"Timer" alarm won't stop going?

I have an iPhone 5 and use the "timer" on it a lot. Recently I noticed that sometimes, when the timer goes off, it won't allow me to tap "ok", the screen stays exactly the same and the tune continues to play. The only way I am able to solve this problem is by turning my phone off and on again. Is there any reason why this is happening or how I could fix it?

Have you tried a hard reset? Press power and home until the phone restarts and release when apple logo shows.
If it doesn't work, you can Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings

  • My alarm won't stop playing!!!

    I'm using an iPhone 5 (5, not 5c or 5s or whatever) and recently upgraded from iOS 7.1.1 (or 1.11?) to iOS 8.1 and am encountering a big problem with my phone's clock/alarm app...
    After the alarm rings, I get to hit "Snooze" or "Ok". If it Hit Ok the alarm keeps playing over and over again until I go into the music app, at which point it stops.
    I tried deleting all the alarms in the app, and re-creating them. That didn't work. I tried restoring my phone and trying again and that didn't work...

    Thanks Patrick. I think I tried that and it's about the same. It just keeps playing until it's ready to stop. But I never had this problem with earlier versions. I wonder if zapping the PRAM would do anything to help the playback issues.
    I've reinstalled both system and application software and I'm not sure if I'd gain anything by zapping the PRAM. Any thoughts?

  • Time Machine won't stop

    Ok, Last chance.
    I've been weeks trying to shot off Time Machine. I have tried: the simple On Off switch, tricking it by resetting the destination for the the backup-turning it off then on and reestablishing the Off switch. Someone suggested deleting files somewhere. All to no avail. No matter the attempt to shut it off nothing seems to work.
    Does anyone have a definitive answer to disengage Time Machine? I will be putting the Application in the trash after this enquiry. That will probably result in it rising from the trash grave to haunt me.
    Please help the helpless.

    Did you delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist ?
    Did you ever use +Time Machine Editor+ or a similar app, or manually edit any plists to change Time Machine's default behavior? If so, it's still doing the last thing it was told; use the same app or editing to reset it to normal operation, then turn it off.

    Won't help. The TM app mostly just displays the "Star Wars" window. The actual backup code is embedded in OSX.

  • My Powerbook won't stop going to sleep!

    My powerbook (randomly) goes to sleep. I can be in the middle of typing and it will (for no reason) go to sleep. Sometimes it will do this several times within a minute. Needless to say, this can be extremely distracting and annoying while working.
    Any idea why this is happening?

    A number of sleep-related issues can appear after incremental Mac OSX updates, including the inability to properly go to sleep, problems waking from sleep, and having your display go to sleep without your Mac going to sleep. The most common culprit is Bluetooth. Try these tips to fix your sleep problems.
    WAKE UP
    In System Preferences>Bluetooth, uncheck Allow Bluetooth Devices To Wake This Computer. If you are using a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, you'll have to wake your Mac by pressing the power button.
    FILE CORRUPTION
    Your Bluetooth preference file may be corrupt-you'll need to delete it. Turn Bluetooth off, then go to the /Users/user name/Library/Preferences folder. Look for a file called com.apple.Bluetooth.plist and trash it.The OS will create a new preference file when you enable Bluetooth again.
    ENERGY SAVER
    If you have issues with a Mac or display that goes to sleep at inappropriate times, you may have a problem with Energy Saver. Delete the following .plist files and restart:
    -/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
    -/Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist--(username is your name or System Administrators name).
    -/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.AutoWake.plist
    A restart is very important after deleting these plists. After a reboot your Mac will then generate new ones.
    Some, in these forums, have had luck fixing sleep issues downloading the Combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try.
    Yours would be the 10.4.6 Combo update. Others reading, download the combo update that applies to you!
    Cheers!

  • IBook won't stop going to sleep!

    Try as I might, I can't keep my iBook from going to sleep. The energy saver settings are set to sleep "Never." It's usually plugged into the wall and even when it is it goes to sleep after about 20 minutes. This is frustraiting as it make my away messages on AIM pointless. Anyone have any suggestions?

    I just read up on resetting the PMU and it looks like it might be a slightly risky operation. Having the computer constantly go to sleep on me is annoying but I don't want to damage any of my data or hardware. Is it a safe operation to do and if I do it what kind of follow up operations would be required (like resetting the time, etc.)?

  • I have a new Macbook Air and for the last few days the fan had run continuously, this is the first time it has ever run, and now it won't stop, the fan starts up as soon as I turn it on. The computer is not hot.Any ideas on how I can fix this please ?

    I have a new Macbook Air, 6 months old, and for the last few days the fan had run continuously, this is the first time it has ever run, and now it won't stop, the fan starts up as soon as I turn it on and the computer seems to running more slowy.The computer is not hot but I am worried it may burn out,.Any ideas on how I can fix this please ?

