To Reset or not to Reset

I am contemplating Resetting my phone to hopefully solve a very minor problem. I am hesitant to do so though, because my iPhone has worked like a charm so far and I am feeling a little paranoid.
My question is: has anyone reset their phone and encountered brand new problems afterwards?

I've done it twice with no ill effects!

  • Correct password not accepted, requested password reset but not receiving reset emails

    I am signed into the OLD Firefox sync with my correct password and username. I want to update to the new sync because I've got a new PC that i need to sync to and the old syn won't accept adding new units anymore. However, when I try to log in to update Firefox, it tells me that my password is wrong, which I know it isn't. I read that passwords set before 2012 may not be accepted, so I asked to have my password reset and Mozilla is supposed to send me a reset email. I've asked for the reset email multiple times, but they're never sent one (not in spam folder, I checked). Other have had this same problem, how can it be resolved? No way to email Mozilla support for help (grrr)

    No, I cannot, despite the fact that I know I have the correct password. I have requested a password reset many times, but the email is never received, and is not going to spam folder

  • To reset or not to reset that is the question

    About five days ago I lost about 1/3rd of my BB speed, so I reset my hub and infinity modem. My speed did not increase to its old rate so I thought fine I will leave it a bit see if it improves. Well it has not returned to its old rate so is it worth another reset or should you not reset to much?

    Turns out my line had errors. BT engineer came out and replaced a bit of cable comming into the house. Tells me the errors are gone but the sync speed has not yet increased, something needs to be reset he said and not sure if the guys that do that are in on Saturday. So I will have to wait a bit to see if the line is realy sorted.

  • What causes cellular data usage to decrease if last reset has not changed? I reset every pay period cuz I do not have unlimited and was showing 125 mb sent/1.2g received. Now showing 98mb sent/980mb received. Last reset still shows same

        I reset my cellular data usage every month at the beginning of my billing period so that I can keep track of how much data I am using thru out the month. I do not have the unlimited data plan and have gone over a few times. It's usually the last couple days of my billing cycle and I am charged $10 for an extra gig which I barely use 10% of before my usage is restarted for new billing cycle. FYI, they do not carry the remainder of the unused gig that you purchase for $10 which I disagree with. But have accepted. Lol  Moving on.
        I have two questions. One possibly being answered by the other. 1. Is cellular data used when I sync to iTunes on my home computer to load songs onto my iPhone from my iTunes library(songs that already exist)? 2. What causes the cellular data usage readings in iPhone settings/general/usage/cellular usage to decrease if my last reset has not changed? It is close to end of my billing cycle and I have been keeping close eye. Earlier today it read around 180mb sent/1.2gb received. Now it reads 90mb sent/980 mb recieved. My last reset date reads the same as before. I don't know if my sync and music management had anything to do with the decrease but i didn't notice the decrease until after I had connected to iTunes and loaded music. I should also mention that a 700mb app automatically loaded itself to my phone during the sync process. Is cellular data used at all during any kind of sync /iPhone/iTunes management? Is the cellular data usage reading under iPhone settings a reliable source to keep track of monthly data usage? Guess turned out to be more than two questions but all related. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer me. It is information I find valuable. Sorry for the book long question.

    1) No.
    2) It does provide an estimated usage, but it's not accurate. For accurate determination, you should check the remaining/used MBs from the carrier (most of the carriers provide this service for free).

  • How to reset paths (NOT missing photos)

    I have created a new folder with all my photos. Within it are individual folders named by year (2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009...).
    I have several old catalogs with photos pointing to different files on several external HDs.  I want to relink them nice and neatly so that they all point to the photos on my newly created folder on a dedicated external HD.
    How can I relink all the photos? I've searched all over the internet but the only information that I can find are those related to "missing photos and question marks in the corner (and not just "resetting paths" as in Expression Media/iView).   I have attempted to FORCE the question mark and relink it that way but Lightroom will not find nearby files. It only finds photos taken on the same day.
    There must be some easy way like in Expression Media/iView to simply reset the path, i.e., manually relink in big batches (all photos in one folder).
    I'd be so grateful for any insight and solutions anybody could offer me.

    You've a couple of routes - for individual images, or for folders.
    With individual images, it depends on the image being missing. If it has a little question mark or exclamation mark in the corner in grid view, click the missing file marker and point to where the photo is now located. Ensure "Find Nearby" is ticked, and press OK. LR will read the filenames of other missing files and try to find them too. This route is no use if the image is not missing.
    With folders, you can right click any folder. You get a question mark if the folder is missing, and right click - "Find Missing Folder". If the folder is not missing, the context menu is "Update Folder Location". In each case you can now point to the new folder location.
    To make it easy on yourself, right click a parent folder and update its location. Its child folders will then be updated too.
    Does that help?

