Treo 700w constantly acting like it has a dead battery

I'll start by saying I hope this is the right place for this. Anyway to the problem, I bought a refurbished treo 700w about 3-4 weeks ago. It worked great for about a week, then it would start to freeze often which could be cured by pressing the reset button. Then that would no longer fix the problem and I would have to take the battery out and put it back in and then it would work normally. Well after a couple days of that, I would have to remove and replace the battery several times before the phone would turn on and work normally. Then one day, nothing would turn it on. So I took the battery out and left it out for a few hours and then left it on the charger the rest of the day, (even though it had been on the charger all night). Finally, the next day it would turn back on after taking the battery out again. Well, the next day I picked up a cradle hoping a upgrade to the OS would fix the problems I was having. I upgraded the OS and the phone was working perfectly, It no longer froze every time I took it off the charger. It just worked like I had expected it to from the beginning. Then last night I came home put the phone on the cradle to charge, and now this morning it is acting like the battery is dead again, It won't respond to anything, the reset button does nothing, taking the battery out does nothing, so it is back on the charger again, hoping I can somehow get it to turn on in a few hours. so anybody out there have any ideas?

Does the battery indicator show that it is low? If it shows good battery life remaining, it is not the battery.
Look on the Treo for the software version to see if you need the current update of the ROM software.

Does the app find my ipod work if the lost ipod has a dead battery? will it correctly pinpoint the location on the map??

Will the find my ipod app work if the lost ipod has a dead battery? will it still pinpoint the location on the map correctly?

The iPod must be on and connected to the internt via wifi. It will locate to the nearest house. For location it uses the location of nearby wiri routers that are in Apple's database.

My 3rd generation ipod touch is acting like it has a ghost. when it is sitting there the screen flips between pages, letters and commands are input on their own.

All of a sudden, my iPod Touch has developed a mind of its own. When it is on, but I am not actively manipulating it, it acts like I have swiped the screen or entered characters on the keyboard, or activated an app. It is as if the screen is picking up capacitive input but my fingers aren't touching it. It happens in all apps or just on the home screen, whether I'm holding the iPod or it is just sitting on a table. I have turned it off, restored the software, but the problem seems to be getting worse.

I use my Ipod Touch all the time for work I am a struggling truck driver and Thursday 4-28-11 my ipod started doing this I cant even listen to music on it I am 8 hours from an Apple store so that is not an option for me its like its going in to apps and has actually sent emails it types and just does what it wants to do my wife bought this for me as a gift last FEb(2/2010) so it is not even under warranty anymore I don't know what to do i have tried restoreing it 2 or 3 times if anyone can please help me

Acts like it has a screen saver on it

Hi folks. We have an iPod touch - not latest generation. We can't see the screen. It behaves as if there is a screen saver on it - varying shades of purple vertical lines that fade in and out. I have restored the software twice but to no avail. If I slide my finger across the bottom, it sounds like it is waking up, but I still can't see any icons. It has not been dropped or gotten wet. iTunes behaves as if everything is functioning normally.
Any suggestions? I am attaching a photo. Any ideas are much appreciated.
Thanks!

Try the standard fixes:
- Reset:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
- Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod
If still a problem you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Officejet 8100 acts like it has a sleep mode, but I can't find any controls for that.

It will work correctly one day, but then when I try to use it the following day, nothing works, the power button fades in and out, but does nothing. If I unplug the printer and plug it back in, it will work. How do I fix it so it stays online all the time?

I too was looking for something similar.

HP replaced my unit and cable just a few weeks ago and the unit has a dead battery and cable wont function

No device
HP sent me two replacment cables because after using them once both when plugged in the 2nd time, gave me the screen saying i need to use the cable meant for the device. HP determined they needed to replace my unit and sent me a new one but after again using the cable once then plugging in again to charge and load new books, the unit gives me the screen about using the cable right for the device, I used all 4 cables I now have, all are not even a month old, I even tried the cable the came with the unit when I first bought it. HP now has no email or chat support and I cannot access my pad for my books including text books for college and my portfolio. can anyone help me??