    Hello dwb,
    Here is the screen shot, just the top half, there are another 10 pages, but I guess this should enough for you to have an idea of waht is going on, bit small I am afraid. No, I don't have any apps setup to run when I open my computer, the kernel, varies between 290 and 305 per cent ish.
    Would that PRAM thing help ? I think it may be the computer itself, well something inside, as this the first time that the fan has ever started running since I have this computer, even when I have 3 or 4 apps running.
    Thank you again for your advice,
    Regard,

  • My Time Machine keeps backing up and won't stop.

    My Time Machine keeps backing up and won't stop.  The problem started when it said I was out if space.  It is supposed to delete the oldest backup.  Now I cannot even backup at all.  It just keep going and never stops, although it really does not work at all.  I have used the disk utilities and iI have Zeroed out. The TC is a 1 TB and is about 13 months old. Right now it says "79.9 MB of 104.9 MB" and "backing up 961,837 items". I do not have the check mark in "Notify after old backups are deleted." It will stay stuck like this for hours and hours.  The TC is plugged into a U-verse router and the 27" MAC is plugged into the TC.

    So you already wiped the old backup and started again??
    If that is the case it did a fresh full backup ok?
    How much free space is on the TC now?
    Do you happen to have multiple network links? Meaning do you have TC bridged to the U-verse router.. with both ethernet and wireless working at the same time. I discovered this one all by my loansome.. having multiple paths does not seem to worry most things on the computer.. but it totally kills TM.
    I had the same sort of thing happening in testing a TC I am fixing. So I have multiple ethernet and wireless. The incremental backups became extremely slow.. by turning off wireless and one ethernet so there is only one route to the TC.. it flys again.

  • Timer alarm can't be stopped.

    Yesterday evening I setup an timer for about 15 minutes and after the minutes are over the alarm started and on the lockscreen I saw the icon "disable alarm". I pushed this button but nothing happened, also going into the system to the timer where I can set it it was not stoppable. I could start a new timer but no stop was possible. My only solution was to push the home button as long as siri comes up and this had stopped the timer alarm.
    iPhone 5S with iOS 8.0

    I understand your frustration, however remember this is a small handheld computer and things happen. User troubleshooting is a restart (power the phone off/on), reset (hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release, the phone reboots) and the last two involve restoring. Most hiccups can be adjusted by a simple reset. I know you have restarted/rebooted your computer before.
    Funny, my alarm tone remained what it was with the alarm I had saved prior to updating, but the Timer tone was set to Radar? Go figure.

  • It won't stop - the amount to back up keeps going up

    Hi all,
    I set up Time Machine a few days ago and it worked flawlessly until this morning. I noticed a small (a few mail messages and some internet history) backup had taken over half an hour and STILL said "finishing," so I stopped it. Then, I clicked "back up now" to see if it would work. The icon won't stop spinning and it keeps saying it's almost done (like, 5GB of 5GB), but the number keeps going up. Two minutes from now, it'll say "6GB of 6GB."
    I downloaded TMBuddy, and here's my log for the current backup:
    Starting standard backup
    Backing up to: /Volumes/Time Machine/Backups.backupdb
    Error: (-1426) Applying backup protections to /Volumes/Time Machine/Backups.backupdb/Emily’s iMac/2009-02-11-070829.inProgress/F2DA6283-F643-42F6-A1F2-11A5B3401F87
    No pre-backup thinning needed: 100.0 MB requested (including padding), 346.10 GB available
    There's an error.... I'm thinking that's the problem? What should I do?
    By the way, my apologies if this question has already been asked and/or answered - I'm in a hurry this morning and wanted to get this posted.

    Thank you for the reply.
    I got home from school at 2 and checked the computer - it still said "finishing backup." Saw your post, changed the name, and restarted. I clicked "backup now" about an hour ago. The backup started at 19.2MB, and right now it's at 36.0GB. Kind of nervous... Here's the log for the current backup:
    Starting standard backup
    Backing up to: /Volumes/Time Machine/Backups.backupdb

  • HT201272 This method is exactly how I'm trying to get my music on my new iPod touch, it starts downloading but then stop and says unable to download at this time. What the **** is going on ?

    This method is exactly how I'm trying to get my music on my new iPod touch, it starts downloading but then stop and says unable to download at this time. What the **** is going on ?

    Try going to Settings>Store and sign out and sign back in.
    It also could be due to an Apple server problem. and yu will just have to wait and try again.

