damages from attempted DIY efforts.
    There have been a few reports of other failure on the logic board that
    contributes to a partial failure of the charging system, so about all this
    may do is troubleshoot around the failure without finding an exact cause.
    However it goes...
    Good luck & happy computing!

    Hi there 8472kck!
    I have some information for you that can help you troubleshoot this issue a little further. That information can be found right here:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 15 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

  • How do I make my iPad turn off when the screen is covered?

    My old iPad would turn off when I closed the cover but I cannot find how to make the iPad air turnoff in a similar fashion?

    dpna wrote:
    Yes it is a proper cover
    If it is an APPLE COVER, perhaps it's not the one for that model. But, if it's not an Apple cover, then maybe the manufacturer hasn't set up the magnets the way they are supposed to be.
    I'm going to quote from another post elsewhere ...
    Are you using a genuine Apple cover or another third party cover?
    It's the magnets in the cover which activate the lock/unlock feature to appear in your settings. In earlier iPads you could slide a magnet down the side of the iPad to find where the magnet activates and turn the feature on.....Apple have now changed how this works with the iPad Air. Whereas before there was only 1 magnet positioned in the cover for earlier iPads, it is now thought there are 2 with alternating polarity.
    So if you want this feature you will need to buy an Apple cover or wait for third party manufacturers to get their magnets in the correct position.
    If you do have a genuine Apple cover then there is something going wrong here....

    If your Apple TV is connected to your network via wi-fi, it could boil down to a range / signal quality issue.  Are you able to stream any other services to the Apple TV without issues?  If possible, connect the Apple TV with ethernet cable and see if that resolves your issue.