The Pandora APP is installed on my iPhone5 & works fine except when I am in my new car that also has a Pandora APP. The car doesn't seem to recognize the phone so doesn't connect. My iPhone will act like it is playing Pandora as usual but there is no sound at all when I am in the car. What do I need to do?

Hello Mogulman46,
So what that means is when you have Do Not Disturb turned on, you may have an alert depending on the setting and how you are using your iPhone. So if it is set to Always, then that means that no matter what, your iPhone will not be notified. If it set to Only while the iPhone is locked, then that means that you will not get notification when your iPhone is locked but you will get notifications if your iPhone is being used. Also keep in mind the settings All Calls From can be set to certain contacts like Favorites, Everyone or no one. If you are using Do Not Disturb and you do not need it, then turn it off.
Use Do Not Disturb on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

my 5th generation ipod acts like it is going to sync and then "ejects" itself before even 1 song can be synced. It then doesnt recognize that it has been ejected and keeps the"do not disconnect" icon on the screen even after unplugging. What do I do? it also makes a lot of noise while connected to the computer.

Is the camera damaged? Could be a hardware problem.
Try:
Close the Camera app in the multitasking bar, then try again.
Restart/Reset/Restore your iPod. In that order.

After you place the iPod in recovery mode using
iOS: Unable to update or restore
You have to then connect the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes. Are you doing that?

Palm Treo 700W Iwould like to use mac mail as a pop account, unable to send

I am able to receive mac mail messages on my Verizon Treo 700W, however, I am unable to send. I have the outgoing server set as smtp.vzwmail.com - is this correct?
I get an error of "Unable to connect to the outgoing mail server. Verify that the server name is correct, then try again to send and receive mail."
Any ideas?
20" iMac G5, 17" Powerbook Mac OS X (10.4.3)

You will have to change your outgoing server settings. You will have to get an account at www.vtext.com (if you don't have it already). This will allow you to send mail. The account name will be your phone number [email protected] along with your user name and password. It's free to sign up.

That would be fruitless. Palm does not unlock phones, only the carrer can do that!

Is there a way to make the NAS200 act like a drive in my computer

Not sure if this has been discussed here yet.
I have a NAS200 connected to my router and I can access through my web browser no problem.
I was wondering if there's a way to make it act like a drive that's in my computer. i.e give it a drive letter and have it show up in the "my computer" area.
I am running win 8 pro desktop hard wired to the router with the nas200 connected. Is there a way to "mount" the nas200 as drive on the computer.
Thanks,
Bob

Yes, you just need to map the drive on your computer. You need to make sure first that the network drive is detected in the network. You can click on the following link to know how to map the drive:

Mobile account setup stops syncing and acts like a network user

Mobile account setup stops syncing and acts like a network user system under ODM
Setup: Mobile laptop users authenticating against an ODM. Every user has a networked home directory on an Xserve. The whole setup is 10.4 (client and server). All systems run a standard image. Most effected systems have been re-imaged since the onset of the issue.
Issue: Some of the users are not syncing properly every time. It is as if the system forgets it is a mobile system and reverts to using the User's network home (instead of saving to /Users and syncing). If the user is effected, the system will not even accept cached credentials if they are off network. This forgetfulness does not seem to follow any pattern and does not effect all of our mobile users.
In mucking about trying to find a cause to this issue I ran across an oddity in all effected systems Netinfo database. The users are each listed twice. Each entry has the same username, short name and UID. Also, In each case one record looks wrong... this varies somewhat from user to user, but in each case there is marked difference in the record's contents. Deleting the incomplete record in Netinfo manager seems to solve the issue (seems, as we are very early in testing this).
Anyone have a clues as to where this double came from? The only lead so far is that it looks like the users having issues pre-date the use of mobile accounts. At some time they all had local accounts that authenticated against the ODM but never synced or had networked home directories. The pool of users who just got laptops (and thus never had a local account) seem unaffected so far.
Also, what is the best way to browse the ODM master to find these duplicates?

I have a similar issue with computers bound to Active Directory. Users occasionally have a problem logging into their computers even though their account is fine. Logging in as Admin and running netinfo manager always shows duplicate user accounts. Deleting the one that says disabled always clears up the issue. I'd like to find a startup script that would delete the disabled account, thus preventing the issue.