  • I was changing my desktop screen saver in system preferences screen protection.  Now it says it is "Loading Images" and won't stop.  The Colourful wheel goes around for ever and It does not stop. Can anyone help me?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    I have seen a lot of cases like your issue, and it's easy to solve.
    First, open Disk Utility, select Macintosh HD in the sidebar and repair permissions. Sometimes, a permission can be damaged and it makes that an application doesn't work properly.
    If that doesn't work, open Finder, select Go menu > Go to Folder, type ~/Library/Prefereces, delete "com.apple.desktop.plist" and "com.apple.systempreferences.plist" and restart

    It's just the Google homepage tribute to Pacman turning 30 today. A playable game starts up automatically, use the arrow keys to move Pacman. It's fun!
    You can get Ms Pacman to appear in that game by clicking the "insert coin" button twice and using the WASD keys to move :)
    You can also just change your homepage to something other than google until tomorrow.

  • Time machine won't backup. Says disk is full ( stand alone disk). Souldn't it delete enough to create new backup. Last backup was 7/20/11. When I click "enter time machine' it goes to mail screen and nowhere else.

    Time machine won't backup. Says disk doesn't have enough room. Shouldn't it delete old info to make space for new.
    When I click on "enter time machine" it takes me to the last backup 7/22/11 and doesn't allow me to go further back.

    No idea's?
    I'm starting to think I just need to delete the sparsebundle file altogether and start over again...

  • Calendar alert post-Mavericks installation won't stop chiming

    Installed Mavericks yesterday over Snow Leopard (10.6.8) and have had a host of problems that have paralysed my computer use. As someone who's not particularly tech-savvy and relies on their Mac for their living, this has been a nightmare. The most irritating problem has been that I use the glass chime for my calendar alert. Well, it won't stop ringing--it's like a button's depressed and stuck in that position. Can anyone help? It renders the audio unusable now, which means no VOIP calling or audio of any kind as I'm forced to keep it on mute. And I can't find anything on the Internet that indicates anyone else has had the same problem. Can anyone help? (And no idea if this is connected but my mouse is fluttering all over the place, which is yet another annoyance, leaving me wondering why I was so stupid as to upgrade.)
    Thanks!!

    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 merely by the seeming 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 read 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. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    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.

  • Time Capsule won't accept my user name and password for access - Help!

    Hi all,
    My Time Capsule seemed to stop working one day and I had to do a hard reset with the little button at the back. After that it worked and I restored my wireless network settings but now I can't access the Time Capsules hard drive with Time Machine.
    When I try to choose it as my Backup Disk in the Time Machine preferences it says "Enter your user name and password so Time Machine can access the file server "Our Time Capsule" (the name of my time capsule). However, every time I try to enter my password I get "Sorry, you entered an invalid username or password".
    I've already tried several resets of the Time Capsule and I've also tried logging on my computer as the Root user and changing my administrator account password back and forth but no go.
    Help! and Thanks.

    Norman & Harry,
    Consider the following:
    *_Time Capsule Keeps Asking Me For a Password_*
    It will be important to know what is going on, or what you are doing when it asks for the password. Is it asking for a password only when Time Machine attempts a backup? Consider this:
    It is NOT your username and password it wants when you try accessing the Time Capsule. (I know... it SAYS "username and password") But it means the Time Capsule's Name and Password.
    You will find that by launching Airport Utility.
    Select the TC on the left.
    Click "Manual Setup".
    Click the "Time Capsule" Tab.
    You will see "Time Capsule Name:" and "Time Capsule Password".
    Make sure “Remember password in keychain" is checked.
    That is the information you need to enter when it asks for "username & password."
    *I Don’t Remember What My Time Capsule Password Is*
    You can see what your current TC password is by going into Keychain.
    Open your Keychain and select "login" from the Keychains pane in the top left. Highlight "Passwords" in the Category pane from the lower left.
    Sort all the items by Kind. Note everything labeled "Airport...". How many do you have listed? There should only be one "Airport base station password" for each base station that you have active. Also, there should only be one "Airport network password" for each network you have created. If there are more than these, then delete all but the ones with the most recent Modification date.
    To see what passwords are being stored, double-click your Time Capsules' entry. A new window will appear.
    Put a check beside "Show Password". You may be asked for your own Admin password so enter that.
    Now the Password field will display the password you entered into Airport Utility for your Time Capsule
    *It Still Won’t Accept the TC Name and Password*
    Launch Airport Utility --> Manual Setup.
    Select "Disks" in the tool bar above.
    Click the "File Sharing" tab.
    Is "File Sharing" checked? It should be.
    What is selected beside "Secure Shared Disks"? If it says "With Accounts" or "With a Disk Password" then the system will ask you for a password every time it mounts the TC hard disk. If you switch it to "With Time Capsule Password" then use the password you designated earlier in the “Time Capsule" tab. It should only ask you once and then never again - because you had checked "Remember password in keychain".
    If you have made any changes then click "Update".
    Let us know if this resolves your issue.
    Cheers!