  • HT4798 i created my apple id account, verified but know i m unable to log on, it says incorrect password, i tried to reset via forgot password option but it does not send reset password page to my e- mail address, how can i get this sorted or delete my pr

    User created apple id account, verified but know she is unable to log on, it says incorrect password, she tried to reset via forgot password option but it does not send reset password page to here e- mail address, how can i get this sorted? or how can i get her whole apple account deleted and created new one using same e - mail address?

    The idea to jumpstart by change was not the smartest one, but gives you an opportunity to use that "temporary" account as permanent. You do not have a choice cause obviously despite you thinking that old account is no more -it does exist on Apple servers. And if you are unwilling to share your [email protected] with friend, just create one extra [email protected] for your friend. One suggestion - do not use gmail.

  • IPod model A1059, freezes, unresponsive to all click wheel entries.  Reset does not work.  Does not show up in ITunes or on windows explorer.  What is the problem and how do I fix it?

    IPOD model A1059 appears frozen and is unresponsive to all click wheel entries. Reset does not work.  Does not show up in ITunes or in Windows Explorer.  What is the problem and is there a fix?

    If you are unable to reset the iPod (assuming the hold switch is not in the On position either), then you'll have to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then connect it to a charger and leave it to charge for a couple of hours.

  • My daughters ipod 4th gen will no longer charge past 20% and will not connect to a pc in order to back everything up. the cable is working fine, otherwise it would not even charge to the 20%. i have tried the reset to not lose any data and no luck. help!

    my daughters ipod 4th gen will no longer charge past 20% and will not connect to a pc in order to back everything up. the cable is working fine, otherwise it would not even charge to the 20%. i have tried the reset to not lose any data and no luck, home+power for 10-15 seconds. I really would like to not lose everything she has, again, because I can't back it up this time. I have tried charging via a wall outlet and PC and both charge fine, just only to 20%. I am using the cable that came with it so no aftermarket issues there. Please help so I don't have to reset everything again.

    Because once it has charged enough to be powered on as soon as you turn it on it says battery is at 20% and will not charge anymore after that, it just runs for about 5-10 minutes before the battery dies again. The battery cycles discharge/recharge daily and its not on the charger at full charge for more than a couple hours and is never totally dead for more than a couple of hours.

  • HT3964 Macbook Pro 8,1 turns on during SMC reset, does not reset

    Hi, I'm troubleshooting a friend's Macbook Pro 8,1 - which has faced a number of low-level problems since she dumped juice on the keyboard a few months ago. The biggest problems appear to be SMC related (summarized below).
    When trying to do an SMC reset (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964) by holding Shift + Option + Control + Power, and releasing all buttong simultaneously, the computer simply powers on. If I hold all buttons for ~5 seconds, the power LED flashes, then the computer powers on before the buttons are released. From other articles, this process should complete with the computer staying off for the duration - only turning on with a separate power button press afterwards, which makes me think the SMC has not been reset. Any thoughts on how to properly reset the SMC?
    Background and list of problems persisting despite attempted SMC resets:
    1. The battery stopped charging ~3 weeks ago. It ran fine until the battery died, then wouldn't turn on. We tried multiple chargers, to no avail. Miraculously, it turned on after being plugged in a few days ago, and has been operating mostly normally since.
    2. Since it came back up, the computer does not sleep automatically when closing the lid, though it does manually sleep.
    3. The battery power LEDs no longer light up when the side button is pressed.

    Do you have the power adapter connected when trying to reset the SMC?  That is one of the requirements for resetting the SMC. 
    If the issue still persists, you might want to take it into a genius bar: http://concierge.apple.com/reservation/us/en/techsupport/

    My Apple TV (2nd Gen) won't boot it'a a blinking fool, and Reset does not work... Is it time to by a new WD Live or is it just me? Thanks All..
    If I mess this up ... sorry it my first time....

    I found this after posting here:
    http://trick77.com/2011/02/04/apple-tv-2-with-white-led-flashing-blinking-fast/
    It appears that this is due to firmware corruption and you can fix it by using the micro USB cable and hooking it to iTunes.  I have not tried it yet but supposedly several people were able to resolve their problem this way.  If you do try it, let me know.  I don't have the cable at this time.

    Since a few days my Flame device is not working properly anymore. Every third time someone is calling me, I do not hear any sound, while people calling me still are able to her my voice. Wanted to reset my device today, but the reset is not starting. When I press the reset button nothing happens, while the cancel button still is working. Is someone having an idea how to deal with this situation?

    You need to restore.
    Everything should be on your computer, so you can just sync it back.
